We were here last weekend. We love the lunch special: a slice of pizza and a salad. It's basically worth it. If you want to really have dinner, it's not that exciting. The food is nothing special. We once ordered a pizza with fresh tomatoes. We figured, like any other topping, they would get cooked ON the pizza. But instead they were put on after the pizza was finished. What a bizarre thing. We have also had burned bread every time we show up there. I honestly don't know why we keep going back!

I try to stop at a Mary's pizza shack whenever i'm the area. I wish they expand to more locations.\r The pizza is phenominal. It's not New York Style or Chicago style, it's pizza how you expect it here in Claifornia. Great sauce, fresh ingredients and great flavor. Once you taste it you'll always come back for more. The staff is always great no matter what location you choose. The Combination has just the right combination of toppings. The Bruschetta and Ravioli are also very tasty.
Good food but over priced in our opinion

I grew up eating this pizza at the original restaurant in Boyes Hot Springs/Sonoma and after eating pizza all over the US and in many different countries I still crave the Mary's Combo. The crust is perfect, the toppings plentiful and the sauce has just the right amount of spice to make it the pizza to end all pizzas. My wife loves the garlic chicken pizza. These guys know what they're doing, there isn't a bad thing on the menu.

The Mary's Pizza Shack pizza and pasta is amazing. It is our neighborhood spot. They are family-owned and you feel like family when dining there. The staff is so nice. And, all of the food is homemade. You can tell. Try the pesto bread sticks and mud pie too.
