Mama Mia Pizzeria, Fresno CA

The food is really good. One thing to consider if you're considering ordering through DoorDash - The projected delivery time will very VERY likely be 20-25 minutes later than the app says. This is because Mama Mia Pizzaria employees are marking the order ready for pickup about 20-25 minutes before they're able to actually have it ready for pickup. Causing the driver to stand around losing money waiting on an order they said was ready that was not in fact ready.

If Mama Mia Pizzaria doesn't like his review then they need to explain to their employees that they need to stop marking the order ready for pickup so far ahead of time. You end up with that tiny lobby full of doordashers standing around and they're all annoyed that their hourly wage is being decimated. Many of them unassign the orders causing an even longer delay because now DD has to find another driver.

It's quite simple. Mark the order ready for pickup about 3-4 minutes before it will be completely bagged up and ready for pickup. This town has a ton of drivers. One will be there very fast, the food won't be getting cold. But if you keep this routine up, then the food will be getting cold because drivers will stop accepting orders from there.

Incredible pizza, nice staff, and if you're gluten free they also have one of the best gluten free pizzas in the whole state. Love it.

Ordered a pasta dish (tortellini Mama Mia) and it was just dripping in straight oil. I got very sick.

You have to try the Calzones! Some of the best in the Valley and I've tried many across the country but Mama Mias is awesome.

Whether it's dine in or take out all the food I've tried had been delicious. Foods always ready fast. Love their hot wings!

We have been going to Mama Mia's on occasion for years.and almost always its for the calzones. Of the last 3 orders we've put in for veggie calzones, only one of them was really good. The other two, not so much. One was mostly cheese. The one we had last night the crust was undercooked and it was loaded with onions. I hate to say it, but I think after 34 years as an occasional customer -> we are done here.

There is a reason people eat at McDonald's even though it might be McShIt food: the ingredients and flavors are consistent. You know what you're going to get, even if you don't particularly care for it. Not so here. The end product is inconsistent.

I never like giving a review like this and I've always found the staff at this place to be kind and courteous. I wish them all well and hope they manage to get on track.

Worst pizza I have ever had in my life. I felt like I was dying afterward. They must’ve put liquid cement in my pizza. They couldn’t pay me any sum of money to get me to eat their food again!

Even though the food is delicious. The place is disgusting. Needs to be severely wiped down and cleaned. Disorganized. Cashier was not enthusiastic. They need to remove all the tables inside.so crammed in there. Boxes of drinks just open everywhere. There is grime on the equipment and machines. It's such a small place, how hard can it be to clean it and keep it clean?

Spectacular food and they are so nice. I had the calzone, hot Italian and pizza it was sooo good. Just went to their new location in Tower last night and it's cute and same great food.
Update: eaten here 15 more times and they have never disappointed and served awesome food.

Beat Italian good I’ve ever had, I am a traveler. Italian stallion, calazone, pizza and pastas are so satisfying and filling. I will come back over and over when I am n town here. Thank you for making great food

I Love Mama mia’s. It’s a small family owned business and the food is great. However, I do notice a slight difference with the taste now.
I became a customer in 2019. Hot Italian stallion is what I normally get. The dish would normally cost about $13 there. Every year, I noticed prices increased.which is a loyal costumer, I didn’t mind the 75 cent- $1 increase. But I wouldn’t be able to afford it bi monthly anymore so cutting back was financially necessary
I called yesterday to order my regular, only to find out it’s $20 a bowl now: ’ (and that’s not even including tax I canceled my order because I can just learn to make the Italian stallion if that’s the case. If I eat here, it probably would have to be once a year.
I hope there isn’t another increase anytime soon.

Can’t believe i just discovered this place. Can’t believe no friends or family ever told me about this place. I’m born and raised in Fresno and this is the best pizza in Fresno hands down. We got the combination; each and every piece of meat was like gourmet sliced fresh from a deli. It was unbelievable. I cant say enough.

Best Italian food this side of Italy. You can't beat their Italian Stallion or lasagna. Meatballs are great to have as a protein side. My adult kids devour the fried ravioli apps. Great for catering too!

​My husband and I have only ordered from this place twice. During the first order, staff attempted to cover their mistake by adding extra vegetables to the pizza to conceal the pieces of ham they "accidentally" included without our knowledge. I am unfortunately unable to consume pork due to having stomach related issues. We recently decided to give this place another try as we believe in helping local stores/restaurants especially during this time. It took nearly 1 hour to make two 10" pizzas. One of the two pizzas did not include the additional toppings per request (and paid in advance), and in order for them to correct the error on their end, we had to exchange the pizzas. While waiting, the owner of the restaurant was unapologetic and observed throwing money at his staff yelling out loud, "Who wants this! Get your 50, get your 20. " Two of the female staff were also seen making alcoholic drinks behind the counter. Mama Mia is definitely a restaurant that lacks care for its customers and reputation. ​

Today I was craving pizza, decided to go with Mama Mia, haven't had them for over 5 months. I ordered my usual Philly steak pizza, the price went up from I last remember, very pricy considering it was only a medium for $27, price jumped like $5. The pizza tasted very different, in a very disgusting way. The crust underneath was burnt. The ingredient are not fresh, the cheese was not the same, it tasted fake. Even the way they made the Philly steak was not the same, it was flavorless. Everything about this pizza was off. The crust took 1/3 of the pizza, so only 2/3 was ingredients. After tonight, I will probably never ordered here again, not for a $27 medium pizza. Better off to spend that $ on a piece of nice steak from the grocery store. Also, the ranch was not thick, it was very water down. I've never had water down ranch before, but here. What's going on? !

What a bad experience. It was my first time visiting Mama Mia and this will be the last. There is no coming back. Took my order wrong, Prices are high sky, Manager is so rude.
All I can say is.it's not worth it.
Do not waste your money. Freaking rude people.

Haven't visited in over a year food was good but not the same as I rember. Maybe it was the over oily angel hair pasta or the luck warm not fresh ie made the same day rolls. Still a dam good meal for the price and portions. Parking is ample since almost all the buisness in the plaza have closed. Area is safe. Indoor dinning is very minimal overall well worth the visit.

Very good pizza, but $6 for just over a cup of salad is ridiculous. Order was delivered by Uber.

I eat here as a regular. Mama Mia’s is good. I think the pizza is too cheesy a lot lately. Don’t matter what pizza we get there by the slice or a full order too cheesy & Too greasy. If you want to feel sleepy after you eat this is the spot to eat at. Pastas are good, chicken is good. Make sure you ask for a fresh batch of chicken sometimes I’ve been given chicken that wasn’t cooked fresh.

Ordering was quick and easy and the pizza was amazing! You can honestly taste the quality of the ingredients! Thank you Mama Mia!
