Stopped in to try some of their pizza and asked for two plain slices to go. Was told by the child working behind the counter that they didn't have slices right now. And that was all. At no point did he tell me we have some pies in and it will just be a few minutes or anything like that. I will not be back here. read more

Son and friends went to dinner here and were disappointed with the portion sizes. Thought it was over priced. Food was ok nothing special.

Full disclosure: I've been coming here since I was born... literally. There is a reason for it though - consistency. I've never walked away with a bad meal. Yes on a rare occasion, someone in training may have screwed up an order but you're talking about one in several hundred. Plus they do whatever to make it up. Tommy has done a fantastic job with this establishment and it's sad to see him go. I hope the new owners don't get rid of his recipes and prices. That's what keeps people coming back. The portions are great and prices are better. Their pasta sauce is authentic and their pizza is perfect. They do an amazing job with the Sicilian pie as well read more

Love this place! Always consistently good food! This is always our go to place when we are in Stamford. Grew up going here and they never disappoint us! Thanks read more

Average to good but nothing great that would make anyone yearn for or look forward to the next visit.

The food is very authentic southern italian Neapolitan style. nice thin crust 12 and 16 in pies. The mini canoli and ricotta cheesecake a must try. Family run. Soccer always on the tv and great pace for Sunday brunch smorgasbord. Bravo Mario! read more

ok, On Wed we ordered 9 large pizza - cheese, mushroom, pepperoni and onion & peppers for a tennis match at Newfield Swim Club. There were 22 guys who were all very satisfied with the delicious variety. thank you read more

I've been going to Mario's for 25 years, and my guest ,since it's opened. We didn't recognize anyone there. No Dana was not there. We ordered a special with salad and pasta. The salad was wilted and small. The pasta came out first. That was horrible. The sauce was straight from the can. The chicken dish returned and remade was inedible .We inquired about new ownership or new chefs. The staff assured us it was all the same. Not true, Thomas sold the place. Whoever is running it now is not doing a very good job. . So very sad. read more

This place has phenomenal pizza. Amazing crust, delicious sauce, and great toppings. Definitely will be back when I'm in the area!! read more

Mario the Baker provides excellent food at an affordable price. We have been going here consistently since we moved to North Stamford from Glenbrook, and becoming frequent customers of this business has been a blessing. The culinary team at Mario Baker cares about quality food; they care about the customer too. We have family from Easter Connecticut who always order the lasagna when they are here and love it. Their discounts are always very generous and they are very consistent in advertising them. This is an excellent business in the Mid-Ridges, North Stamford, Newfield, and Turn of River areas of Stamford. read more

BEST PIZZA IN CONNECTICUT! GREAT SERVICE AND AMAZING STAFF - Perfect spot to pick up for a night in, party, or go out for a casual dinner. They have amazing entrees as well - their chicken and eggplant parm is amazing! Would recommend 10/10 read more

Very courteous wait staff despite her being busy. Awesome calzone and stuffed pasta. This restaurant has a traditional feel and you feel at home enjoying food with family and friends. Will be back when in the area. read more

This is the best restaurant I've gone to in years. The staff is very cordial and always asking if everything was ok as we were eating dinner. The establishment is very clean and organized. Great place to bring the whole family! read more

Pizza is delicious very good food I really enjoyed it will definitely come back here again

Food was ok but horrible service. The server literally plopped the dishes on the table, walked away and only came back with the check. No napkin, no "do you need anything else?" She looks so miserable I think she should find a job where she doesn't have to interact with the public. Maybe the pizza and counter service are better but I don't recommend table service. read more

Nice Italian food but the lights are too bright, they hurt my eyes. It is the reason I dont eat here anymore, even though I love it!

I am not happy. Order was over an hour late. I live 10 minutes from there. I could not pick up, as I was waiting for company. Fried calamari was soggy, limp. Chicken order scarp tasted wierd read more

Bad service, won't go again. I recommend not wasting your time or money in this place.

Forty two years ago I went on a date to my friend Marios new pizza place in Stamford. We both had a great time, and loved his great food. Hand tossed pizza is becoming a lost art, and never seen here in upstate NY. I have recently had the great fortune of reuniting with the same young lady I dated in 1969. I am hoping a trip to Stamford, a dozen roses, and a trip to Mario's will be as memorable as it was then. Great Italian cuisine is missing here in TV dinner land. I'm glad to see it still exists in my hometown. read more

Always delicious. Thank you Dino and staff for keeping everyone full during this pandemic!

I have ordered delivery from Mario's for over 20 years. I am so so disappointed. The entree's, which I paid $16 for are disgusting. It came burnt and such a small portion that I was embarrassed to serve to my guests. Will not , and I repeat, will not order from there again! Crazy expensive and I don't mind paying for quality, but this is to much. Will call vila italia next time! Much Much better!!! read more

Best Pasta Fagioli in Stamford!!! I've been coming to this restaurant for years. It's pizza is more of a New York style as opposed to the thinner crusts, different but just as good as the best pizza in Stamford!!! Great family restaurant!! But i swear, if you go and don't get the pasta fagioli, you will lose sleep over it. read more

We are a little picky about our pizza so we order it extra well done. I'm sure it's annoying for them to hear, but they do it every time and we absolutely love it. Unfortunately there are not a lot of good pizza places in Stamford. We are used to Fairfield whee there are a lot of good options. Stamford seems to have a lot of options by they're not necessarily good ones read more

The pizza was pretty good. The service, on the other hand, was awful. Our waitress appeared miserable and despite multiple attempts to engage her in a friendly way, she retained an air of annoyance. Our meals were also staggered with the earliest arriving about 5 minutes before the last. That's just poor form to have someone waiting for 5 minutes while the there at the table are eating. We won't be back. read more

My wife and I have been enjoying the food at Mario's for about 25 years. Food is very good, Pizza is excellent and if your looking for a family atmosphere - this is your place. Some of the people serving in this restaurant have been working here as long as we have been patronizing it. Today - was the topping on the cake. We stopped last night for dinner. there was a line for take out - "Halloween". We were served portly even with the high take out demand. I left or dropped my wallet as I was leaving. I didn't even know I had lost it yet. The owner of Mario the Baker delivered my wallet to my house today. Went out of his way to get it back to me. This tells you allot about this retardant and the integrity of the people working there and running it. My father was in the restaurant business -- he used to say ' where goes the owner - goes the business". Great food -- great family! Thank you!! read more

No, just no. For starters, the food here is very bland. My boyfriend got a very dry unappetizing salad to start which I refused to try. I myself ordered mozzarella sticks and had one before passing them over to him, only because he's a human garbage disposal. They were so gross, almost all breading and luke warm-cold... No stringy cheese mozzarella sticks for me. They definitely came out of a box, but that being said the ones I get at Costco soar past these with flying colors. When the pizza came, I again was not impressed and ended up leaving hungry. I know it was the end of the night, but it's a small place, and the server started putting up all the chairs around us. Once all the chairs were up he began vacuuming all around us!!!! He even started at the table next to us!! We could not have any type of conversation for ten minutes while he vacuumed! I wanted to go tell him to stop but was convinced not to. Definitely not coming back. read more

Excellent brunch buffett. Not fancy, but delicious! Large variety of well made Italian-American classics!

This is one of the few places left that still serves iconic New York style thin crust pizza done just right. Great crust, great sauce, authentic cheese, yummy toppings. What more is there to say. Whenever I get up to Stamford (usually to visit my in-laws) we try to escape and have a lunch here. There is other stuff on the menu besides pizza and some of those sound pretty appealing, but I've never ordered them. The lure of the pizza is just too strong. There isn't much ambiance and very little parking, but it is soooo worth a trip. read more

Good lunch spot. Don't go there if you are high maintenance/demanding. Good genuine food, limited menu bare-bone service. Makes a great spot to go hang out with your buddies to chat and socialize. Tip is CASH only! read more

Bland pizza, soggy pasta, terrible service. I returned to Mario's after about 10 years, and was reminded of why I stayed away. The food was very the worst I've had in a long time. Tomato sauce / gravy had no flavor. Arrived at our table cold after "a mix-up in the kitchen" and my friend watching our plates sitting on the counter as others got served ahead of us. A huge disappointment. They will have to step up their game if they want to compete with new restaurants in the area. There are better choices very close by. read more

They clearly need to work on there customer service skills. Ordered food gave a few singles in my payment and the driver was rude and literally rolled his eyes at me. No thank you etc. not ordering from them again. Food was not so great. read more

Strange place. It's almost like they'd rather you carry it out than eat in? Unless I missed an overflow area, there are about 6 parking spots so it's kind of hard to get in and out of... service is spotty (they make you get your own drinks, even beer or wine from the cooler) and almost acts like you're bothering them. They keep the red pepper flakes on the tables, but you have to ask for a jar of parmesan... and then lastly, although they take credit cards, they won't let you tip on the credit card. They expect the tip to be in cash (very annoying). Again, it's just a strange place in my opinion. The pizza was ok, nothing I'd ever crave. Had the food been as poor as the rest of the experience, I'd give it one star. read more

Ordered Mario Special. Tasty good but there was something about the taste that was weird. I dont know what it was. Service is slow. Took 50 mins to get pizza during friday late lunch time. No one was around. Pizza is only $16 that good price. Maybe I will go back again to try something else. Parking is limited. read more

I have been going to Mario's since it opened although I had not been there in 15 years because we moved. I can only say it has gotten better. The pizza has always been a staple but now they have added dozens of new items such as hot oil pizza which I had. I don't know if they are capable of putting out a bad meal. Dana the waitress does a great job taking your order without writing anything down and delivering it as requested. I can't remember going someplace when my wife and daughter cleared their plates (pasta). Now that we are back in the area we will be back often. It is great, fresh reasonable Italian food with great service. read more

We've tried several pizza places in Stamford, and so far this place is our favorite. We love the thin crust with calamata olives and hot cherry peppers! So tasty. If only the slices were just a little bigger. When we call ahead, the pizza is consistently ready within 15-20 minutes. read more

Great pizzaria, incredibly accomodating--had a birthday party here a while back, and thee customer service was wonderful!

The best thin crust pizza with fresh ingredients -- it has always been consistent and a neighborhood favorite. There are many pizza places around but this place definitely stands out. read more

This is my thanksgiving tradition pizza. Every year for 10 years, we come here after father-son thanksgiving day football and go to town. The pizza is always good and the atmosphere, while boring, is very family friendly. Mario's is nothing special, but its consistently good pizza for family and friends if that's what you're going for. read more

A Stamford classic! We've been celebrating this restaurant for as long as I can remember. In all the years we've gone, we've never had a bad experience. Delicious, delicious pizza. I'm more of a thin than thick crust pizza fan but let me tell you their Sicilian is the bomb! read more

Looking for pizza all evening and decided on Mario's. It was the best pizza ever. Whole family enjoyed it. Pizza was thin just like mom likes it. read more
