MEZZO E MEZZO
When I moved from North Caldwell, New Jersey, to Dubuque 25 years ago, Mario’s was the first restaurant I visited. After a wonderful dinner that was just like the Italian food I grew up on; Mario came to the table and in his big, booming voice said, “How was’a your’a dinner?” I jokingly answered, “mezzo e mezzo,” which means “half and half” in Italian and is a way of saying good but maybe not so much. Mario looked at me for a few seconds and then said, “Ahh, go back’a East!”

If I could give 10 stars I would. Amazing food and service! A treasure.
Bobbi took great care of us. The food and atmosphere were fantastic. A must visit in Dubuque!
Pizza was recommended by the kids. The gluten free pasta was good. The chicken parm is a must!

This is what is celebrating the people we love looks like. Mario's is so blessed to have such great people in our lives. We hold such gratitude not only for colleagues over the years but also for each and every guest. I often say Mario's is a magical place, and although it began with Mario and Angelina, we continue the celebration of friendship and togetherness.
As Mario said, 'There is always room at at the table [and in our hearts]'
