"In a Venetian-gothic building on the corner of Gloucester Road, Da Mario has a homely interior, a spacious downstairs room, and an Italian menu of big portions of pastas and some pretty great pizza. This is a restaurant where you can feel comfortable bringing a crowd, because it will satisfy most. It’s a loud, messy, group dinner spot, or a lunch with friends who aren’t going to critique the fact that they used cream in their rigatoni. " - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
