| - I finally got to try the food at this place. This was the last stop for my boyfriend and me before we made the loooooooong drive to Austin, TX. We thought about our favorite, M&P (I always find a way to work them into a review), for brunch, but with the Steelers and Pirates game going on, we wanted to avoid downtown. This was not a bad second choice.
I ordered the polenta and shrimp and it was probably the most perfect polenta and shrimp dish I have ever had at a restaurant. Everything about it was delectable and delightful. My only complaint was that I wanted a lot more! :)
Our server was pretty cool, though at one point we felt rushed. I get it - it's brunch, you want to flip tables, but as it was our last day in Pittsburgh, we were not to be rushed.
I have been in Bar Marco once for an event and I got to sample their drinks. Just as before, the drinks at brunch were amazing. I love any bar that focuses on natural ingredients and bitters, and that does them well. This place is a great addition to the Strip - in fact, I'd argue that it's the best restaurant in the Strip, bar none (not meant to be a pun there ...)
