    What a delicious meal! We love Mama’s on Main, and we were there to celebrate our daughter’s birthday! Everything was fantastic! We wish the wine prices weren’t so high, though. Way more expensive than some of the other nice dining places we go to.

    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.
