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.

I have had a lot of bad Thai food and a lot of good Thai food and this was perfect and exactly what I hoped it would be. Family operated and locally owned. Love that. I see people complaining about the price and it's truly worth every penny plus tip! This food is FRESH and cooked to order. You get what you pay for when it comes to food and I am happy to pay for fresh food like this! They had many healthy options and this is authentic Thai. I think people forget that food trucks are restaurants too and so it takes time for your food to come out... it's worth the wait. I appreciate that the heat level was customizable on the papaya salad as well! Could definitely go up a spice level but was cautious because Thai spicy can be on another planet. So anywho... I would bathe in that tamarind sauce if they let me buy it by the vat. It was phenomenal. Im a fan! Can't wait to go back and try more things!

Having moved to Salem recently from Portland, I thought that I had seen every iteration of what…read moreThai food could be but boy was I wrong. Big Blue Thai BBQ is everything that I could ever want from Thai food. Our main dish was the Grilled Pork and Papaya Salad combo and it was absolutely addicting. The beautiful smoke on the pork from the charcoal grill complemented perfectly with the spicy, tangy papaya salad adding so much freshness to the dish. While the food was amazing, the real star of the show were the lovely people that operate the truck. They were both so genuinely friendly and welcoming and made our experience exponentially better. We only wish that we had found this place sooner.

We got the rainbow poke, which had lots of salmon, tuna, and avocado in addition to a number of veggies. Not on the menu was also a good amount of mango for a hit of sweetness. It was all high quality. It was a huuuuge bowl, too. Definitely worth the $18 considering how much similar quality bowls would go for. There are bento entrees. We got the chicken katsu curry bento, which had a solid portion of chicken katsu with a simple, yet flavorful, Japanese curry along with miso soup, a salad, fried dumplings, and rice. It was a healthy portion of food, and I had to take home half of the chicken and rice. There are also a number of appetizers, donburis (rice bowls), and ramen. The Japanese-style cheesecake for dessert was light, inexpensive, and a good way to end the meal. Not too sweet, iykyk. The family that runs this place is super sweet. They were friendly, attentive, and timely. This would be a great place for a more casual date or a solid bulk meal for all the food you get.

They delivered on the heat, that's for certain. But, they gave me the broccoli as a side with no sauce. When I took the bowl of broccoli and dumped it on my plate to join the chicken, then there wasn't enough sauce for both ingredients. There is no way I could have been any more clear that I wanted it all together, so I don't know what happened there. Food was 5 stars, execution thereof was 3 stars, so here we are at 4 stars total.
