Welcome To Mario’s

We have been serving home made traditional food since 2004 which makes us one of the most popular restaurants in the area. Winner of several local awards, we always aim to keep our standards incredibly high.

Marco is following in his father, Mario’s footsteps, who become a chef and worked in the trade for over 35 years, who in turn followed on from his father, Antonio, who’s pizza dough recipe is still used to this day! The whole family was born in Naples and moved to the UK in 1997, and regularly travelled back home in search of fresh ideas and new inspiration for our menus.

We buy locally sourced top quality ingredients as well as using our trusted Italian suppliers to give a real authentic taste to all our dishes. We also stock an amazing selection of wines from all regions of Italy.

We have lots of brilliant choices on our A la Carte menu as well as having special boards changed on a regular basis. The restaurant has a rustic welcoming feel with a brilliant atmosphere, we pride ourselves in top quality standard of food and always achieve top marks for hygiene.
