Mario's has become the Italian tradition in State College. Mario's offers an extensive menu in unique surroundings. Mario's was the first restaurant in the area to offer wood fired pizza. These individual pizzas with their crispy crust and unique toppings have become an area favorite. In addition, Mario & Luigi's features a wood fired rotisserie where you can find veal, chicken, lamb or pork roasts on a nightly basis. Mario's offers a wide assortment of authentic features such as pasta, fresh seafood, chicken, formula fed veal, entree salad and other regional specialties. Featured favorites include Mario's annual garlic festival, Asparagus festival, mushroom festival and Carnevale.
Mario's has become famous for our original vodka sauce, a delicious tomato cream sauce that goes perfectly with any pasta. Desserts are a specialty as well, with selections ranging from Tiramisu to Italian Rum Cake. Our menu derives its authenticity from the owner, a first generation Italian, who makes annual pilgrimages to Italy seeking out new food ideas.
