Huge portions, extremely fast and most importantly, amazing food! I had the shrimp scampi and it was incredible! Huge shrimp and amazing pasta. My husband has the Greek Moussaka and he wasn’t able to finish it, the portion was so big.

Just no way to describe it other than, atrocious! The food is way overpriced for the quality you get. Chains restaurants serve up better subpar food than this. We chose this due to the reviews saying it was decent and good. We arrive to find the restaurant pretty baron. We are greeted by a very sweet and lovely server. As we peruse over the menu, we read the story behind the owners. I am thinking interesting and was looking forward to the meal. However, after receiving my $25 dollar plate of lasagna and ravioli it was the salad that was the best thing about the meal served. The sad thing about that was I spent most of the time wondering what on earth was in the Greek dressing. My husband went with the Chicken Alfredo Meal. Disappointing to say the least. We were a bit shocked to find they used both dark and white chicken, and not clean well at that. Sadly though the very odd and mediocre alfredo was hands down better than the Lasagna. It is so difficult to describe just how awful it tasted. Let's start of with how water-logged the overcooked lasagna noodles were. The meat sauce was how I can only best describe as can of stewed tomatoes, very little seasoning with undrained meat grease from hamburger (or perhaps chub from a tube). I couldn't manage to take a third bite for actual fear of losing my lunch so to speak. The ravioli was the only thing that was tolerable, but to was lacking. However, I was ever grateful that it was in a bowl with minimal butter. Cold and old pasta. We paid a heck of a lot of money for the worst meal we have had in decades. When I say Chef Boyardee in a can is better Italian food. Just saying folks. I had wondered if their take on Greek was better, but based off other reviews I have seen throughout the internet ... doesn't seem like it. Do yourself a favor if you are passing through and/or visiting for a few days. Save yourself a ton of money and just go to McDonalds, Taco Bell and or Dennys, which is all within walking distance of Safeway parking lot. The best thing about the experience was the very pleasant server, my ice water with lemon and salad. Not worth $80 plus we paid ...

If you’re interested in big portions of overpriced, microwaved food, this is the place for you. Absolutely terrible. The worst falafel I’ve ever had and my friend’s “gyro” meat…hideous. Avoid everything but the salad and potatoes.

I had a really good takeout dinner here and have no complaints in that department, but the entrees were quite expensive.

We were passing through town and looking for a good Italian restaurant. We located this one in a Safeway shopping center. This restaurant specialized in Italian and Greek foods. A great find we thought. I wanted eggplant parm for dinner. However sizing up the restaurant, I would not pay $25 for a meal without a personal recommendation. I settled for a Falafel sandwich, approximately $15. That turned out to be a smart move. The Falafel came with a very small house salad, my choice. The salad was OK. My sandwich was served. The sandwich contained what looked like two pieces of spicy hot dogs. No Falafel balls, as would be customary for a real Falafel sandwich. The sandwich was poorly stuffed. It was a poor excuse for a Falafel sandwich. I did not eat the "Falafel." The sandwich was terrible. It was worth all of $6.00. Not a penny more. I could only imagine the quality of the Italian food if this was a sandwich speciality. I could not complain because of the other couple we were with. Run, don't walk from this place. Fast food would have been a better choice. PS The waitress was very upbeat, good and very friendly. She was single handedly taking care of the entire restaurant.

Excellent service. Great choices on menus. Food cooked from fresh. Delicious. Plenty of seating. Clean venue. Free car parking. Definitely recommend.

Gyro, kebab, salads and so many desserts we didn’t have room to try. Spag and meatballs is kid approved. The Greek sampler was great, and the surf/turf kebabs were a hit.

Lunch with a friend. The table ordered a gyro sandwich with onion rings, a gyro plate with roasted potatoes, upgrade to Greek side salad and chicken Parmesan with soup. We shared a cannoli for desert. Pretty good.

We were looking for some healthy local options. Unfortunately, the shrimp scampi was served with the shrimp sitting in a bed of oil with overcooked (but hot!) pasta sitting in a bed of oil, with soft garlic bread--with lots of oil. The tomato basil soup was tasty--so was the french onion soup. The seafood linguini pasta was overdone with watery white sauce. Service was extremely good with a very kind and happy gal helping us. She made the visit worth the trip.
This restaurant was empty in comparison to long wait for others. Food was OK.. right out of the Frozen food section of Costco.

We had the Chicken Pramesan. The chicken was good but their marinara sauce was like water. Not at all like an Italian dish was meant to be. Not saying their Greek food is bad, maybe thats what they do best. I just do not recommend the Italian.

We went here for our Anniversary Dinner after other places were completely booked for hours. I was really looking forward to a lamb gyro so that's what my hubby and I both ordered and we split a salad. He ordered his gyro with fries and I ordered mine with fried zucchini. My zucchini was so mushy and gross. Probably from the day before. My gyro hardly had any meat in it and my bread was falling apart from being so dry. It was horrible. I hardly took 3 bites. My hubby's wasn't as bad for some reason. His had more meat and his bread was softer than mine was. Our salad was very good but for $15 it should be right? I was very disappointed with this meal.

Several of the restaurants in town were closed today so we decided to try here. We arrived shortly after they opened and were seated immediately. The food was outstanding and served very quickly. I had the Chicken Bacon Carbonara and it was absolutely delicious with lots of bacon and chicken. We also had the Shrimp Scampi and the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo. The shrimp were tender and there were lots of them. All the portions were quite large and came with delicious garlic bread. We took home a piece of chocolate cake for dessert and it was also wonderful. We really liked that the fettuccine sauce was not as heavy as you sometimes find but was more creamy and lighter. I highly recommend this restaurant for both its food and fast service.

Marlo’s never disappoints. The food is excellent. The servings are large. We haven’t eaten inside the restaurant for a year, but we kept picking up dinners to enjoy at home. Communication is simple on FB messenger with questions. They’ve always gotten right back to me. Everything we’ve had there is delicious. Oh, the desserts are so decadent!
