MA'S Italian Kitchen

This place is awesome! Great food and Great server (HAYDN). Plenty of meat and vegetarian choices! Plus some GF ideas too!! Go eat here!

A great spot for dinner and wine! The service was amazing and the food was fresh. Highly recommend!

I have come to this restaurant for my birthday for the last 4 years, along with other special occasions. I suggested to friend that we have our memorial dinner here instead of Paće in Laurel Canyon, as a nice fun friendly place for our evening. 2 of our party arrived early 2 on time one was stuck at the airport and one so delayed we told her to not bother coming. The experience was very sub par on this night "tonight" we were immediately told that we would need to leave by 8:15 and we had not even been given a menu it was only 6:30 at that time The entire nite was a fiasco. I will no longer suggest this restaurant to my studio coworkers or friends because it's not the same wonderful place I had experienced many times before. We were not told once or twice about needing to be gone (still not even having ordered food) we were told 4 times and even after exspressing that we got the messafe it continued. the server told us first then some guy with an iPad came to our table eventually being followed by the manager all telling us thier policy and that we would need to leave then all of them came to the table to tell us how we needed to be gone an a specific time The entire night was uninviting, hostile, and honestly I wish we had simply left. It's unprofessional that the manager decided to talk over me and tell me that I am wrong when after paying the bill I attempted to tell him that he could have chosen a better way to approach us in this situation. He proceeded to accused us of purposefully breaking a champagne flute when our over crowded table had a fallen flute hit the floor when a gift bag tipped over. I don't think I have been yelled at in a restaurant before tonight, insisting that I was wrong in front of all his customers with zero shame. What a disaster this night was I wish I had simply moved our party to a friendlier venue as the night was ruined even tho we had intended on a decadent night of feasting on as many dishes as our over crowded table could handle. We made a reservation for the patio requesting plenty of time for our party but we're sat inside instead and then pressured to be sure to leave by 8:15 pm as their policy is that customers eat pay and leave in 2 hours. If they knew this they should have called and informed us that they would not be able to host or serve our party as these details were listed in the reservation. I have 25 years in the food service industry from Spago, the Royalton hotel, to the restaurant 44 in NYC, I've received reviews in the New York times, LA weekly and LA times for food and service, I know how to treat customers and tonight was an embarrassment to me and to the friends I brought to what I thought was a friendly place. The manager was so insistent that he was right about whatever that he could not stop talking over me when I attempted to tell him how it could have been delt with less offensively. This was a first but it was also an Insult as our table felt attacked for our party having issues and we no intention do delay our choices of ordering but only 15 minutes into the reservation the attack began It was unfortunate, I can't know for sure that if there is a problem that it will be handled respectfully. The food however is good but sadly the owners choice to put an inexperienced person in charge of the floor has resulted in the loss of loyal customers and the word of mouth advertising that good service and good food usually brings which is the bread and butter to small establishments like this one. It's sad I'm sad and do not plan to return.

Insanely good food start to finish from the garlic knots to the mouth watering pesto and chicken parm. Got the butterscotch pudding for desert and it was 10/10. Highly recommend!

Very delicious and exceptional service!!!! Can't wait to come back.

MA'S Italian Kitchen Ma's Italian kitchen. Well, what can I say about this jewel of Italian eatery? We came across it by accident. We were hungry and kind of unfamiliar with the area. And there it was. On Yelp, after searching for something to eat. Ma's Italian kitchen. When we got there. ( My spouse and I). We were greeted very friendly and ( since we asked if they had outside seating) led outside to a nice tent area. A couple of tables with white tablecloths as far as I can recall. It was a while ago. And a few folks sitting outside already. It seemed cozy and comfortable. The waiter, unfortunately, can't recall his name. A very nice, friendly, and attentive guy came shortly after we sat down. Gave us the menus and told us about the specials. Asked us if this was our first time there. Which it was. And asked us what we liked to drink. After some time he came back and we ordered our food. My spouse had vegan lasagna ( my spouse was in awe of how many nice vegan dishes they had). Some side salad. I had a dish of Paste bolognese with salad. We also received some nice warm breads. The dishes truly were OUT OF THIS WORLD! I seriously can say this was by far the best bolognese I had so far from any Italian restaurant! My spouse is a bit hard to lease. Just loved his lasagna. That alone made me thank the mighty food gods out there. LOL But what really stood out and will make us come back, again? Besides the great food, the great service. Was, at the end when we asked for the check. The waiter brought their signature dessert Tiramisu in a glass ( this was the first time for me ever since I came to this country. And I so appreciated it. Because it reminded me of Europe.) It was also topped with a fresh unsweetened whipped cream. This fresh taste is on top. It was so delicious. That dessert certainly is a must-have in the great place. Long story " short" ( LOL) go and try out this place. You will NOT regret it! Dietary restrictions: My spouse who is vegan was so happy to have had so many options to choose from. A vegan lasagna? Unheard of until now for him at any restaurant. A +

Great food. Great service. Great place. Plenty of parking. Highly recommended.
