Marconi’s

Servers were great. Food is OK to not good. Fried calamari was terrible. Small portion and cooked in old oil and basic breading. House vinaigrette was nice. One meatball in the main dish. Yes, one. Wine was nice. $ 85 for 2 adults and small kid. Pizza turned hard as a rock after 15 min, meaning frozen, cheap ingredients. Spaghetti Bolognaise was literally a can of tomato soup with a cup of noodles. Tourist trap.

Great Italian place! Get the mountain man trio spaghetti dish it’ll fill you up! Recommend it to anyone looking for great food!

Excellent restaurant! If you are visiting Pagosa Springs then this is your Italian dining destination! The elk lasagna is excellent! The pizza is also great! Remember to call in advance (a day or two) if you have a larger party like we did. The service was excellent and the food was amazing! Im definitely a returning customer!

I stand corrected — food is not good, it’s fair; and service is PAINFULLY slow…
The owner is very nice, and the wait staff was very nice — but it didn’t outweigh the so-​so food and slow service. Really wished we’d gone somewhere else :-/​
Baked ziti — fair
Lasagna — fair
Elk lasagna — fair
Spaghetti with meatball — almost fair
Cheesecake — good
Cannoli — not good
Ice cream — ok
$ 150 — not ok :-(

A must if your in Pagosa! Great food at reasonable prices. The portions are huge so share a plate! We had some of everything and it was all good.

Amazing food! Great service and not overly priced. The chicken parm was fantastic, they even had gluten-​free pasta for the spaghetti. The flavors was light and tangy with a tiny sweet/​savory kick to it. The portion was very large. 2 chicken fillets over at a cup of pasta. The chicken was moist and full of flavor.
My husband had the elk meat lasagna and if was good also. It was a very a full bodied flavor. The meat with gamey at all. We paired this meal with a Caesar salad and their wonderful bread. The salad is brought out in a large wooden bowl. I would love this bowl, it reminded me of burrel bowls. The salad was exactly what you expect. The bread is very fluffy and light with a dippiing sauce of garlic, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil. We also ordered blueberry Crème Brule. The custard was thinner than I expected with a blueberry sugared syrup that was cooked to the hard candied stage over the top. The white chocolate cheesecake was decadent however. Thick, creamy sweetness with a marbled raspberry sauce. It was thick yet light enough that you could set a bit on your tongue and let it slowly dissolve. All that and a bottle of wine including tip was under $ 100. Made my birthday very special. Mostly after having a horrible experience at boss hog’s the night before.

After going to three different places, two were closed (Saturday night, 6:00 pm), one was empty we decided to do Italian. Thank goodness the others were closed.
We had a great meal, the elk lasagna was amazing and the osso buck was very good.
The service was excellent! The server was friendly, not overly attentive, came around at the right times.
Atmosphere was very nice over a bottle of wine.

The food is not bad. The Caesar salad is crisp and tasty and the blueberry crème brûlée was great. Otherwise, we didn’t care for the lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo or pizza. The people are super nice.

Had the most awesome experience here! Wait staff was great and friendly. We ordered half «The Duke» pizza and half Margarita pizza. Beyond delicious! Mark was amazing and even apologized for our horrible experience at Boss Hogs. Definitely a place to eat and enjoy!

Unfortunately as much as I want to love this place, it’s not great Italian. They are getting better and hopefully under new management they will turn in to my new favorite place to go.

This is our favorite restaurant in PS! We have visited this restaurant several times during family ski trips and each time, the service has been friendly and fantastic. Our family orders several menu items and shares since all of the food is excellent and it is difficult to decide. This is a relaxing restaurant to visit after a day on the slopes… or it is also a great place to carb load the day before hitting the slopes! Highly recommend!

Family friendly, good food & nice atmosphere. Pizza wasn’t great, the baked ziti was very good though.

I’m 7000 ft above my normal level of elevation. This is a small town compared to the giant city that I’m used to. Yet, this one Italian restaurant reminded me that good food can be found in any little area.
At first glance, the restaurant seemed empty and lacking in originality of the décor. I ordered the chicken marsala, a simple enough dish. They wonderful and polite waitress brought out the bread. It was pretty bad bread. This made me fear what was to come of my main meal. However, the Caesar salad was not bad at all.
I was pleasantly surprised by the portion and taste that came out. It was sweet and salty in the best kind of ways. The chicken was tender and melted in my mouth. It was a delicious and filling dish that I would definitely recommend for anyone visiting this spunky little town.

Food is good, prices a little bit expensive in my opinion. Salads and soups were good. The bread they served it wasn’t fresh at all.
The service is ok.
But comparing the restaurants standards we have in The Metroplex (DFW area) Texas… You will get very disappointed… We appreciated the food in Dallas Texas!
So in conclusion… Prices vs quality it doesn’t match.

This is a family run business. The staff is very friendly and professional. The food is great! My favorite is the Chicken Parm with Pasta and only Alfredo sauce. And they have great Sangrias and a Blueberry Mojito! Dont be shocked by the sticker price because you will get more food than you can eat.

I went here with my boyfriend for Valentine’s Day. We called the day before and set a time slot (they don’t call it a reservation). We arrived there and was greeted by the owner. He was very friendly and you can tell he cares about his business. They had our table reserved and we were sat immediately. I ordered the baked Ziti and a lemon drop martini and My boyfriend ordered the fettuccine arrabbiata. We both agreed that this was the best Italian food we ever had. Everything tasted homemade and unique. The restaurant had a great ambiance and the service was good. I would recommend coming here and wish it was closer to me.

We were welcomed by the chef/​owner with a smile. We were seated quickly and the waitress came over to take our drink order right away. The first course was the spicy calamari which we highly recommend. We ordered the Arrabbiata and Saltimbocca which were both so delicious. This place is not to be missed.

This place exceeded my expectations for a Pagosa Springs restaurant. We ordered Calamari Fritto for an appetizer and it was definitely in my top 5 that I’ve had. For dinner I ordered Chicken Parm with Fettuccine Alfredo instead of Spaghetti. Let me tell you, it was a little orgasmic lol. Definitely will be back. Also, the service was on point.

Didn’t expect authentic Italian food in Colorado this place is worth the stop. I truly suggest stopping here and seeing Christina a well informed fantastic server.

We just had the most remarkable meal at Marconi’s Italian Restaurant. The place is small, quaint and spotless. The menu is large enough to accommodate any taste for Italian food, but is not so large as to be overwhelming.
From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel like family. From the hostess that seated us, to the owner Marc, everyone went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. All entrees are cooked to order, so it may take a bit longer for the food to arrive than a person is used to, but it is absolutely worth the wait, and the atmosphere at Marconi’s is so relaxing and enjoyable that there is no rush to get through your meal.
The Bruschetta Pomodorro appetizer was light, refreshing and done perfectly.
The Pasta Pescatore is probably the best one I have ever had. All the seafood was perfectly cooked, the salmon was flaky and the mussels absolutely melted in my mouth. The Chicken Parmesan was cooked to perfection and covered with just the right amount of Parmesan and the marinara sauce was full and rich.
For dessert, the homemade Tiramisu is perfect! It was smooth and rich and the orange flavor Marconi’s has incorporated into their recipe made it a perfect ending for the Pasta Pescatore. The Spumoni is also out of this world! It was light and sweet, and paired perfectly with the Chicken Parmesan.
For us, Marconi’s is now the «must visit» restaurant whenever we are in Pagosa Springs.
