Restaurants near Onehundredseventyfourth Street Playground

We had a pre-holiday dinner on Arthur Avenue after a Fordham basketball game. Both my husband ('76) and son ('11) are alums so it brought back many memories of dining experiences during their time there. Mario's did not disappoint...Val was a wonderfully attentive waiter on a very busy evening. All of the dishes were even better than we remembered. Buon Natale!

Server was helpful with my gluten-free requirements. Really appreciated! Service in general was great!

Food is excellent. Great location on Arthur Ave in the heart of that neighborhood. Staff friendly and hospitable. Pleasant ambiance. A winner every time.

Food was on point- Great service - will return soon!

It was a pleasant experience. The food was decent and the service was very professional and courteous, staff were really friendly and welcoming. We went there for our friend’s birthday celebration and when they found out it was a special occasion they bought a complimentary dessert which was a very nice touch. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, the decor was modern and minimalist.
