Homely restaurant with amazing food and excellent service. Traditional Italian menu with lots of favourites rarely found elsewhere. The Parma pizza and cannelloni are exceptional!
Really nice place. Great food. Friendly staff. It was their competition who was closed recommended this place. Thank you
Such a lovely restaurant. The waiters always look so smart and are so friendly and efficient. Lovely and delicious traditional italian dishes with the best asparagus and baby chicken in town. Little touches like the complimentary foccacia and the home made sangria make it truly memorable.
Nice Italian old fashion restaurant.
My favourite is the schnitzel. The pizza is also fantastic. If you want you can also sit outside on a terrace. The service is good. The waiter's are friendly and helpful.
Excellent meal, once again. We have been going to La Mama for almost 20 years and the food is as better as ever. The waiters are so friendly and provide great service. Great local business and well worth supporting.
Classic hospitality that is completely lovely combined with phenomenal cuisine and a beautifully relaxed atmosphere. Thank you for being a gem for more than half of my lifetime. Hoping for many many more years of special occasions celebrated at La Mama.
Staff and management that sincerely care. While the restaurants will check on you because the manual say so.
One can tell that they care from the bottom of thier heart.
Food was of a standard that far surpassed any expectations I had.
Easily the best authentic Italian kisses we ever enjoyed.
What a hidden gem! It is so quaint and lovely with the best service I've ever seen! The waiters are dressed handsomely and are pleasant and accommodating. The food is out of this world good. Definitely a must for a date night.
An old Joburg mainstay that's been around for decades. Despite my table of 10 being the rowdiest guests last night, we were still treated with the utmost courtesy and the food - as always - was fantastic; made with care and pride, hearty and delicious. I hope La Mama is around for many decades more.
Homely place with delicious food and secure parking. very friendly waiters and good table settings. may want took at their wine list a little and maybe a tap beer option.
Excellent food. Nice ambience. Wonderful attentive waiter, Joseph, remembered us from our first visit some 2 months ago and returned my wife's sunglasses which she left there during that visit!
Amazing food, lovely atmosphere, authentic no pretense. Consistently excellent service and outstanding food. This gem of a restaurant deserves all the support. It is just divine!
A brilliant little Italian restaurant that my family have been coming to for decades. The food is great and the service is always warm. We love supporting a local SA business
One will never make a mistake to dine at La Mama! I know them for many years and their meals have always been perfect. Long live La Mama and it's staff. Kind regards, Fritz
This place is a treasure. Seriously, you need to try it. Terribly authentic (though I notice the elderly couple who've run it since its beginnings in Hillbrow 50 years ago aren't around so much these days) with reliable waiters and menu straight out of their Italian hearts. Their zabaglione is from
