I came in this morning, I can truly say I have found my NEW spot! I have been here in Florida…read moretrying different Italian restaurants and haven't been satisfied with any of my experiences. This Restaurant, has friendly staff, a humble and kind soft spoken Owner. When I started reviewing on other platforms I was dedicated to One Italian Restaurant that I worked in until eventually moving here to Florida. The staff is very attentive and helpful. Today I ate the Chicken Francese, they give you the option of Garlic Knots or Garlic Bread, I chose the Garlic Bread but I think either way I would have been happy with my decision. I was very satisfied with the Chicken, it was well seasoned and moist which can sometimes be an issue in other establishments but it wasn't today, not here. It was amazing. The pasta with the lemony white wine sauce was to die for. I came in at 11, right at opening, the restaurant was quickly filled with many customers and I can definitely see why. I will 100% be coming back here. I write this now at almost 6pm and I haven't stopped thinking about it since I left. 10/10

I recently moved to the area and after having Papa John's once I said I would never have it again…read more I was recommended Marco's Pizza by several people and decided to give it a try. They are offering curbside pick up so I definitely used that feature as I had my two little ones with me. I ordered it online and if you order online you'll see that they have deals for doing so. I paid about $35 for two large pizzas, 10 barbecue wings, cheese bread and a 2 L soda. You cannot beat that kind of deal. Upon arriving I did call to ensure that they were still doing the curbside pick up And they assured me that they were and that they would bring out my pizza shortly. I was only waiting for a few minutes but as soon as the worker came outside she apologized so much saying that she was sorry for the wait. Honestly I could tell that they had a lot of people inside and I really just did not wait that long at all. From the time that I ordered until the time that I got my pizza it only took them 30 minutes to make the whole order which is great for such a large order and considering the amount of customers they had inside. They showed extreme professionalism and were very kind. I made sure to take photos of the food because let me tell you it looked so good and after eating it, wow I will definitely be returning. All of the food came out amazing and fresh. I will definitely return soon!!

We finally stopped in for a slice while visiting downtown Lakeland, and wow... I'm kicking myself…read morefor not coming here sooner. I'm usually not a fan of pizza by the slice, but I kept an open mind--and I'm so glad I did. My wife ordered the chicken Caesar slice and I went with the meat lovers, and hands down, this was the best pizza I've had in the five years I've lived in Lakeland. That's how good it was: the moment we finished our slices, we immediately ordered takeout for dinner later that night. We got the chicken broccoli pasta, cheese tortellini, and a Stromboli that was literally the size of a large pizza box. Everything was absolutely incredible--even after reheating at home, it tasted fresh and amazing. This place completely exceeded expectations from start to finish. Incredible food, generous portions, and clearly made with care. I can't wait to come back and work my way through the menu. Highly recommend--this spot is a must-visit. Service was super fast and the atmosphere is pretty chill. It does get extremely busy. They do have a really nice seating area outside on the side of the building. It's somewhat secluded or you can sit in front of the restaurant to see the happenings downtown.

The candied apple burger, and Parmesan truffle fries both served with a unique garlic aioli were incredible! She pairs her queso with freshly cooked flour chips that melt in your mouth! Finally we tried Pizza Odyssey for an amazing pizza! Great amount of cheese on the Alfredo we tried! They were out of bacon that normally comes on it so we substituted for pepperoni. Chicken was soft and seasoned well! This place has a cool vibe, mid level music which still allows for a cozy conversation, there is also a bar so you can get some great spirits if you like! All the people we interacted with were very nice and the service was prompt!

I am so sorry I was really looking forward to a wonderful food experience however when my friend…read moreand I went in for the first time over the weekend we were not that impressed. It felt & looked like a ghost town and the food we purchased from the Asian / Thai place was not that good especially for the price. When we got the text our food was ready , we asked for napkins, and the girl told us they were available around the corner towards the bar... really? For the price we paid you couldn't give us napkins that were sitting there? We were only allowed the ones that came in the utensil wrap when a pile of extra napkins were just sitting there next to it after we spent over $35 dollars is not good customer service. The crab Rangoon tasted like it was purchased from the Costco freezer section when you want a fast hors d'oeuvre to have for an at home party. It was dry and tasted old. Actually Costco's tasted better. The Pork Bao bun not good the pork is supposed to be a little crisper, and mine was soft and barely cooked. I only ate one bite. Also ordered the dumplings. They were just decent. We also ordered a smashed burger from Fat Maggie's and asked for the works only to have received the text our burger was ready. We go up to get it and it's just the burger sitting there. I had to ask the girl to get us the works we asked for. Not sure why it wasn't all ready for us when it was a simple one burger order and they were not busy. The burger was good but with a smash burger, it's hard to get that juicy medium burger enjoyment as the burger was crispy on the outside. No fault of Maggie's that's just the trend it was still good and it was nice someone walked around asking everyone if they liked their burger. You deserve more than to be crammed at the end of the kitchens and should move to the middle into the larger space as it gave the illusion that you were not as famous as you are and that you're a tiny business when you're not. Kudos on your great tasting burger though. Now to the building, i feel bad the joinery has the lake to walk around and a great outside area for IG influencer pics back drops where you can relax and sit back with style I did not see that here at this location and since there is no lake to look at you truly need more outdoor aesthetics like a "lawn" area with outdoor games for people to hang out at or more of an amateur works greenery outdoor vibe or host, Pilates and yoga classes to draw more ppl in. It needs something. Sorry this was long it just had to be said imo anyway and my girlfriends.

- A cheesesteak aficionado speaks! - - And I am…read morenot a purist! - I screwed up! This is one of the finest Italian/Pizza/Sub shops in the area and I've never talked about their awesome cheesesteak! This review rectifies this. Customer Service- So I blew into order my cheesesteak to-go. The young lady at the counter was a little chatty as I am and just fine. It took me maybe two minutes and my sammich was out in about five more. No choice but five stars! Food- So they bake their own rolls here which is a big plus. The gold standard for cheesesteak is an Amoroso roll from the Philadelphia area. These are not that but very good. There was plenty of tender meat with no fatty pieces. Good stuff! Here they add peppers onions & mushrooms, and I have no problem with that, and they were tasty. They use White American cheese, and it was tasty and there was plenty of it. Now for something weird and wonderful. A couple of years ago a good friend asked me to try adding pepperoni to my cheesesteak. I did and it was awesome! I've been doing it ever since and this time it costs me an extra buck. The basic sandwich is $11.99. I brought this bad boy home, and you can see my picture. It was an excellent filling cheesesteak, and I love supporting a local business. Five stars!
