Mario's Original Pizza & Pasta

Best pizza nd subs around

I love this place… I even come to buy pizza dough

I absolutely loved their cheese steak sub I brought a few weeks ago by phone. It was so good! ☺️. I'd recommend this place to anybody who wants a good tasting sub.

The crust and cheese were actually good! But this pizza was ruined by the sauce. It tasted like low quality tomatoes being covered up by a ton of garlic and sugar. So close to being a great pizza!

One of the best pizzas in Baltimore!

Pizza is the best in the city

I’ve been coming to Mario’s for years, and it never disappoints. The pizza is always fresh, the crust perfectly crispy, and the sauce has that classic, homemade flavor that’s hard to find anywhere else. The staff is friendly and the service is quick, even when they’re busy. It’s the kind of local spot that feels like home—whether you’re grabbing a quick slice or sitting down for a full meal. Easily one of the best pizza places in town!

I LOVEEEE THIS PIZZZZZA ITS SO GOOOOOD, The crust strikes a nice balance between crispy and chewy, and the sauce has a tangy, homemade flavor that pairs perfectly with their generous layer of melted cheese. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or ordering a family-size pie for dinner, the portions are fair and the prices reasonable.

What really stands out is the service — friendly staff and fast turnaround even during peak hours. The atmosphere is casual, with a nostalgic charm that makes it feel like your neighborhood go-to spot.

If Heaven had a smell, it would be Mario’s Pizza.

Let me paint the scene: I walk into Mario’s after a long, soul-snatching day, thinking I’m just gonna grab a slice and go. Baby, I ended up staying for AN HOUR. The vibes? Immaculate. The aroma? Life-changing. The service? Like getting hugged by your favorite auntie after a heartbreak.

Let’s talk about the pizza though, because LORD. I got the Margherita, and I swear to you—every bite was a spiritual experience. The crust? Perfectly crisped on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside, like it had been kissed by Italian angels. The tomato sauce wasn’t just sauce—it was a love letter. Sweet, savory, tangy, rich—like the tomatoes were handpicked by someone’s Nonna that morning and blessed with a prayer.

Now don’t get me started on the cheese. Baby. BAAAABY. That fresh mozzarella was melted into pure silk. Creamy, stretchy, slightly salty, and browned just enough to give you that lil caramelized crunch. I almost cried. I actually paused mid-bite and whispered, “Wow.” Loud enough that the table next to me asked what I was eating. I told them, “Just the best thing to ever happen to my taste buds.”

And it doesn’t stop there. I tried the pepperoni slice, and that spicy, crispy-edge, perfectly cupped pepperoni? Whew. It had me thinking about my ex and wondering if this is what real love should’ve felt like. The oil? Shimmered like gold. The flavors? Had me kicking my feet under the table like a middle schooler with a crush.

✨Bonus points for the garlic knots. They were fluffy, buttery, and garlicky enough to ward off vampires and bad vibes. Dipped in that house marinara? I ascended.

The owner, Maria herself (YES she’s real!), came out and checked on me. Sweetest woman ever. You can taste the passion in the food. You can tell this isn’t just a business—it’s a legacy.

So yeah. If you haven’t been to Maria’s Pizza yet, cancel your dinner plans. Like literally stop what you’re doing and GO. Your taste buds deserve joy. Your soul deserves comfort. And your belly deserves Maria’s.

10/10. Would sell my left AirPod to eat here again.
