Marco Polo Restaurant — Restaurant in Strasbourg

We choose this restaurant as it looked cute and next to a dockyard. The website does not have an English option, The waitress spoke English which is a plus if you don't speak French, there was also an English menu which we didn't get for what ever reason. The dog was welcome.

We ordered a white wine and bruschetta, the glasses were dirty as anything and black specks flouted in the wine. The waitress said they only clean with water, which is fine if the dishes are actually clean.

The bruschetta should have come with ham but this was either forgotten or they were out of ham, the pizza oven was broken, thus no pizza or flamkuchen.

Carbonnara was ordered, together with chicken and a vegan like dish. The Carbonnara was fine, the other dishes were bland and tasteless. The front says open at 18:30 but it's actually 19:00, we left at 21:30, it took them over 2.5 hours for 2 appetisers, 3 main courses and 3 basic AF ice-cream.

I wish this establishment the very best for the future. Sad too see such a great location and pretty good service is pulled down so hard by all the small things that would not make...

The Restaurant itself is a beautiful place, the first impression was really nice. We were the first guests for around 1hr, the location was empty - the waitor told us, the chef is missing and can't come today bcs of traffic - he's sorry and we probably get no food. After 5min the waitor came back and told us, he could find another chef to come and cook. So we could order our food now. When we got our food, I was a little bit disappointed (maybe bcs of another chef/ cook?) bcs of the low taste-intensity of my calzone.. you know there are a lot of restaurants in the area.. all in all we've paid around 120,-€ for 4p. to get average food, nothing special in a nice-looking location and with a moment of "okay - it's possible that we can't order any food". I know it's not the waitor's fault, he was actually very friendly, but tbh it's not what...

I am so thankful we live 2.5 hours away because believe me I will drive down to this restaurant from Germany to eat their Tagliatelle Salmon again. My husband and I instantly loved the restaurant the second we laid eyes on it. Was such a perfect little spot for our dinner date. I will be honest, the 3.6 rating on google didn’t set our expectations high. We were prepared to have a quick meal in a pretty restaurant with average food and service. But man we were surprised! Firstly, the restaurant is indeed just as pretty and cosy as the pictures. Secondly, the service was so wonderfully friendly. Lastly, the food wasn’t extraordinary but perfectly tasteful. You know someone in the kitchen is making them with passion. I sincerely can’t believe their rating is this low because in our experience they deserve nothing...
