Stopped by in a fluke and got some meatballs, marinara and ravioli to go. I rather enjoyed the cheese ravioli. Meatballs were excellent and sauce was very good. Cute and little dine in area.

Delicious food that only a family-owned business can make. Affordable and tasty. The service is great. So many menu options, as well as a wonderful dessert and frozen to-go section. Great soda selection as well!

Been here twice. Thought the first time was a fluke. Will never go back. Low quality. Not sure how this place gets these rave reviews. Disappointing for being so conveniently located in the neighborhood.

We just moved here and Marino's is so far one of our favorite things about our neighborhood. We have been twice and everything we have tried has been fantastic. They are also very helpful and pleasant folks! It's our new regular spot for take out. The pizza sauce is some of the best I've had.

Great hole in the wall deli with good food, great prices and extremely nice staff of people that try to know you by name. It has a great atmosphere with older decor but nice and cozy place with extremely quick service.

I live about an hour away, but I was in the area a few weeks ago, so I stopped in. Can't say enough positive things about this place! The staff were incredibly friendly and engaging, the atmosphere was great, and the food was amazing! I will definitely be back many times!

Sandwich was solidly constructed and I am always here to support a family business but the fact is you microwave/nuke your food for customers to see behind the register. These must be pickup only reviews or you have to come in at certain times when the food is prepped. The Sysco foodservice Block&Barrel chips were not it — would’ve rather paid less or had a selection.

They had to microwave the frozen hoagie bread and half of the sandwich ingredients for the Marino sub. The person assembling the sandwich did not wear gloves. We wanted to love it but unfortunately will not be coming back - definitely had some concerns with quality and cleanliness.

Not many small Italian delis left these days. Gotta love Marino's. Have a sandwich and take some Cap with you for later!

The "subs" are 60% warm soggy bread and warm soggy lettuce. The flavors of some of the meats are good, but it's a shrimpy little sandwich, not a sub, and the way it's prepared makes it honestly pretty disgusting. I live nearby and tried a number of different sandwiches over maybe ten visits over the span of a year or two, always hoping I maybe was just catching someone on an off day, but no. This is just how they roll. A lot of people say the pastas etc. are great. I haven't tried any of that, but a lot of people also say the sandwiches are great, when in fact they are even worse than Subway. Shockingly. So. Guess take that for what it's worth. It's one of those local institutions than I have to assume stays in business on reputation/tradition, not the current quality of the food. Sadly. Some people seem to like it, which is cool for them. I wanted to support a local independent business but just can't do this one.
