Mama Mimi’s Take N Bake Pizza

I got a «Greek Salad «last night. What a joke. It was basically a bowl of lettuce with maybe a teaspoon of something white witch may have been Feta Cheese and a couple of California ripe olives. If you don’t know what a Greek Salad is don’t list it on your menu.

Very much recommend this pizza shop. I came in 30 minutes till close and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They made sure I understood well how their take and bake process works and made me a great pizza and calzone. The restaurant was incredibly clean and I loved how you could see everything that was going on in the kitchen. Very preferable compared to local chain pizza.

I absolutely love this place. I have a big green egg and enjoy making lots of different things on my grill. This place offers the opportunity to build your own gourmet pie and take it home and bake it fresh yourself. Not only are the pies good they also offer salads, cookies and lasagna so one meal can be picked up in one stop. It is nice to have the variety of toppings to choose from as trying to replicate this at home for only one or two pizzas on your own would cost a fortune. A great alternative to the Luke warm pizza delivery.

Wow! Excellent service! Just walking in the shop I knew it would be good because it smelled amazing! Chris was great both on the phone and in person. My order was ready when I got there, and when Chris found out it was my first visit, he threw in an order of breadsticks and made sure I knew how to use the parchment paper and gave me recommendations on cook times.
We got the primo veggie pizza, a pepperoni and pineapple calzone, the field greens salad, and the big cookie as a meal deal. May I say first that everything tasted and smelled very fresh. I pleasantly noticed a lack of saltiness that other chains have. This food wasn’t salty, it was flavorful. You could taste the veggies and the cheese! The red sauce wasn’t soupy. it was full of fresh tomatoes. I will definitely be back to try the lasagna.

We all know that pizza in a brick oven is best, but if you can’t have that, then have a Mama Mimi’s! It’s a very well executed «take & bake» concept meaning they prep your pizza and you finish it off at home in your oven. You can order online or by phone and they’ll have your yums ready for pick-​up in about 20 minutes. Mama Mimi’s has some really inventive topping offerings which include their fancy «spa» pizzas. Not only can you pick-​up a pizza but you can get a salad, calzone, lasagna, breadsticks and even cookie to bake as big as your head. The lasagna is super meaty – I think they even put ham in it?! It smells like fresh ingredients and pungent pizza dough when you walk in and the guys working there are always super-​friendly. There are some coupons out there for meal deals as well as BOGO pizza offers if you join their email list or follow them on social media.

I bought a Groupon for $ 19, which gave us a BOAT LOAD of food: Large pizza, Cesar Salad, calzone, huge cookie, and a complimentary pack of breadstix since it was my first visit. The staff were super friendly and you can watch them make your pizza while you wait. Baking the food was easy and no hassle. Now, the quality of the food… A-​OK is probably the best way to put it. I felt there was way too much spinach on the veggie pizza, the cheese was thick and wanted to jump off the crust, and the calzone was too bready and greasy. Yes, it was alot of food for a good price, but it was alot of just OK food, that I probably won’t hurry back to buy anytime soon.

At first, I was reluctant to try take’n bake pizza because 1. im not good at cooking 2. i don’t trust my cranky oven.
The service was friendly. Even though I got there 5 minutes before closing, the staff gave me a warm welcome. He was really helpful to us who had no clue about the menu and how to bake a pizza. THANK YOU!!!
The pizza was delicious. i don’t remember what I ordered. SOmething with chicken. Toppings were generously tossed on my large pizza. The sauce was outstanding with a kick of spicy.
I will definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

Not for me. Got the moltansanti and it was pretty bland. Got the breadsticks too but also, bland. Won’t go back.

What a fantastic pizza option. Was greeted kindly when I visited the store and they were very helpful with explaining the process and what everything was all about. For some reason I expected them to all be pre-​made, just un-​cooked. Nope. Completely made to order. Very cool. Taking it home and baking it myself was quite fun. Started off with some breadsticks, then threw the pizza in. Turned out fantastic. Sauce is good, the toppings are generous, and the crust crisped up very nicely. Sure you can get a regular take-​out pepperoni for about the same price, but you really get a lot for the money if you bake it yourself!

We were in the mood for some pizza and were tempted to pick one up at a well known chain. I’m glad I happened to notice Mama Mimis when I was searching. There were so many good sounding options to choose from and all the ingredients were high quality. It tasted so good coming right out of the oven. Great choice to class up the ol’ pizza at home.

I love this location! Staff is alway friendly, the food always looks presentable, prices are fair, there is plenty of parking, and yes, the pizzas actually taste great! You can bake them up or throw them on the grill. Pick up one of their delicious salads and your meal is complete!

Always use fresh and good quality ingredients! I am not a fan of pepperoni pizza (don’t judge me!). But I’m a fan of Mama Mimi’s pepperoni pizza at least!
I also like their house salad; delicious dressing and a very generous portion.
Finally the TIRAMISU!!! The most authentic tiramisu EVER! Not too sweet, and effortless taste!
Staff here are always very friendly, and often they offer trial-​sized dishes — like lasagna, which is great by the way.
You can’t go wrong unless you mess up with baking :-p

The meat lasagna is great. The staff was friendly. The ingredients always taste great. The best take and bake I have ever had.

The Tuesday night pizza train pulled into Mama Mimi’s this week.
Tuesday pizza nights have become a routine of picking up a pie, letting the aroma get my taste buds going on the car ride home and then immediately popping the box open and devouring it with the wife in front of the TV with a glass of wine. As a creature of habit, Mama Mimi’s presented a tough pill to swallow — no bar to sit at while I waited, no aroma on the ride home, no instant gratification. Instead, I had to preheat an oven and then do the «does it look done» routine after 8 minutes. Oh, then there’s waiting for it to cool down, cutting it up and then, finally, the payoff…
Mama Mimi’s rates an A-​plus for the selection and quality of toppings (and creativeness of pizzas on the menu). Gluten free is also a nice option. We had the pepperoni trio (with shrooms, of course). I figured we also had to try one of the «Award Winners», so we fired up a small Mama’s Marmelletta Amore (great toppings, but the Gorgonzola was a little over-​powering at times — a feta would’ve been my choice). The sauce is quite good, not exceptional. Ratios are fine (maybe a little too much cheese/​not enough sauce on the pep). The crust, while decent, just left me thinking «yep, that was take and bake» — nothing that was done in a wood-​fired oven. If you’re getting two mediums (or larger), you may have space issues in your oven. .. .I was able to cram the medium and the small onto one rack. I didn’t want to stack the racks for fear of an uneven bake.
If you’re a fan of take and bake, give up the Papa Murphy’s immediately and get into Mama Mimi’s. Maybe I’m just too lazy for take and bake. Had the crust been spectacular, I could’ve been a convert. However, from now on, I’ll stick to letting the restaurant do the cooking.

my wife and I went in and got a pizza last night had the Honey-​Wheat crust and it was GREAT!!! We also had Breadstix and I am not sure if my wife had any because I inhaled them I was dipping them in the Cesar Dressing. I don’t even like Cesar dressing and this is the best dressing I have ever had!!! Becca helped us helped us and that’s one of the biggest reasons why I am writing this, Not just because our pizza and breadstix were INCREDIBLE but her alone would keep me coming back. She was so friendly and helpful!!! Thank you so much for everything, if Becca reads this. You are great!
We are talking about getting pizza again tonight!!!
THANKS

I was coming back from Worthington and decided to give their Father’s Day lasagna special a try. What I wasn’t expecting was attractive (yes, cute boys) staff and a delicious Summer Spinach salad.
We had the meatball lasagna (wish I had ordered the Veggie, but it wasn’t my choice) so I could argue it was one of the plainer of lasagna’s but it sure did pack flavor! The bread sticks weren’t like ones I’m used to, but tasted good enough to eat.
My only complaint is that the salad was so good, I had it eaten before we even made the lasagna the next night! It def. wasn’t «family» size, but still tasted scrumptious with feta and spinach!

I went to Mama Mimi’s this weekend for the first time in a couple of years, so I figured it was time for an update.
I’m leaving the three-​star rating, because the pizza’s still pretty good — I love the large topping selection, and the crust is perfectly crunchy-​thick. I think, though, either my memory of the salads is incorrect, or they’ve gotten worse. Was the house dressing always this… thick? I’ve never seen a thick vinaigrette before. And the Greek salad had (gasp) California black olives instead of kalamatas. Cardinal sin there. Furthermore, the take-​and-​bake chocolate chip cookies have almost no flavor. My wife and I bought two of them, thinking there’s no way they could be bad, but we agreed they’re missing something essential. Toll House are far better, even the ready-​made kind. As I type, my wife is making some frosting to put on our remaining cookie to give it a little flavor.
I also ordered online this time, and the process was difficult and counterintuitive. They’re obviously using a generic ordering setup instead of one that’s custom-​made for the company.
With so many great pizza places in town, one visit to Mama Mimi’s every couple of years is probably going to be the limit for me.

Oh Mama this is some good pizza! ;)
My fav is the polpetina grande (meatballs!) and the greek salad. Can’t forget about the tiramisu! Its is arguably the best I’ve ever had. Also, a baking Mama Mimi’s warms up my little house and makes it smell delicious — this makes it worth the effort every time!

Phew. I like it, I like it. This pizzeria has a fantastic concept. I love their style altogether. But there’s something missing every single time. However, I don’t know who to blame: my craptastic oven or Mama Mimi’s.
I’ve tried three different types of pizzas from here.
Pizza #1: Honey Wheat dough, pesto sauce, fresh mozzarella cheese, and fresh tomatoes.
Verdict: Totally burned up in my oven. Set of the smoke alarm. Cat freaked out. The part that wasn’t burnt tasted like a cracker. The whole thing just wasn’t right.
However, the free pizza sticks that they gave me (with dipping sauce) was pretty amazing.
Pizza #2: Honey Wheat dough, regular red sauce, their regular cheese blend, and sliced pepperoni.
Verdict: The pepperoni brought the fire, but it was rubbery. The crust still tasted weird to me, and the bottom still burnt in my oven (although I do take full fault for this). My boyfriend tells me not to get the honey wheat dough next time.
Pizza #3: Regular dough, regular sauce, regular cheese. DELI pepperoni. I left it in the oven for literally 3 minutes.
Verdict: Very tasty! The pepperoni curled up and was crispy. The sauce definitely had a great flavor to it and the crust was more my style.
Wish for MM’s: taste test ingredients? I docked a star because it took me three darn tries to finally get the pizza right. So frustrating. Also, it’s not exactly satisfying as a hot pizza and cold beer type combo… it’s more satisfying for that «I need a good quick/​cheap dinner fast!» sort of feeling.

If you’re walking in to Mama Mimi’s in search of inexpensive and instantly gratifying pizza, you’re in for a sore disappointment: in most circumstances, Mama sells her pizzas uncooked. No wonder the staff is always standing around doing nothing!
Once you wrap your mind around the D.I.Y. notion here, Mama Mimi’s a sold choice if you’re in search of gourmet pizzas at not-​so-​gourmet prices. Toppings like capers, artichokes, sun-​dried tomatoes, scallions, and feta cheese make the menu truly one of a kind and worth the trip, even if there’s still work left to be done when you get home. I recommend preheating your oven as soon as you leave to pick up the pizza so you’ll be ready to bake in no time.
Mama’s also offers a variety of pizzas with pre-​selected toppings that cannot be found anywhere else in the city. The parma pesto chicken is a personal favorite of mine, and the Wing Ding tastes so much like an actual buffalo wing that its almost freaky. For being considered «lighter» options, the «Spa» pizzas, such as the spinach Green Goddess or The Mediterranean, are amazing as well.
The next time you’re in the mood for pizza, I challenge you to get off your lazy ass, heat up the oven, and make a trip to Mami Mimi’s. You won’t regret it!
