Always great food and staff, we have even used their catering and the owner Sal always comes over and says hi! Keep it small and make sure you come to this amazing small business.

“Hadn't been to this restaurant in a long time. Certainly worth the wait on line. Tried a few different things. The chicken parm delicious the 3 type manicotti superb the baked clams perfection salad uniquely delicious and the meatballs yummy. We will definitely be back now that ive found a favorite Italian spot“

“A little too saucy but I must say, amazing customer service. We picked up a large pizza and met my fiance down by the bay to eat while the kids played. I called and told them the pizza wasn't even cut fully, so we were unable to eat it. Mainly my kids because one has sensory issues and can not have cheese hanging out everywhere or else we would have just ripped it apart. They actually drove down to the bay and cut it for us!!!!!! Outstanding“

“Service and staff are excellent. The dinners we had tonight were outstanding! Definitely will be returning for another great night out❤️“

“Love their food. Just not happy with the pizza“

“Just picked up food to go the Bolognese with Angel hair pasta for the 2nd time since Sunday, my wife got the Chicken parm dinner and had ordered Lasagna this past Sunday absolutely AMAZING, thank you so much I drove 1/2 hr away just to get it! Well worth it!!! Thank you !“

“Had my bridal shower here and it was a dream! The food is delicious and the staff is wonderful. The catering manager Byron is a pleasure to work with and was so accommodating! Our guests can’t stop talking about how great the event was!“

“Whether you dine in or order pizza to go, you will be happy you went to Mama's. I love coming here on pasta nights (Monday and Tuesday) for the (very reasonably) fixed price meals that include soup/salad, entree, dessert, and wine. There's always enough to re heat for lunch the next day. If you have friends from out of town that want to try real long island pizza you should order from Mama's. I moved away and I cry every time I eat their za. The servers are so hard working and friendly. Shout out to Christy!! She's killing it!! Ps - pasta nights get BUSY so it would be smart to make a reservation.“

“The veggie was loaded!

The owner(s) know what they're doing. Dunno if they are chain, but they will make a Bronx-win if they replace the (bland) cheese.

Better service than most *****“

“We, thankfully, had a reservation on a Saturday night. We had a spacious table for 4. Brittany was our waitress. She was wonderful. She introduced herself, took our drink orders, gave us time to look over the menu, told us about the specials, was attentive to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted. The appetizers she suggested were delicious. The courses were nicely spaced apart. Each course was cleared from the table before the next course was served. We never felt rushed. The food was excellent. Atmosphere was quiet to enjoy a conversation. We will certainly be returning.

Parking: We used the valet parking.“

“My husband gets Too Good to Go from you guys weekly. I had to leave and review and say that the BBQ Chicken Slice is amazinggggggggggg. Absolutely amazing. Everything from you guys is great, but this slice is on another level! 🤌🏻😚💕“

“Ate at this location for the first time Saturday night. We have been to the original Westbury location several times. The food and service are exemplary ! We all thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Highly recommend this hidden gem ! 10 out of 10“

“Such a wonderful experience! We had the blackened tuna done perfectly, ordered 5 different pasta dishes all perfection not to mention the lemon cake and creme brulee was perfect!“

“😀This is the third party he has catered for us. Sooo good. Thank you!!“

“This was my spot growing up in East islip. Great food and people! Always grab a slice when I’m home“

“Thank for my roast beef and mashed potato and my buffalo blue pizzas 🍕 yesterday, my husband was so happy I bought his two favorites back to Pennsylvania for him! They travel great and always delicious 😋“

“Always awesome and delicious!!!“

“I attended an event Friday night and this place blew me away on so many levels. The food was amazing, but the service was even better. Between Kaitlyn giving me a sample of one of the wines because I told her I was picky about wine and Zack accommodating an absolutely ridiculous request, they were all just amazing people. I’m autistic and I make some ridiculous requests sometimes, but Zack didn’t even bat an eye. I have pet rats and I saw that broccoli rabe was on the menu as a side, so I asked if I could take home like a single piece and he didn’t even blink, he just said to remind him before I left. I will definitely be patronizing them in the future“

“I ate here after a long day of work. And I had the best experience ever. The server Emily was very nice and helpful. And made sure I got my food on time and well made. She is there to work and work only. And I appreciate a server like that. Excellent service.“

“This place is for the foodies! We dinned at the Patchogue Location on a Saturday 4pm and had the place to ourselves which was nice. We ordered The Sals fried chicken bowl with caesar salad, it was so good! we also ordered the mac & cheese and this was probably one of the best i’ve ever had, 10/10 must try. The parmesan truffle fries are perfectly crisp and delicious. The risotto balls were also very good! Our server Gianna R was so sweet and attentive. Highly recommended this place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️e“

“My wife and I had a delightful dinner here during a Thursday evening late last month. When we arrived, we were glad that we had made a reservation, because most tables were occupied already. Live music was provided by a cover band playing popular tunes from a variety of eras: it was well-received by the patrons, some of whom even danced! Several members of the staff alternated serving us; all were pleasant and helpful. Our food - pasta primavera and wonderful, warm bread - was delicious, as were our wine and beer. I look forward to the possibility of another meal here, if we visit the area again.“

“there customer service is a trip ! been waiting over an hour for a slice when they told me 30 mins. unbelievable this is the last time I will order from here.“

“Love going here. There a bunch of pizza shop like two minutes from me. But Manninos is the place to go. One under rated item is there buffalo chicken sandwich is amazing. The guys behind the counter are also friendly and always ready to help satisfy your hunger with recommendations. This is my go to!!!“

“They have been working with so many families in need. They are helping feed Long Island families while the SNAP program is still not being funded. In addition to a friendly eatery that truly cares about people their food is amazing. So many options to choose from! Stop by and say hello, grab some delicious food and help spread the love. Donate today or share their mission to feed Long Island families in need during this difficult time. No child should ever be hungry.“

“They catered our party and the food was fabulous. Their meatballs are soft and the best we’ve tasted. The trays were filled to the top. The chicken parm, chicken francaise, and pasta dishes were great. Hero was great too. I was a little hesitant hiring them only because I had never used them before. I decided to use them because we had gone there for dinner a few times and loved the meatballs and other dishes (chicken bruschetta for one) and their homemade dipping sauce for their bread. I could be happy with the dipping sauce and bread alone, delicious! We will definitely use them again to cater. They delivered and were right on time.“

“We had a delicious meal with the family.“

“Great selection at all times, just walk in and pick something OR order ahead and be amazed“

“I love the Pastaria! I have been going there for a long long time. It's super cute, they have good service, and its a sweet spot in my heart for their contributions to our community. We love you, Pastaria!“

“Amazing pizza and chicken best in town! It tasted all homemade!“

“Great place to go with friends or significant other. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. The food is fresh and delicious. Great drink selection. The service is very good. If you have not tried Virgola, you need to go!!“

“My family and I went to them since they first opened.. and when I say there was NOTHING that they made that was anything below amazing, believe me! From their pizza to pasta, to rolls and salads.. even their garlic bread. The hospitality they all provided, especially Benny, was enough to make you remember them forever.. then you add on their food? Forget it. Nothing holds a candle to this place and the family. They are SORELY missed! I have yet to find a salad/vinaigrette, or a marina sauce, from any other place that comes close to this place. I dream of that antipasto!! Thank you for all your years of service to the community. You are so, so missed. I hope your family is enjoying retirement! Love always, Victoria “Bella” (Benny called me that ever since I was a baby!!), Alice, and Raymond ❤️“

“Great food, great service, great ambience and fair prices make for a great dining experience!“

“THE BEAT SALAD (added shrimp & avocado) ! Holy HEAVENS! OH MY DAYS! I had to sit in the parking lot to chow down. Absolutely worth the wait. Super delicious. Honestly I forgot to use the salad dressing. That’s how yummy this is. Will be back! Thank you all!! #DELISH“

“Delicious pizza!! Highly recommend to anyone who loves a good slice! Nelson and his staff make amazing food! Great service and always very friendly! May God continue to bless your business!!“

“It’s Tuesday night I just left there speaking to Frank. My name is Thomas Kos. I’ve said this numerous times I believe since I moved to this area there’s no sense of even going anywhere else I’m a big pizza person the Sicilian in the regular or some of the best I’ve ever had the chicken bacon ranch is probably the best slice of pizza I ever had in my 56 years. The people are kind the workers are great it’s just no need to go anywhere else. Great deal on Tuesday and the slices are always huge, I’m shocked sometimes the size of a slice. Guys thank you for everything. Always great going in there.“

“Reliably great food and friendly service!“

“I had this pizza today for the first time , it was absolutely delicious reminded me of my childhood favorite pizzeria! The food all looks amazing & the staff where all so pleasant can't wait to go back and try new things on the menu 👍🍕“

“We often stop in for delicious Italian food, a pizza lunch and/or dinner. For my mother in laws 100th we decided to cater dinner at home. Most who know us know how we love to cook, and eat, but it sure was terrific to spend time together, relax & enjoy, with limited clean up.
Food was delicious. Eggplant parm, Penne a la vodka, Chicken Marsala, yummy garlic knots, pasta with escarole & beans, fabulous!
When they found out we were celebrating mom's 100th they sent best wishes and complimentary cookies to have with our espresso & desserts.
Food delivered was warm and fresh. On time. Driver helped us set up.
Thank you Victor, Sal & O Sole Mio.“
