Where to start? This restaurant has a one-page menu: a few salads, a few over-priced steaks, some fish... There is nothing on the menu that is very interesting, let alone cheap. The atmosphere is fairly good, but the food just can't back up the ritzy feel. I heard from someone that used to work there that the chef can whip up just about anything you ask, but why can't he put some of them on the menu? I want to see what is possible, not try to invent something. The whole point of going out to eat is not cooking (and therefore not having to think off the top of your head about what you may want). The waiter was not exactly friendly, buy wasn't overly rude. All in all, don't go to Mardini's.    [19 Nov 2000 13:47:15]

I have been to Mardini's four times now, and had the best time! Great food! Three pages or more now. Yes, higher priced but well worth it, mouth was watering even after done! Mr. Mardini is a charmer, and treats everyone with respect. The second time I was there my friend had a birthday party, he brought us the most scrumptious birthday meal with extra plates, and a humongous smile!    [27 Aug 2002 20:48:01]

Mardini's... A Mediterranean delight!!!!!
I can tell you from experience that Mardini's represents the style, taste and gastronomic delights of the Mediterranean region in, little downtown Snohomish. Where to start? The charming restaurant has a wonderful menu selection. The presentation is always mouth watering and portion size will surely leave you with a lunch for the next day. I tell you, the service has always been top of the line! With their big smiles and warm welcomes, you're sure to go back to visit and enjoy their great selections of wine and food. I love the ambiance in the lounge where there is always entertainment most of the week and great smiles from the staff. Bottom line is that the food is great and the prices are more than reasonable and I love the atmosphere at Mardini's. They always make me feel at home. Try it! I think you'll come back for more.    [23 Sep 2002 14:48:35]

bad wait staff and so so food
I have been to Mardini's about 7-9 times. Mostly lunch and several for dinner. Every single time I have been there the wait staff has been slow, unknowledgable of the menu except one time on Valentines, 2007 at 4:00 PM. This is the only time I can say our food was excellent. Husband had rabbit, I had chicken. The waiter was better this time. Overall-the wait is extremely poor and the food is non memorable.    [16 Jul 2007 18:25:42]
