“With chain pizza restaurants I believe either you like their 'style' of pizza or you don't. In the past I've learned I don't like Marco's style as much as other chains but I do want to give them kudos today.

We were going to a friend's and they wanted to cater in Marco's from this location so we offered to pick it up on the way.

They were quick, they were friendly, it was super hot 🔥 and for as many item as we picked up reasonably priced.

If you live near this location and like it Marco's style I would recommend you order.“

“We're visiting Knoxville and were looking for a nice Italian meal. This place didn't disappoint. We were greeted by friendly staff and got a few suggestions. We started with cheesy bread, perfection! The dough was good with a nice chewiness, lots of cheese and garlic. I had a ham calozone and it was cooked perfectly, that great dough, real ricotta cheese and seasoning, a nice robust marina on the side. My husband had the tortellini with meat sauce and garlic bread. The pasta was the perfect. We both had the recommended tiramasu, this is the star of the show. I have never tasted such wonderful food. We each had a fountain drink and all together was only $50. Service was phenomenal. I'm sad to go home because I know I have nothing close to the quality of this place. Absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. We'll be heading there again tomorrow for lunch so we can have it one more time before leaving Knoxville.“

“Nice Italian for East Tennessee“

“A friend brought a large pepperoni and hamburger pizza over.. and it was absolutely was the best pizza I have ever ate!! Highly recommend!!“

“My family buys a lot of takeout or delivery from nearby restaurants. I didn’t order anything from Carrabba’s for a long while as I wasn’t completely satisfied with the food quality, but recently purchased takeout several times and the food was excellent as well as the online ordering and the pick up procedure.“

“Went there when I was recovering from cold. I was having hard time to order. However, the server was nice and took my weird order of having just a soup and tea. He brought the tea with loaded ice. I explained and he gave me hot tea instead. The Italian weeding soup was the best. I was craving for a second batch. The interior of the restaurant was nice. The washroom need a bit more privacy. Overall great for lunch or dinner.“

“We just served our Holston Middle school staff Fazoli’s for their staff lunch and they did an amazing job! Food and service was excellent, this is definitely a go-to in the future for other lunches. Thank you!!“

“My wife, our two sons and I had dinner here on Father’s Day this year. We were welcomed to the restaurant by the manager who was acting as host. He provided us with some kids’ menus but apologized for the lack of crayons. We were served by Elijah who did a great job getting our drinks and breadsticks as well as taking our order. Elijah actually returned to our table to advise us of possible cross-contamination affecting our sons’ orders (they have food allergies) so we opted for alternatives for them. We appreciated how attentive and informative both he and the restaurant were. Indeed the manager who helped bring our food also emphasized the allergy free dishes for our our children. Our food was brought in a timely manner and while my lasagna tasted alright my wife’s chicken alfredo dish tasted like it had been cooked earlier and then reheated as the chicken was “rubbery” (we had arrived at the restaurant around 7.30pm and the restaurant closed at 10pm so the food should have been of a better quality). The boys’ spaghetti dishes were fine. In terms of the customer service we received from both our server Elijah and the manager we couldn’t have asked for any better. However, unfortunately, my wife’s meal was below acceptable standard so I cannot give an overall 5 star rating due to the 3 star food rating.“

“Love Gondolier 🥰 My family have been coming here for 30 years“

“Excellent food, every time. Service has always been great. This is one of our favorites in Knoxville.“

“I am truly impressed by the level of service we received today.

The young gentleman who attended us, slim, wears glasses, and looked almost like a teenager (unfortunately I did not catch his name), provided one of the most outstanding customer service experiences I have had in a very long time.

His knowledge of the menu was exceptional. He was able to describe items in remarkable detail, almost entirely from memory, and his recommendations were spot on. Beyond that, his communication skills, professionalism, and willingness to help were simply on another level.

It is rare to find someone so dedicated to creating a great experience for guests. He made us feel welcomed, valued, and genuinely cared for throughout our visit.

Blessings to him, and thank you for serving us with such excellence. Your attention, attitude, and commitment to customer service did not go unnoticed. Keep up the amazing work!“

“My wife and I had lunch here this afternoon with our 7 month old daughter. I did not happen to catch the name of the waitress who served us but her service was over the top exceptional. We truly were blown away by how attentive that she was. She was more than prompt on getting us everything - bread, drinks, our food, as well as to go desert and drinks. My wife had to take our daughter out to the car because she started getting fussy due to it being her nap time and the server helped me bag everything up. The food was hot and fresh. We have zero complaints! This was a very good dining experience and we will most definitely be back! Thank you!“

“Just tried this place for the first time and it's ahhhhmazing!!! I'll definitely be back!! Mouthwatering food for sure!!“

“Stopped in while in the area for an early dinner. The gentleman that met us was friendly and personable. The calzone was delicious and huge! (Note: the calzone does not have ricotta in it, which is the way I like it, so I was happy!) the manicotti was delicious and a very large portion. All in all, delicious food and a friendly greeting plus the portions are large enough to make two more meals at home. We will be back!“

“This is by far my favorite chain pizza place.

I usually pick up my order because it’s so close, and the staff is unfailingly polite.

The deep dish pizza is our go to, and regardless the topping combo, it’s always good.“

“worst experience I've had in my entire life especially in a "professional environment". was degraded, talked down to, yelled out, and just flat out treated like crap!! I will tell everyone I know, make posts everywhere, and never recommend this place in my life. I will talk against you all and do everything in my power to have this terrible place removed from this city and cannot wait until the next city council meeting so i can inform everyone of this disrespectful and disgusting mannered place and the employees! I cannot believe Marcos pizza allows their employees to talk to and disrespect people as they have shown today! completely disgusting and just a disgrace to this city and all it stands for!“
