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!”
Generations of Tradition in Every Bite!
Since 1977, we have been serving authentic old-world Italian food. Our menu has choices that appeal to everyone, any age and for any occasion.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.0 CommentsComment on Facebook

The traditionally copper water-pot was called a conca in Abruzzo; it was cleaned with sand. The woman rolled a handkerchief or piece of cloth to make a soft pad, which she placed on her head before the conca. The women also carried the clothes they washed at the village fountain on their heads.
