Brian's Review
This is a large but otherwise unexceptional fast food place.
It's one of the few places in the park where you can get breakfast,
but it's lunch and dinner selections are few.

Barb loved the Quesdilla Club, I
preferred her chicken strips. We traded dinners and both
ended up happy. |

Brian's Review
This restaurant is an enigma. When we first visited Mama Melrose's,
the food was excellent and the service lousy. We returned because the
food was so good. Then, from 1996 until 1998 or so, the service
improved so much that we were more favorably impressed with each return
visit. Unfortunately, the menu keeps changing and many of the
favorites that we've enjoyed over the years are no longer available --
replaced, unfortunately, with obscure dishes that are more for the Italian
food aficionado than for the typical Joe Blow off the street (like
me). The pepperoni and mushrooms wood-fired pizzas and all-you-can-eat
pasta (with various sauces and various pastas) are no more.
Another example: On one visit, we'd told our son
that he could build his own pizza (an option from the child's menu), but
alas, even that was no longer available. Our server said she could
still do that for us anyway, but apparently forgot and just brought out the cooked pie. Allan
was disappointed. So was I.
The only
old favorite that is still a good bet is the tiramisu. It's changed
over the years, too, but is still a wonderful desert.

Brian's Review
This place just wasn't our style. Here you sit in the front and back of cars parked at the
local drive-in theatre. You're bombarded with "b" movie trailers as you munch on
your meal.
The food itself was fairly good -- typical sandwiches and
stuff -- but the atmosphere, while
interesting, hasn't merited a return visit for us...at least not yet. Go, if you've never
gone before, though...you might love it. I had an excellent Reuben sandwich with chips.

Don't expect a faithful recreation of Pizza Planet from the movie. There are a
few arcade games around, but this isn't as fantastic as it's namesake from the film.
Pizza and salad, of course, is the mainstay.
