Best italian food in NC, Avoid Friday/Sat nights, Service was spot on 9/13/2008

My wife and me have been loyal customers at Mama's for over 3 years now. It takes us 30 min. to get there from our house and well worth the drive. The food at this place is spot on everytime. I ordered the chicken bianco which was to die for, (a favorite of mine,) and my wife stayed close in on her limb and ordered the penne vodka. The food was fabulous as always. the atmosphere was very family oriented and appropriate, JUST DON'T GO HERE ON WEEKENDS, for the place WILL be packed, I reccomend eating here between noon and five on weekdays. Sunday brunch here is a well kept secret that nobody should miss out on. Another thing I think is important to mention is the service. Our waiter, John, delivered fast and friendly service and the guy that brought our food out, (whom closely resembled a new-aged Harry Potter,) was extreamly friendly, fast, yet delicate - not pausing for a moment to offer both my wife and me parmesean and fresh black pepper before asking if we needed anything. The food delivery guy was so refreshing and charming in fact that my wife just had to compliment him on his good job. It's surprising how much of a difference fast and friendly service makes, (I'm a tipper so I keep a close eye on these things and how MR's employees are willing to go that extra mile :). Anyways, this place is well worth checking out and I'm sure everything on the menu is authentic and the prices are quite fair. Pros: Great authentic italian food, good atmosphere, fair prices, excellent staff Cons: Can be VERY crowded on Friday/Sat nights, I mean elbows to elbows while waiting for table more
