We gave this place a try while in Cranston. I was actually surprised at how tiny it is considering I've been to Spike's Junk Yard Dogs when it was in this location years ago. Needless to say, they don't need the space to make some excellent pizza. We shared a few different slices. My favorite was the Detroit style with the pepperoni, hot honey, and seasoned mozzarella! We got a slice that we didn't order, as a girl misheard us, but it ended up being a very good slice of Detroit. It had orange chicken on it. I had never had anything like that, but it was absolutely delicious! The Florentine with the tomatoes was delicious. The sauce that's used on the pizza is so good and all the crust were cooked perfectly. Even my wife, who doesn't like Detroit style Pizza said that the flavor of the dough was different than the other ones I've had her try at other places around Rhode Island in Massachusetts. I'm in need of Rhode Islander so I did buy a bag of the pizza chips and I absolutely love them. You have to like bakery pizza that I like these. The girls at the register were absolutely amazing and more friendly than most pizza places I've been in recently. They even joked with us when we sat and ate, which we really appreciated it. I love the decor of the chandeliers, it had such a nice touch. The only thing that I didn't love was how loud the music was. We couldn't hear each other across the small table, but that subjective anyway. If I'm around Cranston, I will definitely go back here and I would recommend that everyone else gives it a try. read more

As a RHORI fan, I knew I had to stop by this spot. I love that they offer a huge selection of different styles of pizzas. You are able to get a pie or order by the slice. Up to you if you want to dine-in or takeout. It's right next door to a high school so there were a lot of teens when I visited. It's an intimate space with a few booths if you want to dine-in. They have a gender neutral single stall bathroom in the space. It's located in a strip mall so there is a lot of free parking out front. I enjoyed the motor city roni slice. The staff was really friendly too. It was a fun stop. read more

Ordered the crispy Brussels, garlic knots, pizza snacks, chicken avocado grinder, and chicken vodka grinder. Besides the Brussels being very spicy, almost unbearable, the food was delicious. My favorite were the pizza snacks that I got last minute on the counter. Didn't think much of it when I saw it but I was tasty and reminded me of an elevated cracker. We called ahead for pick up and the food was ready when we arrived. The cashier was welcoming and attentive. The restaurant doesn't have a lot of seating in side but def a nice spot for a quick lunch or pick up. Decor is super cute, glad I was able to stop by. read more

In honor of Alicia from RHORI (we love her!) and also their reunion episode day, my family and I decided to check out the locally famous Pizza Mamma. We ordered the Detroit style Cheese Pizza and the Motor City Roni to see what all the hype was about, and they definitely did not disappoint. The pizzas were flavorful with a great crust, though I personally would have enjoyed a little more sauce. Considering the price, I also felt the portions could have been slightly larger. The Motor City Roni comes with a hot honey drizzle, but I didn't notice much of the flavor coming through on the pizza. I placed my order online, and when I arrived, the staff was friendly and had everything ready to go, making the pickup process quick and easy. If you're in the Cranston, RI area, I would recommend giving this place a try. It has a stylish, trendy atmosphere and serves up some very solid Detroit style pizza. read more

We just moved to RI and had to try this place out after watching RHORI and Alicia. We got the NY style large size Bruno. It was very tasty as an overall delicious pizza. The pizza chips were decent, nothing special. We would order again. The location is a little tricky to navigate parking and getting into the lot. read more

My friend ordered delivery here thru an app- we got a large hot honey NY style pizza. I absolutely loved everything about this pizza! I drive by this place all the time but have never been inside... glad my friend decided to treat me! I look forward to trying their other style of pizza- would definitely recommend although I have never been inside of the actual restaurant... delivery (from a 3rd party app- Uber Eats) was superb! read more

I did come after seeing it on TV, but didn't have any expectations, wanted to judge it solely off the experience. Staff was friendly upon arrival, super cute inside. Lots of slices to choose from, detroit style or sicilian so you could get the best of both worlds depending on cravings. I got a slice of cheese sicilian style and mommas vodka with mango chicken detroit style. They heated them up for me. My boyfriend got all detroit style, of pepperoni and ricotta. It took just a few minutes to be warmed which was good. Flavors were tasty but pizza was hard and got cold quick, you could tell it wasn't fresh fresh. Maybe a whole pie is better but sadly I wasn't impressed. Lots of people were taking to go orders so it is a popular spot, but like other reviews it wasn't anything to write home about. Probably like a 6/10 for the slices if I'm being honest. read more

I recently picked up pizza from here and thought this spot's interior was super cute. I loved the light up marquee letters. Arrived a few minutes early for pickup and our pizzas were ready to go.

Picked up some pizza chips on our way down to Newport Monday. Opened them today to discover they were moldy. When I called to let them know. I was told that they were made made on Sunday w/ a 3 day shelf life. I (mistakenly) assumed they were made fresh daily. Lesson learned. Won't be returning based on that and the managers justification for selling subpar food read more

Went to see Pizza Mama because of the show. It was a smaller space than we thought, but overall we would go back! The staff were friendly and attentive. We got the margarita and white pizza. They have several types of pizza, including my favorite which are large slices with a thinner crust. The margarita was my favorite! Overall, it was cute. It was cute to see Alicia's glamorous touches in the restaurant read more

2.5 stars I guess if a business is trying to be good at 3 styles of pizza 5 stars is a stretch goal. The New York slices were very good, a little thicker than the hand toss places in RI, more like NY. 4 stars for the NY slices Sicilian were cooked to perfection, not doughy, no gumline, just the crust really did have any taste to it. Felt rush at the registered, order 5 slices, wanted to sign up for the reward program but the girl pushed the order through a little fast. No receipt offered, and no offer of the punch cards. All the slices were double stacked and cramped into one small pizza box. The slices were barely reheated, cold to touch, the girls were happy to reheated everything and were pleasant Slices are $4+ each, so these should be served at the correct temperature. And not double stacked in the same box. Will be back to try the Detroit style. read more

I was looking forward to trying Pizza Mamma and unfortunately it's a once and done. The picture is of their Hot Honey pizza and...where's the ricotta? I also added mushrooms and there weren't too many on it. It might have been an off night for them but I can't spend the $$$ if they're going to forget ingredients. Side Note: There's such a disparity in ratings between Google Reviews (4.4) and Yelp (3.0). The rating is definitely closer to the 3. read more

My wife and I have been trying to find time to check this place out for a while. Today was the day where everything aligned right for us to finally give it a try. Walking in, you immediately get hit with that fresh dough aroma. Then you see the lineup of slices available. My wife immediately found her slice, a white slice in the New York style. There were several I was eyeballing, and then I saw one in the end that looked really good. It's the Nashville Hot Detroit Style Pizza. As soon as I heard the description, I knew that was my slice. I also ordered a chicken cutlet grinder, which is one of my pizza place standards. That Nashville Hot Detroit slice could quite possibly be one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. Absolutely delicious! The dark edges. The fresh dough. The sauces on top. Absolute perfection. One of the best slices of pizza I have ever had. I felt compelled to tell every patron that walked in and asked what that flavor was that "you need to order that slice stat!!" My wife enjoyed her slice as well. I had a bite and the bottom was nice and crisp, and the slice itself was super flavorful with garlic and Parmesan being the key players. Another great slice! The chicken cutlet came out after a few minutes and was on a super fresh, toasted bun. This sandwich was delicious as well! Just lettuce, provolone and mayo, but excellent nonetheless. The fries that come with the sandwich were very good as well. Staff were friendly, service was quick. You couldn't ask for a better experience. I am so excited that we finally got in this place and it was this good. I cannot believe we waited this long to come by, but it will be a very quick return. Trust that. "Honey, I know we just had it for lunch, but do you want some Pizza Mamma for dinner?" read more

100/10 experience. The white pizza is outstanding and service was incredibly quick. From the moment you walk in you're greeted with a friendly, smiling face behind the counter, beautiful chandeliers and decor,and attentive, thoughtful service. Would recommend to anyone looking for a fun, easy dinner that's guaranteed to have you reheating your leftover slices (if you have any left)! P.S.: Don't miss out on the pizza chips!! read more

Great Detroit slices and full pizza inside this unassuming strip mall pizza joint. Not usually a fan of deep dish style pizza, but their tart crust carmelized with saucy, cheesy edges changed my mind. Counter service is always friendly. Just a few spots at high top tables if you want to enjoy it hot and fresh. read more

Ok so what's there to say about this pizza... 1st momma may know best but definitely not about pizza! I ordered the NY style for pick up, got half veggies and ricotta and half mozzarella. The sauce was bland bland bland and the crust just as bland and soggy in the middle. The sign and lights are a coverup for the dark and sad looking pizza you get in the box. Will not order again, sorry mamma! read more

Came here recently for slices. I'm picky for pizza.. This place hit the marks. They have a great variety of slices- this is a key point- you don't know if they'll have a full assortment when you go. You might hit the lottery and get there when a Detroit pizza comes out and you can get a slice. It goes fast. People who are eating in see those come out and all go back to the counter to buy it up. That said, the Detroit and Sicilian are 100% worth coming here for. For NY, there are a few other shops in the state I'd prefer. This one was a little on the sad side. Not crisp at all. They barely heat it up for you. They should be firing them back up in the oven to get them piping hot so the cheese remelts and it gets some nice color on the undercarriage. It's not a fantastic atmosphere, not very roomy. It's an unorganized system to order slices and then pay. They have some kinks to work out on the process of ordering and paying. That said, it's a tight space and maybe they're doing what they can. I'd absolutely come back for Sicilian and detroit. Slices ranged from $4-5.50. Got full for like $13 so can't complain. Solid job Pizza Mamma. read more

Pizza Mamma - 4 "cold" slices of Detroit style! - Salad Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

This spot has had a bit of a rough history--three businesses in six years--so I wasn't sure what to expect going in. I had read mixed reviews about the pizza, with some saying it really depends on the day, but I decided to give it a shot. I ordered the Sicilian-style/Detroit-style pizzas: the Motor City Roni and the Spicy Vodka Baller. Both were crisp, flavorful, and definitely hit the mark. Great texture, solid flavor combos--they were a win. If they can keep that consistency, the pizza itself could be a strong draw. The line to order moved quickly, and the person who took my order was sweet and helpful, which made for a good start. However, that experience was undercut a bit when I went to pay. The person at the register seemed kind of checked out. As I stepped up, she walked off to look at takeout orders. At first, I thought maybe she hadn't seen me, but then she came back, looked at the ready orders, glanced around for waiting customers--still no acknowledgment that I was standing right in front of her. After an awkward pause, I finally said, "I want to pay and take my pizza," and even then, there was no apology, no receipt offered, not even a thank you. That little interaction felt unnecessarily drawn out and left a bad impression. One plus: there's plenty of parking, which is a big bonus for the area and makes it easy to swing by without stress. Overall, the Detroit-style pizza gets a solid 5/5. The food was legit. But the customer service definitely needs work--just some basic attentiveness and courtesy would go a long way in making the whole experience feel better-rounded. read more

4th time here and it I guess the theme today was Taco Night because they had a variety of pizzas featuring things you'd find in tacos/nachos. Spicy chicken with rice, beans, peppers and sour cream was pretty good even though the chicken pieces would fall off during some bites. The white slice was good. Just could've used a little bit more ricotta on my slice. Overall, I enjoyed both. Pizza Mamma never disappoints. read more

While out and about in the Providence area, I decided to check out a local favorite pizza spot called Pizza Mamma. Being from the greater Metro Detroit area, I have a high standard and a love for the Detroit style pizza that has been ingrained since childhood. Pizza Mama delivered a solid and tasty effort, but not without some issues. The Pizza was supposed to come with extra pepperoni, and while topping amount is subjective, this didn't really seem to have it. The amount is pretty standard for what you would get anywhere just ordering one topping. Also, the cheese used was minimal. If you've had good Detroit style, I would estimate their pizza to be about 1/2 the cheese you'd normally have on this style of pie. In the future I'd order extra cheese here, but then the diner is incurring additional costs on an already novelty priced pizza. Those criticisms aside, it was a tasty pizza that didn't entirely disappoint. It just didn't quite hit that top notch Detroit pizza experience either, and there's a lot better out there. I will say though, they do have some delicious homemade cookies. read more

The pizza is so meh. No flavor regardless of which one you try. Their ranch on the chicken bacon ranch is weird AF. If you want good NY style pizza just drive down the road to Napolitano's. read more

The place was small but cute, the Chandeliers is a weird flex since there small and a Lil tacky. The service was good but nothing to write home about, the food was mixed but mostly positive. The hot honey chicken pizza was absolutely delicious, nice crunchy cheese crust and fluffy airy dough. The chicken bacon ranch grinder was really good too and the fries a little greasy and not seasoned enough but still good. The meatballs were a little dry, but the tomato sauce was excellent and not too acidic, there should of been a bit pesto sauce I felt like order had barely any, the garlic bread that was served with my meatballs was the one thing that was appalling, it was hard as a rock, stale and flavorless and ruined my meatballs experience. read more

This place is still "new," and the sign is pretty, so I decided to give it a shot. First observation was that I like that they have indoor and outdoor seating. They have their pizza on display and sell by the slice or whole pies as well. They have New York, Sicilian, and Detroit style pizza and once you order, they do heat it up. I ordered a slice of Detroit style pepperoni and honey as well as detriot style chicken and ranch. My friend and I were going to try both and share so they were nice to cut it in half for them. I did not realize the pepperoni had a drizzle of honey so it was a sweet surprise (pun intended). The flavor was good but it was a tiny bit overly crunchy. I wish the ricotta flavor stood out more. Same with the chicken and ranch one. I would be open to trying a different style since it was tasty and they have a good selection of toppings. read more

The Vodka Sauce pizza was delicious! The place is smaller than expected, definitely more of a takeout type place. The server was nice

Been here 4 times and the Pizza here is great! Pizza is nice and crunchy. They have a ton of creative options. I feel like they need a few more vegetarian options but no real complaints. One thing I would do less is adding bacon to everything. The server told my partner about a slice but didn't mention bacon and when we got home he couldn't eat it. The space itself is small but pretty well designed. read more

Pizza Mamma - Left: White slice Right: Mac & Cheese slice - Salad Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

My first visit I absolutely loved my pizza. This time around it was just ok. I had their Sicilian by the slice on my first visit and heated it at home and thought it was delicious. This time I tried a Detroit and traditional slice. Neither of which really blue me away. I had them heat at the store and admittedly waited a bit longer than I should have to enjoy but neither piece tasted as fresh as my first visit. The flavor on the Detroit style was good but the traditional style which I got with spinach tomato and feta was a bit bland. The feta itself was hard and the slice was super flimsy making it hard to eat. Overall it was ok and I would be curious to try ordering a whole pie, but I can't say I'll be running back for a slice in the near future. read more

Came here to support Alicia and left with my expectations having been exceeded! Very friendly staff and unique offering of slices for a very fair price! I never had Detroit Style pizza before.

If I'm ever back in RI, this will be my first stop no questions asked. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

The best pizza I've ever had. Full stop. Pizza Mama's Detroit-style Hot Honey Pepperoni Ricotta pizza is on another level. The crust is thick, crispy-edged perfection. The pepperoni curls just right, the ricotta is creamy and rich, and that drizzle of hot honey? Game changer. Every bite hits that sweet-savory-spicy balance like it was designed by a pizza genius. I've eaten a lot of pizza in a lot of places, and nothing compares. This is the kind of slice you think about days later and immediately start planning your next visit. If you know, you know. And if you don't--go fix that. read more

Stopped in to get a slice on my way home and was very disappointed. Sauce has no flavor and greasy. We tried the Sicilian and regular cheese. Nothing to rave about.
