Marino’s Italian Restaurant - Authentic Italian Cuisine in Bellflower, CA

Where do I begin, place looks amazing is a cute mom & pop Italian restaurant with vintage atmosphere which i love!! My server was Nicole, best service ever!! She was very detailed about the entrée they serve which made it easier for me to choose since it was my first time going. We ordered an exquisite red wine bottle that Nicole recommended and my was it , they start you off with some vegetable soup some toast and after some salad , then came the main corse and my pollo fettuccine was really creamy and delicious. 10/10 will be returning and bringing along my sisters.

Marino's has been my favorite restaurant for decades. Everything on the menu is amazing, and the owner is magic when it comes to picking great wines. Be sure to save room for dessert, as their cheesecake is incredible.

It made me feel like I'm dining in an italian home. It's cozy and the servers are so friendly and welcoming. I love the pasta I ate and so is the lemon ricotta cake

This is a place I should’ve gone much sooner, but glad that I finally did. The bread and the Minestrone soup that comes with the pasta are delicious dishes that keeps you occupied before the main entree. I got the manicotti and..I didn’t really enjoy it. To be fair I never tried manicotti so I basically ate it blind. My girlfriend got the pasta with artichoke hearts and…she didn’t like it so she gave the dish to me and I immediately loved it. The sauce has a nice blend of tangy and spice (not spicy) and the anchovies complement the red sauce so well. It turned out my girlfriend thought it came with white sauce even though it said red sauce on the menu. Next time I would love to come back and try their lasagna and chocolate cake.

I've been coming here since old man Tom ran the place, and now his son's semi-retired—they've been going strong for over 43 years! Marie's the best, she makes all the pastries, Shawn and Jose are great servers too. Sunday lasagna is amazing, the best I've ever had, and that chocolate cake is unbelievable. If you're nearby or craving Italian, you gotta come here. It's way better than any other Italian place around.

Nice family run business. Not loud so we don't have to yell at each other to be heard. Food and service are always very good. Beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. Our family always enjoys going to Marino's.

We love this place! It's the most authentic Italian food we've had since we moved back home to Cali from Central New York. Marie and Shawn always take great care to make that even on a busy night we get checked on regularly and that the food comes out in perfectly timed courses. Dining there isn't just delicious, it is an experience, eating as a family, enjoying the homey feel of the place, and taking time to savor every bite. Hands down our favorite Italian spot in all of So Cal!

I just want to say, who charges for convenience fee o_0 I was shocked to see this. To be honest I felt rushed to eat my salad. I was asked about twice if I was done. I mean if you see me eating I guess I'm not done. So I just dumped the salad bowl into my plate so she can remove the bowl Love this place but please don't rush me when I'm eating. I'm not on my 30 minute lunch break. The host (gentleman) was great very attentive. We spilled water and my boyfriend tried to clean the table and seat. However we missed the ice on the floor but the gentleman was so nice about it. I watched how rapidly he worked the floor, amazing from seating guests to cleaning tables and even offered to box my leftovers
