Mario's Restaurant & Pizzeria, Clifton

I want Dave to try this place but also don’t because he’ll give it a monster score and my favorite spot will be mobbed. Thin Emma pie is goat

Ordered a bar pie (plain). Well done under carriage, excellent cheese. A solid slice

Emma pie.

Another Clifton Classic place. Thin slice, sauce is so so. Slice is on the bland side. Crust is good

Emma style thin crust is AMAZING!!! Good cheese ratio good char sauce with a tang! 8.7 Regular crust equally good 8,2

Legitimately the best pizza in NJ, maybe the country when it’s “on”. Have had it somewhat inconsistent, but has been better most of the time as of recent. Get the Emma style… light cheese, light sauce, extra crispy. The regular is great, but emma is in a different league Have been all over the northeast for pizza, and most of the major spots. But I think if Dave goes and gets a good Emma, it’s gonna be a top ten all time score

Solid good pizza

Another Clifton classic

One of the best I've had

Solid pie..... good sauce and cheese nice under carriage thin and crispy

Decent Jersey pie from old school Italian restaurant. Good crust, perfect thickness. Cheese to sauce ratio a bit high. The place itself is classic... did takeout, but would enjoy hanging out here.

The Emma style thin crust was extremely thin. Like a Pete and Elda's thin. Good crisp. Not much cheese on the pizza. The sauce was very sweet. Above average pizza. Not elite but very good.

I don't like shitting on a pizzeria during this time. But Mario's fucked up badly. I ordered a pizza at 5:59. Was told to pick it up at 6:19. I picked it up at 6:19. It was room temperature. Let's assume it took 10 minutes to make and bake the pizza. And then was sitting in the box for 10 minutes (for some reason). The pizza wouldn't have gotten as cold as it did. The only way I can think of that it'd be this cold is if they gave me a leftover pizza. This pizza was cold. I expected a lot better from a place that's been around this long. (they also messed up my salad!! Put apples instead of pears. Not the end of the world. But someone needs to step up their game. 0.3/10

Loved it. Quintessential New Jersey pizza. Will go to again.

This is the “Emma” pie. Good sauce, and cheese was good but needed much more, the crust was wayyy to thin, i like thin pizza however this was thinner than a cracker thin, didn’t have much taste either. For all the hype i wasn’t impressed.

So thin and tasty, one hungry person could kill a large pie by his/herself. The crust has that coal fire texture to it but I believe the restaurant uses a standard pizza oven. Not a lot of cheese but the ratio is spot on due to the millimeter thickness. Sauce has a well balanced flavor. Just a little greasy but not so much to where it is dripping.

Good crunch good flavor but a lot of oil

Quality! Solid 8.7!

Emma our Super thin lot of sauce which I like good pizza

Emma style the way to go, super thin and crust nice and crispy. Wish the middle was better too much flop....all in all solid pizza

Nice and cheesy, as all things should be ;)
