Mario The Baker (Bridgeport, CT)


Mario The Baker Italian Restaurant

Bridgeport, CT

Tel (203) 372-3335

Mario The Baker opened it's doors in 1970 and has been serving excellent pizza to Bridgeport's North End ever since. I used to live right down the road from the place and have been going there for decades. The place has a nice down home atmosphere and the pizza is always excellent. I have also had other dishes such as spaghetti & meatball, ziti etc. and everything was great. 

Parking can be a bit tight at dinner time but you can usually find a spot fairly easy. Mario The Baker is right across the street from the Merritt Canteen (which is another area landmark and a must visit.) Mario The Baker doesn't get much hype outside of the Bridgeport area but it's a great place to grab a pizza if you are in Bridgeport. It's only a couple of miles south of Rte 15.
