    If you're looking for a romantic Italian restaurant outside of the standard chain places, look no further than Mario's Place. Make a reservation ahead of time on weekends, as this place can get packed. We unfortunately didn't get a reservation in on time, but got lucky with seating at the bar and had a great view of the live music playing that night (last weekend of the month, there are live bands performing). No entree pics, as I forgot to take them (rack of lamb off menu special & Linguine Checca-- both were amazing). We also tried the roasted fingerling potatoes and a corn soup as appetizers, which were fantastic as well. This place wins for ambiance, service and food quality.

    I love Mario's place! I love the vibe and energy of this spot. Everything I've tried on the menu is delicious! I tried the hamachi crudo and a chicken caesar salad recently for the first time. The caesar salad is very authentic and hamachi crudo had a lot of tasty flavors that I haven't experienced before. It was the perfect light dinner along side with their bread! Kat the bartender and Phillip the host are very welcoming and make the dining experience fun to look forward to. I want to come here more often!

    Where to start?!! if I could eat here everyday, I would!!! 2 Generations Italian family owned and operated restaurant and bar in downtown riverside. Located directly across from The Mission Inn hotel! Over the years we've made this a mini vacation for us by staying at the mission inn and dinning at Mario's place at lease for a dinner or 2... -excellent service -food is what bring us back every time!! some of the best things I've ever had in my life.. easily the best Caesar salad, shrimp scampi, some of the best fresh pastas, and even steak such as filet done right every time! -prices are low in my opinion for what you get compared to many other restaurant's. -location as I mentioned earlier can't be beat! Specially during Festival of Lights "thanksgiving to new year's" -parking is either street or a structure on orange.. or you can valet at the mission inn if are willing to pay for it. -the bar area is pretty fun.. some of the employees at this location been there for over 20 years +!!!!! Don't bother dinning at the mission inn restaurant's.. everything we have tried at their Italian, Mexican, steak house, and the mission inn restaurant was super mediocre! GO TO MARIO'S!! You wont regret it!
