This is the place to have some really good Italian food! Their menu is wide enough to suit anyone's pallet. The dishes are very delicious! Presentation is nice. The environment is warm and inviting. You really can't ask for much better of an establishment. The staff is also very good at their jobs seems to be well trained and very friendly. All around great place to spend the evening and you should go try this place out for yourself.

Tried this place on a whim today passing through town, it did not disappoint! Being from NY I am a pizza snob, and this was the best pizza I have tried since moving to California. Salads, as well as gelato were also delicious. 10/10!

They best Italian-american food in the High Desert and even better than many Italian restaurants down the hill. Their focaccia bread is complimentary and delicious, one of the best dishes is there chicken scallopini with extra sauce for the scallopini and they even have gelato ice cream. I highly recommend this restaurant and even drive over 1 hour sometimes to take some good to-go because it's that delicious. Enjoy!

Mama Carpino’s is truly a great jewel of a restaurant for Apple Valley. This is Italian dining that’s authentic and truly wonderful. All the food selections have been noteworthy. This is a restaurant I would go out of my way to bring family and friends to.

It was my first time at this establishment and it did not disappoint! As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed and sat pretty quickly. Our server, Peyton, was very attentive and took our orders in a timely manner. And the food??? ABSOLUTE FIRE. I was so surprised by the pizza. I haven’t had such good pizza in a long time. We got two pastas, the 5 cheese ravioli and the papas special, both of which were flavorful and delicious. Everything was great. Shout out to our sever Peyton. We will be coming back!!

The building is very clean, the food is great and very flavorful, and the staff if very kind amd helpful. It is what you would expect of a restaurant at this price point but it isnt stuck up to where you feel like you need to dress up to eat there. It was my first time eating eggplant and it was very my favorite part of my dish. (I ordered Mama's special plate) If you have the money, its a wonderful place to eat.
