Marco’s New York Italian

Nice place and nice food although it's as good as we had the day before in Pizza Express. Very quiet atmosphere but for me, I prefer a bit of noise, laughter, organised chaos, and seeing people rushing around. A nice place if you want to eat correctly- meaning not shouting when talking with each other, and not stretching across the table to try your friend's food, and telling stories that will make you laugh out loud. But, it's posh nosh although we had the cheaper menu. The place just feels it needs a bit of life, upstairs anyway where maybe the cheaper menu customers are put.

We visited the restaurant for a 3 course meal with bottomless prosecco on a Thursday evening at 5pm. Whilst we had to wait 10 minutes to be seated as they weren't officially open yet, the staff we very attentive once they started service and the food, oh my goodness. Portion sizes were just right and the food was SO tasty, it was cooked well, served hot and we didn't have to wait long in between courses either. Our bottomless prosecco was topped up quickly for the full 90 minutes too. The whole experience was lovely and whilst the outside of the restaurant could be prettier, don't let that put you off, it's well worth it 😁. A side note, it doesn't say on the menu but the wings are hot!!

We did a Buy a gift experience for two, so was a set menu which came with a prosecco drink. It would be better to ask if anyone would prefer non alcoholic drinks instead. We weren't asked a preference. Very disappointed with the small restaurant and uncomfortable chairs. Server's kept banging into our chairs as no room so off putting. Food was OK nothing to different than a Weatherspoons offering however. Plus a bit out of the way. Disappointing as we've been to other locations and had better experiences.

We went here as part of a voucher along with the View from the Shard. After reading reviews, we were a bit concerned but couldn't have had a more different experience to the poor reviews on here. The food choices were good and food was tasty. The thing that made our evening was the staff. They were incredibly polite, welcoming, kind and went above and beyond with our 11 month old baby. They were just excellent!
