Potatoes or spaghetti with meat sauce come as a side with most entrees. There are several desserts available, but we usually pass and instead enjoy the complimentary chocolate-covered ice cream balls that are served over dry ice. The dry ice and the steak stones at one time seemed like affectations. But I've grown to enjoy them. They make Mary's unique.
Service is friendly, efficient and a little informal.
The sound of one waitress yelling an order can be a bit grating. Reviewers do not notify restaurants in advance of their visits. The newspaper pays for all meals.
