- This article is about the restaurant. For the record from WarioWare: Twisted!, see Mona Pizza (souvenir).
Mona Pizza is a restaurant found in Diamond City, and is the rival of Pizza Dinosaur. Mona works here part-time under the control of the manager Joe, who also owned her past place of employment, the Gelateria. Mona Pizza appears in the WarioWare series of games and sells pizza, the only known variety of which is the Mona Special. Mona Pizza's name and logo are both based on the famous Mona Lisa painting by Leonardo Da Vinci.
Advertising Jingle
Mona's stage in WarioWare: Twisted! featured a commercial for Mona Pizza, complete with a long advertising jingle. This jingle was sung almost completely by Sal Out and featured interludes of "Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!" sung by the Yum Yums, as well as various comments (some of which were in Italian) from the manager Joe. The latter parts of the song were sung by Pizza Dinosaur's employees and seemed to advertise Pizza Dinosaur and its devious ways, suggesting that this half of the song was actually part of a separate commercial. However, all editions of the Mona Pizza jingle have included the Pizza Dinosaur segments and thus considered part of the jingle.
The Mona Pizza jingle has now become a somewhat recognizable trait of the WarioWare series, along with Mona Pizza itself. A subtitled version of it (complete with a picture slideshow featuring limited animation) is unlockable in the form of a secret "Mona Pizza" souvenir in WarioWare: Touched!; this souvenir can only be unlocked by playing WarioWare: Touched! with WarioWare: Twisted! in the Nintendo DS's Game Boy Advance slot. The song also appears in both English - in an edited version - and Japanese in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, under the name "Mona Pizza's Song". In the English version, Mona's vocals were provided by Christina Peyser, who is Ashley's voice actress in the WarioWare series, while the Pizza Dinosaur employees' vocals were done by Nate Bihldorff and Andy Hartpence. The jingle is also one of the tracks featured in Donkey Konga 3: Tabehōdai! Haru Mogitate 50 Kyoku.
WarioWare: Twisted! lyrics
This here is Mona Pizza!
Makers of the world's best eats-a!
Fresh sauce and cheese galo-ore,
Brought straight to your front do-or! (Yum! Yum! Yum! Yum!)
This here is Mona Pizza! (Buon giorno!)
Makers of all tasty treats-a! (Buono!)
Our pie's crispy, crunchy cru-ust, (Bellissima!)
Leaves others in the du-ust. (Mamma mia!)
Grab a hot slice and take a big bite!
It's so good that you'll start a fight for more...

We represent Pizza Dinosaur!
We got the most stores in the world!
Our crust is tough and our sauce is thin,
But we're everywhere so you gotta give in!
Mona Pizza's got nothing on us,
'Cause we've got 6000 stores plus!

Trivia
- The Mona Pizza logo (the picture depicting Mona as a spoof of Mona Lisa) is not present in the Japanese version of WarioWare: Twisted! and did not appear until the Japanese release of WarioWare: Touched! It was probably added to the English version of Twisted! due to the later release and since Touched! was released prior to Twisted! outside of Japan.
- The Mona Pizza delivery box's design is completely different in the Japanese version of WarioWare: Twisted!.
- Because WarioWare: Twisted! was not released in China, the "Mona Pizza" souvenir in the Chinese version of WarioWare: Touched! can only be unlocked with Chinese version of WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, and the song is in English, with Chinese subtitles. However, there were no localized GBA games released in South Korea, so it may be impossible to unlock this souvenir in the Korean version of WarioWare: Touched! in a regular way.
