Mama T’s Italian Eatery - Elkhorn

The staff were very friendly and inviting. The food was fabulous! The portions are very generous and tasty. We will definitely return for another good meal.

We were in town for a race and needed pasta. Random search led us here and it did not disappoint. Very friendly staff and the food was phenomenal! Next time we are in town we will be coming back!

We heard very good reviews of this spot since new owners took it over quite some time ago it was more of a family diner breakfast spot before changing to Italian. My wife and I have now eaten here twice for dinner and I had a Chicken Cesar Salad for lunch by myself once. The entrees have all been very good as have the service and prices. I did have one disappointing issue when we were having a late dinner one Saturday. I knew they closed at 9 but I did TT want to impose or be rushed so I pulled up front and tan in and asked if they were still seating and said I didn’t want to hold any of the staff it was 8:35. One of the owners said we were fine and to come on in. We ordered and both had a cocktail. Our meals were delivered at about 9:05 and I asked my waiter for a second Coors Light. Five minutes later the female owner came over and told me she couldn’t serve me another beer since it was after their official closing hour and she could lose her license. Sorry to be long winded but I just wanted a beer to enjoy with my meal I’d just been served. I might add that I’m not exactly a young punk I’m 67 year old retired fellow that lives in town. Whatever. I’ll be back eventually but as solid a place it is there’s 50 other places I like in the area as well. She made a mistake in handling the situation and it’s probably cost her a few return visits but we’ll eventually be back.

Today we went for lunch. It was wonderful!We dined in. My hubby had his favorite Spagetti and Italian Sausage and I had Cheese stuffed Ravioli with Marinara Sauce. We had the “Shared” cheesecake for dessert.The service was great.

We stopped here on a Saturday night around 7:00 PM on our way back from Illinois. It's a cute little place tucked into a strip mall, but nice atmosphere inside. The place was pretty busy, including a nearby table with about 14 people, but we were greeted and served really quickly. We actually had 3 different servers come to our table and ask if anyone had come to take our drink order yet. Everyone was very friendly. The food was excellent. I had a 10 thin crust pizza with three toppings, and it was some of the best I've had in years. Generous portion of stringy cheese, big chunks of flavorful Italian sausage, and the sauce was just right. It wasn't a cracker thin crust which I do like , but it was very crisp. I'd compare it more to a traditional crust. We had garlic bread too which was yummy, and served with some warmed marinara sauce for dipping. I liked that the garlic bread wasn't soaked and dripping with melted butter, there was just the right amount on it. My husband had fettucine alfredo with sauteed shrimp, and he said it was marvelous. They were very generous with the shrimp, too. Despite the place being pretty crowded, we were served our food extremely fast. Everything was reasonably priced, including cocktails and wine. Our bill was $55 for an entree, a 10 3-topping pizza, an order of garlic bread, one cocktail and two glasses of wine. My only regret is that we live nowhere near Elkhorn so who knows when we might be able to come back. : I'll add my public service announcement: we are old school and old! and give/leave cash tips, and we have found most servers to be VERY appreciative of that. I would suggest a cash tip whenever possible when dining out. I carry a lot of small bills in my purse for that very reason LOL Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
