Customer Reviews
Wow, Great food, great price, great timing..I will start by saying im not easy to please and this place did the job! The pasta was creamy and had a good fresh taste the pizza was sweet and perfectly cooked, I love sweet pizza! I read on the comments prior to ordering that the garlic knots were a must try and I second that! Lastly my kid ate all 4 chicken tenders which means they were indeed tasty. This was my first time ordering from here and im definitely going to order again! Between there great prices and the great food you cant lose here! New favorite pizza spot!
Mario’s Brick Oven Pizza is the kind of place that reminds you why local spots matter. The brick oven gives the pizza that perfect crisp‑chewy magic you usually only find in Brooklyn, and honestly, this might be the best pizza outside of Brooklyn—and I don’t say that lightly. The staff is always friendly, and they’re fast. You place an order and somehow it’s ready before you even finish deciding what show you’re going to watch while eating it. It feels like the kind of pizzeria you went to with your dad back in the day—no fuss, no attitude, just great food made by people who care. With all the big chains popping up everywhere, Mario’s is the local alternative that still feels real. Give them a try when you need pizza—you won’t be disappointed.
Consistenly wonderful food. Photos are Sausage Peppers and Onions on the best roll ever. Updated 11/18/25. Don't pass up this restaurant! You'd never know what great foods they have. Wonderful flavors. Great Pizza!!! Passed my son's fold test. Great sauce and just right amount of cheese. My fave is sausage. Nice plentiful flavorful thin slices. I've tried all lunch specials - superb food - Great price. Fave pasta is Consistently wonderful. Penne Alla Mario. Fave salads are Baby Green, and Mediterranean. OMG and the Eggplant Rollatini! Hot subs are great. There's a drop in pizza area and a the restaurant area.
I'd describe this place as a beautiful hole in the wall with the best Italian food I've had in a long time (even better than the 5-star Italian restaurants I've been to, tbh). It's menu is *very* generously priced, especially with the portion sizes and quality. Their chicken Parm and baked ziti are out of this world. The mozz they use is delicious. They have a beautiful store front, but you walk into their pick-up pizzeria. Through the pizzeria you'll find a door to a small dining area with about 7-10 tables. It's cute and clean, just not what you'd expect by the food & storefront. So, don't go for the atmosphere, simply go for the next level, authentic Italian food and good service. They also deliver on doordash!
I never received my order. It was delivered somewhere else. 3 times I spoke to Marios, 4 times tried to contact Door Dash - which Marios " recommends". I asked for a refund after getting a run around for 40 minutes. This morning they posted the payment to Marios for $28.20. Literally the WORST service Ive had in years. And they processed the card!! I recently moved to the area. Its beyond disappointing that they made NO ATTEMPT to refund my money as it was their mistake. Marios blamed Doordash, Doordash blamed Marios. They dont warrant even one star. Order from another restaurant....you'll be thankful you did. And of course, they won't even respond to this review. Susan Dangler
