Little Mama's is probably my favorite date night spot. It's romantically lit, intimate, and the FOOD is seriously to die for. My husband and I went for our dating anniversary where we started with an appetizer, he got a salad, and we both got pasta dishes. Our server basically guided me through what her favorites were and her recommendations were superb. We will definitely be back again!

Visited Little Mana's before the Nutcracker. We were seated immediately and received Excellent service. Their bread is fresh, very light and served warm. Their restaurant was crowded but not too loud. We ordered the Sunday pasta special with rigatoni, 3 Italian sausage, and a large meatball with meat sauce. We also ordered the lasagna which was very good. The food portions were huge and the food was all prepared fresh and served hot. Highly recommend!

I tried Little Mama's Italian after a long day of work. Had an after work event & decided to try something new via Uber Eats. I was hungry but I had plenty leftovers. The food was hot when delivered. I ordered polenta, lasagna, and tiramisu. It was my first time trying polenta. I still love grits more, but I enjoyed it. I only had appetite for a few fork fulls of tiramisu, but it held up to the next day. It was rich and creamy the way I like it. I have to dine in to get the whole experience.

Went for my birthday dinner last night with my family who were visiting from Massachusetts. They were nervous to have Italian food in the South. It was impeccable. Our server Jonathan we could not recommend enough he was attentive and on the mark for everything we requested. All food was absolutely phenomenal.

Every time we go back the food tastes better! The best Cinnamon roll you'll ever have... Our family loves the chopped salad We order a few items and share them. Tried the lasagna for the first- better than my Mom's... The Penne à la vodka with homemade pasta and the penne chicken & broccoli are two of the staples. Combo eggplant/chicken parmigiana was great and then add in the Sunday sauce with the garlic rolls it make a perfect Sunday meal. They never disappoint.

My friend & I dined here for lunch after it being on my list for months - it did not disappoint! We went without making a reservation & we were seated right away. Our server was also running the bar but she was so great at her job she managed it well. She was very knowledgeable about the menu & was able to make recommendations for the mozzarella made in-house. First we had the complimentary bread service. Next we decided to split a Caesar salad, which was super fresh & delicious. Then we opted for Stracciatella which is shreds of Fior Di Latte w/ Cream served w/ Lemon Zest, Pistachio, Evoo + Peppadew Peppers stuffed w/ Goat Cheese + Mascarpone & it was absolutely amazing! We also split Fresh Fettucine al Burro w/ Truffle Oil, Breadcrumbs, Parmesan, Black Pepper + Chicken which was divine. The prices were very reasonable & the portions were huge in my opinion. The restaurant had an intimate vibe, it was not bright inside or super loud which made lunch very enjoyable. We both can't wait to go back!

Stopped by with some friends to celebrate, and we had a great time! Our server was super friendly and made sure our waters and bread kept coming, which was awesome. The mozzarella app with peppadew peppers (stuffed with goat cheese and mascarpone) was amazing - just the right touch of sweetness. The pasta portions were solid for the price, too. Plus, it's a great spot if you're vegetarian - lots of options! Definitely recommend for small gatherings or even a cozy date night.
