5 of us went for lunch before going to a play. Everyone's lunch was good except on gals pasta was over cooked! My cup of minestrone and slice of plain pizza was just what I needed. I forget to take a photo of the eggplant 2 of the gals had. This is my favorite of all the Mama Mia's locations! read more

We called and asked to make a reservation for 6 people for 5:30 in the dining room to celebrate a 40th birthday. The person on the phone was pleasant and the reservation was locked in. Upon arriving at the restaurant, nobody was at the hostess station for a few moments. We waited in line and told the hostess we had a reservation. She seemed overwhelmed and short tempered. She told us to take the table on the to-go side where the line was backed up to because they did not in fact even reserve anything for us. That table is clearly not part of the dining room and more for people waiting for their to-go orders. My wife asked if we could get a table in the dining room which we had a reservation for and was told by the hostess it's over an hour wait. Why take a reservation and not actually prepare to have that table held at the time when the reservation is for? The hostess was rude and non apologetic at all. We left and took our business elsewhere. read more

A regular in the rotation for my family. 90% of our orders from this location are take out. Food is always ready at the promised time and employees at the pick up counter are always pleasant. Great thin pizza with soft and doughy crust. Pasta dishes are all excellent. Their lasagna is made with sliced meatballs which is different and delicious. Super disappointed they took the American chop suey and cheese manicotti off their menu, these were 2 of our favorite dishes for years. Skip the garlic bread - it's just a sub roll for $9.50. Make sure to ask for extra dressing if you get a Caesar salad. read more

Where to start? I have tried this restaurant twice. It is, at best, mediocre. I will say the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The food is another story. Meatballs are tasteless. Chicken parm is served with watery sauce and 1 slice of mozzarella buried under the sauce. Frozen grocery store ravioli is just as good as their ravioli. Stuffed quohog is bland. Bread is just grocery store buns. There is absolutely nothing to rave about here. Best thing on the menu is pizza. read more

We've been going there since '92. Always a great meal. Constantly good, consistent, and delicious! Bread - good. Pasta - good. Pizza - good. Prices are great. Place is very clean. Staff is wicked nice. Since the remodel, there is more seating. Parking is plentiful too. No negatives whatsoever. A staple and a standard. read more

Consistency not even close to making estimated pickup times. I made mistake of giving them another try this evening. got my food almost 1.5 hours past pickup time. Two hours after ordering. Establishments that respect their patrons will usually pause take out orders until they can catch up. Not Hanover. read more

I had a very nice lunch which was very decent for the price and the flavor was great - also had my friend try it. Would have been nice to have some bread/butter. I had a cocktail and though it sounded like it was going to be sweet, found it sour as did my friend who also tried it. But I really enjoyed the chicken dish - Chicken Saltimbocca, with cavatappi pasta. read more

Best Italian pizza i have had on the South Shore since I moved here over 40 years ago!! PLEASE open a store near Randolph!!! Great service too!! read more

Our food was excellent. The veal is real not frozen and the chicken parm was huge and just as good. Service is marginal and so is the prices. All in all, a good place to eat and expect consistency Give it a try read more

The food was ok but I think we didn't enjoy it properly because of the ambiance of this place. Basically, we didn't feel welcome. The moment we walked in everyone's eyes were on us. The waitress acted like we were bothering her. I think I don't need to say ethnicity! read more

Move over abba -- mamma mia was more like mamma meh. If I was writing the review purely on service and friendliness alone, I would give it the gold star. Unfortunately my mom would not have been entirely happy with the chicken parm and chicken picatta we were served. She takes the good with the bad, and so will I. The chicken parm was well cooked and the breading was nicely seasoned. Unfortunately it was bathed in a red sauce lacking in depth of flavor. I was getting some good lemon notes from the chicken picatta. On both dishes, though the homemade noodles were bland -- which was a shame. I'd love to give mamma mia another try, particularly their pizza which seems to be the star. My mom would want that. read more

Omg! Mamma Mia's! Six locations. I went to the Hanover one. Joanne, our waitress/bartender was the best. As you can see in my pictures, you get a lot of food! It is the best Italian food that I've ever eaten!! The eggplant is my favorite. It is so decadent. You barely have to chew it. This is a must try place. So clean & homey. The seats are so comfortable if anyone has a bad back. I can't say enough. Go now! read more

We ordered 4 large pizzas to go. I requested extra eggplant on the 2 eggplant pizzas. We picked the pizzas up on time and they were cold. The 2 eggplant pizzas hardly had any eggplant on them. read more

Mamma Mia's - Hanover - This is supposed to be extra eggplant!! - Pizza Near Me - Hanover, Massachusetts

Have been coming to Mamma Mia's in Hanover for years and since the renovations and expansion, quality of food have diminished greatly. My previous reviews were rated 5 stars and now 2 stars. Service was lacking. Waited over an hour since we sat down to put our order in. Then waited to get the waitresses attention before we could refresh drinks. Another half hour for apps to arrive and it wasn't good. The large cheese pizza is no longer a size large pizza. More like a medium pizza. Barely fitting the pizza pan when the large pizza use to overhang the pan. Tasteless crust with barely enough cheese. Maybe an off night. Will give them another chance and try other items besides the pizza. read more

This is my go to lunch spot with my sons family. Food is very fresh and atmosphere is relaxed with friendly efficient wait staff. The perfect spot for my grandkids who always get special treatment and no fuss over spilled milk which is crucial for the under 5 crowd. I recommend the pizza and pasta dishes while my grandkids like the chicken fingers which are very good made with fresh all white chicken. read more

It's a great go to for family Friday night pizza. The food is fresh and consistently good.

This is a chain so caveat that upfront. I'm talking about the Hanover location only. Starting with Mark the bartender, top notch service with a sense of humor! The pizza was simple but perfectly done. Nice crust, the slices had minimal flop. Loved the sauce to cheese ratio. If I am channeling Dave Portnoy, I'd say 8.1. As for the lasagna, got it with spicy sauce. Had ample cheese and sliced meatball stuffing in layers under a blanket of the spicy sauce. We also ordered egg plant parm, the appetizer portion, and it was spot on. Generous portions! I'll be back for sure when I'm visiting Hanover. read more

Mamma Mia's - Hanover - Lasagna and pizza pie shown were delicious! - Pizza Near Me - Hanover, Massachusetts

Unfortunately, the service has gone way down at the Hanover location. It took 30 minutes to get our food; we were never asked if we needed anything else (drink, desert etc). We had to ask for rolls and when we were done eating it took another 30 minutes to get our check. I could understand if they were busy, but there was only 1 other couple eating. This is the second time this happen so I think it is time to go to a different venue. read more

The restaurant is pretty standard with a bar and an array of cafe tables. I went with two others, we ordered a vegetable pizza and a house special pizza (meats, peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc.). The service was fine, nothing to call out, basic service of orders and drinks. The pizza was bland. The house special pizza was so overloaded with toppings and the dough so minimally cooked that it couldn't stay together in the slightest. The pizzas were "wet" in the middle and led to puddles on all plates. Once all of us were back in the car to leave, we all had a separate remark about preferring to not come back again almost like a movie moment. Unfortunately, we all felt ill later that night and into the next day. Would strongly recommend trying something other than the pizza. read more

Stopped in for lunch recently and got the chicken, cheese and pesto tortellini. The food took a while to come out. It was good and the portion size was big. My friend ordered one of the lunch sandwiches, the bread was dry and fell apart. The inside of the restaurant is clean and we didn't have to wait for a table for a weekday lunch. read more

They have completely remodeled the inside and I took some photos for you to see. The restaurant side had their lights up so HIGH I felt like I was about to be interrogated. I said something to the waitress and she said something like that is how they want it. Their establishment, their rules. We ordered food to go and it was their special of the night. I asked to switch to pasta to spaghetti vs penne but when I got home it was penne (which they confirmed spaghetti to me) Anyways it was supposed to be artichokes, asparagus, red pepper with pasta in a wine-ish sauce. There was no asparagus and no red pepper and no spaghetti but the sauce was so tasty!! Kind of dissapointed but will try take out again (until they learn to lower their restaurant lights). read more

This is the best pizza ever when I bit this exquisite pizza my body was filled with joy I would come back here a million times

I really enjoyed it. We got a Margherita pizza. Everyone loved it. I also recommend their eggplant parmigian. It's sliced thin, delicious. The dining room in Hanover has been renovated recently. It is modern and cozy. Give it a try... get the eggplant or chicken parmigiana and a Margherita pizza. read more

Best chicken parm around imo. Huge serving so tender you don't even need a knife. Fra Diavolo sauce has great heat and opt for the home made noodles, definitely worth the $2 upcharge. read more

This was $7.95 for a children's ravioli - 4 small ravioli with butter on it. I assumed they got it wrong, but I called and they confirmed that this is the cost for what I received. Their pizza is so inconsistent - many times rushed and underdone. Mama Mias in Hanover is getting worse and worse. I keep giving it another shot but I'm continually disapointed. read more

I ordered a pizza on Sunday night. They weren't awfully busy when I entered for my pickup, so I'm kind of disappointed that I received the wrong pizza (pepper and onion, instead of pepperoni and onion). I live in Weymouth, so I wasn't driving back to exchange it.. Simple mistake, but I've been eating MMs pizza for decades and I know they're better than that. *Update* My order was also to include a meatball sub. Instead I received a chx parm sub. They did get the pasta salad correct though. Moral of the story is to check your order over there these days. Carry on... read more

Get a server who knows what she's doing & perhaps get a manager who gives a shit that they provided the WORST SERVICE EVER!!

1 of the Best pizza 100% recommend it everytime we go to the south shore we stop at mamma Mia's in Hanover or sometimes in Plymouth love it thank you guys read more

Place looked good from the road. Nice people and nice looking causal restaurant. We had veal and chicken parmigiana with pasta. Let's just say the best thing about the meal was the server refilling our soft drinks. Perhaps we caught them on a bad day or when the chef or top cook was out. read more

Very disappointed because we have had better meals at the other locations. Went on Monday night, not busy, was told to take our choice of seat. We had 4 people, the two tables open were not cleaned and the staff took a long time to respond. After 10 minutes we were seated and presented menus. I ordered Gnocchi which came very doughy and heavy with just plopped in a bowl. One order was Pork tenderloin and was chewy and hard to cut. The Chicken MArsala was dry. Not particularly happy since it was a slow evening, service was ehhh... read more

Ordered takeout a cheese pizza May 19,2024 for lunch. We started to eat it and it tasted terrible. Hardly any sauce, too much cheese and undercooked. It was a floppy, mushy mess. Been going there for years. Quality has greatly decreased. Pizza does not even taste the same. The prices have gone up as well and not worth what the food quality is. Won't go back.Not sure what happened. Maybe new owners or something. read more

Mamma Mia's used to be our go-to pizza place. The last two times I have had pizza there, it's been like bar pizza. It was so dry. I did ask for extra sauce, and although I was charged, there wasn't any. Did you change your recipe? read more

This place is a little farther than I would go for Pizza but I was wishing for their type of crust. I ordered Alfredo sauce (speciality) a, mushroom and jalapeño was super disappointed. The top was the consistency of soup. My sons Italian wrap was so soggy he had to eat it with a fork. I commend them for being so busy during this pandemic but a little pleasant personality would be nice. The front desk staff were like robots with no pleasantries whatsoever. Still like their regular pizza so just stick to that. read more

Food is decent - above average. Service is absolutely terrible. I will put up with bad service for amazing food - not for mediocre warmed over pizza. Many better options nearby read more

I honestly wasn't expecting it to be anything special but wow was it good! The menu is pretty extensive so it was a little difficult to choose what we wanted. We ordered take out and waited for about 10 -15 min. The girl behind the counter was very friendly as well. We ordered the cheese ravioli, the lasagna and the chicken and broccoli Alfredo. My favorite was the chicken and broccoli Alfredo. It was so delicious and creamy. The location isn't that big, so it may be difficult to dine in if it's busy. I would definitely go back! read more
