" Dining at Marco Polo's Marketplace was a delightful escape. The food was flavorful, especially the chicken parmesan, which surpassed my expectations for park food. The portions were generous, almost enough to share (but why would you!). The atmosphere, combined with live music, made for an enjoyable experience, but I did encounter a rather chaotic wait to get my food. If they can improve the service flow, this place could be top-notch! " (*Curated Review*)

" At Marco Polo's, I appreciated the variety of menu options! The Asian-inspired dishes were fresh, and my kids loved the fruit cups. However, I had a terrible experience with the staff when I inquired about gluten-free options; they were not empathetic to dietary needs. While the food was acceptable, the service is what will keep me from coming back. I suggest improvements are made in this area. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem in the heart of a theme park! Marco Polo's offers a fantastic variety of food that caters to all tastes. The chicken parmesan was standout and so were the portion sizes. The atmosphere with live music makes the dining experience even better. I went on a busy Saturday and still had a good time, but I would advise visitors to prepare for a bit of a wait during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Marco Polo's is a great pit stop when you're at the park! I loved the vibrant atmosphere, and the food choices, especially the flatbread pizza, were fantastic! A bit on the pricier side but considering it’s a theme park, it's what you sign up for. The service was not the best, so be prepared for waiting at busy hours. Still, the entertainment adds a lovely touch during the meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Marco Polo's a few weeks ago and I don't think my meal met expectations. While the portions were generous, the food itself was underwhelming. My rotisserie chicken had little flavor, and I was disappointed with the service. On a positive note, the atmosphere was lovely with live performances enhancing the experience. I might give it another try if I hear it has improved. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had dinner at Marco Polo's and it was a decent experience! The service left much to be desired; we waited quite a while for our food. However, the portions were generous and the pizzas were really good, especially the pepperoni flatbread. Overall, the atmosphere is lively with great show entertainment, but service improvements would make a huge difference! " (*Curated Review*)

" Good food and nice views! Marco Polo's offers a reality check for theme park food. I enjoyed my flatbread pizza while soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the show. Everything was fresh and flavorful, although the wait for food could be long. If you're patient and enjoy a vibrant meal setting, this place is a good choice! " (*Curated Review*)
