Friday night at Mary's Pizza Shack was awesome. The chef made my daughter a vegan pizza not on the menu (just ask) and honestly it was perfect. I had a double pepperoni with light cheese and it was also perfect. I think he added basil! We will definitely be back read more

In the heart of the Sonoma Plaza shopping district is Mary's Pizza Shack restaurant. The restaurant chain has a strong local roots. In 1959, family matriarch Mary Fazio opened up a "shack" serving up Italian homemade comfort food. That shack was in nearby Boyes Hot Springs. The shack is long gone and the family still runs their local restaurants. I'm no stranger to Mary's Pizza. Been dining at their various locations for over 20 years. My go to faves are the pizza and Mary's house salad. But I've never had anything I didn't like from them. The pizza when baked right has a crust with a nice chew and perfect combination of crisp exterior and soft interior. They use quality ingredients. I like that they use the traditional pepperoni with natural casing, it curls up into little cups when baked. Taste all so good. Mmm. Terrific, classic cheese stretch. Pizza sauce is housemade, as is the Sonoma salad dressing. I order that dressing with the signature salad which is another fave of mine. The late weekday afternoon I dropped in, our waiter was enthusiastic and engaging. But possibly due to staffing levels, he forgot to provide plates for the pizza he dropped off and the other items we requested (napkins, refills, the check). We asked the waiter that was assigned to the neighboring tables. Our waiter was covering other tables on the opposite side of the restaurant along with our table. read more

Food was ok as we ordered take our. I'm sure it would have been better if we ate in the restaurant. My major complaint is the desserts. When reading the menu it implies brownie/cookie is made in house. I was shocked and disappointed when we picked up our order and the guy handed me the brownie in a bag (see attached pic). VERY tacky! I would recommend they remove it from the bag and put in a container. read more

Amazing service and helpful staff! I've eaten here and love the food. But today I had a special request to buy pizza boxes for my grandmother. One of the staff members helped me out with my request and I appreciated it so much! You should definitely stop by and have their amazing pizza! read more

Got two pizzas and a salad to go, went to the plaza and had a little picnic! It was SOOOO good! Food awesome! However, when we went in to order, service is not great. They all come across as if they are so busy and have no patience. When in reality the place was dead and overstaffed. Would for sure come back for take out but not to dine in. read more

This place is great for families (lots of kids when we went inside) and is more of a value meal spot. We were advised to get the chicken parm which came with a crispy piece of chicken, a small Caesar salad and a side of fettuccine Alfredo. Kind of a strange combination for Italian food, but filling and definitely shareable. Good vibes and inexpensive, smells like California pizza when you walk in - definitely giving Italian American pizza nostalgia. We also got the soup salad combo with the bean sausage soup, which was mediocre (it came out piping hot and quickly cooled down so it was probably microwaved.) After 8pm they have a happy hour from 8-close, with $2 off wine and cocktails. If you're looking for cheap drinks and eats, this is a good spot. We got the breadsticks half off (likely made with pizza dough) and $4 seemed about right for the price. We didn't end up ordering pizza. For two people we cleaned out at $60 + tip, overall not a bad deal. Prosecco was only $9 a glass and Gloria Ferrer brut was $12. read more

During our recent trip to Napa, my boyfriend and I decided on a whim to take a quick detour to Sonoma -- it's only about 20 minutes away, and we figured, why not explore a little more wine country charm. By the time we arrived, most of the local businesses had already closed for the evening, but thankfully Mary's Pizza Shack was still open and welcoming. The moment we walked in, the place had that classic, cozy, small‑town feel -- the kind of spot where families gather after a game, locals know each other by name, and visitors like us instantly feel comfortable. It's charming without trying too hard, and it has that nostalgic, homey vibe that makes you want to sit down, relax, and stay awhile. Customer service was genuinely friendly, which we appreciated after a long day of exploring. Even though it was later in the evening, the staff didn't rush us or make us feel like we were an inconvenience. Instead, they were warm, attentive, and happy to have us there. If you're in Sonoma and looking for a laid‑back place to grab a bite -- whether you're with family, a partner, or just want a chill night out -- Mary's Pizza Shack is a solid choice. It ended up being the perfect unexpected stop on our little adventure. read more

We were staying in Sonoma to visit relatives. I'm a bit of a pizza snob and from the New Jersey/NYC area, and I love our pizzas. Each state has its style, and that's fine. Even so, I'm not into pretentious pizza, meaning the overly burnt, no cheese, with tons of arugula on it, so that you can't even see the pizza. You get my point. Dave Portnoy is not my fav. I love floppy pizza and unburnt crust. Mary's was just okay. Too much burnt crust, not enough cheese, and small for the price. We took a few bites and left it at that. read more

Darn it, I live in Sonoma, and I love Mary's Pizza shack on Sonoma Highway, but I've twice now recently been disappointed with the Mary's on Sonoma Square. Today I ordered some minestrone soup to go along with some chicken wings with sweet chili sauce. I could've gotten better wings at Safeway, except the Mary's wings cost around $16 and there were only 8 of them. They were tough as a boot and I had to remove half of the meat from my mouth because it was inedibly tough. I should've gotten them plain because they seem to be less overcooked, the minestrone soup is always good, I also had a reasonably good Cadillac margarita, but I couldn't give those wings more than a rating of two they were so tough. The pile in the middle of the dish was the unchewable chickezrn read more

I'm guessing a lot of the bad reviews are due to service. I saw nobody was attending to those customers seating outside so I deliberately went to the bar where I got good service. The food was pretty good. I got the chicken parm. The chicken was a little dry but otherwise good. The pasta was good. The garlic cheese bread was half off due to happy hour and was excellent. I'd go back if hungry and in Sonoma Square. read more

We have been going to this MARYS location for a few years now. It is always a wonderful experience located downtown Sonoma across from the park. We went on Friday, May 1 and we ordered the lunch festival, which was clam chowder and salad and an appetizer of calamari which comes with hot sourdough French bread and butter. The meal was amazing like always.! The owner Vince and Chef Francis really puts his heart and soul into all the food. Our waitress was Michele and she is awesome she is very helpful and an excellent server. Always taking care of anything we may need. We had such a good time that we ordered up a quart of clam chowder to take home as well as a margarita pizza which is a fantastic pizza! This is one of our go to restaurants in the area and it's always a wonderful experience. Every time we leave, we can't wait to get back and enjoy their read more

Try the chicken sandwiches. Expert made to perfection. Carefully crafted food value! If you want a moist crispy chicken sandwich here it is.

The best pizza and service in sonoma we are new to sonoma, and my wife got to experience Mary's piza by the slice in the plaza. She told me it's the best place for pizza, she has experienced in a long time. With that being said, we are now going to celebrate her birthday there this saturday. read more

I can't believe I have never reviewed Mary's! It's a Sonoma staple! I have been many times over the years, and they have always been consistent. Great service, breadsticks, salads, and pizza's. Great for families, work meetings or girls night out! They have gluten free and high protein options, so it's a great place for groups, something for everyone! An excellent place for a casual lunch or dinner. read more

Dropped by Mary's late after a full-day volleyball tournament nearby, and we were definitely hungry. The staff were welcoming, along with being prompt and friendly in their service, including being quickly helpful after we spilled one of our water cups and checking in throughout the dinner. The restaurant had a warm, down home, historic feeling which was great. The best parts of the dinner were: - Warm sourdough bread with whipped butter - Mary's signature Italian-style salad which included different textures and tastes, and was a generous portion - Mary's giant meatball which was large, tender and flavorful - Pretty long cocktail, wine and beer list Things that we thought could have been better: - The fried calimari felt underseasoned for our tastes - The spaghetti meat sauce was a bit watery - The gnocchi was not as tender and fluffy as we were hoping Overall, it was a solid experience, and we definitely left full! read more

We were on a wine tour and our bus driver dropped us off in Sonoma Plaza to grab a bite to eat. We were in the mood for pizza and wandered into Mary's. It was a warm day and although our preference would have been to sit on the patio, we opted for a booth inside. The inside decor made us feel like we were stepping back in time! We were warmly greeted by our server and she quickly brought us ice waters and sodas. After reviewing the menu, we decided to start with the Italian Wedge Salad. It was large enough to split, cold and crisp with a tangy Italian dressing. The tomatoes were especially sweet and delicious! We also ordered a classic crust pepperoni and Italian sausage pizza. It was pizza perfection! Loaded with toppings and the crust was crisp yet chewy. I don't know if I will ever make it back to Sonoma Plaza, but if I do I will definitely make a point of stopping in to Mary's for a tasty salad and pizza! read more

Not sure which place these folks with the bad reviews are going but there is no way they have dined here. The service was amazing. She kept coming back to check in with drinks, etc. The food was good. My wife got a Cobb salad, which was good. I had a big meatball and shared a pizza. Both were great. We had three kids with us, and the server was very nice to them. Their kids pizzas were good. read more

I was really impressed that I got a call back from the restaurant who found my umbrella that I'd left when there for a group lunch earlier in the day. I called to inquire after I got back home, and was told 'no' at first. After hanging up I thought I should have left my number. Then about an hour later I got a call that it had been found (that there was another group in the area we had the lunch and they couldnt' check again when I called). So that really made a great impression. That they had a way to trace incoming calls. GREAT Customer Service. read more

This is my kind of pizza shack! Clearly we didn't stop in for atmosphere, with its wide open dining area and very high ceiling, the sound really bounces around, but when it comes to food this is where you want to be. The open faced meatball sandwich is truly a meal! Those enormous house made meatballs are just the right size for the fresh sourdough bread, add the fresh melted mozzarella and red sauce and your in heaven!. Apparently sandwiches are in their wheelhouse, they also serve one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches I have ever had. Layered cheeses with a bit of sauce squeezed in between the grilled sourdough bread was the best I have ever had. Add a side salad and your set. Although the server seemed to take a while to warm up, overall the service was good. This is a great place for lunch. Cheers! read more

My husband and I were passing through Sonoma one evening back in June and worked up an appetite. We hadn't planned to stop and didn't want to spend on a fancy dinner that day, so Mary's Pizza Shack caught our eye in terms of price point. We hadn't had Italian food in a while and I was craving pasta, so we decided to try it. Upon walking in, we loved the high ceilings and the homestyle feel of the establishment. It was busy, but we were able to get a table relatively quickly. I took a brief look at the regular menu, but was drawn to the seasonal delights. I decided to go with the lemon shrimp linguini, and my husband went with the Mary's classic lasagna. Both of us opted for soup instead of salad, and chose the minestrone. It was a bit of a wait to get our food, but we didn't mind as we weren't in a rush. The minestrone was well-seasoned and flavorful, and had savory pieces of meat. The veggies were not overcooked. It was your classic minestrone and the perfect start to our meal. My linguini was the first to arrive, and shortly after came the lasagna. The linguini had six juicy shrimp and the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the kick of spice from the chili flakes, and decided not to add extra. The flavor of the dish was well-balanced, but presentation-wise, it was missing the grilled lemon as stated in the menu. However, I personally didn't feel like the dish needed the lemon, but if I returned to Mary's, I'd like to see how the lemon would change the flavor profile. I didn't get a chance to try my husband's lasagna, but he gave it solid remarks and whatever little I got to savor of the remaining meat sauce, I enjoyed. Halfway through our dinner we realized that our server still hadn't given us the sourdough bread that was supposed to come with my husband's meal, as clearly stated in the menu. We asked for it and it arrived just in time for us to soak up the leftover sauces from our dishes. It was also perfectly warm and crunchy while being soft on the inside. Overall, Mary's Pizza Shack is a good option if you don't want to spend top dollar on the other restaurants in downtown Sonoma, and next time I'd like to try their pizza slices if I want a quick bite. Keep in mind, however, that I have had plenty of top-notch pasta from Half Moon Bay to Monterey, and while Mary's hits the spot, don't expect the same level of quality or depth of flavor in Mary's pasta dishes as those from dedicated pasta restaurants who make their pasta in-house. Again I would love to try their pizza the next time we visit Sonoma. read more

I've grown up going to Mary's! My fav thing when I was little was getting the free bread sticks! Not sure if they do that anymore?! Anyway, the pizza here is always consistent, it's not my fav, but I'll eat it. But I have always been a HUGE fan of their house salad and their home made dressings (ranch, Italian and blue cheese)-yes please! If I'm there at lunch, I'll get the slice and salad combo with a soda-it's filling and very affordable! I picked up a large order for a Dr office, I called ahead and requested for it to be ready by a certain time, but asked if mine could be ready sooner-which it was! The service was good and the guy even helped me out to my car, which was very sweet! Everything I ordered was there, so the office were happy campers! read more

Mary's shack is a great place always to come share pizza with friends. Love having them catered for parties always so yummy! Came in after I had my first baby for a sit in dinner and had a nice dinner with my partner. As of recently of March/2026 if not had the greatest experience with front of house and coming inside for pickup. I waited for a server to get to me only for them to let me know someone will be available soon. I was prompted for another wait only this time to be received by a not customer service trained staff member who was rude and unprofessional handed over my pickup order. Would like to hear that this will be improved and resolved! read more

I had Mary's minestrone soup and my hubby had a chicken sandwich. The food is outstanding, and we've been coming here for many years.

Ordered delivery, provided detailed instructions to the front house. Called to learn delivered to wrong address. Driver confronted me regarding his wrong delivery and that unidentified neighbor said the pizza was for their address. A new order was generated. My order arrived with the entire crust burnt. I have supported Mary's Pizza since 1992, never have I received such poor quality meal or delivery. read more

Mary's Pizza Shack is a prime example of what happens when a casual restaurant prioritizes high quality ingredients, allowing the simplicity of options like pizza, salad, or sandwiches options to shine. My dad grew up loving it, and gets super excited whenever we have the chance to visit one, so naturally I get excited to. This visit my dad and I shared a grilled chicken sandwich and an ancient grain bowl, both of which were simply lovely. My favorite part of the grain bowls was the texture, I'm a huge farro fan, and love how it combines with other ingredients in a bowl or salad. And the sauce on the sandwich, along with the in-season local tomatoes and the focaccia, created a flavor profile to drool over. We had a bigger group, and they handled it well, bringing the food quickly. Mary's is a great option for lunch, especially to contrast the majority of upscale, more expensive or decadent restaurants in the area. read more

Good, classic pizza place. I like coming to Mary's because it's family friendly and the quality has always been really good for the pizza. I also really enjoy their house red wine. I will say, the other dishes are a toss up. Their ravioli was good but their salads and children's hotdog were disappointing. Also, when we have gone the service is lacking. Everyone is friendly, but once the food is dropped off the waiters/waitresses don't really come around to check on you and it usually takes a while to get the check. read more

Mike C again. This time it was take out. Ordered spaghetti and meat ball, and I asked for "wet". Spaghetti was dry and tasteless. Ordered a small pesto pizza, what was given was a medium pepperoni with red sauce called "Pestoroni". Manager corrected the order and I waited for my pesto pizza while spaghetti got cold. (I did not understand why pesto sauce cost more than red sauce.) I might have expected a manager to say, "Hey, pizza on us" as an offer of good faith to keep a customer, but no such offer made. So, between this awful experience and our last bad experience with Boyes Hot Springs Mary's, and sorry to say you've lost a customer for good. read more

Restaurant was clean and had a wonderful Italian atmosphere. Ordered an appetizer and a medium pizza which is a good size if you're eating with 3 people. My Diet Pepsi had a perfect carbonation.

This establishment has a lot of menu items so I recommend viewing the menu before dining, however my waitress gave us plenty of time to look it over. read more

We went in there right at the cusp of closing and one of the hosts was nice but the owner or an older gentleman became angry when we asked to have slices to go.

We ended up here on a whim after the place we originally wanted to visit was closed on a Wednesday. We arrived right before opening and were greeted by a waitress who wasn't particularly friendly, which set the tone for the visit. However, we were seated quickly and our orders were taken promptly. One highlight was that my daughter got to create her own pizza. They brought out dough, sauce, and cheese and pepperoni for her to assemble, which was a cute touch and fun for her. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to expectations. I had the meatball sandwich, and it was so soggy that it was almost impossible to eat. Overall, the food was disappointing. The service was lackluster, and I didn't feel like the waitress was very welcoming or attentive. With so many other great dining options in the area I wouldn't return. read more
