What Peter Johnson doesn't like about Mama Lucia:
The waiters were very nice and attentive but that?s the only good thing I can say. Food was mediocre at best. Alfredo is supposed to be creamy, not taste like dishwater. 9 people and we got our meals 2 at a time. One person didn?t even get theirs until everyone else was almost done.

What Tabitha Martin likes about Mama Lucia:
Absolutely delicious food, with a great atmosphere and excellent service from Nate. This is awesome and authentic Italian food!

Despite a few negative reviews, the overall consensus of the restaurant is that it offers absolutely delicious food with great atmosphere and excellent service. While some complain about long wait times, inedible salads, and overcooked meals, others have praised the restaurant for its authentic Italian food, friendly staff, and family-friendly atmosphere. The wood-fired oven pizza is particularly recommended. Despite some hiccups, this restaurant seems to be a hit for those looking for quality Italian dishes in a casual setting.

It was ok. I had high expectations based on a previous review. Appetizers and salad were tasty but entrees were bland. Servers were pleasant enough.
