Welcome to Melo’s Italian Table! A vibrant culinary journey awaits you…

Our story begins in Calabria, a sun-kissed region of southern Italy, where our ancestors embraced the art of cooking with love. Passed down through the generations, our family recipes have become the heart and soul of our restaurants. Melo’s Pizza & Pasta has been a Contra Costa staple for over 50 years. Now Melo’s Italian Table continues the tradition of our established restaurants, but adds a sprinkle of the new.

Here, a touch of modern creativity complements our tradition of always emphasizing variety, freshness, quality and authenticity of ingredients.   From classic regional pasta dishes bursting with rich flavors, to mouthwatering pizzas, an assortment of gourmet salads, and entrees ranging from meat to vegan, each dish we serve is a celebration of the flavors our loyal Melo’s customers already recognize as “passionately Italian!”
