What a lovely day at San Marco today to celebrate the Communion of our beautiful children.
Thankyou to all the staff for their great service, kindness and eagerness to please and make everyone feel welcome and comfortable.
The meals were delicious.
All our guests commented positively.
We look forward to going back for dinner.
Tonight's dinner was delicious and service was flawless can't ask for any better, thanks to chef Renee Hayes and Mr. A for a memorable experience!!
Delicious Food the service was great :) would definitely eat there again x
My partner and I had dinner here for the first time last night. I was very impressed, the food was so delicious and the service was great.
We shared a pizza to start, woodfired and thin base! Was so yummy.
Then I had the fish of the day, which was Barramundi with a lemon and dill sauce, fish tasted very fresh and was cooked perfectly, my partner had the home made gnocchi with gorgonzola cheese sauce. We were both stuffed but made room for the home made crepes and were so happy we did! they were amazing!!!! Perfect way to end the meal.
Service was attentive even though they were fully booked out.
Great work guys, thanks for keeping the local food scene alive!!
I went here recently with some friends, loved the vibes of this place. Very homey, felt like you were at the countryside! Could’ve stayed there and chatted all night! The food was really yummy too! Would be awesome on a Saturday night too as they have live music 😍
One of our favourite places to go eat traditional Italian foods for over 20 years from the wood fire pizza to the traditional Italian pasta or what ever other dishes you love you will find here. The best chef in the kitchen will so her best to leave you coming back for more time and time again... the friendly staff will look after you and make you feel welcome like you should feel when going to eat out. This place is also great for all your special functions as I have had my birthdays here and various events so come down check it out.. only 15 minutes from the city just next door to Pentridge Prison with plenty off parking.
I highly recommend this place for somewhere nice, quiet and great food!
Enjoy.....
Great experience for a Saturday night. Our table shared pizzas which were cooked to perfection - traditional bases and toppings were full of flavor. Love the live music too! Will definitely be back
Catching up with friends and this was a last minute selection. Loved the food and the serve. The waitress asked what we liked and knew exactly what was in each meal and made good recommendations on what we should try. Yes, the time between ordering and the arrival of the meals was a little long but that is to be expected when everything is cooked fresh. Ordered the herb bread to start with a shared calamari dish. The calamari were crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside and beautifully lightly fried. Followed it with the fish stew which was more that satisfying after soaking up all the sauce with the accompanying herb bread. The decor is simple and not over the top. Obviously the money has been spend on the quality of the food. A hidden secret in Coburg. Will definitely be going back.

Came here as we were visiting some friends in the area. We had a Pascatore pizza to share as an entree. Then we each had a main - Saltimbocca, Pollo Parmagiana, Garlic Prawns and Carbonara. The pizza was amazing (five thumbs up!). The prawns were fresh and the crust wasn't chewy. I had the Pollo Parmagiana. It was moist and the tomato sauce was perfect to taste. I have to agree with the other reviews that the food was very slow. We waited for almost 40 minutes after entree to get our mains. It wasnt too bad as we were catching up with our friends. I must compliment that the lady looking after our table was attentive and efficient.
One of Melbourne's best Italian restaurants. I eat out alot and San Marco Italian Restaurant is definitely one to put on your list of places to go! Home style Italian cooking, beautiful pizza's and pasta's, all quality ingredients and made with love. I celebrated my birthday here last week, i had a fantastic night, the service was friendly and the venue catered for my large group. Everyone loved it, the food was delish, i will definitely be returning here!
Food, excellent, service, excellent, atmosphere, excellent. This place ticks all the boxes! Would highly reccomend to anyone wanting quality Italian food.
I LUZZ IT
Came here on Saturday nights & was surprised by how warm and busy it was. Service was excellent - very confident & the right level of assertiveness. We tried their Napoli bread, calamari, pizza, pasta & veal & all was excellent. Wine also great & reasonably priced. Candles and guitar player/singer a lovely touch:
Saturday night with a relaxing atmosphere, great guitarist to add to it. Service was perfect - Audrey was particularly amazing. The food was of the best quality, penne bolognese was full of flavour, the parmigianas were generous servings and the chicken fresh and thick.
Recommended!
Brilliant. Have been there several times and food has always been great. One of the few Italian places I'll go out for. Had a lovely seafood platter but looking at everyone else's pasta dishes made me decide what I'll have next time.
San marco makes great traditional food. staff is awesome and the ambience is wonderful.
i had the gnocchi, which were fresh and fluffy and just so delicioius. not too expensive either! a true gem down that end of coburg.
Lovely ambience with fascinating history. Love that there's somewhere great and local to eat in a "I'm not cooking night" ☺. Friendly staff who more than helpful. Cold night but lovely inside with wood fire. Meals were reasonably priced, fresh, loved the home cooked vibe, and caters to all ages and groups.
Delicious pasta. We had the most delish pasta last night. It was by far one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. Thank you for a great night!
Fabulous ambience with beautiful fresh food. Went for work Christmas dinner and had wonderful time. Food and restaurant ambience wonderful. Definitely going again. Just wish they'd have more comfortable chairs :)
Tasty food, good atmosphere, beautiful building. Went here with a friend on a weeknight, and had a lovely time. Don't know why we hadn't thought of coming sooner. The staff were attentive without being over the top, and while there were a few other tables in use nearby the high ceiling and spacious layout kept it fairly quiet and enabled good conversation. Having read some of the reviews we wondered if we should stick to pasta or pizza but we opted for some of the mains and were so glad we did. Perhaps on the pricey side, but very high quality and nicely done meals which left us both more than satisfied. I am looking forward to going back soon!
Great local establishment. What you will find here is good, honest food without the bells and whistles - if you are looking for the equivalent to a basic pizza/pasta bar (ie La Porchetta) then this might be up your alley. Not many of these type of eateries around the Coburg area, so nice to have this on offer. Just don't expect silver service. Ciao for now !
Mdasmi. Lovely restaurant, well set up. We all really enjoyed the food and the staff were lovely. We did have the same issue as some other reviewers where the staff would keep checking if we were done, I took this as being courteous. Food was great, definitely would go back.
This is the first review I have ever written but felt the need to after seeing all the bad press this place seems to be getting. After driving past this place everyday my partner and I eventually decided to dine here when the restaurant we had planned to visit was closed. So glad that we did, the place was amazing. As a family business the service was warm and friendly and the place looks wonderful both inside and out. We went on a quiet/average night so our meals came quickly. My partner really enjoyed his pizza and I fell in love with the Tuscan risotto, so much the I regularly order it for take away (which they also offer). Ever since I have highly recommended San Marco to everyone who will listen and sincerely hope the bad reviews don't turn anyone off eating there.
Casual friendly service. Had the duck tortellini special and antipasto was very filling and flavoursome. Nice quiet atmosphere for weeknight dinner.
Thumbs Up!. I thought that the meals were very expensive for what they were, although the veal is probably the best veal i've eaten. The venue is lovely and the atmosphere was good. The service could have been better. We had to ask for the desert menu and ended up walking to the counter to pay the bill even though the place was practically empty.
1st time reviewer. I have never felt the need to write a resuaurant review before and would like to share my experience at San Marco restaurant in Coburg with others.
I recently visited San Marco for the first time with my wife and 3 children we don't eat out much as a family and eating out is always a special occasion for us. San Marco did not dissapoint. The waitress who served us was very paitent waiting for our children to order and attentive to our needs for the whole evening. We were made to feel very welcome which is not always the case when you have your children in tow!
The serving sizes were generous and the food was superb, absolutely faultless! My steak was of high quality and cooked to perfection. My wife and eldest daughter both had risotto which they rated highly and my son thought his calamari was great. My yongest daughter had a kids meal which was a very generous size.
We will definitely return and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this restaurant to others.
I ordered San Marco’s Margherita pizza for pick up tonight & considering I am not a fan of aussie style pizzas it surprised me that I liked it! The dough was beautiful, crispy but very soft. The sauce was lovely although I do think they overdid the cheese a bit. I’d definitely recommend going in to eat or takeaway. It wasn’t a long wait (5 - 10 minutes) even on Saturday night with a busy restaurant!
My family and I dined here on Friday it’s was rocking , the service was fantastic, the Blonde girl and the pizza boy friendly and attentive. we felt welcome and even took the time to explain the menu. We shared some beautiful divine pizzas and for main course we had Chicken parmigiana ,risotto balls and two risottos Absolutely amazing, will be back again soon 10/10 family was happy
We had an amazing experience at this new restaurant, what a great find! The pasta was amazing and the pizza’s were delicious. The service was also spot on - highly recommend, will be coming back!
We celebrated a special birthday lunch at San Marco. The food was excellent. The antipasto platter and focaccia were delicious as were the pasta dishes and main meals. The waiters were super friendly and prompt to respond to any of our needs. The only negative was that there was a long wait between the antipasto and the entree.
