Welcome to Mario's Italian Restaurant! Buon Appetito!
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!”
Absolutely amazing experience at Mario’s while we were in town last weekend! We had the Chicken Parmesan and Beef Ravioli and absolutely loved both! Great service, reasonable prices, and cozy atmosphere!
My daughter said this is a cozy restaurant! Atmosphere was great, wonderful home cooking!
Wonderful place for couples or larger groups. Family like atmosphere. Bar service exceeds expectations and has be equal in Dubuque.
It Is ALWAYS a wonderful experience at Marios. It's a popular place so you may need reservations if you dont want to wait. Most are willing to go and wait as the food is fresh, home made and delicious! Very busy staff but they are always pleasant and friendly. Love this place!!
Great experience! Great food! My online order didn’t go through but they took care of me and got my order in and had it all ready to go super quick! Will 100% be back!
Thank you so much for having a wonderful restaurant to come to. Always enjoy the experience here, and the family is so welcoming. Staff is excellent as well.
Loved the calzone. I have a tomato allergy, so I had limited options. Went with a group. The sweet owner came to greet us at the table.
Had a fun date night here! Everyone was friendly and the atmosphere was a real vibe. Food was solid too.
The stuffed shells florentine and lasagna were amazing! Great friendly staff
