Edith was a sweet waitress and friendly and professional. Gave her a nice tip for being so good, and love the 50's-60's atmosphere, reasonable prices

I love Mel's dinner, whenever I ina town and happen to see a Méls... I know I'll be eating there at least once before leaving. Most likely breakfast. I love their country scramble and their hash browns are always cooked to perfection.I've never been to a Méls and had anything but exceptional service. They take care of you. They wait staff are very attentive to their tables when the food comes out It's hot or cold based on what it is,but it's always good. When I'm traveling I usually get food to go. But if There's a Mel's in town I don't hesitate to belly up to the bar. There are always friendly people to strike up a conversation with so you won't be eating alone. Over the years I've shared a few tables with some pretty amazing people I met at Mel's.If you see one, stop in and get yourself a plate, you will be happy you did....

Love coming here. Never have a issue with staff or other guests. Only reason the food isn't a 5 is because it's kinda just your typical diner food.

Great traditional American diner that serves hearty diner fare. This particular branch is a great one as they have their great customer service and high food quality down pat. I always tend to go for my usual diner classic of chicken fried steak, but you can't go wrong with their other diner options such as chicken and waffles.

No waiter follow-up, no refills, no to-go box, no check.... NO TIPAlso the song we paid for cut out mid-play. Spend your money else where, service here was really poor.
Clam chowder on point as usual. Good service.Parking: Ample parking.

I rarely, if ever review eateries, yet my exceptional experience while I was there has given me no option. Five, maybe even ten out of five stars any day. This Diner’s exceptional quality surpasses any others I’ve ever encountered, and I’m obliged to share how it improved my week.When you pull up, at first glance Mel’s Diner already catches the eye, often allowing ample space to park if you go early in the day when there are few cars. Walking through the front door, the first thing you’ll notice is the 50’s style of tables and decoration and the cheerful atmosphere. Right in front of you is a well preserved and ornamented jukebox. The hanging strands of soft lights and the model planes hanging from the ceiling will cause you to realize you’re at the right place to relax and have a great time. Even though I was born half a century later, the décor causes feelings of nostalgia I didn’t know I had. The customer service is above and beyond, for when I entered I had little time to take in the scene before we were immediately greeted and seated by a bubbly waitress.The best part was definitely the ambience. Mel’s Diner is styled after the years 1945-1955, with signed portraits of famous folk back in the day like Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and James Dean. There are portraits of sweet cars that plaster the walls. The quantity of pictures and everything else to look at is almost overwhelming yet the large windows balance everything perfectly. They have these mini jukeboxes at each table which contain over a hundred songs in it that you can flip through! Because some of the jukeboxes didn’t work, our waitress was awesome and took our song requests when she went back to our table to check on us, and I was able to vibe to “I Get Around” by the Beach Boys. How many other establishments can you go to where you can request music to play overhead, and they’ll actually do it? And that’s before we even ordered! Our waitress was exceptional, authentic, and aware of any potential needs we might have.We were soon offered a choice of drinks by her, which were promptly brought out. The root beer freeze I ordered was beyond description, and scooping the foam from the bottom of the extra metal cup they gave in addition to the glass has forever changed my opinion of ordinary root-beer floats. The menu offers a wide variety, serving almost every kind of American food.We didn’t wait longer than ten minutes before our food was set before us in generous portions, fresh and warm along with a refill on drinks. The juicy burger I ordered was superb, the ingredients complementing each other in a way that cheap fast food can never hope to replicate. McDonald’s better watch out! The mashed potatoes on the side were excellent as well, although the fries were a little too garlicky. Based on the uplifted conversations of others around me I can only assume that everyone in the diner felt likewise, enjoying such splendor.When the bill came, I will admit that it was a bit pricey. The cost nearly caused my wallet to cry. But when I look back and consider the time I had, it was truly worth every penny. But when I compare it to other establishments such as Dennys or Blackbear Diner there is an easy choice for which to choose. Takeout was just another one of its perks. We left, already looking forward to the next time we would visit before we had even exited.I’m not paid to advertise. I just want to share the joy I experienced when I went to Mel’s Diner. There is good, better, and best, and Mel’s Diner is one of the best.

I am not a regular at this restaurant (passing through on our way back to Oklahoma City) and I ordered the Eggs Benedict with ham, hash browns with an extra side of hollandaise sauce. I always like ordering the Benedict because it’s tests the cooks on how well they can cook poached eggs. Our cook today was, Yenis, and this individual did not disappoint. It was a delicious treat to enjoy perfect poached eggs. Great job and thank you for making my breakfast so memorable.Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly for sure. This place has music boxes on some of the tables and you can put in coins and select the songs that you want. It’s a lot of fun when you have kids at the table choosing their own sons.Wheelchair accessibility: This establishment has plenty of room for wheelchair accessibility.
