We were fortunate to have the owner of 41 years serve us. You have not experienced Boston if you have not been to Mario's. Hands down best homemade Italian food. Lobster🦞 ravioli, meatballs, desserts and more were all delicious! We had an amazing experience, and it truly is an experience. The setting is intimate and feels like you’ve been invited into their home for dinner. The service was something every restaurant should emulate. The food was delicious! We split the rolled lasagna and ravioli...

My family and I decided to dine in the other night and I can truly say that it was one of the most authentic Italian and Italian American experiences I have had. The atmosphere alone makes you feel like you’re at Nonnas cooking. The food was light with good quality ingredients and delectable. I will be back soon!

I loved the vibe of a rustic, homey, Italian restaurant. Walking into the restaurant was like walking into your aunt’s house, I was uncertain at first but felt immediately welcomed. We were the only ones being serviced at the time and the waitress was incredibly kind and took care of us. The food was great, one of the best lasagnes I’ve had, and I feel like you get a lot of food, making it worth the price.

Update: 6/2024 we still LOVE this place and the staff is so heart warming. It's a welcoming environment. I added my favorite lasagna and my hubby gets the chicken parm with Alfredo sauce. My husband and I went here for dinner this past Wednesday and loved it. Not only do you get authentic Italian food but the staff takes care of you like a guest in their home. A new favorite. We'll be coming back!
