Mama Riso's Restaurant

Our family & friends had mom's 80th birthday party dinner here and were met with kindness and professionalism both on the phone for reservation & in person at thr dinner. We were served by the owners themselves. Our party was handled with so much love and consideration. Thanks to them we will definitely come back for more and highly recommend them to others as Mama Risos is the best place to go in Lake George.

Old school italian joint with great food and affordable prices especially for Lake George. The staff is very prompt, friendly and attentive. The menu is large and has a lot of classic dishes and they have a lot of seafood options which for pescatarians is great. The portions are large and you can tell the food is fresh and made to order. I ordered the Seafood Fra Diavolo which they ask how spicy you want it and I am a spice lover so I said extra spicy which it did not disappoint. Came out piping hot and spicy, I could not stop eating the sauce. The entrees all come with a choice of soup or salad which mine also came with linguine but I substituted it for a side of sauteed escarole. My mother ordered the lasagna and minestrone which she said was excellent especially the sauce which she aske

I've always wanted to eat here and never did for 25 years. Finally I made it there with my wife. I can't remember the name but I had a seafood platter with marinara sauce and macaroni. For the appetizer we had eggplant. The dessert was homemade Italian cheesecake and tiramisu with two cappuccinos. Everything was delicious 😋. The staff was very friendly and very accommodating. I am Italiano and grew up with great ethnic food in New York City. Mama Riso's is an authentic Italian restaurant with awesome food and a relaxing atmosphere. 🍹

Food is ok. I ordered penne al'vodka which came with a soup or salad, I choose the salad. I ordered my dinner al'dente, with a side of meatballs. One cherry tomato and sparce lettuce. The dressing was supposed to be on the side which is was not. Way too much dressing on the salad for the lack of lettuce that was served. As my meal came out the waitress told me the kitchen couldn't cook my pasta al'dente so they decided to give me rigatoni. Just be honest and tell me you already have the penne pasta pre cooked. The meatballs were the size of tiny golf balls. Total for my dinner, $27, and I didn't get what I ordered. My husband ordered the lasagna, not a good size portion either. His salad or should I say lack of was worse than mine. Needless to say we will not be here again.

Food was delicious. We had a large party and they were very accommodating. Took a while to get our drink order in at first but still very good food and service !!
