What a shame. We liked to go there a couple of times each holiday.
The staff were very friendly and the food was good if you enjoyed chilli etc.
I'm sure Marco?, worked in the original Nicos and not long before lockdown, he had taken on the business himself. It must have been a worrying time for him and perhaps it's not worked out!
The Menu of the Day was good value and remained the same for years.

Noooooo!!!!
Absolutely gutted about this. Always eat at Marcs first, middle and last night. Used to eat at Nicos when we first started going to PP.
Marcos has always been really friendly and this was probably our favourite restaurant taking everything into account.
Nice food, good value and a relaxed atmosphere. I remember his uncle, Cisco working there with him.
Definately will be much missed and good luck to whatever Marcos does next.

That will be very sadly missed. We always found the service to be good , along with the food - and the prices we thought were really excellent value for money. I hope that the "Testing the Water" theory is correct, and we will once again be dining there this September.

Some people have heard that it will remain open for at least one more season.

Bump.....
Excellent news again.
Instagram post this week saying they are open for the season from today. Our fave restaurant overall. Can't wait for June.

Our favourite too! I felt so sorry for him as I'm sure he just took-over the restaurant himself when Covid hit. Really tough times for everyone but he must have had some sleepless nights, so he's done well to keep going and hopefully will continue until we can return.
The chilli is to die for.....

When we were in PP in June, Marcos said that this year is definitely the last year they will be open. We were so gutted that when we returned home we booked another holiday for September so we could go back and eat there a few more times.
Had 3 more evening meals there in September and said an emotional farewell to Marcos ( some tears on both sides ). Even gave us a bottle of our fave wine ( Senorio de Sarria rosado ) to take home.
We have eaten at Marc's, and previously Nicos, for around 20 years and always looked forward to visiting.
Marcos, and Marc's will be much missed. Hopefully we will bump into him next year as he lives in PP.
Finally, he mentioned Josep, from C'an Josep will be opening up a new restaurant in its place, but didn't know in what capacity or what it would be like.
Gone, but not forgotten. Thanks Marcos.

Gosh that's a shame. We really enjoyed going there and I lived the chilli!
The menu didn't change but there was plenty choice and service was excellent anytime we were there.
Between Marcs and Hibiscus closing it's definitely all change.
I hope the new owners have an affordable menu as it can be pricey if paying high-end prices every night!
Do you know if Marc is retiring? (although I'm sure he's not old enough)
Perhaps he's moving on to something else...
Thank you for info.

Yes, I have told that as well.
Another chain in the making.

I really don’t think that you could remotely describe a local family, having run a really nice restaurant for over 20: years and now opening a second, as “another chain in the making”. I’ve known about this for some months but was sworn to secrecy, and I think it will be a great asset to the area of the square and I’m very much looking forward to going.

I look forward to future reviews and hopefully not too long until we can return ourselves!

Icampbell15....... Marcos has wanted for a number of years to do something sports or fitness related but was not sure about a specific role when we spoke.
Used to eat in C'an Josep each holiday at least twice and the food and service was also top notch. When he moved to his current premises we decided it was a bit too far to go of an evening! Looking forward to seeing what he brings back to the square.

I hope it works out for Marcos!
We really enjoyed our evenings there and the Mexican food. We tried Dakotas a few times over the years but didn't enjoy it at all, although they have managed to remain in the Port!
We were the same with C'an Josep after he moved. It will be interesting to see what he plans for the square!
