Absolutely fantastic from start to stop.
Sara (sp) was our waitress, great service.
Place was packed, still got our food in a somewhat reasonable time.
The breadstix OMG.
Ok I had lasagna and pasta (because they were out of tortellini), lasagna was ohhhhhhh Yummy, the pasta was pretty good and the meatball was fantastic.
Had to get some extra sauce for the lasagna but that's just me.
Did I mention how good those breadstix were, oh my poor belly.
Ok the price was decent cimoared to other places we've been in AZ......overall, best Italian I have had in AZ. Hands down.
Our waitress Sherry was awesome..the bread sticks were hot and amazing..All seven of our meals came out together and steaming hot..been here several times before and never had a bad meal or service.. brought out of town family and they loved it..
Love this restaurant!! They have now added cioppino (seafood stew) to the menu! I am in love! The restaurant is also aligned with many incentive programs: airline miles, Tucson Originals, Open Table. They have a fabulous salad bar and a lunch pasta bar. If you eat lunch there often, they have a punch card to get a free meal. It is well worth visiting.....and visiting often. I celebrated my 69th birthday there with friends.
We always love coming here and this time had out of town company. I have never had a bad meal in this place in the 18 years I've lived in Tucson. We did have a minor bump on this visit. I had made reservation, but when we got there they did not have the reservation. Somebody dropped the ball, but as luck would have it they were not that busy and we were seated in no time flat.
First time visit and we just happened to stumble on it while visiting Tucson. The food was fantastic, price was beyond reasonable and the service exceptional. We ended up there on Mother’s Day eve of all days, the place was packed but the wait wasn’t bad at all.
Great food as always. Service was awesome. It is my go to place for my Mother’s Day dinner.
The food was extraordinary and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend this location for a unique, but delicious, restaurant experience. Support local!!!
Delicious food and a great staff and service makes for a wonderful meal and experience
I've been coming here to eat for almost 40 years.
That is generations of family, and quality dining.
I highly recommend it.
Casual. The food was excellent! The place was a little run-down, but the food and the service made up for it. We will definitely return soon!
I can't get enough of this place!! Joes Special is a must and the bread sticks are divine.
Excellent food and service. Would definitely go back. Nice salad/soup bar.
Awesome!! Food is always great but the lunch buffet is superb!! The Italian Wedding soup is to die for!!
We've been going here for years and I love the family atmosphere! I have recently started trying the 3rd generation menu and so far it hasn't disappointed! I will continue to bring my family here and look forward to the changes that we continue to see. The bar has been updated and most recently we noticed the bathrooms also. The new chef/owner is definitely modernizing things. Keep up the great work!
Recommended by a friend, this place was great! Classic Italian tablecloths and mural, delicious food. We got the calamari starter (with house sauce), Joe's special, spaghetti with meatballs, and a cannoli for dessert (all pictured). The owner was very gracious as well. Highly recommend.
Great local restaurant with a nice menu. I ordered a dish that’s not listed on the menu and the chef was happy to make it. Super nice people.
Highly recommended?
The food was extremely good and the portions were large. Very good value for the money. Neat decor and exceptionally friendly wait staff and manager. Food was served quickly and the manager made a point of coming to our table and introducing himself and checking in on us. We will definitely be back!!
It was a nice time & good food. We tried new and shared with staff was our first time along with it was our Anniversary. Started with the Brushetta (half without cheese), shared a side salad and husband had Joes Style Chicken Parmesian sub noodles for mushrooms (he loved it) and I had Joe Style lasagna (great). Was a bit warm in the back of restaurant however, Sarah was a wonderful server. Would visit again.
The experience we had at Mama Louisa’s was amazing! Sara was unbelievable! She memorized our entire order which was a party of 6. The food was very good and the service was great. The whole experience top notch!
Excellent food, and lots of it. Very good, reasonable prices. Very good service. Limited menu, but still ample choices, great for lunch or dinner. Wish we had one on the north side. Pasta homemade and delicious. Also, great desserts. It's a return place.
Delicious food and great service! We had 13 in our group and the waitress was very attentive to us. The food all came out at a reasonable time and all together so everyone was able to eat together at the same time. Great place for big groups.
2-26-2022- Stopped by today for lunch and it was great. The service is always the best and the food is even better. This spot is a must when in Tucson.
8-6-22- Stopped for lunch and it was great as always. Service was top notch and food was delicious.
My friend & I we're shopping in Tuscan and wanted Italian food. I googled, and Mama's came up, We decided to give it a try. This is absolutely the best Italian food I have eaten in my life! We were both in heaven! I can't wait to go back and plan on letting all my friends know about this incredible place! The service was perfect! Food 100% the best! What a wonderful surprised! Thank you Mama Louisa's!
Just go... ypu WILL NOT be disappointed! I had the Italian Stuffer, homemade sausage, and meatballs in their signature homemade red sauce!
Still a great place to eat. I miss their salad bar so much. I really really wish they'd bring it back. If they did we'd probably eat here more often. They do seem to be a bit pricey however, their food is very authentic and delicious. They provide an adequate serving size as well.
