" What a lovely restaurant! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. I had the Lobster Ravioli as my main dish, which was delightful! The sauce was rich, and the lobster was fresh. I also enjoyed their house salad with balsamic dressing, which was a perfect start to the meal. Definitely, a wonderful place for dinner, I can't wait to come back for their lunch buffet. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Marino's for the first time and it was quite underwhelming. I tried the Chicken Parmesan, which I read great things about, but it lacked flavor. The breading was soggy, and the accompanying spaghetti seemed overcooked. While the service was friendly, it did take a while for us to receive our food, which did not help my impression. The atmosphere was nice, but I was disappointed with the quality of the meal. I may consider giving it another chance in the future, but I wasn't impressed this time around. " (*Curated Review*)

" Marino's is a charming little cafe that captures the spirit of Italian dining. The moment you walk in, the rich aroma of cooking fills the air. I ordered the Spaghetti Marinara, and while it was good, I felt it could use a bit more seasoning to enhance the flavors. My friend had the Chicken Francaise, and she loved it! The atmosphere is casual and inviting, making it a great spot for families or a date night. However, the service was a bit slow during our visit, and we had to wait longer than expected for our food. Overall, I had a nice time and would recommend it to others. " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, I had an unsatisfactory experience at Marino's. The pasta was overcooked, and my portion of Chicken Marsala was rather small for the price. I did appreciate the cozy environment and friendly service, but when the food doesn’t hit the mark, it really takes away from the experience. I had been looking forward to this meal, but left somewhat disappointed. I may consider returning in the future, but not for some time yet. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food and service at Marino’s never fail to impress! I had the special of the day, which was Shrimp Scampi. It was delectable and paired nicely with their homemade rolls. The ambiance feels like an Italian family gathering, very home-like. My only complaint is that it can get fairly busy during peak hours, so I recommend arriving early or making a reservation! Highly recommend overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Marino's last weekend. By far, it was one of the most authentic Italian dining experiences I’ve had! The food tasted incredible; we started with the Bruschetta, which was fresh and bursting with flavor. The mains were superb! My husband loved the Fettuccine Alfredo, and I had the Eggplant Parmesan, which was a standout. The service was prompt, and the staff was attentively friendly. The atmosphere was cozy and perfect for family gatherings. Overall, we left very satisfied and will return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fresh ingredients and a cozy atmosphere make Marino's a nice place for a casual dinner out. The staff was quite friendly, and the food came out reasonably quick. I had the seafood special and was pleasantly surprised with how fresh everything tasted. The only downside was that I found the prices a bit steep for the portion sizes compared to some other places in the area. Still, I would recommend it for the overall dining experience.
