Customer Reviews
I reached out to two friends who have been rather busy lately to see if they would be able to make lunch this Saturday. They said that they wouldn’t be able to spare the time to go anywhere too far but if we stayed in Brooklyn they could make it. One of them suggested this restaurant whose food & service were amazing. They got a little carried away with the appetizers & ended up ordering the fried calamari, shrimp oregaganta, bruschetta & arugula salad. All of which were delicious. They had seasonal cocktails as well. I was the only one to try one & went with the whiskey cider which was very flavorful. For my main I had the rigatoni bolognese which was delicious & satisfying. The freshness of the pasta & the meat in the sauce was truly delicious. My friends ordered the linguine with clams
If there was ever a place that deserves every scrap of hype it gets, it's Mama Rao's. Everything was perfect from our appetizers to our drinks to our entrees to our desserts. We went on a Saturday night and had a group of 10. It was loud, boisterous, and joyful. Everything you expect in an Italian restaurant. The veal chop Milanese is not to be missed. The whipped pistachio dessert was otherworldly. 14/10 would recommend.
All I can say is wow, first time taking my family here. The food is unbelievable priced fairly fresh and portion size is good. So much better then all these run of the mill Italian places in bay ridge. Staff is great, place is really nice and clean, I’ve been missing out for years by not eating here. Everything is home made - they make their own pasta. Last night was easily one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Staff was excellent. Skip the other places and just come here. I can’t wait to come back. This place truly is a hidden gem. Very reasonably priced. One of those places you just have to try! Just had another fantastic meal on Friday night- I had to take my mom to try it. Is it possible to give higher then 5 stars??? Food is so good fresh and legit. The staff is amazing The prices are
Prospect Park is a fantastic urban escape! The paths are scenic and well-maintained, the lake area is peaceful for walks or renting boats, and there are plenty of playgrounds and open spaces for kids. Loved the picnic areas, dog runs (very dog-friendly), and the variety—zoo, carousel, Audubon Center, and even some quiet wooded trails. Restrooms are decent and spread out. Only downside: it gets very crowded on nice weekends, and some areas could use a little more upkeep. Still, one of the best parks in NYC—highly recommend!
Very fresh and tasty. service are good!!!
