pop-we Dinner Club Reviews Malara’s Italian Restaurant

Malara's Italian Restaurant in South O.

In a South Omaha neighborhood, there is what appears to be a house but it is not. This seemingly grey house on the corner, except for the Italian multi-colored awning is Malara’s Italian Restaurant hidden away off the main streets. The restaurant is located at 2123 Pierce Street, in an older part of the city. When you walk into Marlara’s there is a little waiting area with a bar. To the left is the hostess stand along with a few benches. There are statues and many pictures along the walls, mostly of family. There was an empty picture frame on the wall, which was reserved for the newest member of the family, who happened to be at the restaurant not even a week old.

This night I thought I would try the Chicken Parmesan that came with a vegetable, pasta and a salad. The chicken was moist and tender. Malara’s uses a sweet marinara. We also had an order of the ravioli’s in which I thoroughly enjoyed. They were crisp and the filling was delicious. I liked my dish and others enjoyed what they had. The staff was friendly and attentive.

After compiling the surveys from the other foodies the pop-we Dinner Club gives Malara’s Italian Restaurant: 4.18 star average on a scale of 1-5.
