Large Chef salad
Jolene B.

First time eating here as Mamas Pizza Express. Food and take out service was great. Chicken Bellissimo pizza is very good and white sauce is a great option if the traditional red sauce is not an option for you. The chef salad was a good pairing with the pizza.

Average at best for Sub's. Pizza might be better. We've dined at Mama's Pizza Express in Cornelius and it's pretty good so wanted to try this one that just opened in the old Giovanni's Pizza on River Hwy. We had dined at the Giovanni's in Denver NC last weekend and frankly I did not see much of a difference and even the credit card receipt showed up as Giovanni's We started with Fried Mozzarella sticks which came our overdone. Should be gooey on the inside and these were crunchy on the outside and firm on the inside. Marinara sauce did not have any tang or contrast to it. We both order Meatball Subs. While the portions area huge, the meatball sub lacked anything that made it standout. Marinara sauce again was bland and the meatballs were just as bland. Not much to say about the service. We dined in so we went to the counter and ordered our meal. Were handed two cups for our self serve drink and I will say they at least brought our lunch to the table. Restaurant otherwise is very non-descript. Was not overly impressed

Pizza cheers

I booked my rehearsal dinner at Acqua Ragazza almost a year in advance and paid for the event in…read morefull ahead of time. Over the course of planning, I had multiple conversations with both previous management and the current events team making it explicitly clear that the food for our event needed to be gluten-free and that there was also a shellfish allergy to accommodate. Unfortunately, the experience we received was nowhere near what I expected after that amount of planning and communication. We had approximately 40 guests seated in a section in the back of the restaurant, while there were maybe three or four other occupied tables in the entire restaurant. Our group appeared to have one server. Drink orders were barely taken, and guests eventually had to go to the bar themselves to get drinks. The appetizers were served buffet-style, which was not what I expected for a prepaid sit-down rehearsal dinner. I personally asked the owner three separate times to please move the appetizer plates to the tables and place appetizers on each table instead. My requests were ignored, and the buffet-style setup continued. Dinner service was equally disappointing. Orders were taken sporadically, dishes arrived cold, the pasta was severely undercooked, and the chicken was bland and lacked even basic seasoning. Most concerning of all, I was served gluten more than once. I was the bride who booked and paid for the event, and I had repeatedly communicated that gluten was an allergy--not a preference--and that the food needed to be prepared accordingly. After nearly a year of planning and multiple conversations specifically about dietary restrictions, this was unacceptable. Two of my guests eventually spoke with the woman overseeing the evening. During the conversation, she stated that there wasn't anything more she could do because she was "just the manager." However, I later confirmed that she is actually the owner of Acqua Ragazza--her name and photograph are listed on the restaurant's own website identifying her as such. That made the response particularly disappointing because we were under the impression at the time that we were speaking with a manager who did not have the authority to do anything further. After considerable back-and-forth and an initial reluctance to take accountability, she ultimately apologized to me, comped the wine, and provided a $300 gift card. I appreciate that an apology and some compensation were eventually offered, but neither changes what happened. This was our rehearsal dinner, an event we only get once. Instead of being able to enjoy the evening before my wedding, I was embarrassed by the service and worried about whether the food I was being served was actually safe for me to eat. I will not be returning to Acqua Ragazza, and I will be giving the gift card away. For anyone considering hosting a large event here, particularly if anyone in your party has food allergies, I would strongly recommend taking my experience into consideration.

Then the bruschetta as an appetizer to share. They had a weekday special with insalata an entrée (he chose chicken parm) and a small dessert which my husband tried. I got the beef & veal tortellini in a bolognese sauce. Also e joyed a nice class of Cabernet. Everything was very good. Hot. Well made. Nice portions. They could use a bit more staffing so drinks came out more timely and empty dishes were cleared away. Overall I recommend and would certainly go again.

Their grilled Caesar salad is large enough to share, with deliciously charred romaine and homemade dressing. We also love sharing the arancini when we are not in the mood for a salad. For entrees, you can't go wrong with their pizza. It's one of our top favorites in the CLT area, as it's cooked in a wood-fired oven, and is both crispy and full of toppings. My husband particularly enjoys the Capricciosa, with artichokes, ham, mushroom, basil, and fresh mozzarella. Their calzones are really good, too. I usually get their lasagna, which is served in a bowl and is made to order. Their bolognese has a complex flavor, and the sauce-to-cheese quotient is just perfect. I always have some leftover to take home. If you have room for dessert, I highly recommend the deconstructed cannoli. It's homemade, and divine. Their gelato is well thought-out, served with a side of espresso to soften the ice cream and add a unique flavor. Presentation is carefully and well-thought out. Service is always good as well, no matter what time of day you visit (we prefer early dinners). We love this place, and will keep it on our "short list" for nearby dining!

From the service, to the food, to the atmosphere, we couldn't complain. We ordered Calamari, Mussels in the white sauce and Eggplant alla Mezzaluna- melt in your mouth and so much more to devour than you think. Thank you for giving my mom a great Italian experience!

I'll get the negative out of the way first. We were quoted a 30-40 minute wait for a table, but…read moreended up waiting close to an hour and 20 minutes. We were told there was a large party in the back that had already paid and finished eating but was still sitting at the table. I completely understand that asking a paying customer to leave can be an uncomfortable situation, but when a large group has finished their meal and remained for another 30+ minutes, it ultimately meant more than 10 other parties were waiting to be seated. It feels like a lose-lose situation for the restaurant either way, but I do think management needs to have a plan for situations like this. The wait was especially frustrating because we were given a much shorter estimate initially. I'd also love to see them start accepting reservations -- it would make the experience much easier to plan around. Now, for the important part: the food! Once we were seated, everything came out quickly, hot, and delicious. We all started with the Caesar salad, which was well-dressed, flavorful, and a great classic way to start the meal. We each ordered a different entrée, and everyone loved what they got -- always a good sign when you're dining with a group! We finished with the cannoli, which was the perfect ending to a really nice meal. We will definitely return because the food was that good. I just hope management can address some of the front-of-house issues, particularly the long waits, enforcing reasonable table turnover when needed, and adding reservations. The food is worth coming back for -- hopefully the overall experience improves to match it!
