Mario's - New Lebanon

Have always loved Mario's, not this time My Short Ribs was supposed to be served on parpadelli..was served on a mashed potato with mixed vegetables..the beef was good the rest not so much. Hubby's duck which I have had before and loved, was fatty,gristley and tough. Hope this was a one time experience

I'm not a restaurant critic, but how is it that this place doesn't have at least one Michelin star? I dined alone on a Wed. evening shortly after they opened, so I got a table right away. I had the most delicious meal of my life: Tornadoes of Beef, garden salad and Creme Brulee coffee for dessert. The waitress was perfect too... helpful with suggestions, refined, calm, attentive without being overbearing, and might I add, quite beautiful too All of this cost me $98 including 20% tip, AND worth every penny. When I left, there was a line to the door.... on a Wed. night in August. The food was superb and the presentation was also. Not too shabby for rural upstate NY. You won't be disappointed. Now, critics out there... where is that Michelin star?

Such a great restaurant. Brian, our server was outstanding , We sat inside the dining room but there is also outside seating on a wrap around porch or in the bar area. The pop overs are made fresh every few minutes so they come put of the kitchen hot and crunchy!! Do yourself a favor and go th Mario's!!

We sat in the lounge, it's ok but not like the dining room. They were busy and the staff was hurried, I felt we didn't get the best of service. Food was overall good, the 2 dishes that needed help were chicken Parm and a pasta dish, both were flavorful but very dry , not enough sauce. Have been here before and it was an overall 5. Just don't miss this well established fine eatery.

Excellent meal, service and environment. Lynn and Micky do a fantastic job always
