I actually came around 7:45pm on a Friday night. Big store's pizza place just closed so I had to find an alternative. Becareful on the drive in, the driveway is full of huge potholes. Ordered a Hawaiian pizza, it's what I always do because my daughter loves pineapples. The lady said 20 mins. Ok cool no problem. I sat in my car as it was pretty chilly outside with the gusting wind. As I say I noticed the food truck with the fire wood oven and thought it was cool and his pizza has got to be good. We waited and as more customers came in they all picked up their orders while we continued to wait. She said another 15 mins so sure no big deal. We waited and watched as more customers came in after us ordering and got their food and left. Checked back in and she asked for another 5 mins. As I waited with other customers outside you can hear the staff arguing out loud. After nearly an hour later I finally got my pizza. Came home and we had it and I dunno where to start. I don't need it to be loaded with ingredients but this was like a thick pan pizza with tons of cheese and some pineapples and little pieces of ham. Sauce was good but maybe too much, but with only 2 toppings I would expect this pizza to be nice and crispy and not a soggy cheese pizza. It just wasn't appetizing. My wife decided to skip dinner after looking at it and I was stuck having to hear about having pizza again the next time.

    My husband & I ate here yesterday while in town. The location is great being right off the bay (my…read morehusband fished while we waited for our food) , there's a nice deck, pool table, fire pit & quiet tunes playing. The service was 5 stars and the main reason for me settling on a generous 4 star review. There was an extremely nice and helpful younger gentleman & girl working. We only got a pizza. The pizza was good but not great flavor wise. It was massive in size though. The homemade ranch dressing was excellent and the simple offering of ranch to go with the pizza spoke right to my heart!! I hate to be reading about a rude and negative owner that same day. I'm Glad we missed him. He's lucky to have the staff that he had there yesterday as they made an average food experience an overall great one.

    It was the start of a holiday weekend, so we anticipated having to wait to get in. It was great…read morethat they take your phone number and text you when your table is ready, as we were able to stroll around the neighborhood while we were waiting. The interior of the restaurant is small, but interesting. The pizza making portion of their kitchen is visible from the tables, so you can watch them as they make the pizzas. Our waiter was super friendly, and the service was excellent. We started off our meal with the fried mushroom appetizer. Usually, when you order fried mushrooms, you get an entire mushroom dipped in breading and fried. Here the mushrooms are chopped into chunks before breading and frying. It came with both marinara and ranch for dipping sauces. We loved having the smaller chunks, because if you've ever eaten fried mushrooms, you know that when you bite into them , the juice can sear your mouth. By using smaller chunks, it was much easier to eat, especially when piping hot. We were surprised that they didn't carry banana peppers as a topping for pizzas, but other than that, our pizza was fabulous! We deliberately bought a larger pizza than we needed, because we were looking for leftovers. The pizza heated up well the next day! We would highly recommend visiting Mama Teresa's!

But as I was looking at the photos of the pizza, I was trying to understand why the rating was so high. It honestly just looked like pretty standard pizza, so I couldn't quite figure out the angle. But then our meat lovers pie came to the table and I understood. I can't quite describe to you what made this pizza unique, but there was something different about it. I think it might simply be that the crust was airy. Whatever it was, I really enjoyed it. Granted, that magic flavor tended to dissipate as the pizza sat and got a bit soggier, but I still really enjoyed it. My wife ordered chicken parm and she really loved it, but I thought the sauce was a bit on the watery side. Either way, I'm happy we finally got the chance to visit, as we've had Mama Teresa's bookmarked for a while now.

Unfortunately they didn't have it and I had to settle. Sweltering hot Saturday at 4pm. Party of 2. We chose a table outside with a view of the water. Unfortunately it also allowed the biting flies to torture the poor service dog that was with us. And also it was hot. Sooo hot! We placed our orders for the shrimp basket and shrimp tacos. I requested fries but received grilled. Still tasty. And last time I was automatically served sweet potato fries (I fed the seagulls) but this time I was given a choice of fries. I chose regular fries. There were NO seagulls this time to feed my leftovers to. (Sad face) So we arrived at 4pm Drinks delivered at 4:20 Meals at 4:30 The LSU game was on so we were not in a rush. My only complaints were that the restroom wasn't tidy. Service is kinda slow. Even the covered room is open air (so HOT!) The selection of Ts and tanks had changed and I missed the seagulls. lol
