We love this place. I wish they would stay open for supper. Everything I have tried there is excellent. /here ham off the bone .I don't know what kind of ham it is .but it is always excellent not to salty. Like you get sometimes.they frie it to get it nice and caramelized. I have had Mel"l breakfast and lunch menu. I just wish they were open for supper. They could use the lunch menu. For the supper menu. Everybody would be happy with that. I don't see why they wouldn't be just as packed for supper as they are for breakfast and lunch.Dietary restrictions: They have something for everyone. Low cal. , low carb,no glu.Parking: There is plenty of parking. From handicap ♿️ to regular parking.Kid-friendliness: They have sheets for the kids to color. They cater to the kids to make them feel important.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes very handicap ♿️ accessible.

You are free to write your own review…you are also free to like/dislike a restaurant or a server.What you are not free to do is give out misinformation & post a picture of a said server.Yes…Lexus works at Meli’s but that is about the only information Michelle got correct on her negative review about this server.Lexus WASN’T her server!!For somone who has spent a decade in the restaurant industry Michelle isn’t great on remembering faces.It is one thing to criticize a server for poor customer service…it’s entirely unacceptable to attack the character of someone you don’t know!For those of you who love Lexus I encourage you to write a positive review!Lexi…I am SO sorry that this negativity was targeted towards you.♥️ you!!& I hope that this situation gets resolved & corrected!

Waitress was awful – had eggs, and didn’t get my toast until my eggs were cold…. my hashbrowns were greasy and old – and the bacon was not done…. And didn’t get a coffee refill…. I do not believe the food is worth the price - it is quantity versus quality- will NEVER go back!

My family and I were having a great day and met up at this restaurant. Mind you among us we have over 35 years in the restaurant industry. The server was in a mood. Came up to our table with attitude. My cousin covered her expressive face and eventually left the table. When she came back, the waitress confronted her and wanted to know "what her problem was." I intervened and explained that she, the waitress, has been kind of rude since walking up to the table. Unfortunately, that opened the flood gates for this woman. Anything we calmly explained she went off on. Literally yelling at all of us in the restaurant. Everyone was staring. My 68 yr old mom asked for another waitress and she stepped at her, like ready to fight. (?What!?!?) This waitress wouldn't stop. She kept yelling and screaming and making the craziest scene! I felt like I was being punked. Or now a days on a tik tok or something. I finally had to tell her multiple times to WALK AWAY. I swear if any one of us would've stood up the waitress would've become physical. The owner came over and he was trying to sort it all out and offered to be our server. She already took our order. He asked for it and she said, "No, you take it." She literally made the owner take our order over again. This disrespectful brat, and the owner defended her! Saying she was his best waitress! What a joke. We let it go and tried to have a good time anyway at the restaurant with each other. At the end of the meal, I said to the owner that, "Not only did she disrespect us. She disrespected you and your business. She's not your best waitress, she's a liability." He continued to defend her saying she's the best and like family. I'm not sure how he doesn't see what really happened. I mean are they sleeping together or what? I thought, well I did what I could and leave the rest to God/ karma right? It's been a while since this happened. Unfortunately, I am karma because somehow I stumbled upon her and found the picture and it hit me. Time to post. She literally hates her job and serving people. Not sure why she still has one after how unprofessional and deranged she was!(When we asked what was good, she asked, "Where?" Lmao. This is why my cousin hid her face. Like where do you think? And then she said very matter of fact, "I don't eat here anymore." Wow, way to promote the restaurant-best waitress ever. Should we eat here?")

The food was really expensive for what you got. I ordered a cinnamon toast tower, which was the size of a donut with a little fruit and whipped cream. There was only the french toast, no eggs, or hash browns, and it was $16.99. The whole bill was over $20, including a soda. I went home still hungry. It was great tasting but very small and the price was horrendous.

1st time eating here. I'm not impressed. I ordered a ham and cheese omlet with hashbrowns, and it had to go back 3 times to be fixed because they kept putting onions in my hash browns. Then my son ordered a burger and it was so over seasoned he took one bite and couldn't eat it. It was disgusting. Will not be returning.
