Great Italian is hard to come by and you rarely find it in a strip mall but here we are! I went to dinner with my husband, son and mom last week and have been dreaming about the food ever since. Tori was our lovely waitress and from start to finish, we had a great experience here. We waited only a few minutes to be seated on a Friday evening and the restaurant was hopping. Its cozy close quarters made the experience even better in my opinion. It's like being at your Nonna', elbow to elbow with people laughing and enjoying each other. The bar was lively, sports were on the TVs and we knew we'd chosen well.My mom and I had the cavatelli with meat sauce and ricotta- 10/10. Just wow.My husband had the meatball and bacon pizza- 10/10.My son had the pepperoni pizza- 10/10.This place is unique and love is put into everything they do. Marino is doing something special and I hope everyone can experience it.

Marino's continues to be my absolutely favorite Italian restaurant outside of Italy. Probably because the flour and many of their ingredients are imported from Marino's home town. They have a great wine list. Staff are wonderful, accommodating and friendly. It's become my home away from home. If I want a home cooked meal and don't want to cook, this is where I go. My favorites are: zuppa di pesce (seafood soup in tomato base - yum!), beet salad, chicken parmigiana, goia and fratelli pizza and cod in tomato base broth, oh and cavatelli (homemade pasta with meat sauce. The desserts are wonderful especially the flourless chocolate cake and tiramisu! I've taken lots and lots of friends and family there and no one has been disappointed. Enjoy! You're in for a treat!

The food here is amazing but that's not the best part. The ambiance is like a family dining room and the staff is awesome. Leticia took great care of us. This is in our friends neighborhood and we make excuses to join them there.

I was not prepared for how amazing the food is here. Usually, I work to write a long review; in this case, I want to be as simple and direct as possible. The calzone I had was so perfect, it was like tasing bread for the first time ever. Moreover, the portions were enormous. The beet salad and Four Corners are easily enough for two people. The Limoncello cake was cloud-light and fluffy with a decadent rich flavor. It almost melted on the fork.The layout was intimate without being crowded, and it was tastefully decorated for the holidays. The server, Angela, was absolutely superb. I asked questions, and she gave me direct and accurate feedback.I could add another 5,000 words and not cover it all. Do yourself a favor and add it to your must-try list.

"You can't get good Italian anywhere but the East Coast, and in Italy of course" said Marino's customers NEVER!Tucked away in a hidden strip mall in the middle of a residential neighborhood in Littleton, this family-owned business is nothing short of perfection.The owner is from Italy and is even rumored to make regular pilgrimages to acquire the semolina he uses to make the restaurant's fresh pasta.Go out of your way for this place, you can taste the love!

Being from Staten Island, it's rare to run into a fellow NYC-ite from just over the Verrazano Bridge in Brooklyn here in Colorado, and alas I got taken care of by Tracy! Service was truly outstanding and that was easily the best arancini I have ever had. Hats off to this team!! The vibe of the place was also very nice and it was packed until closing time on a Sunday. This is what they do and they do it best! Grazie mille!
