What can I say? It was so much food, and the food was delicious. Customer service was on point also. Don’t know which one I liked better the big ziti or the chicken Parmesan. I will be Back.
THE STRAIGHT UP BEST PLACE I HAVE EVER EATEN AT!!!! ?????Kid-friendliness: ♾️/10 very t very good food for most ages I would personally say that the amours of food are big and very much worth the price but usually a little to much for me to finish so for a kid I would recommend sharing food with them❤️
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Mamma Lucia! Highly recommend the linguini with clams!

A diamond in the rough (not a primo location and underwhelming appearance) but AMAZING! A typical Italian is made special because of the dressing-the dressings are homemade and taste like it! Ask for the bread-it’s fresh and the dipping oil has balsamic vinegar in it making it all the better! We had lasagna which was cooked to order served straight out of the oven still sizzling in the piping hot dish and delicious!! The Basil Chicken Cody is one of the best Italian dishes we’ve ever had! We would highly recommend these dishes but I feel sure everything is incredible. A bonus-the service was great too! We will definitely go back to see!!

Been driving past this place for a long time. The food is excellent and everyone is extremely accommodating and cobtributes to a great experience. Make sure to try this place.
Just go to Carraba's. They are a bit cheaper, have a nicer dining area, and give you bigger portions. I literally can't think of one advantage that Mamma Lucia has over them.

Can they stop feeding the feral cats please they keep multiplying and killing the squirrels and birds
Great food! An Italian friend of mine suggested this place, and it beat our expectations. The waiter was brand new, so the service wasn’t exemplary, but it wasn’t bad either. Just new.

I was not blown away by my dinner at Mama Lucia’s. It’s prices are comparable to many other delicious Italian restaurants (Nicola’s, Roku) but the food was very average.I ordered the Spaghetti Mare Monti- Sautéed shrimp, scallops, asparagus, mushrooms, and fresh tomatoes in a garlic pinot grigio wine sauce ($24).Sounds delicious but it was average and bland.And maybe it’s just me, but when I eat at an Italian restaurant whose entree’ prices are upwards of $20, I expect freshly grated parmesan/reggiano, (not the kind in a little pouch that you get when you order take-out pizza). The pasta itself did not look or taste homemade and each scallop had been sliced into ( i guess to ensure they were done).The atmosphere was nothing special and the decor was in need of a serious upgrade.Our server was very friendly but clearly overwhelmed as there were only 2 servers there on a Friday night-I won’t be back, unfortunately.

Nicely decorated small Italian restaurant with a piano, statues, and paintings. After we were seated we waited twenty minutes and had to ask for our server who then finally came to our table to ask for our drink order. Throughout the entire meal he was MIA and we had to call him over to get his attention for any little thing we needed. The servers looked overwhelmed and disorganized. Patrons were getting half their order served and would have to wait for the rest to be served while the served food was getting cold. To start we had the pizza garlic bread and the sautéed mushrooms which were good. We both ordered the lobster bisque which tasted watery not creamy and thick like it should be and it lacked any tasty flavor. My gfs eggplant Parmesan entree was very good but my spaghetti mare monti was cooked well but lacked any kind of flavor or seasoning. It was bland tasting. Our desserts were a cannoli and tiramisu. The cannoli was around 3 inches in length. Very small portion and it took two bites to finish. It was tasty but too small. We left with mixed feelings and don't know if we'll be back.

Loved it. This is authentic. The decor is Long Island and the food delicious. Calamari is excellent and plentiful serving. Lasagna is perfectly cooked with lots of fresh cheese. And the gravy was outstanding. The wait staff were young and friendly and attentive. Highly recommend for people who prefer food to decor.
We both had the triple ravioli. It was incredible. The best sauce in town.
