So: I passionately enjoyed my dinner at Mamma Roma. The reason that this is unusual is because I'm…read morenot big on going out for Italian food much at restaurants - other than on holidays - since I eat so much Italian food at home. I can make an exception for more casual Italian meals at only a handful of Italian restaurants, and Mamma Roma's is now one. Growing up partially Italian, and a mix of other ethnicities, my family cooks Italian better, of course, than at any restaurant. No one made better Italian dinners than my Na-na (grandmother). But Momma Roma's hummus cream rigatoni could definitely keep me coming back for more. No one made better meatballs than my Mom but the meatballs at Mamma Roma's are flavorful enough. No one made better sauce than my Aunt #1 but the sauce on Momma Roma's ravioli was good and so fresh. And no one made better cookies than my Aunt #2, but Momma Roma's cannolis and rum cookies are tasty. There are a lot of Italian restaurants in the area and I've read that Mamma Roma's is one of, if not, the best. I can only say that while my first visit here a decade ago was fine, this visit goes into my memory as "need to get back there, eventually, if not sooner," after delighting in their new menu item: a creamy hummus rigatoni with sausage. I love hummus, though wasn't really sure if the texture of hummus sauce would be too gritty. It was not. It had a lovely, substantial flavor and silky texture that was balanced well by the impeccably-cooked al dente rigatoni. Add to that the garlic, cream, sausage and herbs in this dish and you've got a winner. I highly recommend this rigatoni, of the 3 rigatoni entrees on Mamma Roma's menu. I haven't even tried the other rigatoni dishes, but still ... don't miss this creamy, garlicky hummus dinner. And the portions of rigatoni in this dish were very generous. The presentation of the lasagna was impressive, in layering and shape. I only had a bite. It had a nice flavor, but I would have needed more bites to give a better description. And since it wasn't my order, I could not indulge. The portion was generous. Also, I would never order lasagna from any restaurant given the reasons cited earlier, but this one was good. I hope someone is laughing because anyone who has grown up in a subcultural group in the US usually sounds exactly like me about the home-cooking they grew up on. Another of Mamma Roma's menu items I'd like to try is their corn and arugula white pizza. I've only found one lovely corn pizza ever at Zelo's in an LA suburb, so now that I have seen this on their menu my curiosity is piqued. Love love love the variety of the dessert menu options. It's not just the desserts in the case on display that you can order. While there are gorgeous cookies on display, the dessert menu has a long, lovely list of all kinds of variations of cheesecakes and cakes. I would like to try the lemon cake on a return visit. And more of the cookie flavors! When I asked the barista what the top desserts were, he was quick to name the cannoli as a first. You'd probably be surprised to find out that this is a counter service approach: you order and pay up at the front and the waiter brings you your food and whatever else you need. You get your own fountain drinks or tea with ice. You can tip in advance, in good faith, when you order in the beginning or you can leave cash on the table at the end of the meal, having already paid your bill in the beginning. There is also the charming dessert counter/bar and espresso area that I mentioned earlier. So, when you are finished with your lunch or dinner, you can go to the barista's counter and order dessert and cappuccino. I love that if you order cake or a cannoli, a cappuccino is only $2. This is an awesome value especially for the evening crowd. For old school Anne Arundel county and Annapolis locals, Mamma Roma's is better than the original Squisito's pizza -- and higher in quality -- but it is a bit reminiscent of that restaurant in terms of popularity and a family feel. Plus, I have never tried the pizza here, but I'm guessing it's good given the quality of the ingredients and preparations we experienced with the pasta dishes. One thing that also really stands out about Mamma Roma's is that they are the only Italian restaurant that is nestled back in the suburban Piney Orchard division of Gambrills. In other words, it's more neighborly there vs. other restaurants along the majorly-trafficked Route 3 corridor. The restaurants along Route 3 have many more transients coming in, given the ease of access, so they are naturally less neighborly. Finally, when we brought our leftovers from dinner home I set them on the kitchen table and left them for a bit. When I came back into our kitchen, it was filled with such delicious aromas! Friends, this is just how fresh the food at Mamma Roma's is. For a casual, counter service suburban, it is quite bellissima!

Gianni's Pizza in Severn absolutely ruined other pizza for me--in the best possible way. I walked…read morein expecting "good for a strip-mall spot" and walked out low‑key mad that I've wasted this many years on chain pizza. The crust is where it all starts: that thin New York style with just enough flop to prove it's legit, but a crisp bite at the edge that actually fights back a little. The sauce tastes bright and fresh, not sugary, and the cheese hits that perfect zone where it stretches, melts, and doesn't drown the slice in grease. Throw on pepperoni or sausage and it's game over. The vibe is classic neighborhood joint--nothing fancy, just people who clearly care about what's coming out of the oven. The crew is friendly, quick, and they've somehow never once messed up my order, even when I'm being extra about toppings. If you're anywhere near Severn and still defaulting to Pizza Hut or Domino's, I genuinely feel bad for you. Gianni's is the kind of place you recommend to friends "with your whole chest" and then feel weirdly proud when they text you mid-slice saying, "Okay, you were right." 8.9 on the Dave Portnoy's scale for me. The highest I have given outside of NYC

Unfamiliar with the area, I jumped on yelp and found The Farmhouse with its 4.4 star rating. So there we went. The Waugh Chapel area is a giant shopping center. Wegmans, Old Navy, Verizon, etc. The Farmhouse is in a new building near the man road. Their whole thing is farm to fork, with some herbs and greens grown on site and others sourced locally. The service is great! Fast and friendly. Instead of bread or rolls, they warm you up with some country style homemade cornbread. Freshly baked, cast iron skillet, with butter and syrup. Yum! We had the meatloaf and the chicken and chicken and biscuits. The meatloaf was tasty, with homemade mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked fresh green beans. The chicken and biscuits is kind of like a chicken pot pie without the crust. The biscuits are on top so you can decide how much bread you want. The vegetables are nice and fresh, and the chicken is perfect white meat. A++ on both entrees. For dessert we had half-baked, which is an ooey gooey cookie and a brownie in a cast iron skillet topped with ice cream. We liked it, but next time I'll probably have just ice cream because the ice cream was absolutely perfect. Where are you? Stevensville? Baltimore? Solomon's? Alexandria? DC? You should make the drive to Waugh Chapel Station and get some fresh, delicious, better- than-home-cooked food.

When we arrived, our table appeared to be ready right at our reservation time, but we still had to wait to be seated. It wasn't a long delay, but it was a bit confusing and felt like a service issue. The ambience is beautiful and well done, and the bathrooms were clean. The food itself was solid across the board, and the chicken and biscuit was actually even better the next day as leftovers. Unfortunately, the service was the biggest drawback. Refills only happened when we asked, and splitting checks for a large group was more difficult than expected. At one point when a correction was needed, a member of our party noticed the server visibly rolling her eyes, which didn't help the experience. Drinks are also served by the can rather than fountain style, which made them feel overpriced without refills. For a place that presents as upscale, the experience shouldn't feel nickel-and-dimed. Overall, nice atmosphere and good food, but the service needs improvement before I'd consider returning.

Overall the pizza was pretty tasty but the wings left much to be desired.

We seem to have a knack for finding a decent place on our way out of town.

Well, fast forward to 2025. We are getting ready to move back to IL in June. We went to 3 Brother's (5 miles away from our house) today. It came up in a search for "fish sandwiches". Indeed they have one on the special menu, but being suspicious of haddock, neither of us got one. I'm not saying that haddock are a particularly dodgy animal, I just have never found it to be quite as tasty as the rest of the fish eating world seems to think it is. My wife got a turkey club sub and fries, I got an Italian combination sub and onion rings. We were both satisfied with our order. The fries were very good, but she did have onion ring envy. They were quite good, they were real, and the onion was tender enough that you could bite it without pulling out the whole onion. That, pulling out the onion, is about the most disappointing food happening you can imagine. She was impressed with the bacon in her sub, it was real, actual cooked bacon, crisp and complimented the sandwich. My Italian was well balanced, a little ham heavy, but satisfying and well dressed. Minor nitpick "complaints". The rolls are quite fluffy, so the overall fit of the sandwich for a bite is a bit challenging. [a first world problem, I get it]. The meats on both of our subs were a bit too cold. A 30 second microwave zap wouldn't be a bad kitchen confidential trick to add to their prep. The service was fine, we ordered at the counter and sat and talked for a bit, enjoyed each others company. We propably don't do that often enough. We tend to eat our meals in our separate chairs in the living room, in front of TV or a phone in the hand. Perhaps in our golden years we will sit across from each other a bit more often. I hope so. We will certainly make an effort to come back to 3 Brothers at least once more before we leave Maryland. I read a bunch of the lower rated reviews, and I guess those kinds of people find something wrong with everything they experience.

In my view, this should be piquant and bright; this was just... meh. Overall, bland and would never order again. The stromboli seemed OK but it wasn't what was ordered - completely wrong filling. Reiterating: their pizza is quite good, but it seems they should stick to that and not try to do everything.
