Big decline in overall experience from other visits to Arthur Ave. very touristy experience including a cheesy photographer asking too take our photo and a tablet reading singer. Chicken scarpiello had only mushrooms and very lemony. No potatoes or sausage and basically disappointing. Salad was overdressed and ice cold from a refrigerator. The pork chop was undercooked and also disappointing.

We arrived at Mario’s a half hour early for our reservation and they were able to accommodate us. We had an excellent meal from start to finish. Waiter was very knowledgeable - he was very helpful as one person in our party has a gluten intolerance. The calamari and asparagus appetizers were excellent as were the fish special (Chilean sea bass), the pumpkin gnocchi (another special), the zuppa di pesce, and the gamberetti fra diavolo. Would definitely return!

The food is as wonderful as ever. The service was disappointing this time around. The people serving water, etc were good but the waitress was aloof, disinterested, and inattentive. All the staff seemed new to me.
