Was in Niagara Falls NY for a baseball tournament. The hotel my parents stayed at the staff recommended La Cucina Di Mamma which was next door to the hotel. The food quality was outstanding. Everything was cooked to perfection. The portions are generous. The menu is very simple but enough to chose from. Atmosphere is very nice. White table cloths and etc.. Staff is excellent. Waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable. The cook checks on how the food quality is with us. It’s a very small establishment, 8-10 tables. Only the waiter and cook. All food is prepared fresh on site. If your in Niagara Falls NY, definitely stop there. It’s absolutely worth it and the prices are reasonable. They play Italian music on a record player.
Although this restaurant has a small space, don’t let it fool you or deter you. It was worth the wait. Each member of our family (of 4) tried something different. From the fresh, hand rolled gnocchi to the perfectly cooked and sauced chicken parmesan, everything about our meal was amazing. I highly recommend you take the time to support this hidden treasure if you’re in the Niagara Falls area.
Recent trip to Niagara Falls and tried this wonderful restaurant. The food was excellent, fresh pasta and a sauce that was outstanding. The atmosphere was lovely & a added bonus was Jerry Vale playing on a vinyl record player. Our waiter also couldn't have been more helpful with explaining choices.
The waiter, Greg, and the chef were more than welcoming! We did not have a reservation and they squeezed us in without compromising the reservations they already had in place! We so appreciated it since it had been a very long day for my family. They jumped into action and within seconds arranged for us to dine in! The chef prepared a variety of delicious meals and Greg was spot on in his attentiveness , especially to the small details! We so enjoyed our visit and the old fashion care we were given. The restaurant was homey with sounds of Italian selections playing in the background. A wonderful ambiance with genuine hospitality made for a winning combination! I’d recommend it highly!
I had chicken marsala and a beef vegetable soup. Everything was a delight. Only one wait, but sorry efficient.
What a treat! Small & intimate and great service. Best calamari ever….and we eat it quite a bit. Lasagna & Chicken Parm was fabulous. Soup and bread too. Very authentic Italian. All house made. Only recommendation would be to offer 1/2 size on entries because portions were very generous. It’s now a must whenever we pass through again.
I never really try anything new but I got the Italian rice balls appetizer… and they were amazing our server Greg was so sweet and helpful even with my toddler driving him crazy… the chef Angelo even came out and chatted with us… Plus they gave us literally the best cannolis ever!!!
Our food was absolutely fantastic! Our waiter was friendly and attentive. I never got the young man's name but, he did a great job considering we walked in thirty minutes before close, 2 other patrons walked in after us and still, the food and Service was great! I would definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone looking for authentic Italian food and yummy cannolis for dessert.
gnocchi were amazing - so light and fluffy. Rigatoni in vodka sauce had me wanting to lick the plate.
Pandemic spacing over, they now have nine tables, a waiter and the cook. Food is to die for, generous portions and my putanesca was very tasty. Soup or salad and dessert were another pleasant surprise. We had a great dinner and had paid more yesterday for grinders to eat in the car.
