Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Mangia bene!

Delicious food and fantastic service at this upscale Brooklyn Italian spot. A nice wine list and good stiff drinks. Fried artichokes, oysters Rockefeller, and burrata with prosciutto for appetizers were all excellent. Burrata was the winner. The house pasta made in the cheese wheel was...amazing, but the entrees were all excellent. Our waiter was friendly and professional as was the entire staff. Tiramiau, affogato, creme brule, and chocolate mouse all made in house and all were great.More

Neighborhood Gem since 1983

This was our first time at Marco Polo but it won't be our last. The overall atmosphere was relaxed, the staff friendly and the food excellent. We ordered a caesar salad (with their original 1983 recipe) and the artichokes to start and I had the...chicken scarp. My chicken dish had large pieces of moist chicken with slices of sweet sausage. All in all a great experience.More

Always a great meal at this Brooklyn mainstay

Have been going to Marco Polo for some years now. The food is always wonderful and the service is great. They have valet parking, which is certainly a plus. We recently organized a group of (20) for a Sunday midday lunch. Even though we were...a large group, the service was impeccable; water constantly refreshed and drinks (both wine and mixed drinks) were outstanding (try the Aperol spritz, delicious summer drink). Certainly worth the visit!More

Marco missed polo

Quiet business setting for lunch! Valet car service! The menu didn't wow me & doubt I'd return. Upscale dishes w/o an Italian taste.

Don't Go!

This restaurant was recommended to me by a friend that knows the area. I guess the mistake was that we took the recommendation. We were a party of 16, 5 separate families. The waiter refused outright to do separate checks, and also refused to take...multiple forms of payment. An instant turn off. We had several very well behaved children with us and asked that their food be brought out ASAP. The waiter once again seemed completely unwilling to accommodate. But he was very quick to offer more drinks. The drinks were over priced. My martini glass was 1/2 full and drink was weak. Oh ya, still no food for the children, and when it finally came out, they forgot who got what and forgot 1 order. The portions even for the kids were SKIMPY!!! I told my son to just eat more bread. The entrees were not up to our expectations at all. Still wondering what all the hype was about this place. VERY DISAPPOINTED.More

Incredible Food... Great Service

Brooklyn has no shortage of Italian restaurants, but Marco Polo is one of the BEST! Huge wine selection...terrific cocktails... phenomenal menu...very friendly, competent and attentive staff. Exquisite pasta, phenomenal seafood, veal that cuts like butter... This is the perfect place for an unrushed, fine family...dining experience.More

Amazing authentic italian

Our new clients recommended this place for team dinner. Wow they were spot on. Food was superb! The fettuccini pasta with wine and cheese made table side was amazing. Get it as an appetizer for the table - The lobster ravioli has such a great...sauce and filling. We got the ricotta appetizer and some great hard cheeses and italian meats. The prawns with risotto was yum! every one of our plates was clean and then they brought out chocolate pizza dessert- omg so good. Definitely try this place. Loved that owner came over to chat and check in on us along with his son who was chef.More

They have valet parking, as I recall, but confirm with them. It’s a valid concern in thriving Brooklyn!
