The food was average at best, not much flavour. The service was pretty bad. We stood around confused for 10 minutes, unsure if to sit or order at the counter, the staff ignored us. When someone did come around, they were aggressive in answering questions, and a bit judgemental, could be racist. The regulars that come in speaking Spanish were welcomed.

If you just gonna microwave day old food, slather bbq sauce on it, and then keep it under a heat lamp all day, then stop serving food and JUST be a bar. Y’all are 90% of the way there anyway.

Not ideal for black people . The Spanish girls that work there treat Spanish people totally different than what they treat the black people that walking. They act a little scared or maybe prejudice .

The owners sit outside with a giant speaker from around 6 PM to 1 or sometimes 2 AM every night without fail, blasting music. Sometimes there are as many as 20 people out there with them. This has been going on for the last four months. Despite frequent complaints from neighbors, they will not turn their music down. In addition to this, their food has really declined in quality, and there have been multiple reviews that mention them being racist against Black people. This is a Caribbean neighborhood and you're going to act like that? Turn your music down and stop being racist to your neighbors.

I received an horrible service. I came up and nobody asked what I wanted I ask for assistance and that girl looked at me with an attitude. I stand there and I called her again and she came looking at me like I’m crazy . I was asking her questions she responded to me like she doesn’t want to talk to me, and I think they are racist . They didn’t have rice or any side just the meats . The only reason I bought the food is because I couldn’t go somewhere else. I end up having a slice of lasagna and the stew, she charged me $23, I don’t think that’s the right price. The women restroom wasn’t working too that night . I don’t recommend that place.

The workers are extremely rude. The person who took my order had a bad attitude and took a long time to come to me, even though there was no one else in line. It seems like they are exhibiting racist behavior.

This was our first time trying Melaney’s. Me and my son’s father just happened to be in the area and wanted to find a spot to eat and chill. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla and he had shrimp tacos. We ordered the salt fish and rice for our son. To my surprise the quesadilla was REALLY GOOD. From the first bite, I was like damn this is not your average quesadilla. Delicious! Only thing is that it was “half” sized and $15.95. I felt like the food is overpriced . But all of the food we had tasted amazing. For that I give them 4 stars.

I love going to this resturant it is so nice inside great staff and great food I got a garlic lemon Salmon and rice and peas it was sooo good will be back for more and bring some friends along because they have seating.
Ordered from there all the time 3 to 4 times a month for years, vegan so always heavy on rice and beans but on a few occasions they'd send me a large bean container with like a 1/4 of beans in it, finally that last time o ordered twice for a totally off 4 large brand and I barely got one whole container of actual beans, I called to speak to someone but got the time around so I don't order there no more
I live in the building across the street from Melany and it’s a nightly occurrence that music is blasting for hours after closing time. Stop it! I’ve never been to Melany and why would I bother going to the place that’s the source of my sleep deprivation? Hugely disrespectful. Do you want new customers or not?

I was a customer for over 15 years. Yesterday was my last day supporting this business. My sister ordered us food and my grilled chicken sandwich was wet, soggy and inedible. I called to explain what I received this man gets on the phone rude and disgusting yelling at me, simply because I asked for a new sandwich to be made because he claims the sandwich is soggy because it is fresh off the grill and sitting to be delivered so I asked it to be separated he said that’s more money. I wasted over 30 dollar in food. He also claimed I wasn’t a customer for the amount of years I claimed because he doesn’t see the number in the phone. What a bozo. Over the years the food got nasty anyway that’s why they closed down the first time. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUISNESS GO TO LA CABANA THEY ARE FAR BETTER
