Mama's Pizzeria

"No sauce or pickles or peppers (although Mama's fresh-roasted hot peppers are wonderful): just a swirling confluence of beef and cheese and caramelized onions packed into a length of brawny fresh Italian bread. In my book, this is the ultimate cheese steak."
Michael Stern






"Hoagies, garnished with crisp lettuce, sweet onions, tomatoes, and hot peppers are a major distraction from Mama's superb steaks. This is a classic Italian; other variations include roast beef, turkey, and tuna."
Michael Stern



"Mama's is far from the neighborhoods in which cheese steaks typically thrive. But for those in search of greatness, it is worth any detour. "
Michael Stern
