Been going here for years. Used to be a 5 star in my opinion but service has definitely decreased ever since covid. At least the food still tastes great.

I have been living in Nassau County since 1987 and have been going to Pollos Mario restaurant since it opened back in 2004. I could tell you I have never seen the type of friendly and professional service that is given by the employees, the place is spotless clean and the food is 10 out of 10 just excellent. my compliments to management who made this my favorite restaurant year after year.

The food is okay, little pricey for the portions. They are always nice when ordering however they are always busy and rushing.

We were hungry. I was meeting my two friends from Queens. I am a Brooklyn boy. Last week we did Columbian but the food was average at best. We looked at the abundance of good reviews of Pollos Mario and decided to give it a shot. The place has parking and is guarded by an attendant. The restaurant is clean with lots of tables. Surprisingly it is not noisy. Our waiter Alvin was a young aspiring man who was making his way through a trade school. He had worked at the place since he was 16 and really knew his job well. He never told us what was good, only what people always ordered. He was very attentive to our needs. He is a real asset to this place.The menu is rich with various Columbian dishes. I really wanted the chicken and rice with beans. My friend ordered fish. We also ordered guacamole with chips. It was so good. My chicken dish was amazing. The chicken was very tasty. To my surprise, it came with Chicken Soup, traditional Columbian, and that again was really well done. My friend's fish was really good as well. We were really satisfied. They make a garlic sauce that is extra and not really obvious on the menu. I highly recommend ordering this to go with everything you could possibly put it on.I told my friend we were not doing dessert. He agreed until Alvin listed the desserts. I am a sucker for good Flan. The dessert menu is small. There is a Flan, Tres Leche, and a Brownie with or without Ice Cream. We saw the Tres Leche and it looked amazing. I had the Flan. This was the most amazing Flan. The custard was rich thick and delicious. I cannot get it out of my mind.We had a moment to talk with the owner who is Columbian. He, along with his partners has created an amazing place. It is no wonder it has so many positive reviews.Thanks for a wonderful night out. This place rocks!UPDATE: The following week. This does not generally happen, but we went back for more. The experience was equally good and even more fun as we knew some of the wait staff.Just to clarify, The fish dish my friend had was not as expected, that said, he was totally surprised at how good the dish was. He thought it was overcooked, however, it was cooked to perfection, crisp on the outside and tender and moist on the interior. He ate it to the bone. This visit he had the Rotisserie Chicken as did I, no surprise, it was amazing. We added the garlic sauce. Again, the Flan is so amazing. The parking attendant takes his job seriously, I love his bright lights.Parking: They have their own guarded free parking lotKid-friendliness: This is a serious family place and is responsive to kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Im handicap and it was easy to navigate this place

Excellent colombian food! We have been to many colombian restaurants and this by far has some of the best flavor and quality. Service was okay. Some staff were great and some seemed not to want to be there and mixed up our order. So was a bit delay to get our orders right.

Good food, I had the half chicken with yellow rice with a side of beans but I was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture until I was almost done.
