    I tried the escargot and did not like it. Unusual preparation. Sea Bass OK but nothing special. Had the filet the night before with blue cheese crust and loaded baked potato both highly recommended.

    Food portions were too large and all heavy. Quality was just ok. Service was friendly but without finesse.

    It's disappointing, as the old Melvyn's charm is gone. If you enjoy lackluster service, no attention to detail, t shirts, baseball caps, and lack of management, it's the place to go and throw away $150 per person and to top it off, a $25+ wellness charge added to the check! Bring your flashlight and magnifying glass to ready the menu, we believe the small font so they don't want it easy for you to read the menu and see that a wedge salad is now $20 or French fries are $14. I could go on and on, but why bother. There are so many choices, and that's our 2 cents.

    From the moment we walked in it was a beautiful experience from the decor to the staff, it was an amazing night of dining thanks to Shelly and the crew and her table side service. We had one of the most delicious nights we’ve had a long time thank you so much!

    There is a reason why people will flock to a place that provides excellent service, wonderful food, and welcomes its customers like close friends. If this is rocket science, then sign me up. Fabulous
