Papa Marcos Restaurant Reviews
Food was good
Awesome food with great service! This isn’t some chain where you're just another number. Come here and they'll learn your name, treat you like family, and make sure you're full of delicious food! Can't wait to go back next week. I recommend the beryani (not spicy), hummus, and dolmas.
What a delightful place. Friendly, welcoming owner, generous and amazing food. We're just traveling here for an appointment at Northwestern in Lake Forest and stumbled on this place. Always looking for something new and different and who doesn't love Middle Eastern food and they deliver a wonderful vast variety of tasty food. Affordable and delicious and delightful owner and atmosphere.
