Marco Polo in Bournemouth

Este lugar es absolutamente impresionante, el equipo aquí es de primer nivel, y la comida es increíble. El Chef claramente tiene pasión y se nota. La comida es caliente y sabrosa, hasta ahora hemos probado la mayoría de pastas, pizzas, lasaña y filete con salsa de pimienta en grano. Gran enfoque en platos italianos clásicos. Establecimiento limpio, las mesas están dispuestas perfectamente y correctamente, este es un lugar regular, seguro que no se puede perder!

Gran restaurante camareras encantadoras no podían hacer lo suficiente para usted nos lo pasamos genial la comida era increíble muchas gracias a todos

La comida es increíble y el personal es tan encantador que te hacen muy bienvenido y es un lugar encantador tranquilo y agradable para tener una buena comida fuera. Honestamente no puedo creer lo bonito que es, por favor.

Por favor, no comas aquí. El personal era tan abrupto y grosero. La comida vegetariana vino con tocino y la comida estaba extremadamente caliente incluso una hora después. Nunca he sabido que la pasta y el arroz todavía estuvieran calientes al vapor una hora más tarde, que es el tiempo que tuvimos que esperar para reemplazar la comida "vegetariana". Perseguimos el plato de reemplazo de nuevo y cuando nos acercamos a la camarera una hora más tarde ella dijo que se fuera, solo vete, solo vete y nunca vuelvas! Esto fue toda una sorpresa e inesperada, pero las dos camareras estaban obviamente de mal humor. Cuando pedí hablar con el gerente, ambos respondieron que ambos somos gerentes! No lo creo. Nos fuimos desconcertados, nunca más. El entrante estaba muy sobre cocinado, las gambas gigantes quemadas y no comestibles y el resto es historia. Villa Toscana es mucho mejor en Southbourne.

Phoned up for collection at 21:10 (they close at 22:00), so I didn't need to sit in, I just needed to collect my food and go. Alas they informed me that the kitchen was closed already. It would of only taken them 10 minutes to do our order. They need to specify on their info that they don't accept orders after a certain time. I could understand if I was phoning them after 21:30 as they obviously need time to clean things down before they leave.

Mi familia había reservado para cenar en un pub en Christchurch, pero tras su cierre repentino e inesperado necesitábamos encontrar rápidamente una alternativa. Alguien sugirió Marco Polo y nos las arreglamos para asegurar una mesa para seis en poco tiempo. Cuando llegamos a primera hora de la noche el restaurante estaba muy ocupado y había un buen ambiente. La comida era muy razonable, el servicio excelente y las comidas eran de la más alta calidad (y muy generoso!) . No podía faltar cualquier aspecto de la experiencia de comer y recomendaría encarecidamente este restaurante. Tiene un encanto simple y rústico y se le hace sentir muy bienvenido.

Mi pareja y yo hemos estado en Marco Polo dos veces ahora y tengo que decir, que ahora es nuestro restaurante favorito. Todo, desde el servicio hasta la calidad de la comida y la relación calidad-precio es casi imposible de superar. Asegúrese de reservar ya que siempre parece estar (comprensiblemente) ocupado. Pruébalo, ¡no te arrepentirás!

A really cosy atmosphere and the food was perfect, the prices were also amazingly good value for the size and quality of food, felt very welcome and had a great experience for two

We went there last night for my granddaughter’s birthday party it was absolutely excellent. The food was amazing. The staff were excellent & so kind . Definitely will be going back amazing little place.

Very good Italian restaurant. The food and service was first class.

Normalmente no hago restaurantes italianos, pero esta es una excepción, la comida increíble, el servicio y el personal excelente ambiente maravilloso. Si nada más en tu vida reserva esto y disfruta Lino len

Love this place, have come here as a couple, a family and a friends dinner, food is fab and service is always great. Excellent Italian and good value, you won't regret booking here 😋

Pasamos la noche en Bournemouth y estábamos buscando un lugar para cenar. Un amigo recomendó Marco Polo, así que reservamos una mesa y fuimos. Las porciones eran asombrosamente enormes ni de lejos como lo que obtendríamos en Londres, el servicio era rápido y amable, pero la comida era tan increíble. Estaba bien cocinado, presentado muy bien y tenía un sabor fantástico. En realidad no puedo articular lo bueno que es este lugar que tienes que comer aquí para creer lo que estoy diciendo. Este hermoso restaurante italiano íntimo pone platos que no solo compiten, sino que también dan clases a muchos italianos de Londres en los que he cenado. Si estás en la zona y qué probar la comida italiana rústica saludable con porciones enormes, entonces este es el lugar sin duda o duda me alegra mucho que lo descubrimos. Definitivamente vale la pena un 2. 5 horas en coche del sur de Londres. 10 / 10 A++++ 5 estrellas pero no se lo digas a demasiada gente

El viaje espontáneo a este encantador personal del restaurante es muy amable y servicial, la comida deliciosa con un montón de opciones y precios muy razonables. Sin duda volveremos la próxima vez que visitemos Bournemouth.

The food was delicious and at such reasonable prices . Will definitely be back soon !

We have been before and this is a local restaurant serving Italian cuisine. The service and ambience is great and the clientele mostly regular locals. The house wine is good value. The menu varied. My wife had Frito misty and I had grilled prawns in garlic butter to start with. very good! For the main course my wife chose the lemon sole and asked for salad instead of veg. This was an excellent meal with plenty of crispy salad. My choice was veal Milanese with spaghetti in tomato sauce instead of veg. The size of the veal escalope was huge but the spaghetti was the correct accompaniment. My issue is that the escalope consisted of minced meat rather than a slice of meat. I was a little disappointed although the meal did have good flavour. The ice cream desert went down well to finish. We will return but perhaps not for escalope of veal!

Food was great service was excellent!

This is a lovely Italian restaurant. We've been here several times. A good variety of food to choose from. Very pleasant service.

Amazing little place. Felt compelled to leave a review 10 mins after leaving! Super service, extremely well priced ( too cheap if anything) Rounded off our 3 day visit to the South Coast in style. Thank you so much

Amazing food and very nice service. We were a family of 7, and my parents and kids all enjoyed a great meal. The pizzas and pastas are so tastefull.

The food was some of the best I have tried, honestly. But the service was very stressful. The waiter (only one) was basically running when she served the food and there were only three tables occupied. Very stressful. The atmosphere was so so, they could have made the place a bit more cozy. Would I come back??? YES, simply because of the food

The food turned out to be tasty, even though the service is not from Italy. The portions were large and tasty, the prices were very affordable, and due to the large number of people, the service was very attentive. Overall a place worth visiting, we recommend it.

Warm welcome friendly service, nice ambiance. Food amazing and great choice. Service was attentive but not overwhelming. Lovely evening spent in this restaurant. Would highly recommend and definitely visit again when in boscombe.

The value for money is amazing. The service is very efficient. The steak with peppercorn sauce is my personal favourite but the pasta is also excellent. Pizza is OK. I recommend this place over everything nearby. This is no.1! Please can we have more dry rose wine options?

Beautiful food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommended! Definitely my favourite Italian.

Food took a little while to get out of the kitchen but once it was with us, it was really good. Our kids had pasta, and I had a pizza which was pretty good (we ran a pizza place until a short while back, so I am hard to please) and my wife had sea bass with prawns and mussels and that dish was absolutely amazing. We'd definitely be back if we are in the area again.

Absolutely delicious and super tender steak with plenty of peppercorn sauce

Lovely food at an excellent price. The service is quick and friendly. My only very slight negative is that the restaurant lighting is too bright. But that is a very minor issue.

Such a cool place, they really care about making your experience one to return to

Good service from the team and genuinely good food in decent portion sizes. We really enjoyed this simple, understated restaurant. My garlic mushroom starter was huge, and the food quality was excellent throughout. MP is very much worth a visit. 2024 - back again and just as great...plus, lasagne was exactly the same price as last year...no increase...MP deserves to succeed!

Romantic atmosphere, superb service with sumptuous food. Perfect combination.

Really lovely food and great service, real authentic Italian dining . Highly recommended

I recently had the pleasure of ordering takeaway from Marco Polo, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. I phoned in my order for four pizzas and was told they would be ready in about 20 minutes. True to their word, the pizzas were piping hot and ready to go when I arrived. The pizzas themselves were a delightful surprise. Each one was perfectly crafted, showcasing a superb balance of toppings on a deliciously authentic base. The crust was just the right thickness, crispy on the outside and soft inside, and the sauce was rich and flavorful, complementing the quality of the toppings wonderfully. What really stood out was the authentic taste that each pizza boasted. It was clear that Marco Polo uses high-quality ingredients, which could be tasted in every bite. The experience was miles ahead of what you'd typically expect from a standard chain pizza. Overall, the service was quick, the food was outstanding, and the whole experience was hassle-free. I left wondering why anyone would choose the Pizza Hut across the street when Marco Polo offers a superior taste, quality, and overall value. Highly recommend to anyone in the mood for genuine, scrumptious pizza!

One of the best Italian restaurants I've been to. Not only great quality fare, but plenty of it. Excellent.

Fabulous food, friendly staff. Amazing little family restaurant. Seafood risotto is awesome. Just can't believe it took me so long to find this place

Fabulous meal, friendly staff, good atmosphere and plentiful servings. I will definitely go again.

Great family run restuarant. Well priced and great food with very friendly staff a really highly recommended place, we will be back with no doubt.

Nice. Good buzz. Tasty food. Friendly

Can’t fault this place. Really generous well cooked and tasty food. Great service. Very reasonable prices. Decor a little basic, but always busy. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent food, very good sized portions, excellent service—— we’ll definitely be returning on a regular basis —- if you haven’t been then it’s most certainly worth a visit.

Fantastic food, excellent service

I have just been to Marcopolo, the food was 10/10, great service and the restaurant is cute. Lately when I go out to eat I feel rushed, starters and food come out too quick almost like they want you to leave. I loved that I was able to enjoy a delicious meal at nice pace and not feel rushed. Couldn’t take any pictures as we sat to exclusively enjoy the food and conversation.

Meal out with friends. Didn't book. (Been here several times before) Food is excellent and good value. Staff are lovely. Thoroughly recommend

Went for a meal tonight with family. It was wonderful food and great service. I will definately go back again.

A lovely Italian and a very clean restaurant. Great tasty food and good attentive service. Clean toilets.

Such a beautiful traditional restuarant. Absolutely loved it and will definitely return. Lovely staff, excellent food that you will struggle to finish due to such generous portions and great atmosphere! Really really lovely place

Good food but very slow service. We waited over an hour for pizza.

The service was OK, but the food was not great. I had meat on skewers, and boy, they tasteless!! The Mrs' main was 'mid', and her starter was even worse. All in all, we wouldn't go back again. Ladies who were serving were lovely.

Went there for the first time with the family tonight. Really friendly staff & huge portions at very reasonable prices. Thank you.

We walked from Bournemouth to Boscombe in search of this place as it had excellent reviews and we had a delicious meal.... garlic bread to start, which was 3 slices of bread, not a whole pizza (thankfully!), followed by a delicious pizza and I had Tagettelli, which was excellently cooked. It was a Monday evening in July and there were 19 people dining there by 7pm.

Absolutely fantastic food! Piping hot and delicious! We were a party of 10 for a birthday celebration. Staff attentive and friendly.

Gorgeous little place, so authentic. The food was to such a high standard, and the portions were HUGE. The service was also excellent. We will be returning.

Really enjoyable local restaurant. Great food with very generous portions. Very well presented, with immaculate tables and friendly, efficient service.

First time eating here and enjoyed every moment. Staff fantastic. Food delicious. Service wonderful. Impressed with the little extra touches that are unexpected like a free liquor to end the meal. Definitely a place to visit again.

I can recommend the lasagne and Marco Polo Pollo, which were both piping hot and extremely tasty. Staff are very attentive.

Great food and great staff - thank you, we’ll be back

Amazing food, atmosphere, and service. I was recommended to have the Pollo Marco Polo dish. It was delicious.

Authentic Italian with very tasty food and excellent service, will definitely be going again, thank you

Excellent food but very slow service

Our first visit and we loved it

Great food and always smiling faces. Good value for money.

We love this place. Great food, fairly priced and lovely staff. We go fairly regularly and haven’t had a bad experience in 7 years or so.

They have no Aperol Spritz,that was a bit disappointing as an italian Place but the food was good and the Staff very kind and professional.

A little gem. Fabulous staff, great food.

Despite being busy an excellent meal and top class service . A hidden gem would highly recommend

Fabulous food and plenty of it. Staff helpful and attentive was a lovely night out thank you x

Absolutely amazing food, service and surroundings. Would highly recommend this restaurant..

Only gave 4 for service but it was a busy night Food fabulous Its 4 days to Christmas atmosphere was extremely festive Staff (there was only 2 of them) terrific Would we go back ABSOLUTELY

Absolutely amazing! 😍 I could not recommend more! Absolutely fabulous place!!! We had delicious fish with shells tonight for my bday meal. We absolutely loved this 😍👌👍 I think it's the best in town! Well recommend! Just to add service is wonderful :))) Thank you for making my bday so special ❤️🎁❤️

A delightful evening out with friends

Booked a table for 6 on Tues 15th November to celebrate the birth of our grandson whom was made very welcome Food was lovely and service was great

Nicest Italian I've had in a very long time. Prices are reasonable and the quality of the food is impeccable. Loved every bite of my spaghetti frutti Di mare and I didn't want it to end. Service was great too. Nothing was too much trouble. Definitely coming back

Not cheap but great tasty food. Really is worth a night out here.

A lovely meal shared with family from around the country-Devon, Jersey and Dorset. Thank you for a lovely evening. Will visit again when in the locality.

Very Nice.! Good Food and Nice personell. A cosy place

Fantastic food and friendly service

Wow! That was lovely. Worth stepping out into the rain for. Will definitely come again!

Nothing special about it. Had a pizza, but nothing major about it. Staff was very polite and friendly.

Very friendly atmosphere and the staff were very attentive..they made our evening very special..

One of the BEST restaurants we have ever been to! We booked into a restaurant down the road and when we arrived, the shutters were down and no one was in. Thankfully Marco Polo were able to take a booking for 9 people at that time and within 10 minutes, we were sat at the table with a drink. AMAZING! The food was incredible, the service was excellent and we all left very happy! (We had four Italians around the table who all said how incredible the food was) Would absolutely return back here again!

Absolutely spot on, although wine prices were a bit on the high side - house red was very quaffable. First time there for a while but definitely will be returning.

I was for the first time, very nice, clean. Very good food, fast service. I'll come back

One of the best Italian restaurants in Bournemouth, a real hidden Gem

Amazing surf and turf with garlic sauce to die for! Staff are lovely!

Nagyon figyelmes kiszolgálás,finom frissen készült vacsorát fogyasztottunk!Bőségese adag, teljes mértékben vendég központú!

Lovely food, owner very friendly as allways.

Lovely warm place. Very efficient waitress. Thank you for the candy😊

Food was very nice although a little pricing

Nice cozy place with warm service and excellent food. I was impressed and so were four other people I was there with.

This is by far one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. In the last few months I have been eating here about half a dozen times. Everything I have tried is cooked to perfection. I'm completely addicted to the asparagus and salmon gnocchi! The pizzas are amazing too, crispy base, fluffy dough and a taste explosion. The prices are very decent and the portions are really big. It's so rare to get both good portions and excellent food. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. Somehow they always manage to find me a table even when they are full. Free sweets and a limoncino shot, too - just as it should be! I cannot recommend this restaurant more wholeheartedly! Takeaway also available.

Nice Italian option, pleased with the pasta-pizza-vino.

Ate here on a cool November evening.Everyone thoroughly their meals. Two of us had the tagliatelle with plentiful prawns and salmon, the other two penne and spaghetti dishes. House red was a decent Montepulciano and reasonably priced.The service was efficient and friendly. We would certainly eat here again.

Tried on the off chance lovely service food good will be going back

Visited this restaurant whilst on holiday in the area and found the food to be excellent, fantastic flavours and great portion size, friendly service and relaxed atmosphere, would definitely go again if in the area.

We was working in Bournmouth and looking for an Italian and came across the Marco Polo.The food was outstanding - Sea food pasta had loads of fresh sea food & the other 3 people with me also a different pasta dishes all which was one of the best they had they said We drank the house red (£16 a bottle ) which was also very good - 4 mains + 4 starters + 2 bottles of re and 2 ciders £90.00 - outstanding valueThe service and the food were outstanding - one to put in the book

Excellent food & very good service. Will definitely re visit.

Lovely little Italian restaurant. Food all very tasty and fresh. Staff all very friendly. Would recommend this restaurant.

Excellent food & value for money
