" Visited Mario's after hearing rave reviews, and while the ambiance was delightful, certain dishes didn’t quite meet my expectations. I opted for the seafood pasta, and the flavors fell a little flat. The bread was excellent, though! Service was attentive but many reminded us to rush through our meal since it was packed. I appreciated the vibrant atmosphere but wasn’t as impressed by the food as I had hoped. I might try something different next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mario's offers a genuine Italian experience, but my last visit was mixed. The service was friendly and quick when we were first seated, but it slowed down significantly after the main courses arrived, which was disappointing. The food, however, was excellent. I had the chicken alfredo, which was rich and satisfying. The atmosphere is inviting with live music enhancing the Italian feel. I would recommend it, but it may not be suitable for those in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mario's is an institution! The décor instantly brings me back to my grandparent’s dinner table. The first time I visited, I ordered the lasagna, which was huge and tasted like it was made with love. The layers of pasta and meat sauce were perfectly cooked. The service was attentive, yet not intrusive. My friend had the fettuccine alfredo and she loved it. The only downside was the wait time, which was a bit longer than expected but worth it once the food arrived. If you're looking for a classic Italian meal in a charming setting, Mario’s is where you should go. " (*Curated Review*)

" My dining experience at Mario's exceeded my expectations! The baked rigatoni was outstanding, and I can't get over how much I enjoyed the garlic bread that was served alongside. It's perfect for mopping up sauce! There was a pleasant vibe with the music adding to the charm of the restaurant. Service was quick and efficient, and the server was knowledgeable about the menu. I appreciate that they have family-style portions too! Great for sharing with loved ones. I'll definitely recommend it to others and come back for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Mario's after hearing great things about its authenticity, and it didn’t disappoint! The eggplant parmesan was fantastic, and the marinara sauce tasted homemade. My only complaint was that the service was a bit slow during peak hours. However, the ambiance made up for it; the live music added charm and made us want to linger longer than planned. Though it was crowded, the staff handled it fairly well, and I noticed they really focused on everyone getting the best experience. I’m looking forward to coming back to try more on the menu!

" Mario's has been a staple in my family’s dining history, and it's where we celebrate special occasions. Always impressed by the quality of the food, especially the cannoli dessert, which is by far the best I’ve had. The staff knows how to treat their customers, making you feel like part of the family. However, the last time we visited, the service was a bit slower than usual, which was a tad disappointing, but I understood it was a busy evening. The atmosphere is always lively though. Definitely going back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Mario's was quite the event! From the warm bread served with marinated carrots to my hearty portion of rigatoni with meatballs, everything left a lasting impression. The staff was very attentive despite the bustling crowd, which was appreciated. I must admit I was overwhelmed by the menu selection and had trouble deciding, but the server helped me choose a classic that was extraordinary. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, but the live music was quite loud, making it hard to hear my dining partner. Overall, a fulfilling evening, and I’ll be eager to return! " (*Curated Review*)
