In Short
Housed near Wayne State University, Mario's is one of Detroit's culinary institutions. Chandeliers and wood-paneled walls give an understated refinement to the restaurant. This is Italian in the Old World sense of the word. The extensive menu features lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo, and a plethora of veal and chicken dishes. Standbys--parmigiana, Marsala and chateaubriand--are also served. Try chicken Mario, sauteed in a house-made sauce.
