We stopped for lunch with 4 kids ranging from 4-13 years old. We opted against the buffet, but easily found menu options every like. The gelato was a huge success! If you’re looking for somewhere not steak or seafood, this is your place!

The service is amazing but unfortunately the food is not as good. It is an average italian restaurant. I had a pizza and it had way too much basil on top and it was only a “Margherita Pizza”.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that you enjoyed our excellent service, but we are disappointed that the food was not up to our usual standards. We strive to serve the best meals with the best ingredients available, so we hope that you will consider giving us another try in the future.
After a wonderful day at Moody Gardens we wanted to find a good restaurant somewhere else on the island. We went to Mario’s and had a fabulous dinner. We got a cheese pizza for an appetizer, Rachel C helped me select the grouper for my entree. My family of four all had excellent entrees. My son ordered from the kids menu and it was delicious (chicken fingers with spaghetti instead of fries). I separate the great from the good restaurants based on the quality of their kids menus. And then we went for dessert. The Italian cream cake was fantastic. I think the cannoli was great too but my wife wouldn’t let me try it. My kids split the cheesecake and enjoyed it but I would stick with the Italian desserts. It was a long, leasurely dinner. We will be back on our next visit.
Hi Mdpkrpro2016 !
Thank you for taking the time to write your review! We are happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed your dinner and desserts with us! We look forward to seeing you again!
The food was absolutely delicious and our server, Rachael C., was so helpful and knowledgeable about every part of the menu. From start to finish, we were taken care of with quality service. The manager hacked on us numerous times as well. The whole staff couldn’t have given us a better experience!! We will definitely be back!
Thank you Madison! We couldn't be happier that you had such a great experience with us! We are always happy to hear that our customers are enjoying themselves and that they are well taken care of! See you soon!
We showed up with a party of 10 without a reservation which is always “iffy”!
The Mario’s team quickly set up a table and got us seated within 5 minutes. Let me add that we had a 3 and 7 yo with us and some picky adult eaters.
Our waitress, Rachael C was amazing. She made some recommendations for appetizers and quickly got the drinks out for the kids(with lids-thank you so much)
The pizza was amazing as were the Viva Italy, Pasta’s, citrus Shrimp salad and the kids meals. Rachael was very attentive, funny, patient and helpful. She is a true asset to Mario’s.
The kids finished up with some amazing Gelato but the adults were stuffed.
Thank you for a wonderful meal and family experience.
