Marci Restaurant draws crowds with a moody, intimate vibe, a warm and attentive staff, and Italian-inspired dishes that many reviews describe as delicious and generously portioned. Many guests highlight the private backroom and other private spaces as a standout feature for groups, while noting that the space can be loud and the share-style format can feel challenging for two. Popular standouts include broccoli, meatballs, gnocchi, pizza, and chicken parmesan, with the tomato pie and other classics praised, though some critics feel certain dishes don’t always match the price. Service is frequently praised for warmth and wine guidance, but a few experiences mention inconsistent pacing or staff interactions, and some guests report slower service during busy times. Overall, Marci Restaurant is seen as a top pick for a lively night out or a romantic dinner, delivering strong food, ambiance, and value, with memorable shared plates and a cozy, candlelit setting.
Incredible food, service & vibe. My new favourite restaurant I can't wait to come back. Insane wine list & food that just kept getting better every plate they brought. A real 10 out 10
- amazing martinis, great wine selectiom - kale salad & shrimp are both bomb - charcuterie plate is a great size for the price - place is cute & service is good despite them being busy - martini pizza is just okay, i don't get the hype & think it's overrated, would not get again (it's not bad at all but it's just nothing to write home about imo) - sausage with brussel sprouts: the brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly but the sausage was a bit dry, i think it'd be better if the sausage was a bit thicker so it wouldn't dry out as much - would love one or two more cocktail options overall love this place, can't wait to come back!

Marci delivers in a way most restaurants only strive for. A perfect trifecta of flawless service with attention to every detail, intentional well executed aesthetic/ambience & music while offering exceptional unpretentious dishes. The clam casinos, chicken scarpariello, tuna crudo are the cherries on top of mouth watering pizzas. The GSM & Larryjune are a must. The star of the evening was the banana panacotta! They have an excellent wine list, cocktails & non alcoholic options. Delicious veggie friendly dishes too! There's a casual inviting vibe, with several different seating options, along with a changing menu that will have you coming back. Each time feeling like a whole new amazing experience.I highly recommend this lovely new addition to the St. Hubert Plaza!
Outstanding experience. The ambiance is fantastic. Stepping in, it feels like a niche New York speakeasy... They then peel back a velvet curtain, which opens into the main restaurant, where we had a table for 12. They had a three page wine list, & the food menu was straightforward, but every dish better than the last. I can't really pick a favourite ! I would definitely be sure to try the bitter salad, The chicken & potatoes, the beef pasta, & the eggplant. At the time of writing this, Marci has been open for about a month but it already knows exactly who it is, which makes for a great dining experience. Service was great as well. You can just feel that this joint has a big future ahead of it. Wait till Terras season! Oh, my God! Very much look forward to going back again & again for years to come.
Perfect spot for a date or a party with friends. From the ambiance decor & music to the absolutely spot on delicious food its Marci's versatility that got me! Amazing soundsystem & pizza is the draw but refined service, wine list & surprising menu items like clams casino or the to die for japanese eggplant parm put Marci over the top! Finally the overall attention to detail, aesthetic & feel is amazing. Shoutout to Marc & the team!
5 people who shared 3 pizzas (Martini, GSM & another pizza) & 3 plates (the two salads & eggplant parm). The food was delicious & the server was quite nice! Our table was upstairs & the music & vibe was fun. We shared 3 bottles of natural wine, delicious! Highly recommend.
