They forgot my side of AuJu Sauce. Food was good. Driver was late. Had to go find the driver and get my food. Driver wasn't pleasant and was rude.

Did not realize there would be hot peppers on the Chicago dog.

I got the Gyro and it was really good. My friend got the pretzel grilled cheese and they really enjoyed it as well. Staff was nice and helpful.

Marco's, a popular late-night spot in downtown, offers a mix of nostalgic street food and tailgating snacks. While some patrons praise their beloved ham and cheese sandwiches, recent menu items like the classic grilled cheese have failed to impress. Diners report cold, unmelted cheese and bland gyros that fall short of expectations, especially given their steep prices, which can reach up to $17. Although the atmosphere is well-received and the late hours make it convenient, many are left feeling disappointed, finding better options elsewhere. Will Marco's reclaim its former glory or continue to miss the mark?.

I'm a former IC resident and used to have Marco's at least twice a week. I miss it SO much! I would kill for a Reuben right now!! :

Love the grilled cheese, add tomato and ham! Even swung by the night of my bachelorette party!

You don't know grilled cheese until you've had Marco's! An IC STAPLE!!!

Best quesadilla I've ever had! Hot sauce is a bit spicy, but it adds flavor and is a must (even if just a little). Can't forget the pico, either!

Buddy and I got food poisoning. They get their food for the grill from the dollar store and serve moldy bread. My work got them to cater, never again.

Their food cart at 1 am downtown is always a treat, so it was nice to finally be able to visit the store front location. Ham and cheese was delicious as always...
