We had our wedding reception at Bar Marco and it was perfect. Shelby made the planning process so easy, and the staff went above and beyond on the day of. The food was incredible and our guests are still raving about it. The service was warm and seamless, and the space created the exact atmosphere we wanted: intimate, fun, and special. We could not have imagined a better place to celebrate.

Bar Marco was an exceptional venue for our wedding, and working with Shelby and the entire team was truly one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, Shelby was incredibly organized, thoughtful, and easy to work with.
On the wedding day, I didn’t have to think about a single thing. Shelby and her team handled all setup, logistics, and flow seamlessly, allowing us to be fully present and enjoy every moment. The level of care and professionalism was unmatched.
The food was absolutely insane, in the best way. During photos after the ceremony, the kitchen staff brought us snacks in the yard, which was such a thoughtful and memorable moment. And somehow, those chicken tendies were genuinely the best we’ve ever had. Our guests are still talking about the food, and how it elevated the entire experience.
The space itself is warm, beautiful, and full of character. I can honestly say I walked away from wedding planning one of the very few people with no wishes that anything had been done differently and that is entirely because of Bar Marco and their incredible team.

Hadn’t been here for dinner in a while and decided to bring my mom for her birthday. The dining area is quite small so I would recommend a reservation! We were seated and greeted promptly. I started with a cocktail which was tasty. For starters, we ordered the focaccia, sformato, and the arancini. The focaccia and arancini were good, but the sformato was the standout. Would definitely recommend ordering if you’re there for the spring menu. For entrees, I had the bolognese bianco which was delicious and just the right amount of richness. My mom had the lamb orecchiette which she said she enjoyed. For dessert, we shared the rosemary hazelnut pana cotta, it was just the right amount of sweetness and something unique. Overall a great meal.

My wife and I ate at Bar Marco the night we were married. We just returned for our 10th anniversary and it was spectacular. We dined downstairs in the wine room and the food, service, atmosphere were all top notch.
They care deeply about the ingredients that they use and it shows.

We’ve come here many times over the years, and it is always incredible. They change the menu frequently, but if you ever see the gnocchi with the castelmagno cheese sauce, definitely get it. The gnocchi in general is so good and fluffy. We’ve also had dinner in their wine room twice, and I consider that to be the top dining experience in Pittsburgh. You get multiple courses of amazing dishes with paired natural wines and an explanation for each course on where the ingredients were sourced/why they picked the wine they did.

Had dinner here with some friends and it was overall a great dining experience. Lots of small plate options to share if you want to nibble before your entree arrives. We had Amaro flights after our meal, and the bartender came out and discussed the different amaros with us and let us see the bottles. As an added bonus, they are a gratuity-free establishment.

Been here a number of times and it is always excellent. Arguably the best bar program in PGH. I have had private group dinners in their private space downstairs along with standard dinners in the main dining room. Each time is exceptional.

Love love love this restaurant. First time for me and the wife and it was amazing. We started out a with a cheese tray which was incredibly aged. My wife had the rigatoni with wild boar meat and it was phenomenal. I had the quail which was equally phenomenal. Can’t wait to get back to Bar Marco
