We ordered a very good bottle of wine. Our waitress was top notch with great named Danielle. The place is very romantic for a date night. It was freezing when we got in but we were fine after a few minutes.

My husband and I visited Mamasamas for the first time last night for my birthday dinner and BOY…read morewere we impressed! We both agreed that the meal we shared was easily the best Italian food in Jacksonville. For starters, the amount of charm and elegance the owners were able to achieve in a strip mall of all places is impressive. Our reservation was for inside, but we would love to sit under their patio/canopy as the weather starts to cool down! The restaurant itself is on the smaller side, but gorgeous nonetheless. Our server, Alana, was AMAZING!! She gave us complimentary champagne to celebrate my birthday dinner and put a candle in our dessert. She was very personable and gave us recommendations on each course upon request. Our drinks were never empty and there was not a single lull waiting for her to come back over. If you decide to go, ask for her! Now, the FOOD! For apps, we ordered the meatballs (Alana's recommendation) and the burrata (a must order for us at any Italian restaurant). The meatballs were full of flavor and tender but not mushy. I could drink the sauce if I'm being honest. The burrata was delicious with the bread and marinated tomato/onion mixture. Would recommend both of these to anyone! For our mains, I ordered the gnocchi arrabbiatta and my hubby ordered the pappardelle boscaiola with added ragu beef. Both were DELICIOUS! My gnocchi had a little bit of a kick, but nothing too overpowering. The beef in my husband's pasta was extremely tender and flavorful. Finally, for our dessert, we ordered the budino based on Alana's recommendation and it was AMAZING. Probably my favorite part of the meal. All in all, we had a 10/10 experience and will absolutely be back!

My mom and came yesterday Tuesday afternoon for lunch a little after 12pm there was only one other table seated. So we got one of the nice booths. We were almost immediately asked what drinks we would like. Ice water and hot tea for my mom. My mom asked what the specials were and they brought them to us on the dinner menu while the fresh fish entree and zucchini parmigiana sounded good. I decided on the tonna salad (fresh ahi tuna) with a ginger dressing. So delicious and fresh and excellent quality tuna with a side of sautéed spinach. My mom ordered the eggplant parmigiana. We were brought the sourdough bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. So tasty and fresh. We both liked our entrees. I tried my mom's eggplant parmigiana and it was really fresh and wasn't heavily breaded and i prefer less breading. It came with sautéed vegetables and a fried mashed potato croquette. The portions were large so we had leftovers to take home. Service was prompt and friendly the whole time and I appreciated that. I look forward to coming back with my mom.

If you enjoy cold food, miniature portions, and the rudest of management this is your place!…read more Buckle up this is a long one!!! and this is the first time I've EVER written a review in my entire life! I've been in the service industry for years... I cannot even express the disappointment I experienced at this restaurant. Every single person told me that I would "love this place" . However, trying to celebrate my father's birthday could not have be more of an opposite experience. 3 out of 4 ordered fettuccine alfredo with shrimp, a simple Italian classic ! The waiter returned notified us that the kitchen was out of fettuccine! It was only 6:30pm on a Sunday. 2 change entree to angel hair pasta, one changed to one of the listed specials. When the server returns the remade entree it looked like children portions! Unbelievable . We then asked to speak to a manager, Phyllis has to be the most incompetent " Manager on duty" I have ever met in my entire existence!!! She told the guest that the portions were normal even if it was Angel hair vs Fettuccine... She then asked "what do you expect me to do?" my father said, please just add more angel hair pasta. She said "they couldn't do that because this was the correct size. " Please keep in mind, my Father has been here multiple times before.This why he wanted to celebrate his birthday at this restaurant. He suggested this was not the correct portion size he's been there before could she please correct it. Phyllis got argumentative! She said "the kitchen could make a new entrée or that we could eat what what they had in front of them.!!! "(excuse me what?!?) they chose to order two new entrées. Unfortunately, with the debacle of the 3 entree issues my mother's entree must have sat in the "window " and was served COLD!! We asked Phyllis to come back, and she's said "There's nothing i can do ! " at this point, my father began to get very frustrated and ask then "why are you even the manager? What is exactly your role?" i've never been to a restaurant, where a manager cannot assist the customer, or address the kitchen, or assist in any way. She tried to come back later and ask if the entrées were OK. Unfortunately, they still weren't. The potato croquet and a few other items on the plate were served Cold., the situation kept getting from bad to worse. When he shared the information, she shrugged her shoulders. My father just said "thanks for ruining my birthday." Phyllis, then argued how did she ruin her his birthday? She had nothing to do with the problems that occur occurred. She actually argued with a guest.!!! never in my life have I seen such a thing!! AND the bill was FULL price! we paid in full and left. On a sidenote, the server was Really sweet, and tried to work the entire situation. Best he could. I'm sorry, Nicholas, you were put in the middle of a very difficult situation! I know you tried your best!

We started with the arincini and it was amazing! The goat cheese made it spectacular and the marinara is really amazing. I have always wanted to try the pear fiocchi because everyone raves about it and it is their best seller. But...I was not impressed. The servers seemed to know it needed help. Our server offered me crushed pepper and another server stopped by and offered chili oil and peppers. I got the sense they knew I didn't like it and it needed some flavor. But it was too sweet. Even though it is pear pasta, I assumed the added cheeses and sauce would balance out the flavor but it was way too sweet. Luckily they took it off the ticket and I was able to share lasagne with my husband and that was amazing. Just beware that if you order multiple things, make sure you get different sauces because if jt has red sauce, it will all taste the same. Vary up your flavors. Also we got the chocolate cake and my kids left half the cake on the table. They never leave cake behind. I will also add that my daughter got the child size Sunday Suppa with pink sauce and a meatball and she LOVED it. I am glad we went and explored the menu, but I am literally sad the pear pasta was not as amazing as I had hoped it would be!

Tina took our order and was super cheerful. After checking out their lunch menu, I opted to get their alla di pollo pizza, which is their grilled chicken wing pizza with caramelized onions. The lunch portion is about a 10 inch pizza, which is a perfect size. I also ordered a diet Coke. Their pizzas only take about 90 seconds to cook once they've been put in the oven, which is super quick. After grabbing some utensils and my soda, our pizzas came out in no time. The crust was perfectly crisp and the chicken was moist, and the onions were sweet. I asked for a side of cesar, so I could dip my crust in it. They make an awesome cesar dressing. I even had enough pizza left for leftovers the next day.
