You know a restaurant is good, when the place is packed ALL the time. I also visited on Memorial Day weekend like the guy below me, and I agree with what he says about the atmosphere. It was loud, and there were a lot of college aged people there who were rowdy. Unfortunately, in Dewey Beach, that was EVERY restaurant... More

I know it is tough to be in the restaurant business these days and tougher still to be a full service restaurant in an area dominated by young people interested mostly in partying. But the changes at Mama Maria's (loud rock music and customers, a cheap bar with no control of alcohol consumption) is turning this "best Italian restaurant in... More

If you've never had MaMa Maria's pizza, you don't know what you're missing!! Don't be fooled by that other place. This is a great place to take the family out or just hang with friends. The owner works the crowd and makes you feel at home. You can't go to Dewey without stopping here. We can't wait for our yearly... More

The BEST Italian food - local owned - friendly atmosphere - great value - will accommodate your needs and wishes. Had the Chicken Franchaise - Hubby Loves the Salmon, so delicious! The dishes are "generous and tasty'. Love the atmosphere and the service was warming and welcoming, absolutely No complaints!!

Food is very good. Staff is friendly. Atmosphere is fun. Nice family restaurant. Their pasta dishes with their home made sauce are just incredible. We have never had a bad meal here. Best Italian restaurant in Dewey Beach! Great to stop in for lunch or dinner after you have been sitting on the beach.

Sitting in the hottest section of town in Dewey Beach, you have it all at Mama Maria's, from the late night "Take Out" counter to the "Sit Down" family dining section to the entertaining "Beach Bar" and only a minute walk to the ocean. Excellent food and service, family owned and the ultimate beach atmosphere, it's a visit we make... More

Whether your visiting with family or hanging with your friends you will not be disappointed at Mama Maria's In Dewey Beach!

The restaurant serves the best authentic Italian food in the area, and have done so consistently for many many years and if you want Pizza there is nothing else that can compare; a true brick oven made from scratch New York style pie. I would challenge you to find better service and a more fair price for the quality you... More

Mama Maria's is one of those restaurants you have to keep coming back to. They have an extensive menu that offers the freshest food and the portions are so huge they are enough for 2 meals so expect to take some home. Special requests are always honored and the meals are actually prepared, not only by a real Italian family,... More
