I can write this review in one sentence: GO EAT HERE AND BRING YOUR FAMILY. Oh wait, they want at least 25 words.....there we go.

Ok

I went there and found u couldn't order any pasta without preordering but I understand I hear it's good so I got a panzerottti, it was ok. It wasn't the highlight of my eating experiences and found it was over priced.... Not something I would choose all the time but maybe if I'm ever in the neighborhood or if I have some time to kill. Not a favorite just an option if it's the closest is what I'm saying.

Like marrying into an Italian family!

Great food! Alfa came to check on us repeatedly, made sure we knew to get the caesar salad as hers was "the best" - she was right, and we had an incredible meal. IT was a bit strange to order in advance, but we'd heard great things, so we tried it, and the food was amazing... we'll definitely be back.

An incredible night

After hearing about Mama Alfa's for the last five years from my brother up in Thunder Bay, my family and I finally made the trip. It was our first night in town, and Alfa heard we were coming as well. Upon arrival, we were instantly treated like family. No pretentions, no niceties, but real, honest Italian hospitality and love. From the incredible garlic bread to the mini calzone and the veal so tender you could use a spoon to cut it, every dish we ate was Italian food done right: simple, honest food using high-quality ingredients, cooked well and presented with amore. My two-year old wouldn't allow me to eat off my own plate, as he wanted to eat it all! (Thankfully, there was so much I was able to have a side plate all for myself.) Alfa and Ralph are two of the loveliest people you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting. Every wonderful thing you've heard about them is true. We'd heard stories ourselves, but there was not one word of hyperbole in them. Theirs is a story in of itself that only adds to the depth of the restaurant. The only problem with Alfa's is that she's in Thunder Bay and we are not. There's a real gem up there, a little piece of southern Italy transplanted into a corner of northern Ontario. It doesn't matter your profession, background or nationality at Mama Alfa's. Everyone is family, and nobody leaves hungry.
