Mama Melrose's Ristorante Italiano is a restaurant in the Muppets Courtyard area at Disney's Hollywood Studios.[1] Located near Muppet*Vision 3D and Star Tours,[2] the restaurant specializes in Italian cuisine, serving such dishes as ossobuco, wood-fired flatbread pizza, and grilled salmon.[3] A Fantasmic! dinner package is available that grants restaurant guests quicker access to this show.[4] This package is also offered at two other restaurants in the park: the Hollywood Brown Derby and Hollywood & Vine.[5] Ron Douglas included the recipe for Mama Melrose's cappuccino crème brûlée in his cookbook America's Most Wanted Recipes: Just Desserts.[6]
Mama Melrose's is decorated with film memorabilia and Italian bric-à-brac.[7] The restaurant's background music consists of songs sung by such singers as Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra.[8]
