Mamma che Pasta — Restaurant in Sorrento

We ate here tonight at this cute family run restaurant and were not disappointed!!! Highly recommended!

There was a line for a table when we arrived but I will say that it moved fairly quickly. Once seated, the atmosphere was bustling and the servers were funny and quite the jokesters!

We ate the shrimp tartare for an appetizer (delicious!) and each of us had a pasta. My husband ordered the rigatoni bolognese and I had the truffle ravioli with truffle sauce. Both were amazing!!!

The pasta is made fresh in front of you in the restaurant. You choose what type of pasta you want, then you choose your sauce. The pasta available includes rigatoni, casarecce, spaghetti, and many different types of filled ravioli to name a few. There were also many different kinds of sauces available including pesto, bolognese, tomato sauce, lemon sauce, butter and parmesan, etc. Finally, you can also choose an add-on for your pasta if you wish such as burrata cheese or meatballs.

Everything is priced quite reasonably for the high quality and the portions are quite large. Neither of us could finish our plates. But it was the best food we have eaten in Sorrento. :)

As a side note, they also have cute souvenirs of t-shirts and hats for sale with their slogans on them for €20 each - I picked a hat with “More pasta, less drama” on it. And I was informed they offer cooking classes in Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast under their company Penisola Experience.

To be honest, my only complaint would be the free bread they give at your table to start. We found it odd it wasn’t served with any oil or vinegar and it was almost as hard as a rock. I personally think they could either skip the bread entirely or give a...

If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience in Sorrento, Mamma Che Pasta is a must-visit. This restaurant stands out with its exceptionally fresh pasta, which you can customize with a variety of sauces and toppings. Each dish is a testament to their commitment to quality and freshness, making every bite a delightful experience.

The menu offers a fantastic range of options, allowing you to tailor your meal to your preferences. Whether you prefer a classic marinara or something more adventurous, the flavors are vibrant and well-balanced.

The service at Mamma Che Pasta is equally impressive. The staff is attentive, friendly, and eager to ensure that your dining experience is nothing short of amazing. Their knowledge of the menu and their recommendations enhance the overall experience.

In addition to the outstanding pasta, the restaurant also offers great drinks and awesome desserts. The Limoncello Spritz and Limoncello shots are a must-try, providing a refreshing and authentic taste of Sorrento. The beverage selection complements the meals perfectly, and the desserts provide a sweet ending to a fantastic meal.

What makes Mamma Che Pasta even more refreshing is the overall experience, especially after having a couple of days where we paid a lot more for average food and encountered rude service elsewhere. Loved this place for its commitment to quality, affordability, and excellent customer service.

Overall, Mamma Che Pasta in Sorrento is thoroughly recommended for anyone who appreciates high-quality, fresh pasta, excellent service, and a delightful...

We went to a pasta restaurant located right in front of our accommodation, but I wouldn’t recommend it. We saw the place while walking by and decided to give it a try, but it felt like a restaurant that only had good branding, nothing more. Honestly, the restaurants on the main street with a more authentic Southern Italian vibe are much better.

Here’s why: The place was extremely small, with very little space between tables. It was uncomfortably hot inside. Every other table was served complimentary bread, but we never received any. We only realized this after we had finished our meal. When we mentioned it while paying the bill, the older male server simply ignored us and walked away. We then spoke to a younger female server, and she replied, “The bread is free anyway. Do you want it now?” When we said, “No, we’ve already finished our meal,” she responded in a very confrontational tone: “Then what do you want?” We replied that we didn’t want anything, we were just pointing it out because it felt upsetting. She followed up with, “So you don’t want anything?”—as if we were being unreasonable. Not once did anyone offer an apology.

The service was terrible, and to not hear even a simple “sorry” until the end was truly disappointing. This was by far the worst experience we’ve had since...
