Gary PiaMay 7, 2015Everyone has good things to say about Mamma's pizza and rightly so. But, my "go to" order is the Baked Stuffed Shells. When I order delivery for the family I always add their Antipasto Salad.
Daisy VillatoroJune 23, 2012Today we had slice of mushroom,slice of pepperoni and cheese slice. All very tasty, great tasting dough and the thin slices well yummy. To top it off very friendly and courteous people.
Preston Melbourne-WeaverAugust 7, 2014The gigantic pizza is the best value but almost embarrassing the cary out of the restaurant. The garlic knots are great, and their thin crust always delivers. Even when you dine in. Haha. Ha.
Md WongJuly 20, 2014I agree that the garlic knots are where it's at. The pizza however is just better than normal. If you are in the area it's a little better than round table down the street.- Michael CosentinoDecember 26, 2014Best New York style pizza I've had in California (I'm from Brooklyn!). Garlic knots too!
One of my FAV pizza spots in LA. My Fav Pizza's to try are the: MANHATTAN, THE BRICK OVEN & THE MARGHERITA. Mamma's ROCKS! Don't forget to say hello to Sunny for me! Sebastian
White pizza is great! So is the marg. Be sure to use your check into get free garlic knots (which are bomb w/ marinara sauce) or a soda.
Victor GarciaDecember 24, 2013Wow. Did I just say "wow?" Yes, yes, I did. Best New York Style pizza I've had in California, by far!
Kathy N.February 2, 2013They have gluten-free pizza and pasta options. Not sure about cross-contamination but their food is good there. Their linguine with clams is in the salty side.
Half Margherita and Half White on Gluten Free crust is sooo good! Try it! You'll love it!
Restaurant.comDecember 29, 2011Check out their family special online- two pizzas, two pastas, house salad, and garlic knots for $27!
Taj ChiuJune 18, 2011Great thin crust pizza. This is as close to NY pizza as I've had in CA since I left San Fran!
Best Pizza Ever!!!! Love the margarita pizza with garlic knots!
pizza is ok but service good- I always check in on foursquare and get free soda- this time I was Mayor- but guy told me they don't do this anymore and was kind of rude so I doubt I'll be back:(
amyOctober 26, 2010The fried calamari were a bit over-fried and over-priced. But the garlic knots were SUPER yummy, esp with the ranch sauce!- Gary LeeAugust 3, 2011Best pizza in SGV.... Love it simple ... But then they make it so hard! Mmmmmmm
Franky MoralesApril 19, 2011Really great pizza and friendly service....plus the hot guys that work here are a bonus!
Weekday lunch special from 11am-3pm: Buy 2 slices of any pizza and get a free drink.
Some of the best pizza out here. Margherita Pizza and garlic knots!
- Gotta stop 4 a quick slice! My FAV pizza place in LA! No Doubt!
- They aren't doing the check in special anymore and were a little rude about it
