pizza Winner Mama’s Pizza 1200 N. Fielder (817) 795-8700 • mamaspizzas.net MAMA’S PIZZA winning Readers’ Choice All Star awards seems to be a recurring theme – this is the third straight year the eatery has taken top honors in our poll. President Jordan Scott says the restaurant takes pride in what goes into its awardwinning pies. “Mama’s Pizza specializes in an ‘East Coast’ style pizza that is made fresh daily using the best ingredients we can get our hands on,” he says. “Our dough is made daily as needed. We use 100-percent real cheese made from milk, quality meats and fresh produce to top our exceptional pies.” Mama’s pizzas are baked in hot brick ovens, giving them a just-right browned crust that is brushed with melted garlic butter. “Our dedication to quality ingredients and equipment has made Mama’s the pizza of choice in Fort Worth and Tarrant County for decades,” Scott says. “In fact, some call it a Fort Worth institution.” Mama’s now carries chicken wings, a grilled chicken salad and new toppings that will make your mouth water.
