This was always my favorite Italian restaurant in town. One of the first places I took my husband on a date when we first starting dating and introduced him to Italian food. The last pizza we had was disappointing but tonight's meal is just sad. The spaghetti and meatballs which is normally his favorite was dry and lacking flavor and my chicken parm had a weird flavor. So sad looks like we will need to find a new place read more

Eat and be happy ..disappointment . Just doesn't exist here. The best Gorgonzola salad I've ever had.

Always such friendly staff! They even help carry my takeout to my vehicle since I always have my two sons with me who are only 1 and 3!

Our group of 6 had a late lunch at Mama Lisa a few days to celebrate an anniversary. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The pasta figolia soup was excellent. Ammia our waitress did an excellent job making sure we were enjoying ourselves. She said she was a new waitress and she made our lunch special. read more

Great pizza and chicken Francese and fast accurate delivery very friendly and professional will always order

Mama Lisa is the Italian family restaurant you see on tv. My family and I came here after a long day at Waterdrinker Family Farm. Not gonna lie, I was nervous this was going to be a place where I didn't feel comfortable; but it was the complete opposite. We were warmly welcomed by AC, who basically set the tone for the rest of the evening. Moving into the food--the portions are shareable for two people! The breadsticks are addictive, so make sure you don't fill up on that LOL. Highly recommend the stuffed shells and the lasagna. Shoutout to Desire for the awesome customer service ! She was attentive, and made sure drinks were refilled every time! read more

Bottom Line: I get to say I told you so!!! Yelp works!!! So I'm visiting my brother and we decide on Italian food. He drives to a place that an acquaintance of his owns. We get there and it's closed - he's flummoxed - I'm not. I'm already Yelping it!! I find Mama Lisa and start showing him the pics. He reluctantly agrees to give it a try. Guess what!? It's my brother's new favorite restaurant!! He's already told a bunch of people about it and we've been back twice so far. He had Chicken Parmigiana. It was a huge portion. Nice thick pieces of moist chicken with plenty of cheese. I had the Stuffed Shells. I was craving an overload of cheese and I got it. Again, a huge portion. The sauce on both was good. Not too chunky, not too bland, not too spicy - just the perfect red sauce layer that doesn't take away from the other ingredients. Bottomless Bread and Butter, and a Salad with your dinner too. The pizza on the pizza side of the restaurant looked good too. That's next! Bottom Line: It's a great place for a nice sit down Italian dinner that's not going to break the bank. read more

Words cannot express how grateful we are to the amazing staff at Mama Lisa's. We had a loss in the family and required last minute catering for a large party. Not only where they super accommodating, they got 3 trays of delicious food, 2 pies, a gluten free dish and some appetizer ready for us in under 2 hours! A.C was an absolute pleasure to deal with and we are just so thankful for all they did for us read more

Favorite Italian restaurant food very good. Had the pasta Alfredo & bolognese. Highly recommended! Mozzarella sticks are not worth it. Every thing else is amazing. I come here probably every Sunday. Make a reservation, if you can. read more

Always friendly staff great food social distancing respected as well as masks Feel safe eating there and respect staff working to stay with Covid guidelines read more

Food is good just make sure to get a reservation. If packed can get noisy. Take out is good as well.

Ease of ordering online is great. Delicious food, lots to choose from. Only complaint is sometimes slightly over salted on chicken dishes. Other than that we're always satisfied and have been ordering from here for years. Always friendly over the phone and at pick up. read more

Just picked up Pizza here they Charged Me $2.10 for a Credit Card Convenience Charge? Really to buy their food? Pizza wasn't that great and it was cold don't waste your time go to the diner! read more

I ordered the Ceasar salad and broccoli and penne a la vodka for delivery and it was the worst food i've had the misfortune to taste. The Caesar salad was overpowering with the dressing and had a really nasty taste to it, the broccoli was soggy and a disgusting, sloppy mess, and the penny à la la vodka was just indescribable. I ended up, throwing the whole lot away. I would never recommend this place read more

Superb food, their sauce is incredible, generous portions. Service is courteous and efficient. Such a variety of sauces and pastas. The rice balls are amazing read more

Great place. Words can not describe how happy I was when the Pizza came out, but long wait times. Well worth it, but don't come here if you are in a rush. read more

Loved the Vodka Penne, Shrimp risotto special, and most of all the friendly servers and ambience!

Have had multiple family parties at Mama Lisa's - service and food are both excellent every time.

Good tasting food and they also have Gluten Free choices. I would recommend this restaurant

Great restaurant if you want to sit in and dine. Food is great but service is extremely slow whether you go on a busy night or slow night. SMH. It's like the young waiters forget about you. Not one waitstaff came to ask if we needed anything. My 5 year old daughter had to get up and ask for a refill. As for picking up horrible. Smh. They are always off with their times. I preplaced a take order and still when I got to the restaurant I had to wait an additional 25 mins to pick up when I already gave them an hour and a half notice. Then my daughter wanted something and I added on and it took another 15 mins to get her ice cream and 4 employees later. read more

Stopped here on Sunday evening, sat at the bar and had a great time. So happy to see all the gluten free options from appetizers to desserts. We shared the seafood salad with octopus and it was well worth it, so so good. I could have stopped there but I also ordered a gluten free pizza which was delicious, and they burned it exactly how I like it. (Extra extra crispy is the only way to eat gluten free pizza in my opinion! ) My boyfriend ordered the chicken saltimbocca and he loved it. He finished his meal with the chocolate cake and was not disappointed. Overall we really really enjoyed ourselves and we will be back. Since they offer gluten free bread I want to get the antipasto platter, it looked amazing! That with the bread and a glass of wine, some serious perfection! See you soon! read more

I think the pizza here is outstanding. Thin crust, quality cheese, tasty sauce and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Food and service is wonderful! I recommend this Restaurant to anyone that wants real good Italian.

Staff are incredibly rude at the pizza side and are always giving you dirty looks; when I came in to order food they never gave me the rest of my change and just pocketed it. Pizza is also way too greasy. read more

We had take out from this restaurant last night. We had not been here in a while and since we are looking to support local restaurants during the New York Pause we decided to eat from Mama Lisa's. Just as we remembered, friendly staff inside at the takeout counter. The portions we're plenty, the food was delicious. The pizza was eh, but it was late at night and wouldn't stop us from going back. Overall though a great local Italian restaurant! read more

We ordered delivery from here after trying to choose between all the Italian spots in the area. Overall everything was excellent! We got 2 rice balls, I got a house salad and stuffed eggplant appetizer, and my boyfriend got an eggplant parm hero, his favorite. He said the hero was a touch oily and needed more sauce, but overall was very good! The rice balls were perfect! I love that they stayed crispy even after being delivered. Eggplant was excellent. Only had one bite because I was full from my rice ball and salad. Everything was reasonable. We got all of that for just over $28. Looking forward to trying more food from here. And probably eating more rice balls :) read more

If you want authentic Italian with great and personable service, take a gander at this Way-Station to The Hamptons. The Chicken Francais ( or Flounder, if personalized), together with lemon, is perfecto. We all indulged in A-LOT of Angel Hair Pasta with gobs of Garlic and butter! Heaven can wait! Hop-skip- and a jump and we're in Saghaponic! Whoopee. read more

One other complaint I didn't mention of my last Review 9 days ago . One shrimp dish we ordered was strange. In the past or in all other restaurants when you order shrimp you get maybe 4 or 5 shrimp. (WHOLE SHRIMP) that wasn't the case for this visit they actually gave me 3 shrimp but they cut them perfectly in half from the head to tail. I never ever seen that before how the hell did they even find the time or spend the effort to do that. I'm thinking it's frozen shrimp that comes pre cut ? So 3 shrimp now look like 6 shrimp until you pick one up with your fork and notice it was sliced perfectly in half Geez ownership had to change over the last 3 yrs and if it didn't whats going on people ? I like to get a few answers if you don't mind responding Thanks read more

They have the absolute best penne ala vodka I've ever had!!! The restaurant is beautiful. 10/10 read more

Food and service always excellent. One of the best Italian food restaurants left on Long Island.

Service was poor. I was in a large party (18 people) with one waitress who was unable to handle the large quantity of guests. Asked three times for the pasta that was part of my meal and never received it. When I advised her the 4th time ) at the end of the meal) she told me that she would wrap it up for me to take home. We paid the bill, and waited 10 minutes but finally walked out without the pasta. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Bland and late. Went here last night. The pizza was just okay. Nothing to write home about and the places around surrey circle could probably do better. Went here 3x in the past year for dinner. Once I remember the seafood being decent (platter for 2) the second time I got a chicken dish which needed to be sent back. The owner was very apologetic and had it fixed and packaged up as well as a comped dessert. The gnocchi (pink sauce with pork--maybe prosciutto) I had that day was really good. No complaints about that but the food took over 45 minutes to come out. The staff was really apologetic about that as well. The most recent time, I got fettuccine Alfredo which was beyond bland. It was flavorless. The garlic and salt at the pizza station added nothing to it. Even the salty Gorgonzola from my salad didn't help. The salad was good but very salty and the balsamic was mostly oil. The waitress came with cranberries which saved it. The calamari was bland. I know what the rings are made of, so I've accepted that, but the tentacles were dry, had too much batter and were completely flavorless. The marinara was too. Again, any time I'm here I'm treated with respect and the staff are courteous, but the food is very slow to come out (took about 20 minutes for plain pasta) and the food is bland. Bland. Bland. Bland. I heard it used to be better, but it's a bummer to save your appetite for no flavor payoff lol read more
