If you're planning to bring the family for a full-on Italian American dinner at Mama Roberto's on a Saturday night be prepared to wait. The food is good and everyone here in Mentor knows it. Sure it doesn't look like much from the outside, but the staff at Mama Roberto's is friendly and they keep the warm garlic knots coming. Portions are gigantic so don't feel bad splitting the entrees (or just taking a to-go box with your leftovers). Pizza is good but it's really the pasta entrees that have won my heart. It's hard for me to say no to ordering the penne pasta with broccoli, bacon, olive oil and garlic. Red pepper flakes add a bit of spice.
