Little Mama’s is the place you come with friends, family, coworkers—anyone you care about. We feature heart warming foods inspired by classic Italian-American recipes. If you’ve never had a meal with us, try the fresh mozz bar and some scratch made pastas. A full bar, sun room and dining room give you a variety of spaces to enjoy yourself and have a leisurely time with a cold beverage and some food like your grandmother used to make. Inspired by the 1960s and 70s Italian restaurants of his youth, Frank Scibelli opened Little Mama’s in 2020 as a sister concept to Mama Ricotta’s, a Midtown fixture since 1992 known for its pizzas and comfort classics.
