Food as always was so flavorful. The beet salad was something new for my wife and me: different but we will definitely order it again. Both of our entrees were outstanding! The decor is so warm, the bar always looks cool and the vibe is very inviting. Mana is definitely becoming one of our "Go To" places.

First time having dinner at Marco's and we will definitely be back. They are currently celebrating restaurant week in La Grange and the prie fix menu was outstanding. We all had different meals- the lahi Mahi, lamb chops, steak and duck. All of us would order them again and again and we want to go back to try the rest of the menu. Excellent drinks and a great price point for the quality and selection of the food and drinks.
