Service was delightful, live music is such a treat when there is nothing around for miles and miles!

Tomorrow is June 14th and that will be my fourth time at Mama’s and I love the place that’s why I am again coming to dinner at mama’s and bringing guests again.

We were staying at the Comfort Inn across the street. They said this restaurant offers a 10% discount for people staying there. As we had been driving all day and didn’t want to go far, we figured we’d give it a try. I can tell you, we were very pleasantly surprised! It was great! We both ordered the chicken parmigiana. Although not your typical way of serving chicken parmigiana, it was really good! The spaghetti was cooked perfectly, the sauce was a little on the sweet side but not overpowering, and you got a bread stick. Oh, you also got a salad with dinner. It was good also, but I personally like my salad cold. Lily, our server, was fantastic!

I highly recommend the lasagna. The best lasagna i’ve had besides my mothers. Our server was amazing. It’s a hidden gem and i’ll definitely will be coming back.

HORRIBLE! Go here if you want to be completely ignored. We finally left after sitting at our table for 20 minutes with nobody even asking us if we wanted drinks. I understand being short-handed. However, I do not understand poor/no service with hardly any customers in the restaurant. When we left, there were three people (servers and/or kitchen staff) outside the back door smoking. Maybe they should not have so many people taking breaks at the same time.

It’s hard to rate I ate pizza, which tasted worse than what you get at a gas station. The atmosphere was very nice. I understand they do acoustic music in the evening, which is awesome. The service was great. They also have a nice bar.

Average Restaurant. Waitress was fine. Good Greek salad. ordered chicken parm subs, got meatball parm instead. Went with it. Poor drink service. Last beer I ordered never came so had it removed from bill.

It was straight. I had a chicken Philly. IT was good. My friend had spaghetti and meatballs and she didn’t like it at all. I’m not sure why, though. To end on a positive note, there was a guy there singing live. He was really good and was singing some good jamz.
