About

Whether you are eloping at the courthouse, or hosting dinner for 75 after a ceremony in one of the neighborhood's charming churches, Mamma Maria can accommodate. Located in the oldest public square in America, Mamma Maria is just steps from the Freedom Trail and Paul Revere's House.


History aside, many of our spaces boast sweeping views of the Boston skyline and provide the ultimate backdrop for a wedding feast. Our menus are seasonal Italian highlighting local seafood and New England produce in the summer while winter brings more braised meats and root vegetables.


Our expert team has worked with brides of all sorts: some planning a destination wedding from across the globe, other history buffs in search of a Revolutionary War atmosphere, and yet many are looking for an elegant setting to honor their Italian lineage. We even hosted one sweet bride whose parents had their first date at Mamma Maria!


Mamma Maria is a AAA award winning restaurant with an unparalleled Italian wine list to match. We were also listed on Eater's Top Private Event Venues for 2021.

The close relationships we have with our vendors make it easy to outsource other special details such as a cake and flowers. Our brides often remark how easy it was to plan with us. One bride was quoted as saying, "I just had to buy my dress and show up!"


If you are in search of an intimate reception filled with history and tradition, look no further.

Mamma Maria also hosts rehearsal dinners and bridal shower luncheons. We also are able to cater your special event at your home or other venue.

AMAZING Rehearsal Dinner!

We had the most memorable Rehearsal Dinner at Mamma Maria. The staff was incredible and the food was phenomenal. We can’t wait to go back and try more items on the menu!!

The Perfect Rehearsal Dinner Venue!

We could not be happier to have chosen Mamma Maria for our wedding rehearsal dinner. We had 2 rooms for a max of 75 people and the space was perfect: 50 in the large Verdi room and one large table of 20 for the younger adults in the Terrace room. Phoebe was a star at organising everything and gave responsive, helpful and detailed answers to our countless questions to help alleviate our stress of planning. The restaurant was also flexible to make substitutions to their set menu to suit our guests’ needs.

On the night itself, service was flawless and the food quality and ambience were unbeatable. Everyone left happy, full and excited for the rest of the wedding weekend.

The only issue we had that we paid $150 for a projector to show a slideshow of family photos throughout the night. We put a lot of effort into making the slideshow which disappointingly turned out to be wasted effort. The projector did not actually fit between the tables without completely blocking the waitstaff, so it had to be removed at the start of the evening. The restaurant should have known in advance that it would not fit with our table layout. The manager did eventually agree not to charge us for it, but it took some some unnecessarily uncomfortable discussions / demands from us when this should have been an automatic offer from the restaurant to not charge for something they couldn’t provide.

Nonetheless, I can’t imagine a better venue for a wedding rehearsal dinner, and no one need look anywhere other than Mamma Maria for theirs!

We had a wedding reception here with about 60 people and it was the perfect choice for this number of people. If you're looking for an intimate reception with great food and at a reasonable price (for a wedding!!), I would highly suggest you consider this restaurant. Jennifer was great to work with and had a ton of ideas of how to customize the space. She was so attentive to detail, as if it was her own wedding. She was extremely responsive over email as well, a huge plus as we were planning from long distance. We bought the restaurant out for a reception starting at 12, with a cocktail hour downstairs and meal upstairs. Having the entire restaurant to ourselves really made it feel like a family gathering rather than just a restaurant meal. It was defintely worth having a morning wedding to accomplish this within our budget. Not to mention the North square atmosphere and lighting in the afternoon is amazing! We brought in our own table decorations, which the staff graciously put out for us, but even without our decorations the restaurant looked stunning. They brought in a ton of candles and other decor which really lit the place up. The maitre d' was extremely warm and welcoming and all the waitstaff were exceptionally kind. And the food! I can't say enough good things about the food. You can be sure your wedding will stand out to your guests as probably THE best wedding meal they have ever eaten. Mamma Maria's really went above and beyond the minimum, and did way more than their contract obligated them to. It was a perfect event, nothing but good vibes about the venue. I am already looking forward to an anniversary dinner here :)
