    Nicely decorated inside .They also have a nice outdoor area where they have a pizza oven built into a horse trailer. Although it was all over priced. My friend had the prongs in the photo served in a sauce with bread. This and my meal were overpriced and small serving size. Our waitress was very attentive. Tables are very close together.

    Everything we ordered was unreal. The prawns were huge and packed with flavor, easily some of the best I've had. The burrata was fresh, creamy, and balanced so well with the accompaniments that it disappeared way too fast. And the budino omg, next level. Rich, smooth, and the kind of dessert you think about long after you leave. The vibe, the service, the food, everything just hits. Definitely one of those spots you'll keep going back to.

    Really delicious dinner at mamasamas! We came on a weekday and the restaurant was buzzing with energy. There is plenty of parking and both indoor and outdoor seating. We were lucky enough to come on a day when they were serving pizza and we really enjoyed it, I loved the thin crust and flavorful toppings. Their cocktail menu has many different options and is written as a screenplay which I found very creative. Our server checked in on us frequently and even gave us parmesan and red pepper flakes with our meal which was thoughtful. Of the appetizers we got, my husband really enjoyed the carpaccio and the arancini. I really enjoyed the pappardelle ragu and thought my leftovers were even better the next morning. I'm excited to go back to try more of their pizzas, cocktails, and get the ragu again!

    Very beach vibe almost south beach in sense from the decor and layout. The menu was simple and straightforward with its selections of foods. Loved the drinks menu with its variety of highlighted speciality cocktails. Our server was amazing even with a super busy night she and the rest of the staff made sure everything came out perfectly and was attentive. The food was ok, but that is just my opinion in my preferences as the noodles were cooked to almost al dente but could have done another 2 mins. The appetizer was good.

    I thought I was certain of my fav Jax Italian restaurant... now I'm not so sure! This place is amazing It's so cute inside! They took a very small space and made it work! we did make a reservation to be sure we could get in! The menu is small but it's great bc it's already hard enough to pick what to have! The drinks were great! The aptz all sounded great but we settled with the burrata! We had the mushroom rigatoni and the gnocchi! Yum! The staff was all so sweet! I can't wait to go back

    Mamasamas delivers an exceptional culinary experience with standout dishes that left us thoroughly impressed. The meatballs were delicious and the marinara sauce too good to waste so we used the beautifully baked bread to finish it off! The burrata was the best I've ever tasted, the truffle, honey, oil accompanied the most gorgeous orange, yellow and red tomatoes and cheese. I'm still thinking about this appetizer. The seabass over cauliflower purée was cooked to perfection--delicate, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. Equally memorable was the braised beef pappardelle, rich and comforting with a depth of flavor that speaks to real care in the kitchen. While the food was undeniably top-tier, the dining room setup left something to be desired. Seating was quite tight, making it difficult for both staff and guests to move around comfortably. Because of the tight seating the noise level was a bit high and it was difficult to have a conversation across our table of two. At times, it felt a bit cramped, which took away from the otherwise perfect ambiance. That said, if you're there for the food--and you should be--Mamasamas is more than worth a visit!

    Cozy Italian restaurant located in a strip mall plaza. I had a little difficulty finding it. Service was great, food was okay. Lovely ambience for girls night

    I don't know HOW we were able to get into this place, but we did. I'm pretty sure the night we came was on their soft opening, and someone else no showed so the waitress took pity on us for checking in on Yelp (a feature she did t even know existed and was active yet because it was their first day lol). The bread. Flawless. The pistachio pesto pasta. Magic. The espresso martini. Divine. This will be the new go to spot that will give Catullo's a fierce run for their money. Get your reservation now because they WILL be full for awhile!!

    Gnocchi and Rigatoni Boscaiola
    Madison B.

    Some of the best pasta in Jax! The mushroom rigatoni is outstanding, I've ordered it everytime I've returned to Mamasamas. The cocktails are also incredible. The Benvenuto is my personal favorite. Service is lovely and the atmosphere is perfectly dreamy. Great for date night or a girls night! Awesome addition to Jax beach!

    Rigatoni Salsiccia
    Erica N.

    Great first experience!! We started off with some of the specialty cocktails, the burrata & arancini. Highly recommend both of those apps. Ordered the Rigatoni Salsiccia & Pappardelle Boscaiola, which were both so tasty and fresh. Cozy atmosphere inside (the outdoor space isn't a great vibe), and wonderful service. Can't wait to go back and try some of their other dishes!

We brought friends this time who had never been here before and really loved it. One had his ice cream between 2 big chocolate chip cookies making it a giant flying saucer. (Toppings are included with this like chocolate sauce or sprinkles.) I only wish they were open during the day ( hours are usually 6/7 pm til 10/11) because sometimes you just want ice cream during the day.

It was reminiscent of a slice of cheesecake but having it cold made a unique desire to keep eating until the bottom of the cup. 2.

It has a large menu with many sandwiches, meats, sausages, among other great stuff to choose from. Our first moments here began by just navigating around the restaurant to see what it was all about. There are large number of wine and beer selections. Though I abstain from alcoholic beverages, I would guess that most are of the European variety - they have beer on the tap setup across from the dessert counter. After the quick self-tour and a conversation with the manager, we lodged in our seats and got ready to order. I actually was hoping the cafe offered speciality coffee like a latte, but that was quickly dashed when the server said they only served regular or decaf coffee. Initially I was disappointed but ordered one anyway. When it arrived and I dressed it up a little with some Splenda and Coffee Mate, I found it to be one the best regular cups of coffee I've had in a long time. We took a while to order because it is a sizable menu. However, I was sold immediately on the Rueben sandwich selections and just need to pick one. I settled on the classic Rueben, which was a mix of corned beef, pastrami, sauerkraut, cheese, a superb Thousand Island-type dressing on pumpernickel bread - it was delicious from start to finish! I will note that you can choose other breads and cheeses with the Ruebens. Some options may come at added cost. I'm glad it was large enough to take some home with me. My dearest chose the turkey Parisian. This was a splendid choice with a nice mix of excellent deli turkey, Brie, raspberry sauce, cucumber, and lettuce on a large croissant. Both sandwiches were more than worth the price of admission! Our server displayed excellent courtesy and care throughout our eating experience. I greatly appreciate the manager taking time to chat with me as well. I really felt good at European Street Cafe! With the fantastic artistry on the walls, the large setting of wooden tables and chairs well-spaced and well-organized on both sides of the interior has the look of a classic cafe that has been around for a good number of years. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and has a nice outdoor patio area not far from the entrance. I think I found a great place to visit when I crave a Rueben sandwich! This one today felt like a Time Machine moment for me as my mom made them like this when I was a kiddo! Thanks for making this visit special today European Street Cafe! Recommend: VERY HIGH
