3 years ago, we went to another one of Big Mamma's Italian restaurants and it was great. So for our latest trip, I wanted to try another Big Mamma spot. Pink Mamma was the newest one opened and had a lot of hype. On our last night in Paris, we ventured all the way out to 9e from the Saint Germain area and it was FREEZING cold too. We got there around 7:30pm and were told it'd be a 2.5 hour wait. We walked to the Starbucks by the metro station we got off from and truly did wait for a full 2 and a half hours. This place is BUSY! Got seated at 10pm and the service was prompt and gracious. And the food? The truffle pasta is WORTH THAT WAIT! We also had a bruschetta starter and another pasta..but I forgot which. The truffle pasta is a must-order though. We also had great cocktails as well. There were no misses. Yes, the wait is crazy long. But they'll call you so you can wander elsewhere--no need to physically wait outside waiting for your name to be called. read more

It is not worth the hype. Do not waste your time. We waited for over an hour outside in the cold late at night and then finally once we were seated we saw our waiter once the entire time. When I finally received my meal, the pasta wasn't even hot and we never even got the dessert that we ordered. Basically, I'm never wasting my money or time here again. FAIL!!!! read more

Horrible service. Ignored by staff for 30 minutes. I had a reservation here after seeing this restaurant all over social media. I was so excited to try the food because the menu seemed unique and everything looked so delicious in pictures! The interior is also gorgeous, but this place is NOT worth visiting. The staff made my friend and I feel horrible. It was ridiculous that we were ignored after being seated *with a reservation.* I am extremely understanding when a restaurant is busy; however, parties that were seated after us were served right away. For the entire time we were in the restaurant, we were not even offered water. We attempted to waive down the staff multiple times to place an order. After being ignored by many staff members, we got the attention of one who was attentively listening to the party next to us. We were told by this waiter that someone else would be with us... but no one came. I had to walk up to another waiter to ask to place an order, but he said the same thing. It was a really frustrating and quite embarrassing experience. Every table that came after us were served water and a basket of bread within 5 minutes of being seated. We decided to leave the restaurant because we knew the food would not be enjoyable anymore after the service we experienced here. read more

This was such a gem! Fantastic food, beautiful restaurant and vibrant atmosphere. I had a 4 cheese pizza and my friend had the truffle pasta and both were fantastic. The pizza was huge, definitely enough to split between 2 people and the pasta portion looked small but was just right in the end. For dessert she had the tiramisu and I had the frozen yogurt parfait. The frozen yogurt is very tart, definitely not what I was expecting. The entire meal took over 2 hours but we were having such a good time we didn't even notice. It's a really nice place and good for groups read more

Pink Mamma - 4 cheese pizza, truffle pasta and rosè - Steakhouses Near Me - Paris, 75

Good dinner at Pink Mamma: I would give a 3 for the food, 4 for the space (cute but pretty small, there is very few space between your table and your neighbor's one), 4 for the service and then 5 for the playlist which was the BOMB (mix of funky/soul beats). We got the Gorgonzola Lovers (which indeed is for Gorgonzola lovers, it's good to try some of it but I would recommend to share this instead of having it for you). We also had the chestnut soup which was excellent ! This you can get to yourself. Finally we had the Tamahawk steak (1100 grams), delicious meat that we asked to get medium, but came up to our table as over cooked and burned on the top. It could have been more enjoyable, especially when you pay 33 euros/person for this meat. We had no sauce coming with it. It comes with a TONS of potatoes, it would have been great to have to option to get a salad or veggies on the side. Cons: like every single restaurant of this chain (East Mamma, Ober Mamma, Pizza Popolare etc..) you better get there very early as they take no reservation, and you'll get a text once your table is ready....in about 2 hours later. Don't go too far away though as you'll have 10 min to claim your table. Overall I'd try this restaurant once but would probably not come back. read more

My husband and I came to Paris and we were super excited to eat. We walked past Pink Mama one night and saw a line out the door. We had no idea what it was but we knew it had to be good. We jumped in that line and waited for a spot. In less than 30 minutes we had a seat at the bar, We were surrounded by this amazing interior, not too crazy on the lights not too cluttered but the atmosphere was amazing. We ordered everything and anything that we wanted to eat, and we devoured everything. Service was amazing and the food was top-tier. We cleaned our plates, and now that we're back in the States we constantly think about this amazing appetizer we had named Focaccia with tomato confit and stracciatella. It was one of the best Italian meals we had, and we even went to Italy. read more

One of the best meals I've had in a while!! The pasta could have been hotter but besides that it was perfect texture and flavor. The drinks and desserts were great as well! Seriously so wonderful make sure to make a reservation! read more

Slow. Extremely slow. 15 minutes to get water. 45min + to get food. Waiter checked on us 0 times between ordering and receiving food. You can find other delicious Italian restaurants in Paris. Go somewhere with great service. read more

We had very high hopes for Pjnk Mamma but unfortunately ended up very disappointed. I'm not usually one to comment on poor service but in this case it really affected our experience. The waiter could hardly look up from his phone the entire time. He had earbuds in and seemed as if he were in his own world. Something was wrong with the music which was loud (loud is not a problem) but it was going in and out every five seconds - we commented to three different people working there - all of them acknowledged it happening but no one did anything. It was maddening and very distracting. Finally the food - the truffle pasta was delicious but the pizza was a soggy mess, greasy and without flavor. No one ever bothered to ask how anything was. I was planning to explore the other floors in the restaurant and maybe have another drink but the experience was so poor we just wanted to leave. Really disappointing on one of our five nights in Paris. read more

Love this place. Super cute and great food. Also great service! It's worth the trip

We were super excited to try this place, but don't let social media fool you, the service was horrible and the food was mid at best. Our side salad was the first thing to come out (before drinks and mains) and we had our pizzas before we had our drinks! you can def find a restaurant just as cute with much better food/service. disappointed! read more

I was blown away by how good this place was I waited two days to eat here the first night I had reservations but I missed out because I got there late. The second night I was determined to eat there. The ambiance in the place was amazing very laid back and relaxing and the food was worth the wait the steak and the potatoes was amazing if you ever go to Paris put this place on you're to do list!!! read more

Ordered two different pastas. Both were severely undercooked. Don't give me wrong we love properly done al dente pasta but no these were just undercooked pasta. The truffle pasta looked nothing like the pictures previously posted. There were no slices of truffle on the pasta. Just crumps and it barely tasted like truffle pasta. Also if this is considered an Italian restaurant please serve the bread with olive oil as it was the case at Bambini. If not serve with butter. We asked for it and the female waiter acknowledged our request but never brought it. We had to ask another waiter for them to bring it. Overall if you want Italian food in Paris go to Bambini and not here. This place is very overrated. read more

Tip: Make a reservation*! And, request a table upstairs! Pink Mama is quite a popular restaurant, so don't get stuck with a long wait. However, if you do - they have a great speak-easy that will help you pass the time. Now, for the restaurant itself - its decor is charming from the flurry of flora in the restaurant to the copious amounts of kitschy framed art and portraiture. The food we had was quite good Italian fare, and every dish was delicious. Though be warned, it may be hard for a vegetarian or vegan to eat here. Still - it's worth it for the experience and wine list! *I've had a few people ask me how to make a reservation. Head to Bigmammagroup.com - you can also stop by when they open and make a reservation for your desired time. read more

The food was amazing. Make sure to make a reservation to avoid having to wait. We had to wait over an hour but the food was well worth it. read more

Great fun atmosphere with an upbeat vibe. The buratta was amazing as was the grilled octopus. Be sure to call ahead to make reservations since they are so popular. read more

So. Aesthetically. Pleasing. Not to mention the amazing Italian style pizza was perfectly cooked just the way I like it. Crunch crust with a soft doughy inside. Yum! I loved that my server had a great sense of humor and his sarcasm was even better. Just be sure to get in line about 30 minutes before they open bc it's a mad rush once they open the doors. Reservations can be made about a month in advance but it still does not guarantee you a table where you want. They will have space for you, but if you want to sit on the top floor and have a reservation you still need to be 40 mins early. I didn't check out the other floors, but have seen some really amazing pictures of those too. Don't discount those floors they get over looked and have just as amazing seating as the top floor. After some research I found that Pink Mama was just a branch of Big Mama Group and there are 7 different restaurant locations in Paris, some in London and I believe one or two outside Paris. They plan on opening one in nyc in 2020 I can't wait! read more

Pink Mamma was a 9.5/10 experience and one of our favorite meals in Paris! We arrived for our 6:45 reservation about 15 minutes early and were lucky enough to be seated on the beautiful top floor. If you want to guarantee a seat up there, reserve the first time slot of the night and get there early. The servers spoke great English and brought out free tap water to start. My boyfriend enjoyed a Pesca Point beer and I loved the mango mule cocktail! We skipped appetizers and ordered the famous truffle pasta and the girella di anatra duck ragu pasta. The food came out very quickly and we were absolutely blown away by the duck ragu dish. It was so rich and flavorful! The truffle pasta was very good as well, but it came out lukewarm and seemed to be pre-made since we came right as the restaurant opened. We decided to finish with the giant "XXL" creme brulee which came to the table flaming! It was easily enough for 3-4 people and was very good, but the bottom layer was a hazelnut cookie that got a bit soggy so that element seemed unnecessary. Overall, would HIGHLY recommend! Only 0.5 off because of the truffle pasta temperature and all the tables around us got bread but they forgot to bring ours. read more

Good food, Good vibe & inexpensive. I'm from the U.S. so I only ordered pizza and drinks. It was hella busy so if you don't have reservations get there 15-20mins before they open and be prepared for stairs read more

One of the best meals I have had in Paris! Honestly, I enjoyed my experience here more than some of the pricier Michelin star restaurants in France. If you are reading this now and are considering coming here, just stop right here and go make a reservation. This place gets pretty packed so I would recommend making a reservation ahead of time if you can. My bf and I got lucky and somehow got a table but we also went closer to 2 pm which is when they are about to close so it was definitely on the riskier side. They age their meat in house and you can see if when you go downstairs. The bf got the prime rib steak and he loved it. Actually, everything we got was amazing here -- even the drinks. The bloody mary was one of the best I have ever had. They make their own mix every morning from fresh tomatoes! The truffle pasta is a must here! The sauce and thick pasta texture complemented each other perfectly. It was one of the most amazing pasta dishes I have had. My mouth is starting to water as I am writing this review and thinking back to the taste of the truffle sauce on my tongue. Despite being really full, our server somehow convinced us to get the tiramisu cause he swore by it and I am glad we did. The tiramisu was super light and not overly sweet. We liked it so much that we ended up eating the whole thing. You know it is good when you feel super full but yet you can't seem to stop eating. I hope to come bak again one day! read more

I was really excited to try this restaurant & was sadly disappointed. I made reservations over 3 weeks ago before arriving to Paris. We pulled up & there was a long line for walk ins, I thought this place must be great if people are willing to wait in the cold for an hour. The hostess brought us right in & sat us downstairs in the bar. Our table faced the bar where we looked at dirty glasses & watched the wait staff all night. No ambiance at all. Our drinks were good & our appetizers were ok. I ordered the famous "truffle pasta" and the rest of our party had pizza, osobucco & the beef pasta. My dinner arrived a good 20 minutes after everyone else's food & it arrived cold. The pizza was cold as well. The truffle pasta was ok, nothing to rave about. I attempted to order another drink which they clearly forgot about & had to ask for yet again after 20 minutes. The bar was not so busy that they didn't have time to make, in fact the staff was busy taking shots. I had really high expectations for this restaurant & unfortunately, it was just a bust. DO NOT wait for an hour in line to eat here. I'm sure upstairs is beautiful, but we never got a chance to see it. Oh well, live & learn. read more

This restaurant is great. It has lots of great options on the menu. We ordered 2 orders of rice balls, steak, burrata cheese, and dessert. Great for 4 people. I took off a star for service. read more

I definitely wouldn't go without a reservation and we still had to wait in a line even with a reservation. It's not worth waiting hours for, just a trendy restaurant with a cool vibe. We were seated and probably waited close to 30 minutes before anyone asked us what we wanted to start off with to drink. After that, it went pretty smoothly and the food came out quickly. The staff speaks both English and French which is helpful when your French isn't perfect. I highly recommend the truffle pasta! The prosciutto and the big-ratta were great to start out with as well. This is a good restaurant but not worth the hype or an hour long line. read more

Wanted to love this place. The decor is pretty amazing. However, do NOT wait in line if you don't have reservations. We waited 2.5 hours only to realize once we were seated that the couple next to us made reservations last minute on the taxi ride over. Instead of letting in the people standing in line, they release the cancel reservations for last minute reservations. As a foodie, the food was fine. We ordered burrata which could have been seasoned better. The two pasta dishes were undercooked, not al dente. Service is slow. Reserve ahead of time if you want the experience of being there and posting but eat your meal somewhere else. read more

Lovely restaurant, delicious food and the staff was personable and friendly. We ordered the truffle pasta, steak and cauliflower.

Excellent food in lovely settings. Great service as well. If you want a table book it in advance or be 20-30m before they open. It was a long queue outside. Even if you have to stand in the line it is well worth it. read more

A tourist trap. We arrived there right around the time of opening and the line had already snaked around the building, so even with reservation we weren't able to get seated on the top floor. We ordered the Octopus and truffle pasta. The Octopus was extremely overcooked and tough. The truffle pasta could do less of the heavy cream and more flavor. Overall the ambiance was great and saved it from a 2-star rating. I would honestly just step in and snap a few photos rather than sit through a meal at this place, food was really not worth it. read more

First meal in Paris, favorite meal in Paris. The design of the building, interior and exterior was gorgeeeeoous and modern and hip. The wait staff spoke Italian and French (this plus jet lag really threw us for a loop). The tables are small and close, but felt cosy, not crowded. Great music playing the whole time. Our waiter helped us choose what to eat -- I heard meals in France are less shareable and more about getting courses. So we selected a three cheese pizza (yes, yes get a pizza!!) and the steak with frites. Both were awesome. This along with the free table baguette was more than enough food to last us all day. We each got two glasses of wine as well -- both perfect in taste and price. But why our favorite meal in all of Paris? I think because the food, service, decor, ambiance, location (close to everything in Montmartre) was totally up our alley. And anytime I impress my husband, it feels like a big win. read more

You are welcomed and guided to your table, there are multiple Floris wich all have their separate kitchen and crew. There are some great options on the menu. I tried the asparagus pizza wich was amazing! It was delivered in less than 15 minutes even if the restaurant is full. The prices are cheap compared to the expirience you get. There is some lovely sceneries too. read more

Save yourself the time. Food was alright. Service was horrible. Waited for every just to order and then our food didn't come out at the same time. Two dishes came out and the other two took another half an hour, why which time the others had finished. Sorry, so better. read more

If you don't have reservations, you'll be sitting at the bar. It's still worth the wait. The place has a party vibe, but the food is no joke. Try the truffle pasta and pizza. They have great wine to go with the food. Cocktails are amazing. read more

Wanted to love this place but the service was horrendous. I completely get that Europe has different service standards than the US, but this was next level awful. We waited for more than 20 minutes after get seated before having anyone acknowledge us. No apology, and no service even after multiple attempts to flag someone down just for a drink. This place is TikTok trendy, but really not worth the hype. Food is good, by no means great. read more

I loved this place so much when I went to visit Paris for the first time. The truffle pasta is to die for!! Our waiter was super nice and talked to us quite a bit which we loved! Each different level of the restaurant has a different ambiance and we got to explore around after we ate! read more

Don't have a reservation? It's all good, just wait in line and they will get to you! Usually about an hour or so but well worth it.

Pink Mamma is popular restaurant recently, and the decorations here are stunning. It is better to make reservations in advance, or you will need to wait at least 30mins. Pink Mamma has 5 stairs,you can request the upstairs seat when you make reservations. Food here was great as well. Highly recommend to visit this cute restaurant when you visit Paris. read more

Our server was good. But there were a lot of experiences and interactions that made our visit here mediocre at best, and that's being generous. We knew we would have to stand in line for about two hours because we couldn't get a reservation on time so we were okay with it. (Believe me, the line wasn't even that long and we waited about two hours.) The host was extremely rude and kept ignoring us. He seated three parties before us, one of four, one of three and one of two. I could understand the party of two because it was one less person than ours, however the table we were we seated on, all the way in the corner by the elevator, was only a table for two which is why now I know there was something wrong. Anyhow, we have waited over 2.5 hrs now, we were invested and hungry! We order an appetizer, drinks, and our order all at once because the server appeared busy helping other tables, tables that have sat after us. (We continued to patiently and pleasantly await for service.) Anyhow, we ordered and our appetizer, took like 15-20 minutes to come to the table. We see other tables being delivered their food, tables who had come after us, but we still don't say anything. (We know French people like to enjoy their dinner and thought our server had paced our food since we had an appetizer.) Thirty minutes or so later, the server shared my husband's order is not longer available and if there was another item he'd like. Twelve minutes later his food arrives but my order and my nieces order are nowhere to be seen. It takes like 5minutes for the server to come check on us and realize our order was not complete. At this point, I can't even make eye contact because I'm so upset about their indifference and poor management. Yet, I still didn't say anything at all. Ten minutes later our order is delivered. Pasta (La fameuse pâte à la truffe) was dry and harder than al dente. Almost like they rushed the order (I wonder what gave me this impression, ) Anyhow, we continue to enjoy each other's company and still trying to make the best of it. Niece and I then go to restroom but not before telling my husband to please order a créeme brûlée. Here comes more waiting, apparently we still hadn't learned our lesson Long story short, no I do not recommend this place nor would I ever go back, even if I was paid to go back to this restaurant I wouldn't. I've only shared facts so make what you will about why we were blatantly overlooked. read more

Everything was amazing! Atmosphere was fun, beautiful and far beyond basic. Make sure you make a reservation.
