We have enjoyed Mams K's many times! It's definitely a favorite! Have also used their catering, which was easy to set up, thanks to Kelcie, and delivered hot, fresh, plentiful, and on time, with a smile! It's more of a takeout place but there are a few tables and the kitchen staff is super welcoming and friendly, so it is fine to plan to eat in the store. Just don't expect it to be like a cafe or restaurant! The kitchen is open so you can see the chefs, who usually say hello when you walk in, creating a positive vibe from the get-go! The food is fresh and delicious. The little hot pepper toasts are perfect. Salads fresh and plentiful. We have not tried all the offerings but the fusilli vodka is fantastic! Prices are decent for the quality, flavor, and amount of food. Their hours - closed Monday-Weds. read more

I attended a YouTube Creators event here on May 9, 2025, and was pleasantly surprised by the setup. I parked in the lot and initially walked into the main restaurant, but was kindly redirected to their private event space known as "The Apartment." "The Apartment" is a cute, well-designed spot -- perfect for hosting intimate gatherings if you don't have the space at home. The vibe was cozy yet elevated, with a solid wine and food selection. While the pasta leaned a bit dry for my taste, the flavor was still on point. The staff? Super kind and attentive. The space was clean, welcoming, and definitely event-ready. Note: The bathroom is not handicap accessible -- there's a large step leading up to it, which may be a challenge for those with mobility needs. read more

Excellent! Stopped in for lunch on a roadtrip. Husband had the meatballs and I had the sausage broccolini. Everything was cooked perfectly. Broccolini was tender and had a little bit of a kick. All of our food tasted fresh (like a farm to table fresh) it felt light but the food filling. Portions were perfect. The atmosphere was cute and service was great! Even our four year old loved the meatballs and pasta. No pictures taken before our food was almost gone. read more

We tried Mama K's and didn't regret it! It was a bit "hipster" for hubs but he survived it and enjoyed his food. He had the pasta with meatballs and loved the meatballs, but felt his pasta was a little undercooked. I tried the hot pepper toast (with ricotta, peppers, and honey.) Delicious! I ate all three without hesitation, and still managed to put away some of my pasta with vodka sauce too. It was so flavorful, and my pasta was perfectly done. The interior is small but if it's not crowded it's a nice place to eat. Plus most will have a leftovers to take home! read more

Was in town for a 4 day sporting event and stopped in nearly every day. The pasta and sandwiches were incredible but even better was the staff. The chef was a great guy and did a great job. Highly recommend especially if you are from out of town and want a place is low key but really good. read more

I have been here several times now. Everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious, the food arrives fast and the staff are so friendly. Their meatballs are amazing! The dining area is cozy and the whole place is very clean! I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

The ambiance is minimalist--which I personally like. It's kind of like you're sitting in the kitchen at someone's house watching them cook and banter with each other. The server was genuinely nice--not fake--just warm and welcoming. The food was a 5. We'll be back. read more

Amazing food and service. Cannot recommend enough! Extremely kind and helpful staff! Cheesecake was incredible.

The food is more sophisticated than the name of the business indicates. My boyfriend and I got the Lemon Zucchini and the Sausage Broccolini to go. It was plenty of food for two meals and so good. Both were entrees which we had never eaten before. The lemon zucchini recipe includes rigatoni, parm and walnuts - so refreshingly different for Italian food and great for a warm day. The sausage broccolini had a nice variety of flavors and a peppery kick it it. The meatballs that we added onto the order were the stars of the show though. They rival the meatballs from Muriale's in Fairmont. Service was great and quick. The ambiance was just right - not fussy but comfortable seating. We will be back again soon! Parking was easy - just follow the signs to park behind the building. read more

Yes yes yes!!! Mama K's is my favorite restaurant in town. Some of the best food and the best vibes.
