Bloody Mary Brunch company is where I was at,not Marcos .... opening day where things can get just kaotic, things were quite under control, beside getting sausage instead of chorizo handed to me later thru my breakfast and getting the wrong breakfast item served to me,,,,,, everything was great, even the bloody Mary.
A little pricey for every item,,($3 juice and coffee),,,this place will make it as it has a great, experienced, owner in the restaurant/Bar business and it's not That Travis guy.
Five stars all around!! Good luck Chris

Pizza and Movie rentals?! Whaaaa?
Word on the street was that a new pizza place opened up next to a Family Video in Peoria. The same word on the street said that the pizza was delicious. With needing no further encouragement, a friend and I decided to see what the buzz was all about.
We pulled up to Marco’s Pizza and noticed how small it was. Being attached to a Family Video, it made sense. But upon entering, we were greeted with not only friendly people working but nowhere to sit. Both Matt and I had a nice moment of… oh crap… what do we do? After discussing it, we decided to grab a pizza anyways and head back to his place to eat it.
After we poured over the menu, we decided to get either a medium or large and customize half of it to each of our liking. His side was something similar to a Deluxe and mine was a BBQ Chicken. We also got the crust topped with garlic butter as that was a new and unique sounding menu item. As we waited for our food to cook, we took a gander around and noticed that you could also rent some movies while waiting for your food to cook. How ingenious is that. Marco’s seems to be connected to Family Video, so you can grab the latest release while grabbing dinner. After looking over the movie deals posted in Marco’s, our pizza was ready and we hit the road back to Matt’s.
Unfortunately, it was quite the drive back to Matt’s as he lived two towns away. We quickly darted inside and grab some cans of coke to go with the pizza. As we dug in to our sides of the pizza, it was evident that the drive was detrimental to the temperature of the pizza. While it wasn’t cold, it wasn’t fresh out of the oven either. Cold pizza doesn’t bother me but it does lose some of that pizzazz and flavor as it cools down. But that didn’t stop the pizza from being delicious. Every bite was oozing with flavor and deliciousness. Once I hit the crust, I was in heaven. That garlic butter crust topper was the perfect way to end each slice of pizza.
While it was unfortunate that the pizza cooled down on our trek back home, it didn’t stop us from enjoying it and craving another visit. Knowing that it is carry out/delivery only, we will have to pick a nearby place to devour it while it is still pipping hot.

From Chicago and have fairly high standards. As far as getting a good pizza in Peoria this is definitely one of the better ones even though it’s a chain. My one complaint is both times I’ve ordered they didn’t have all the toppings I wanted. Seems to me they need to get a better handle on their stock.
My last point is to people who are complaining about the price. Fresh ingredients aren’t cheap. Some of us want a nice pizza rather than an inexpensive mediocre one.
