About Marco's Restaurant & Pizzeria

Authentic Italian Food & Fresh, Hand-Tossed Pizza In Marietta PA

Since 1974 Marco’s Restaurant and Pizzeria in Marietta has been serving the neighborhood authentic Italian food and the fresh bread, used for all dinners and sandwiches, continues to amaze first timers and keeps the regulars coming back for more. We offer at least 4 fresh soups daily, all made from scratch.

The Pomodoro/tomato sauce is made from hand crushed tomatoes. It's lite and delicious! All dinners are made-to-order and we've developed a very efficient system serving hot food to our patrons quickly.

Many dishes you will recognize as Home-Style American recipes in addition to Classic Italian meals. Fried chicken freshly made to order, 8 oz. tenderloin steak, Chicken platters with mashed potatoes and gravy, the list goes on.

My mother was German and my Father Italian, so both come through in the menu choices. Seafood lovers must taste the white wine Pomodoro Sauce Fra Diavolo! This is a classic Pescatore/Bouillabaisse sauce with plum tomato and white wine.

Amazing and a great value for such a delicate and savory plate! We are still family owned and operated with an incredible staff, helping to serve the best authentic secret dishes in Lancaster. All in all we offer, affordable, delicious and fresh foods in a family atmosphere (and we are very kid friendly)!

Fresh hand tossed pizzas and subs are made to order and beer and wine are served tableside in the non-smoking, family dining room.

If you can't make it to Marco's, Marco's will come to you with our delivery service. We serve the full menu including beer with your home delivery! Plus we offer a huge selection of domestic, imported and craft beers in 6 packs to-go.



For over 4 generations the Sardi family has been serving a variety of Italian favorites as well as classic authentic Italian dishes.

In fact, the first generation of Sardi family restaurants started in Italy. From there, they brought their tasty recipes to New York City. Now Marietta and the surrounding towns—from Columbia to Maytown and Bainbridge to Mount Joy (anywhere in what Marco Sardi calls “the greater Donegal area”) customers get to experience authentic Italian cuisine in their own backyards. Marco’s Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria is a family-owned and operated restaurant that’s been in business for over 44 years.

“We make delicious, hand-prepared authentic Italian meals,” Marco says, “including some of the best bread in Lancaster County.”

That bread is the basis for a huge selection of food including our pizza crust, stromboli, calzones, fresh dinner rolls, focaccia and sandwich breads. The bread and the sauces that the Sardis use are made fresh daily. Pizza selections include both the thin crust and deep dish varieties. “Our plum tomato sauce is to die for,” Marco adds. The tomato sauce finds its way into the spaghetti and lasagna dishes, while the restaurant offers a selection of other fresh dishes as well. All the veal, chicken and beef entrees are made with high quality cuts, and the hand-made black Angus hamburgers are always a popular choice. Affordability and fresh, quality ingredients are two key priorities for Marco. That translates into all kinds of delicious offerings on site.

“We offer four to seven soups a day,” Marco explains, “and they are all made fresh daily on the premises.”

In addition to their soups, Marco’s offers many sandwich varieties including paninis, subs and hand stretched wraps all made to order, along with wonderful classic Italian desserts and they include some PA Dutch treats like whooppie pies for good measure. If you need a six pack, Marco’s has an enormous selection of 6 packs, including a wide variety of domestic, imported and craft beers. Marco's now also offers adult slushies for take-out and dine in orders. Friday nights are a special night at the restaurant, as it’s often seafood night. Marco's provides the white wine Seafood Livornese Fra Diavolo, a seafood and plum tomato dish over pasta with delicious bouillabaisse that has people coming back for more. Along with Italian music, Fridays are a great time to relax.

100+ choices and varieties of beer, adult slushies and malt beverages available for take out.

"You can even mix a six!". If you can't make it to Marco's, we offer full delivery menu including six packs.
