Mama Mia Italian Kitchen in Cochrane

Great food and great service

Food is lovely scratch cooking very tasty & good value by

Exceptional

Just decided to go out on a Tuesday. Thank you to Mamma Mia s. Food was fantastic, had the lamb. Our waitress, Iris was fabulous! lesson- don t wait for the weekend!

Great food and really polite staff. The lasagne is to die for!!

Had a lovely lunch there with friends! Would recommend to anyone.

First time coming here, honestly was just looking for a decent steak and I was genuinely mind blown. Kept it light with a calamari for an appetizer, probably the best calamari I ve had in restaurant. Saying a lot considering I m from the east coast of Canada. Iris, my server was beyond friendly and very obviously knew her menu, huge A1 from me. I ll definitely be back!!!

We enjoy this spot when we frequent cochrane. The food is delicious but not so filling for the price they charge. Maybe add a garlic toast to your pasta meals. The calamari is pretty good here. I highly recommend it.

We visited this restaurant tonight with friends and were glad we did! The food was fantastic, service was great, and we enjoyed the evening. We don t eat out very often lately as we often find price compared to quality to be a let down. Thankfully Mama Mia did not disappoint and we left happy. We would definitely return and recommend this place to others :)

I went there with my best friend and we had cappuccino and their Tiramisu Cake. It was delicious, I highly recommend it.

Wow, the best veal shanks . Really enjoy and the spaghetti meatballs , pasta Aldente to perfection , flavour to perfection. We will for sure comeback . Our calamari and the marinara sauce .dessert is amazingly delicious, Choco lava cake.

The lamb shank is awesome and there pizzas r great.

Had the special (mushrooms ravioli), it was fantastic! Iris was out waitress and she was attentive and knowledgeable. Will definitely come again!

The food and service here are absolutely exceptional! The staff goes above and beyond to make every guest feel valued and welcomed. Richa and Jennifer, in particular, are outstanding their incredible memory and attention to detail always impress us. They remember our favorite orders every time we visit, making the experience even more special. I couldn t recommend this place enough!

Moma Mia is one of our go to restaurants. The food is amazing but get there early or make a reservation! Vegetarian options: Many

This was a surprising lunch stop. My table had the arancini, lasagna, gnocchi and lamb shank. Everyone loved their dish. Everything was priced accordingly and we all had leftovers, so basically got 2 meals out of it.

Dining area was excellent. For the price payed for the special could have been given a larger portion of the fish.

What a wonderful dinner experience. The manager and servers were top notch, the food was excellent with a wide variety and the restaurant was well appointed and clean. Thanks for a great experience!

Food was unfortunately incredibly underwhelming I got the pesto gnocchi and my wife got the risotto. The risotto tasted like it was a reheated premade meal. The servers were very average. Did the bare minimum. Looked like they hated working there (fair enough) Overall, wasn t super impressed, not likely to return

Food is always soo tasty my family and friends have eaten here literally dozens of times it s that amazing it s our to go place for delicious eats:)

Went for a family supper and wanted to try something new and we were very happy with our choice! Service was great and felt authentic, food was delicious and satisfying. You love it when youre looking at a menu and its tough to choose cause it all sounds so good! Then it comes out and delivers!

The food was pretty good, but really disappointed with the portion sizes for how much you pay. Ended up paying 51$ for two dishes that were very small and left both me and my brother very hungry, it made both of us super disappointed and felt like we had wasted our money. Both of us will not be ordering again, cant justify the price for the portion you get.

Extremely good food for being Italian in Canada. Service was great. Atmosphere is great and food was super delicious. Only downside is the pricing but thats usual for a fancy restaurant

Mamma Mia is a fantastic restaurant that has recently made its home in Cochrane. Across my several visits I have been repeatedly impressed by the food, and the service. My one gripe would have to be that the chairs are a little hard and uncomfortable.

A great lunch with awesome service and delicious food!

Delicious food and great service. Loved the Tuscan linguine. We will be back. Cochrane is lucky to have this place. And half price wine Wednesday is the day to go.

Lovely place. Definitely recommend the Sable fish special and Beef Carpaccio. Had the tiramisu also and it was divine. Highly recommend.

Incredible food and outstanding customer service by Iris. This will definitely be in my list of go-to restaurants in the Calgary area. Keep up the great work!

Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. Decent portions and delicious food!! Even the kids pizza was exceptional. Glad we checked this out on our way through Cochrane! Highly recommend

So gooood My wife showed me how delicious their food looks on instagram so I just had to try for myself. I got the calamari, and a pizza. The crust alone was perfection. There are way too many delicious looking options so I will be returning with my family! Thank you Mama Mia for bringing quality Italian food to our town

Our waitresses name was Iris and she was amazing. Taking care of us with two children. No way kind and the food was amazing!!! Kid-friendliness: Iris, our waitress was patient and very kind to her to grandchildren very helpful and selecting anything that we were curious about. We had spaghetti and meatballs and I will tell you it was the best spaghetti I have ever eaten.

First time coming here Highly recommend it, food and service was amazing Thanks to Iris for the hospitality Food : 5/5

All I can say is the service was excellent, thank you Iris. Chef Animish & his business partner Dhuruv prepared a fantastic meal for us once again. Food

Excellent food and service

$8 for beer is a little more than most places. Menu is expensive overall - lots of entrees in the $30-$40 range. This isnt Lake Louise so why charge so much?

We love this new restaurant in our Fireside community! We have eaten here many times (more delivery then eating in because we have 2 young wild children). Always delicious, always good service and great ambiance. We love how they make special occasions feel special when dining in. We have celebrated our 3 year olds birthday and my moms birthday and had a great experience each time. Our favourite dishes are the mushroom pizza and carbonera pasta. Best restaurant in Cochrane in our opinion!

ordered a margarita pizza and the pepperoni with added honey. both were delicious and hit my boyfriend and i s authentic pizza craving. yum!

We have eaten at many Italian restaurants around the world. Expecting the standard ..then boon bada bing . Mama Mia was absolutely 100% above the standard. The people of Cochrane are beyond fortunate to have this fabulous establishment. FWIW this is my first time ever rating a restaurant on line. Im only doing this because it was great! The Duck was exquisite, the risotto devine! The lamb shank tadaaa. My finicky 5 year old even gobbled down her Spaghetti and meatballs. (Must be good) Add to that we arrived 30 minutes before closing on a Thursday. Can t forget the coffee martinis my wife destroyed, put her in a wonderful Mia More state of mind. I don t drink but I enjoy the benefits of her martinis often!! Lave cake devoured and thank you thank you thank you. Great restaurant!! Terry Booth Parking: Ample Kid-friendliness: Finicky five year old devoured the spaghetti and meatballs.

Loved the food. We ate cream of mushroom, prawns scampi, calamari. Loved each dish. Very delicious. Friendly staff. Peaceful ambiance.

Delicious!

I came on a monday afternoon so it was quiet. Staff was nice and food was good. Overall not a bad experience

NUTELLA PIZZA? yes pls

Saw their stuff on instagram and HAD to try!! Lives up to the HYPE.

Food was good. Mussels were great! Iris was very knowledgeable about the food and wine. Great service!!

Amazing service, very friendly staff and the food was amazing!

Had my son s 23 rd birthday tonight at Mamma Mia s. We were so happy with the service, Jenn was amazing! So many tasty bites, great pasta and lamb! Thank you for great night!

Service was very inferior to the previous time we ate here. Waited at length for someone to greet us at the door to seat us, waited for water at the table, waited to have our main course cleared and waited for the bill..finally went to the bar area to get it. Felt like we had been forgotten in the patio area. The patio area was cool, asked for a blanket and waitress said the blanket was not to be taken home when she brought it to me. Felt like she was implying I was a thief. Saving note..the food was great.

Our server Jenifer and the rest of the staff here made our night so special with some of the best food prepared to top it off. If you haven t stopped here you must.

Last night, we picked up. First time trying this restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing. This is hands down one of the best for food quality in Cochrane. Period. We will definitely be eating from here again.

Delicious food!!! Loved the Shrimp Scampi pasta sooo yummy. Definitely recommend.

Iris was incredibly gracious. We made a mistake with our order and had to reorder the dish, fully expecting to pay for it. However, Iris kindly only charged us for one. She went above and beyond for us, and the pasta was fantastic! Thank you for a lovely lunch!! Can t wait to come back

The patio is amazing! The ciopino is amazing Get here now!!! Food

Iris & Richa were awesome . Amazing food as always & chicken wings to die for Vegetarian options: Something for everyone Dietary restrictions: Some things for everybody

We had An amazing experience from hostess to servers. All staff were wonderful . Iris was our server and was excellent- the food was amazing -recommend trying it out. We will be back! Food

Their lasagna was good. Hard working staff

We were here for dinner last evening. Absolutely amazing food and service! We are already looking forward to our next visit.

We enjoyed an amazing dinner here tonight with family visiting from Toronto. The food was delicious (Chicken Linguine served piping hot and Tiramisu sooo yummmmy!), the environment cozy and inviting, but most of all, the service was phenomenal. Jennifer deserves a bonus or a raise --- she was so genuinely warm, friendly and helpful! She made my guests feel so welcome and at home, like family. Thank you for making our night so special Jen!

Had dinner here a couple weeks ago. 5 stars all the way. Service was amazing great atmosphere. Food was amazing very happy we stopped in. If you are in Cochrane I highly suggest you stop in for a bite you will not regret it.

Everything perfect from food to service

Our first time visiting this local gem last night and we will be back! Reasonable prices for very tasty food, and great service!!

I have been a few times and the food is amazing!! Fresh and bibrant flavors. Service is always wonderful! Note closes early on weekdays.

The pasta was not great the day we went. I will give this place a second chance. Real Carbonera should just be eggs, real parmesean and pasta water, no cream or dairy milk or butter. Food

A great meal with even better service!. First time trying Mama Mia. We started with a fresh tasting Caprese Burrata and Ceaser Salad. For our main course we had Carbonara and the Rigatoni. Was a little slow waiting to get our desserts but it was a busy night. **Edit*Our server Jennifer was amazing! (Again!! ask for her section!!)**Never seen someone work so hard and still provide great service and made our night. We will be coming back soon! Sorry didnt take any pictures our food disappeared quickly into our bellies!! Recommend for sure!

Great food and great service

Richa is fantastic, she made sure we had the most perfect date night! Stellar service, would come back again and hope to be served by her! Food was also delicious.

Delicious Italian fare, excellent presentation, friendly, prompt service. We will definitely be back!

OMG... new favorite place to eat in Cochrane! DELICIOUS. Service was great. Price was fair. And a dog friendly patio we hope to be able to use once things warm up a bit. Love it!

Wonderful new Italian eaterie to Cochrane! Exceptionally good :).

This Cochrane Italian restaurant is a hidden gem. The food was incredible, the service was amazing and the atmosphere was bright and airy. Our kids loved their Spaghetti and we got to sample a bit, which was lovely to us; they make their noodles fresh and you can taste it! The kids meals were such a great deal too and included a lot ( full size fresh pasta with a giant meatball, pop and a gelato ). I loved that their pizza is fire-roasted. My Margherita Pizza was delicious. My husband equally appreciated their Lamb shank. Our server, Jennifer, made it even better with her attentive and bubbly personality. We will be back. Kid-friendliness: Kids are provided with colouring pages and Crayons. Additionally, their kids menu is a great value for the price.

Reviewed for our local community paper, The Cochrane Post rating: Locally owned, fresh, well priced, excellent service. Many people have told me how good this restaurant is. I was excited to review and ordered Sunday night dinner with dessert. Very nice staff right from when I first placed the call for my pickup order. Talked me through finding their menu since it s not on their website as yet. Friendly, helpful on the phone and in person. My order was ready as requested for pickup, the restaurant was fairly busy when I arrived. Make reservations. SO GOOD. I can see why this is a local favourite. Their signature house salad was outstanding I eat a lot of salads and this was fresh, light with flavourful balsamic dressing. The pizza was really good, the crust just perfect and not too thick, kinda crispy and chewy at the same time, and the fresh basil and cheese was divine, not too heavy. Chicken Linguini with vegetables instead of chicken, the actual pasta was perfect al dente soft but with a bite, held the sauce well with generous portions including a large piece of tiramisu, so yummy! Favourites so far: Signature Green Salad, Margherita Pizza, Tiramisu. Great patio! Looking forward to visiting again and happy to provide 5-star review. ***this restaurant did not know Id be doing a review until my order was placed and paid for***

Amazing food as usual!!

Great menu and flavorful comfort food.

Been many times since they opened, great service each and every time! Love the chicken marsala and Rigatoni Salsiccia

Heard about this place from a family member. They were able to accommodate us as a walk in and the food was amazing. So glad we came. Dietary restrictions: The gluten free pasta option was delicious and done just right that I didnt miss pasta.

We went to enjoy Fathers Day with our family. The place is nicer, and the food was amazing. Everyone was happy with the quality of the taste and the presentation of the food. Also, we were extremely happy with our waitress Nora, an amazing and very friendly and very funny person. She made our time at Mamma Mia even better. I took her recommendation for the day and am really still thinking how good it was. The dessert made of lime superb. Overall, we leave happy and full. I 100% recommend this family restaurant and we will for sure will pay another visit again. Kid-friendliness: Yes, kids are very welcome

Delicious food! Ive eaten here 5 times and it never disappoints. I might try everything on the menu.

Everyone was So nice. The food was incredible. This was my first time here and I will be back for sure

Great staff amazing food

Food and service was great! Will come back whenever we are in town!

Delicious food. The staff is courteous. Reservations recommended.

Dishes seemed to be missing some flavor and had a bit too much salt.

Wow I m a celiac and I had no issues eating here. The pizza was perfect and the shrimp scampi they made GF and it was perfect

My husband and I had an early mothers day lunch there today while our son was at daycare. It was the first meal in a very long time we did not have to worry about our toddler at meal time and the food was fantastic! The arancini were amazing and I had the gnocchi and my husband had the italian chicken sandwich. The portions are huge so my left overs are dinner tonight. On a side note my husbands father immigrated here from Italy and I have recommended this place to him. This is downtown Calgary qualify food in our town and I am so excited to go back. Our server was friend, prompt and had some great recommendation and we also ended up sharing a rose at half price thanks to her. Very special lunch. Thanks all.

Really enjoyed my meal here , this will be a do again. Nice staff, great food, chef knew what they were doing when it came to some tasty Italian dishes. Risotto Cheese Balls and Bolgnese with Meatballs was on point.

Hosted 2 large groups at MM. very good food & service

The best Pasta in town.

Seen this place a few times driving by. Decided to stop in on Friday night, first thing that hit me was the smell of the food. Instant hunger came over me. Sat down and was immediately met by server, ordered drinks and food and waited. Food came relatively quick and my first bite was incredible. Ate my meal and savored every bite. It was so good that we came back the next night also. If you are looking for amazing Italian food in Cochrane and area this is definitely a top spot you must try. For seafood lovers as for the Shrimp Scampi, not on menu but it is incredible.

We were at Mama Mia s tonight for my husband s birthday. The food and service were excellent. I have a gluten free diet which was easily accommodated. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly but a bit noisy for Seniors with hearing issues. We will definitely return again for another enjoyable evening. Dietary restrictions: There are lots of vegetarian and gluten free options.

Great Italian food. Service was super.

Food is excellent. Great service with Richa. Will come back for sure.

Poor experience and I was not happy with the food. I had to cook after finishing our meal, which was disappointing.

I had the seafood linguine and calamari appetizer. Both were hands down the best meals I have ever had, and I ve had a lot of meals!

Luckily we snuck in without a reservation but it is highly recommended to have one . Megan was a wonderful attentive server . We ordered calamari it was delicious. I had the caprese salad a great choice with the freshest buratta cheese , two kinds of tomatoes. The hubs had the special linguine with clams in a white wine sauce . Excellent experience of course we ll be back .

We had a fabulous meal on a busy Friday night. Delicious pesto gnocchi, pizzas were well cooked and atmosphere was busy. Felt like service and timing were a bit of a work in progress - they ve only been opened a very short while. Dessert wa s very good

Amazing food, Amazing service , fantastic timing and just above all things a great place for all people and ages. The wife, me and our 1 year old really enjoyed it. Thank you! Food

Morven was a delight! Food was delicious, great wine and the service was nothing short of amazing. We will definitely be back!

Great dinner with friends! Morven was fantastic, great sense of humour!!

The salad, seafood linguini, and chocolate torte were amazing. However, the panacotta was very bad. It was brought to the attention of the server, then the manager, with nothing done. Very disappointing since the rest of the meal and service were terrific. Vegetarian options: Not enough vegetarian options.

Just had dinner and enjoyed the salad and seafood linguine. Unfortunately, the panicotta was terrible. Honestly, worst ever and I don t normally complain When we brought it to the attention of the server, she apologized, but did not remove the item from our bill or offer an alternative. When we spoke to the manager about our experience, she asked if the server offered us an alternate, and we said no and we re not offered a replacement dessert or adjustment to our bill First time visit to the restaurant and unfortunately, the start of the meal was great but the Panna cotta and handling of the issue was more than disappointing May not be back. Vegetarian options: Would be noce

Went to Mama Mia for a quick lunch and everything was amazing. The food was priced well for the portions you are given. It was the second time I got the Avocado Focaccia and I would get it again. I wish it was served all day though! We also shared the Arancini and it was delicious. Service was amazing! We were greeted by the Chef and had Richa as a server. She made sure our meal was amazing and that we were served to the highest standard. Would recommend Mama Mia to all my family and friends. We were in the restaurant for less than an hour and it was quiet. If youre looking for a yummy Italian dish, try out this new amazing restaurant in the community.

This place is amazing. We were there for a work function and they were able to serve a large group with attentiveness and ease. The food was delicious, fresh and large servings. I had the shrimp scampi special and it was so good! I will definitely be going back to try out everything on the menu.

Fantastic food and great service. Great spot for a date night. Pizza was delicious.

Were a repeat customer...and did an early supper there today. Richa was our server and made our dinner special - her approach, smile, and care for our table was fabulous, she made our meal enjoyable (by the way, the food was tasty and fantastic too). Totally recommend...

We just had a party there with approx 40 ppl. They were so accommodating and the food was fantastic. Everything looks or tasted really good. I look forward to going back soon!

Food was delicious, thank you!

I rarely write negative reviews. But this must be posted . Got Take out . Basic good lasagna . Puny portion you need a magnifying glass to find in the tray . Not worth $25 . No garlic bread either . Restaurant was empty so No excuse for being busy. Lets End positive... I have had the Carbonara ,dine in . Was spectacular, decent portion , and the mushroom soup was great as well. Probably go back eventually for dine in .

One of the best Italian food I ever had on trip to Alberta with amazing ambience and friendly staff! Gonna visit this place again

Loved the food. We arrived early without a reservation. Great seafood options and delicious Caesar salad. Trudy, the manager checked on us and everything was great. Food

Alexia is an amazing bar tender and is so polite. The food came out fast, was hot and tasted amazing. So much so that I ate all of it before I could get a picture of how well it was presented

After returning back from our honeymoon in Greece, we were excited to try some authentic Greek! We were not disappointed. Food and service were top notch. Will be returning lots in the future! Owner was lovely.

We took our staff out for dinner here recently. The waitress was very friendly, attentive, and sensitive to any special dietary needs. Everyone loved their food - the quality and portion sizes are excellent. The menu isnt on their website for some reason and is difficult to find elsewhere online. Highly recommend and will be back!

The food was absolutely delicious. The service very prompt. Thank you. Parking: No issues with parking Food : 5/5 |

Best authentic Italian food i have had. Staff was very polite. Just good vibes :-)

Thank you Morven for the great night.

Excellent food and even better service!! Morven was fantastic, super knowledgeable about he food and just all around delightful.

First time and really enjoyed the food, the service was excellent. Our server Morven was very attentive and friendly. Food was amazing.

What a beautiful Italian restaurant. The staff and waitresses are great, keep it up. Morven is the best. Daniel David Award nominated recording artist, published author

Food and servoce was really good. Highly recommended is their signature pizza! Great experience

Interesting experience. Drove 40 minutes from Airdrie. Now I don t typically leave a review like this for food being extremely slow, but this is more along the lines of how the restaurant handled it. A table sat down next to us after we had gotten there. We ordered at the same time and the food took well over an hour to come for both of us. Long story short, we were polite with smiles as this didn t phase us much (even though we knew it was horrendously slow) whereas the table next to us was complaining and were honestly acting like children given their continuous comments about zero tip, never coming back, etc. They received their entire meal for free and we didn t even receive a discount. Not the way to handle customers. If you know you had kitchen issues as you indicated, customers should be compensated relatively equally if they had the same experience. MAMA MIA! :(

First time to eat here today but we received best food, service and treatment. Chef Animesh is amazing( food superb), the server(JC) who served us today is extremely superb who made sure we are having the best time of our meals. The Manager who is there as well to assist is simply amazing and keep checking on us. My son who is a 5 years old after having our lunch mentioned best ever lunch he had Had our appetizers ( calamari, wings, prawns) Salmon Salad, Rib Eye Steak, Seafood Linguini, Alfredo Pasta - simply the Best! He enjoyed every single food served in the table. Happy to try this restaurant and we highly recommend !

Very good service

Fantastic meal, very high quality, great service and staff very friendly

Have been to Mama Mia a couple of times - this time with friends and again if didn t disappoint. All dishes were a hit - I had a special of scallop risotto (delicious) - and service was top notch. Both server and food runner friendly, polite and attentive. Will not hesitate in recommending Mama Mia s to anyone.

Over priced, ultra small personal pan pizza, for the price of a large. Pizza was cold and soggy. Eww!! Never returning.

Food was fantastic, especially the chicken Marsala I had. Service was great, the server Nora and the Manager Trudy were both quite friendly through conversation. The atmosphere was also quite nice with it being a very spacious restaurant. Thankyou for the great meal! Food

Fabulous restaurant. Terrific food, great service. Alexia was an outstanding server!

Fantastic food, great service, cozy atmosphere. Our server Nora was a great source of details about the menu. We will definitely return and highly recommend.

Food is always good and staff are fabulous. Only thing is, I order chicken linguini without the chicken every time I am there and today I was charged more than previous because the chef said so. My meal has gone from $18 to $19 and today it was $20. I do appreciate the price adjustment but please make a decision on price. I also understand the cost of food goes up but I don t see any of my friends meals going up. Vegetarian options: Glad you can make vegetarian options but please don t penalize me on price.

Great food and awesome service (thank you Rose)

Had a birthday lunch with friends today in this lovely new restaurant. Our waitress Rose was very accommodating, the food was delicious and NO loud music booming in the background. Delightful meal topped off with the amazing chocolate tort . Jane

We had a great time at Mama Mia tonight! It was very busy and our server Marvin was wonderful. Food was excellent and the drinks were too! 10/10

I went here last week for dinner with my friend and the food was amazing! Our server Morven did an amazing job, she was kind, helpful and overall a fabulous server! 100% recommend coming here!

Wonderful lunch.

Our meal and service was AMAZING!! We got the arincini apppetizer, spaghetti and meatballs, and prosciutto arugula pizza. Our server Richa was so courteous and prompt, she made our experience so special!

Food was delicious, quick to come out and service was fantastic. Thank you Morven, you were an amazing server. Food

Food was amazing, the service was amazing and Morven was awesome! Felt bad for the people eating at the McDonalds Kid-friendliness: One of the only good restaurants in Cochrane that has a kids menu

Authentic Italian taste with top-notch service and hygienic atmosphere. Do visit here with your loved ones. Able to chat comfortably with my friend without screaming, yet the ambiance was nice and lively . The food was excellent, loved everything we had , good options.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful date night at Mama Mia. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was quite nice. Our server Morven was attentive and had great meal suggestion!

Right to the point, Garlic Prawns with some red on the side, and those starters are yummy in the tummy, I mean mama mia whoo hoo..

Went there with Friends Highly Recommended Place. Great food and Price is far better then any other place in Calgary the whole team is great service on time food is delicious. Food : 5/5

Best Italian good in Cochrane and better than calgary restaurents

I absolutely love quality food and service and this place delivered both. Wow! Can t give mamma Mia enough stars. Seafood pasta was unreal, best I ve had. Husband had lasagna, you can tell all the love goes into making these meals.

I went in for a nice dinner with my friend and the food was amazing, staff was all friendly and our server morven did an incredible job as she told us all about the specials and was checking on us constantly through the night. Highly recommend and will definitely be going back again and again!

Highly recommend! Our server morven was a hoot! Definitely recommend the pesto gnocchi it was delicious!

First time trying this restaurant. Service from Morven was extremely friendly from the start. Order was taken promptly, drinks came out quick. Appetizers are fantastic, and the mains were even better. I d recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice little Italian place.

My wife and I wished for an Italian restaurant in fireside and not only did it come true but it lived up to the expectations. The zucchini & almond soup and salad were great starters. I had the chicken Marsala and she had lasagna . I highly recommend this restaurant and all of the staff are amazing! My compliments to the chefs.

Great tasty food AND WILL COME BACK. Only real issue was with wine prices. Recommend selection be expanded upon with lower glass prices. This Cochrane not downtown Calgary.

The food was good, but the service was abysmal. We couldnt understand our waitress because of her accent. Cheap labour at the expense of the customers!

Nice atmosphere but worst service by todays lunch server..a waitress who neither shared drink or food specials but charged us for two drink items that were undeniably undrinkable. If Mama Mias wants to compete in pricing with middle of the line to high-end Italian culinary they need to really upgrade their wait staff to knowledgeable, professional and attentive.

We recently had the pleasure of eating here and the food was amazing. At our table we had a pizza, calamari, carbonara and rigatoni and everything was amazing. The dinner was worth every penny and our server was very attentive even though the restaurant was quite busy this night. Nice to have an option like this in Cochrane and we will definitely be back.

Pasta was really good, good portion and perfect pasta texture...nice spice on the dish I had. Friendly staff... decor is still the stump with some refinements...would definitely go again

This was our first time at Mama Mia s restaurant & what a pleasant surprise! We were met & seated by the friendly Manager, Trudy, who ensured our seats were going to be comfortable. I had the house pasta special & it was the most tastey pasta dish I ve had in a long time. My hubby & son each had a different pizza, they both really enjoyed their pizza. We were served by Laura who gave us awesome service, both friendly & caring. What an amazing server! We will definitely be back! Thank you for the great service Mama Mia s!

Best Italian food in Alberta, all the dishes are mouthwatering because pastas & sauces are homemade. Especially try their homemade Tiramisu and no one can beat that. Atmosphere, location, staff & owner is beyond the expectations. I would ve given them more stars if I could. Must try this restaurant !

Visited Mama Mia for a birthday dinner, and it was fantastic. Given that it was severely cold outside, the restaurant was busy. Our server was informative, attentive, and really friendly. She provided great recommendations and was very patient with our group of 7. The night manager was also super friendly and frequently visited to make sure everything was good. We started with Meatballs, arancini and calamari. All were good, except the overall winner was the sauce that the meatballs were in. The calamari was also very good. Even one of the kids that doesnt like seafood, liked it. We had a variety of mains, ranging from carbonara, lamb shank, pizzas, lasagna and a chicken marsala. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the restaurant was very open to making minor substitutions when requested. To highlight the tastiness of the sauce that came with the meatballs, it server as a fantastic dip for the pizza crusts. Prices seemed on par with other Italian restaurants in Calgary, though the portions were better here. We will look to return again to try other items on the menu. One note to consider, in another review, a patron had indicated that the music got louder at night and that they felt that they had to leave. Not sure about the leaving part, but we did notice that when the bar server took over our table, the music did get a bit louder, which led to louder conversations. The noise level didnt bother us, but the volume increase was noticeable.

Excellent service and absolutely delicious food! My boyfriend is a very fussy eater and he managed to try something new and loved every bite! Will be coming back often :)

Great food and atmosphere! They make you feel at home and attention to detail is outstanding!

First time here tonight. Should have made a reservation as it was quite busy, but even without they got us in! The food was phenomenal. We had pesto gnocchi and risotto funghi. Forgot to take pictures... Then for dessert we had the chocolate torte and the affogato. Definitely glad we didnt skip dessert tonight. Highly recommend this place! Our server was Nora and she was great!

First time visiting the restaurant and was not disappointed. Food was amazing and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Our server, Meagan was wonderful she knows her job and made our visit more special she had an amazing personality. Excellent service by all staff

Very glad to see this place in Cochrane. We had a business meeting supper for our first visit and will be back. I had the special, shrimp scampi and others had salads which looked to die for! I ll be back but will stick to my pasta as I love it.

We have been to this restaurant three times now and have never been disappointed. Definitely make reservations for lunch or dinner. We happened to go for a late lunch today at 2 p.m. and it was delightful. The food has always been fresh and plentiful. It was nice to go at this time and have time to speak with the chef and other staff as well. We will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to others. Its definitely a local gem!

Amazing food. Friendly service. Great wine. Definitely a wonderful addition to Cochrane! Been here 3 times now and it s been wonderful every time.

This restaurant is a must!! The absolute best lasagne and spaghetti weve ever tasted! Even the salad was prepared to perfection. The desserts are amazing - decadent! Our server Richa was efficient, engaging, informative, thoughtful and just a most pleasant individual. Thank you for making my birthday so special!!

This was our first visit. The meal for the most part was fairly good, very nice flavour! The only thing I d say regarding the food is the spaghetti didn t taste like home made pasta. It tasted like it was from a package. For the cost of the meal I would have hoped for more authenticity. The service was very slow, took forever to have our water topped up and our waitress did not check to see how we were enjoying the food until we were literally done eating. It then took a very long time to get our bill. This post is purely meant to be constructive criticism. We hope in time things improve and they iron out the kinks. I would love to see this place improve and grow.

First visit and will definitely return and inform family and friends. Would recommend making reservations as they were very busy. Served by Angela and she was very attentive and brought us a complimentary Chocolate Torte to complete our dinner. You must give this new restaurant a try.

Amazing food, beautiful ambience and awesome staff!

Really delightful experience for my mother s Birthday dinner. Service was good and the food was out of this world! Especially the Arancini. Price point was fantastic as well. Will be returning!

Great food, fabulous dessert, yummy wine and really good customer service. Only recommendation would be to include bread with the meals.

Its nice to see another restaurant operating in Fireside that isnt a chain and family-owned. My husband and I dined for the first time and enjoyed our meals and the service very much. We will be back to enjoy it again.

There is a reason why this place is so busy. The food is fantastic and it offers an experience that is otherwise missing in Cochrane. It tasted fantastic and the staff were very friendly. Expectations are always going to be high for food that is priced higher than what people eat at Earls, but this isnt Earls. Its infinitely better.

Hate to do this because I want nothing but success for local businesses but first order ever was veal and it was dreadful! I could not chew it enough to be able to swallow. I was very excited to have this place near by, hopefully it s better next time.

Best pizza in cochrane! Simple, delicious, great ingredients.

RAVE Mama Mia- Italian Kitchen : We just tried the new Italian restaurant in fireside with no reservations, I didn t realize we would need reservations but they quickly seated us with no issues but definitely recommend for future and they did quickly fill up by 6:00pm!! But the food was absolutely Devine, the atmosphere and staff were fabulous! The calamari was our favourite dish , it was honestly so tender and silky tasting it was perfect! I would order like 2 of those next time ! It was so good !! We also enjoyed the mussel and couple of pasta dishes! We bought our son with us and they were totally welcoming to our son as well ! I highly recommend trying out this new restaurant when you get a chance , it s totally worth it !! I just wish they bought complimentary bread and more cheese for my pasta lol but honestly it was all very good . Big thank you june our server, she did great job ! Ps - I also tried there tiramisu cake and it was also very good !!

Great service, large portions. Will be back!

Absolutely amazing food, friendly, fun and professional service from the kitchen to the table. Hats off to Anistel and Meghan and the manager for making this a memorable night. Suzanne and I will definitely be back. Can t wait for the pizza . Oh and a must have is the tiramisu, out of this world . Second visit in one day says it all.We were just there tonight

Ordered through skip took 1.5 hrs and for $33 the veal Parmesan was mush with a pile of overcooked spaghetti on top. Not even a sliver of garlic bread with it. Never again

Fantastic food, service was good although a bit slow as they were quite busy. Great Calamari and spaghetti carbonara

Amazing taste, Marvellous, tempting dishes !!

Great place with great people, they totally deserve a chance to succeed!

Couldn t believe the quality and freshness of a skip the dishes order. Can t wait to dine in!

Great food and lovely service! Great with our little 13 month old as well. We will be back!

I have to say it has been a wonderful experience coming to this restaurant. Anybody who has a chance should come. The food was amazing. Not even debating that one, our server Joelle was phenomenal. She made us laugh. She said no matter what we got. It was amazing and she was spot on, the tiramisu was exactly what she said like eating a cloud recommended highly, thank you for everything. Will be back again and again

Told an hour wait and we were in 10 minutes later and that was just the start. Our server Joelle was amazing! Asked how the tiramisu was and Joelle said like a cloud! She wasnt lying. Oh, yes the food was amazing too! Portions for price were amazing as well!

Awesome food! Awesome service!

We had the Diavola Pizza and Chicken Linguine. Both were excellent. I appreciated that the pizza wasn t quantity over quality. We really enjoyed our food and will definitely return again.

Really enjoyed lunch here today. Had the focaccia and avocado sandwich with cream of chicken. It was really nice! The tiramisu is heavenly. Super light. Nice to share. Ambience really nice. Will definitely be back soon!

A great addition to Cochrane, this restaurant has delicious Italian dishes, a lively ambiance and a crew of dedicated servers.

We enjoyed our first visit here. We had excellent service, great food - pastas and mushroom risotto and large salad. Will definitely return. It is a bit noisy but atmosphere and decor was pleasant. Would love more tea choices.

Great cuisine , tasteful ambiance . Our server was wonderful and very good at communicating their awesome menu . They have a little bar for a sneak in martini to share with the Calgary flames.

The meal was flavourful and Nora was extremely helpful and friendly. Wonderful experience and will definitely be back

We had a lovely dinner tonight, we enjoyed the atmosphere, the food was wonderful and our server Nora was a delight, she was bubbly and added to the enjoyment of our evening out.

Excellent restaurant, great food, and our waitress (Jayce) was amazing. Definitely recommend. The name of the restaurant took the words right out of my mouth. :)

My mother and I went out for dinner and were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere and food was good, but our server Nora was amazing! She was so funny and provided top notch service

Nora our server was great and very accommodating for our group. Food was fantastic, drinks on point! Enjoyed Alex s feature drink, and chocolate torte which was quoted as Best thing to enter my mouth , can confirm and highly recommend! Looking forward to our next dinner out!!

Our party of four had a great dinner at Mamma Mia. Nora our server was excellent. I mentioned how she butchered the pronunciation of certain Italian words from the menu. She took it like a champ and kept us laughing all through dinner. We will be back for the great food and to be served by Nora.

I heard a lot of good things about this restaurant. I couldn t wait to try it. I was not let down. The food was delicious. We were greeted with friendly people and seated immediately. The service was above par. Our waitress Nora went above and beyond. She engaged in conversation with us. You could tell she loved her job. She was so enthusiastic about the chocolate torte that I ordered one to go. She was right. It was the best I ve ever had. I can t say enough good things about her. You rarely get that kind of friendly and enthusiastic service. Can t wait to go again with my husband. Thanks. Nora

Great atmosphere and amazing food. Our server, Megan, was excellent. A+

Our first time dinning here. The quality is top knotch. Owners/Chefs are incredibly friendly n makes delicious food. It was Wednesday so wine Wednesday. We will be back as this is our New favourite place !!

After eating the chicken linguini I can not recommend Mama Mias restaurant. The sauce was flavorless and the chicken was tough and dry. The service was okay, but the waitress never checked on us after the food came. Also, the hard wooden seats were not very comfortable.

Good food. Great service (N). A little slow on some things coming out but worth the wait!

So delicious and great service! Here on vacation, definitely would recommend coming here!

Wonderful fresh made in house pasta! Great service (Rose was awesome). The atmosphere was nice and inviting. A little more expensive than anticipated, but thats societys fault and inflation.... Nothing to complain about. Except a tiny little thing, the smell between the restaurant and the bathrooms was a bit distasteful, but the washroom itself smelt pleasant. Just something I noticed but it didnt make the time spent there any less enjoyable. I would recommend.

Oh my goodness! I had the best meal at a restaurant that I have had in a long time. The chicken marsala, was mouth watering. It was prepared with care, and presented beautifully. The restaurant was Friday night busy, and with no reservation, we were served immediately, and treated with respect and courtesy. Everyone was busy, staff was courteous and had time to talk and share. They were professional, and attention to detail was evident. Dishwashers were polishing glasses. I have found the best restaurant in Cochrane! My luck is it is close to my home. I will be proud to recommend it to my family and friends. I am pleased to have a restaurant where I can host my guests. Keep up the great work. I will definitely be back!

We ordered the burrata, the rigatoni, and a Margherita pizza. The server was attentive and friendly. Good service. The burrata dish was good. The rigatoni pasta was cooked well. The sauce however was lacking. Was this homemade? Or from a jar? All we tasted was the sausage that was in the sauce. The margherita pizza had zero taste! Seriously.. first time I had a pizza that had no taste. Italian restaurant really should be serving bread. It s a staple. Tighten it up folks.. or people will stop spending their hard earned money there.

The food is AMazing. Risotto (chefs kiss). Scallops. Insanely good. Our server, Rose, was attentive and seemed to be intune to our every need. Desserts were super delicious. Tiramisu was so so good! Can t wait to come back. Definitely our new favourite restaurant in Cochrane.

Congrats on your success and we will be back. Special thanks to Rose for the delightful and friendly service! Natalie, Jim, Vera and baby Nathaniel ( who was at Mama Mia, his first restaurant, at less than four weeks old! ).

Thought we would have dinner at Mama Mia (formerly The Stump), first walked in and saw the exact furniture from previous restaurant, no atmosphere, no Decor of Italy, Jazz music instead of Italian Calamari was over cooked, and it was previously frozen, like you get from Costco. My main was Spaghetti with meatballs, Meat balls had way to much garlic and were not tender, not a good meatball, the sauce was Rose, which I have never had with spaghetti! Tasted. Like canned tomato soup, Plus, a wedge of feta cheese on top of all of it? Had to ask for Parmesan. This dish is so mixed up, nothing matched or enhanced each other My lovely wife had Lasagna, pasta was pasty and under cooked, the cheese was flavourless, the Sauce was ok ( it should have been on my spaghetti!). Service was good. Unfortunately we will not return

Great food and service Richa was amazing!

Best restaurant in town! All high quality food made from scratch by true pros.

Pizza was delicious, my husband enjoyed the catch of the day an arctic char. Lovely lunch and wed absolutely return for a dinner date!

First time of many! What delicious food, it had been a long time since I had the pleasure of feeling all the flavors of a dish and knowing how to differentiate each one. I would like to congratulate the boss and team for the excellent work. I would suggest a pasta made with just shrimp and sauce (For people who like shrimp and dont like other seafood).

Nora was an excellent server. Salad and pizza were a hit!

An incredible jewel in Cochrane. Food was amazing and reasonably priced. Our server Nora was an absolute pleasure. I would highly recommend this restaurant. A big thank you for a wonderful dinner. Definitely going to try the seafood pasta dish next time.

We decided to try Mama Mias with the entire family. This was my second time there and my famlies first time. I must say, I was even more impressed this time around. The food was absolutly amazing. We didnt make resorvations and the hostess Skylar was able to sneak us in(Thank you Skylar) Lesson to self make a reso for a friday night. Our server Nora was friendly and on top of it while being so busy. Keep it up Mama Mia. We may have found our new favorite place to eat in cochrane.

Tried the pizza hoping to get a piece of Italy. Didnt like them. Dough is thick and lack of flavour. Also they are overpriced for the size of it.

Great to have another good restaurant in Cochrane. Great food, great service. Will be going back soon.

Excellent food and service! Will definitely be back.
