Marco's Pizza, Kelana Jaya

Whenever I drive along the LDP highway Marco’s pizza would always attract my attention, and to think that I have been driving past the place for the most of my working life and yet not visiting the place is just horrible. So one day me and a couple of friends decided to visit Marco’s for dinner after work.


















Marco’s Pizza is really easy to spot but parking can be a bitch over there. The interior of the restaurant is quite nice, cooling and quite spacious and most importantly, quite clean as well. I was a bit surprised by the lack of customers during dinner time though, only us and another 2 tables.






























We decided to go with 2 regular pizzas with soups and garlic bread for all 3 of us. The wild mushroom soup and garlic breads were the first to arrive. Soup was fresh with chunky bits of mushroom in it. Really nice and how a real mushroom soup is supposed to be: mushroom, water and cream, then mixed up. The taste however was a little bit too plain for me, and I had to add in some salt. Still a very good bowl of soup however.


















The garlic bread was the show stopper here, surprisingly enough. Unlike those found in supermarket freezers, it was made fresh in the kitchen. Herb butter on fresh baguettes, simply awesome. Goes superbly with the soup.
















Little less than 10 minutes later, our pizzas arrived. Marco’s Supreme is topped with smoked beef pepperoni, beef salami, turkey ham, capsicums, mushroom, onions, black olives, with mozzarella cheese & napolitana sauce. The combination worked well together, and it was loaded with cheese, a plus point when it comes to pizzas for me J Funny enough the smell were not as strong as I wold like it, but a good pizza nonetheless.















The other pizza was Marco’s which has turkey ham, mozzarella cheese, napolitana sauce with an egg on top. We ordered this because it reminded us of the famous Aussie pizza in Australia, which always comes with an egg on top. This however was a little bit of a let down for us. The egg were overcooked and became too chewy, a real no-no for me. The rest of the pizza however was good. Nice thin crust with a nice crunch and the sauce was just right, not too acidic and overpowering.















All in all it was a good meal for us. Pizzas here comes in 2 sizes on the ala carte menu: 9 inches & 12 inches though personal sizes are available for combo & lunch deals. 9 inch pizzas start from RM18.80 & the large ones start from RM26. The mushroom soup & garlic breads are priced at RM8.80 each.

Here's a map for you readers. Marco’s pizza is clearly visible from LDP highway when you reach Kelana Jaya, just after the church on your left if you are coming from Puchong and opposite the Kelana Jaya LRT station. They have another branch at Bangsar Village too.
