Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Took the chance to revisit this favourite restaurant of mine since it has been years i have gone to back to Shanghai. The food is super yummy. Still have my favourite risotto and oven baked pizzas. Will visit again in my next Shanghai trip.

Best because of the price, taste, big portions, nice waiters, you get very much for the money. Me and my family is visiting Da Marco in Puxi many times per year. But the one in Pudong doesn’t taste as good as the one in Puxi,...unfortunately because we lives much closer to that one. Beef carpaccio, cold meat platter, pasta and pizza are all really good.More

The service at this restaurant is extremely poor. Knowing that I was inviting a customer to dinner, they had the common sense to let the customer pay the bill. Later, I asked them to issue an invoice and I was accused of being fraudulent and...denied the invoice to me unless I provided card payment record before (from the customer!). No matter how the food is, I won't take anyone there. I'm so disappointedMore

When I used to live in Shanghai, 1999 - 2010, this was my FAVORITE CHINESE restaurant!!! Friendly. I enjoyed sitting at the bar, having free appertisers + Italian wine, smoking my Cuban cigars I brought in from Hong Kong. Food is very good for the...money. Best of all, Marco and his staff are very friendly. Italian hospitality. I miss this restaurant! Best memories ever. Next time I'm in Shanghai, I'll go to my favorite Chinese restaurant!!!More

We had not been back to Marco’s for a while. Having the feeling it had not evolve for a long time, we tried several new venues in town. When we heard about the new chef in charge, we decided to give a shot over the...weekend. One of our best recent decisions. That chef is something! Some much creativity in what he offers, yet keeping the core of Italian cuisine. We went for all of that day’s specials (we were a party of 7). Nothing we could fault. It was absolutely delicious all along! I have already booked for the this, and there are no doubts this becoming a weekly for us. Just go!!More

If you are in China almost frequently for business, and you're Italian or anyway from Europe and you're missing the basic flavour of the foods of your country, this is the best place vailable in ShangHai. It's like to be in a top pizzeria in...Italy. Any type of outstanding classic Italian foods available. Appetizers, Pastas, Risottos, Fish, Meat, Pizzas, desserts. Any type of wines and top drinks as well. So if you're sad and melancholic because missing from home far too long, this is the place to restore your mind, rise your energy, and feeling like to be at home even only for some hours. ENJOY !More

We've been going to DaMarco for past 19years. We saw the place being redesigned and renovated for few times, but one thing that is consistent is their food, the quality and the portions, as well as service - some of the waiters have been working...there since the day of our first visit. It's a kind of our family place for Saturday dinner. We tried majority dishes on the menu, but have our favorites. The food is fresh, the staff is efficient, and the prices are reasonable. It's always a nice touch to be greeted with a glass a Prosecco. We love the place and highly recommend everyone who loves tasty homemade Italian food))More

If you are in Shanghai....well...choose another Da Marco Restaurant. This one offers bad food and the staff are so not welcoming and they so do not give a damn at all. First and very last time at this Da Marco.

As a group of 6, we shared a parmigiana and mozzarella starter, two pizzas, risotto, a seafood pasta and the osso bucco. ALL AMAZING! We found that the mozzarella, while it tasted good, to quite hard but apparently that's how buffalo mozzarella is supposed to...be (!) Anyway, the waiter was kind enough not to laugh at us, but he did advise that we order a burrata next time instead. Haha! So its said that this place has been around forever. Not sure what took us so long to find it but I can definitely see us going back soon. We received very good and friendly service considering how busy the restaurant was that Friday night. Unfortunately, we did not have room for dessert as we also had a birthday cake but will surely try next time! Reservations recommended.More
