Not Back to it’s Old Glory

Pros:

Great Bread

Cons:

Service terrible- changes to menu not good- used to be one of favorites, not anymore- empty drink glasses and I substituted chicken on my pasta and they couldn’t even cut it, Calamari presentation is cheap, workers are tired and overwhelmed- I would not spend the money

We had dinner at Mama Melrose’s, and while there was it anything wrong with the food it was just ok. The ambiance is adorable, our server was great, but there wasn’t anything that made us feel like we need to go back.

Pros:

Ambiance

Cons:

It was ok, not great

My husband and I had a great lunch here last week. He had Chicken Parmesan and I had Shrimp Campanelle. We had Calamari to start. Food was all wonderful. Our waitress was Barbara and she was super. Food might be pricey but it's worth it.

Pros:

Food quality

Cons:

small table

We have slowly been trying the different sit down locations and Mama Melrose\\'s turn finally happened. We know that it hasn't gotten stellar reviews but wanted to give it a go. Things started going down as son as we checked in. We did mobile check in 20 minutes early and then waiting until 25 minutes AFTER our reservation time to be called. Once inside, we realized that there were many open tables. Maybe short staffed? Once seated it took a long time to have our server come to our table and even longer to get two glasses of water, as it was a really hot day. We got the Caprese and Caesar salad and a Margherita pizza to share. Across the board- there was no flavor in anything. The tomatoes in the Caprese were not ripe and the mozzarella felt like something I have grabbed at the store. The Caesar salad tasted like a Dole bagged salad and the pizza was blah. Definitely not a place we would be returning to.

Pros:

Good for people who like basic food and no surprises

Cons:

So much better tood a stone\\'s thro from them.

If you are a fan of Italian food, stop what you’re doing and add this to your agenda! I was told this place was not enjoyable but I now think this may be a go to in the future! I absolutely loved the pasta and the break service! Who doesn’t love the carbs! Call me crazy, but the dividers that have been added to the booths because of the world crisis made our dining experience intimate. They took care of all our requests in the speediest matter! I adored this location! The only reason it didn’t get a perfect 10 is because they were out of a number of beverages (alcoholic & non-alcoholic)

Pros:

Great pricing, lots of carbs and bread service, speedy service, delicious!

Cons:

Out of a number of beverages

My friend and I went here on the first night of our trip for a kick-off dinner, and we were pleasantly surprised by the dishes we got. Italian is her favorite food and with us being from NY and NJ, we KNOW Italian food lol. I got the Shrimp Campanelle and she got the Polenta Cake, and both were so fresh and flavorful. We had STRONG cocktails too (I think we both got margaritas), but they were delicious as well. We went a little on the early side (our reservation was 5:35pm), and the restaurant was pretty peaceful while not being totally dead. I would absolutely recommend this as a good sit-down spot to get away from crowds, but its not the most adventurous menu out there.

Pros:

Fresh food, good service, strong drinks, relaxing atmosphere

Cons:

Only a couple menu options were a little different from traditional Italian dishes you can get ANYWHERE

A few days ago we had a late lunch MAMA MELROSE'S restaurant a few days ago. It was our only meal that day. shortly after dining, I got horrible food poisoning. Vomiting, stomach cramps, nausea. The next day I couldn't go to park even we had a reservation. I slept about 20 hours, took a bunch of meds, and was sick for 2 days. My husband seems to be ok, but we had different entrees. My entree was shrimps with pasta. It never happened to me in Disney before.

Pros:

My husband was ok

Cons:

food poisoning
