Uptown Mall BGC restaurant : Mamma Mia

Fond of Italian cuisine?  Then Mamma Mia Restaurant at Uptwon Mall BGC should be your top of mind!

People have various notion when they hear about Italian cuisines, some think about spaghetti, carbonara, pizza, beer, and good times. Well, that is just what the owners of Mamma Mia (Giulius Lapino and Salvatore de Vincentis) want to showcase in their restaurant.

Giulius is half-Italian, so he has a good background about Italian cultures. He relates that Italian people are fond of eating outside their homes where they spend hours to sip their coffee in restaurants, spend their lunch and dinner out, and enjoy quality time together with their friends while music is playing till the wee hours of the night.

Such as what they want to bring the same culture into their own restaurant, a thing that is totally true once you enter in their place. Warm lights and rustic decor give the place a cozy homey ambiance, perfectly balance by good music in the background.  If you are looking for a place of comfort and relaxation, this is the best food destination for you. If you are looking for restaurant for your family dinner, still, this is the one for you.

So… what kind of food do they offer in this restaurant? We have tried some of them, and while a lot were not foreign to our taste buds, the quality of ingredients and the excellent marriage of flavors made our dinner such a delight!

From your favorite Italian staples such as pizza and pasta, to risotto, and creamy gelato, a visit to Mamma Mia will definitely make you leave your hungry palete satisfied.

• Porchetta Pizza – This is not just the typical pizza you can find everywhere. It has a unique taste that no one could imitate it. The moment I tried this pizza, it was just pure heaven!
• Mortadella e Pistacchio Pizza – Our favorite! No doubt pistacchios are delicious but we’ve never had (or can even think) to have them in our pizza! It was just crazy good, you need to try it for yourself!

• Spaghetti Carbonara Alla Mamma Mia – People are dying to try this extraordinary Spaghetti Carbonara from Mamma Mia! Honestly, I got intrigued and can’t help but to try this one. Truth to be told, from afar it looks like your familiar Carbonara but once you get a forkful, the taste is just like no other. No one really knows their secret and I don’t think the head chef has plans to spill the beans anytime soon! Fine by me, that means more reason to come back!
