Mamma Maria Menu and Prices

4.8 (351 reviews)35 menu items · 3 categoriesUpdated July 11, 2026

Mamma Maria is the kind of Italian restaurant you'll encounter on the corner of Little Italy. It's not big, but it feels like a home-style kitchen when you enter. There are all the classics on the menu: handmade pasta, grilled eggplant with Parmesan cheese, grilled fish or stewed achyranthes. The sauce is very strong and suitable for dipping with bread. Unlike chain stores with assembly lines, this place has a more dining rhythm, which is suitable for slowly drinking a glass of red wine and chatting. If you want to have a down-to-earth Italian meal without stepping on thunder, you can try this one.
