“It all about the dumplings ? go now and get you some!! These are the best ever just be careful not to eat them too quickly as you may experience the removal of the skin on the roof of your mouth ? so please use caution but after a few minutes to cool set back and be ready for best dumplings you've ever tasted great job guys and please keep them coming!! Mmm mmm!!“
“This place has amazing service and amazingly authentic food. The only reason I had to take a star off was because this food will definitely leave you running for the restroom. My boyfriend and I visited here for a quiet dinner and we loved it but for hours afterwards we kept having to revisit the bathroom. You should try the food at least once, but just be careful! The pork dumplings are a must for sure though!“
“OMG! best find of the vacation. Delicious!! We ate her once and then brough take out back to the hotel another night. The sesame noodles - excellent and dumplings!! Family of 4 and we all loved everything. Charlottesville on the mall can be pricey but Marco and Luca's is delicious and incredibly affordable.“
“Their lunch specials are a good value, and every meal has been delicious. The menu has decent variety for such a small restaurant. The owners are great people, but between the two of them they are very busy, especially over the lunch hour. Keep that in mind when you order and pick up. This is my favorite budget friendly Chinese restaurant in Charlottesville“
“This is my new favorite spot. The food is amazing, as are the people. Everything we have tried is delicious, but my favorites so far are Tibetan noodle soup and Mongolian beef. I’m planning to try the spicy whole fish next. They also have a ton of vegetarian options! We had a great experience dining in today.“
“What I ordered:Chicken Lo Mein, small size. In American standards, its portion size is small, but it was the right portion for one person. Don’t get me wrong, I would have eaten a large size but the small was perfect!Location:This place is made for take out. They have a couple tables but it’s really set up for take out.Food Quality:The food tasted like I would have expected, flavors didn’t stand out to me as chicken lo mein isn’t really a flavorful dish. I will say it didn’t taste of salt, so I’ll be going back for another round to try something different.Verdict:Try it out at least once, don’t do what I did.. ordered just one thing. I think this place would be best if you got some appetizers with your meal.“
“Definitely a go to dumplings place if you need to grab a quick meal. Place could have improved as there are limited seats. But the food makes up for it for sure. Limited food options also but hey.. if you only want regular dumplings/gyoza, this place doesn’t disappoint.“
“The absolute best dumplings I have ever had and I have traveled around the world to many countries and lived in cities with great Asian cuisine. Nothing compares to the dumplings at Marco & Luca! The dumplings burst with flavor and the sauce is delicious and perfect. I dream of them! You can really tell each one is handmade with love!“
“The food is good for Chinese American classic take out. Reliable, good portions. They are good at honoring requests for removing things where possible (like no veggies in fried rice). And if your app of choice offers adding extra sauces and such for a small charge, they do pretty good at putting it in the bag. (Aside - I really appreciate when that's an option on an online ordering app menu. I'll pay for extra dumpling sauce or whatever, just give me the option to add it to my order. Which this restaurant does on the app I used and I got plenty of extra sauce. ) Important to note though - if you want something subbed (white meat instead of dark, etc.) you should call your order in.Parking: Parking is limited but cars aren't there for long. Just get it delivered.Kid-friendliness: It's very much a take out only place. You won't be staying there to eat so it's not really an issue.“
“Came in with my husband and mom for lunch. We had Spicy Mongolian Beef, Sesame Chicken, Szechuan Chicken, Fried Wontons, Egg Drop soup and egg rolls. It was AWESOME and VERY delicious! She was so nice and even made me hot tea because I didn’t feel the greatest. It is my new FAVORITE place. We won’t be going anywhere else!!“
“The indoor space is not large. However, if the weather permitted, the outdoor seating would be great. The food is great, especially from a person that has decent experience with this type of food. When it is busy, it may take longer to have your dishes ready. It is worthy the waiting.“
