We went for our 30th anniversary. Excellent food, service and atmosphere!!
On a scale of 1 to 5, our experience was a 10! We had a beautiful table. Our server, Josue was attentive and sensitive to our needs. His assistant, Anderson was also right there when we needed him The food was amazing and the ambiance was perfect. Can't wait to good back!
Amazing food and atmosphere!!! Can’t wait to go back. I would highly recommend this restaurant.
This landmark restaurant never disappoints. The food is always very well prepared and creative. Pasta is too die for!
Great plus house adds so much charm too.
On the expensive side but worth every penny!
After 13 years of simply visiting Boston and enjoying Mamma Maria each trip, I now live here and get to enjoy the restaurant more regularly. We made a reservation for our anniversary and were unsure what to expect with the COVID-19 restrictions. It was quite impressive how the restaurant was set up to keep distance among the parties while keeping the warm and inviting ambiance I have grown to love.
We started off with a great recommendation from Enrique, our server, for wine, and the evening was great throughout. The appetizer course of Uovo Ravioli and Sea Scallops were skillfully prepared, well portioned, and delicious. I went with the special bone-in Veal Milanese and my wife had the halibut main. Both were perfectly cooked, balanced, and paired well with the included side. I'm a sucker for mashed parsnips, and they were excellent paired with the halibut I stole from my wife's plate.
Chocolate Torta Caprese, Panna Cotta, and a few amaro tastings rounded out a fantastic anniversary dinner. Enrique could not have been better or more attentive.
Highly recommend for a dinner date or a group where you can share and taste a variety of dishes (after COVID, of course).
A most beautiful setting with perfect food & wine.
Food was excellent and great service. The restaurant has dividers separating each table which made me feel more comfortable dining indoors. Will definitely go back.
great atmosphere and great food, would definitely visit again
A little on the pricey side but excellent food/service
Absolutely surreal, the experience is like nothing else. Will definitely be back!
Had a lovely time at Mamma Maria. Everything was great and they prepared for covid with plexiglass around our table which made for a safe environment. It was so nice to go out to eat surrounded by beautiful Christmas lights and decorations in the heart of the north end. The staff was amazing. 😊
The waiter was absolutely the most professional and friendly I’ve ever experienced! We went with a couple who didn’t speak english and he was really respectful and understanding and didn’t rush us whatsoever. Great experience and the food was out of the this world. The osso bucco was extremely delicious same as the bone marrow! Over all a amazing experience!
We have a great dinner at Mamma Maria, our server Raphael was very helpful and attentive ,food was delicious , thanks
Your all of the service are excellent!
My family and friends... We felt happiness all the time.
Thank you so much!
Cozy environment. Outstanding service. Very knowledgeable staff. Food was fantastic. Wine was amazing. I HIGHLY recommend for an authentic Italian dinner.
Perfect, love this placd
Great dinner. Emer was a true delight. Overall experience was terrific.
Our waiter was exceptional. The food was delicious
Mamma Maria’s was the best, hands down, meal we’ve ever had together. Raphael, our waiter, was outstanding!! His recommendations were spot on. The ambiance in the dining room we were seated was exquisite. We sat at a table overlooking the North End street, incredible. The food was, well, absolutely delicious!! We had a bottle of Sicilian Chardonnay that was top notch. We hadn’t a Chardonnay like it before. We will be back!
Great food, atmosphere and attention to detail by staff.
Everything was great! Service, ambiance, and food was absolutely fantastic. No complaints.
My wife and I enjoyed another great evening at Mama Maria's this past week. It was our anniversary and the service, food quality, and ambience were fabulous as usual.
Everything was delicious! Portions were spot on, and staff was friendly. It’s a nicer place, but not stuffy and pretentious. 10/10 recommend next time you’re in Boston and looking for Italian.
They had good food and well prepared and high class experience
Everything was perfect. We sat outside and there were plenty of heaters and we had dressed warmly.
The food was spectacular. My daughter said the lobster pasta was the best thing she has ever eaten!! All the food was delicious. The service was perfect.
I highly recommend it. I wish they could continue to serve outside past December 1 because we are not ready to do indoor dining until there is a vaccine.
Food was amazing with great service. Our party of 5 ate inside, the restaurant was adequately protected with plastic barriers between tables... we were in a tight space, but again we had a larger party. Overall a great experience. Worth the price, 10/10 would recommend.
The lobster pasta was amazing!
Good food, cold outside - could have used more heat lamps. Food was a bit overpriced comparatively.
So expensive for basic food. Such a disappointing experience. The waiters are not accommodating at all.
Mamma Maria's is a lovely experience every time we dine there. It's a beautiful space, the food is outstanding and the service is spectacular.
Great food, good service. Enjoyed the meal with my mother and brother. Will be back to try other menu items. I like you switch up the menu daily
Due to COVID concerns we enjoyed our dinner on the outside patio despite chilly weather. The heaters, extra layers of clothing, hot coffee and cold beer solved that challenge. The service and quality of the meal were both outstanding. Even a simple pesto for the bread basket was terrific. Our appetizers, meals, and dessert were excellent. It’s very nice that the restaurant is a block away from Hanover street, We will return to Mamma Maria for sure.
Amazing food, view and service!
Food was absolutely amazing. Best I have ever had in the North End.
Great outdoor dining space. Lots of heaters and tables!
Delicious food and wonderful setting. Can't wait to return!
We ate outside, and it is wonderful to have so many tables in the square outside the restaurant (in North Square). I hope they can continue doing that for as long as possible. My son and I had the rabbit pappardelle (delicious) and my husband had the tagliatelle bolognese, also good. Mamma Maria is not the typical basic Italian restaurant, but has a more refined cuisine, so if you are looking for the classics it may not be the place for you. But everything we had was terrific.
The Best there is in the North End!
Outside or inside, it is spectacular
Lovely dinner outside on north square - really excellent for an already fabulous restaurant
Food and service was great
