Pretty good authentic local food restaurant. Service was rather slow, particularly since we were there after 2 pm and there we were only the second table occupied. The food was served hot and it was delicious, and the price was very reasonable. My first time to have local food and I enjoyed it very much.

Wonderful night celebrating at Marco’s. Food was great, service staff spectacular and the live music was the perfect accompaniment to dinner. My husband got the pan African platter and I got the oxtail curry. Both were cooked to perfection. Thanks for a wonderful evening. My husband also drank the local African specialty beer. I thought it was bad but he quite enjoyed it.

Nice traditional South African food restaurant, the food is on point and live performance is even more on point and very entertaining. There is a designated free of charge parking lot closer to the premises. The waitress was a bit rude by demanding a tip it was a complete turn off, let the patrons decide if you get a tip or not and you will always get a tip if you are nice to your customers. Otherwise I would have gave it a 5 star.

Finally stopped there because I was told I could find some Okra Soup. Nope!
However, the restaurant has an Absolutely lovely decor! The meal was delightfully tasty. Although the Salmon portion and salad was a tad bit small for the price. The South African beer was on point (Eastern). The entertainment was excellent and customer was pleasing. There is live entertainment daily 5-9. A R25 cover charge is added to your bill. If you arrive at 4 and leave at 5:30 you will be charged if you are there to sit and dine.
Very nice bar as well. I really wish I would've entered this restaurant weeks ago...but I'm glad I finally did. Oh, and I purchased a T-shirt! A taste of authentic South Africa from South Africans. Here is a tip. Please tip your table service at least 18% and tip the band. Support the arts!

At Marco's restaurant you can breathe a convivial and fun air, the food is excellent and the live music leads you to truly appreciate the local history and reality. Obviously the choice of meats is excellent but also of side dishes and desserts
