Mangia in the backlot of Disney’s Hollywood Studios at this casual but colourful Italian eatery with a California twist.

Benvenuti a Mama’s
The vivacious Mama Melrose serves up home-style Italian fare with flavours as bold as she is.

Checked curtains, overhead string lights, hanging foodstuffs, and walls crowded with Mama’s eclectic mementos transform this former backlot warehouse into a cozy and inviting dining space. The same scrumptious menu is served for lunch and dinner. 

Buon Appetito! 
Start with one of Mama’s appealing appetizers—like crispy calamari—before moving onto an assortment of signature flatbreads, fresh from the oven.

Then, select from a host of enticing entrees that include authentic pastas, savory chicken and seafood preparations, or even the grilled flat iron steak.

For dessert, enjoy a taste of la dolce vita with Mama’s tiramisù or Ghirardelli chocolate and cherry tort.

Naturally, we offer a selection of Italian and Californian wines, draft beers and specialty cocktails for Guests 21 years of age and up. And, of course, Mama always invites you to top off your Italian dining experience with an authentic cappuccino, espresso, caffé latte or caffé mocha.
