San Marco

Great place to dine especially if you are to/ from a Spurs home game. It is a 5-7 minute walk from the ground and a bonus is that you can dine indoors or outside. The restaurant has a good, authentic vibe. The food too is excellent value for money and so is the alcohol. My latest visit today is so much better than my last one a few months ago, I think mainly because the staff were not overun with fans when I dined, so had time for the niceties required when serving customers. Also no confusion this time at the tills and mix up with pricing/ bills. Try the pizzas or the specials of the day washed down with some house wine, beer or cider. All in all a great very affordable experience , especially for hungry football fans. Then again as a fan you can eat greasy burgers/ chips etc from a van at the ground for almost the same cost. I know what I would prefer.

This was a lovely place to eat - a place that provided very hearty and delicious food without being fancy or over-complex. Some sardines as a starter was absolutely delicious and the pizza that followed was both interesting (salmon!) and delicious. The location is also superb - just a moment away from the station.

Myself, my 6 year old daughter and friend ate here last night and had a great meal. My daughter devoured the pescatore pizza with gusto! The lady who served us was very smiley and friendly. The atmosphere was very relaxed and all of the food was delicious. We will be back for sure as we have never had bad meal here.

On Friday evening a friend and I were on our way home from a dinner and decided to stop by San Marco for a glass of wine after having eaten there before and had a pleasant experience. This time was quite different unfortunately. We arrived and asked if we could just stay for a drink and were kindly told by a young waitress that we would have to order food as they only had a license to serve alcohol with food. I asked if it was possible to order food but we would take it home. She went to ask another waitress and an older lady came back and without greeting us, she snapped saying - You cannot just drink here. There was no warmth to her voice. I responded, please could we order a bruschetta then please. She snapped back - No, a starter is not enough. We felt very unwelcome and that she could have spoken more professionally. Working in a customer facing job myself, I understand how difficult it can be when communicating with people, however we only wanted to understand what the rules were as we had not been in this situation before. Unfortunately, it has put us off from coming back despite the excellent food in the past and the other waitress who was more courteous with us. (I am not rating only on this experience though as that would not be fair, but I wanted you to be aware of the feeling we were left with)
