Three separate rooms combine to accommodate the local crowd that frequents this establishment for great pizza, salads, sandwiches and Italian specialties. While waiting for their orders to come to the table, guests stay entertained by studying the décor – each wall is covered with murals of beautiful landscapes and pictures of famous visitors from the past. The band box over the entrance is filled with animatronics figures that dance to the jukebox, the sight of which never fails to stimulate conversation. Those in a party of only one or two can grab a stool at the bar and be entertained by the attentive staff members that work behind it.

Harkening back to the days of soda jerks and bobbie soxers, the nostalgic interior at Mary's will set many to reminiscing about the good ol' days. Those too young to remember can step back in time to experience an authentic '50's soda shop. Items on the menu at Mary Coyle's now include Italian specialties such as spaghetti and meatballs – but it's the desserts that keep customers coming back. Twenty-four different flavors of homemade ice cream are available to be served plain, as a thick malt shake or as one of the sundae combinations.

This enticing establishment is known for its focus on quality when it comes to food and service. Just ask Tiger Woods, as he enjoyed a porterhouse here during one of the NEC Invitational tournaments. Hand-cut, aged prime steaks and fresh seafood are the featured fare. The dimly lit dining room helps to create an intimate, inviting atmosphere. Business casual attire. Reservations recommended.

The list of appetizers, entrees, salads, sandwiches and wines is all-encompassing and far reaching – even more of a reason to come experience Papa Joe's.
