Mama Mia's Ristorante Italiano Italian •
4121 Cleveland St, Gary

“Delicious freshly prepared Italian food from a wonderful family! You can't go wrong woth anything on the menu the beef and sausage combo is delicious. The pasta dishes are all family recipes passed on generations and fantastic. Everyone for their favorite special and it sells out practically before it's made in pre-orders LOL! the market itself that you can find Mama Mia's in is bustling with energy and has tons of great deals. You can eat in or carry out and you won't be disappointed! Don't forget to get an Italian ice and then we'll even give you a sample“

“I hadn't been to Rico's in 20 years. I was nervous to try them again. The entrance is routed through the liquor store door due to a truck driving through the front, so that was a bit awkward. There was also an issue with my total. It took about 15 minutes, but they fixed it. The pizza was just as delicious as I had remembered. The toppings were a bit skimpy (one pepperoni per square), but the flavor was still there. Also, the employees were pleasant. I interacted with two young ladies and an older gentleman. Everyone was friendly. I definitely will return!“

“Experience was excellent. Staff was pleasant beyond professional as well as attentive. Food was great, portion sizes were adequate-to-generous. The aioli on the carpaccio was a little mayo-heavy, but not at all bad (my only feedback that is less than excellent). Noticed a minor facilities issue in the restroom and the owner or manager thanked me and went to investigate right away. This place is clearly loved and cared for by ownership. The atmosphere is upscale but not pretentious or stuffy. We sat outside and got rained out, multiple staff assisted us in moving inside. As an apology for the rain, we were given a dessert to take home, which was totally unnecessary but a very nice touch. Will be back for sure.“

“I can't believe I waited this long to try Ammirato's. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. We tried the Italian beef and it was incredible! The sandwich stands out above all of the rest in the area! In fact there is no comparison because it is THAT good! We will be back to try the meatballs soon!“

“I called for carry out. I asked if they were Neapolitan pizza? I was told yes. So I ordered a medium, Neapolitan pizza and what I recieved was not Neapolitan. This would have been a 5 star review had the crust been Neapolitan or had I just wanted a thin crust pizza. My issue is this is not Neapolitan pizza, even if it's very tasty pizza.“

“Our food was great. Romano's has been a fixture in Highland since we moved there.I had the chicken parmesan sandwich, others had the roast beef and onion rings, chicken tenders and fries.They were all very good.Next time I will have the ham and mozzarella hoagie.I didn't have the hoagie this time because I had made hoagie's at home a couple days before. They were good but not quite the same as Romano's.I haven't had the roman burger lately but plan to another time.We have not tried the steak and cheese hoagie.“

“People ask me what I look forward to about coming home to Indiana and Italian beef sandwiches sit near the top of that list. I don't think people get it until they've tried one from northwest Indiana and Pepinos does it well! You can choose from Italian beef, Italian sausage or both. Your choice of cheese, mozzarella is standard. And then your choice of topping. I do giardiniera. Next time I might also try a side of red sauce. This shop was straight forward, clean, friendly, and delicious! Would happily return when back in town. Thank you!“

“We fell in love with this place last year, so when we are in the area, we always come back. Ŵell it's starting to go downhill. Everytime we order, we always ask for them to not dip it and to put it on the side. Everytime they have dipped it, and my bread was soggy. That's a no go for me!! I may have to found another Italian beef shop instead. So sad :(“

“I asked Google what was my nearest pizza place with good pizza, Rosati's came up as #1. I did not have high expectations because as a Chicagoan I noticed food places don't taste the same as in the city. The lady that took my order was very friendly and happy to take my order. I got extra pizza sauce the way I ordered, unlike some pizza places, they charge but don't give it. Rosati's made my pizza just the way we love it. The cheese was a little extra cooked because of the extra sauce, the crust was crispy NOT burnt. Yuuuuumy! The wings were very meaty, and saucy. The price doesn't and shouldn't matter if the food is so worth it. I wish the blue cheese dip was made from scratch but everything else was perfect! Just moved in near by, so for sure we will be regulars! Thank you, you all should be proud of yourselves!“

“Livio's is the charming neighborhood restaurant we need. My husband and I have always had enjoyable experiences with the very sweet waitresses and we always have a filling and affordable meal. The ambiance is "old school", and I think that's what makes it feel a little special when we go there for date night. His favorite is the special steak with the dipping butter, (even though he's a porterhouse guy, this steak is his go-to at Livios), and the dish I can't get enough of is the mushroom ravioli. Bread and salad to start with a generous meal has always left us pleased. Whether you're sitting on the bar side or in the dimly lit dining room, you'll be comfortable and probably have a great time!“

“I came in for a medium pepperoni and sausage pizza last night for a byop(pizza) party. I wasn't expecting much because I was unfamiliar with the area. I wasn't sure where the front was or where exactly to park but in the parking lot there was an area for pick up. So I parked there. When I walked in I got excited because it looked like a bar due to the lighting and full out bar stand. I thought I could get a drink and watch the game while I waited but the bar was definitely closed. Like they definitely don't serve alcohol there. The screens were nice to watch the football game on. There is a little service counter in the back and all of the staff were so excited and fun. My pizza was the star of the party. Everyone that had mine said it was their favorite. The pizza wasn't greasy. Or too meaty. The medium I ordered was enough for everyone and I don't believe I spend a full $20. Everyone who was familiar with the area said it tasted like Coaches Corner's pizza and later confirmed that that is where the sports bar was before it rebranded as a full blown pizza place. I'm not mad at it.“
