About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Chef-driven, artisan Italian nestled in the heart of iconic Larimer Square. Osteria Marco is fine dining quality in a casual setting. We believe in craftsmanship and artistry—pizzas hand tossed to order, pasta hand rolled daily, cheese (like our famous burrata) and salumi crafted on site. Bartenders muddle and infuse; wines evolve to reflect the variety of the Italian countryside and climate. Descend the grand staircase, hunker down and, really... try the burrata. Don't forget to join us for Drag Bingo Brunch every Sunday alongside bottomless mimosas and a scratch Italian brunch!

    With our reservation we were seated quickly. Service was prompt and courteous. Our server suggested only one dinner salad vs. two due to the large portion, which we appreciated. Our entrees were both delicious. A special birthday dessert was complementary.

    We have enjoyed this place for years—well done Italian fare. This was a restaurant week visit. The food was as usual good. My one caveat is that the portions were huge. Way too much for a single person. One restaurant week order would easily feed two. We will have a second meal at home with the leftovers but I’m not a fan of leftovers in general.

    Food was OK as well as a service however there is a 22% automatically included plus another one percent which doesn’t specify what it’s for. So basically be prepared to go and automatically have a 23% added to your check.

    Dinner before the Avalanche game. Best arugula salad in town. We also had eggplant parmesan and the bowl of pasta that comes with it. More than we could eat! Food was terrific and service was awesome.

    Restaurant Week is hectic at Marco, but we went after the Avalanche game (Go AVs!) because the food and service are so awesome. We had the incredibly fresh arugula salad, the consistently yummy eggplant parm, the decadent and other-worldly lasagna, and, after asking for boxes for half our mains, the transcendent tiramisu. Everything was perfect, including the service and the price.
