Ever go to a restaurant with a very long menu and you struggle to find something you want? Not here. Everything on the menu looked appealing to me. The execution does not disappoint either and even surpasses your expectations. Just a wonderful dining experience. Oh, I settled on figs and prosciutto, the halibut, and the ricotta and biscotti. All were delicious.

Mamma Maria’s is an awesome restaurant and is in my top 3 all time favorite places and I have travelled to all 50 states and eaten at the finest places in the country during my work career. We were in town for the Marathon and chose Mama Maria’s because of our first experience 10 years prior when my wife had run the marathon for the first time. Same awesome experience. I would rate Mama Maria’s as the best premier restaurant in the North End.

My wife and I were celebrating an anniversary. As requested, we were seated at a cozy table in a small room. Our server was very professional, she made our night way better than expected. Overall, the dishes were good. Baked oysters were very good, rabbit pasta was fair, and veal cotolleta was great! Their tiramisu was fabulous, and our server told us it was on the house!! Plus, our server suggested the exact wine we were looking for. We really enjoyed our night at Mamma Maria. I am sure we will become repeat customers there. Dining is not just about food, and Mamma Maria knows how to make their customers feel special, being cared. 👏👏

This has been one of our families favorite restaurants for over 30 years! The food is imaginative, although based on some traditional Italian food. There is a range of choice, in the wine list is wonderful. Desserts are light and tasty. The wait staff cannot be better! Very attentive, friendly but professional. Highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion.
