    Veal parmesan - really good
    Raymond R.

    Terrific family owned and operated Italian restaurant! Feels very authentic with an inviting atmosphere. The service from the bartender whose name I forget was very cordial and sincere. The food is classic Italian, we had the carbonara, amitriciana, Caesar salad, and veal Parmesan. Everything was great. You could tell the Caesar salad dressing is made in house. The pastas are freshly prepared, carbonara is classic without cream, the veal Parmesan was great and reasonably priced at $41, unlike some other local joints that charge over 80 bucks for the same dish and is not nearly as good! Definitely looking forward to going back and trying out some of their other dishes

    We live in Tucson, but we like to come here when we are in town. Today we came back for brunch/breakfast and it was delicious! We made reservations and were seated immediately. The service and the food was excellent. We ordered the Salsiccia (sausage, mushrooms, provolone, bell peppers, Parmigiano cream) and added bacon. And we got the Caraibica (cherry tomatoes, provolone, bacon, onions, parmigiano cream, avocado). Both were yummy and the Hash browns were cooked to PERFECTION in both dishes. We also had the Fragile and cream pancakes (eye catching and delicious!). We have had their pastas and breakfast, now we must come back to try their pizzas next time we are in town

    Lasagna

    Service was very welcoming and helpful with the menu and recommendations. I enjoyed the warm atmosphere for the restaurant and the warm lighting, the Italian music playing in the background was a plus! I was visiting Phoenix for a work trip missing my Italian cuisine from back home (The Hill in St. Louis ) and Mamma Lucy hit the spot! I enjoyed the pizzelle more than I had anticipated honestly, the dough was crisp and airy but still soft/chewy, and the sauce was very rich. Very fresh and very flavorful. The lasagna was delicious as well, although not as flavorful as the sauce for the pizzelle, a bit muted flavor wise but still a solid lasagna!

    Came here with my best girlie because the Girl Dinner menu kept showing up on my Instagram. Such a cute Italian spot! The restaurant is bigger than it looks, the vibes are adorable, and the staff was so kind. For $20, you get a salad, pasta, and a martini or wine (before tax/tip), plus they have happy hour during select times. I got the Caesar salad, carbonara, and white wine. Soooooo filling! The carbonara was a little richer than I expected but still delicious. We also tried the stracciatella gelato and crème brûlée. The desserts were just okay, so I'd probably skip them next time. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the pasta, deals, and cute atmosphere.

    I went here because they have $19 "Girl Dinner" a few nights during the week + their entire menu is 25% until 5:30pm or so for the summer and you can pair them together! The "Girl Dinner" had a few pasta options, Caesar salad and a glass of wine or martini! I loved the selection and play on the traditional "Girl Dinner". The server was open to explaining a few other things on the menu however, the service was very slow. It seemed like everyone else around us was getting their meal while we were waiting. The pasta and salad came out at the same time which was quite shocking. I'm thinking the delivery of the food was slow because of that. Inside of the restaurant was designed very nice and the tables had a good amount of decor on them. There was an unopened bottle of wine on the table which seemed odd since I almost thought it was a gift for us as a customer. We ordered gelato + crème brûlée for a dessert and I was not impressed at all by the gelato. I'm pretty sure it was ice cream since it was not creamy and the crème brûlée had a weird aftertaste to it plus the sugar was not completely toasted. Overall a good value but slow service and the pasta was kind of normal I wasn't super impressed but I also understand it was a prefixed menu!

    Hidden gem! This is a great Italian restaurant with delicious pasta and plenty of menu options to choose from. Everything we ordered was flavorful and well prepared. The atmosphere is wonderful, and the restaurant is spacious, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the service was fast and attentive. The only minor downside is that they don't offer a complimentary birthday dessert or special occasion treat, which would have been a nice touch. That said, the food, service, and overall experience were excellent. I would definitely come back and recommend it to others!

    I went to Mamma Lucy today for a late brunch with a girl friend. I was happily surprised to learn they are also participating in the fall AZ restaurant week! Although I ordered off the brunch menu, the presentation, taste, and texture of my fragola & crema pancakes was phenomenal; it was truly a masterpiece. Emily was so kind and attentive and made us feel like family. I would love to bring all my friends and family here in the future.

    Came for chef's week. The food was good. Atmosphere ok, service was pretty slow. I would note that I should've skipped chefs week and ate from the menu. We were there during happy hour where the menu is half off. Doing the math we overpaid by about $15 a person. Oh well, live and learn. The sauces were really excellent, fresh and you could tell chef made.

    Meatball calamari
    Jenna T.

    Family casual local vibe! Pasta was Al dente and delicious! The trio is fun for a group. Meatball was phenomenal Our server, Chris, was funny and very knowledgable! He was a bit upsell-y (as I'm sure he's told to be). Not a huge issue for me I could see others possibly caring about that. Great pricing! Will return! Would love to try veal parm!

    Emma S.

    The girl dinner deal here is so good! You can get a pasta and a salad for only $19 plus a glass of wine or a martini. They also have some other great specials this summer and the food was really good. Service was also great! Would highly recommend.

    Cindy L.

    Jessica was fabulous very helpful and informative. It was our first time there and it will not be our last. We ordered the pasta trio because we didn't know what to expect. Well, it turns out we were pretty happy with all of it. It's nice to have some authentic Italian food that doesn't cost you an arm and a leg really just like the decor. The venue is very nice even has a little outdoor patio. All the staff was dressed very professional until you saw the new hostess arrive. She really put a black eye onto that experience. She was dressed in like an oversized sweater type mauve in color that had the big word of Boston on top and her sweatpants were not appealing. Looks like the place has a dress code. Maybe they need to tell her to spruce up.. I WOULD RECOMMEND

    Espresso Martini
    A. M.

    This was our first time at Momma Lucy's, and it definitely won't be our last! Everything from the food and drinks to the service was outstanding. We started with the Bruschetta e Burrata, and it was absolutely delicious with fresh, vibrant flavors. For dinner, our table had the Rib Eye with Italian fries, Spaghetti Alla Positano, Famous Pizzele, Polpette, and I had the La Regina Carbonara with Rigatoni. Every dish was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. You can tell they take pride in every meal they serve. The Espresso Martinis were amazing and were the perfect way to enjoy the evening. Our server, Chris, was exceptional. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. He truly helped make our first visit memorable. The restaurant was a little noisy, but that's because it had such a fun, lively atmosphere filled with people enjoying themselves. It added to the experience rather than taking away from it. If you're looking for authentic Italian food, outstanding cocktails, and excellent service, I highly recommend Momma Lucy's. We can't wait to come back!

    Zozzona
    Nooshin W.

    This was serious authentic Italian food! It really felt like we were eating the dishes in Italy! Also loved the ambience, the service, and the whole experience I suggest getting the Zozzona, the lobster ravioli was a bit too heavy for me, but still delicious

We had never really tried Italian food at a restaurant and this has absolutely just blown our minds! It's so good. We started off with a Caesar salad, which was tossed perfectly and Caesar dressing topped off with some pepper. Great salad great taste. And then we had the fried calamari with its sauce and its lemon, which was also extremely good. Loved how authentic it tasted and wasn't overly coated in flour. For our entrée we had a fettuccine shrimp Alfredo, which was very good. It was by far one of the best Alfredos we have ever had truly set the bar. The shrimp and noodles were cooked to perfection. For the star of the night had to be the lobster risotto. First time trying, and I was absolutely blown away of how delicious it tasted. And how awesome the presentation looked. And how much lobster was in the risotto. Absolutely a must try * only served weekends*. The birthday dessert was a tiramisu, which was really good. Overall, I appreciate the hospitality really enjoyed eating here. If you're ever in ot Scottsdale, you should definitely try this spot.

I have never had anything like it before... literally so obsessed. I got the truffle pasta and soppressata pizza as a main.

The pizza on the other hand was delicious! It came with an infused pizza oil to add some spice which was a nice touch. We finished off with the pistachio dessert. I couldn't get much pistachio flavor but it was DELICIOUS. Highly highly recommend if it is on the menu

We started with the whipped feta and arancini. The whipped feta was a friend's recommendation and was delicious. I could do without the sweet sauce added to it though. The arancini were the best I've ever had with the perfect amount of crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. We opted for a surf and turf vibe with the New York strip steak and chile shrimp. The steak had great flavor but the shrimp...WOW, so freaking good. I'm still dreaming about the pasta with the shrimp. They were the most perfectly cooked and seasoned noodles ever. Will literally be going back for this alone. For dessert we tried the tiramisu and flourless chocolate torte. The tiramisu was creamy but lacked a stronger coffee taste that I prefer. The torte was my favorite of the two. You would almost not be able to tell it's flourless, just as creamy and delicious as you would want! We also tried a cocktail that was their version of a lemon drop. It tasted like fresh lemon but not as sour as I prefer a lemon drop to be. Still smooth and delicious!

    SENTRY - WATCHING RESTAURANTS…read more EVO - Old Town 4175 N Goldwater Blvd Scottsdale, 85251 It's Restaurant Week again, so it was time to partake of new places to eat. EVO was on the list of places to eat, so I decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. We were seated immediately and were offered menus and libations. We chose glasses of Trapiche Malbec which is a very soft and delicious wine. While the Restaurant Week menu was very nice, we decided to order off the regular menu. For myself, Poblano Chicken Rigatoni, and for companion Fennel Sausage Pasta. Ask any Italian restaurant if they know how to cook pasta, and they will all say they are experts. Most of them would be telling a lie. This place is expert in how to cook pasta. It's rare that I have been served properly cooked pasta, but tonight was the night that I finally got it. Perfectly cooked al dente with a lovely sauce that wasn't too thin and watery. Companion agreed that the pasta was wonderful. Due to a small mix up in the order, the Calamari (Frito Misto) was brought to the table late, but we made a valiant effort to devour some of it. While I did not care for the sauces that accompanied it, they would have only masked the excellent flavor and cooking of the dish, which only needed a sprinkle of salt and nothing else. It too was perfectly cooked. For dessert, we ordered the Butter Cake at the beginning of the meal since it takes 20 minutes to cook it. If I ate nothing else in the restaurant, this would be my choice! Swimming in a pool of Creme Anglais, was a beautifully carmelized cake with a sliced strawberry on top and pieces of raspberry in the sauce. It was magnificent and as stuffed as we were, we managed to finish it.

I did go on a first date here and maybe not as romantic as I would have liked -- much more of a family vibe -- or in the bar area was all about sports. It wasn't too loud so that was good since we were doing a lot of talking, LOL. It was a Saturday night and my date had made a reservation but it looked like we could have easily gotten a table without one. There is a parking lot but couldn't tell if it was easy parking because we took an Uber since we were drinkiing. I started with an espresso martini and I would give it a 4/10 -- I think the espresso used was low quality because it wasn't my favorite. My date got a whiskey old fashioned and he liked it. Service was pretty good -- it was a busy Saturday night. I wanted to order a glass of wine with my meal but the server was gone for some time so my date had to flag her down. I ordered the halibut with crab on top and the server recommended a white wine to pair -- I thought it was an usual suggestion but went with it -- she didn't even suggest which white - so I went with a Sav Blanc and it was actually quite good -- I didn't catch the name. We started with some shrimp cocktail and that was pretty good, sauce was tasty. The halibut was actually quite good and cooked to perfection - the crab on top was really good too -- it came on a bed of linguini which was too much -- I didn't really eat that. My date had the filet special with a lobster sauce -- it looked really rich and the portion was huge! He couldn't even eat it all. Overall I enjoyed my meal, I was quite full when we left, LOL! I didn't catch how much the total cost was but I think it had to have been at least $200 -- so definitely some dough will be dropped! But for a special occasion it is worth it.
