" My visit to Mario’s was fantastic! The calamari appetizer was cooked to perfection, and the homemade marinara sauce was the best I’ve had. My main dish was the lasagna, which I found rich and hearty. The one downside was that the atmosphere can get a tad too loud on a busy night. Overall, I’d highly recommend it if you’re looking for a delicious, authentic Italian meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great little Italian spot in Charleston! The linguine with clams was the best I have tried in a long time, and the portion was generous. The atmosphere was casual and inviting, perfect for a night out with friends. I do think the service could have been a tad quicker, but the friendly staff made up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious homemade Italian food! I can't express how amazing the gnocchi is; it's a must-try! The ambiance is great for families, and the staff is incredibly helpful. Even though we visited during peak hours, they made sure we felt taken care of. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at Mario's was delightful! The food was simply incredible. The pasta e fagioli was hearty, and the lasagna was rich and filling. The only downside was the restaurant was quite crowded, leading to a slightly longer wait for our food. However, the service remained exceptional throughout our visit, and I can't wait to return for another meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Mario's the other night! It was a delightful experience. I ordered the tagliatelle alfredo, which was creamy and delicious. My friend got the pizza, and it looked divine. The ambiance was nice; it felt like a real Italian restaurant. I just wish they had more dessert options, but what they had was good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve tried many Italian places, but Mario’s stands out for its warmth and quality. The garlic bread was fantastic! Every bite made me nostalgic for Italian dinners at my grandmother's house. I ordered the bolognese, which was hearty and comforting, just like home. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow, so just be prepared for that. But the food makes up for it! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was mostly good at Mario's. The staff was friendly, and the food was tasty. The bolognese could have used a bit more seasoning for my taste, but the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I really appreciated how quickly we received our orders. " (*Curated Review*)
