Review of Mama Melrose's Lunch/Dinner

We ate at Mamma Melrose for the first time in August 2013 as part of the Fantasmic Dinner Package. The food was ok - not the best but certainly not the worst. The restaurant was super busy and this was evident in the service. Our main courses were delivered before they had cleared away the appetizer plates creating some juggling for us and the server. However, looking around the restaurant, we saw several tables with dirty dishes. To my surprise, the servers were also bussing their own tables. So, not only were they required to attend to occupied tables, they were clearing and setting vacant tables. I don't think it takes a rocket scientist to figure that you could hire some bus people to clear dirty dishes and set tables to keep them turning over quicker and perhaps alleviating some of the wait time.

We stayed at GF during last week of August 2013. The main building is beautiful. We stayed in an outer building (Conch Key) which we requested in advance. We had views of MK and fireworks every night from our balcony and were just steps away from the boat launch and Narcoossee's. The only (somewhat negative) aspect is having to walk to main building for monorail/busses and Gaparilla's to refill mugs. However, our experience was wonderful. Once you stay at GF, you don't want to stay at other Disney resorts.
Pros:
Location, beautiful grounds, amenitiesCons:

We loved our dinner here. Food and service were great. We could not finish everything as the portions are generous. The dining room is nicely themed and tables are not too close together. I highly recommend the pork chop and the sweet potato bread pudding.

In all of our 30 trips to WDW, we never ate here before. I am so glad we did. The food was very nice and portions very big. We loved the outdoor seating area which is extensive. It was 90 and super humid, but it was quite pleasant under the trees. It was a little difficult to get our food as the party in front of us were trying to wheel a stroller in the pick up area which is small. We will definitely eat here again.

We always end up at the one in Florida, so we tried it out here!! We walked in and were seated within 5 minutes without a reservation!! It got busy right after we were seated.
My husband and I split the nachos and a Caesar salad. The kids had the kid meal ribs, which is always a big hit with them!!!
The food is always good, and we always enjoy eating here. California wasn't any different!!! I just always find it a bit pricey...
Pros:
Great atmosphere, good foodCons:

The place is nice, and the service was very good. I had a chicken burrito that was melt in your mouth delicious!!!! I loved it!!! My husband had tacos that were, in his words, ok. The kids enjoyed their typical kids meals.
They have a balloon animal guy, who was phenomenal!!! He was at our table for about 20 minutes when we first arrived. He was charming, funny, and very entertaining. The kids loved him!!!
The location is right in the middle of DDT which is great!!
Pros:
Awesome food, great staff and locationCons:

We ate here last week, and it wasn't crowded. Service was fast, and we had no trouble getting a table. My son and I split the fish which was more than enough for two!! I thought it was tasty and fresh. My husband had the corn dog, which was OK. My daughter had and loved the kids power pack lunch.
The location is great for sitting and relaxing...lots to watch!! All in all I would definitely recommend it!!

We ate here for lunch on Monday. The food was really good. My husband had been dying to try Walt's chili, and he was NOT disappointed!! All of our choices were great. The service was very friendly and attentive. I liked being right there on Main Street!!
Try the s'mores dessert!!! It was awesome!!!!

We had lunch here in Tuesday and loved it!!! Three out of the four of us ate here. I had the turkey sandwich, my daughter had the kids power pack lunch, and my son had the clam chowder. All were very tasty and a decent value. The bread is EXCELLENT!!!
I really enjoyed eating on the wharf. There was a lot of shade available, and we enjoyed the strolling musicians.
