We stopped here because another restaurant nearby wouldn't take walk ins at all with no reservation..but here they were happy to seat us with no reservation. Lots of spacious seating inside One of the better meals I have had in awhile. We started with zucchini blossoms..soooooo good! I had the veal picatta which was very good...came with a side of pasta w/red sauce..I'd prefer to have the picatta sauce. My husband had the special which was a t-bone steak..huge and cooked perfectly! I would definitely recommend going here. Prices were good..large portions good service and plenty of parking and close to the Village.

Amazing food!! We had the garlic bread, fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, and shrimp scallops and crab in spicy marinara. Meals came with minestrone and lots of Parmesan cheese. We didn’t leave anything on our plate! Service was just as exceptional!!

Ordered the special of the day, a Porterhouse Steak, wasn't cooked right. Ordered med and was black and blue rare. Food was cold. I was shocked it wasn't busy in the restaurant at all. Waitress failed refill our drinks, when I asked for mine, she never bothered to ask the other person's drink. Extremely slow process from ordering to waiting for the bill. To be honest wasn't impressed. I would give it another try because the garden eating area looked super cozy.

Spending the weekend in Lake George for our 3rd year anniversary. We chose Mama Risos for our anniversary dinner. I had the shrimp scampi which was virtually flavorless. My wife had the chicken Parm. The sauce was watery and tasteless, and the noodles cold. $20+ a plate !! We ate without complaining and paid the $83.00 bill. Disappointed

Liked our waiter was very nice and efficient. The food however wasn't even hot it was barely warm and I couldn't even finish my food. I ate just enough that I didn't feel like I completely wasted my money...... Hate to say it in this world. If you send food back you never know what's going to come back so I usually don't complain or send food back.

When I lived in Queens NY, I always traveled to Mama Riso’s! Now that I live in Arizona, I’m going back to visit soon and this is one of the restaurants I’ll be visiting a lot. Those clams casino are to die for. My husband and I used to order 4 dozen for the two of us and no regrets??, besides dinner! Totally worth it!

I've always wanted to eat here and never did for 25 years. Finally I made it there with my wife. I can't remember the name but I had a seafood platter with marinara sauce and macaroni.

For the appetizer we had eggplant. The dessert was homemade Italian cheesecake and tiramisu with two cappuccinos.

Everything was delicious ?. The staff was very friendly and very accommodating.

I am Italiano and grew up with great ethnic food in New York City. Mama Riso's is an authentic Italian restaurant with awesome food and a relaxing atmosphere. ?
