Good food. Great service. Large outdoor patio seating. Menu has vegetarian friendly options. We tried the baked eggplant, and spinach with artichoke dip. The dip was amazing. The eggplant could have used some more seasoning. We loved their bread rolls.

If you love an Italian vibe with homemade tasting food, without having to cook, this is the place! The wine selection was not huge, but it was nice aswell.

This place is insanely good! We're here on vacation, and this might have been the best part. The waitress was friendly and the enviroment is classy casual. Pizza, soup and pasta was all outstanding.

Amazing!!!🤩 ! We came to Whimberly in February and back again in June, first time our waitress was the owners sister , can’t remember her name but so sweet ! this time we had Hannah. Both are amazing servers!!! So sweet and and attentive. The Food is high quality ingredients !! And we are from New Orleans and we’re so impressed with the food and as well as the service there. Such a cute place! We ordered pizza , pasta , salad and tiramisu . We will definitely be back !

We came to Wimberley to celebrate our anniversary. Came in for lunch. No wait time. The garlic knots with garlic oil were the best we've had. Waitress was Susan. Promptly made dinner reservations for that evening. Hostest was great. Got us in. Dinner was excellent. We ordered the chocolate cake. Our waitress Hannah even put a candle on it. Will come back when visit town again.

We had an amazing dining experience at Marco! The food was absolutely delicious—everything tasted incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the customer service was top-notch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome the entire time. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian cuisine and a wonderful dining experience. We definitely be back!

Great food, customer service last night. Christine was a great server. Try their pizza, really good.

Absolutely recommend 10/10. Staff was the most friendly, with fabulous recommendations on food choice. We ordered calamari, pastas, salad and soup, and all was GREAT!

Food was delicious, service was phenomenal. I would highly recommend the pizza, pasta, and tiramisu!!! We felt like family dining here.

We had a family of 9 come in tonight for reservations and everything was absolutely perfect. Christy took such good care of us. She timed each part of the meal right, never skipped a beat on anything we needed, and was so incredibly friendly. It was a great experience and we can’t wait to come back!

Ordered pizza to go, but we could see the outside seating and it seemed pleasant. The pizza was very good, not stingy on the sauce or pepperoni. The garlic cheese bread is awesome. The lasagna was a bit too salty for us and also had a lot more meat than we expected. I would ratio this down slightly.

Genuinely best Italian I’ve had anywhere near Austin! Very very friendly service and quality food! Going anywhere else to eat in wimberly is a waste of time and money haha. Also recommend chocolate gelato and the tomato basil soup!

Marco’s brings a classic, neighborhood-Italian feel to the table: familiar, comforting, and generous in portions. The interior leans toward the cozy side, with soft lighting and simple décor that makes it feel like a place locals would frequent. What to try: Chicken Parmigiana — crispy, cheesy, and comforting Linguine alle Vongole (Clams) — fresh and well seasoned Veal Marsala — rich sauce and tender meat Caprese Salad — great starter with house-made mozzarella Tiramisu — classic and smooth The staff tend to be friendly and relaxed, making it a comfortable spot rather than a high-pressure experience. It’s a solid pick for family dinners or evening meals when you want traditional Italian without surprises.

We had the best experience at Marco’s while visiting Wimberley for the weekend. We were impressed with the staffs friendliness and hospitality. We felt that they truly wanted us to be there. The service was great and the food was so good. We had the Hawaiian pizza and tortellini with prosciutto. Generous serving sizes enough for my husband and I to share and have leftovers. The restaurant has a cozy, intimate feel. This is a restaurant for families and/or date night, girls/guy trip etc. we will be back when we return to Wimberley to visit.

Very accommodating, didn’t make a reservation, but found room for us. Great service, fast and delicious. Selection is fantastic as well, will be a repeat customer

Marco’s is such a cute Italian restaurant, love the charm it has. Food and service are always consistently great and I love how soft their bread is. Never disappointed when I come here. Our waitress recommended the tortellini panna with added chicken and it was delicious. Also, their shrimp scampi is definitely a plate you’ll be dreaming about days later.

My wife and I elected to celebrate our anniversary in Wimberley. While we took in some sights in the market area we walked past Marcos for the 20th time. Always wondering what their experience would be like. I don't know why we hadn't stopped before. We love Italian food. Well, this time i decided we should try them on. I walked in around 2:00 or 3:00, i don't remember. We made a reservation. Not really necessary as they take walk ins. But being our anniversary, I wanted to be sure to get a table at the time we wanted. They were none too glad to assure us a table at 7:30. We arrived on time and our table was waiting for us with a "Reserved tent on it". We ordered the Lasagna. It was listed as the chef's special. Special was an understatement. It lived up to everything we read on the menu. Our server was a delightful young lady. A full-time student working on here spring break. She treated us like VIPs. My wife was beaming. I had made a great choice for our special day. Our hostess was such an elegant and accommodating professional. When all was finished and it was time to pay our bill, the chef came out of the kitchen to meet us. Wow! Who does that anymore? They do, that's who. We simply can't wait to come back again on our next stop in Wimberley. March 20th was one of our best anniversaries ever and we have been together 13 years. Great job to the wonderful Marcos Italian Restaurant team.

What a sweet place. Unassuming, but lovely. The crab fingers were the best I’ve had anywhere, and they are a go to for me if ever on a menu.

Finally got a chance to try out Marco's. I've been in the area for way too long for that miss. Well, they did an exceptional job of showing what I've been missing out for so long. Just a cute, warm, well executed Italian restaurant. We made reservations, were seated promptly, and enjoyed quality Italian. I can't wait to make up for lost time and try more of the menu. This time I went for ravioli and it had NOTHING in common with what my mom would heat up for me. And that is a wonderful thing. We closed things out with a massive chunk of tiramisu. Highly recommend that item.

The food here was simply outstanding. We ordered the Spaghetti Primavera (shrimp, mushrooms, broccoli, marinara, roasted garlic), a cup of lentil bacon soup, Chicken Piccata, and a cup of tomato basil soup, everything was fresh, well balanced, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The service truly stood out. Nolan provided excellent service: extremely professional, polite, and attentive without being intrusive. From the moment you walk in, every staff member is respectful and genuinely service oriented. The ambiance is cozy and inviting perfect for couples or a small family gathering. The chef, who is also the owner, was very welcoming, which adds a personal and authentic touch to the experience. Even the bread deserves a mention delicious and fresh but again, what really elevates this place is the top notch service paired with consistently high quality food. Because of all this, Marco’s earns my strongest recommendation. Visit without hesitation.

Would definitely recommend this restaurant! Romantic cozy atmosphere and all of their food was delicious! Whitney helped us to our table. She remembered my name from when I called earlier that day. All of the staff was friendly. Lauren was our waitress, very kind and did a great job at serving us. We had 1/2 three cheese and 1/2 margarita pizza to start. My husband got the chicken parm and made it spicy. He really enjoyed it and we both thought the chicken was huge! Big portion, he ate every bit. I got the butternut squash ravioli which was great! I got the tomato basil soup and he got the chicken soup. We ended it off with their chocolate cake for two, was very moist & fudgey. If we visit wimberly again, we will definitely be back to Marco’s!

We went here for a birthday dinner with my family. I had been to Wimberley a few times, but had never been to this place. It was a cute little bungalow that was made into a restaurant. We were immediately seated, They brought out these pull apart garlic knots that were to die for. We opted for Meat Balls and Spinach Artichoke dip. I had ordered Meat Balls from an Italian place before and had them delivered to my house. I never really cared for Italian Meat Balls. These Meat Balls were on point. They were perfectly seasoned. The Spinach Artichoke dip was creamy and not too over the top. I knew I did not want to over do it with my dinner, so I opted for a Calzone. We ordered Chicken Parm and Chicken Alfredo. All dishes were some of the best Italian dishes we have had in a long while. Why I have not been to this place before? When I saw the reviews, it made me wonder why people would rate this place lower than a 4. This place is amazing! This place should have much higher rating. The food, service and atmosphere were top notch. As we left, I did see quite a few folks eating outside. The weather was good and I am sure it would have been nice to sit outside and eat. If you want a fantastic mom and pop Italian place that is quant with great food and great service, you will not go wrong with this place.

We had a wonderful late lunch before the wedding we were attending. The bread is delicious! The carbonara was a traditional recipe. I haven’t been able to get that traditional carbonara since my visits to Italy. Service was great and everyone was very sweet.

I cannot rave enough how wonderful and delicious Marco’s was and the host Whitney was personable and exuded genuine welcoming warmth. The fresh homemade garlic knots were the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere was perfect. The server was friendly and attentive. My food was delicious topped off with an amazing dessert. There was four of us and we were all happy with our food which is a rarity. I will definitely be back. “”Whitney” I am the one that left her keys and was upset about my teenage boy. Thank you again for your words.

I live in Wimberley but for some reason I have never been to Marco's. My friend drove in from Houston and said he wanted to heat there. So my neighbor joined us because she has been to Marco's and loves the food. The place is a little small but really cozy. The service was amazing and the food was excellent. The owner is hands on and very friendly. There is outside seating but since it was raining we sat inside. I believe there is a wheel chair ramp in the back. At least there use to be. Sorry, I should have checked.

The best in town. Absolutely. I've seen lots of places boast about their Italian cuisine but the way this gem is hidden deep in the beautiful town of Wimberley, soft and quaint, and serves the most delicious food is just- I have no words. Even the staff is so kind and polite. PLEASE come here if you ever find yourself in the area or miss out on a once-in-a-lifetime experience. GET THE TIRAMISU 🤍

We were tired after a long day on the Blanco River. Pizza, soda and tiramisu sounded fabulous, indeed it was! Do not skip this place if you’re in town!

We spent a few days in Wimberley for our anniversary and decided to try Marco's on our last night. We both love Italian food, and Marco's did not disappoint. The Tomato Basil soup was so good! If we weren't leaving the next morning, we would've gotten a bunch of it to go! My husband even asked the waitress if we could order it in a 5lb bucket, lol. I had the Lasagna and my husband had the Joana Ana and both were good. The bread and oil were good, too. It was all good, really, but that soup though! Service was great and super friendly. Definitely a place we would return to if we are ever in the area again!

James Fellers

We were lucky and just beat the dinner rush. The inside is small but cozy not cramped. Our waitress was attentive. The food was great. I got the Joan Anna and my wife got the tortellini san remo. My wife said her pasta was amazing but the shrimp was a little plain.

Robert DeLeon

Delicious food, amazing staff and great atmosphere! Had a wonderful experience dinning here after spending time at the local river.

Marco’s was so great. My wife and I went for dinner and had a great experience. Nolan was our waiter and he was incredibly kind without being over-bearing. That dude knows how to wait a table, let me tell you. Pizza is awesome

Marco's is a great Italian restaurant In Wimberley!! The food and wine were excellent and the staff very friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was very low key but very nice. We will definitely dine there again when we’re in the area. Go there!!

We have eaten at Marcos on several occasions. The food is always excellent and delivered straight out of the oven. Salads are always fresh and the desserts were delicious. Jen and Jay were well prepared for a very busy New year's eve night. Our server Lauren was kind, friendly and attentive.

We were greeted immediately, followed by being seated I knew we would have a great experience. The restaurant is quaint and cozy with all the Italian ambiance. We started off with the bread and oil followed by the calamari it was all so so good😋 we ordered the calzone, baked pasta and Cesar salads. Everything was amazing!!! Don’t wait 40 minutes to eat at any other place come straight here.

Excellent service & wine selection! All the pasta selections are tasty, but feel they lack the seasoning/flavor you would find in an authentic Italian restaurant. It would be awesome if they served for seafood pasta dishes, too. However, overall a solid choice for those seeking good pasta. The Chocolate Cake for Two was Heavenly!

This is an old school Italian-American style restaurant in the heart of Wimberley serving up some pretty good homemade pizza and salads. We started our meal with the Mediterranean Salad. It was ample for two and full of fresh vegetables, feta cheese and beets. The accompanying balsamic vinaigrette dressing was quite good too. We then split the 12" Margherita pizza. In lieu of tomato- based sauce, it came with freshly sliced tomatoes. I thought it was a nice twist to a Margherita pizza, but my partner prefers the tomato sauce. Either way we both enjoyed it. Our guest had the house side salad and the lasagna. It was cheesy, warm and comforting. A nice choice for a cold day. Our server, Christine, was friendly, attentive and helpful. She offered a side of tomato sauce to my partner, and never left our glasses empty. I would definitely make sure she's well taken care of as it is hard to find good service in Wimberley and Austin in general. I would definitely come back.

This is the first time I’ve eaten at Marco’s since the ownership changed. Although the food was good, I have to admit that the food used to be better under the previous owner. The bread knots were not as garlicky as they used to be, the pizza cheese had a different flavor, and the lasagna was had too much beef and not enough pasta. For $20+ dollars per plate, I expected better food.

Good basic Italian cuisine. Seaged immediately. There were two of us and we got a two top table. Placed directly under vent, however so it was quite cold. We don't normally complain but asked for better seating. We asked for outdoor seating and promptly got a new seat. I ordered the lasagna and my boyfriend ordered the spaghetti. His was amazing but small portions. I had a large portioned lasagna that had fairly basic taste profiles. Service is a 10/10. Out waktress was so kind and lovely. I enjoyed her laid back and fun demeanor. No complaints about the place, except the tables are a bit cramped inside and it was quite loud and cold inside... But we thoroughly enjoyed our evening on the patio under the moon. I would eat here again and try something besides the lasagna.

We went to Marco’s last night in Wimberley hoping to try authentic Italian pasta. We ordered the spaghetti with meatballs and the lasagna. To start, we were served small pull-apart bread knots with garlic oil on the side. They arrived warm and ready to eat, but after a few minutes they became hard, so we weren’t able to enjoy them fully. When our pasta dishes arrived, my spaghetti with meatballs was very disappointing. The spaghetti noodles were cut into small pieces and completely drowned in red sauce, with three meatballs placed on top. I had to use a spoon not a fok to eat some. I tried to serve myself some pasta onto a small plate, but it was difficult to even find the noodles. Even our waitress agreed and said she would make the cooks aware of the issue. The lasagna looked good at first, but beneath the top layer of cheese there was mostly meat sauce, and the pasta itself was difficult to enjoy. The atmosphere and service were both good, but unfortunately, I would not recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience.

Quaint setting with option to bring your own wine makes for a nice evening. My friends and I met for a meal and were all a little over whelmed with the menu. There’s so many dishes that look similar and differ slightly. It was a chore to read. I ordered the meat pizza and I felt it was pretty salty. The crust wasn’t that great nor sauce either. The meats didn’t seem to be high quality. I almost thought I was served a Totinos pizza for a minute. It was a nice evening overall and the staff is very accommodating and works hard. It was just not my preference for good Italian food. If the locals enjoy it then they are doing something right.

Marco's Italian Restaurant is nothing to crave over. The menu has a lot of options to choose from, but the 4 meals that we chose were lacking flavor. I wouldn't come back to Marco's for the food. The service on the other hand was good. They are very friendly here. I would not recommend this place to my friends and family.
