A snowstorm couldn't keep me from trying Mama's Pizza. I saw the recent post noting "Mama's Pizza as one of the 100 best pizzas in the USA!" Got to give it a try and it's close by. Hadn't heard about it them prior but like my Mom, she isn't one to call a lot of attention to herself. Called in a take out order and was handled professionally and pleasantly. 30+ mins later I am on my way to pick up my order. I arrived on schedule despite the weather. What a cute little spot on the corner! I was greeted by a lovely lady, Mama?, who was happy to see me. I gave her my name and shared that I was a first time customer. Her co-worker, a gentleman, heard that and promptly rewarded me with a candy bar from out of thin air. So kind! We chatted, laughed and shared some history. She warned me about potential cheese slide and how to prevent it from happening. A truly classic MN small town type of warm welcome and interaction. It's the type of experience that makes you want to come back again even before trying the food. The pizza! The crust was thin and crisp. Lots of cheese, no slide issues, all nicely melted. Square cut pizza slices. The toppings were plentiful and the sauce was perfect in quantity. The flavors came together in a truly satisfying taste - old school, classic pizza! My wife thought they were a bit too generous with the cheese, I disagree. The sauce had great flavor, not too sweet. I really enjoyed this pizza and the whole experience. I will definitely be back. read more

Finally found my way here after so many recommendations! I ordered take out for lunch and purchased a small dish of mostaccioli, side salad and the flavor explosion 10" mini pizza. The flavor explosion pizza is unreal and has in my opinion, all the best ingredients: sausage, pepperoni, bacon, pineapple and banana peppers. Even ordering the smallest items is plentiful enough for left overs. There is a spacious parking lot towards the back of the building making this trip seamless. The service is as kind, quick and considerate. I can't speak towards the ambiance because it appears the dining room is closed and there are only take out items at this time. From what I saw, the dining area looked clean, cozy and inviting (there were even some amazing looking holiday ornaments hung from the ceiling). I can't wait to come back again. Thank you, Mamma's! read more

The last three times we went in for take-out the owner acted like we were doing a disserve for coming there. The only reason we went back was because we like the pizza. He complained he was so busy and never gets a break. Well....being busy is a good thing. That equates to money! I asked about catering for an event and he said," probably go somewhere else - I can't guarantee I can do it". Well than take off "catering" on your website. Not sure what's going on but likely won't go back. He acts like we are a pain in the butt. I'll take my butt and healthy tip somewhere that it is appreciated. Not here! read more

so i was here with my buddy JOSH.... and we were on a quest to do something cool... so JOSH took it upon himself and bought a whole bunch of pizzas, when he asked what gives....

Awesome pizza and consistent. Crips cracker crust and lots of cheese and toppings! Delish !

I've heard so much about this place and their pizza's. Many, many years. Finally tried it. I wasn't too impressed and did not find it better than other places. I wanted to order two pizza's but wasn't sure with the second one we got. They didn't seem to be too fresh. The thin crispy crusts were somewhat scorched like it had been sitting for quite a while. A lot of cheese though. Not sure I'd try again! read more

The best Italian food in the Twin Cities at great prices. Tony has the greatest pizza's and Italian takeout ever!

This isn't hyperbole. Mamas is the best pizza in Saint Paul. Nothing else even comes close. Once you encounter the pizza with its generous flavorful toppings and delightful crust, every other pizza joint's pizza will taste bland and subpar. Try it. The pizza sells itself. read more

As always, mamas has the best best pizza! I will occasionally use the fork because it the pizza so loaded with toppings!

Yearly we get together with Friends and Celebrate with Mama's Pizza! I ordered 2 pizza's from Michelle & sides of Pizza Sauce, she did everything EXACTLY as requested As ALWAYS the Food was PHENOMENAL! Thank you Michelle & Mama's Pizza read more

This has been a long time staple in Saint Paul. Some of the best pizza I've had. The flavor explosion is excellent, but everything here is very tasty. You will not be disappointed. read more

Mama's Pizza - Flavor Expision - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

I will preface this by saying we did not grow up in St Paul. We've been in Minnesota for 8 years and all of our neighbors rave about Mama's Pizza so we finally tried it out. My husband got the meatball sandwich with cheese, but it was not what you'd expect. It's like a baked casserole with sandwich sliced bread, sliced meatballs smothered in marinara and covered with cheese. We also got a pepperoni pizza and the cheese Italian fries. Everything was very salty and greasy. The pizza and fries were OK just not our thing. The meatball sandwich was just a huge disappointment. I don't understand why it's marketed as a sandwich. The staff were lovely and neighbors love them so maybe their style of food is your thing. It's just very different. read more

I was in town with my brother from Houston. This is definitely one of the best pizza I have ever had. We ordered a large pepperoni and it was amazing read more

Mama's Pizza - Pepperoni large Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Mama's returned from the plague with still the best pizza in the Twin Cities, PERIOD! My wife and I are so happy they did not change their food. It's tops in these parts! Our pizzas yesterday caused us to repeat again and again "It's the best!" If only they could find the staff to reopen their dining room. But that is NO REASON to not order pickup. They deserve our business because they work hard and still produce the best! We drive from New Brighton as we always have and that short drive is worth it in any weather. About 20 minutes. No big deal. I hope the fragrance of the pizza remains in the car till next we order pickup. AWESOME! read more

Incredible pizza, the best in Saint Paul. If you haven't had it... order it for pick up, you won't regret it!

My heart belongs to Mama's! I have been a fan of Mama's Pizza since I was a kid. I love getting mostaccoli and meatballs with their heavenly crusty bread. You can order any pastas with melted cheese all over the top (most love it, I just don't like THAT much cheese). Every once in a great while, I change it up and order a special dago (hot dago with peppers, onions, and mushrooms), but that's only when I'm feeling in a not-pasta-mood. And you have to get the heart-shaped pizza on Valentine's Day. I can't wait for them to be open for dine-in again so I can eat my pasta with a bib on and get my tiny ice cream at the end of the meal. read more

I love the food! This place is my fiancés favorite pizza spot. They are local mom and pop type shop, so if you go there a lot you really get to know the staff. Only reason I took off 1 star is because I miss the dinning area and the ice cream. When you had a full meal (this was before Covid hit though), you would get a free ice cream cup. I also hope if they do open the dining area again, they could put in new small tvs! They are cute read more

Both my son and I are cramping and close to throwing up after eating this pizza. This is the last time I'll order this.

Arrived and sat ourselves in the dining room. It's a small room but they manage to get a lot of people in their. We ordered two pizzas and two garden salads. Both pizzas had great quality toppings. The rub on the pizza is that it is a cracker crust. It is thin which I like but the crust lacked moisture and flavor. This probably helped the toppings stand out. The sauce was good. My other knock was the salad - it had brown leaves in it. I pulled them out and while I completed the salad it just wasn't fresh. It may be tough to get fresh lettuce in MN, not sure. What was great was the little vanilla ice cream cone at the end of dinner. It was soft, creamy goodness on a sugar cone. Good stuff! I would go back if someone had to go - but not a top choice for this traveller. read more
