"Mario’s Sicilian-style pan pizzas take a unique rectangular shape and have some Detroit-style elements, like a thick crust and a generous portion of cheese. Try the classic pepperoni or zippy sausage. Vegetarians will love the four-cheese pizza, topped with dollops of ricotta and shredded basil, and the cacio e pepe, made with a rich garlic cream sauce. They’re all made on a local Baker’s Field flour crust." - Stacy Brooks
"Mario’s dubs its sandwiches “heroes” (as opposed to hoagies or subs) — stuffed with mortadella, salami, and soppressata, they’re brought to new heights by chef Evan Vranian’s house-baked sesame seed loaves. Order Oreo zeppole doughnuts for dessert." - Eater Staff
"Mario’s, stationed on a a quiet block of Cleveland Avenue, serves killer sandwiches (called heroes here, in East Coast-style). Stuffed with mortadella, salami, soppressata, and much, much more, they’re elevated to new heights by chef Evan Vranian’s house-baked sesame seed loaves. The square, loosely Detroit-style pizzas are another great bet for lunch, and the fried zeppole Oreo doughnuts are reason enough to stop by." - Justine Jones

"I’d go with Mario’s, which represents a real thematic stretch for the talented team behind Estelle and also is a rare local spot that takes sandwich-making seriously." - Eater Staff
