Hands down the best pizza in Stamford and that’s saying a lot given the competition. Mario the Baker has been a staple for locals for decades, and there’s a reason people keep coming back. We love bringing our New York transplant friends here. They only know the Harbor Point and downtown spots, which are great options, but once they try Mario’s, it instantly becomes their new go-to.
We’ve had more outings, parties, and celebrations here than we can count. The food is consistently excellent, the pizza is unbeatable, and the surprising thing for first-timers is that it’s not just a pizzeria! The full Italian menu is legitimately fantastic. Add in the warm, family-style atmosphere and the classic artwork on the walls, and it’s just one of those places that feels like home the second you sit down.

This has been a long standing favorite of many who live in North Stamford. Pizza and pretty much everything else is very good. The only reason why four stars and not five is the parking lot.

Love this place but my recent experience was a bit negative so updating my review – food was great but the waitress serving my friend and I was a bit rude.
Still one of my top pizza spots though!

Great first visit—daughter loved her wedge and I asked them to put together a pasta dish not on menu and they totally complied. Then they gave us is a free lobster tail pastry! Really nice authentic place.

There is a parking lot attendant here which was a relief because the parking lot is very small and busy, so we were impressed with that. We entered and had the option to sit anywhere we liked, the waitress brought over menus and took our drink order. We asked for a little more time when she came back to take our order and this seemed to frustrate her. I ordered the sausage and peppers grinder, it came out first and was a little burnt. A chicken Parm pizza roll and eggplant pizza roll were the other two orders and they came out a few minutes after my grinder. The waitress brought us our check and started cleaning the table not even confirming if we were done or not. I wabted to order desert and she didn’t even care.

Ordered a Pepperoni Calzone for delivery that was really good. The dough was soft cooked perfect. I didn’t realize the sweet treats that were on the dessert menu but next time, I’d love to try something.

Bait and Switch. Online prices substantially lie quoting 20% less than they charge. Wouldn’t even honor that price when alerted. Disgustingly unfair practice when we’re all watching every dollar and choosing which competitor is best

Disappointed. The chicken tenders were undercooked and clearly just reheated. The menu advertised 5 pieces, but I only received 4. Overpriced for the quality. To top it off, the customer service was poor – staff were unfriendly and unhelpful. Would not return.

The pizza here was absolutely fantastic, with a thin, crisp crust and just the right amount of sauce and cheese, making it a great example of classic New York-style pizza. The overall quality of the food was excellent, and everything was served fresh and hot. The only downside is that parking in front of the building is somewhat limited, but it’s well worth the effort to stop by. I’ll definitely be coming back for another slice!
