    My favorite restaurant! I definitely have my favorite items. Gnocchi, chicken parm, pork chop, whipped lemon ricotta and sour dough, and lastly the tiramisu. Not sure in this order but my favorites.

    The food was delicious and our server was extremely charming. I have no clue what her name was but hopefully this review will link to our table and her. She deserves a shoutout. Good times.

    The food and service are amazing. We dined on the rooftop in Winter. It was gorgeous. I did get too hot with the heaters but we understand that is better than it being too cold and the staff responded to the issue quickly.

    Awesome service and outstanding food at Mamas! Enjoyed every moment on this holiday evening a couple of days before Christmas.... Otto's newer "Mama" does not disappoint!
