    I hosted my mom’s retirement party at Mario’s Sports Bar & Grill, and I truly cannot say enough great things about our experience. From the moment I walked in, every single person we encountered was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and eager to help. They made the entire process so easy and completely stress-free. The space itself is beautiful, and the décor and atmosphere were absolutely perfect—it really elevated the entire event and added so much to the overall experience. The food and drinks were amazing, and we received so many compliments from our guests throughout the night. I definitely recommend the Grecian Style & Garlic Parmesan Pizzas they were so good! I can’t recommend Mario’s enough and am already looking forward to hosting our next event there. We will definitely be back!

    Husband and I went to Marios for the 1st time last night. Due to dietary restrictions, I asked for modified sandwich and they accommodated me graciously. Sophie was our waitress/bartender. She was kind, helpful and attentive. Husband had a bloody Mary and wings and he said they were both delicious. We will definitely be back!

    Love the new location, the Philly fries were awesome! Smothered in queso cheese really made them great. Upcharge for mushrooms and green peppers wasnt worth it since so few were added. We also ordered the buffalo chicken pizza which wasnt what we were expecting, it was like a cheese pizza with ranch drizzle. No buffalo spicy flavor and also the kitchen forgot to add chicken, for which we got the pizza half off. Be aware they add 3% if you use a credit or debit card. Definitely will be back to try more menu items!

    Fantastic place to eat. The place was very busy but the bartender was polite and courteous, doing her best to take care of everyone at the bar and fill drink orders for the rest of the restaurant. Food was hot and really good. Servers were polite and made sure we had anything else we needed before departing.

    Stopped into Mario’s Sports Bar & Grill for dinner and ended up stayin longer than I planned. Food came out hot and tasty, good size portions for the money, and the wings were my favorite. Lots of TVs so you can watch the game from pretty much anywhere, and the staff checked on us often without being pushy. Feels like a laid back spot to grab a burger, a drink, and catch some sports with friends

    Pizza was great. Just wish they had seating on the main floor. Way to many steps for older people because you have to either go upstairs for seating or downstairs for seating.

    The food was great when we finally got it. Our server may have been new because our order got "lost." She did come and apologize and told us what happened when she realized 45 minutes into it that we still didn't have our food. She brought out one plate and said the other would be done in 2 or 3 minutes. It was a bit longer than that. I would definitely eat here again.

    We want to let you know that we were very pleased with our stop last Saturday. From your beautiful building and ample parking to the gorgeous floors, the friendliest staff and the awesome food. All 3 choices were excellent. Best of luck to your continued success.
