    Been craving spaghetti and meatballs FOREVER. I finally got it. All the employees were super friendly and the food was hot. I chowed down before I took the picture because I hadn’t eaten other than chocolate. But as you can see the meatballs are HUGE and the spaghetti was tasty. I ordered for pickup. Took less than 10 minutes and food was hot and ready. Thanks!

    We’re our of towners and wanted to visit a local non-chain and this place was great! I knew we’d need boxes as soon as they brought the food out. Portions are huge and food was fresh. Our server, Samantha, was awesome! She was great giving recommendations and ideas. Servers came out frequently to refill our drinks.

    We were able to make a reservation last minute for 12. From the host to the server, the service was great. The waitress was very impressive and felt genuine in guiding us through ordering our food. The food was good. I had the clam chowder with the pasta combo plate. The Mama's sauce tasted fresh and had a sweeter taste. The lasagna, pasta, and ravioli were tasty. Few people got pizza and seemed very happy with it.

    We hosted an event in their banquet hall. The staff were awesome! We were well taken care of. We were able to really make the space our own. They constantly refreshed the buffet, which we appreciated since our guests were arriving at different times. The buffet didn’t look picked over. Everyone enjoyed themselves and the food.

    This place was super tasty. The service was amazing and the atmosphere reminded me of an old Italian dinner. The staff was friendly, the portions were huge, and I can't wait to go back.

    This place is so cute, almost sort of homey. The staff was nice from the greeting at the door to everyone we encountered throughout. The food was delicious, fresh, and perfectly portioned. Our waitress was so nice and attentive. We kept seeing pizzas pass our table, so our next item to try is one of those. We will definitely be returning.

    I was told that Mama Cozza's was a favorite italian restaurant of Gwen Stefanie so my wife was eager to go. When we got there the place was dead. No one was there. This was on a weekend mid-day. That should've been a red flag. I had the Fettuccine Alfredo with Shrimp. My wife got a salad with ranch dressing and the kids got pizza. When my dish arrived It did not look like what I ordered. It seemed like a bowl of cereal. The Alfredo sauce was extremely runny and the taste was not good at all. My wife was happy with the salad but how can you mess up a salad? The kids like their pizza but they eat anything! I wouldn't go back. The only thing that was good there was the garlic bread. I was very disappointed and feel bad for Gwen!!

    Service 5/5. Promptly greeted and sat down. Food 5/5. We ordered the anti-pasto salad, small Mama's Special pizza and lasagna. Soup was clam chowder. For dessert pumpkin cheesecake. Best pumpkin cheesecake ever!!! Our waitress Alison was awesome and 5/5. Definitely a must.

    I have been to Mama Cozza's a few times with my good friend and his wife. This place has amazing food and we just happened to stop in on a Saturday and they had a live band. We usually eat in the lounge area. The atmosphere is warm, cozy and I inviting and you can feel the history in the air. I will be back!

    Was out with My Beautiful Wife and Mom in law and a really dear friend at Momma Cozzas. Great Food. The service was awesome. Have been here a few times before but this was the first on a Saturday evening...the Live Music and the Atmosphere, it was really a good time. Makes me wonder why we haven't done a Saturday Evening before. You know times like this create lasting Memories and should be enjoyed as often as possible.

    It was our first time here. We ordered a chicken Marsala, kids ravioli, calamari, mamas special pizza and a lasagna. Everything was bearly warm no flavor. Chicken sauce was pure butter. Pizza tasted like it was prepared and in the refrigerator for days and without being covered. So sad it was our first and last time there

    Anaheim didn't have too many DDD options so this place had potential. We like to hit a DDD restaurant every time we travel. We love Italian. The french onion soup we had was alright. Very, very rich and thick. I wish it would have been served with melted gruyere pouring over the cup, but it didn't. Margherita pizza was great. I thought I could take 12 inches, but I couldn't. I ate half of a medium by myself. Girlfriend got the chicken parmesan. She liked it, and it was served with huge portions. Red sauce flavor was bland, in her opinion. Our server was friendly and on top of it. She even cut and served my first slice to me. Girlfriend thought the bathroom cleanliness was poor.

    Heard this restaurant was on Guy Dinner and Drive inns episode, and while in town we would check it out. Waitress and staff were great. Husband liked the chicken fettuccine, the rest of us ordered red sauce items. (There was not much flavor in the red sauce, it needed more garlic or salt. Something....) other than that things were correct on texture etc.

    Although I was not eating in the restaurant proper, I did attend a Disneyland reunion in the banquet facilities, and it was delightful. Ice water and lemonade on every table, iced tea and coffee available on a sideboard, and no going thirsty here. Once the buffet was open, the food was fresh and tasty. The service folks were on top of everything. Friendly, happy attitude with small talk and chatter that made them feel like part of the party. It was very enjoyable.

    At the recommendation of a family friend, I was finally able to swing by and have lunch at Momma Cozza’s (MC). I arrived around 11 ish and was instructed by an employee to use the pub/bar entrance for lunch or take out. I walked into the bar side which reminded me of a speak easy out of New York or Brooklyn. I was greeted by Matthew, server, with a warm smile and seated instantly in the bar side which I didn’t mind at all since I was there to sample OS Italian food that I’ve been hearing so much about. Matthew recommended the lunch trio pasta combination that came with either soup or salad. The soup de jour was minestrone but I was in the mood for a salad which was dressed with MC’s homemade ranch. My entrée, garlic bread, and drink were delivered in a timely manner and served HOT! My trio was delicious!!! It was sooo good I texted my kids and asked them what they wanted me to bring home for lunch. One my kids ordered “Make your own pasta - fettuccini with meat and vodka sauce)” which came with a cup of Minestrone soup and my other kids shared a family (giant) size MC special pizza. MC’s cuisine is a RARE in my opinion as the food is all made from SCRATCH! MC is located near the Disney resorts toward Anaheim Packing District. MC has an old world charm, family friendly vibe! You can chose to dine in the bar or restaurant side. MC did NOT disappoint! The VALUE is ridiculously affordable unless you have adult top shelf beverages. The owner Frank Cozza (genuinely a humble business owner/gentleman) stopped by my table to not only thank me for trying out his restaurant but to ask if any improvements could be made. Now if that doesn’t catch you attention, I don’t know what will. I can’t wait to taste taste MC’s Osso Buco Thank you, Mr. Cozza and Matthew for an awesome dining experience (4.5/5). We’ll be back with family and friends for the Osso Buco and Tiramisu. Mangiare felice👩🏻‍🍳

    We had our eighth grade class reunion, from 1966 and they put a spread on it was remarkable! Thank you everyone for making our reunion fantastic, the food was absolutely amazing!

    This was fantastic food at reasonable prices. The mozzarella sticks were fantastic, I had chicken parmigiana and spaghetti!

    Mom and pop restaurant that has been here for years ever since I can remember. My husband and I love coming here when we are in town. I've had the pasta primavera and this is linguine with Alfredo sauce 👌. If you want some tasty Italian food I highly recommend this place. My husband loves the egg plant parmesan. Also this restaurant was on the food network with Guy Fiere so you know this place is good 👍🏻🔥. The food prices are very reasonable compared to Olive Garden or Bucca. The few times we've been here there's hardly ever any wait so it's a win win 🤷🏻‍♀️.

    The food was mediocre, at best. We went here because it was on ddd, but between the vegetable lasagna, chicken Parmigiano, stuffed mushrooms, tiramisu, cheese sticks (these were terrible), garlic bruschetta, and BBQ jalapeño pizza, nothing tasted good or great. They have a poster of Guy F. In the restaurant, but the staff had no clue about what the house specials were or what they were known for.
