Marco Polo pleases with pizza

Marco Polo Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant, located on Crown Street in the heart of New Haven’s Ninth Square, is a quaint eatery noticeably removed from the bustle of Yale’s central campus. Average food is accentuated by a comfortable atmosphere, and although the restaurant is only a five-minute walk from Old Campus, the laid-back feel makes it seem worlds apart.

Dear Sir:

I just read your review of Marco Polo. Your review flies in the face of everything I have ever heard about this establishment. I know hundreds of people who have either ordered takeout from Marco Polo or dined there. People from WTHH 8, The Greater New Haven Chamber of Commerce and from Sundownnetworking have nothing to say but superlative things about Marco Polo and its head chef and Owner, Gary Mastropolo. The garlic bread you refer to is made from scratch. I have personally enjoyed many fine meals from Marco Polo and just assume that you might have been confused about which establishment was the subject of your critique. By the way, what are your credentials as a food critic?
