Mamma Italia Ristorante

Definitely was excited to try a new restaurant w the family. Definitely will be returning. Simple good basic Italian dishes. No fuss no muss. I love when a chef is talented enough to just take simple pantry ingredients and transform them into deliciously flavored dishes and sauces.
Portions for most dishes are definitely smaller compared to many other restaurants. However, in reality they are adequately proportioned to what a true serving should be. For instance, the side of penne that accompanied the shrimp was approximately a cup worth of pasta.

APPs: Calamari was fried perfectly, lightly coated and crispy. Seasoned well. House marinara was simple but tasty. My hubby ordered the egg soup which doesn't appeal to me, however, I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. It as do flavorful; creamy, fresh and so tasty. I definitely would consider next time. My other daughter ordered a Cesar salad which was quite tasty. Definitely sharable as an appetizer or as a meal with a protein.
ENTRÉES: My husband ordered veal marsala which was tasty and in a light colored creamy type sauce. Very mild w the marsala definitely could use punch more of it but was still nonetheless tasty and delicately balanced. Veal was tender and buttery and the fresh mushrooms aldente.

Spaghetti and meatballs was the biggest dish of the menu. Definitely sharable or enough for leftovers. My daughter and I were not a fan of the meatballs ( THIS IS A PERSONAL PREFERENCE THOUGH .. I like a more seasoned and crumbed, meatball like my mom makes) These are definitely more like a just meat in a ball form like my grandmother on my dad's side made. My husband loved them he felt they tasted like his Aunt made... definitely good ingredients but just as to personal preference or where in Italy family is from...
The sauce on the spaghetti was good..

Lobster special. The amount of Pasta that accompanied the lazy lobster was what you would expect for a main dish. Simple garlic and oiled sauced but very tasty. The lobster I will say was overcooked and slightly chewy but otherwise another fabulous dish.

I had the shrimp scampi... it was absolutely delicious. I think my favorite sauce out of all we tried. Definitely perfectly creamy and garlicky and the punch of pepper flakes... simply fantastic. Definitely made the correct choice.

Was just such a good and simple meal all around. Looking forward to more dining experience.
Did not know about the BYOB.. but will keep in mind for next time.

Meant to take pics of desserts but the family scoffed them up before I had a chance 🤣🤣
Ps. They were yummy. 😉

What a great place. Wonderful people. Excellent food. Exceptional quality and service. I will definitely be a regular . A fantastic little Italian restaurant.

Had heard from the town community FB page that this was an amazing new addition to our restaurant choices, and that was most definitely true! The service was great, and the food was absolutely delicious (highly recommend the veal saltimbocca). I also feel like the BYOB aspect allows the guests the ability to manage the alcohol costs in their own budget and get more amazing food. Will definitely be back ASAP! 😋

Great service, calm atmosphere and of course fantastic food. Cozy but quiet restaurant that war truly fantastic. I got the tortellini Alfredo which was hearty and delicious.

Our first visit but not our last! Fantastic spaghetti and meatballs.The meatballs tasted like the ones we had in Rome, Italy, several years ago, simply delicious. The Scampi Vino Bianco was great as well. The house bread was tasty and that wonderful Tiramisu cake melted in our mouths. We wish Marco and Kathy much success with their new restaurant and please give it and them a try for some great authentic Italian dining.
