Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Not a lot more to say than what many others before me said about this Italian restaurant. Really passionate, authentic and friendly people that makes you feel welcomed from minute one. Yesterday's birthday party of a very good friend of mine was a success. Thanks for the afogatto."
"A good pizza, the crust was slightly chewy, toppings were nice especially the ham and pepperoni and the pizza slightly spicy. I did think the cheese and sauce was lacking a bit though."
"Went there for lunch. Very delicious original Italian Margherita. Forgot the name of the other dish but it was buffalo cheese on bread slices with rocket, that was very tasty as well. The staff is very friendly. It's a small place, we were advised by the staff to book in advance if coming for dinner especially on a weekend. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a real taste of Italy in Bedford. I will be visiting again soon with the whole family."
"I love Mamma Concettas! Probably my favourite authentic Italian pizza spot in Bedford. The service is warm and friendly. Every server always knows everything about the menu which is amazing for someone like me with a severe allergy as they can easily and confidently tell me how they can cater to my needs. Would recommend to anyone to go here. Just one of the best places around!"
"Amazing experience in a cosy Italian restaurant. Ordered parmigiana to share and pizza, struggled to finish as portions were abundant. Salad had a dressing which isn't common for Italian style (usually is olive oil and either lemon or vinegar) next time will ask while ordering! Overall great experience and will definitely go back. Nice staff too."
"Been lucky enough to sample a lot of Italian cuisine over the years in Italy, this is one of the best I’ve had. Molto Bene… Unreal flavours…"
"Cannot fault this restaurant, Alfonso and the team! We unfortunately had a really bad experience with JustEat who didn’t send a driver with the capacity to deliver 6 pizzas. After 2 hours of waiting they decided to deliver half of the order, the driver said another driver will deliver the rest, however this never happened. After phoning the restaurant they had been attempting to get our order cancelled with JustEat so we could be refunded to avoid disappointment but in the end cooked us fresh food and we collected it. Alfonso and his team did not need to do this but it just goes to show the service they offer and that they care about their customers. The food was delicious and we will definitely be returning - only this time, we will order directly with them!"
"First visit to Mamma Concetta, and it was a great one, had a massive meatball starter, was full after that but not so much that I didn't enjoy my proper delicious, authentic quattro stagioni. It came with the toppings in split (clue's in the name - reps the 4 seasons), one in each quarter, which is the way but I was unaware of that haha, I rearranged accordingly. The decor is awesome, it's got that tight and buzzy vibe, and the service is fantastic."
