“A mystery. Outstanding ambiance, looks and feels like nice casual cafes we ate at in Milan and Tuscany. Once inside can't believe it's in an outdoor mall in NC. Friendly service. Chicken marsala with mushrooms as good as it gets. Hearts of palm salad not on many menus but was delightful. The customers seemed to be enjoying a relaxed, quality dining experience without the pretense of a fancy place or buzz of a large busy place. The mystery-why was it only half full on a Friday night?“

“The food, service and ambiance was excellent.“

“amazing food, cooked to order, quickly with great service!!“

“My husband and I have been going to Marios/John’s place for over 30 years and have never had a bad meal. John has done an excellent job from his managers to wait staff and to the wonderful tasting food. I recently had a private party there and every person raved about the food and the hospitality of the restaurant. I cannot thank John enough for making everything perfect. You are definitely missing out if you don’t go there and have a wonderful dinner.“

“We made a reservation for Valentine's Day dinner. The host at the door was great. We were seated as soon as when we arrived. Starting with the food, the Bruschetta was very good. My fiance ordered Chicken Parm, which he enjoyed. I ordered Chicken with rigatoni pasta in a cream sauce, it was delicious. The cheesecake was also good although it was a smaller portion than we expected. Now for the service, it took some time for a server to come to the table and bring our drinks. The appetizer came pretty quickly. We never got the salad we ordered. Once the entrees came, we told them to cancel the salad. We asked for more bread but never received it. Our server never returned to the table to offer drink refills, check to see how things were, etc so we flagged down another server who took over and did a better job.
Overall it was a good experience and we would go back.“

“Met a gf for lunch here, visiting family in town. And it was really great. I got a salad with grilled salmon. She got gluten free pasta. Both were delicious!! Service was great! Manager came by to check on us. It's an easy and light atmosphere. You don't have to get pizza. They have all kinds of stuff. Not a huge beer selection, but that's fine. They probably rotate their taps. Would absolutely recommend.“

“2nd time here because the first time was excellent. This time, however, was lacking. I ordered the calzone. The cheese was at one end, the frozen spinach, canned mushrooms and raw onions were at the other end. Not edible.“

“best pizza in town and the BIGGEST!“

“Great food and great atmosphere.“
