Mama Melrose's Ristorante Italiano in Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World | Disney Dining Review

[@nancys.fromnh520]

My daughter Hailey was your server, she told me that night she waited on you both and said you were both delightful. So glad you enjoy your experience with her.

Thanks so much, she was lovely!

Enjoying the videos!

Good review. Italian is always tough because everyone has their favorite local joint that nowhere else stacks up to. We put off Mama Melrose for years and years but when we finally went we were a little suprised to find it above average.

So true

Another great review video. Your frankness and honesty is much appreciated!

We had the a similar experience just that the food used to be better quality than it currently is.

Hi Leslie & Dan, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

We finally tried this restaurant recently for our first time. I checked out lots of reviews before we went. I was apprehensive because the reviews overall were not very good. But we were so pleasantly surprised! We had such a wonderful experience. Our drinks, food, and service were all great. The atmosphere was cozy. We had a very enjoyable dinner. We would definitely go back! Great video!

I just want a quiet place to have some wine, so I think I'll book here on my Sept solo trip. LOL!

Another Fantastical review!

[@kellyv7728]

Happy Thanksgiving! Don’t know why we never tried this place but will in the future. Thanks for a great review!

[@kisim7088]

Happy Thanksgiving. Mama Rosa is great for Fantasmic cheap meal to do. My only knock is it makes you feel really full lol we dragged afterwards.

Hi Dan and Leslie! Thought - do you always tell your server when you have previously dined in a location? I feel your servers almost never give you a backstory, but maybe it's because you have heard it before. Maybe not 🤷‍♂️ Thank you for another lovely review! Hope you had a restful holiday.

[@AddictedtotheMouse]

That makes sense. I don’t think “telling a backstory” is descriptive enough for what we mean. There are servers that do all the right things and wait on you appropriately. And then there are servers that make you feel like you’re part of their family and make you feel welcomed into the restaurant as if the owner was welcoming you into their home. If you’ve ever had a server make you feel like you were their sole focus and that you were an invited guest into an experience that they were proud to share with you…that’s what we mean. It goes way beyond bringing food and keeping glasses from getting empty. Hope that makes sense.

[@charlesnye6193]

@@AddictedtotheMouse thank you for taking the time to explain. For some reason I just assumed you meant the servers weren't, for example, telling you about Momma's Hollywood journey. 🤣 All cleared up. And I quite agree with your assessment of the state of dining in DHS in general - it's just mostly ok. Lol. Have a magical day!

[@jessicatrevino2597]

Happy Thanksgiving, Dan & Leslie! Hope it's all you want it to be. Thankful for this channel.

[@AddictedtotheMouse]

Happy Thanksgiving to you!!

Dan, I think your fly was open LOL!

lol, mkay

[@beckydiehl2989]

Mama Melrose is a solid choice at Hollywood Studios for sure. Definitely not the best but not the worst option either. 😊

[@jordie73]

Yay. You guys are the best

I wouid like to see them give the Muppets a little love and turn Mama Melrose's into a Muppet Character Dining Location. I would also like to see Star Tours become part of Muppet Square too. It sits right behind Pizza Rizzo and could be easily connected to Muppet Square.

[@AddictedtotheMouse]

That would be cool!
