    This is a very reliably great place with a lot of options and can be both a special occasion place, a work dinner, and a family dinner with kids. Terrific asset for neighborhood. All Food is always tasty and fresh and some dishes are really outstanding

    I was asked if I wanted anchovies on my caesar salad and I said I did. I understand that some diners don't care for anchovies, but they are a standard part of the salad. I was not told that there would be a $2 charge. I would have still had them, but the charge should not have been a surprise. That is my only reason for rating the meal as 4 stars instead of 5.

    We had a great experience for lunch with very delicious foods from a classic burger to chicken paillard to steelhead with fresh salads with homemade leek soup. Excellent service and we will return soon!

    I have continued to come to Mamma Melina for business and casual dinners. Troy was our server today, and I was very impressed with his knowledge and excellent service.

    The service was good and ambiance was nice. The wood fired pizza was doughy and undercooked. The gluten free Linguine de Mare was ok but not spectacular. Based on the quality of the pizza and the price, we won’t visit again

    As with every of the many meals we’ve had here, dinner was outstanding. The three of us had the Restaurant Week specials- the ling cod was fantastic, the seafood linguine was huge and delicious, the salads and soups were great, and the chocolate cake with ice cream was really good as well. Even the coffee was excellent.
