We ordered takeout on Christmas Eve, and the food was delicious and piping hot! Very affordable, and delivery was quick. Huge thanks to the wonderful staff at Mario’s for their terrific customer service. Highly recommend! 🍝💛

Wow! I love veal. The last time I had veal this good was at a small place in Brooklyn with about 8 tables. That was about 45 yrs ago. I was like 10 years old. Some people call it milk fed, others call it abuse. Whatever you call it, if you love veal, this is the place to go. AMAZING!!!

This is absolutely my favorite place to eat in Ocean County! We only found Mario's a short time ago, but we love it here so much that we have been introducing friends to Mario's. It gives us an excuse to come back! Clean restaurant and the food is Awesome!! Parking is a little tight, but everything else is perfect! Eat here just once, and you'll be hooked!!

Had this place twice. Originally on a recommendation by a coworker and today went in for lunch with my boss and group from work at Community Options. Very picky about pizza being from North Jersey originally, but Mario's has not disappointed at all. Reason Im giving it 4 out of 5 stars on food, is not a huge fan of the wings but otherwise great.

It was a take out order. I only ordered from here because of a recommendation. I will post photos so you know what I’m talking about. What was supposed to be a chicken cheesesteak turned out to be steak. Was not expecting to find a piece of bread in between the sub. The pizza was not cooked through that it had to be put on the barbecue to crisp up. I don’t mind paying for food that is good. The 2 children’s meals could have been less penne. Maybe the establishment is better when you eat in.
