About this business
Italian food is well-loved by all, but who serves the best authentic Italian fare? Mama Ricotta's is one strong contender for this coveted honor. The Italian soul believes in hearty meals and lavish spreads of well seasoned and mouth-watering food. Mama Ricotta certainly seems to achieve that. This eatery is a quaint little place which serves up the most genuine of Italian food. The food is created out of made-from-scratch mozzarella cheese, fresh seasonal veggies and soft breads. Drinks, to go with the food are also stocked... read more

Great Modern Take on Italian – This Place has excellent classic dishes, that you will enjoy. Lasagna, Penna ala Vodka, Chicken Parm, Pizza, Calamari. Or try something new like butternut squash ravioali or Mamma Rigot's take on Cheese Dip appetizer... There is NOTHING BAD on the menu..... Go and Eat... Manja,... Enjoy!!!

Best Service – I ate at Mama Ricotta's for the first time yesterday and i definately will eat there again. Aside from the well priced and delicious food we had, the main ingredient that I remember the most was the staff. The hostess Dana was so pleasant and inviting I was already smiling as soon as she greeted me. I was waiting at the bar for the rest of my party to arrive and Kate, the bartender, was so helpful in recommending items from the menu that were a favorite of some of the regulars. I assume based on my experience ... read more
What happened? – I used to ADORE Mama Ricotta's... tried and true, I've sent a million people to this place and even referred my cousin to have wedding rehearsal dinner there. That being said - I was EXTREMELY disappointed with a brunch experience. Went in - all excited with my fiance, that we were going to have mama ricotta's brunch - everything else there is scrumptious, therefore, the brunch should be to-die for. Uh.... not-so-much. My fiance absolutely hates runny eggs - so he asked for the italian hash special with SCRA... read more

Best italian food in NC, Avoid Friday/Sat nights, Service was spot on – My wife and me have been loyal customers at Mama's for over 3 years now. It takes us 30 min. to get there from our house and well worth the drive. The food at this place is spot on everytime. I ordered the chicken bianco which was to die for, (a favorite of mine,) and my wife stayed close in on her limb and ordered the penne vodka. The food was fabulous as always. the atmosphere was very family oriented and appropriate, JUST DON'T GO HERE ON WEEKENDS, fo... read more
Poor customer service – Waited 40 minutes to receive their famous goat cheese dip which only takes 3 minutes to prepare asked the waiter 4 times whether or not our appitizer was coming and everytime he said a coulple of minutes after 40 minutes the waiter said that the owner was working on our order and it would be right out. 5 minutes later the owner brings the food to the table and just sets it down and walks away NO SORRY FOR THE WAIT OR COULD I GET YOU ANYTHING ELSE!!!! USED to be one of my favorite places to come to but... read more
Business response:
Dear pizzajudge7, I am really unhappy to hear that you had such a bad experience in my restaurant. Since you have been coming for a long time, I am sure that you know that we don't treat customers that poorly. The server must not have made me aware of the situation. I wish that you would have said something to me during your visit to make me aware of just how unhappy you were. Please call me at the restaurant so that I may obtain more information. Sorry about your experience while dining with us.
Couldn?t disagree more from holly234?s post – What a wonderful menu and staff! My wife and I started with two Mamatinis. Now I?ve had pineapple-infused martinis before but these were different. Made with orange and mango vodka, they were a real treat. We decided to have some wine with dinner so our server, Derrick, made some suggestions, which we were very pleased with. For our entrees my wife enjoyed the Spiedini salad while I had the Lasagna. The homemade sausage is what really makes the lasagna special. One of the manager... read more
great staff, manager, not so much – My girlfriend and I were there recently for a quick bite. All of the staff was very friendly and professional. The food was good, especially the pizza. Unfortunately the manager running around the restaurant yelling at the staff with his French-accented expletives made us very uncomfortable. Listening to him curse and insult his employees will make us think twice about returning!
Business response:
Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry to hear that you will think twice about returning. Our manager feels terrible about this and would like to speak to you personally. Please email your contact information to him at pdenetre@cantina1511restaurant.com.
Great place to go before a show – We have been here many times, especially before going to a show downtown. The food is very good and plentiful. We also like the wine flights. The bread is especially good (resist the urge to eat too much because the meal is going to be great and plentiful). We enjoy the casual elegance, both inside and on the patio.
Business response:
Thank you for your feedback and glad to see you had an enjoyable experience. We are a from scratch kitchen with the "bread" being made fresh daily and the mozzarella never older than an hour and a half. Please visit us again soon and try to save room for the Tiramisu. Regards, Frank Scibelli fscibelli@mamaricottasrestaurant.com
