Owned & Operated by the Spina Family since 1980. Menu was created by two brothers wanting to replicate the feelings and experiences they had as children around the family dining table of an Italian household, so they designed a menu based upon the meals they often ate at their dining room table, centered around their favorite food, pizza.
Mama’s offers a complete selection of Italian mainstays, pizza, pasta, heros, salads, appetizers, and desserts. Come hungry or willing to share because the servings are large just like they were at Mama’s table.
There are four beautifully designed locations in and around the Tucson area. All offering dine in, to-go, catering and delivery service.

In a nut shell I would only suggest getting pizza, everything else is questionable

Walked in during low volume around 3 PM. Every table was sticky and messy. Used cups, boxes, napkins, and straw wrappers littered any table that wasn’t in use. Two separate people walked up to the chef and pleaded for a wet rag to wipe down their tables themselves. The cook evidently didn’t give them one and they both stood waiting for another couple minutes and had to ask the server AGAIN.

I wish I took a photo but my phone was in the car. It was the 5th time I picked up a Togo pizza (cheese) and there were huge bubbles throughout entire pizza! Therefore no sauce no cheese across the whole pizza & burnt air bubbles! After 45 min of waiting. This happened 4 other times I picked up a cheese pizza & brought home only to find out only 1/4 of it was edible. When I told the kid it was unacceptable he just said ‘yeah it’s the oven.’ He had no clue how a pizza should turn out. He did not care & therefore gave me no confidence he would prevent Pizza 101 of pizza baking. Sadly I will never be going back to mamas after 5 disappointments.

Stopped in around 5:15, when it was not too busy. We ordered an order of spaghetti, a sandwich, and a slice of pizza. Food was passable. Twenty-five minutes to receive it though!? The food didn’t all come out at the same time; the pizza slice came out first and the other items came out fifteen minutes later!? I was told by someone working there that this is normal!? No, it really isn’t normal to tier orders for one table, it is just bad service.

Took my daughter out for dinner & a movie and almost had our night ruined. I ordered ravioli. The first plastic fork snapped in half, in soft pasta. I was frustrated it flew all over my shirt but whatever. Cleaned it off and got a second fork and a knife. The second fork snapped off again, this time lost in my food. I spent a good 5 minutes looking through it to pick it out. Finally i politely explained the situation and asked for new food. When I picked up my order the girl was so incredibly rude to me. It is your problem if your forks are snapping off in soft pasta, repeatedly. I was so angry. We will never be back and the ravioli went in the trash. Hire adults with food service experience.

Came out here to eat the other night with my better half, as we’ve done a couple dozen times during the pandemic, because we are big believers in supporting small business and generally don’t need a chain restaurants. Order the same thing we always order, the mama’s original with no green peppers and no onions on half as my better half doesn’t like them. The kid taking the order really struggled so I repeated it three times. I also ordered an order of garlic knots, which are generally very tasty

First time here. Wait staff hides in back took about 10 minutes before we found someone to take our order. Dining area had 3 “d”s dingy, dark, and dusty. Nobody’s cleaned in years. Food takes a long time to come out. We ordered a meatball sausage hero and 2 slices of Sicilian pizza. The hero was great. Bread was good, appropriately cooked. Sausage is kinda spicy, meatballs tasted awesome. Sauce was kinda chunky with lots of seasonings. Best parm hero i have had outside of ny. Then came the Sicilian pizza. It had a totally different sauce than the hero and it was not good. The tomato sauce on the Sicilian pizza had no seasoning. It was bland, watery, and flavorless. Its a shame cause they nailed the crust to what you get in ny. But that sauce was terrible and because of that the whole pizza was under seasoned. If they had used that sauce from the hero on the pizza it would have been perfect.

We order a lot from here whether it’s pick up or delivery. We’ve had maybe 1 or 2 issues with an order in the many orders we have placed, and they are always more than accommodating- even offered once to personally drive us a new pizza. Always good pizza and subs.

Update: wait time has gotten worse! How that’s possible is mind boggling. We won’t be back.

Great location. Went there tonight, grab a slice of pizza. My hand was bigger than slice. Great location, think it’s time to go. Used to love it there. Thumbs . Will never go back. I know hard to find good help nowadays. Owners should step up.
