We stopped in for lunch and had the traditional jota soup- very delicious! Plus wine, torte and coffee with excellent service by a knowledgeable, energetic young man. Beautiful mid day break.

Unfortunately, an unpleasant experience, we had a reservation for 8:30 in the evening, a family with a child..., after sitting for 40 minutes, none of the waiters came to our table, not even with a request for water and wine, we felt uncomfortable and considered leaving the place but we didn't have a reservation anywhere else and we didn't want to stay hungry, two waiters walked around us to the surrounding tables and people who came later were served. After 40 minutes, the sommelier came to us who felt uncomfortable about the situation and we got two glasses of wine for free. After finishing the wine, no one came to ask if we could have more, or if we wanted water. The sommelier then repeatedly appealed to the waiter to come and serve us and I must say, the situation was reluctance. The food was not of the quality we had eaten here before and I got a different soup than I asked for, instead of Jota soup I got onion soup.

We chose Caffè San Marco for the best cafe in Trieste. However, the food was reasonably good, but the caffèe is nothing special, which is a big disappointment. The server spoke English well enough and was very nice.

Beautiful interior and atmosphere. You could imagine the writers and intellectual people who had visited this cafe including James Joyce. The food was delicious 😋

I expected the quality of food one typically finds at a touristy spot like this one, but the food was outstanding and the waiter we had went above and beyond to make our lunch absolutely great. Highly recommend!!

Finding the best of Vienna in Triest. Founded in 1914. A archetypical café. With everything that made it special from the start. Great food from a limited menu. At a reasonable price. Tasty and fresh. Fast and friendly service. We will return.

The staff was very charming and nice, they even speak to us a little in our native language and offered a dessert from our home country, the serving was fast and the food was fresh and tasteful. Definitely going back there.

Great ambience, decent food. Although it looks like most of the visitors are either tourists or elderly residents, it felt authentic. The library part with tables is my absolute favorite. Unfortunately, the 20% discount we should have received for booking through The Fork was not applied to the bill. But we didn’t want to make a fuss.
Antico Caffè San Marco"We are very sorry for not applying the discount; it must have been an oversight. To make up for it, we can issue a voucher for the amount that was not discounted, and we would be happy to welcome you back with us. We’re used to customers making a fuss... even when it’s not justified. 😉
