    oh I am so sad to post this but it's necessary. We were so excited to go back to Marco's after our first experience, on our Valentines dinner. However, I am so so disappointed and will not return. We had no attentions at all...we ordered salad and then dinner with order of drinks prior to that. There was no interaction, no offer for any pepper even for the salad and no reorder for drinks. Our food was overcooked although I asked for my filet mignon to be medium rare, it came medium at best (no pink in middle) and there was NO attempt to even ask how our food was AT ALL until a dessert menu was shoved at us.. as if we would even order dessert after getting no attention. HORRIBLE. Will not return and so disappointed. Darn it we like LaGrange and there are way better restaurants for the time and money to go to.

    Overall, is was fine but nothing extraordinary. We spent over $300 and had wine, an appetizer, two meals, and dessert. In my experience, I have come to expect better service from a higher end restaurant. We ordered the escargot appetizer and I wasn’t sure if what we ate were mushrooms or escargot. It would have been nice if the server to provided any level of detail when he served the dish. We had the Mahi and Filet. They were fine - probably about average but nothing spectacular. I don’t expect to be back as I can get better tasting food and better customer service elsewhere.

    Pleasant ambience, but the food and service were a little uneven. By and large, we enjoyed our entrees and appetizers and the attentive service we received early on, but the kitchen doesn’t seem to give much thought to sides - note the proliferation of a rather dull “vegetable medley” as the designated side on more than half the entrees. The duck breast (which I enjoyed) breaks the mold a little and comes with a carrot side which made up 1/3 of the plate, but was basically flavorless and tasted rather like it came out of a freezer pack. I would have loved to give some respectful feedback directly at the time, but after delivering our food and checking on our drinks, our waitress disappeared for the rest of the meal and all our further interactions were with the bus staff.

    LOVEDDDDD THE DRAG BRUNCH! SO ENERGETIC! My friends and I had such a fun time! There could have been a bit more of the Moulin Rouge music for the theme of Moulin Rouge, but other than that, the girls were FAB! The food was good, but would have loved to see the menu prior to determine if it was possible to swap an item out as one of my friends was pregnant and also had a sensitivity to walnuts, so she couldn't eat the salad. The ambience was so elegant though and the bottomless mimosas were perfect!

    Food was great. Service was okay. It was cold. Despite been far away from door. The potatoes were like butter. The liver pate was tasty and the Filet Mignon juicy.

    We had a lovely evening at Marco’s Kitchen. The space is intimate and beautiful, staff are friendly and efficient, and the food is outstanding. Our server, Joanna, helped guide us to make our menu selections and paced the entire meal perfectly. Menu standouts were the lump crab and polenta cakes, chicken liver mousse pate board, soubise, lamb chops and sabayon. But, honestly, everything we tasted was delicious. Thank you, Marco and staff!

    Marco’s Kitchen was amazing for the food, service, and ambiance. We celebrated my Mom’s 75th birthday there and they brought over a dessert (which was delicious!) but did not make a fuss, which is exactly what we wanted for her. She does not like being the center of attention. The drinks were outstanding as well! We will definitely be back!
