Second worst pizza I've ever had – We went to Mama Santa's because so many people in CLE seem to think it's "the" place for Italian/pizza. I can't imagine ever going back. 1. Service was incredibly slow although they weren't busy. However, we weren't in a hurry and just relaxed and enjoyed a beer while we waited. No problem so far. 2. The salad with house dressing was a small amount of iceberg lettuce with very little else on it. The dressing tasted bottled and bland. Not impressed yet, but we came for the pizza, so no probl... read more

Poor Customer Service – Although known for their relatively inexpensive prices, Mama Santa's is not the place to go if you are use to decent customer service. I have gone to Mama Santa's on several different occasions, and the sevice is consistently poor. First of all, Little Italy doesn't quite accomodate those who drive, thus parking is always a hassle. Second, expect to wait a long time to be seated, which is especially true on Friday or Saturday nights. When you finally get seated, it might take a while for the server to... read more

Browns or Steelers, Yankees or Red Sox, Mama Santa or Valentino's....it's one or the other! – Like the title suggests, people seem to love one or the other of these rival pizza shops in the Little Italy neighborhood. For me, Mama Santa is the winner...hands down!!! I have tried Valentino's a few times and found it to be drastically overpriced considering it tastes like frozen pizza. If you like the bland, flat, stone oven type of pizza, you may be happy. I'll eat anything and I LOVE pizza, but Mama Santa's sauce makes this a... read more

Worst Italian Meal We've Ever! Had TV Dinners Better Than This! – Mama Santa's is a prefect example of why you can't believe everything you read! It was the worst Italian food we have ever tasted! We LOVE good Italian food & we're not some picky yuppie couple that only eats in 5 star restaurants. We've eaten some great food at places many would consider a dive. And we take these reviews seriously. When the food & service is good we say so & do same when its bad. When planning a trip to Cleveland we saw a chance to enjoy some... read more

I found a pizza jewel in the Cleveland – Thank you to the fans of Mama Santa's...This visitor was craving good pizza...Got on the internet, found reviews of this place...Found the place after taking a couple of wrong turns, got lucky and got a parking space in back...Walked in and proceded to "eat silly"...I do love pizza, I was so tempted to order an Extra Large Pizza, and then take 3 more back to hotel...The crust, sauce and the service was phenomenal...If business takes me back to Cleveland, I will be back to Mama Santa's... read more

Yummy! – Mama Santa's is, by far, my favorite restaurant. When I read the negative reviews I just don't understand. It's true italian food and it's a great value too. I don't get down to Little Italy very often, but when I do you can bet you'll find me at Mama Santa's!

Loved it – Went to Mama's for our daugthers fourth birthday lunch on a Saturday. We were seated right away and had wonderful service and great food. Ordered pizza (awesome), spaghetti (great sauce) and chicken cacciatore (touch dry on the white meat, but great flavor overall). GREAT place for kids. Would recommend to anyone with kids. Now I know why they are rated best pizza in town. Try for yourself!

Avoid, Avoid, Avoid!!! – I live in Little Italy and you could not pay me to eat at Mama Santa's! The service is beyond lousy. Once I ordered a salad, and for a little flavor, they threw in an ant. Yum! Of course the miserable people that they are, they did not even offer to take it off the bill. The pizza is so loaded with grease, I always get diarehha after I eat it. Finally, I tried the pasta there. I threw up after I got home. The sauce was burned and I think the sausage was undercooked. When I walk by Mama Santa's, I alw... read more
