| - For us, Mario's is our favorite delivery pizza choice.
In our experience, the young girls who take your order have a hard time hearing you over the phone (it's quite loud in the restaurant); but once you get past that, you're good to go.
I despise chains and cheap-o pizza (Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa John's etc) and love Mario's. It tastes very "New York" to me, but is not quite as crispy as a good NYC slice. I recommend Mario's White Pizza, it is delicious. Also recommended in the entree category: the Baked Ziti Sorentina.
However - beware of their salads... their Greek salad is a joke for $8.99. It should be more like $5.99 for the size and ingredients.
I definitely think that Mario's a bit overpriced no matter what you get... c'mon $35.00 for two (simple) pizzas? (one medium, one large). It's a bit much.
I don't believe we have ever had any issues with delivery. In our experience it always arrives quickly and is usually still piping hot.
We happily pay the $1 or $2 delivery fee - even though we live within walking distance of the "other Mario's" in Matthews, in Matthews Festival.
I guess the fact is, in the Charlotte area, we are deprived of really great pizza, especially those places that deliver, so Mario's fits the bill quite nicely. It's not perfect, but it will do for now.
