Solid Italian restaurant with really good food. The complimentary garlic rolls were warm but not hot. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our meal here! The bruschetta chicken was juicy and flavorful. The pasta with it was light and delicious. The chicken parm was quite good, but the bolognese sauce was the star of the meal. This was one of our favorite meat sauces we've had in quite a while. We finished the meal with a complimentary budino that our server brought to us as first time guests. The butterscotch flavor was light and creamy, so good! It was the perfect sweet treat to end the meal. Service was very good, our primary server was on top of things and the other people helped him out as well. Manager checked on us too. The restaurant is fairly small and was pretty full. From the outside, it's very unassuming but inside was nice and felt cozy. read more

Having been here several times over the past several years, I'm surprised this is my first review! Anyway, this hole-in-the-wall restaurant is an amazing find! By all accounts, you wouldn't think it's all that great figuring its location and size but believe me when I tell you, don't be fooled! The food here, as well as the service, is top notch! I don't think I've EVER had a bad meal here. One day I'm gonna work up the courage to try their pizza as many people seem to love it. I really can't find anything to complain about really other than maybe I wish they had a more spacious layout? Outside of that, my advice (if you are wondering) is to not miss out and make reservations TODAY! You won't regret it! read more

I love having a great local Italian restaurant! It's in a plaza which makes parking very convenient and it's a very cozy vibe inside. We always come back for just the hot honey pizza and the shrimp scampi. They are very very good. Service is always good too.

We had a great evening at this neighborhood italian restaurant. Not sure if the man was the owner or the manager... but he took care of us from the moment we arrived. Offered us drinks while we waited for our table which was not long at all. Our server was friendly & attentive. The owner/manager came personally to check on our table... and even joked around with us. That alone made our evening. But it's not gonna be a great evening if the food was not good. And glad the food was fantastic. After dinner, they sent us a budino on the house which was absolutely delicious. read more

I found this hidden gem tucked away in a Vons parking lot! I'm not gonna lie the location had me skeptical but as soon as we stepped inside we knew we found the perfect date night spot. The ambiance was so fun and had a cute romantic vibe. The inside is a bit small but it adds to the cute romantic atmosphere. The staff was INCREDIBLE. I wish I got our waiters name but he was extremely nice and attentive. His suggestions were great and he was very kind. The garlic knots were delicious! I will say the vodka pasta wasn't my favorite. I am a big spicy vodka gal and this one didn't really blow me away but it was good. My family enjoyed their dishes as well. Ambiance: 5 Staff: 5 Food: 4 read more

We came back here for the fifth time, and it somehow keeps getting better every visit. The first four times we came were during COVID when they were doing al fresco dining, and even then the experience was amazing so we already knew the food was something special. This time dining in again just confirmed it. Every single item we ordered was absolutely delicious perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and clearly made with care. You can tell there's real consistency in the kitchen, which is rare and so appreciated. They start you off with warm garlic knots, which are honestly addictive and set the tone right away. On top of the incredible food, the service really stood out. Carlos, our server, was attentive, friendly, and super engaging with the table without ever being overbearing. He made the whole experience feel welcoming and personal. The ambiance was perfect for a group of friends or a romantic date night. Safe to say, we'll definitely be back again (and again). Highly recommend! read more

We visited MA's Italian Kitchen for the first time to celebrate a birthday lunch, and we were not disappointed! Apart from the amazing food, our server Rene was what really made our experience great. This is a great spot in Burbank for any occasion. Appetizers Bruschetta (5/5) - The tomatoes and microgreens were extremely fresh and marinated well, I definitely recommend getting 8 instead of 4 since they were so good. Calamari (3/5) - Probably the only mid part of this whole meal, it was just.. ok... Mains Chicken Milanese (5/5) - The chicken was cooked perfectly, slightly crispy outside but extremely tender and juicy inside. The arugula and lemon vinaigrette also added a nice bright flavor. Meat Lasagna (5/5) - My dad always orders a lasagna when we eat Italian, and he said this is one of the best he's ever had! Ravioli Rosa (5/5) - Cheese ravioli with a pink sauce that is so good you eat the extra with bread. Definitely recommend! Dessert Butterscotch Budino (5/5!!!) - This was complimentary since we were celebrating a birthday, but wow I would absolutely order this again and be more than happy to pay for it. Even though the rest of our meal was all around fantastic, this was definitely the highlight. We ate it so fast I don't even have a picture of it. I 100% recommend MA's, and we will definitely be back! read more

Love love ma's!! They are so kind here and service is always top tier. I feel like I'm stepping into my own family's restaurant. Everything is so clean and the food is tasty as well. I'm so sad they changed the recipe for their butterscotch desert, but this spot is still one of our go tos for date night. read more

We had a great dinner here! I came with my daughter, Lilly, and we both had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, the portions were generous and everything tasted fresh. The pizza, pasta, garlic knots, and dessert were all excellent. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere made it easy to relax and enjoy our meal together. We'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended! read more

We ordered online for pick-up, very accessible website. When I picked up our orders, the restaurant was packed and there was a queue. We ordered Chicken Piccata, the chicken was so the tender and it was rich in flavor. My partner ordered Ma's Classic Spaghetti & Meatballs, the pasta was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious overall. This is definitely going to be on my list for an Italian dine-in experience in Burbank. read more

We love going there. They have great dishes and mid dishes. Pizza is amazing, Alfredo is a 10, and they have the best motzarella sticks, they have the best lasagna I've ever had at a restaurant, my sister loves their bolognese, the servers are always amazing. Even when they're busy. Now on to the mid, calamari is pretty bland, meatballs have a weirdly soft consistency and bland as well. But out of everything we tried those were the only things we didn't like. Service is truly amazing , I can't remember the servers name but he tall and good looking, he jokes around and tries to get you the food just as you ask. Manager is great, cooks do an amazing job. We did get food to go ones and it wasn't half as good as eating there. So definitely dine in. Super dog friendly, and super kid friendly , they have paper table toppers and give you crayons read more

We started with the delicious garlic knots. They came out warm and definitely a great way to start the meal. We also ordered a calamari to share. It was pretty good. Nothing special. We also got the Burrata Caprese appetizer to share and it came with a giant ball of Burrata on a bed of tomatoes, which was delicious. It was definitely my favorite appetizer. We tried to bowl the sweat pea soup. It was very watery. We got a Caesar salad to share with a table. It's a huge portion, so share it with the least four people. I got the mushroom ravioli. It was pretty good. The ravioli came in a marsala sauce and there were a lot of mushrooms. The only thing that I thought was a bit weird was that the ravioli were fried on one side before that they were before they were thrown in the sauce. We got the medium cut steak special, which came with asparagus and mashed potatoes. It was well cooked and tender. Highlight of the meal was the white pizza. If you get anything above a very small, make sure you share it with the table. We also got the vodka pasta. It's a pretty big portion well seasoned and quite delicious. For dessert, we had a tiramisu Panna cotta and pistachio cake. The Panna cotta was definitely the best and the pistachio cake was dry. Overall, pretty good experience for my birthday. We sat outside at the patio and it was nice and not too cold. The staff was very kind and accommodating. I can't wait to come visit again. read more

I really wanted to love this place. The reviews are amazing and we were finally able to go for lunch since dinner can be harder to get a reservation. We went pretty early so it was empty and the waiter was very nice. He explained the menu and was really helpful. The appetizer was fine (caprese) but unfortunately the main courses were not what we were hoping for. I ordered the cacio e Pepe with shrimp. The shrimp was crispy but to get that level of sear they had massively overcooked it. It was tough/ rubbery and really hard to eat. The sauce for the pasta was also pretty watery and flavorless. I never do this as I don't want to make people feel bad but I did end up sending it back. They brought out a margarita pizza instead which was also a bit weird. The middle was very soggy and there were large globs of cheese on top of another cheese layer which made the dish overwhelming. My husband had the bolognese. The sauce itself wasn't bad but the pasta was overcooked. I felt really bad as the people working there were all so nice but unfortunately we just didn't like the food. read more

Amazing! Cozy and delicious Italian food that warms the heart and soul. First time here and was greeted by the owner Michel. He led us to our table and we were lucky to get a table inside. Do make a reservation if you can. The restaurant has limited seating inside with some extra seating in their covered outside patio. Our waiter asked if we had dined here before and let us know about their specials. We started off with some complimentary garlic knots - soft, garlicky, and sprinkled with Parmesan. We ordered a large house salad to share- good for about 3-4 people. We also ordered the Chicken Piccata and Chicken Marsala, both $28 each. The chicken was JUICY and both saucy sauces were finger licking good. The piccata was lemony and the Marsala had good umami flavor with the mushrooms. It's comes with a side of olive oil/garlic pasta and it's the perfect amount of food. Best of both worlds. We were gifted a free Butterscotch BUDINO for dessert, since it was our first time here, and that was such a sweet touch. The BUDINO was GOOD. Salted caramel and custard/pudding go hand and hand. They also have a beer and wine menu , plus soft drinks, tea , and coffee. Plenty of parking too in this shopping center. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with delicious food and wonderful service. Felt like home. read more

MAS Italian is the kind of neighborhood spot that gets a lot right--and knows exactly what people come for. First, the garlic knot bread. Soft, fresh, cheesy, and borderline dangerous. No butter, no olive oil--completely unnecessary. These disappear before you even realize it. The pastas carry the meal. The spaghetti comes with three impressively large meatballs--pork and veal, tender to the point of almost falling apart, with Parmesan worked in so each bite has that rich, savory depth. Comforting in the best way. The rigatoni holds its own too, with sauce that actually clings instead of pooling. The only dip: the chicken piccata and veal marsala. The piccata could've used a brighter lemon lift, and the marsala felt a bit shy--the wine didn't quite step forward the way you hope. Perfectly fine, just overshadowed by stronger dishes. Food came out at a reasonable pace, but service overall felt a bit rushed. Ben did a great job introducing the dishes, though plates were cleared quickly with frequent check-ins--just enough to make you feel like you needed to speed things up. Overall, generous, satisfying, and easy to like. Not flawless, but very easy to come back to--especially if those garlic knots are involved. read more

Was in the mood for Italian after eating turkey and ham for the last two days from thanksgiving. Was in Glendale and searched and found Mas Italian Kitchen which was highly rated. After visiting, I can see why. It likely would have been a five star review but unfortunately with nothing an advanced reservation we could only be seated in the patio. Which is covered with heaters. However, it was not the best idea for me to sit on an outside patio for a first visit. Inside looks very nice and comfortable so hopefully next time I'll have an opportunity to eat inside. Now the food. We were provided some good garlic knots. They were fresh and flavorful and easily could ruin your meal if you ate too many. I had a mixed green salad that was well dressed with a nice cheesy blue cheese dressing. It was the small stater salad but it was huge. For my entree I went with the rigatoni bolognese. It was a hearty dish with melted cheese and I really enjoyed it. Other got the chicken parm which came with two nicely sized cutlets. Also we ordered a vegan pasta dish that was devoured. No dessert on this trip but like sitting inside, maybe next time. read more

Great little restaurant kind of in an odd location between a Vons and the freeway. Definitely quite loud when close to full. Service was excellent. Food was pretty good. Taking a star off because one dish had both well done and totally underdone pasta. The bread they give was good but not great. Desserts were delish. read more

Did not have high expectations and ended up finding my dream pizza to exist here. I've ALWAYS been a big hot/sweet combo girly, and when I found out they had a hot honey situation thing going on, I didn't think twice about putting in an order. I don't eat pepperoni so I took the meat out, but the pizza made me feel like I was floating in another ether. This is the exact type of combination I like to have on a pizza and it's been 2 weeks now but I still think about her often. I also got an eggplant parm which was okay, but the cheese felt a little old. It wasn't gooey but hardened, but I can't complain too much since I did order takeout and I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt that it wasn't fresh because of it being a pickup order. Finished with their tiramisu and it was strong but solid. You can go without it but if you're a tiramisu person like me I do think it's worth a try. All in all, I will be back just for my dream pizza. Glad I got to find a local place around here (haven't tried too many places in NoHo yet). read more

Date of visit: September 5, 2025 Selections: - Garlic Bread - Mushroom Ravioli - Butterscotch Budino (Free) Experience: Decided to go here after providing my friend with two options to pick from that I had selected from a list my husband gave me of Italian Restaurants near Glendale. My friend ended up realizing he had been to this restaurant during COVID as we got closer to the location. Definitely glad I put in a reservation online because the restaurant did get packed as the night went on. We were seated right away after telling them my name for the reservation and I wish I got our main server's name because he was very sweet and friendly (which is overwhelming for me as an introvert, but my husband loved it rofl) as we settled in and placed our order. Even the other servers that passed our table were kind and made sure we were doing okay after we put in our order and were waiting for a bit. I liked how kid friendly the restaurant was because I noticed the table next to us had a bucket of crayons for a little girl to use to draw on the table cover. The inside of the restaurant did give a bit of a romantic feel considering how dark it was in there and I definitely was having a battle with the lamp that was set up at the table since it's brightness and off switch is actually based on touching the top of the lamp and I kept getting too close to it lolz We were served their Garlic Bread first and it was so good even with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar that we dipped it in after my friend asked for a side of the sauces. Our entrees did take a bit to get to us, but you can tell why it took awhile once we started eating our main food. I did let them add cheese on the top before digging into my Mushroom Ravioli and it was actually really good. I liked how creamy the sauce was and the different flavors mixed in. I didn't end up finishing it since it was a lot between the bread and a bowl full of ravioli. So before we could pay for the check, since we had mentioned that three of the four of us were here for the first time, the owner brought out a free Butterscotch Burdino that he makes in-house for us to try. I liked how creamy it was and it wasn't too sweet, but we couldn't finish it since we were pretty full and actually craving ice cream. The owner did check on us to see how we liked the dessert and I slightly felt bad that we hadn't licked the bowl clean for him, but I think he didn't take offense. My husband stepped in to chat with him about the restaurant and to compliment him on the desert. As I was leaving, our main server asked if I needed a bag for our to-go boxes and I said yes. It took him a bit to get back to me with the bag since he kept getting held up as I stood by the entrance/exit of the restaurant that my husband came in to check on me since he, my friend, and mom had exited the restaurant already. But the owner spotted me waiting and realized I was waiting for a bag that he asked if we would like some fresh Garlic Bread to-go since we had been waiting. So I left my husband there and went to check on my friend and mom. Eventually, my husband came out with the fresh bread to go and I couldn't believe how giving the owner was amongst the free dessert and bread. Definitely will be coming back here to try more items on their menu! read more

I recently dined here for the first time as part of a large group (special event). We had a smaller version of the menu to order from, with pre-chosen antipasti, then a choice for salad and entree as well as desert. I really enjoyed the Burrata Caprese with flavorful tomatoes and it was not over dressed. We also had calamari which to me lacked seasoning in the breading and was cooked to too much of a golden color. Our antipasti came out in minutes, then it was about 45 minutes before our order was taken and another long wait to get to the second course. The whole meal was almost 4 hours long on a Sunday night. I was sitting in a booth on the banquette side and it was very warm with the restaurant full. Service was friendly but the pacing was off. I understand we were a large group and hopefully this is not the typical experience. I chose the Pecorino Arugula salad and it was my favorite item of the night. It had a good amount of shaved cheese and the lemon vinagrette was delicious. It was also perfetly dressed. For entree I tried the Rigatoni Bolognese which appears to be their signature dish. The pasta was cooked well but the sauce was thin and felt watery on top of the pasta. The amount of meat was small. It did not taste like a 6 hour sauce to me - more like something I could pull together at home myself. Many on my table ordered the filet mignon and the cut of the steak did not look like filet. It was pyramid shaped and from what I heard, quite tough. For dessert, which took another half hour to come out, I tried the Butterscotch Budino and our host brought tiramisu for the group. The budino was flavored well but not as creamy and rich as I've had in the past at other locations. Overall, for the price I did not enjoy the food. I would go back for the caprese and salad, and potentially different appetizers but was not impressed with the entrees. read more

Display is very tucked away into the corner of the plaza however, you can smell the deliciousness of the pasta from afar when walking towards the restaurant. There is a line already upon arrival and it was about an hour line when we came during rush-hour. However, the bar is open for a first come first served so the three of us sat on the bar with no problem. The waiter was super nice and there was daily specials that was not on the menu that they would offer in addition to the ones on the menu. Their dessert is also delicious. I would definitely come back. I had ordered the clam pasta with shrimp on the side and it was delicious. 10/10 experience! There are also plenty of parking that is shared with the plaza that I wouldn't worry about. They also have a 10 minute parking only slot for pick up, which is very nice to have. read more

This is a cute little space! My friends brought me here for a surprise birthday meal and everything was just excellent!! The only thing is that it does get a little bit hot in there. But other than that from food, to service, to ambiance. It was five stars! I believe you have to make a reservation. Although, it would be ideal to make one because the place is pretty small. The food - My only disappointment was that I didn't order the mushroom ravioli because that dish was SO GOOD. I ordered the shrimp scampi. Honestly, when I first tried this. I gave it a 5/5 but after trying the mushroom ravioli I think I'm going to knock it down to 4.9. The Shrimp Scampi is lemony. Wasn't too much of a fan of the lemon taste after I tried the mushroom ravioli. I think you see where this is going. LOOL Lasagna - Surprisingly this was not bad. It's a little bit salty but the it goes great with the free garlic bread!! Clam linguini - This was not bad at all, but going back to the mushroom ravioli.. Nothing beats a mushroom ravioli... (if you read this in the tune of nothing beat a jet 2 holiday then ily) Butterscotch Budino - wow. No words for this. Except I do. And it's that SO GOOD. Everything just blends together so well. Everything is made in house and it just melts in your mouth. Mushroom Ravioli - Have I mentioned this yet? 10/5. I recommend it!! Lastly, I want to give a shoutout the the amazing staff. Especially to our server Seth. You can tell that everyone here really loves their job and helping the customers. Thank you again for a great night! Can't wait to come back read more

I visited Ma's Italian Kitchen for dinner with my friend Yvette, and while I might have been here a decade ago, this felt like a first-time experience. I made a 7:30pm reservation on a Monday, and the restaurant was about half full -- a good sign for a cozy, intimate spot in a large strip mall with easy parking. From the moment we walked in, the service stood out. Seth, the host (who also answered the phone when I called), was genuinely warm and welcoming. Our server, Noah, was attentive without hovering, and the long‑haired busser was exceptional -- truly top‑tier service across the board. The menu is the perfect length: not overwhelming, not sparse. They started us with a complimentary pretzel‑dough bun with cheese, which was a nice touch. For appetizers, we ordered the burrata salad, fried calamari, and arugula salad with pecorino. The burrata was exquisite -- creamy, high‑quality cheese with great olive oil and balsamic. The tomatoes had tough centers, which happens with heirlooms, but they could have been trimmed better. The arugula salad had great flavor thanks to the pecorino (love that they use pecorino instead of parmesan), but it needed a bit more lemon dressing. The calamari was the weakest dish: soft batter and chewy texture, likely overcooked. Overall, the starters were a solid B+. The eggplant parmesan, however, was a home run. Their marinara sauce is rich, balanced, and full of flavor -- exactly what you want from an Italian kitchen. The baked eggplant melted in your mouth, and the side of spaghetti with marinara complemented it perfectly. Solid A. The only real disappointment was the salmon entrée. It arrived dry, overcooked, under-seasoned, and missing the lemon sauce entirely. The portion was tiny for the $42 price point. I had one bite and had to send it back. To their credit, both Seth and the chef tasted it and agreed it wasn't up to their standards. Their professionalism and sincerity were appreciated. Despite the salmon miss, the service and the rest of the meal were strong enough that I would absolutely return. Next time, I'll stick with the burrata, arugula salad (with a bit more dressing), and eggplant parmesan -- and maybe try dessert. As a sommelier, I do wish their corkage fee were lower. I'm comfortable with $10-$12, but once restaurants hit $25-$30, I usually skip bringing wine altogether. It's not a dealbreaker, but it does influence where I dine more frequently. Ratings: Location: B Venue/Decor: B Menu Selection: A- Service: A Food Taste, Quality & Temperature: B- (B+ without the salmon) Value: B Overall: Solid B / 4 stars. I'll be back. read more

I booked a reservation here for 8:15 pm to celebrate a birthday. We got seated a little before 8:45 pm, however, because the group at our reserved table took longer than expected. I realized that the restaurant was small and loud when I stepped in, and most of the tables were for only two people. It was also my first time booking on Resy, and I noticed that there was a $25 cancellation or no-show fee per person. That made me want to get to the restaurant early just to be careful. The app let me type in what occasion the reservation was for. We got the fried calamari ($16), eggplant parmigiana ($22), rigatoni bolognese ($28), and frutti di mare ($32). With very flavorful dishes, the food quality here was great. I enjoyed the rigatoni bolognese. The sauce had a little creamy texture and tasted very flavorful. I'd recommend that dish if visiting. Also, note that the frutti di mare is a spicy dish as the sauce is cooked with red peppers. I thought that each bite I tried had some kick to it. We got a free dessert as well. The butterscotch budino was like a rich and sweet custard or pudding. Our server, Seth, was friendly and helpful. We noticed that one of the water glasses had a stained rim, and he brought us a replacement. Also, he helped hold the lamp while I took the picture attached to this review. Tipping (based on the bill's grand total by default) is on a portable point of sale device the server hands you. Before that, they give you an itemized receipt, so you can keep it as a reference. read more

Never heard of MA's until I got home last night and was checking DoorDash to see what I wanted to bring in. MA's shows up in my feed and I'll try anywhere that has penne with vodka sauce. I ordered that with some meatballs included, and the garlic bread. I've had penne with vodka sauce more times that I can count - only once or twice has it not been up to snuff. Well, happy to report it's excellent here, perfectly prepared pasta, sauce was also perfect, the meatballs were the right addition (might try the sausage next time) and the garlic bread was also excellent. Don't know what dining in there is like, but I'm sure I'll give that a try, too. I'll definitely order from there again and try something else. read more
