A lesser know gem! Food is delicious, service is great. A good intimate spot for a date night or special occasion.

Such a hidden gem! Went for a family dinner and I would go back in a heartbeat! The Chicken Milanese was excellent as was our dessert! Warm and cozy atmosphere with a large selection of favorites!

I have been going to San Marcos since prob 1992. At the time I thought it was probably the best Italian Cuisine I had ever had. Referral came from a colleague with an Italian background. Exquisite food, perfectly cooked with service and hospitality to match. Had a birthday dinner there a year ago and felt slightly rushed as another group coming in. Just repeated tonight. Doubt I will dine in again. Waited 20-30 min for requests for drinks and appetizers and then told that we needed to be done by 8 pm. 5:30 reservations. A soft statement that table will need to be turned over at a certain time is one thing but be told abruptly that we needed to be done at 8pm spoiled the ambiance. It is all in the presentation. And the food can not make up for it.

Amazing dishes, we had about 8 different plates to share , my favourite was either the sea bass or venison, as well as the lobster ravioli. This was hands down best Italian I've had in some time. Also I can not compliment the wait staff enough, they were very present and made sure we had a great dining experience. Amazing staff here. 10/10 for me

I got to come here for Valentine's Day dinner last night and it was fantastic. The romantic and cozy ambience was amazing, the staff was very nice and accommodating, and the food/drink was delicious. We ordered a couple glasses of Chianti, the fresh bread was a great touch, the entrees (filet mignon and the sea bass special) were both bursting with flavor, and the tiramisu was the perfect way to end a great Valentine's Day. Can't wait to come back! Reservations are recommended!

Food was great, service could be improved. Waitress we had did not seem to know what was and was not available.

We absolutely loved our dinners they were truly delicious. I had the chicken in a creamy Marcella sauce, and my husband had the Filet Minion . It is pricey and definitely worth it! If you want a special dinner, this is the place to go! Make sure to call and make reservations! Manga!

I was looking for fine dining in Buffalo NY.I am so glad I found San Marco Ristorante.They boast a scratch kitchen and do not disappoint.They have the freshest ingredients and the owners Frank and Nancy are top notch people. You can tell that is a pro family operation.The Livorno is my favorite dish.It’s incredible there.

Finally stopped into San Marcos and WOW!! What a beautiful place and phenomenol dinner!!! Service was outstanding, and even better when the owner seats you, even pulling out the chair! It’s places like this that I have missed!! The atmosphere is quaint and not loud, as most restaurants have become. I welcomed that! And the food?! Oh my! Everything was perfectly prepared and outstanding!! The bolognese with lamb and veal was amazing. The filet was cooked perfectly and so delicious. Even the tiramisu is something I will come back for! I encourage anyone to try this restaurant

We came here for our anniversary dinner, and I must say every entrée we ordered was fabulous!!! The pasta was fresh and everything was so well seasoned. Especially the shrimp and lobster ravioli was a 10/10 if you’re going to order one thing let it be this dish. The outside of the restaurant makes it seem like it’s closed but once inside the vibes are immaculate and I loved the ambiance, mood lighting and decor. Not pictured is the Tiramisu slice which was a disappointment, for $12 the portion size is tiny and it is not an authentic tiramisu, felt like something you would get at a grocery store.

Literally the best in 716. Over the top dinners and fabulous wine selection. Staff are amazing and welcome their guests like family. Can’t come to Buffalo without having a meal or two at San Marco! ?
