Big Mama In Melendugno

18/01/2026: Good pizza with a variety of toppings and a good selection of beers. Fried foods are also good, and the menu also features a few meat dishes. A typical, noisy pub, it's packed with patrons, especially on Saturdays.

15/01/2026: I've been to this place both in the summer, with large tables on the street and a platform (everything well-kept and trendy), and a few days ago for pizza with a friend. On Saturdays, they don't take advance reservations, so when you arrive, you give your name and number of people and wait for a time that the cashier will give you approximately. Well, I'd say this is perhaps one of the place's few flaws. Not knowing how long someone will be eating, you can't accurately quantify the wait time. Unless someone says, "No, okay, I won't wait 40 minutes and leave," the others wait. However, you risk waiting a bit unnecessarily because if a table for four is freed up, customers who may have arrived well after you are seated. I was a bit shocked by this "selection method." Back to the food, the lactose-free pizza was really excellent, the chips were a bit large but excellent. A welcoming place, highly recommended for going with friends, but also if you're lucky enough to get a corner table with enough privacy to chat quietly without shouting over the music. I'll be back during the week and will write a new review.
