Mamma Mia’s Trattoria (Lake Worth)
***** Mamma Mia’s Trattoria, 8855 Hypoluxo Road, Lake Worth, Florida 33467 (561) 963-9565.
There are literally tons of joints named Mamma Mia’s dotting the South Florida landscape. Just so you know, we are talking about Mamma Mia’s Trattoria which is located in LAKE WORTH.
Let me start by saying that…this “RED SAUCE-ITALIAN” joint is excellent. Unlike most of its neighborhood brethern, Mamma Mia’s is beautifully decorated in “stone-walls/mahogany tables. I don’t know about you.. but I am tired of walking into “mom & pop” joints and seeing booths enclosed in trelises. Anyway, Mamma’s decor is great looking, but tee shirts and shorts are just fine. By the way, the joint has an absolutely “huge” out-door patio…so if you like eating outside (that figures) you are covered.
Mamma’s menu is loaded with appetizers, soups, salads, subs, pastas, brick oven pizzas and meat/seafood/chicken entrees. The prices are neighborhood joint prices and the service is solid.
Now let’s talk food…delicious. A “taste test” of baked clams oreganatte, chicken sorrentino, chicken scarpiello (on the bone), veal marsala, eggplant parmigiana, gnocchi, meat lasagna and frutti di mare…tells me, that I definitely want to eat here again.
For those of you who live in Mamma’s neighborhood…you got a real winner for eat-in/take-out.
Mamma Mia’s is open 7-days a week for lunch and dinner.
Very good recommendation. Dinner tonight for four. Good food. Good service. Good prices. Beautiful yet casual restaurant.
Jeffeats, it was very nice meeting you a few weeks ago. My husband and I are really enjoyed your lists of the “best” this and the best that. You sure do get around to a loads of restaurants. We noticed how nice you and your party were to the waitress and busyboy and how you kibbutzed with the bartender. I also saw how you spoke with Mike the owner after eating. What I am trying to say, is that you obviously get real engaged with the “joint” that you are eating at.
We eat quite often at Mamma’s and are glad that others are now hearing about this really good restaurant.
Keep up the good work.
jc: Just had a chance to read your post. It was a pleasure meeting you and your husband…say hello for me.
When I eat in a “joint” in addition to the decor/food/prices, I like to get a “feel” for the people who work there and owner.
It really isn’t too hard being nice to the staff, trust me, I know how hard most of them work.
Anyway…I really enjoyed Mamma’s.
Thanks for writing…
