Mamma Lucia (Silver Spring, MD)

When R. arrived in town for spring break, we headed straight from the airport to Mamma Lucia in Silver Spring for lunch. This is our favorite pizza place in town. I discovered this restaurant when I used to live within walking distance from it, and even though I no longer live around the corner, we still love to come back for pizza every time he's in town. In addition to pizza, Mamma Lucia serves other Italian fare as well, and though I find their pastas a little greasy, they are quite tasty. We also love the ambience of the restaurant and the fact that they play Italian music. R. says it makes him feel like he's in Italy.


Our lunch.

We each got a slice thin crust pizza but they also have the thick crust variety as well, and I must say, I'm definitely not a fan of thick crust pizza (just not a dough kind of person) but I LOVE Mamma Lucia's thick crust pizzas! We took advantage of the 70-degree weather and enjoyed our pizzas outside. What a nice start to spring break!

A word of caution about Mamma Lucia, though. We've been to one of their other locations (in Bethesda) but the food was not nearly the same as the stuff they serve in Silver Spring!
