Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

I enjoy going to Mamma's. Pizza is good, not great but very good. All other menu items are good especially if you enjoy the occasional goulash. Best in Omaha!! Good food ... good atmosphere...a winner!

Great pizza and onion rings. Made a big mistake ordering the wings. The quality of the wings were very bad. Buy the pizza and bring home tanners/oscars wings on the way home.

I have ate mama's pizza for over 10 years and i must say that something has changed! The crust was thin, little cheese and flavor as well. Service was marginal at best. Unsure what happened to our favorite pizza place but it has been officially replaced by Mangia's! Hate to leave you Mama's but you have failed.

i have to confess, i went back to Mama's for more pizza and finished the last of it for lunch today and i'm sad now. i just really love their original hamburger pizza. its perfect. its crust is perfect, its toppings are perfect. it also reheats perfect. with my spotty childs memory i THOUGHT we had the pizza from here before, but unlike the other places i do remember going i don't know if it was purely takeout or if Mama's existed from the 1970's on and i am confusing it with another place. all i know is i love this pizza and its so close to my new place i just don't care. its also really affordable.

I admit it. I don't LOVE pizza. And, when DO I want pizza, I'm typically whipping up my own magic, on a grill, out in the backyard with beer in hand so I can make it to my exact specifications. Nonetheless, sometimes a girl's gotta have pizza (actually, a girl's companions gotta have pizza) and not have to cook, in which case Mama's is one of our "go to" places in Omaha. OK, so slightly odd at first that all of the ingredients are placed on the sauce, on the crust and the cheese is on top until you start eating the 18-lb comb slice and realize there's a method to the madness. Also slightly odd that they slice the large pizza into squares, but when you're a non-crust eater like me, super happy that they do the kindergarten cutting situation. The cheese baked atop will keep all of that goodness IN rather than pulling off with every bite so that you're left with a half a slice of sauced up bread, so I totally get it. I recommend starting off with the onion rings (battered, not breaded) and springing for the house sauce (which is some fatty, garlicky, creamy delicious). The rings come out piping hot, so be careful and try not to burn your taste buds off. Depending on how busy it is, your food might be delivered to the table or your number might be called at the counter. West O location doesn't have the same ambiance (and by ambiance, I remember 20 years ago when the Saddle Creek location had carpeted walls), but the service is good, the food is solid and the prices are not unexpected. One order of onion rings to feed a family of 10 with a side of house sauce, one medium combo pizza and two sodas for our lunch for three - slightly less than $20 without tip.

Very disappointed that my salad had ham in it like seriously it's a house salad not a fat salad.

I'm new to the Omaha area and live near this place. I thought I'd give it a shot as I've tried a few different pizza shops and have been disappointed (Zios..blah, Big Fred's...meh just ok). To my surprise, this was actually a pretty good pizza! I mean, not the absolute best pizza I've ever had but crust was good, sauce was a little bland, toppings and cheese were awesome. By far one of the best pizzas I've found in Omaha thus far. Would definitely go back. Ordered carryout, they told me would be ready in 20 mins, picked up in 17. Can't say boo to anything. All was good! Kudos Mama's will be back.
(4)Toni J.
We love mama's pizza and nice to see a home town favorite continue to do a good job. This is our favorite place for good pizza, especially when we have a group of us. They give you plenty of toppings and cheese. The crust is just right, not too thin or thick. This is not a fancy restaurant, as you do go up to the counter to order your food and drink. However they are fast and friendly.
(4)Amy G.
Mama's Pizza is an Omaha classic. I grew up on Mama's pizza on Saddle Creek. I now prefer this location on 156th and Pacific. Service is quick, the restaurant is clean, and they really know how to frost a beer mug! We always get the same thing so I can't speak much to their whole menu but the Mama's Combo is always a good choice for supreme pizza. The Margherita pizza is simple ,as it should be, and very good. The onion rings are probably my favorite part! They are fresh and you can tell they aren't frozen from a bag. A great place for family get togethers and big groups. Lots to choose from on the menu besides pizza as well!
(4)Josh H.
Mama's is definitely and old school family favorite. Wife and I had the all meat pizza and BBQ Chicken. Both were excellent. The only knock on our experience were some of the parents who allowed their kids to act out of control by running around screaming, knocking over the booster seats stacked against the wall, and playing in the middle of the floor (walkway). But, the food was still like it used to be, great! The huge wall size screens with sports was a definite plus. Like a Buffalo Wild Wings, but with pizza!
(4)Riley S.
Hot damn, the service behind the counter is fantastic! Ask for Riles. He will tell you which pizza is just right for you. Don't forget to try the house dressing! I highly recommend the buffalo chicken pizza with bacon.
(5)Shelby S.
Everything about Mama's pizza is DELICIOUS. I live in Los Angeles now but when I come back to Omaha to visit I always stop in! My whole family loves it!:)

We were staying overnight in West Omaha. Looked at Yelp for recommendations, and I should have paid attention to some of the worst ones. We ordered pizza to go on the phone. They had it ready, and kept it warm, but that's as far as it goes. The young girls were busy chatting at the front desk to notice that there were three customers waiting for their takeout. We got bland, tasteless greasy pizza, with a thick, soggy crust. There was too much of everything, except sauce. A medium pie for $22.00 was inedible. We brought it to the front desk clerk, who was excited about getting this pizza. He's 19. I should have gone to Mama's or Griosanti's. There was a heck of a crowd in the restaurant, so somebody likes it, or they don't east the pizza.

Best gluten pizza I've ever had! Very very good. All the reviews for Pudgy's gluten free pizza on yelp (which is pretty darn good) but nothing about Mama's??? Not fair. It actually has a crisp, brown crust that is not very common in gluten free pies. The odd thing is I think their regular pizza is just okay and eating there feels like I'm in a cafeteria more than a restaurant. I'm sure it would be great for a bunch of kids after a baseball or soccer game but a little loud for me. I agree with Patrick, the onions are awesome but my future experiences with Mama's will be getting a gluten free pizza for the wife and onion rings for me.

My wife and I travel a lot, we currently live in Amsterdam, but lived in Omaha most our lives, and had friends from other parts of the world visit us in Omaha, because of this we used to play this game of sorts over the years, it didn't have a name, but this is how it goes. If someone was traveling to Omaha from another country and they had 2 meals, or 4 meals, or whatever in Omaha, where would you send them to eat. Well one place was the Drover. Freaky old interior design, classic steaks, was a hit with friends from Ireland who we had a hard time getting into the restaurant as they were fascinated with the giant trucks in the parking lot. Another was Mexican food, but we always debated where to take people since Mexican food has so many variations. Another one was Pizza. Yes Pizza is everywhere in the world, but for me Omaha pizza is unique. It's hard to put my finger on it. It something about the crust, the sauce, the cheese, maybe the "beef" which is a rare topping (did you know corn is a favorite topping on pizza in many places in the world, come on Nebraska! Corn and Beef would be great together and nothing would say "Nebraska" like that combination!) . I have never quite had anything similar to Omaha Pizza. This type of pizza, which I call "Omaha Style" is produced by old school pizza places in Omaha, specifically Johnny Sortino's, Big Fred, and my favorite (though I like them all) is Mama's. (Sgt Peffers, Zio's, and La Casa I do not consider "Omaha Style", they are something different). I find that both Mama's on Saddle Creek and West Omaha locations to be consistent in quality. I love the sauce, the crust is soft but not doughy (though if you eat in, the crust comes out crisp, but withing 5 minutes or so is soft), the cheese which is put on in slices is kind of crispy. My mother who lives in San Antonio doesn't like pizza, but whenever she would visit us in Omaha would request one meal at Mama's. We have been in Amsterdam almost a year now and have been back to Omaha twice. On those visits back we have eaten at only a handfull of places, and the only two places we ate at both time were Nettie's and Mama's... Oh how I miss Mama's and "Omaha Style Pizza"

We have moved to Omaha from Connecticut which mostly has New York style pizza: thin crust which has been tossed and then baked, often in a wood-fired oven. We were told Mama's was THE best Omaha had, and since we love pizza it was the first we tried. We went to the original Saddle Creek location. We joke about it a lot. The crust tasted like smashed down biscuits. We had each ordered a small. We both brought home more than half. We threw away my husband's but I gave mine to a relative who also was new to Omaha but isn't from the East, thinking that she might have different expectations. Her comment was, "This isn't pizza crust." Re the atmosphere and service, we didn't care as we were there for the pizza. We continue our quest for good pizza in Omaha.

I eat alot of taco's! Best alternative is the Taco pizza and very helpful staff! Good place to watch a game !
(5)Sondra Z.
First the good - really crispy crust on the pizza and the onion rings are yummy. But the service is pretty nonexistent - you order at the counter and once they deliver it to your table don't expect to see them again. My husband thought there wasn't enough sauce on the pizza. It is also a pet peeve of mine when restaurants nickel and dime you. Seriously? 6 bucks for an average sized order of onion rings and you are going to charge for the ranch dressing? An okay place and we would go back if we have a kids sports team party or something like that, but if I'm looking for good food and good service, there are a lot of better options in town.

I have to laugh at some of the other reviews of this place.This is not a 5 star steakhouse and it is not advertised as such either! It's a pizza joint.What were you expecting? It is family friendly,which means there will be kids.Pizza places attract kids,duh.I have never seen them running around.Also,as far as being salty and compared to frozen, I have a low tolerance for both and totally dis-agree with that reviewer.Especially after there was a Zio's reference.I don't care for Zio's pizza. As far as a cafeteria reference,I find it no different than other pizza eateries.Remember it's just pizza.Although they do have several other items on the menu.I just go for the great pizza and appetizers. Now for the good from me.I love the pizza,onion ring's,fried pickle's and especially the WAFFLE fries.The place is always packed and the take-out line is always busy! I eat at nearby Hector's frequently and when we look over at Mama's, it is always packed.They must be doing something right. I also don't mind serving myself but sometimes they do wait on you.It must depend on the staff.Don't know and don't care.Not a deal breaker.We'll be back! Keep doing what you're doing! P.S. I live in Fremont and have no connection's to this place.Just like telling it how it is from a working man's perspective.

Great lunch today at Mama's
(5)Benjamin S.
I love this place. I only get back to Omaha once or twice a year these days but ALWAYS make sure to stop by here. I think the pizza is some of the best I have ever had. Plentiful toppings, great sauce, and a thin crust is a perfect combination. Also, if your really hungry, order their onion rings. You won't be dissapointed!
(5)Andrea W.
We had a large family get-together at Mama's pizza and loved it. The atmosphere was perfect for our large family including children ages 4 & up. The pizza was yummy and everyone enjoyed it. Will definitely go here again next time were are in the area!
(4)Kelly V.
It isn't good. We didn't get anything special: cheese pizza, fried mushrooms, and wings to go. Can't comment on atmosphere and service--just the food.
(1)Eric B.
We love the pizza and are constantly amazed by the fantastic customer service! This place is always busy and the staff is always friendly and helpful! Seriously class act customer service!
(5)Jaysee K.
Just got a mini 4 cheese pizza with white sauce today for lunch. It was wonderful! The cheese was melted just right and the crust was flaky and good. It was only $4.66 after taxes! I'm a happy camper :)

Original review with photos can be found here: omahapizzareview.com/201… Drive past the strip mall at 157th and Pacific in Omaha on a Friday or Saturday night and you're sure to see the parking lot full of cars. Two big names in Omaha dining have set up shop in west Omaha. One being a fine Mexican restaurant named Hector's and the other being Mama's Pizza. Mama's Pizza is a family owned business that started more than 25 years ago at their original location on Saddle Creek Road. They now operate two restaurants, the original and the west location in Millard. We arrived about 5pm on a Saturday night and the place was nearly packed already. The west location is a pretty big place with a lot of seating, but on this night a large number of tables were reserved which made for some tight dining and some frustrated customers. More on that later. At Mama's, you place and pay for your order at the front counter then slide to the right to gather your drinks, plates, silverware, napkins, condiments, etc. The menu is on boards above and behind the counter. Tonight we ordered onion rings, a veggie pizza and a pepperoni and Italian sausage pizza. We were issued a number and then took one of the last three tables left. Unfortunately for us, the remaining tables that weren't reserved were located right near the counter and the long line that was forming. There are few things worse than staring at the backsides of strangers while at the same time being on display to a bunch of hungry and frustrated people. In addition, the row of tables that is closest to the counter is just too close to the counter. Many times people passing between the line at the counter and our table would have to skinny up and move a chair just to get past, making an uncomfortable location even more so. The upside to being so close the the line was being able to hear people complain about not having anyplace to sit. We heard more than one group decide to try another place to eat. To their credit, the staff at Mama's did free up a few of the reserved tables to accommodate the guests that did decide to stay. That of course could mean that if you reserved a table, it might be filled when you got there. A place this busy needs to have a waiting area for patrons to hang until tables open up to ensure they have a place to sit after ordering their pizza. Our onion rings were served quicker than it took me to write the last paragraph. Our number was called over the PA system and up to the counter I went. There were a ton of rings. We could and should have just gone with a half order for the two of us. They were warm but not hot, so they might have been kept at the ready as opposed to being dropped when an order comes in. I could be wrong about this (1. see UPDATE below). I'll now use what we decided was our word of the night: average. While the onion rings were plentiful, they weren't a standout in any way. We've been lucky enough to eat the best onion rings in the world at a place called Kalypso Island Bar & Grill (formerly called Zelo's) on the north shore in Hanalei on the island of Kauai, so we are a bit spoiled. Mama's rings were just average. After eating too many onion rings, our number was once again called as our pies were ready. A quick trip to the counter produced some pretty good looking pizza. The pizzas are served on a plastic pizza tray that has many raised bumps to keep the crust from getting soggy. Mama's crust is of medium thickness - a little more than 1/4" thick. A quick glance through the kitchen doors showed me they use a pizza sheeter similar to this one as well as a dough docker to control bubbles while cooking. Mama's website says they use Roto-Flex rotating stone deck oven. I read this before we went to dinner that night, so I was expecting a crust that would resemble something cooked in a traditional deck oven - something chewy, slightly crispy and slightly charred on the bottom. Characteristics that you get when cooking on a blazing hot stone. That's not what we received. Their crust was rather doughy and surprisingly hard, almost impossible to cut without the use of a knife. I know, I know, you don't eat pizza with a fork and knife, but it was piping hot right out of the oven. Anyway, to me the crust resembled what I've come to expect being produced with a conveyor oven. Their website says the rotary oven is the only one of its kind in the midwest, so perhaps they only have one of these and that one is at the Saddle Creek Road location. Until I'm told otherwise, I'm going stick with my observations and experience here and say the pizza at the West Omaha location is cooked in a conveyor oven. (2. see UPDATE below) I ran out of room.

The pizza here is gross. Salty, amateur crust, can-flavored sauce....I could go on and on. This is strictly a review for this location since I've heard the original Mama's is better. I also give them 2 stars because the service is decent. I would recommend that if you want to go to a "local" pizza place that taste way better, try Zio's.
(2)Bill M.
Make sure you get the onion rings! We tried 3 different pizzas to share, they were all good. Also had lasagna and chicken strips which were also good. Be prepared to serve yourself, because that's how it's done. It's actually nice to serv myself, I don't have to wait on a server.
(4)Patrick W.
I dropped by this Mama's Pizza again over the weekend and its just as I remember it. The pizza is good and the crust is never soggy. We again ordered the pepperoni and green pepper and we weren't disappointed. I think that this pizza may be even better re-heated than it is fresh out of the oven. While this place was always my favorite as a kid, it pales in comparison to some of the new joints Pitch and Dante's. The reason we actually picked Mama's was not the pizza but the onion rings. They are the best in town.
(4)Tom S.
Nothing special and you have to go to the counter, order, pay and wait for your food at your table. kind of a pain if you expect to have more then one beverage. Pizza is pretty close to convenient store pizza but the hamburgers aren't bad.
(2)Susan C.
I love this place!!! It is a little loud and really gets crowded on the weekends but I know what I'm getting into if I go then! I usually go there with my daughter and grandkids for lunch. Get there early and it is really quiet! The kids love the arcade games and it gives us time for a nice visit. The staff couldn't be nicer!!! I like waiting on myself because I don't have to tip and it's a little more affordable. The gluten free pizza is a lifesaver if you are gluten intolerant or have a gluten allergy. We have never been 'glutened' there and that is pretty unusual as often as we go there. Overall they do a great job!!!!!!
