Ristorante Mamma Gina

Pasta came out quick, hot and fresh. This place is listed at two $$ and while they do have some dishes that qualify, I'd classify this as a $$$ place. Good eats here in Palm Dessert. There is valet parking as well as self parking in the back. I would skip the valet. I had a table by the window and saw the valet curb someone's wheels during our meal.

Quality ingredients but the execution is only on acceptable level, especially on the price point they are charging. Friendly services earn their four star but food is more or less three star level.

Maybe one of the best meals I've ever had. Had veal parmigiana (not on menu but they'll make for you). Sides and appetizers were great as well.

The food, service, ambiance and overall experience was phenomenal. We love it all from the Salmon to the cheeseburger and especially the carbonara. Our server went above and beyond. But get there early, the happy hour runs all day and it's busy.

We had a celebratory dinner at Mamma Gina. We ate on the bar side during happy hour. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed. The service was fast and professional, despite how busy they were. And all of the food was delicious! Especially the mushroom ravioli; I don't even like mushrooms but tried my husband's and it was amazing.
