Mama Mi’
36 Eastbourne Lifestyle We love Italian food, but we kind of had a Italian
food overload a couple of years ago, so we’ve not
been going out to any for quite some time.
This stopped when we saw an amazing looking pizza
on a scroll through Facebook. It looked delicious, it
made us stupidly hungry and that is how we ended
up at Mama Mi’. You will find Mama Mi’ at the bottom
end of Grove Road and you might have walked
past it a million times and not even noticed.
Mama Mi’ is a warm and friendly Italian restaurant
and we were really surprised to see just how lovely
and attentive the staff were. They went above and
beyond.
The menu is a lot bigger than we expected, they had
so much to choose from.
For starters we opted for a pizza to share. This was
because we both wanted pasta, but we also wanted
to eat the pizza that we saw on Facebook. So that
was what we came up with. Because of that, the staff
made us a smaller version of the pizza so that we
could have the best of both worlds.
The pizza that we decided upon was the proscuitto
& funghi. On that pizza you will find tomato, fior di
latte, ham and mushrooms. It was absolutely delicious.
Every single bite was incredible. We also think
that a ham and mushroom pizza is as good as it gets
when it comes to pizza toppings. So so good.
✩ The most amazing pizza ✩
After that was demolished, we went on to have
linguine carbonara and rigatoni al ragú vegetariano.
This rgiantoni was rigatoni with onions, peppers and
mushrooms. This whole dish was so good, all the
flavours worked so well together.
The carbonara was so rich and creamy and cheesy.
Loved it.
This dish in particular was very filling. Isn’t it weird
how carbonara tastes different in every single
restaurant? We were really impressed with both of
those dishes and would happily recommend them to
anyone who is looking for a yummy pasta dish.
Throughout our time there, the staff checked back
on us regularly. Not in an annoying way though, in a
friendly manner. They really cared what you thought
of their food and it really came across how much
they love their restaurant and job.
Mama Mi comes highly recommended for us and we
will be visiting again with our friends and
families. We even know what we will be trying next -
a napoletano calzoni which has tomato, fior di latte,
ricotta cheese, ham, pepperoni and mushrooms
inside.
Also if any of you ladies and gents are Aperol fans -
you can get yourself an Aperol at Mama Mi’. Such a
perfect way to spend an evening.
