    Food was your standard Italian fare, which is exactly what we were looking for. Biggest knock was the fact that the menu wasn’t available to us. Apparently they had decided to do a limited pre-fixe menu for the holiday but we were not aware of this.

    I live 45 minutes away & went here because my friend lives near by & picked Mario’s. We ordered mini rice balls for the appetizer, and they brought out the regular size ones. The rice balls were frozen in the middle. When clearing the appetizers, the busboy spilled the entire cup of cocktail sauce on my friends lap. The main course I ordered was flounder français, and the first bite of the fish tasted like the ocean. I will say the waitress was very accommodating, professional, and pleasant. The manager did compensate us by taking something off the bill, but I think it was just a series of unfortunate events, and I won’t return.

    The only reason why I even put stars on this place is because I had no choice. I was searching for a place open on Christmas Day for dinner since we had just moved literally two days before and didn’t have time to prepare anything for the holidays. Mario’s came up as open on Christmas Day taking reservations. A few of the earlier times said booked, so I made reservations for 7PM. We drove all the way over there, which is not close by the way. And it’s closed! I don’t understand how a restaurant does not update their holiday schedule and allow reservations to be booked on a day that they’re closed. I’m sure I’m not the only person that this happened to! We had to scramble to find another place last minute. Very inconsiderate and unprofessional.

    We made reservations for Christmas Day that were confirmed. When we drove up to the restaurant they were closed. I absolutely understand being closed on Christmas, but, don’t take my reservations, confirm it and not accommodate us. We should have at least called me

    Disappointed with this visit to Mario’s. My family and I have been going here for years but the last 2 visits have not been great. First of all did not know there was going to be a special Xmas eve menu. Second all of our meals tasted microwaved not fresh. When the bill is close to $300 for 4 people i expect better

    3 of the 4 of us had chicken panini and thought it was a little on the dry side. Mentioned to server and we do not think our comment was brought back to the kitchen. No mention from restaurant as we left the establishment They do not open for lunch anymore and that was a popular place for hospital meetings. I doubt we Would we go back. Rated it higher than we should have.
