Mama Santa's has the best food in Little Italy, hands down. The homemade pastas are amazing. The pizza is very good and the wine is good and cheap. But, it's a neighborhood place, and it's definitely not for everyone. Some people expect a wider selection of beers, and a brighter interior. I like the ""home-like"" atmosphere of Mama Santa's. But some people won't appreciate it. The waitresses get busy as does the kitchen and people dining there should expect it to get busy and to do a bit of waiting. If that's not your scene, I suggest you try a chain or a different restaurant. But, if you're looking for fantastic food at an inexpensive price, and you don't mind the wait, consider Mama Santa's. It's not highly rated because of the atmosphere, but because of it's incredible food and value.
Pros: Excellent food, Inexpensive, Large portions
Cons: parking, busy on weekends
