So much yumminess and friendly service. Chicken parm and Butter chicken were perfect! Those crispy brussel sprouts 😋 never thought I'd be so excited for Brussels but here I am in life!!

My husband and I recently celebrated our 10-year wedding anniversary at Mel’s, and it was our first time dining there! The food was delicious— I really enjoyed my filet and opted to swap out the potatoes for mushroom risotto. The risotto was a little undercooked, but the flavor was on point. We started with the cheese curds, which were scrumptious—a great find since they’re hard to come by in the surrounding area. My husband had the New Orleans Shrimp dish and thought it was good overall, though he mentioned it tasted more like BBQ sauce than traditional Cajun seasoning. The Mel’s Cosmo was tasty, but with the large strawberry garnish, it felt like you were only getting about half a martini. That said, our server was incredibly sweet and even surprised us with flowers for our special day

★★★★☆ 4.0 Ian Tilley · Jul 2025

Enjoyed myself here. They were very gracious and let me sit at the bar during the shift change. Service was great, friendly and efficient. Food was a mixed bag... The prawn entre (starter) was fantastic, unfortunately the burger wasn't as good. The meat wasn't seasoned and it had an overwhelming burnt taste. My key lime pie was was ok but I have had much better. Given the standard of the Prawns, I am inclined to think that the burger was not representative of the rest of the menu. I would definitely give them another chance.

Excellent! All around. Crab cakes tasted like just out of Chesapeake Bay, Rebeccas service, attentive and friendly. We had dessert and cocktails which boosted our cost of meal.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Linda Shul · Oct 2025

Friendly service and wonderful atmosphere. The food was good but the Diablo was too spicy (and I love hot food!). The chocolate mousse cake is to die for!
