   Disappointing. Very loud. Food seriously over salted and generally mediocre. Poor, inattentive service. Hard to understand why it’s so popular.

   Beautiful new restaurant and friendly service. Appetizers were delicious. I was disappointed in the Branzino as it was presented as a whole fish with head and tail on We had to dissect the fish out and it still had skin on it. Desserts were disappointing. I would go back to this restaurant and order differently next time, however.

   Food was good but not great and expensive (but everything is right now ) good service but we were charged $60 for something we didn’t get . Probably don’t need to go again with all of Houston’s great options

   Food and service were excellent. Every course was delicious and steak perfectly flavored and cooked. Nice atmosphere. Wish they had more bathrooms tried going back several times and line was at least 6 people waiting each time for only a few unisex one stall bathrooms. Also the floors were slippery with heels or flats had to walk carefully back from bathroom maybe some rugs would help.

   The food was great. The duck was good.....have had better. The special short rib was delicious. (enough meat to send you into a meat coma) The panna cotta was unique with basil and peaches (I think it was peach) and we loved it. The service was good. Beautiful restaurant. Cocktails were great-- Corleone was our favorite. The top drink on the list (that I can't recall the name of) was also good. Light & refreshing. Good balance of vodka to grapefruit along with the other ingredients. Parking in the garage was easy and a fair price based on how long you park there. Hostess staff was friendly & welcoming.

   i came here to celebrate my birthday and the food was amazing. The service on the other hand, was on par with olive garden. I didn't feel welcomed and everyone at the table explained feeling the same. I work upstairs and have been waiting to eat here since it was being constructed, I was saving my birthday to eat here for the first time. I wish the service had been better, but it left a bad taste in my mouth when we left. The server dropped a knife of my mom and didn't say anything and we over all felt we were treated poorly. My mom left feeling down and bad, which is something I don't want to see my mom feeling on my birthday, especially for how much we were paying.

    Marmo was very welcoming from the moment we walked through the door. Once we were sat down we were greeted by our wonderful waitress and she did an amazing job. The food itself was awesome. We both had the bolognese and the caesar salad and honestly the salad was great.

    We ordered two dishes and an appetizer. The appetizer and one of the dishes was good, the other was not. The service was very good, and the food came out quickly and hot. We sat inside and the noise volume was extremely loud. We sat at a small table and had to yell at each other to be heard. The interior is pretty but the designer did a bad job, as soft furnishings were nonexistent to reduce the noise level. There was a piano player and someone singing in the bar area and they had it piped through the sound system of the dining room. This was strange , and you really couldn't hear the music as it was already so loud in the dining area.They should have kept it in the bar. We may consider going back and sitting outside. The outside area looked nice. I would not go here for a romantic dinner or date night.

    A definite must. Marmo is one of the newest restaurants to be welcomed into Houston and it's definitely become an established place. We went for date night and it was busy, but you didn't feel like you had to compete for service. Our server was amazing and the food was delicious!!! I ordered the half order of the lobster ravioli and was perfect. The right amount of lobster chunks!! Nothing makes me more mad than when I order lobster anything and you get zero lobster. Not a Marmo- you see it and you taste it. It was perfect. The wine selection is fantastic. If anything- the bread server needs to come around more often :D, but honestly- you have to dine here. I look forward to returning. Hoping that next year they join the other restaurants and participate in Restaurant Weeks- it allows folks to dine very well and the Food Bank gets a donation.

    Beautiful decor. Terrific food. Great steaks, pasta and creative sides with a Gulf Influence. Very noisy, especially when the piano and vocalist are going. Fun for sure but if you’d like conversation be aware of the noise.

    Celebrated a birthday. Service was slow - our waiter was super nice but service was slow. Our appetizer missed one of the cheeses we had added to the charcuterie board and for the price, there was very little on the board. When dinner finally came, and there was a long wait, the highly priced lobster ravioli, ordered by two at our table, was cold and had to be returned to the kitchen. On the plus side we were given a celebratory dessert. The meal was long, the food was average and not anything special. The ambience is loud but the decor is cool. We were sadly disappointed by the experience

    Food and beverages were very good, with the exception of raw oysters, which were not served cold. The service was attentive. It has a nice ambiance except for the noise level: it was difficult to converse with dinner partners because the recorded music level was so high that all diners had to be speak loudly. Only the upper level registers of the music could be heard, but it appeared that the same recording was played the entire time. There was a brief period at the end when the music was off, and all diners seemed to adjust their speaking accordingly. Great place, but it needs to determine if it is a bar, or a fine dining establishment.

    Big disappointment! Service was extremely poor. It felt like there was little interest to serve our table. We were give focaccia and butter when we were finishing our main course. Ok.. normally bread comes first.. We were served our starter as our cocktails arrived and then we waited 45min for our main courses. At this point the focaccia would have been nice. The food was average. We had salads and pasta, which an average home cook could have easily produced at home. Disappointing considering the $$$$. Cocktail did not hit the mark. We tried a cantaloupe margarita, which had a sharp tequila taste. The best part of the dinner was the tiramisu, which was good but not excellent. Nothing draws me back to Marmo, unfortunately!

    Location and outdoor seating are very nice. Service is attentive but average. They have live music but you can’t hear it at outdoor seating. Food is at best average and overall value meaning money versus cost is low. It primarily suppose to be a Italian restaurant but there are quite a few much better Italian restaurants In Montrose.

    The decor is nice. Food is great but not super exciting. It’s def worth a try. The service was awful. Do not get Alice as your waitress. It’s my second time getting her and she is just awful. We had to call the manager twice. Waitress ran my card without my authorization.

    Had really looked forward to trying this place. Attractive restaurant. Delicious food. Good service. It was so loud that my dinner companions and I could not hear each other across the table. I won't be back. I don't understand why restaurants think that unbearable noise makes for a wonderful dining experience.

    Food was excellent all around, but the Squid Ink Campanelle was next level good. Prepare to be elbow to elbow with the other diners, though. Seating is cramped, and a the restaurant is bit loud as a result.

    We absolutely loved Marmo! The food was incredible and the service was great, especially for a restaurant that recently opened. My only recommendation is to lower the music a touch. As someone who loves music, I do think it’s still important to be able to hear conversation - maybe we were directly under the speaker or our guests were too soft-spoken - but I want to bring my family back and I know this would be my dad’s complaint with his hearing aids. Everything else was wonderful and we can’t wait to go back!

    While there was a good amount of time to chat with business colleagues and clients, we found ourselves finding topics to converse about as we were waiting for the waitstaff to even come introduce themselves. We found service to be somewhat slow or less attentive. The water and help staff was great and filled the waters promptly.
