Osteria Mamma

The kitchen sends it out the way Mamma would.

Pasta rolled in house, San Marzano tomatoes, Parmigiano Reggiano DOP, and a wine wall that runs from the counter to the ceiling. It has been a Melrose room for years, and it still cooks like one.

Everything on the menu travels well. Order it to your table or to your door — it arrives the same way it leaves the pass.

The osteria

A red door on Melrose.

The dining room at Osteria Mamma: set tables, arched openings and warm lamplight.

  • Made in the kitchen, not bought in

    Pasta, sauces and dolci are prepared in house. The bolognese is pork, veal and sausage; the lasagna is built on meat crêpes.

  • A wall of wine

    Bottles racked from the counter to the ceiling behind the bar, with the house plaque set into the middle of it.

  • Built to travel

    The same kitchen, the same plates, packed for the drive. Delivery and pickup both run straight from the ordering page.

  • On Melrose since long before the block changed

    5732 Melrose Avenue — the red corner with the black sign, a few doors east of the 5600 block.
