Lo Chef Marco

Filomena_L, Sept 2025
Mara is an excellent, gracious hostess; our chef Marco is a passionate, professional, kind, and knowledgeable about cooking Italian food and well versed in Asian cuisine and other foreign foods. From the moment we walked in, he made sure we felt comfortable and at home; starting with prosecco and spending 3 hours together; cooking and preparing; he was quite entertaining; thank you for the memories!

We recommend to everyone!

This is one of the best experiences we have ever had. Marco is very talented, kind and patient, we will remember his stories and his skills throughout our life & cant wait to make pasta at home with all that we have learnt from him. Thank you so much to both Marco & Mara for your generosity and education. An unforgettable experience. - Nomaan & Ammaarah.
