The wife and I hit this place up last Wednesday for a post-Lenten repast and came away very impressed! It's a culinary dining experience and, while you pay for it, it'll make for a nice treat every now and then. We started with the Meat Fedora: Quality meats, all around. However, the bill of the cap was a bit tough. I went with the Buck Massacre and enjoyed the tang imparted by the peppery blood sauce. My wife had the Beer Battered Bear. I was excited to see how pure rage might season the meat and, while an excellent dish, it tasted like most farm-raised black bear I've had in the past. Perhaps we happened to score a mellow bear :( Because it's lent I wasn't able to try any of their meat cocktails, but we finished with the Pot Belly Pudding, which rounded out the meal well. 4 stars and not 5 for the price and a few off notes. FYI - I saw a pair of their Meat Boots in the gift case and, while very stylish, think motorcycle boots not cowboy boots. That could make a difference for some...

It was packed. We were greeted and seated immediately. Our server was wonderful even though it was only her second day. The food was exactly what we were expecting and overall we were happy with our choices. I did give this restaurant a 3/5 for how chaotic the restaurant felt. They made a couple take their drinks and belongings and move to a different table so we didn't have to sit at a high top with a toddler which we appreciated but aAlso, 3 different waitresses delivered 3 wrong food items to our table.

We sat at a high top and had quick, straightforward service from our waitress, which we appreciated. We ordered a draft beer and a cosmo, both came out fast and were solid. Shared the small crispy chicken salad which came with two sides of Thousand Island, a nice touch, and the fries were piled on since we split them. I had the Cajun chicken sandwich and it had a good kick from the seasoning and chipotle aioli. It's definitely one of the highlights of Altoona if you're passing through.

The owner and his staff were very friendly and I thought it was awesome that they took orders all the way up to closing time at 8. We got a pizza steak sub and fries, I've never had one like it and I'm obsessed. The marina and cheese covered steak was topped with lettuce, tomato, raw onion and a balsamic dressing that was to die for, definitely took the sub to the next level. The plate of fries were fresh cut and large enough to feed a family of 4. The restaurant was spacious and clean with a really cool video game table/console in the center. I also thought it was cool how the owners had assigned each menu item bat codes that employees simply scan when ringing up, very efficient. It's a shame we live 3 hours away, this place would be our go to for subs.

I feel like our cocktails took way too long to get to us... and the restaurant wasn't all that busy at all. I did feel the drink prices were steep as most Drinks are at least $10. For food I ordered the Mexican street corn pizza. It was ok. Filled the hunger void. It wasn't totally what I was expecting. I was expecting a lot more of the corn taste, the mayo, the classic cotija cheese. The whole thing was rather overpowered by the yellow chipotle tasting sauce on top. Overall good, not my favorite. Definitely want to come back though as the restaurant as a very cool vibe and the food is definitely fresh. I absolutely want to try another recipe pizza next time!

I was pleased to visit Mama's -- it was very busy but still pleasant, warm, quiet, and nobody had to wait for a seat despite the number of customers. I was not warned about the extremely large portions of food so ordered a slice of Sicilian pizza which was about the size of a small cake. I also ordered angel hair pasta and a meatball (which was the size of a baseball) as well as a chicken salad, Pittsburgh-style with fries on it. Everything was good, especially the service. Mama's seems to be geared more to locals but I still had a great meal and everyone was super friendly. There is another place I love to eat at nearby or I would have come back for another meal. Next time I'm in the area on a Monday, I'll be back. Thanks for a great meal!

It sells beer and wine and has a place to dine in on your MTO purchase. CONS: Store always seems short staffed. One cashier sometimes checking out ten people, I'd imagine they have high turn-over rates. The food prep people always seem short staffed as well. I've also had another customer tell me that he used to work there and while the cashier is drowning, there is usually a manager just sitting in the back room. My biggest complaint: There are always people "hanging out" inside and out. A lot of shady people, I may add- quick story: I won $7.00 on a scratch off recently and went to the lotto machine to check my ticket. It asked if I wanted to redeem my card. I needed actual cash to buy a shirt from work so I wanted cash since I rarely carry cash, not more tickets. I walked over to the cashier to ask a question and redeem my ticket at the register. Turned and looked at the machine, like a Ninja some dirtball quickly hit the yes button (I didn't know at that moment that was what he was doing) redeeming my ticket for more tickets and then left the store. The cashier told me that my scratch off had already been redeemed. The cashier and manager were apologetic but there was nothing they could do, which I understand. In the middle of the afternoon, there were 3 guys just "hanging out" at the tables, one arguing loudly with his girlfriend calling her an effing b while kids are walking by. Oh and the kids, plenty of young children loitering with their parents at 1130 at night as well. Also, often an abundance of lecherous pervs (again sitting outside) leering at you if you're a female like they are some stereotypical construction worker from an 80's movie. This is quickly becoming 13th Street Sheetz. Take out the seating so the creepers have nowhere to sit around and take up space, making other customers feel uneasy. I'm sure they used to get a lot of hospital staff... probably not anymore. They'd more than likely rather drive to Ivyside Sheetz.. I can imagine it's only a matter of time before robberies start to become commonplace. I hope not but if these issues aren't addressed, it's inevitable.
