Finally, someone comes to our table to ask if anyone has given us water or anything and we said no. She said that she would get us water and bread for now and find the person who was responsible for our table. She came back shortly with drinks and bread and let us know that the person responsible for our table refused to serve us. This was 4 years ago and I am a 54 year old half Asian and half American though I portray more Asian and my wife is half Mexican and half Native American. This was our first time there and I tried as best I could to hide this from my wife. I have no idea why this person would refuse to serve us. Also, I posted this after it happened on the online reservation sight and never heard anything back. It truly made us sad and ruined our day so congratulations but I will never walk into your establishment again. This is just my experience. *update 8/27/26 I just received a reminder from them to buy one of their 30th anniversary shirts, so obviously, they never read my review. Don't care anymore

A noticeable decline at Marco Polo Global Restaurant…read more It is with genuine disappointment that I share how significantly Marco Polo Global Restaurant has changed--and not for the better. Having been a loyal patron for years, I was unaware that the restaurant had undergone an ownership change approximately one year ago. Unfortunately, the shift in management has been accompanied by a marked decline in both service and food quality. Service Concerns Table service fell well below expectations. Our server did not introduce herself, nor did she demonstrate any gestures of hospitality throughout the meal. Twice, plates were handed to us stacked, leaving the guests to distribute them ourselves--an approach inconsistent with professional table service. Water glasses were never refilled, and there was a general lack of attentiveness to our table. Menu Changes The menu has been reduced to a simple two‑sided laminated sheet, a stark departure from the former Marco Polo menu that once offered an impressive variety of thoughtfully curated dishes. Food Quality The food, regrettably, did not meet even basic standards: Singapore Noodles: The most disappointing dish of the evening. I shared my feedback with the server, who later reported that the cook had not seasoned it properly and offered to remake it. We declined. Salad Rolls: Flavorless, with a peanut sauce that was thin, cold, and lacking depth. Broccoli with Tofu: The broccoli was overcooked, wilted, and visually unappealing. The dish was marginal at best. Green Beans with Garlic: Cooked adequately, but lacking seasoning and overall flavor. Vegan Pot-stickers: The one bright spot--excellent texture, well‑prepared, and accompanied by a flavorful sauce. Overall Atmosphere The ambiance felt tired, and the restaurant appears to have lost the vitality and care that once made it a thriving local favorite. Based on our experience, it seems clear that both the kitchen and front‑of‑house staff would benefit from renewed training and leadership. Our server confirmed that the business changed hands about a year ago, and unfortunately, the decline is evident in nearly every aspect of the dining experience. We will not be returning, and it saddens me to say so--Marco Polo was once a beloved establishment in the community.

They're also out of silverware, but they rustled up some plastic forks. They didn't sell out, they just don't have any inventory. We had what was available, and it wasn't bad, but also forgettable. Feels like this place has cooked their last batch. Figuratively and literally. I really hope somebody breaths some new life into this location.

Disappointing Experience…read more I really wanted to enjoy our visit to Gambretti in Salem, especially since I remember the great food and service from their old location. Unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to those memories. The ambiance is definitely the highlight--it's a beautiful and inviting restaurant. However, the food and service left quite a bit to be desired. Our entrée needed additional seasoning, and one of my favorite wines from Willamette Valley was served in a water glass, which was disappointing for what is supposed to be a nice dining experience. It seems that the restaurant had only one server covering the entire restaurant, and she did an excellent job given the circumstances. She was attentive and did her best, but the overall service simply wasn't what I remember from Gambretti's old location. I hope this was just an off night because I'd really like to see Gambretti return to the level of food and service that made it memorable in the first place
