Carbonara
Don H.

This popular restaurant near Hyde park serves delicious Italian cuisine. The menu includes many traditional dishes, as well as a nice selection of pizza options. The staff was exceptional and very accommodating. The carbonara was a great recommendation by our server.

For those who don't know this place, they are special because every quarter apparently new Italian moms come to recreate dishes / the menu! How cool is that??? The burrata was sooooo gooood Everything else was okay. Hahaha. Kidding aside on the okay note, the starters are filling. I'll start off with what was mediocre, the potato soup and the stew/soup was okay. They both tasted as they looked and sounded. The cheeses were great! And the meats had a strong taste to them. Could be good or bad depending on the customer. The sausage from the starters were not so great, but everything else made up for it! As a main, I had the truffle pizza which was pretty solid..!

The "4 Estagio" pizza.

Stopped into this quaint little restaurant. We got seated and served quickly. Getting a pizza (for 2) and we were impressed with the thin, crisp crust, ham, cheese and artichoke. I recommend this one (4 Estagio).

Food was good. Service excellent. Good ambiance for a small place. Our server was fun and attentive

Lasagna.
Paul S.

On our way to Logan Airport, we ate at our favorite Italian restaurant in Boston. After all, with a week holiday planned in England, we weren't expecting to look for or find great Italian food. Great Italian food found us. After checking in to the Hyde Park Hilton, we wandered around Queensway looking for a place for dinner. We didn't pay too much attention to Mamma Mia when we walked by, and returned after we saw they had one of the highest Yelp ratings in the neighborhood. The first hint of excellence was the joy with which we were greeted. The enthusiasm for the food had a solid foundation, as we struggled to make a choice from a delicious (albeit optically challenged) menu. Rather than settle for one item, we decided to order a pizza and a lasagna and share both. I recommend this strategy, as both dishes were incredible. The lasagne was this hot backed cheesy casserole of mozzarella, bolognese sauce, bechamel, and happiness. As a New Yorker by birth, transplanted to Boston, the pizza crust was unique. It wasn't thick, but wasn't as thin as a traditional New York pie. It was a little more bread-like than I am used to; it is a flavorful bread that would be enjoyed as a standalone snack, and it lives in perfect harmony with the toppings. Save room for dessert. We shared a Panna Cotta and a Gelato. This was a perfect combination, following the beautifully flavored Panna Cotta with a refreshing finish of the Gelato. Negatives: 1. The name. Mama Mia? I expected to hear Abba singing in the background. I think the terrible name is designed to discourage casual passers-by from overcrowding this wonderful little restaurant. (Without Yelp, we wouldn't have entered.) This place doesn't need a name, except as an anchor for a Google search. 2. The descriptions on the menu are inscribed in tiny, red type. I used my 2x lens on my iPhone to read the small print. At the next table, a woman used the phone and the flashlight to read it. That said, if I lived in London, I would eat here every week and I wouldn't need to read the descriptions. This treasure is on Queensway, a short walk from the Queensway (Central Line) and Bayswater (Circle & District Line) Underground stations. It's worth the trip.

Mama Mia's classic pizza and GF penne with truffle and mushrooms.

Food was delectable and so tasty we finished every last bite. However we got pretty ill later that night so I'm not sure how fresh the ingredients are or if they were the best quality - perhaps it was just an off night. Even though the food was amazing, I don't think we will be returning here to risk getting sick again. The ambiance was very nice and the menu had gluten free options for pasta.

Very good Italian restaurant. Food (pasta & gnocchi) was delicious and there was a lot of it in the plate. Service was fast and efficient. Highly recommended! No table reservation necessary when we arrived on Friday evening around 7pm. Very good cost-quality ratio.

It is a small sit, so reservations are a must, although they did accommodate some walk-ins. Everything was freshly made which added to an elevated experience. Service was perfect balance of being prepared to execute as well as being able to spending time getting to know each other. This palace is highly recommended!

My mom is, which is why we went but there are rather limited options, at least on pasta courses, that don't include pecorino. 2 - we tried three different pasta dishes. What made them truly stand out was the freshness of the pasta. That said, the sauces weren't remarkable. I tried a special pasta with pecorino, butternut squash, and mushrooms which was nice and not heavy but not partial flavorful. 3 - the ambiance is great if you like a small restaurant- with maybe 10 tables and 500 sq ft of space, this restaurant has character and charm. 4 - the service was outstanding. The staff were kind and efficient. 5 - the dessert was just OK - had some scoops of ice cream and the peanutella was outstanding while the strawberry and the pistachio were just fine. 6 - the appetizer cheese plate was the real highlight of the night here. Fresh cold cuts and cheese with the most wonderful fig jam. All in all; this is a good stop and you certainly won't have a bad experience! Perhaps just not the most notable.

We came across this place and had a preview of their menu. When we saw food we would like to try we walked in. We were sat almost immediately. It was a little slow when we first arrived but soon picked up. The staff was super friendly and the place gave a quaint home like feel. We sat down and ordered some cocktails and water. We didn't want to stuff ourselves so we order the margarita pizza and an order of fries to share. Everything came out pretty quickly. We were offered a spicy oil for our meal. The guy said it was spice but to be honest it was on the more mild side of spicy. I like spicy food and this wasn't spicy enough for me. Maybe some chili pepper flakes mixed in what have been the spicy I was expecting. My friend and I enjoyed our meal and the service. I think everything was good. The reason for my four stars was because the basil (although fresh) was scarce in my pizza. The guy also had to substitute the drink we ordered with a syrup he had in stock because the one the drink calls for wasn't available. Also, who wants to pay £4 for a bottle of water to share. Crazy. Other then those small criticisms I would come back. I think it's worth coming back to. Give them a try and judge for yourself. My tastebuds and stomach were very happy.

Giancarlo responded via email to let us know what pastors and pizza did not have eggs. We were able to order, spaghetti, rigatoni, and any pizza. We really appreciated the early notice. We each ordered a pasta or a pizza, and also split lamb chops at the table. Everything was yummy. The kids ordered the spaghetti all'Amatriciana, Rigatoni alla Genovese, and the Diavola pizza. They all finished their healthy sized portions (especially the pizza) and joked with the wait staff about the amount of Parmesan that our youngest had on his pasta. My wife had the Gnocchi con Nduja e Salsicca (which was so good! And she didn't finish and we brought some home) and I had the Margherita pizza with some of the Lamb Chops. The pizza was a little more doughy than we thought it would be, but it was unique and so flavourful! My eldest som even had a bite. The Lamb Chops smelled and tasted amazing, just the perfect amount of char grill on it. All the staff were friendly. The waitress working the desserts was prepping them right beside our table. That convinced us to get three desserts to share. We had the Gelati, the Belgium Apple Flan, and the After Dinner Mint. Our youngest licked the Mint dessert clean, loved it. The wafers in the Gelati may have had eggs so the allergy free folks in our group ate them. Everything was scrumptious. Great spot, great ambience, and really friendly staff. This place was steady, and it looked like there were a number of locals who frequent the spot. That doesn't surprise him because everything but the spirits was just excellent. Thank you so much to the staff for a wonderful night.
