Mama's catered my daughter's first birthday party and they were absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. The entire process was seamless -- the staff was so kind, professional, and communicative throughout every step. The food was delivered with such care and everything was fresh, hot, and delicious. We ordered the shrimp, oregano, penne alla vodka, and the chicken Parmesan, and every single dish was outstanding. My guests could not stop talking about how amazing the food was -- people were genuinely raving about it all day. Mama's helped make such a special occasion even more memorable, and I would absolutely recommend them for any event or catering needs. We will definitely be ordering again! read more

Had 3 specialty slices 2 were chicken pesto and one was a cup and char grandma style w sausage meat. All looked great but were way over salted and not edible by my taste. Mommas has an excellent reputation and i will only try it again because of Mommas good reputation. I did not enjoy my meal nor did i finish it. Disappointed! Mommas do better! But Great professional counter service! read more

Mama's - Specialty Slice Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Copiague, New York

It's been a few years that I have been to Mama's since moving out east, but last night I met 3 friends for dinner and it was great to be back! The rain was on our side because for a Saturday evening, wait time to get seated is minimum 30-45 minutes, our wait time was maybe 15 minutes at most! Service was great, the waitress came to our table a few minutes after we were seated! Entrees ordered were Veal and Chicken Parmesean, Grilled Chicken Executive and my dish was Chicken Francaise...shocker!! I have to comment on the Chicken Executive even though I didn't taste it! I have never seen this dish before and it was so beautifully prepared. It was my first time meeting the guy who ordered it hence the reason no pictures but there is a picture of this dish on the restaurants website. This is their description...Marinated grilled chicken, fresh broccoli, zucchini, asparagus tips, fresh mozzarella, aglio e olio and frizzled onion garnish! All I can say is that the guy couldn't stop raving about his dish and although the portions for every dish are HUGE (guaranteed you'll have lunch or dinner the next day) there was nothing but some sauce left on his plate! My Chicken Francaise was tasty! I don't know why it's never a dish I can ever really rave about, anywhere, but the sauce was flavorful, the perfect consistency and I was served 4 cutlets!! Onto dessert!! My cannoli I will rave about!! It was big (of course!!) and the perfect combination of everything that makes a cannoli delicious with lots of chips!! The tartufo has vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream with a cherry and nut filling (2 in a serving). The oreo cheesecake was ordered by the same guy with the Chicken Executive. I took a big spoonful and it was really delicious and creamy, just the way cheescake should be! Last night was a really great night on every level! I will definitely be back at Mama's again soon, so much deliciousness there waiting to be eaten by me! read more

Went here with family for pasta night. Love the amount of choices you get. Garlic knots were very good an my carbonara pasta was decent. Also tried their pesto pasta which was tasty. My biggest issue is that my fiancé and I seemed to have gotten sick from the cheesecake. We took it to go and realized that we both had very upset stomachs after eating it. Willing to give it another try because my aunt speaks so highly of their food. read more

The service was great. We had the best waiter who explained the entrees to us, and was cordial and attentive. If the owner was there I would have told him how good this waiter was. Food was delicious. A great dining experience. read more

Good service, not so good food. Took my wife to dinner at Mama's, based on a recommendation. Ordered a sampler appetizer platter - good, but not great. House salad was very good. My wife had stuffed Rigatoni - okay. I had Papardelle with meatballs and sausage. The sauce was too sweet and the meatballs were terrible. When I order meatballs anywhere, the standard is that they have to be better than mine - they were not. The waiter and the rest of the staff were good, but hard to hear - noisy. read more

I moved here a few years ago now and my now husband took me here for the first time about a year or so into me living here. After eating there, the first time, I was like why haven't we come here before? The food was so good. I had been let down by quite a few of the other Italian restaurants we had gone to but after coming here, we go back for most special occasions and order delivery from here. We had our engagement dinner here. It is busy most nights. They have specials on something most nights of the week. Chicken night. Pasta night. My favorite dish to get there is the Stuffed Chicken Rigatoni. So good. Chicken is cooked perfect. And the SAUCE. really makes the dish. My husband loves the stuffed veal when it's one of the specials. I also tried a special one night, the salmon and scallop risotto. Wasn't a huge fan of the scallops but the salmon was good. We are a big fan of their appetizers as well. We have gotten the mozzarella de carozza. It's heavy especially if you're getting a pasta dish entree as well but it's delicious. We usually eat half and take half to go. We also have tried their prosciutto appetizer, our other go to. We also alwayssss get tiramisus for dessert and sometimes cannolis too. But the tiramisus are huge and taste so good. Definitely some infused Kahlua. read more

Had a dream about stuffed veal chop I used to get when we went out with Laura's Aunt. Restaurant closed. Then we went to Mama's in copaigue, and the special was stuffed veal chop marsala. Outstanding wish it was on menue regularly. Our beautiful blonde waitress Christine was exceptional. Not only were the orders correct, she was very attentive and couldn't be more helpful. Ask for her if you got to Mama's in copaigue Very loud and busy. read more

Came here for Chicken night on Thursdays which I never do and I was very happy with my order and portion size. The waiter was sweet as well! No wait buy maybe it's because it's winter but the place was packed! To start off, the garlic bread and salads were delicious and then comes the huge meal! Cheesecake and tea to go! read more

Started off with a couple of apps and about 8 garlic knots were provided rather than bread. Fine by me. The fried calamari and chopped baked clams. Standard good. Nothing amazing but the calamari came with a shallow bowl of sauce instead of the usual skimpy bit of sauce that makes you inevitably need to ask for more. 2 thumbs up on providing a proper amount. When the entrees came out my chin hit the table. The pics don't do the meals justice. The waiter placed the dish in my hands so I could put it down. Must have weighed 12 pounds. My wife and daughter got equally impressive amounts as well. You may say "You got a lot but was it any good?" It was VERY good. All 3 were delicious. Grilled chicken over spinach and mashed, Sautéed chicken over shrooms and asparagus and fried chicken cutlet and eggplant over rigatoni. The waiter Greg was thorough, attentive and personable. I've been there many times for pizza but never on the restaurant side. Their pizzas are super fresh and they must keep at least 20 varieties at all times. Each one looks like it was just made. read more

I keep getting the same server here who is just not friendly or welcoming at all. Last night, for pasta night, I was seated in a different section and was very excited to maybe see a different face. Unfortunately it was the same server I always get! Everyone else is always amazing the service is always very fast as well. I love the specials here but may be starting to do take out instead. read more

Called to make a reservation but was told they don't take reservations. So I had to wait 20 minutes to be seated (Sunday night for dinner) The service was great, the waitress was friendly and efficient. The plates felt like they took awhile to arrive, but they were big portions. They do provide take out boxes if you can't finish. The food: The calamari we ordered was hard to chew, and not so tasty unfortunately. The Carbonara I ordered was creamy, had the right amount of bacon bits and was customizable; I asked the onions to be removed. The chicken parm was huge, no way you can finish the plate in one sitting. Overall, nice, crowded, stuffy, loud, family restaurant. read more

Mamas is a great staple. Started in Oakdale which went downhill after the sister opened Mamas in copaige. Recently went on Pasta night. The selection was fantastic. We had the pasta Antonio and the pasta with Gorgonzola and sausage meat. Both were out of this world. The portions were so big we had two meals each. Want to go back and try more. this was our waitresses first day and it showed. We ordered rigatoni and got Penne. Prices were good came with a crisp salad and great garlic knots It is crowded and a little noisy It was a half hour wait. I would give the food five stars. read more

Ambiance on point-old school Italian vibes. Great music-had a fantastic DJ, I was singing the whole time. Our service was fantastic, very freindly waiter with good suggestions. Food 5/5-try the calamari and penne all vodka Great vibes all around. Try it out when you're in the area! read more

I love Mama's! They went above and beyond to welcome me to American Venice. Great food! Great hospitality! Great staff!!!! read more

I love coming here for lunch! They have such great pizza creations. My favorite is the chicken Marsala, it's so flavorful and I can taste the wine reduction very well. The guy behind the counter was very nice to let me taste some of the toppings when I first went there. I would definitely come back to try each pizza creation. The inside had plenty of seating during lunch time. I wonder what they're like during dinner time. read more

Tito's seafood combo - don't order anything, but this dish! This place is INCREDIBLE. If I could eat here every day, I would. It's a big pricy, but most portions are big and you'll have left overs. Easy $100 dinner for two. Try the baked clams, calamari and house dressing for the salad. The garlic knots are fire too!!! read more

Had tried their pizza and takeout a few times, but wanted to wait till I had a sit down meal here first before I gave my full review. To start with the takeout though, the pizza is delicious and they have specialty slice options galore, and perhaps my favorite buffalo chicken slice. A key theme here though, portion size, these guys do not skimp! Chicken parm hero was the same way, I borderline could have had that thing for 4 meals! But more than just quantity, the quality is still there. Everytime I've put in orders, they were always ready on time to boot. Now to the restaurant portion. Came on a busy Sunday night with no reservation and had to wait about a half hour, which is what they told us to expect. The place does seem to get quite busy, so don't be shocked if you need to wait. Once sat, the waiter was excellent, I believe his name was Roberto, very professional. They start you with some garlic knots for the table and the we ordered the chicken panzanella and the chicken bellagio. Now looking at the prices at first I thought I really was at the bellagio in Vegas, a little pricey I thought for Italian, but when the food came out, I got why. MASSIVE plates of chicken and pasta that I comfortably did get four or five meals out of by myself. Personally I think the chicken bellagio was a little under salted, but still tasty but the chicken panzanella was done well and everything was obviously very fresh. Definitely would love to come back and try more of their options, just perhaps with a bigger appetite, or more friends to share with! Atmosphere is also very nice, classic rustic Italian kind of feel without feeling like you NEED to dress up. Plenty of parking in the front and side with the attached lot. read more

My grandsons first birthday party was held at Mamas over the weekend. The manager and staff were great! Very accommodating! The food was very good. I've been to Mamas many times and they never disappoint. Their penne a la vodka is the best I've ever had. And of course the best garlic knots around! You always take home half your food! The guests at the party even went home with doggie bags! I would highly tecommend Mamas! read more

Service was good most of the food was very good - baked clams not so much. Hate sand in the clams - they were indeed fresh but the sand. Awful!! We probably should hv asked for new plate in case it was a one off - 18$ would have been ok if they were sand free! read more

Love this place delicious food always. But last nite & a few other times we pay cash & they still charge us like we were using our credit card. Just make sure you pay attention to your bill. read more

Great quality food, huge portions so much so that you could feed 3 people per entree. Hostess was friendly and fast.. Staff was slow to acknowledge us, after about 10 min we went to find a waiter, then also had to find a stFf to pay and leave. Service took 2 stars awaY read more

I had mixed feelings about Mama's. Parking is difficult to find and people drive like they've purchased their driver's license instead of actually getting tested. Unfortunately, this isn't somewhere I'd go again because just navigating through the parking lot was stressful. We walked in and the place was packed. We gave the host our name and waited for a pretty long time before being seated. We got off the waitlist and decided to order takeout instead. I ordered pizza. It was a bit greasy and was a bit too salty for me (buffalo chicken slice). As I've mentioned before, I'm not sure if I would go back for their specialty pizzas again but I'd like to give their entrees a try along with their regular pizzas. read more

I had a retirement party and Amato were so accommodating. The food was not to be serve style. My guests are still talking about the food the atmosphere and the service I couldn't have been better. I've never had such a great experience. it was the best Italian food I've ever tasted, and the servings are huge! They serve style and don't skimp on anything. I can't be was wonderful. I recommend anybody to go there who wants good Italian food and plenty of it and good service and good ambience. read more

This place is excellent. Today was a good day to go. There was no waiting time for a table, which was very unusual in this place, the food was great, I had the Veal parmigiana, and my wife had the Chicken a la nona. Delicious. It's been a while since we went there. It seems as if they have made some changes in the restaurant. It seems a little crowded but like always clean and well lit. read more

Having the linguine with white clam sauce now and didn't expect to like it this much. Nicely seasoned and although I prefer a bunch of while steam clams on my linguine I'll give this the 4 stars because it was just so tasty. Two whole clams and the rest chopped up in a delicious white sauce. I was craving it and when that happens I'm usually disappointed - the dish rarely stacks up to expectations but it did this time. read more

Local and well regarded Italian pizza/ restaurant spot. Tuesday pasta night with 20+ entrees at 22$. Immense portions. Good flavor. Interesting local color. Decent house wine. Fine decor: overworked bathroom and waitstaff. Slow service once meals appear. Don't plan to linger cause they want you in and out. I great choice for good food and local color, and what a deal on Monday! Try it for sure.!! read more

Never disappoints, huge portions of delicious food. My go to place for Italian food. All of our birthdays and celebrations occur here.

Decent food, very large portions and excellent service. We had a few of the specials which were very good, the portions are so large 2 people can absolutely share any entree. The wait staff is so experienced with wrapping leftovers up, they move about the restaurant with a little repacking station for you to take home. Nice touch. read more

The order was done promptly however the calzones bottom was badly burnt and it was a take out order. Mama's might have had a good Italian red sauce at one time but now it is really like watered down paste with very little seasoning. Really a sad experience. No self respecting Italian would serve their sauce.. ever! It will probably be our last order from them! read more

We love everything about mamas it's a great place! Food is great fast takeout service clean place!

I've eaten here twice. The first time I had pizza and had a pretty good experience. This was during sandy, so over 10 years ago, I wasn't doing yelp reviews. I would have given this place a 4 or 5 star. Most recently I've had the chicken night special and cannot express enough disappointment. The only thing that keeps this review from not being 1 star is that they did not destroy the chicken breast. I got the breast of Ala zingara. As a cook myself, I know the artichokes were from a can, the peppers were from a jar, the food wasnt seasoned, the garlic knots were under salted, under seasoned (garlic and parm) and under cooked (needed 15 more min in my toaster). Cheesecake was an included dessert that was plain and ricotta based. It was fair at best, but lacked the richness of a cream cheese cheesecake. Going by the fact this this eatery is in business and is still doing well saddens me about the clientele that is paying exorbitant amounts of money for jarred and canned food on a plate. It's really not about the money as much as the acceptance that this is "dine out" food. Portions are good and service is good. Food is for sure subpar. Not yet disgusting, but disappointing. Next they will serve stouffers for $50pp, all you can eat. read more

Mamas of Copiaque is a must to go eat at. Their garlic knots are to die for and they keep filling the basket hot and a lot of garlic so good. Went with family and had such a great menu, they have chicken night pasta night and now in Nov will have steak night. When you eat here there is so much food that you can't finish so you will have left overs for next day to enjoy. The chicken parm was so delicious I can get this everyday and comes with side order or pasta. On special nights you get salad , entree , cheese cake ans coffee all for one price. Visit here for dinner , drinks or just pizza and sit in the restaurant and listen to Italian music as if you were in Italy. They treat you like family the staff are professional and greet you with a smile . You feel like you are home having a home cooked meal from nonna. Love this place. Roberto the waiter is so professional funny and always has the right choice if you can't make up your mind on what to eat. Adam and Amato treat you like family. You come here and you don't have any to leave. Thank you guys for always treating us like family and the food is amazing and tasty. This is my number 1 place for Italian cuisine. Stop by for a drink and relax at the bar or have a seat and get a wonderful meal so much to choose from. Hope to see you there and support this family run restaurant. read more

I love Mama's for their specialty pies! The shrimp pesto pizza is my personal favorite, but we also like getting their chicken arugula and chicken marsala deep dish pizzas. They're definitely on the pricier side, but worth it as a treat every now and then. (4 stars because we dined-in once before and weren't impressed by the pasta and risotto we got. We've decided to stick to their take-out pie options instead.) read more
