"Everytime we go to Hollywood we love to visit Mama Mia's. The food is always delicious and the ambiance can go from Senior, to Kid Friendly, to Romantic depending on the time of day. On this visit I had the Salmon and Pasta in a light cream sauce and it was faboulus! Typically they place bread on the table and this time it had garlic, just right for dipping. It was so abundant and good that we took a good portion home and had it the next day!
This is a neighboorhood gem that never dissapoints and we look forward to returning!"

"We go to Mama Mia very OFTEN, because their food is OUTSTANDING, the portions are HUGE and their prices are very REASONABLE. Their wait staff have ALWAYS been cordial and very accomodating. Vito, the manager, always greets us, and makes us feel like he is TRULY happy we are there again. Eating at Mama Mia, is a very satisfying experience. And, we always have enough on our plate, to take home a doggie bag. It is like having delicious food for two meals, BUT- only paying for ONE. And, the food is CONSISTENTLY EXCELLENT!! Try therir Shrimp dish or their Veal Parmagiana on the bone. You will be EXTREMELY happy when you do."

"I Love the food at Mama Mia soooooo MUCH, that this was my THIRD visit in ONE WEEK. Each time the food, service and VALUE has been EXCEPTIONAL. Vito, the Manager, trains his wait staff to be courteous and accomodating. All his servers have been friendly, attentive, and gracious. That, coupled with the EXCELLENT variety of WONDERFUL dishes, makes Mama Mia an all-time FAVORITE of mine. And, I ALWAYS leave with a BAG filled with Left-overs, for a SECOND meal at home,-- because their portions are so PLENTIFUL. Their bread is a wonderful beginning to all their meals. Whether plain, or with garlic--I DEVOUR them. And, their desserts are wonderful endings to their NOTEWORTHY main courses. Mama Mia is a TREASURE!!!"

"Each time I have dined at Mama Mia, I leave feeling like I had THE BEST dinner. The food is consistently spectacular. The servers, like Glenn and Joey, are always attentive and eager to please. The manager, Vito, makes every effort to see that all his guests/patrons are treated like FAMILY. This restaurant is where I take my out of town guests. They ALL have wanted to come back to Mama Mia, and everyone thought the FOOD and PORTIONS were exceptional. Everybody leaves with a doggie bag. I can't decide which is my favorite dish. I LOVE their veal parmagiana on the bone. It is a TASTY, HUMONGOUS portion,-- and at a reasonable price. Their fish dishes are all succulent, This restaurant is a culinary TREASURE!!"

"Our group of six had a wonderful lunch. The food was well prepared and fresh. Our waiter was very good. We had such a good time that we are going back the next time we get together in May.
I plan to try the restaurant with my husband for dinner soon."

"We, there were 5 of us, found the food to be OK not great and way over-priced. All of us had frequented Mama Mia's a few years ago and it was great! We will not go there again. Please note we are residents not snow birds. Also, the waiter informed us that he would normally add 18% for the tip but did not do that on this occasion. We are 20% tippers and decided not to do that this time."

"I had my BIRTHDAY celebration at Mama Mia's, and they made me feel like ROYALTY!! The food was OUTRAGEOUSLY delicious. Each portion were enough for TWO dinners. Their chopped salad is a meal in itself, and filled with healthy veggies. Their tiramisu is an INCREDIBLY delicious dessert. My dining companion had their veal chop parmagiana which he devoured, but still had ENOUGH left for another dinner at home. I had their flavorful snapper, which was heavenly, and made to perfection. I love Mama Mia and you will too."
