• Price: $$
• Address: 185 Ballston Avenue, Saratoga Springs
• Top review: "We just returned from Mama Mia's and all agreed it was great. Having recently moved to the area we have driven by a few times and each time we say 'we should try that place.' From the outside it looks like a strip mall pizza place. Inside is very different! The place is far bigger/deeper than you initially think it is. There is a front room and side/back room. Big bar with many tables to accommodate big parties but it's setup with individual tables with nice table cloths, Italian music playing, and cloth napkins. Before we were even seated, our water glasses were being filled and we were asked if we wanted bread. Oil is already in the table which was nice. When asked, Amy, our great waitress, suggested a few of her favorites. I went with eggplant rollatini with rigatoni and side salad, my husband with the fettuccine with shrimp and portabella mushrooms and a side salad and my mom with pasta fagioli. All three of us found our meals delicious! While we had no business ordering desserts we did try the cheesecake cone, chocolate layer cake and lemon pie. Again, delicious! Homemade bread, homemade pasta, personable waitress with great service and a warm environment made Mama Mia's our new favorite restaurant." -- Lynn L.
