Mama Jo's

Always on top of my to do list when visiting Vegas. Ira and the boys take excellent care of you. might look like a strip mall restaurant - but it is much more than that.

Really enjoy eating here, it is our saturday night dinner whenever my family, or biz associates, are in vegas. the pastas are all excellent. i order a little something off the menu - a bowl of spicy marinara and some toasted italian bread with some fresh roasted garlic. best appetizer anywhere and then of course you have to try to eat. lasane and bolognese are the best. the seafood pasta dishes are to die for. a little bit of a ride from the strip, well worth it.

• Pros: Quality, taste, service
• Cons: Far from the strip

Hard to find - Tough to beat

This is the ORIGINAL Mama Jo's except no other. The Big Meat Pie is one of a kind. Huge portions and I'm a big eater but always have a take home tin from this fine restaurant.

A great place for pasta and an intimate trattoria ambience.

In Short
The surroundings aren't lavish, but the minimal decoration, dark-wood chair rail and brick-wall facade provide an ambience reminiscent of a small Italian trattoria, where what counts is the hearty fare. The tables and chairs are wood with an aged patina. The menu offers heaping plates of pasta cooked perfectly al dente with sauces of choice--from marinara to carbonara. House specialties like lasagna, calamari and scampi round out the menu, with several antipasti and paninis.

Great Food & Service

The food is great and the service exceptional. We were really impressed whether dining or taking out the quality was not compromised.
