Mama’s on Main - Covington, Kentucky

Menu limité mais très bon. Excellent service et courtois. Nous avons mangé à l’extérieur (sur le trottoir) car il faisait beau cette soirée la… l’ambiance est sûrement plus agréable à l’intérieur.

Came here to celebrate 8 months of being together with my girlfriend on a Saturday night I could tell they were busy because. the hostess took a minute to seat us down which is no issue at all but I know that a busy restaurant often is a good sign of their food and high demand.
Opposite to my presumption that the food was going to take a while due to the restaurant being busy, everything was briefly served. The server tried to explain the question i had about a wine but i could tell she is not a wine drinker or maybe has different taste buds than i do.

We ordered the bread service which came with butter and olive oil.

We had the lobster ravioli followed by the gnocchi. Both were very good. You can tell they take pride in their presentation although they could make the plates more filling!

Overall the experience was formidable and adequate for a nice date

My daughter picked Mama’s for her birthday dinner. The atmosphere and food didn’t disappoint! Casual yet intimate setting in historic Mainstrasse Village. We highly recommend the Chicken Parmesan and Salmon entrees.

Have been wanting to try this place for a while now. And given how hard it was to get a reservation we really had our expectations high. Service was decent. The atmosphere is nice too. We started with the bread service and the Arancini. They were both good. But I would say I have had better. For the main meal we ordered the Ricotta Gnocchi in a pesto sauce. The gnocchi itself was melt in the mouth kinda good. The sauce however didn't have much to it. There are so many other restaurants I have been to which do a much better pesto. We also tried the Tagliarini with mushroom ragu, and we were really disappointed. The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was so bland with a weird taste. If I could I would have given the place a 3.5 but nothing more than that. The portion sizes for the prices that they are charging would be worth it if the food had more flavor.

We were sat promptly with a reservation. Our waiter was attentive although she did bring the wrong drink and our drinks in general took around 10-15 mins to come out. Bread service was really good. Atmosphere was really cool but it would have been better if we weren’t so close to the other table the noise was really loud. My girlfriend loved her food and filled her up she got the salmon piccata. I got the lemon spaghetti dish it was good! Although I wish it was a bigger portion size. It didn’t fill me up which is what i expect for paying $20 for a pasta dish. The price for portion was not equivalent. We got the smoked honey apple cocktail and we both loved it. Overall a good experience.

This was a wonderful place where we enjoyed a very relaxing Italian Dinner. The food was phenomenal! We had the Spaghetti & Meatballs and the Chicken Parmesan. Both were out of this world. Service was awesome and the room had a very nice feel like you're at Mama's House!

Our first trip to Mama’s on Main and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Olivia was our server and she greeted us with a welcoming smile. She was incredibly knowledgeable of the full food and drink menus and provided recommendations for the most popular items.

We went with fried calamari as an appetizer and spaghetti/meatballs and gnocchi for dinner with the cookie platter for dessert. To drink we had old fashioneds and lemon margaritas. Everything was delicious

I can’t speak highly enough of Olivia and the exceptional service she provided. The food and atmosphere are both top notch.

We will be back.

This place was fantastic! We were looking for a casual dinner as we were out walking. We stuck our head in here, and the hostess was so delightful (even though she looked 9 months pregnant and I am assuming somewhat uncomfortable ?) that we decided to try it. Wow were we glad we did! The atmosphere was great. I would call it classy casual. They had a nice music selection playing at the right volume to be enjoyable, but not intrusive. Maddy, our server/bartender, was a perfect combination of friendly, helpful and attentive. We ordered the eggplant Parmesan and gnocchi. They were both absolutely delicious!! But before we even took the first bite, we were impressed with the beautiful presentation. The chef here is amazing, and kudos to whoever does the hiring here because every staff member we had the pleasure of interacting with was top notch! If we are ever back in Covington this is definitely an establishment we will return to!!
