Because the pizza here is always great we returned after a bad experience with service. This time it was much better. They weren't too busy and we got seated and served quickly. Pizza was great again. They've also added a bunch of local beers.

The atmosphere was great, the food was excellent, and the service was outstanding!

The food was amazing the drinks were great I really enjoyed the strawberry lemonade! The service is the only thing holding me back from a 5 star review! We walked in and there were people looking at us but nobody came to seat us then once we were sat it took probably 10 minutes for our server to come over and another 6-7 to get our drinks (not from the bar) other than the wait everything was amazing but make sure you have some time before trying!

Just don’t understand how people can serve some food and they don’t even have clue what they’re doing. It’s been worst place ever that I’ve ever been experience dining.Don’t know if owner or guy who makes pizza ever tried Napolitan pizza? I couldn’t believe my eyes when they served me as a pizza.Pizza was totally white uncooked,taste like cardboard there’s no what they called leopard marks or nothing pretty unusual.Veggies are tasted like they were pickled. And they change $ 17-20 bucks for something that you’re not even gonna eat. Wish I stop at Papa John pizza and get what I want stead paying 60 some dollars for nothing and drive home hungry and pissed off.

I’ve been here multiple over the last three years. Overall, always had a good experience and came back. Last night we worst experience. Ordered kids tomato noodles, I tried myself before giving it to my kid. It was basically old cold noodles tossed in uncooked tomato sauce. No flavor, ice cold and didn’t get better with a ton of cheese on it. My husband’s pizza was made twice and still black like charcoal. My pizza was spicy despite asking it without red pepper flakes. I am from Naples, and I have been eating Neapolitan pizza all my life. It is for sure not black like charcoal. Will probably not recommend and go back.

I don’t usually write reviews, but our experience at Marquee Pizza was so frustrating, I feel like it needs to be shared.

The service was absolutely terrible from the start. It wasn’t even busy when we arrived, but it still took forever to get our drinks—or even just water. When our server finally came to take our order, she didn’t write anything down, which I immediately knew was going to cause issues (spoiler: it did). It took her at least 10 minutes to bring our drinks after we had already ordered our food, and when they came, they were in completely different-sized glasses. Just weird.

After waiting around 45 minutes for food, we finally got our salads—but they were wrong. I got the wrong salad entirely, and my mom was given the wrong dressing. Trying to get our server’s attention took another eternity. By the time I finally got the correct salad, my mom had already finished hers, and we’d waited an additional 20 minutes just for that.

The waiting continued. Our server kept saying our food was coming, but it never did. Eventually, my half pizza came out… but not my mom’s sandwich. At this point, we were starving and ended up sharing my pizza.

Then came another 20–30 minutes of waiting, and my mom finally asked if we could just pay and leave. The server said “sure” but came back with our check—and my mom’s sandwich. It was supposed to be a meatball sandwich, but there were no meatballs—just two sad little crumbs of meat. It was the flattest sandwich I’ve ever seen.

Throughout all of this, our server kept apologizing and making excuses that didn’t even make sense. Not once did she offer to comp anything, take something off the bill, or even seem genuinely concerned about the experience. And after all that, we were charged full price.

To be fair, the food we did get was decent. But it absolutely was not worth the headache, wait, or lack of basic customer service. I had checked reviews beforehand and saw mixed feedback—most of the bad ones mentioned poor service. I gave them the benefit of the doubt since it was just a weekday lunch, but I was so wrong. This was hands down the worst service I’ve had at any restaurant.

Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.

Great place for pizza and drinks. It's our go-to place before Heartlander's games.

Honest Reviews

Marquee's pizza used to be my go-to pizza place, but ever since the management changed around the end of last year this place has just gotten worse and worse. The food doesn't taste the same as it used to and it seems to get cooked wrong more often now. The servers keep getting quitting or getting fired meaning most of the servers are new so service is often slow and lackluster. The bar used to have creative seasonal drink offerings and a solid cocktail list that was hand-crafted carefully, but now the seasonal offerings really just seem like Pinterest recipes and the cocktails are thrown together by bartenders who clearly don't care. Sadly, I think it's time I find a new go-to pizza place, and I recommend you do the same

I was not impressed. Service was long, and our food was soggy. My fries were also stall as well. Over all, a lot of space, but hardly anyone was in there.
