I went to this restaurant a few days ago when I noticed a name change on the building, I remember the previous restaurant in that spot being more of a take-out pizzeria, but I was surprised to find out the new restaurant is a sit-down with Italian Cuisine.

I asked the server about the change over and she stated that it is owned by the same family that owns Carlucci’s and the previous take-out pizzeria was also theirs, but they decided to make a more formal sit down restaurant, which came to be Mamma Mia Trattoria. They still have a take-out menu and even deliver. I was told the restaurant just opened the week before under the new name and menu.

Immediately upon sitting down, I was asked what I’d like to drink and the soup of the day was explained to me, as well as that soup or salad comes with any entree. I decided to order the Rigitoni Bellini and Pasta Figoli soup (their house soup I guess). I was also given bread (I think it was Bruschetta or something similar). The soup was so delicious and filled me up until my meal.

When I received my meal, it was a large portion and came out steaming hot so I knew it was fresh. The server refilled my iced tea without me even asking, which made me happier and I then ended up giving her a great tip.

All in all, I would say this is a great place to eat. It’s not too expensive, typically priced of the other Italian restaurants you will see around here.

Love this place. Food is great! Service is great! Love the veal parm, Insalata della salute, ravioli! Highly recommended!

My son took me to dinner at this new restaurant and it was fantastic. The food, waitstaff and room were more than I expected. I had Vodka Rigatoni and it was perfect. I haven’t had such an excellant meal or professional service in a long time. It was clean, friendly and everything was fresh.
