MAMA Oakland offers delicious and comforting food, with amazing focaccia as a must-try. The staff is great, and the price points are fair. Customers appreciate the unique details in the fresh food. The overall dining experience is one of the best in the East Bay, with incredible ambiance and a memorable prefix menu during restaurant week. The restaurant offers a Prix Fixe menu for $39.95, with options to add on as needed. The menu changes often, but standout dishes include the Bucatini & Mama's Sugo and the House Baked Focaccia with an apricot and mascarpone dip. Diners praise the great location, close to theaters, with easy parking, as well as the switching up of the menu every two weeks, making it a worthy stop for pre-show dining.
The chef takes advantage of seasonal ingredients, and everything is so fresh. The staff is welcoming and warm, and they take the time to explain the menu, making the experience feel special. The menu is a great mix of well-done classics and creative seasonal dishes. MAMA Oakland is the perfect date night spot, with a wonderful and memorable dining experience.
