Mama Ricotta's

Charlotte's Most Authentic Italian

  • Authentic Italian
  • Casual Dining
  • From scratch kitchen

For nearly 15 years, Mama Ricotta's has been the Italian restaurant of choice for thousands of Italian food lovers.

Owner Frank Scibelli, raised in the grand tradition of hearty family dinners, dreamed of bringing the Italian dishes he loved to Charlotte residents. Despite growing from a small restaurant to a 200 seat, award-winning establishment, the quality of Mama Ricotta's food and service has remained.

Now, in addition to the restaurant, Mama Ricotta's can also count more than 250 employees and a multi-faceted catering division with a customer list that reads like the Who's Who? of Charlotte. Mama Ricotta's serves traditional, authentic Italian dishes in an inviting setting where everyone feels welcome.

Editorial Review for Mama Ricotta's – by Geoff Lutton

In Short
True Italian-style pizzas, a stylish atmosphere and the signature penne alla vodka, penne with sauteed pancetta in a spicy tomato sauce with pepper vodka, keep Mama Ricotta's filled with people seeking a good, inexpensive meal. Other standards, which can be ordered in family-sized portions, include linguine with clam sauce, angel hair with tomato basil, lasagna, and rigatoni amatriciana.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We have been here many times, especially before going to a show downtown. The food is very good and plentiful. We also like the wine flights. The bread is especially good (resist the urge to eat too much because the meal is going to be great and plentiful). We enjoy the casual elegance, both inside and on the patio.

went there for lunch at 12.30 on a monday and the place was jammed packed..service fair considering the crowd..prices very innexpensive and good portions..had chicken scarpello over spagetti..tasty and good portions..bread was 1 bisquit and 3 hard rolls laced with a touch of olive oil..definetly a popular place and worth going back providing you have time at lunch or diner to wait a little..

Pros: inexpensive good portions..

Cons: extremly busy

Standard Italian fare that's a far cry from your basic pasta in red sauce.  See the full editorial review.
