San Marco

This was my first time eating at this restaurant. The ambiance, service and our wonderful server David, who explained certain aspects of the menu very well, and answered any questions we had. The portions of each dish were perfect. The food was properly seasoned, especially the sauces. The wild boar dish, bruschetta and the bolognese were my favorite.The owner Frank was pleasant to speak to as well. It simply was one of the best restaurants I've eaten at in my life.

A new favorite! Dave, our server was knowledgeable and helpful. Food was beyond- scallops and tiger shrimp over angel hair pasta was delicious. We had gnocchi and ravioli filled with banana peppers for appetizers. Would highly recommend the ravioli. Looking forward to going back!

My husband and I treated our daughter and son-in-law for a birthday dinner after hearing rave reviews about San Marco. We found it expensive for the quality of food. It was good—not great. Our favorite restaurant is Hutches and San Marco was just not as good. We received bread on the table-no butter. There was olive oil and balsamic vinegar but no spices. Nothing special. We had wine and beer but were disappointed that they didn’t have cocktails. Our entrees were satisfactory. My veal was a bit tough but my husband’s venison was good. I ordered key lime pie for dessert but server returned to say they didn’t have any. All in all-ok restaurant but we won’t be returning.

I have not lived in Buffalo for 30+ years, but had the pleasure of visiting for a Bills’ game with a friend and client to whom I wanted to showcase the food here. We dined at San Marco and were greeted warmly by Frank. The welcome was rivaled only by the food and outstanding service. Everything from the special app to the pasta course to the secondi were excellent. Thanks Frank!

If I could give more stars for atmosphere I would… this is a very comfortable space and it accommodates a lot of tables without feeling crowded. There are multiple dining rooms and the one we were in was magnificent. We loved the floor to ceiling shelves that were used to store the wine and the stone walls. The service was good and we appreciated the relaxed pace. We started with the lobster ravioli and baby shrimp appetizer and split the arugula salad. The salad was very fresh and the portion is more appropriate for 1 person. They also have delicious bread and butter. For wine, we were recommended the Romeo by the owner and it was perfect! For my entree I got the VITELLO DELLA NONNA and it was one of the best meals of my life! They were out of a few dessert options but we were pleased wit
