Absolutely off-the-chain ridiculous so good. My boyfriend and I shared the Turkey Breast with Red Beans & Rice, Mashed Potatoes,... & Gravy, Fried Chicken, Mac & Cheese, and Cole Slaw for LUNCH and I?m walking like a penguin but it was so worth it. Everythingwas so fire but the Fried Chicken Chicken was the G.O.A.T. Oh and we got the Apple Pie - hands down the best I?ve ever had.Super thinly sliced apple and a strudel-type crumble on top.

Mel's is a great relaxed spot with honest and tasty food options. Breakfast for dinner is a win all the time but lots of BBQ... sandwiches and fried chicken passing through the doors too! I would definitely have the George Omelet again! Read more

Haven't been to Mel's for several years. My experience yesterday was a very pleasant one. Staff very friendly like always and... the food was pretty good. I was slightly disappointed that they didn't offer cornbread just dinner rolls. All in all, myexperience was good! Read more
