Wow!!! We had a GREAT dinner at Marco's Lunch Club. We read the reviews and everyone had great things to say about this restaurant. . . Here's what the family enjoyed at Lunch and at Dinner. Yes, you read that right (long story). . . LUNCH TIME: . Hubby enjoyed the handmade Ravioli di Mare. Stuffed with Shrimp and Crabmeat. Served with zippy Vodka Sauce. . . Granddaughter throughly enjoyed the Grilled Salmon. Marinated with fresh herbs served with roasted vegetables . . DINNER TIME: . . . We ordered the Stuffed Mushrooms. Mushroom caps stuffed with Italian Sausage, Bacon, Onions, Peppers, Herbs and Parmesan 😙👌 . . Daughter loved the Veal Scaloppine Piccata. This had capers in a white wine lemon sauce served with angel hair pasta tossed in the white wine lemon sauce with capers. This was an excellent dish!! We love us some lemon sauce with capers and this did NOT disappoint!!! ❤️ (Whoever stated in reviews that this was too tart obviously was unaware that lemons are used. Of course it's going to be tart. The balance on this dish was perfect!) . . I enjoyed the handmade Agnolotti di Funghi. Spinach Pasta stuffed with Wild Mushrooms and Parmesan. Served with Roasted Garlic Cream Sauce. I've NEVER had a sauce like this before... OMGEEEE it was deeeeeelish!! So much so that hubby and daughter we're dipping in my sauce 😠. . . If you go, ask to sit where Lucy serves!!! She's such a phenomenal waitress!!!! . . Visit Marco's Lunch Club if you are ever in Corpus Christi. It's a...
Read moreWe had a private party here and although the food is okay, the owners wife was extremely unprofessional and tried refunding my money and asked us to have our party somewhere else 20 mins before my guests arrived simply because she was upset that I moved tables to make an entry table, gift table and dessert table for our planned baby shower. This was AFTER I had already gotten permission to do so from another employee. She never introduced herself, she just came up and started yelling at us to stop moving things around in her restaurant. I apologized and offered to bring in my own tables if it was going to be a concern and she was extremely rude from start to finish, even some of her employees appeared frightened by her actions. My guest found a hair in their food and roaches in the bathroom. It was not worth the headache of having a "free" venue while just paying for food. I would never recommend this place for any event or catering. On multiple occasions, I offered to pay additional fees to compensate and she declined. Needless to say, you get what you pay for. Never again. We left an hour earlier than planned just to get out and get away from her. Those poor employees were so nice and apologetic to us, I'm saddened for them to have to endure that work...
Read moreIncredibly disappointing (do NOT order the Veal)
This was one of my worst dining experiences I can remember in my life. Our waitress was probably if not the worst waitress I have had the displeasure of coming across. I don't have the energy to go into great deal about the entire meal. Suffice is say, visiting from Austin, came here with family, ordered the veal saltimbocca, it was basically inedible it was so tough and chewy, told my waitress I couldn't eat it, SAID WE WOULD BE CHARGED ANYWAY in the rudest way possible, mom steps in and says we can't eat it, waitress back talks still in the most ignorant way possible and then I thought my head would explode from anger. I have very low expectations of any restaurant in corpus but somehow this place managed to still fall short. Only redeeming quality was manager was very apologetic and did try to mitigate the situation by offering free food and what not but for me personally I was having none of it. The rest of my family enjoyed their food but non of them got the veal and if you take nothing else from this DO NOT...
