Marco’s Pizza

It’s just alright.
I’m dogsitting in this part of town and wanted to try something new, so I chose Marco’s. It was late, I was about a block away and seemed like it’d be the quickest option. Didn’t realize it was a national chain until after I had committed. And stepping inside, it feels like «just another chain restaurant”— a cheap one at that. Just wanted to throw that out there for people like me who are trying to find something a bit more unique.
As far as the food goes, like I said, it was aight. Had the Italian sandwich. They have wheat bread for all you «health nuts.» Flavor was there, but not mind-​blowing. Quality of the meat was low. Overall, I’d say it was mediocre at best.
Staff seemed friendly at this location.
That’s all I got.

Visit 3: Last night we wanted to splurge on pizza and wings and Marco’s Pizza did not disappoint! We ordered thin crust pepperoni and green peppers and thin crust bacon and mushroom. The bacon and mushroom was my favorite! The thin crust had a firm and crispy bottom, no soggy mess yay! We ordered two kinds of wings: hot and barbecue. They gave us plenty of sauce which is just how I like it and the wings were nice and meaty! They included a baked brownie but we were so full we couldn’t even take a bite of dessert last night! Definitely a worth it cheat meal for us!
Visit 2: Pepperoni pizza w Parmesan crust! Best pizza pie yet! Thanks Marco’s!
Visit 1: Got the steak and cheese with Parmesan crust for my girlfriend. She loved it! Thanks Marcos!

I love pizza, more importantly, I love very tasty pizza! I had never had Marco’s pizza before because I live on the West Coast and there are not any around where I live and I have to say, it is absolutely awesome pizza. Their sauce has so much flavor and all the ingredients tasted very fresh. Their seasoning on their dough is also great. The staff was very friendly and they greeted me with a smile when I went to pick up my order. If you are not a pizza fan, their sandwiches are great too. Either way you can’t lose by giving them a try! Enjoy!

Fast delivery. They have always gotten our order right. No complaints!
I didn’t care for the cinnamon bread dessert, but there was plenty to go around. I like traditional pepperoni vs the old world. Sauce is good, just enough cheese. One request would be for gluten-​free dough.

Ive tried many pizza places in the area but this one is by far the absolute best! Delivery is prompt. I love the fact thst you can add all sorts of toppings and that you can even have them put certain toppings on half the pizza. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for great pizza!

I never had the pizza here. Every time I came I ordered the Italian sub. Soooo good! Packed high with meat, banana peppers, tomatoes, red onions, and melted cheese. I do not know want to know how many calories are in that thing.

I love this place. Whenever we crave some pizza we usually get it from here. We normally get the White Cheezy. Also, their old world style pepperoni is SO good.

Yummy!
Got a 12′ pizza and got to different toppings (half and half of two different supreme toppings).
They do not skimp on the toppings. Each slice is loaded with ingredients.
They also make the pizzas fairly quickly. Ours was done in 10 minutes!
Quick, tasty and affordable!

Hands-​down, the best customer service Pizza restaurant in Durham. Love the parmesan crusted pizza, and they don’t skimp on the toppings! Have also enjoyed the incredible warm brownie and several of the salads and haven’t gone wrong yet.

The food is amazing and the customer service top notch. I love the deluxe uno with the Parmesan crust. The subs are great as well

Picked up a quick pizza from Marco’s on a Friday evening after work, at the recommendation of my hair stylist. The sky was clouding up so I knew I had to rush to beat the storm. I ordered a small meat supremo and added all three options on the crust at the recommendation of the person taking my order. I think it was garlic butter, parmesan, and romano. The pizza was ready in about 10 minutes and it was AMAZING. The crust was light and buttery but not greasy at all. In fact, I heated a slice up the next morning and there was no greasy trace which makes my heart smile! The pizza was topped with tons of tasty meat and then layered with extra cheese. Best pizza I’ve had in a while. It’s a small walk-​in place with maybe 2 tables so it’s definitely a grab and go kind of place. I’ll definitely be back for more!

The staff was polite but the pizza we received was just meh. I compare this to better than Cici’s but about like a Domino’s pizza. Nothing stands out on the flavor. Randy’s is so much better. It just tastes more authentic.

pizza is decent for NC but DO NOT bother to get it delivered. Go get it yourself. They do not have the brightest delivery people who can’t ever find your address and also have phones that they can’t hear you on phone. a big FAIL when you want some pizza delivered quick and the delivery guy is on the phone with you for 25 minutes and still cannot find your address.

I hardly ever order pizza from take-​out only places. When I do it’s usually Pappa J’s, but I decided to give Marco’s, the new kid on the pizza block a try.
I ordered a large «pepperoni magnifico» pizza which had both the «old world» style pepperoni and traditional. They definitely didn’t skimp on the pepperoni. There was plenty of it, like covering the whole pizza. Of the two types of pepperoni, I liked the «old world» pepperoni better. They are smaller and crispier than traditional pepperoni. I also liked the sauce. The crust I thought was a little bland. I had ordered the butter/​garlic crust topping, but either they forgot to brush it on the crust or I just couldn’t detect it.
Over-​all a good experience. I think I still prefer Pappa John’s and definitely Randy’s over Marco’s, but I am willing to go back and try some more choices at Marco’s (for example their subs or wings). I will adjust my review accordingly when I do. They seemed to be doing a booming business when I went.

When we want a quick pizza this is our new spot for being on the cheap (a large one topping pizza for $ 8, if their opening special lasts). We find the cheesy bread soft and chewy. I really like the marinara sauce that comes with it. So far we have had the pepperoni several times, and it’s pretty delicious.

This place ROCKS. The pizza is off the chain. the subs will blow your mind away. This is my go to place for pizza, and they give you a $ 3 off coupon if you order online. wOW.

This is a great spot to get some good pizza and I’d really recommend trying the cheesy bread. As far as delivery pizza joints go this is one of my favorites, I would defiantly pick this place over the regular pizza joints (Pizza Hut and Dominoes). I use to frequent another Marco’s a few years back and I am pleased to say they have held up in the quality of their pizza. Really happy they opened this one which is down the street from me.

Great meatball sandwich!!!

Coming from Chicago I consider the Triangle a pizza desert when it comes to good pizza. While Marco’s, which is from OH, isn’t a great substitute it’s definitely a step up.
I had a sausage, mushroom, onion & green pepper on a thin crust and it was pretty good. The toppings were ample, the sausage was meaty with a bit of spice to it, and the sauce had a good tang to it. The thin crust held up well with the amount of toppings without getting soggy and they cut it in squares as requested. For a little over $ 12 with a coupon it was a deal for a large.
I did a pick up and the staff was friendly and efficient. I’ll definitely try it again.

First time ordering, delivery was quick, I will give them that.
The pizza was not so great. We ordered a meaty one with bacon on it and the bacon was sooo tough and chewy, we couldn’t eat it. It was awful.
The sauce and flavor was unremarkable.
The crust was tough and chewy.
We also ordered cheese bread and it wasn’t cooked through properly. There was a bit of raw dough in the middle area of the cheese sticks. Not appetizing at all. Even the cooked parts lacked any real flavor.
The chicken wings were the «best» part of the order however there are places near us that deliver that do their wings 100% better. These from Marcos were big and plump however they were also pretty soggy. Some people might like soggy wings, but I prefer mine to be more crisp. The hot sauce was good and spicy.
Won’t bother ordering again. What a shame. PS the place across from them next to Dunkin Donuts, even though they don’t deliver, their pizza was much better if you’re searching for a «non-​chain» style pizza I would go there instead.

Great first visit for carry out. Excellent ingredients; cooked «just right»; like that they have both regular & thin crust. I got pepperoni & Italian sausage, really good pizza.
