Great food, excellent service & wonderful decor
BEST FRESH ITALIAN FOOD IN BROOKLYN
I took my wife to Mama Rao’s for our anniversary after hearing good things about it for many years. The food was excellent and the service was superb. We were not disappointed.

Mama Rao's offers exceptional Italian cuisine in a cozy setting. The owner is caring and diligent, ensuring guests feel welcome. The crab cakes are a standout appetizer, and portion sizes are just right. Mama Rao's is recommended for those seeking elevated Italian dishes. This place is not only beautiful on the inside, the service and food is impeccable. The selection of dishes, and freshness of all the ingredients is great. They have a great atmosphere in the heart of Brooklyn with accommodation for groups. The food here was excellent and they had excellent service. The veal here was fantastic. The Zucchini flowers were stuffed with creamy Ricotta. The food is unbelievable priced fairly fresh and portion size is good. Staff is great, place is really nice and clean. Everything is home made, they make their own pasta. The staff was excellent. This place truly is a hidden gem. Very reasonably priced.
