★★★★★ 5.0 The Rec Vault · Oct 2025

First time here and we were so impressed! From the moment we sat down, everything was perfect. The warm baked pita bread was such a nice start to dinner, and the garden salad with housemade Italian dressing is hands-down a must-try — simple but absolutely delicious. The calamari in marinara was crispy and flavorful, and the baked clams were a personal favorite. For entrees, we got the Chicken Alla Vodka Hero and Penne Oreganate — both comforting, savory, and super filling. To finish, the frozen cappuccino was unreal (a total win for coffee lovers) and the Junior’s carrot cheesecake was incredible. This cozy Italian restaurant and pizzeria is easily one of East Meadow’s gems — can’t wait to come back!

I had dinner here with friends the other night. It was my 1st time at this location. The service was great. Our waitress gave us time to sit and talk a bit in between taking our order and receiving the food. They filled our water glasses and gave us a bread basket in the meanwhile. I ordered the Mediterranean salad with shrimp which was enormous. It was delicious. Shrimp were cooked perfectly. I took half of it home. I will definitely come back in the future.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Pilar Carbone · Dec 2025

I went to Mama Teresa Restaurant tonight and had a very disappointing experience at the end of what should have been a pleasant meal. When I received the check, I noticed a surcharge for card payment. I informed the waiter that I would be paying with debit, not credit, and that there should not be a surcharge since debit is essentially treated like cash. Despite this, the surcharge remained. I asked to speak with the manager, Frank, to resolve the issue. His response was extremely unprofessional. He said he “had no time for this,” claimed the machine is “set up that way,” and told me I should go get cash if I didn’t want to pay the fee. He was arrogant, nasty, and raised his voice instead of trying to explain or help. From my understanding, restaurants generally cannot legally charge a

I've been there several times, and it's always the same experience: extremely uncomfortable. The pizza guys are incredibly rude; they look at me like a policeman looking at a criminal. Maybe I'm being overly sensitive once or twice, but it's always like this. Especially today, the old pizza guy practically didn't say a word to me the entire time; he only communicated with me through his eyes and chin. A terrible shopping experience. I won't be going there again.

No complaints about the food. Also wait staff and counter people are also accommodating. Big problem with manager Frank with honoring gift card. Very deceptive and tried to scam us. Had to go back up twice. He finally made good on it but had a very poor attitude like he was doing me a favor. My advice is to never purchase a gift card from them. Buyer Beware!,
