About Marco Polo Restaurant

The ambiance at Marco Polo Restaurant strikes a balance between casual and refined, where muted lighting and soft background music create a welcoming backdrop for diners. A glance at the Marco Polo Restaurant menu reveals a thoughtful array of traditional Chinese dishes alongside a few inventive takes that hint at regional influences. Portions tend to be generous, with notable attention to presentation, though a couple of dishes felt slightly over-seasoned, which may not suit all palates. The selection of appetizer options, such as the crisp spring rolls and delicate dim sum, sets a promising tone for what follows.

Conversations around the table flowed easily, complemented by attentive service that manages to be unobtrusive yet responsive. While checking various Marco Polo Restaurant reviews, a pattern emerges: many appreciate the authenticity woven into the flavors, but some mention a desire for more vegetarian choices. The dining experience is enriched by the staff’s willingness to explain ingredients and suggest alternatives, which adds a personalized touch to the evening. This dynamic interplay between food and service underscores a restaurant that values guest experience without overextending itself.

Photos of Marco Polo Restaurant often capture the vibrant colors and textures of its cuisine, matching the sensory memories that remain long after the meal ends. Alongside well-executed classics like Peking duck and Kung Pao chicken, there are subtle hints of experimentation that avoid overpowering the core dishes. Pricing aligns reasonably with the quality and portions provided, although some might find a few items slightly steep compared to local alternatives. Overall, the restaurant presents a solid option for those seeking a dependable taste of Chinese cooking in a relaxed environment.

One of the very few Chinese restaurants in Arendal, however it offers good food with generous portions for sharing. We had a few dishes and all were tasty. Great hospitality too with very heartwarming touch.

Friends recommended this restaurant and it was worth it. The food were delicious, some dishes are better than the other. Still for me the spring rolls and the beef were yummy. Also the brownie with ice cream was delicious. And the price for all the food you see in the pictures were totally fine. Our service Fatma was so friendly and also very attentive. Keep going! Two things I didn't like were the decorations (it wasn't "chinese" enough) and that the toilet for women are downstaires, but toilet for men are in the restaurant.

I have been here several times last 12 months even I lived 70km away. The place served tasty meals for reasonable prices, good portions of meals. Pleasant and attentive owner lady. The interior is so and so. Quality and value for your money. (Try to get the table by the farthest window overviewed the straight street, then you have a lot amused street situations included ). Enjoy! Update 28.04.2024 New owners, the tast is still delicious. Still lot of guests on a Sunday. BUT why did they bother to serve me with a plate full of shards?

NO WHEELCHAIR ACCESSABILITY Only reason I gave 4 stars is the quality of food, which was great, and the cooks knows their food Service can be improved quite alot, one element is that they forgot or drinks before food was served I had to remind them that our drink hadn't come when they served our food The decoration is quite tacky and looks like they paid bare minimum for decor Tacky starlight's in the ceiling and a super amateur photo on the wall And the toilet looks like a warzone with broken lid, a toilet seat not attached to the joints and paper towels everywhere
