"I want to start by saying that I love Marion’s Pizza and have been a loyal customer for years. The pizza is fantastic, and I have always enjoyed dining there. However, my recent experience renting a space for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary was quite disappointing. The trouble began with the manager, Melissa, who was incredibly rude when we asked for extra plates. She threw a stack of the flimsy, small paper plates at my wife, scattering them across the counter and forcing her to pick them all up. This kind of behavior is unacceptable, especially from someone in a management position. Additionally, the room we rented was not cleaned after the previous party. We had to bus their cups and scrub all the tables before we could start setting up for our own event. This is something we did not expect, especially after paying to use the space. We also faced issues with the setup. Despite the restaurant not being busy, we were not allowed any extra tables for our pizzas and drinks. With 15 pizzas and several drinks, it was a struggle to find enough space. While we didn’t expect help with the setup, a bit of hospitality from the manager would have gone a long way. We were spending a significant amount of money supporting Marion’s, and the lack of consideration and basic customer service was disappointing. Overall, while I still love the pizza, I cannot recommend Marion’s for hosting events. The experience left much to be desired, and I hope they address these issues for future customers."
