| - Dining at Marco's is the ultimate for a neighborhood Italian restaurant. It is a small venue tucked out of the way from the noise of the city. It is somewhere locals go because it is excellent food, prepared with excellent ingredients, cooked by the chef/owner, and presented with homespun pride.
Marco, the owner and chef, oversees each plate, and then follows up his creations with a personal visit sometime during your visit. He is always genuinely interested in whether you enjoyed your meal and your suggestions for future visits. If there is something special you would like, he would like to provide it. And yes, if you have an interest in Italy or are from the Home Country, he LOVES to talk with you about your experiences there.
You can tell this man is totally vested in his craft and his business. Yes, sometimes they get busy and sometimes mistakes happen, but this restaurant is not a production line corporate model. It is a very good neighborhood Italian restaurant owned and operated by an Italian guy who loves what he does.
Oh, and call ahead a day or two before you go and ask Marco to have some clam chowder made for you. You won't believe it.
