I think I've had everything on the menu. Never had a bad dish. Old school Italian and love it. My mom always brings me when I'm in town. Smells great and very clean. read more

One of the best inexpensive Italian restaurants in the area. Owner is always there. Great waiters and waitresses Try the chicken parm. The best! read more

Seriously the best pizza I have ever had in my life. It doesn't even matter what kind you order. Honestly they are all amazing. Sicilian slice was my fav. They have been making the best pizza for years and years with consistency. Do not pass this place up read more

Absolutely love this place. I used to live down the block from here and would go a few times a week. Their slices are top notch. Always fresh and they dont have that "it's been sitting around let's reheat it" look. Their Pesto Rosso is probably my favorite fish their however I can't complain about anything. Service is excellent, prices are decent, and atmosphere is nice as well. Wish I still lived closer because where I'm living now nothing really seems to compare. read more

Fusili pesto rosso w/chicken YUM and some of the best chicken parm I've had. Portions here are huge! I always have enough for 2 meals. I am excited to keep trying different things since I have so far not been disappointed with anything. read more

The food is very good. It is New York - lots of competition, but when I am in the area I love to go to Marinara. The staff is very friendly. read more

We had a great experience at marinara! The food was delicious and their service was great. Nothing was overly expensive. We ordered the marinara pizza and it was fantastic. I love all types of pizza and it was a pleasant surprise that it came on a focaccia loaf Sicilian style with tons of marinara. If you are a sauce fanatic this is the place to go. The only reason they lost a star was because of the layout of their place when you first walk in. It seems like it is take out only, but then you walk in a little further and a waitress will seat you. It took us about 2 minutes to figure this out. Either way, try it, you'll love it. read more

I always make my own dish- rigatoni all a vodka with breaded chicken cutlet and melted mozzarella can't go wrong. The Gorgonzola salad, eggplant rollatini, and buffalo slice/pinwheel are also among my favorites. read more

I love this place; 2 minutes from my house. The food and service is good. The owner is outstanding. It's a real local family place. The staff knows me and my wife by name. We come here at least once a month, with our 1 year old daughter. read more

ordered two slices while we waited for take out. the chicken Marsala slice was just OK, really runny. the plain slice was decent, nothing great. take out: HORRIBLE. I ordered penne alla vodka, had really no taste and it was loaded with scallions! scallions in Italian?? gross, and it was $14. my bf had eggplant parm, the sauce had absolutely no taste. tasted like jar sauce and the eggplant itself just tasted like cardboard . for $45(including the slices) it was WAY overpriced and definitely not worth coming back read more

The eggplant pasta with ricotta is just amazing. I could eat it every day. And the salads are terrific. This is an unusual spot in that their delivery is just as good as when you eat in. read more

Best pizza in Nassau County! I love every single type of pizza I've ever had from them. My favorites are the buffalo chicken , regular slice , or anything with vegetables on it. One night I wanted pasta and I even ordered the spaghetti and meatballs from them and it was delicious. Customer service is pretty good. They are also really fast. You won't spend a lot of time waiting around for your food. The prices are okay, can't complain about that. If the quality is good I'm willing to pay. I'm usually eat the pizza and leave the crust type of person, but at marinara I finish everything. Definitely visit this place! read more

Went there last night. Crowded. Moneywise the same as everybody else. Enjoyed it. The waitress was fantastic. Nice atmosphere. Plenty of parking. Would go there again. read more

The food was delicious. My kids had a Ceasar salad. I had a chicken parm with penne. My husband had penne ala vodka. We will definitely come back when I'm in the mood for Italian food again. The space for sit down eating was a comfy fit but you acan also order to go. read more

Great Italian food at a good location. We got a mixed bag for lunch - some slices, salad/pizza, tomato/mozzarella/bread and a couple of garlic knots. All were fresh and tasty. read more

The best Pizza in New York! I am one of those who doesn't like pizza from like Pizza Hut kinda place. Their cheese is amazing not rubbery like some pizza stores their cheese is mozzarella cheese. If you like thin crust pizza that is pizzalicious then this is the place you wanna eat! read more

Pretty good pizza when it's fresh. They never heat up the slices enough though when you go in for a slice. Overall the pizza is good. Definitely recommend if you're ordering a whole pie. If you're going in for a slice just make sure they make it hot enough for you. All of what I said goes for all of their pies. All are good when fresh, recommend their grandma, regular and Sicilian, in that order. read more

The volume this restaurant experiences is no joke tons of people are walking in all noon and night and none of them seemed to be not pleased by the food a couple people will review one thing they had from here after one experience and then make judgement ... i mean come on you cant try any of their pizza and think this place isn't great unless your use to average and ok pizza and like it over fresh hand made all natural pizza ... there isn't much to say but this place makes good all natural fresh pizza and has great service and a nice restaurant great work marinara's this place could serve as an example for all kinds of restaurants especially italian/ pizza stores/ restaurants read more

One of the best Italian places I've eaten, only problem I have is They don't deliver I'm sure they'd double their business.So if I can't get out I have to use other guys, when I can I will drive and pick up my takeout. If they ever deliver I'd give the a 5 + read more

I grew up around the block from here and somehow have only had their pizza. This is our regular spot to order pizza from and it's always good, probably the best in the five towns. read more

My family and I have been coming to Marinara for years. We are local and come here once a week. Their fish specials are always delicious. Also their waitstaff are friendly and helpful. My daughter is 3 and needs her regular slice warm, not too hot, and it's never a problem to have it cut in small pieces for her. I love their linguini primavera. It's a meal I wish I could eat everyday. Their salads are generous and you can always ask for shredded mozzarella on top. Make sure to have the special cappuccino to end you meal because they have an authentic Italian espresso machine which won't let you down, it will pick you up! read more

I will not waste my time or money on this place again. Took my 'rents here for Father's Day, because they order the pizza frequently. The waitress, from the beginning, took a tone of voice as though the restaurant were doing a huge favor serving us. Her tone was curt, even surly. The food was uniformly mediocre, except the pizza, which was worse. The pizza was not cooked properly, and when my mom complained, instead of trying to rectify the problem, the waitress insisted it was made the same way it always is, then asked "would you like something else?". Let me get this straight; you give a customer bad food, then offer to sell them even more of it? I was ready to cancel my order, except that it was already coming out of the kitchen. It is clear that the staff don't know anything about customer service, from which I can only conclude that the Owner didn't teach them. read more

This restaurant is my wife's favorite pizza place in Hewlett. We practically order here every Friday night to make the end of the week easier for us. The food is great and the seating is a nice way relax and eat in. My only complaint is that the do not deliver. read more

The escarole & beans and the whole wheat primavera bar pie are so amazing that I find myself craving them both too often. Every single time my husband and I visit his parents, we must have a meal from Mariana. This place is a total neighborhood gem and I wish they had a location in Arlington, VA! read more

This place is incredible! Woo! I've been on a pizza kick for the past month, and I discovered Marinara a couple of weeks ago. Two slices of pepperoni and extra cheese. Each and every day. Yay! Yes, my arteries are probably clogging, but so what? The pizza is exceptional. I'm thinking that I'll replace the pepperoni with sausage tomorrow. Woot woot! The food is fantastic. read more

Had the Rigatoni Florentine and Fusilli Pesto Rosso...both were delicious. Pizza is pretty good too.

Great pizza. Got a large with extra cheese and the chicken rolls are very tasty. Didn't do any of the entrees and such but would def come back read more

Our favorite pizzeria in town. However, tonight was unacceptable. First, we had to ask 3 different servers for marinara sauce. Our first waiter did not ask us if we wanted anything drink. He did not inform us that another server will handle our table. When we get our check, he informs us he was on break and smirked about it. Not a way to treat a customer. read more

My go to spot. From the pizza to the entrees everything is outstanding. The buffalo chicken pizza is simply amazing

Perhaps the most famous well known pizzaria in all of five towns. It's good. For long island. People from Brooklyn and nyc think it's crap. But for long island it passes the taste test. They are busy so there are constant fresh slices made. read more

No sugar coating this review: Marinara hands down has the best pizza I've ever had. It is a solid 9.5/10 and if I didn't live 2 minutes away, I would easily make a 20 minute drive here to get it because good pizza(atleast this good) isn't easy to find. There isn't too much sauce, there isn't too much cheese and the bottom is always crispy. The crust is kinda bland tho if there's no leftover sauce or cheese on it. The Sicilian slice is 10/10 and I wouldn't change a thing. As for the dishes, they too are great. My favorite is the chicken fiorentina. The penne vodka is a close #2. I've been coming here for 15 years and I don't think I'll ever stop giving them my business despite the rising costs of pizza ($2.35/slice, $2 for a bottle of soda). The pizza is too good to find a substitute. Do yourself a favor and come here read more

Now this is pizza! Now this is pasta! This place is what it means to come home, and their food never let's me down.

The food at this place is excellent, service wonderful. I had the penne a la vodka and it was very tasty. Two other people I went with had the eggplant rigatoni (not sure if that's spelled correctly). The place is spacious comfortable, and pleasant. I don't live nearby or I would go more often. read more

By far the best picture food ever. The pizza is amazing as well as the wraps and salads! Highly recommend

I've beem to several pizza shops in my area comparing eggplant parmesan. Marinara has the best one. Yum!

The worst dining out experience of my long life .... I've been going to and recommending marinara for over twenty years and have ordered the same basic dish for most of those years, penne gambieri. I order it with linguini instead of penne...usually no big deal and ask for the shrimp to be grilled (assuming as always that these are Fresh Shrimps ... Not the boil in a bag Costco variety. This dish runs about $25 ...so okay came to the table with a large amount of mushy soft linguini, about 6 pieces (small) brocolli and FIVE NICKELSIZED SHRIMPS. I complained to the waitress and she said the shrimp were small because they were broiled and rolled her eyes ... I said that's ridiculous and please tell the chef because the food was inedible. He came back, very rude, not apologetic and said there's 8 shrimp in the dish. NOT. This is where the chef should apologise and offer another dish. He came back 10 mins. later and ceremoniously presented 3 tiny shrimp on a huge platter! I asked if this was a joke! I refused to pay and especially resent the rude and crude service. read more

I've eaten here alot. Pizza really is awesome. The Italian dishes that arent pizza are just mediocre. Employees are horrible to customers about 4 out of 5 times which kind of sets up an atmosphere where everyone is walking on egg shells. I carefully get my slice of pizza and try not to ruffle any feathers. read more

Good Italian good but kind of expensive. It's right by my family so I do go there a lot .

I absolutely love Mari Nara!! They have the best chicken parmigiana platter!! I go there every year for my birthday and I tell all my friends and family to go as well. They also have great baked ziti, ziti slices, and Sicilian slices! I highly recommend Mari Nara!!! read more

I came in for a silician slice which was 2.60 (seems like all the slices are the same price because my cousin had a buffalo chicken slice for the same price. Anyway, my slice was a little to chewy for my liking but it was good, my cousin said her slice was great. The decor is very nice and it looks like a great place to host an event. I would differently come back again. read more
