Make sure you get their extra large pizza with pepperoni, onion, sausage, and mushroom. Yes it’s more expensive than alternatives like Domino’s or Pizza Hut but the quality and taste are definitely way better! Fun fact, this restaurant used to be bigger, but I think they split the space with the new restaurant next door on the left.

We ate at Mama Lucia's for the first time last night and it was an incredible experience! Our server, Kelvin, was incredible. We enjoyed the toast and "Jimmy" sauce that was given as we sat down. When Kelvin learned that is was our first time, he went out of his way to share about the food. We had the fired ravioli and it was perfect! We shared the Chicken Florentine and it was so fresh and outstanding. Kelvin even threw in some garlic knots and were superb. We come to Bethesda annually and this will be a must eat place for us from now on.

They have $10 spaghetti promotion now, except for the ones with seafood. I choose Shrimp linguine with lemon garlic sauce, I thought it too sour, but overall okay.
