Walt Disney World Hollywood Studios Dining Menu “Mama Melrose’s Ristorante Italiano” Lunch & Dinner 2025. Mangia in the backlot of Disney’s Hollywood Studios at this casual but colorful Italian eatery with a California twist.
The Mama Melrose Story: Once upon a time, a young girl from a small Sicilian village moved to Hollywood to become a star. However, she soon found that cooking was her true calling as she re-created her papa’s secret recipes for her starving actor friends.
At their urging, she opened a restaurant in a vacant backlot warehouse once used to store film equipment. Mama’s culinary talents soon attracted the patronage of film industry insiders, who dubbed her Mama Melrose, after the lively Los Angeles thoroughfare. Her establishment became known as the place “where Italy meets California in the heart of the Backlot,” and the rest, as they say, is history.
