About This Spot

Stepping into Mama Mea's Pizza & More feels like finding a warm corner in downtown Dover where familiar faces gather and the inviting hum of conversation fills the air. It’s the kind of place where the pace slows just enough to savor the shared moments and the comforting scents of Italian-inspired cooking drifting from the kitchen. The welcoming crew and the tidy, well-kept dining space create an atmosphere that’s both relaxed and quietly uplifting.

Here, meals unfold with an easy, unpretentious pleasure. Whether you’re seated with family or dropping in after a long day, the menu offers a broad embrace—from pizzas that balance classic flavors with unexpected toppings to hearty pastas that reward with each forkful. The dishes carry a homemade touch that speaks to care and tradition without pretension. The side salads and crisp fried pickles add that layer of fresh and indulgent that’s just right, while the well-rounded selection of appetizers invites sharing and lingering conversation.

This is a spot that fits snugly into the rhythm of small-town life yet opens the door to little luxuries—fried raspberry cheesecake and chocolate chip pizza among them—that remind visitors why comfort food has its own special kind of magic. It’s easy to imagine longtime locals and visitors alike returning, not just for a reliable meal but for the warmth of a place that feels like a friendly nod from a neighbor.

Whether you’re nursing a cold cider or savoring the familiar partnership of a medium all meat pizza and crisp side salad, the experience here is quietly rooted in connection. Mama Mea’s offers a genuine slice of homespun hospitality where the focus is as much on being together as on what’s on your plate.

I've eaten here twice in the past two years (I visit from out of state) and I've thoroughly enjoyed the food here. First time was with 8 people, and not one complaint in my group. The last time just 2 of us, and still no complaints. Great food! If you like the menu you'll love the food!

While Visiting my son and his family at Fort Campbell, we took a short trip to Fort Donelson with the G-babies and found Mama Mea's as our linner (lunch/dinner) stop. Everything was fresh and delicious. We had the pepperoni pizza, buffalo wings, side salad and bacon cheese sticks, those were a plus plus for the G-babies. Service was excellent. The restaurant was clean. We will definitely go back when visiting TN in the future.

This place was amazing, the first thing was walking on the door and seeing the 10 Commandments, it was clean and staff was prompt and super friendly, dining area and restrooms were clean and inviting. The food was amazing, we ordered the bacon ranch cheesesticks which was like a 10 inch pizza and the were awesome they came with a side of ranch to dip in but really didn't need it cause the sauce on the cheesticks was ranch, the salad was packed full, and the wrap, WOW it came with lettuce, onion, cheese, bacon, tomatoes (which I don't like) and chicken grilled or crispy I had grilled, it was huge I ended up eating only half my wrap also came with homecut fresh French fries. Kuddos to this restaurant I will definitely drive 2.5 hours again just to eat here.

Our group stopped at Mama Mea's for dinner while staying in Dover, TN on a motorcycle trip through western Tennessee. The service and food were both excellent. My diet demanded a salad which was great but the pizza and pasta everyone else ordered looked and smelled fantastic. I would eat here again.

The food here is good and decently priced. I would recommend if you are passing through our little town. I had fried mushrooms, chicken fettuccine alfredo and a side salad with raspberry vinaigrette. It also comes with a piece of garlic bread.

Enjoyed a great meal with my son and friends. Great atmosphere. Great service. The food was amazing. Definitely worth the ride out from Clarksville!

A friend and I have tried several of their meals on our trips to Dover . Very friendly staff and ever menu item we have had has been very good.

The food was decent, got a grilled chicken club, not a pizza unfortunately. The server I had was either oblivious to the fact I had been sitting at a table per their “seat yourself” sign, or was just ignoring me. A completely different server had to get me a menu, drink, and a refill at one point. Would like to go back and try the pizza though.
