my favorite

by dnmark

this is my favorite restaurant. when ever im home, i cant wait to eat there. im the type of person that when i travel, its all about the food...and this is as traditional as it comes. my first experience was with my family, its a very friendly and family type of atmosphere, but i noticed the waiter talking to the cook...he only spoke italian! good sign, plus, it felt like i was in my grandfathers kitchen. it only got better from there. the food was fantastic. the chicken marsala is my fav, but the lobster ravioli, uh, need i say more?!?

Great Italian Food and Service.

by sox20042007

I go to Mother Anna's several times a year. Food is excellent, IF you go with a bunch of people call ahead you can order family style. We had Chick Parm, eggplant, soups, antipasto........

The service is excellent. The wait staffs timing is perfect. They come over and check on you at the right time. I highly recommed this great italian food.
