Yelp.com Review - by Evan T.

5.0 of 5 stars. This place has recently started to chain out, but this original location has the old school road food-diners, drive ins and dives kind of vibe. I'm from Miami and this is one of the only places I...

Yelp.com Review - by Michelle D.

5.0 of 5 stars. Mario's is my personal favorite pizza in the area. The crust is super thin and it's cheesy with not too much sauce. Yes, it's greasy but that's what they make napkins for. Sop that sh*t up and grub...

DELICIOUS and REASONABLE by Diane K. at InsiderPages

Yelp.com Review - by Melissa S.

3.0 of 5 stars. Ordered a cheese pizza, and some cheese cannaloni's with garlic rolls. I agree with Rob C. The food was very mediocre (though the service was very good).

Tolerable.

There was nothing there that I would call superior, but they committed no major mistakes, either. I had a pepperoni pizza, and the cheese, the toppings, the sauce, the crust, were all nondescript. The service...

Marios's is #1 in my book by mary e. at InsiderPages
