It’s actually their pizza crust rubbed with garlic and sprinkled with cheese. Their pizza crust recipe hasn’t changed since his grandparents opened Mario’s, and it’s popular. I munch on the crust, somewhere between thin and medium, with pleasant chewi- ness, and my complimentary soup appears: white bean and vegetable. My bowl is filled with white beans in a savory broth and I’m dipping and slurping when my giant plate of pasta arrives. My linguine is fresh and the sauce is a verdant bright green that verges on creamy with hints of garlic. I eat for a solid 15 minutes and hardly make a dent in the generous por- tion. Between the garlic bread, soup, and pasta, I am stuffed. Rounding out the meal is a little slice of sheet cake. Nothing fancy, just a small thank-you for dining with the fam- ily.
