Kaylin M.3 years agoThis was my 1st time visiting a Melt, and it did not disappoint! I was definitely not expecting the cool, unique decor! so much to look at and i LOVED the glass star lights. The Blueberry cocktail was so good, and the Chicken&waffles was delicious!! I wish i would have read the cheese type and switched, but that's on me. it was easy to peel off and continue eating.
Abhi Chakraverty3 years agoThey took quite a while to get us seated and their service was pretty slow. We had to wait about 30 minutes to be seated and another 40 or more for our food to arrive. Food was delicious - everything we ordered was tasty and the portions were great. Our server was attentive and made sure we were well taken care of. Overall we are satisfied customers - will definitely return again.
Brian2 years agoI haven't been to this location in a while. Previously my sandwich was dry, but I got the August special that involved pulled pork and smoked gouda, and it was delicious and the opposite of dry. The sandwiches are kind of pricey though. I got chips with my sandwich, and the french onion dip was REALLY good.
Haile Haile4 years agoThis is must try if you are in the area. The food is delicious and the portions were huge. You could share any meal with a partner or friend. Our server Morgan was great! The menu was overwhelming! I felt like I was trying to read an encyclopedia. You should view the menu online, before going into the restaurant. You might feel the pressure of trying to order without really knowing what you want.
Philip Mundiyamkal5 years agoSummary: An average all American-style restaurant/bar with a lot of variety but no outstanding dish. We ordered take out for 6+ people to eat comfortably on a Thursday Night. Since it was somewhat cold outside, by the time we got to our hotel 15 min later, the original textures may not have been there. Please take this review with that in mind. Cleveland Cheesesteak- the most popular amount our group. Had a good melted provolone with decent steak slices. 4/5 Summer Chicken- a fresher feeling sandwich. If the bread were different from the regular Texas style toast, this could have been one of their healthier dishes. Vinaigrette cuts the heaviness! 3/5 Backyard Pork BBQ- this was a very southern dish. One bite is good enough to satisfy though because it’s so heavy. The onion ring soaked up the bbq sauce from the pulled pork but it had a crunch still. 3/5 Korean War Pig- interesting combination. The spare ribs were not crazy fatty but since it was cold, it reminded me of a McRib. The slaw was mixed with a sweet onion pear relish but I really didn’t taste it. 3/5 Spectacular Starter Combo- this has a little bit of almost everything on the starters menu. Good value to try the bulk of you don’t know what to choose! Here’s how I rated each item: Fried Pickles- The fried pickles were awesome! Very thick batter around quartered pickles. 5/5 Fried Mozzarella Wedges- nice and chewy! Went great with the marinara sauce. 4/5 Mac n Cheese Bites- soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Good textures but not greatest fan of the flavour. 3/5 Chicken tenders- least favourite. The batter was not great for this one...too soft...you did get a lot of chicken though. 2/5 BBQ beef nachos- this was the last thing I tried and probably because it was cold I didn’t get the full effect of how it should have been. The pulled beef brisket was too saucy for me. I enjoyed the fresh jalapeños though! Chips were dry or soggy. 2/5 Regular Mac n Cheese- I thought it would have been an awesome Mac n cheese because the name of the restaurant suggests that it’s going to be awesome (melty). However, by the time I had it, the whole Mac n cheese solidified. Not saucy or melty. 2/5 Custom Mac N Cheese: garlic sauce, cornflake crumbs, Buffalo sauce- this was better than the regular Mac n Cheese because the Buffalo sauce drizzle was there! Didn’t taste much garlic in the sauce though! Maybe the Buffalo sauce overpowered it. I didn’t even feel the cornflake crumbs so it must have been very light! 3/5 Ragin’ Cajun- my favourite of the Mac n cheeses we tried. It was creamy and nice spices in it. The chicken added some good protein to it. 4/5 Fries- not my favourite fries. It was a thicker cut so it was t very crispy! 2/5 Coleslaw- I think the chef accidentally added too much black pepper because, man, this was all you could taste. Not great 2/5
