FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions and general information about The Mark Restaurant / The Mark Olympia.
RESTAURANT: Affordable, stylish yet casual neighborhood setting, for every day The Mark has a small nine table dining room with a full bar and a large outdoor patio area. When needed there are two additional private dining rooms and a larger banquet space that can be reserved for private functions, or for even larger events, the entire restaurant can be reserved.
FORNO / PIZZERIA : Roman style Pizza Al Taglio and Focaccia. Simple, classic recipes – real fresh food without unnecessary pomp and circumstance.
Our Pizza alla Romana is both delicious and healthy. We use a precise mix of flour, water, sour dough yeast, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt. With a dough maturation time at 48 to 54 hours. During this process enzymes and yeast work together to breakdown sugars making our Pizza more digestible. Our guests love our crust that is crisp, but also, aerated and light.
There are no hidden animal fats in our preparation, the only oil used is extra virgin olive oil. We use our sea salt with moderation. This keeps our vegan pizza’s while quite tasty, much lower calorically, and exceptionally heart healthy.
