Well I was surprised when they said 4 for the slice, but it is a decent size. Very thin crust, with a crispy edge. Good coverage of sauce and cheese. Excellent flavor. Really, can't find anything wrong with it. I'll give this one a 96.

Gentleman at the register was very accommodating. Held our food while we went on a walk and had it ready as soon as we came back. Cesar salad and MVP slice were great.

Very tasty pizza spot - they have a lot of good options to choose from and the crust was the optimal level on the chewy/crunchy scale for me. The service was quick. We came at a good time because after we got our pizza, we sat outside and saw a consistent line of people coming/going.

My favorite pizza place— not only in the city, but anywhere. Love all the topping options especially the white pizza with ricotta and mushroom. The pizza is perfectly rebaked and has the best crunch to it. Tables are always available along with parm cheese and crushed red shakers. Love it here and I will always be coming to Marinara when I want pizza.

Finally found a new pizza place that not only has a wide and unique selection, but also great tasting pizzas. We tried 6 different slices - plain cheese, margherita, Sicilian, mushroom, eggplant parm and white cheese. It was hard to pick a favorite, they were all so good. The staff at the restaurant were very friendly and let us sit and finish our pizza even after closing time. Will definitely come back!

Really, really enjoyed the food! Highly recommend the vodka parm hero as it was absolutely delicious. I enjoyed it more than standard chicken parm. I found the price point was really good as well. The cheese slice was still my favourite, though we had the Buffalo chicken, vodka pasta, and tri sauce square as well. The server was friendly and patient with us as we tried to figure out our order and the food came warm promptly.
