Mama's Italian - Restaurant & Bar

Small dining room. Seems they do more take out than dine in which says the locals support them. I had the Greek salad and housemade dressing. The entree eggplant parm. Excellent. My bride had the caesar with legit dressing and baked ziti. I tried the ziti ... amazing!

Wheelchair accessibility: Tight to get into dining room but it can be done.

The food and the service were excellent. I had a New York pizza with extra cheese, sausage, onions and mushrooms. The crust, sauce and cheese were perfect. My wife ordered a calzone with assorted veggies. You can tell they use quality ingredients. We will definitely be going back.

Ordered chicken parmigiana, it could have been good if they used enough sauce. Only had small amount of sauce on top and the chicken was dry. They spaghetti also only had a little bit of sauce on top. The spaghetti seemed to have been tossed in olive oil, if not for that it would have also been dry. Im Italian and hoped that I finally found a good Italian restaurant, I’ve just never had chicken parm with no sauce before. The pics on website show it loaded with sauce

Leaves you on the phone for 10 minutes when you call to place a to-go order, presumably because they are just getting started for the day). Just wanted to grab a nice lunch for me and my pops. Sadly, won't be able to tell ya guys if it's any good. The staff their seemingly didn't care to take my order.

I got lasagna delivered cost me 23.00 dollars. Serving was huge, but it tasted terrible. Sauce had no taste and all the rest was bland. I bought this last year and it was good that's why I ordered it again. Very disappointed.

I know everyone has an off night. But our experience last night was terrible from start to finish. First, when we arrived, we were told 3 minutes to get a table, and we were sat 10 minutes later. No menus when we sat down, instead greeted with two glasses, one had lipstick all around the rim, so we both drank out of the same water glass. Finally, we were able to place an order. They didn't have what we wanted to order for our 4 year old daughter, something that is listed on their website... so we changed up our order as a family. About 12 minutes after we ordered food and drinks, my bottled beer and my 4 year old's water came out. Then, finally after what felt like a long time, our pizza was done, we saw it sitting on the counter, in front of where to go orders pay and pick up, for minutes, while people were standing over it. Finally, the servers came and got it. In total, almost an hour since we walked in (and we ordered just about as quick as possible), we got our food. And of course, the order was wrong. We ordered a pizza full of olives and half pepperoni. It came all pepperoni and half olive. Why is that a big deal? My pregnant wife hates pepperoni and is ultra sensitive right now to flavors and smells, and my 4 year old daughter also can't stand pepperoni. Obviously, after waiting so long, we didn't want to send it back, so we just dealt with it. The pizza was good in small doses, but it was very greasy, so it was hard to eat a lot of it. Couldn't wait to pay and get out of there.

Do yourself a favor and DEFINITELY try Mama’s Italian Restaurant! You will be greeted by two, incredibly talented, personable and friendly young ladies, Vanessa and Cassie! They assisted me in ordering dinner for 5, from scratch, and we had fun doing it! The variety of food on the menu was wonderful and I was able to order a meal fit for kings and queens, from appetizers, to salads, to the main meal, and dessert!

No doubt, we will be returning to Mama’s Italian Restaurant in the very near future!

The sauce for my Ravioli was just slightly too salty and just a few too many sundried tomatoes and not enough mushrooms for a mushroom Ravioli it still tatsted great though however it was the best and I mean BEST PIZZA I've had since moving here to NC 2 years ago!! I used to go on what we called back home "Pizza adventures" to find the best pizza in our county/state and so far Mama's is the best!! Even reheating tasted great! 1000% would order again and again!
