We stay open very late on weekends, and there's picnic-table seating out front under the sign. Our patio is open daily, with plenty of customer parking.

I grew up in Arlington, and for over 50 years Mario’s Pizza House and Grill has been part of my life. After all this time, it still has that same personal, welcoming feeling the moment you walk through the door — the kind of atmosphere you just can’t fake. Their steak subs are absolutely world‑class. I’ll put them up against any major sub franchise without hesitation. The flavor, the quality, the way everything is put together — it’s on a different level. And the fact that you can get…

First visit here and it was amazing! Me and boyfriend always pass this hidden gem when going to Petco and we decided to stop here for lunch. We got their famous steak and cheese which is to die for. We also got hotdogs, fried chicken, they’re amazing soda glass bottles, and the cheesecake & red velvet cake. They’re reasonable priced in my opinion for the fresh authentic food they provide. Love the vibes here. Will be coming back.

Been eating here for almost 50 years and decided to treat the family to the best pizza ever on Christmas! When the owner found out I came all the way from Switzerland to share this with my son he gifted me a Mario’s baseball cap. Mario’s is going on to its 70th year in 2026 and may it endure another 100 ! ! ! Thanks guys for an amazing experience 🙏🏼

My husband and I were in D.C. looking for a great steak and cheese, and I remembered Mario’s was nearby. Parking was easy, we ordered quickly, and had our food within 10 minutes. The steak and cheese was absolutely topnotch so, so good! While we waited, we grabbed milkshakes from Carvel ice cream , and I’m officially obsessed with the peanut butter milkshake. I’ll be dreaming about that one! Highly recommend this spot. the restaurant is super cute, and the seating area is just as charming.…
