La Mamma Pizzeria - Christchurch

Just had a fantastic evening celebrating my husbands Birthday. The staff were very friendly and made the children feel special, the food oh my days.. Home cooked food just absolute silence as we all just savoured every mouthful. Wonderful atmosphere, brilliant.. Can't wait to come again!

Bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. The food is great, there is always service with a smile. We have never been disappointed whilst eating here whether it be as part of a group or just the two of us. Our favourite Italian Restaurant

...don't know who Bob Wilson is? Ask your Dad (provided he's over that is Well, Bob Wilson obviously likes this restaurant because he's been in there every time we've been there for dinner (either that or he's stalking us), and to be honest, I would quite understand why you'd want to eat your dinner there all the time if you had the money.It's not cheap, but it is good value with generous portions and excellent quality food. It's also incredibly popular, particularly at weekends, so early booking is vital despite the fact that they cram as many people into the restaurant in one go as possible. The best place to sit is round the corner in the old house part of the restaurant, but you have to be very nice to the staff when you phone up to book, and the chances of getting in this area on spec without a booking are close to nil. A great place to go for a birthday celebration the staff make a real fuss of you, Stevie Wonder's "Happy Birthday To Ya" comes blaring out of the stereo, and a cake with sparklers wends it way to you through the crowds of singing and cheering diners. A superb restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. Just wish I could afford to eat there all the time (hence only stars)

I recently enjoyed a wonderful evening celebrating my husband's birthday at this restaurant. The staff were extremely friendly and made our children feel very special. The food was amazing, homemade dishes that left us in absolute silence as we thoroughly enjoyed each bite. The atmosphere was fantastic, and I can't wait to come back again!

Although it's a bit expensive, you definitely get your money's worth at this restaurant. The food is excellent and the service is always friendly. Whether dining with a group or just the two of us, we have never been disappointed here. It's our favorite Italian restaurant.
