Mama Lisa

Part pizzeria, part full-service Italian restaurant, this Mastic spot is a popular choice among local families.
The menu draws on Neapolitan traditions for inspiration. You might begin dinner with zuppa di mussels or a seafood salad and then move on to an entree of spaghetti with white clam sauce, veal picatta or scungilli marinara. For those who have trouble deciding, there are combinations such as ziti, ravioli, stuffed shells and manicotti.

The restaurant also caters and considers their 6-foot hero a specialty. "We don't make them; we build them," the menu reads.
