Mamma Susanna's Ristorante Italiano

The food was pretty good. Not sure If I ordered the wrong dish? My friend's dish was good. I'm not used to a lot of carbs. So, maybe that was it? Have to try and get a different dish next time! Yet, I will say that their desserts are really good!!! I had the Lemon-cello. It's imported from Italy. It's a bit on the sweet side, but so delicious!!! I was really surprised that their Tiramisu was so dang good!!! I don't like to taste of alcohol at all. I couldn't even taste it in this tiramisu. Most restaurants are heavy-handed on the alcohol. this was really light, delicate, and just the perfect amount of sweetness! I would go there just for the desserts! Which is funny since I'm not much of a sweets person. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful! Willing to give recommendations and take the time to explain it to you. They're happy to make any changes that you wish. Definitely a Mom and Pop style restaurant.

Got in just before closing time. They offer rosemary bread with oil and balsamic when you sit, which is a nice touch. Opted for something simple - spaghetti, salad, and minestrone soup. Everything was served piping hot and seasoned well. The service was attentive, and the cozy interior had a few booths and tables.

Casual old school Italian jointThis is a delicious authentic feeling Italian spot. I was looking forward to the lobster ravioli that I spotted on Yelp- but it's no longer on the menu. (Neither was the veal). We did enjoy several apps (the polenta was amazing-so creamy!) and they accommodated our large group well in the back room. Parmesan was grated over each dish as we tried a wide variety of pastas. The clear favorite was the gnocchi! FYI- serving sizes are large so be prepared to share or take home leftovers

Continuing the family fun of returning to this amazing little gem, soooooo excited to see them and and busier than ever with events and great celebrations!Still in love with the whole experience of this place. Walk in and warmly greeted, sometimes by the whole crew right as they open and it's like walking into family's house when everyone says hello in unison lol what a warm feeling though.Seated and fresh warm breaded *drool... I always save mine because we order clams and that broth is just absolutely phenomenal. Packed with so much flavor but simultaneously light! Always want to soak up the broth with that delicious bread... so nothing goes to waste.We finally tried a pizza, decent size as we still had a few slices left but we do wish the dough had been rolled out just a smidge thinner so it fit more of the plate after cooking and was a bit more crispy and thin.Shrimp scampi was a great portion, couldn't even finish because I inhaled so much bread with the clams lol again very light on flavor so not super greasy like some scampi's can be. I appreciate their light take so you leave still able to function for the day. My favorite off menu dessert was in!!!!!!! So I got the glorious orange delight, perfect on a warm summer evening and still one of the most unique desserts I've had in Sacramento.Great place for catching up with friends, date night, family night and menu is large enough for everyone to find something.Delizioso

Food was pretty good! Had the Groupon which is amazing! Full 4 course dinner with a bottle of wine! They're doing their best with limited staff. Good service but a couple things could improve. I'd recommend a uniform refresh (no shirts with holes) and the waiter could have checked back a time or two more to pace the meal better. Overall the experience and value was well worth it.

Very delicious food and the cashiers are very sweet so are the cooks I definitely recommend!! The pizza is very yummy and the pasta is always pipping hot!!

Glad to see the owner hanging out on the weekends and a new manager as well which is a welcome change. Wife and I had the polenta fungi for an appetizer which was really hot and cheesy and butternut squash ravioli and the veal marsala with a bottle of pilot. Fantastic service and Everything was delicious , we will be back soon.

This is my two cents for mamma Susanna restaurant...I order a delivery from Uber eats .. it was delivered 20 minutes late .. Plus, the menu compared to Grubhub was $.50 more for the delivery and there were less options compared to GrubHub......Now the actual food I have been looking for a place that will serve proper spaghetti and meatballs... this is definitely not the place for spaghetti and meatballs..I was told that these were house made handmade meatballs,.. they lied they were not .. I got four count them for meatballs, smaller than a golf ..I have no idea what they were made out of but they were not flavored Italian style...As such as with basil, oregano and garlic They were obviously not made by hand, and they were some of the nastiest meatballs I have had recently..Even compared to the ones in Florida..You can find better meat flavor spaghetti sauce, Great Value at the Walmart supermarket..There was no oregano there was no basil definitely no garlic in the sauce...And they have the audacity to charge $19 for a serving of this item..They also gave me two dry pieces of bread, that obviously was not any type of garlic bread whatsoever not worth taking a picture, hardly worth mentioning here.....I also asked for a side salad, which was only three dollars.. as in my photograph, they gave me 2....2 small serving of so call salad.But if you still insist upon having it delivered? I strongly suggest going to GrubHub. They give you a cheaper price and a larger opportunity have a bigger menu.Overall with the taxes and the California mandatory payment. I pay $30 including the tip for this meal. Definitely not worth it at all...

We just dined at Mamma Susanna's Restaurante off of Carlson Drive. The restaurant is located in a strip mall Parking was easy and restaurant was accessible.We were very impressed with the welcoming service staff and the food was excellent! We ordered the steamed clam appetizer and loved the garlic sauce that was perfectly "dip-able with the garlic toast. Our main dishes were the Chicken with the Gorgonzola white wine sauce and my partner ordered the Susanna Pizza; the chicken was very tender and I added some of my remaining garlic sauce to the Gorgonzola...delish! A salad with a side of blue cheese dressing accompanied my chicken and we finished with a heavenly pana cotta dessert which was rich and creamy.We both commented that we will be returning again soon and this was one of the best Italian restaurants in Sacramento...a quaint,unassuming neighborhood cafe with Excellent Food and service!

The only reason I went here was to kill time while waiting for a photo session at Paws and Palette. While I was there waiting on the undercooked and somewhat tasteless pizza I had ordered to go, a woman who had been there the previous evening came in to let the staff know that that her dining companion from last night became extremely ill after eating their food. Not only was the young girl whom the woman spoke with rude and unsympathetic, she didn't offer any type of compensation. The young gentleman who then stepped in didn't seem to have any sympathy or interest even in just listening to the woman either. Horrible customer service and sorry that I spent money at an establishment with such employees who don't care about the well being of their customers.
