Mama’s Italian House restaurant in Shreveport announced in a Facebook post on Thursday that it will be closing.
This is sad news for all the fans of the place, including me. Mama’s is almost two years old, and I had a great experience when I visited in August.
The restaurant will be open for about 10 more days.
