 I could not recommend more! The food was absolutely stunning! The staff, the service, the atmosphere... Everything was amazing. We live a little bit far away and this was worth the drive. We will most definitely come back many times. To Flo, who provided us our service, THANK YOU! You are amazing!
 
 This is a high class, quality restaurant. The food was outstanding and the atmosphere wonderful. The staff were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about their restaurant and menu. Would 100% recommend and will definitely visit again. Thank you for such a lovely evening.
 
 Excellent food. We both had fungi al aglio to start and pizzas for main. It was delicious and generous portions. Pizzas were loaded with quality ingredients, and the mozzarella was way better than you get at most places (think it was buffalo). Wish we had room for desserts as the gelato looked amazing.
 
 Marco's Italian restaurant in Budleigh Salterton is fantastic. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was first class. I am a ceoliac and there was no problem in serving gluten free food. I would highly recommend this delightful Italian restaurant and we will definitely be visiting again soon
 
 The most amazing place to eat in Budleigh! We have been several times at I would come back in a heartbeat. The three young lads who served us tonight were top notch waiters, absolutely brilliant service.
 
 Lovely meal, relaxed atmosphere and excellent service from Rafe and the team. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome and that the Marcos team were ready for us. Despite being busy the service was great, really smooth and everything thought of. Thank you.
 
 Went for a meal with family to celebrate my birthday. The staff working tonight (22nd March) were all really friendly and checked in on us throughout our time there. The food and drink were lovely too. Would recommend.
 
 Absolutely incredible service and the food is next level. We come to this restaurant at least twice a year and every time the food is spot on and the staff are always so caring, especially the young guy waiting tables who’s so polite. We’d recommend this place to anyone looking for an Italian restaurant with a homely feel and friendly environment.
