We ate in their vertis north branch. I had no idea how their food tasted and I did not do any research so I wasn't really expecting much. After my 1st bite, I immediately knew that my decision to eat here was right. I absolutely loved their mama lou's special and quatro formaggi pizza. The pasta I ordered is also one of the best I have tasted. Even their home made iced tea was good. Their price is reasonable for the quality of the food. Definitely coming back to eat here. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great itallian dining experience!!!

Mama Lou's Italian Kitchen is our comfort restaurant, me and my wife absolutely love this place, and whenever we have friends and family who wants to experience good food here in the south, Mama Lou is always one of our options. The food is great and the service is good. We always go to the bf branch since it is near our place, but we also checked out the evia branch, both are good but we liked the BF branch more, just hope we can have the cannoli in the bf branch soon. We have tried a lot of the food but what we usually order are mushroom rissotto (my wife absolutely live this), baked italian meatballs, i love their seafood olio, pizza bianca, or margherita pizza, the marbled ribeye steak is really, really good, its not thick like all the other steaks from steak houses but Mama Lou's marbled ribeye steak blows them away. We also like their carbonara, pizza saliccia (not sure if i spelled that correctly), gambas, braised beef ribs, and the mushroom chicharon, really a must try, my wife also likes the gnocchi and we also like vesuvio, its fairly new, but we usually share one order because its really hearty. The tiramisu in Mama Lou is my favorite, i like the generous mascarpone and the lady fingers a bit wet so its not dense, paired with their brewed coffee. We have eaten here way too many to count and its always great, during off hours and during peak hours, but of course you should also adjust your service expectation during peak hours, considering a lot of people are dining, the servers, specially at the bf branch, gives a good effort to make sure everyone is given utmost attention. Hope this quality of food and service never wane and more success to the business.
I recommend the mushroom chicharon and seafood olio!!! Super yummy!! ❤️❤️ tip: bread’s refillable. The dip they give you has balsamic + honey so it’s unusually sweet and malapot. If you want the traditional Italian taste, you can ask for Italianbalsamic vinegar (yung maasim) by request.
I've been wanting to try this restaurant, and I finally did, with a special occasion -- my parents' 34th anniversary. The ambiance is nice. It has a feel-at-home vibe to it.
We ordered chef's salad, pepperoni pizza ('cos my nephew doesn't like too much veggies and anchovies), bacon poutine, rollo di pollo, and truffle mac 'n cheese. Delicious! That's all i can say. � And the Mama Lou's special iced tea is also a must-try.
We enjoyed it as a family. Rest assured, we'll be coming back.
P.S. I'd like to thank the staff for preparing a complimentary dessert for my parents' anniversary. Keep up the good work! �
Mama Lou's is the best! Must haves include the poutine, spinach and goat's cheese pizza and the Mama Lou's special pizza.

Very delicious food! We enjoyed every dish we ordered! We recommend the Grilled Tuna Belly, Mac & Cheese, Salpicao and most especially the Pizza Margherita - all a MUST TRY! Also capped it with a dessert to die for - the Mama Lou's Cheesecake topped with Mango - all oh so YUMMY!!!
My boyfriend [100008675855654:Carlos La Rosa] brought me here yesterday to celebrate our first anniversary. So this place will forever be memorable. The ambiance and the setting of the place caught my attention, paintings, woods, wines, ang sarap sa mata. Wide variety of food to choose from. We ordered Mozzarella Sticks for appetizer, Beef Salpicao and Seafood Pasta plus Raspberry Juice and Mama Lou's Special Iced Tea for drinks. Didn't order desserts we were so damn full. And everything tasted really good. We are definitely gonna come back. �

I love everything about mama Lou's bf. The ambiance, the food, the staff. I always make it a point to dine in at least 2x a month :) if there's one thing that needs improvement though is the parking but aside from that, every experience had been wonderful :)

I was happy with the food but most specially with the service of your waiter Josh��
Josh was very attentive and fast.
Very seldom am I impressed but he was exceptional!
I always bring my baby dog with me whenever I dine out. I ate at Mama Lou's for the first time today and I was soooo touched by the gesture of your staff Mr. Kevin who offered my baby a bowl of ice cold water without me asking him or anyone from your restaurant. It was the first time a restaurant do such a sweet gesture and I really really appreciate that.
Not to mention, their food are sooo yummy, ambiance is okay as well. Service is superb �Will definitely come back again. And hopefully, you guys breed more Kevin on your other branches.
Thank you again. ��
Quality food! Loved the buttery escargot, the flavorful risotto, my perfectly cooked burger steak smothered in mozzarella... everything was delicious. Service was also good, the waiters were very attentive. Highly recommended!

Must try
Simple yet classy ambiance
Superb food
Hospitable staff
Top quality service :)
5 points for 5 stars!
Ps. Thanks for the free 3rd yr anniversary dessert :)
One of my fave authentic Italian restaurant in the heart of the South! Truffle pasta is my super fave, pizzas are superb too.
Cannot say anything bad about this place
Forever my go-to restaurant! It never fails. ✨
Risotto Tartufo Funghi & salpicao are my favs 💯
The service was great with amazing food especially their mozarella stick will make u fall in love with it. Mango cheesecake was one of the other delicacies I should not forget to mention because the moment you place it in ur mouth, it will melt. Thanks for the fantastic chance to eat in ur restaurant❤
I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing the food at this place was. It’s really good for families and sharing, though you can get your own dishes too. The staff were also very friendly and nice. They were helpful in recommending dishes to us since it was our first time. The pizza was so good!!!! I would highly recommend the four cheese pizza though the other ones were good too. The restaurant itself was very nice too and has a lot of seats (even though it was quite big, it was full up!) the drinks were nice too. I would also recommend the garlic shrimp. Everything was just amazing! The price was very reasonable too. I want to go back again soon!:)
One of the best default choice of my family. This place does not disappoint. From its pastas to its pizzas, mains to desserts, Mama Lou’s will make sure you leave with a full stomach! Italian sausage pasta and the salpicao are my choices.

How do I rate you? The food is excellent and I will definitely go again but I am totally dreading the slow food service. We arrived and ordered appetizers. We should have listened when the waitress suggested mushroom chicharon (because it was fast). We didn't listen and as a result waited for almost an hour for the appetizers and another 30min for the main dishes. But the food is just excellent that you just accept the service as a matter of fact and go back anyway. We had the truffle pasta, vesuvio, goat cheese pizza and seafood pizza. Loved all of them. We also ordered the taberna pizza which was good but not as amazing as the others. They honored the zomato 2+2 on drinks even with red wine so kudos to them.
Always loved Mama Lou’s. Their pizza and pasta are really good. My favorites are Mama lou’s special pizza and aglio olio pasta. Recently tried the pasta with truffle and it was so good too. For some reason, I like their regular iced tea more than the special mama lou’s iced tea. Service is always good, fast and friendly.
Mama Lou's is probs one of the best restos out there!!
Food is always consistently good from the appetizers down to the mains. My family and I always eat in the branch in Nuvali and we never get tired of their food.
My favorites: Mama Lou's Special (pizza), Mushroom soup, Caesar salad, Ribeye steak, Salpicao, Seafood olio, Risotto pesto al pollo, Risotto tartufo funghi, and the Truffle mac & cheese!
The best ang food nila and yung ambiance feels like home.
Plus very nice service crew ☺️
Looking forward to comeback here again.
We love this place. Yummy food and great staff! The place is cozy. Great for families, like mine. We enjoyed our last visit here. Definitely going back!

If we want to have an authentic Italian food fix, we go to Mama Lou’s BF Homes. We have also dined in their Solenad and Evia branches but what sets the BF Homes branch stand out among the other branches we have visited?
First, it is closer to our residence at around 2-3 kilometers, just a 15 minute drive.
Second, it has the homey ambiance from the alfresco dining area up to their second floor. I frequently see a lot of customers in their senior years which attests that the place matches with their prime taste – quiet, cozy and vintage. I am just in my early 30’s but I think I am getting old haha. I usually want to be in a relax and quiet place when dining. I am done with partying, I guess. 😀 The alfresco area is something that I want to have in my dream house. The fairy lights hung on the ceiling and the dainty plants around the garden are so relaxing and refreshing.
Third, their foods are delicious. One thing that makes me full even before our orders arrive is their hot herb bread they serve with olive oil and vinaigrette dip (i suppose). The bread is so soft and the vinaigrette complements the taste. It was already filling but of course, we still have the belly capacity for the main event. Haha
My 4 year old picky-eater son’s favorite is the Truffle Mac & Cheese. I can still remember the first time I tasted it, explosion of flavors in my mouth that sent me to heavens (I’m a sucker for cheese) 😀 That explains why my son liked it so much.
You can order their pizza with 2 flavors in one (half on half) that I super liked, able to enjoy 2 different flavors for the price of one (whichever has the higher price). Our favorite flavors are Mama Lou’s Special and their All Meat pizzas. I have tried other flavors and everything tastes great. Plus there are Alfalfa sprouts and my favorite Arugula on the side that goes well with the pizzas.
Their Beef Salpicao is also our favorite, the soft and tender beef trimmings in the garlicky soy sauce. Oh so yummy!
My two little sons would always try something sweet whenever we eat and Mama Lou’s does not disappoint. They have their selection of cake slices and desserts that any sweet tooth would love.
Mama Lou’s is a place where you can bring your whole family because you are sure that everyone’s taste can be catered. My parents would usually criticize the food afterwards but not in Mama Lou’s. They only have good words and adoration for this resto which gives them good memories and dining experience in return.
The staff, I must say, are friendlier in BF branch. I don’t have not so good comments with Solenad and Evia but I just felt more at home with the original.
Nothing compares to the warmth of a house turned into a restaurant. Just like the warmth of a Mother to her family. ❤
I keep coming back to Mama Lou's. Their food is good and the selection is wide -- there's something for everyone to enjoy. A bit on the pricey side but the servings are good to share so it's ok. Ambiance is nice too, especially at night.
Will always go back for Mama Lou’s special. The combination of mango, prosciutto, arugula and alfalfa is just so perfect and will explode in your mouth! 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Comfort Italian food hidden in a quaint converted home. Consistent friendly service. Freshly made pizza and pasta. Family favorites are the truffle risotto (you can request for grilled chicken on top if you need protein), salpicao, prosciutto fettuccine, all meat pizza, and the Italian garlic sausages.
Good for gatherings as the food are for sharing. For pizza, you should try Mama Lou’s special. Mango in a Pizza? Try it!👍🏻
Truffle Mac & Cheese you may want to order one only to yourself. It’s so good, you might not want to share it😉
Aglio Olio - it’s so simple yet so delicious☺️

I went with my family to dine here for my birthday treat. The place was really cozy with its Italian-inspired interiors. My family was wondering why it wasn't packed with people, but I'm glad that the place was peaceful. We tried the Spinach and Goat Cheese Pizza. It was crunchy and flavorful at the same time. In fact, this is what my family liked overall. Topping it with arugala also made it better for me. We've also tasted the Vesuvio and the Spaghetti Bolognese. The Vesuvio was great although it didn't seem extraordinary. I did like its mix of mozzarella and tomato sauce, but it could be further improved. In my opinion, the Vesuvio was not flavorful enough. My parents also claimed that the noodles of Vesuvio together with the Spaghetti Bolognese were oddly hard. They also said that both were really sour, especially the Spaghetti Bolognese. It didn't fit their taste buds. For me, the Bolognese was a bit so-so. I did notice that it was too sour. Even the parmesan cheese couldn't help it. It would be better if you guys can add some flavors to give a contrast to the sourness of the tomato sauce. I've also tasted the Chicken Ricotta and the Chicken Parmegiana. The Chicken Ricotta's taste was a bit hard to understand. I could barely taste the lemon in the dish. My sister said that it was really bland. On the other hand, the Chicken Parmegiana was delicious due to the tomato sauce. It would be better if mozzarella was added to make it more of a signature dish.
The beverages were okay. Ice tea tasted average while the Raspberry tea tasted really good.
Service was adequate. Staff didn't seem passionate to serve us, despite the low number of customers that time.
Overall, my experience here was good. The pizza was absolutely delicious. There were plentiful servings for the main dishes. The servings for the pasta dishes were adequate, but can be further improved together with their taste. Price seemed a bit expensive. It's still unclear if we would come back, given the priceyness and the unusual taste of the dishes. I do hope you guys can improve!
It was our first time visiting this place and we were excited because we have read so many postitive reviews. We went there around 11am on a wednesday, we were waiting by the entrance because the sign on the podium says to press the button for assistance and that is exactly what we did. We pressed it 3 times and no assistance was given so we asked the guard and we were told to proceed directly in the restaurant.
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our food and the service. The ambience was perfect as we were celebrating our Anniversary. The only thing that disappointed me is that there were mosquitoes and one got in my plate.
One of the best in BF. Food's great. You can't go wrong. Ambience is nice esp in the al fresco area. I can eat here everyday with my Zomato Gold.
The food was really delicious and filling. The staff and their service was also at par with their excellent food. Will definitely eat here again.
I love mama lou's bf! Its so cozy and food is really good. First time to try the pork and its really good. The usual italian fare (pizza, pasta, mozarella sticks) is as expected - really good. However, i rated them 4 stars because they placed us in a secluded area and the servers seem masungit. We ate at 430 to 5pm which is not yet rush hour. Good thing that the food was enough to turn this into an overall positive experience.
The best place to get a legit Italian Pizza! I love going to Mama Lou's for my pizza craving. Been to BF and Circuit Makati Branch and I am always in awe with the service and the consistency of food quality. Every Italian Pizza place should be like Mama Lou's!
Love this place! Ambiance is homey, and classy. Staff understands and explains the menu, and is very helpful.
Food is amazing. Had their mac and cheese, and it was to die for!
Date-friendly, family friendly— foodie friendly!
Love Mama Lou’s!
Great food, cozy location. Waiters were a bit understaffed, we almost needed to follow up every order hence only 4 stars. Restaurant was fully fully packed, maybe that explains the needed follow ups. But we will definitely go back!
Food is superb! The truffle pasta & margherita combo is to die for, topped with a glass of home brewed iced tea & maybe a slice of apple pie if you’re not yet full. Their BF branch has always been a gem inside the subdivision for its home-y feel.
Fave italian restaurant here in BF!!! Reasonably priced and really great food. How i love the seafood aglip olio, squid ink pasta, gambas and the seafood bowl. Soooo goood!!!!Service is kinda slow though....
We ordered a lot of food but the dish that stayed with me was the Truffle Mac and Cheese! I don't have pictures but I can say that you can really taste the truffle oil used. Their pizza was good as well. We ordered the seafood pizza and the quattro formaggi.
We also ordered for our appetizer were calamari and mozza sticks. Their calamari was not that good and their sauce was bad (a mixture of soy sauce and vinegar I think) because it didn't go well with calamari.
Overall, I can say that their italian food was good. Just don't order anything that is not Italian.
The food was super delicious. Worth the price. The pizza is just amazing. When the Seafood Spaghetti Olio was served, I thought, I wouldn't be able to finish it all up. But when I started eating, I can't stop! Would love to come back here soon. The location's quite a challenge but again, it's worth the effort.

This restaurant never disappoints! We went here for dinner last February 13 and used our Zomato Gold. We had our favorite - Mama Lou’s Special and Quattro Formaggi! For pasta we got the truffle one. We were supposed to order more but felt like we were being “takaw-tingin” but I really wanted to get the Risotto Tartufo Funghi (one of my faves! Highly recommended)
The ambiance was OK, not too loud and the place was well-lit. We were seated inside and was able to enjoy the air-condition 😅
The pricing was not bad, it’s kind of affordable for two. If i remember it correctly, we paid less than 800 for 2 pizzas, 1 pasta, 1 beer and a bottomless iced tea!
PS: Sometimes their pasta don’t taste as good as when you first had it. I really liked the Truffle Pasta we had because it wasn’t too heavy, the cream and truffle was perfect. Some days the truffle are a bit too much / the pasta is a bit too creamy.
PPS: I wasn’t able to take a photo of the pasta as it went out last. Also our table was not big enough so we had to eat one pizza first and transfer it the other pizza plate just so they could find a place for the pasta in our table. Also photos were screen-grabbed from my IG story video hence it being blurry 😅
The first time I ate at Mama Lou's was in UP Town Center and I can say that my dining experience at the Mama Lou's branch in BF International was different - but in a good way. We enjoyed the cozy ambience which made us feel just at home. The food, as usual, was very superb and very delicious. We ordered the all meat pizza and the shrimp a'limone, and mama lou's iced tea for drinks. The servers were very attentive and friendly. The only thing that they could improve on is a more efficient and faster bill out process. Our bill took more than 10 minutes to process, and when we got our bill, there was a mistake in the bill so they had to take it back and reprocess it, which took another 10 mins. Hopefully, they would be able to improve on this. But all in all, we enjoyed our dining experience, and would love to come back to this branch again soon. 😊
Our family loves this place, its our no brainer choice for days we cant decide where to eat. Great value for money. Pizzas are superb. For pasta, I recommend the Shrinp Formaggio, Seafood Aglio Olio.
First time to dine here using my Zomato gold. I ordered vesuvio and I like it very much. The tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese combination is just perfect. And our free meal is the seafood pizza. For our dessert is apple pie which I find too sour for my taste. Will come back to try their other pasta and pizza.
Was able to avail of their 1+1 pizza via Zomato Gold. Fast serving naman however, the staff are kinda tagal to go to your table. Baka din because there's a lot of people. Overall, it was very okay!
Very good food for a reasonable price. Highly recommended! Staff are friendly and nice. The place is well-maintained. I really like their french onion soup, carbonara and beef salpicao. We will definitely visit again!
The food at Mama Lou’s is amazing and great value for money. I think I have found my new favorite pasta dish there now. The Italian Sardine Pasta is great. It tastes so fresh and vibrant. We also had the Pizza Salsiccia, Caesar Salad, Arrabbiata and Gambas. Everything was perfect. Can’t wait to eat there again.
Celebrated my brother's birthday here. They have great ambience and had several people. Their service was great but when it came to the bill I had to wait for several minutes for the change. Their Carbonara wasn't that creamy but we loved their Lasagna. Would also recommend trying their Mama Lou's Special Pizza. 💕
My favorite restaurant in BF. 10/10 would recommend. Everything I’ve ordered so far from all my visits here were good except for the truffle pasta which was a bit bland. The spinach with goat’s cheese pizza is the best.
This is our comfort-food-go-to place. We first fell in love with their signature pasta dish—Seafood Olio—and it has been our comfort food dish ever since. The BF branch (which I think is the first) has a homey feel since it was an old house converted into a restaurant (like other places in BF).
Was able to use Zomato Gold here. Great service as always. Been eating on this restaurant for so long. Truffle Mac n Cheese takes some time before it gets served. Sometimes, serving of the Salpicao varies. Too bad though their bottomless iced tea has doubled the price, from Php75 it's now Php150.
We love this place, haven't tried anything here that we didn't like. Good staff, Great food and ambiance. A wonderful place to eat and celebrate. Was here on my birthday this year and now our 10th wedding anniversary 😊❤️
I love their Truffle Mac n Cheese, plus their pizza choices are great too! Service is good plus the ambiance is homey. 😻 i will definitely come back 😍
The place has a homey vibe and great for casual dates. Their thin crust pizzas are great but the serving size of some of their dishes are too small for the price. If you want something filling, you'll never go wrong with the beef salpicao (comes with either mashed potato or rice). They also provide complimpentary bread with some olive oil and balsamic for dipping. It would have been great had the bread been hot out of the oven OR at least slightly warm. Nevertheless, we had a great meal and will be back again 😊
Our favorite cozy restaurant tucked somewhere in BF Homes. The place can get so crowded in the weekends, so we prefer to come here on weekday afternoons. Love their Truffle Risoto and mushroom chicharon ❣️
I highly recommend their best seller spinach pizza as well as the penne pesto! ❤❤❤ The staff are really accommodating and very professional. The ambience as well will make you feel comfortable. For a first timer, I'm giving a 5 star for this resto.
Mama Lou’s is definitely one of, it not, the best restaurant in BF homes. Every single time my friends and I visit, we always have an excellent experience from the moment we get to our seats to when we ask for the bill. Literally, whenever we have a bad day or bad news, eating here just brings out the good vibes from the good food.
My personal favorites would be:
1. Truffle Risotto
2. Quatro Formaggi
3. Truffle Mac n cheese
The variety of authentic Italian food is just excellent and exquisite. Moreover, the ambiance is pretty chill and homey, nothing too complex and over the board. It is always a pleasure dining here and will definitely come back in the months to come.
Mama Lou's is always a good place for family meals. Service is superb, food quality is consistently good, and the ambience feels like home.
Their poutine with bacon is a personal favorite!
Booking a table was quite easy. Osso bucco and rack of lamb was really good. The Italian Sardine pasta was yummmmmmyyyy. Service was nice too.
Our family really enjoys eating here. The food is consistently good and the atmosphere very homey and welcoming. We would recommend the pizzas - they are all delicious. All pasta dishes are also good but my kids specially like the mac and cheese. Escargot is really delicious too. Parking is usually ok. Excellent value for money. It's always full so better to make a recommendation.
We ordered the Mama Lou's Special and they serve it with arugula (?). It tastes really well when you roll up the thin pizza with the veggies in it. The pan fried sole fillet tastes well with the lemon sauce.
Very nice place. Everything we ordered was in point. Will come back for more. Also the staff are hospitable. Comfortable and relaxing... looking forward to our visit
I love this place because I have lots of choices. The food doesn’t disappoint too. It tastes so legit. That is why several people dine here specially on weekends. Be ready for the queue.
I would give this place a 4 and not a 5 for only two reasons.
Their food is very very good, their staff members are very accomodating.
Their specialities in my opinion are their Risotto, their pastas, and their pizza.
I wouldn't really get their meat products for they are a hit or miss. Which is why I wouldn't give them a full 5 stars.
The other one is the ambiance. I understand that it used to be a house and they are trying to keep it as close to its original conception as possible, but then it is very cramped and therefore you can really hear everyones conversation if they are loud.
So minus half a star for their meat products, and also half a star for the total ambiance.

we went last oct 13 bec i decided to celebrate my husband birthday here Mama Lou's Italian Kitchen.since i like my 1st dine here maganda ang service.

My family visited Mama Lou’s several times already. My favorites were the escargots and the pastas.
The place has 2 floors. Both floors are air conditioned.
But if you opt not to stay inside, there are tables outside of the resto with proper lighting and ventilation. You can feel the “home vibes” here at Mama Lou’s.
Wifi is also available here by the way.
FOOD :
4.5/5
Escargots are delicious! Love the garlic bits inside! The carbonara is creamy too! We also ordered pizza. The white cheese I think. It was also delicious. So far, for our several visits here, there was nothing in our orders that was not delicious. I love to eat here.
SERVICE :
4/5
The waiters were kind when taking orders. The serving of the food was generous too. The serving of foods takes for about 10-15 minutes. It’s worth the wait I promise.
AMBIANCE :
The lighting and air conditioning were good. You can feel the “at home” vibes here for sure. Especially when you eat outside the resto. The garage setup is good because of the lightings.
OVERALL :
4/5
Will always comeback here to try new dishes. Everything is good here at Mama Lou’s. They also have parking space along the street as well as a vacant lot in front of the resto. Try Mama Lou’s if you want to enjoy eating with your family and feel the “at home” vibe.
The pizza was surprisingly delicious, I like how crispy it was. The pasta I ordered was so so but the one my husband ordered was great. Will definitely come back to try other menu! I like the ambience too!
This is only the second time I visited Mama Lou’s Restaurant despite being near to our place. The place has nice ambiance most especially at night. Service was good, they were very attentive and focused on serving us. Food tastes really good and has big servings. A little bit pricey but it was well worth it because of the serving size.
Mama Lou's in BF is one of our go to casual dining places in the South. Their pizza varieties is a welcome change from the delivery pizza chains choices. The place (airconditioned area) is a bit small given the number of customers they serve but it's has a cozy and homey ambience well loved. They also have an al fresco area which is equally homey. The last time we went there was when we celebrated our baby's 100th day. It was a good experience overall.
I came across this resto when I was craving for pasta and researched about the best restos in the South. Mama Lou’s always came up in the list. It didn’t disappoint. We ordered pizza, pasta, and wine and we didn’t eat anything we didn’t like. A bit pricey but it’s definitely worth it ❤️
Love the steak and cheesecake
Ambiance is cozy and feels just like eating from home
Fast and friendly service
Took my love one for dinner to celebrate her birthday and it was a blast
She loves the food so much
I love everything they have! Fruilana salad is very light yet delicious. Their pasta is true to its italian roots - al dente indeed. Pizza is superb with its thin crust and ample toppings. Mac and cheese is good as expected. Now let's talk about the risotto - hands down my favorite! This dish is both simple and sophisticated. I like the combination of broth, butter, wine, parmesan flavors with the supple grainy texture of risotto making it a rich and creamy indulgence. The only item which bums me out is the sausage platter not because of the taste but bec of their small serving. The house blend iced tea is sublime with its basil garnish.
Service could use some improvement as the wait staff are perhaps exhausted easily with so many diners flocking here. The place is homey with its familiar furniture, soft lighting and cozy corners. They also have al fresco dining but i always dine indoors. Overall, i can eat here everyday if i could =)
It was my first time to visit and I super loved it! The New Truffle Pasta was super delicious! The smell, the taste and everything! I fell in love with the food they serve :) This is definitely one of the best restaurants I will always visit :) Looking at the menu itself makes me more excited to come back haha :)

Ahh it's been a while since my last review,been so busy and i forgot to do this the last time i went out.My boyfriend and I were just looking for an Italian restaurant because you know pasta is life😜 and we ended up at this place.So we ordered the Arrabiata,my favorite and the sausage pomodoro and the margherita pizza so i can only review so few.Lets start with the ambiance,well inside the resto it was relaxing I think,good interiors unfortunately,we ended sitting in the outside table which is in the pathway of the mall so not very relaxing but its ok.For the food,as a pasta lover especially Arrabbiata and i cook that too,hmmm its okay.I am not sure though it says sun-dried tomatoes,maybe it is but i could taste was the tomatoes from the can so the taste its ok but its kinda like something is missing i don't know maybe because it has no meat like the way i cook it with chicken.Then my partner offered me to taste the sausage pomodorro,I am not eating pork (but of course sometimes you need to break your own rule just to try something) and it was actually good,i just tasted a very small portion and the sauce is actually better than my Arrabbiata haha so thumbs up for that.For the pizza,we like that earthy flavor,well its cheese,the sauce and basil and i love basil.For the meat lovers,well i don't think this one's for you,maybe i just love veggies and herbs so i liked it.Price just at par with other Italian restaurant maybe for the pasta 20 or 30 pesos higher than the other pasta restaurants that i've tried but still reasonable.For the pizza yeah i think its very affordable for a whole gourmet pizza it's a thumbs up.Overall the experience was ok but not something I will go to every week for the taste. I am still giving it a 3.5.Sorry for the pictures btw,i forgot to take it before eating😜😂 and btw this was in UP towncenter but could not find it here,this is the only Mama Lou's i've searched.
To tell you I am not a fan of Italian cuisine like pizza or pasta (i prefer asian cuisine) BUT! when we ate at Mama Lou's BF I wanted to go back the next day. Each dish was very flavorful! the fruit shakes are very refreshing. the ambience outside was perfect 😻 Now I want to celebrate my birthday here next week 😍
Eating here feels like home. Feels like the food's prepared just for you + the serving is huge. The outside looks so nice specially at night!
Plus points for their Booky app discount!
Food Best Comfort Italian Food. My favorite is Mama Lous' Pizza. I always make sure that I will visit this place when I come home for vacation.
Staff Very Friendly and approachable.
Ambiance Homey!
Location Easy to find if you're living in the south area but I suggest more parking space and lightings.
Price Fair.

I've been dining at Mama Lou's even before it was Mama Lou's. The old restaurant was called Cafe Francais along Aguirre Ave., also in BF Homes Paranaque.
We used to hang out there for beer and the Cheese Platter, then I started bringing my wife there and she fell in love with their Beef Salpicao. Our kids love what is now called the Pizza Bianca (it had a different name back then).
My wife and I always split the Pumpkin Soup while my kids go for the Mozzarella sticks for starters.
My personal favorites are the Spaghetti Seafood Olio, Risotto Tartufo Funghi and the Pan Fried Beef Scallopini with al limone sauce (you have a choice of 3 sauces).
For dessert you can't go wrong with the Cheesecake.
You can also have private functions as they can close off portions of the restaurant, of course a reservation should be made as the place is always packed.
From the original Cafe Francais to their multiple branches truly they've come a long way

I really love the Mama Lou's signature pizza. The one with mango topping. at first, I thought it could be really weird and it might not be good to add mango in a pizza. And knowing myself, not a fruit lover. However, we still tried since it's their signature pizza. 😆 And it didn't fail me. it's really nice since the pizza is thin crust. The mango serves the chewy part when you eat the entire pizza. It's just really good! I should not forget to mentions n their pasta truffles. this is the bomb! The truffle pasta is my most favorite so far in Mama Lou's. You should definitely try this one! I guarantee that you will love it too.
Thank you BF Homes branch ❤️ every time we visit, everyone is always helpful and friendly. Especially to my daughter :)
Pizza is always scrumptious. The special and four cheese especially. Pasta always al dente.
Thanks again and keep up the good work! Thank you to the wait staff outdoors for always making my little one feel extra special whether via a coloring book or a free scoop of ice cream; and to Kuya Guard as well who’s always ready to assist. More success to all!
Ordered the Pan Seared Salmon Fillet. I was kind of expecting it to be cooked medium with that soft center but I got it well done. Although the salmon stayed moist and tender.
Service was good and prompt, although the server forgot to take down my colleague's order.
The ambiance was nice. Would have loved to be seated inside to avoid the road noise but they were fully booked. Will be back here again to try the other dishes. :)

Everything was perfect! Clam chowder was great. I highly recommend their Rollo di Pollo and Penne Pesto. I can also assure you that Mama Lou's Iced Tea is a must try!

My wife and I went here for our second wedding anniversary.
One problem in dining in BF is parking. But in Mama Lou's, they have an enclosed parking lot for customers that is also manned by two security personnels. This is one big pro considering some incidents involving thieves who break car windows to steal from parked cars along BF.
We ordered Mama Lou's Iced tea, mozzarela sticks, Italian sausage pomodoro and their all meat pizza.
The food we ordered wer brought to us within a reasonable time. The servers were very courteous and were always on standby.
As for the food, the mozzarela sticks were good, as expected. The pasta is perfectly cooked. The all meat pizza was so nice since they gave us arugula to break the monotony (my wife doesn't like veggies lol).
The overall experience was very good and the food is reasonably priced.
I will definitely go back and have a taste of their other stuff next time.
