Our Story

How Marcos Brought
marco's pizza to Life

It all began in 2009 when founder Marco DiVincenzo carried a cherished family recipe from Naples to the sun-soaked shores of Marco Island, Florida. His vision was simple: serve marcos pizza the way it was always meant to be — hand-stretched dough, vine-ripened tomatoes, and fresh local toppings, baked to perfection in a stone hearth oven.

What started as a tiny neighbourhood kitchen quickly grew into Marco Island's most beloved dining destination. Today, Marcos serves hundreds of happy customers daily, staying true to the same quality, warmth, and passion that lit the very first oven flame.

Stone Hearth Tradition

Every marco pizza is baked in our original stone hearth oven, delivering that authentic, crispy crust every single time.

Locally Sourced Ingredients

We partner with local Florida farmers and suppliers to bring you the freshest, most flavourful ingredients available.

Community at the Core
