Always a great meal and atmosphere. My son and I both had steak tips over rizzoto with a fig and balsamic sauce. So good.

I had an outstanding experience at Mario's! I had never been there before but took a chance for a birthday dinner one oh, so happy I did! We chose to dinner at the large, beautiful bar where Todd have us exceptional service, preparing drinks off the menu when requested. He guided is in our dinner choices as well. My dining partner has the chicken francais; I enjoyed the Chicken Napoli which was a flavor explosion in my mouth! My biggest concern is that it was so good I will have a hard time ordering anything else when I return (which will happen again and again and again)! This place is highly recommended...based on my experience you won't be disappointed!!!

The best shrimp fra Diavlo, ever made. The menu is limited because they have perfected each dish. Marios makes the best "italian" food anywhere in Western mass. Make sure to bring your wallet. If you want quality, you must pay for it.

Attended a meeting, the buffet was great along with coffee and desert. One server took care of delivering coffee desert and taking the plates away. She was efficient, friendly and observant. Private party space, rear dining rooms and a lively bar scene make for a pleasant atmosphere.

Nowadays, it’s hard to find a place that’s truly worth the money, but Mario’s exceeded all my expectations. From the start, I loved how easy it was to make a reservation through Google—super convenient, especially for a busy weekend night. The food was amazing! I ordered the special of the day, which included a salad, pasta, and fish, all for just 25. Incredible! And we haven’t even touched on how delicious everything was, plus the staff was so welcoming and attentive. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending Mario’s to everyone!

Great atmosphere. Had linguini and clam that wasn't even on the menu. Almost had my shrimp scampi that was on the menu but they said they would make it for me so I gave them a shot. It was excellent! Received 2 meals out of it as it was appx. a half of pound of linguini. Wine menu exceptional, appetizer-wanted a second. And dessert... large cream puff filled with ice cream, strawberries and chocolate sauce ... Really! Spent 90 with tip but well worth it. Dinner prices were 16 to 23 which is finely priced for the portions. Try it once and you will return. Anthony Jarvis. PC Richard's & Son
