  Wow, we really loved this meal. We were looking for another restaurant on Yelp that had 4.5 stars but couldnt find it. We stumbled  upon this restaurant and I'm so glad we did. Excellant food and service! Lasangna was one of my wifes favorites on the trip. I had the Fussili pasta with shrimp added and it was incredible! Got a side vegetable plate as well which was perfect combo to meal with a great assortment of veggies. Only negative was they had a very extensive wine menu but I found the prices pretty high in comparison to other restaurants on the trip. They still had a house Chianti by the glass that we thought was pretty good. Highly recommend this place

  I really wanted to be able to say something nice about this restaurant because they started off kind and polite.
  
  AT FIRST: We came in around 6pm with our infant daughter. She is just starting to sit in a high chair and so we asked if they had something she could sit in. They brought out a seat that was sunken in and so she wasn't able to sit up. It was more like she was folded in the back of the chair. Not to mention the steps didn't go around her waist, they only went over her legs. Unfortunately she was very uncomfortable and become upset so we had to leave and find a place with a real high chair.
  
  SO WE LEFT: As we walked not 10 feet down the street the server who had seated us walked past us and said "NICE" and was shaking his head. Now maybe he doesn't have children but if he had been at all understanding he would've realized how unenjoyable the experience would've been if our baby was screaming and crying the entire time. I was appalled that he was so rude when all we had done was sat down (not even ordered drinks yet) and had to leave.
  
  VERY RUDE. We live in Italy and go to Venice often and now will NEVER eat there. We went to a place 2 restaurants down the street.

  Marco Polo was pretty good! The pizza was average but they had a great wine selection. We drank an entire bottle with our pizza and ended up spending about 40 euros. They have nice tables on the sidewalk that make for great people watching too!

  Great find while getting lost in Venice. Food portions was perfect size, the food was good, service was a little slow but again your in Italy were meals take awhile. This was our first dinner in Venice and no complaints.
  
  They have indoor and outdoor area, outdoor is a good way to people watch since you are on a main street area. Prices were resonable and they even had specials. Menu in multiple languages.

  Venice virgins that we were we relied on our walking tour guide for a recommendation on our 1st full day and he mentioned this for a good place for lunch. He said don't let the name fool you it's not touristy. He was right. Our server, Iryna I think, was great and was patient with our language barrier issues. She was very attentive to our needs the whole time we were there
  
  We ordered a cheese plate and prosciutto platter to split in our party of seven as apps. Delicioso!!!  
  
  I had tagliatelle w shrimp tomatoes and mushrooms. Excellent! Wife had another parpadelle w scallops. Another couple split a whole oven roasted fish w potatoes and artichokes I think. Can't remember the rest but everyone loved their food. As we were forewarned, it's tough to find bad food anywhere in Italy and Marco Polo was indeed fantastic. House red wine was good, prices were reasonable it seems for the area and it was a nice quaint little spot.
  
  Would love to come back but Venice seems to have an endless parade of restaurants so gotta go eat some more......see ya!
