Food is reliably good. The only thing I've been disappointed by is I recently tried their calzone and they used Thai Basil in it. I hate the taste of licorice and the thai basil made it taste like I was eating a licorice calzone. 🤢

We went there because of the reviews and as we walked in we saw the awards on the wall. Our table ordered lasagna, eggplant sandwich, and one of us ordered the Greek salad. It was such a disappointing the lasagna looked like someone's vomit. The eggplant sandwich was soggy and I couldn't see any eggplant anywhere it was just the sauce and cheese on top of a bread. The salad was bathed in vinegar. Everything was so disgusting that we didnt eat it.The only reason I payed was because I didn't think they would believe us and I didn't want them to acuse us of trying to get a free meal. Sorry I didn't take any pictures. Eat at your own risk.

Price for pizza and wings $40 should be a crime ! I love the food but I hate how expensive it is when dominos is doing $7.99 any medium pizza.

I recently dined at Mario's Italian Cafe when I visited my family in Indio California. It was my first time eating dinner at this location. We all had a very pleasant experience. We were greeted with a smile. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Our food was very tasty, plentiful and hot. I enjoy drinking wine with dinner. Mario's offers $5.00 glasses of wine. Happy Hour is $4.00 a glass until 5:30pm. We did not feel rushed. The restaurant was full. I noticed many carry out orders as well. The music was enjoyable. There are also several TV's in the restaurant. There is plenty of free parking available. I recommend Mario's Italian Cafe in Indio and look forward to returning on my next visit to California. Our table ordered calamari (not pictured) as an appetizer. We all agreed it tasted great!

I had the lobster and crab cannelloni on fettuccine alfredo w/their amazing $5 glass wine (cabernet sauvignon), completed by a most delicious dessert of tiramisu...and it was all incredibly sublime.
It's been about 25 years+ since I have been to Mario's, and now I regret waiting so long. The food is made to absolute perfection, and the staff is very friendly and attentive.
Overall a complete A+ Italian dinning experience.

Came here for quick bite to eat before heading to Stagecoach. The smell of delicious Italian food hit you once you walked in. Service was awesome and the food was even better. Our new spot for food before we go the venue.
Older style Italian restaurant with great food and large portions, including the 🍷

Excellent service and supper here. The pizza and ceasar salad were delicious. Pizza crust was crispy and not greasy at all. The Portions are big and the glasses of wine for $5 were huge!! The service from Vanessa was OUTSTANDING, she is one of the reasons why we were recommended to come to Marios, and we were lucky to have her service. We can’t wait to return. Thank you for amazing service and delicious food.

I went there for lunch. It appeared that they were short staff because it took a while for them to bring water to the table. I ordered the pizza lunch special . I received my salad and garlic bread before my pizza. The garlic bread was cold, and I had to send it back three times, and each time, the garlic bread came back cold. The garlic bread was not so good, salad was ok. However, the pizza was really good.
