The food was amazing, dessert was too. Waiter was helpful at deciding what to order. However for a nice restaurant I thought they would have nicer chairs. I know this is a little nit picky but this restaurant was on the expensive side.

We were greeted by a nice person who accommodated our need for sitting outside. Then a super friendly gentleman served us water immediately with a pleasant smile. Will K was our server. His recommendations were superb and we were well pleased. Thanks for employing such wonderful staff. You are doing a great job. Bravo We will be back.

We had a really wonderful experience at this restaurant From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and well organized. Even though we didn’t have a reservation, the staff were kind enough to seat us without any issues, which we really appreciated. The food was absolutely fantastic Every dish we tried was full of flavor and clearly prepared with care. It was one of those meals where every bite feels satisfying and makes you glad you chose that place for dinner. The service was also excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive The restaurant itself looked beautiful as well — the interior design and overall atmosphere created a very comfortable and enjoyable setting. Overall, we truly loved our visit and had a great time. It’s definitely a place we would happily come back to in the future!

Went for a friends bday & we had reservations! The ambience is so romantic and cute. They have plenty of seating inside and outside for large groups or families. Service was attentive and great even when they were super busy! Drinks were yummy too! The fruit roll up is non alcoholic but you could definitely get your choice added and it would be even better! Food was all good! Definitely get the bread pudding dessert, it’s one of the best I’ve had!!!

I decided to treat myself for my birthday and went to Mamma Melina for a special lunch. The waiters were extremely kind and accommodated certain changes I wanted to make to my Carbonara Pasta. It was absolutely delicious, one of the best Italian dishes I have tried in Seattle. I also really liked their complementary bread, though I wished it was warm. They also made sure to make me feel extra special and surprised me with a Tiramisu on the house. It was such a special experience

I had a fantastic time at Mamma Melina! I had the gnocchi, and we had bruschetta for an appetizer. Fantastic food. The restaurant is very nice, but I will note it might not be the best option for a quiet, private date night. It was pretty loud and lively when we went at peak hours. I liked that, but that's something to keep in mind. The bread service was good and the service was awesome. Would highly recommend!
