This is one of those restaurants in a strip mall that definitely is worth seeking out. The food is always fantastic and the people that run it are very cordial. They always have at least 5 additions to the menu and the food is definitely made in house. You will enjoy it!

I always enjoy going to Mama's because the food is outstanding. Gaitano cooks everything to order. Because of that the service is slow and one usually has to wait, but last night, we went at 5:30 because we were going to a play that started at 7:30, so the service was fast. The pork chop was moist and tender, and the Veal Katrina was divine.

This is a husband and wife team. The husband is the chef and the wife runs the front of the house. The food is outstanding and very authentic. It is a place that is located next to Sonoma Market and is very humble looking. The staff is great and attentive without being overbearing. We have eaten here twice in the past two weeks. The Veal Scallopini is great and so are the pasta dishes. This last time we had the tortellini filled with mascarpone cheese. The tortellini were gigantic and incredible. We also had the profiteroles for dessert and they were filled with vanilla gelato - super yummy. We were told if we wanted something special like Oso Bucco that we should just call a week in advance and they would have it on the menu. I feel this is a place that most people overlook because of the location but you should make a beeline here. Only open Friday/Saturday and Sunday for dinner.

Best Italian food in the area, hands-down. Kim and Gaetano run an amazing little restaurant with some of THE best Italian food in northern California. We don’t go anywhere else when we want Italian. GO! It’s all about the food experience 🍝
