Marco's - Peabody

**Meal Type:** Dinner **Price per Person:** $30–50 **Food Rating:** 4/5 **Service Rating:** 3/5 **Atmosphere Rating:** 3/5 **Parking:** Ample parking available **Parking Options:** Free parking lot I recently dined at this restaurant for dinner and had a generally positive experience. The food was definitely the highlight, earning a solid 4 out of 5 stars. Each dish was flavorful and well-prepared, making the meal enjoyable. However, the service could use some improvement, which is reflected in the 3-star rating. While the staff was friendly, there were moments when we felt a bit neglected, with longer waits for refills and service. The atmosphere was decent but not particularly memorable, which also garnered a 3-star rating. It had a pleasant vibe, but it wasn't as inviting as some other places I've visited. On a positive note, there's plenty of parking available, and it's user-friendly with a free parking lot, which made arriving there hassle-free. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for good food in a convenient location.

Upon our arrival, the bartender informed us that the kitchen stops serving food after 10 PM. Please update your Google listing to accurately reflect your hours. We reached the restaurant at 10:25, after navigating several detours and rerouting multiple times. Typically, I try to arrive at least an hour before closing, but I expected that 35 minutes would be sufficient, especially since we mentioned we would be happy to order food to-go. We had other dining options in mind when we left home, but due to the delays, we didn't have the time to drive somewhere else. As a result, I'm now left with Wendy's. Service: 1 star.

One of our favorite Italian restaurants on the North Shore. It can get quite busy, and the service may slow down, especially when they open the patio. However, the food is consistently excellent, making the wait worthwhile.

I want to give a big thanks to Marco for accommodating our group of five without a reservation! Although we had to wait a bit for our waiter, I completely understand since they were incredibly busy and really hustling. It was definitely worth the wait! I can confidently say that the food and drinks—far beyond just Italian—were some of the most amazing I’ve ever tasted. I can’t fully capture this culinary experience in a review. I just wish I lived in Boston, though I might end up gaining a lot of weight!
