I've been coming to this spot for years now and it's great. I know exactly what to expect when I go for breakfast and the same... goes for lunch and dinner. If I keep it simple, I'll be fine. Example. I've tried the prime rib because who doesn't love primerib? It was just okay and I wouldn't order it again. But, recently, I've gone for breakfast a few times with my girl and I getam omelette with bacon, mushrooms, cheddar and grilled onions. It's fantastic! A huge portion of food for a reasonable price andI'm full all day! Burgers and sandwich options are solid too. They could use some help with the fries, which seem to never beseasoned properly. Overall, this is a dang good spot for some decent grub. Read more

I went to this restaurant not long ago and being a recent semi resident I find myself there on a regular basis. The... establishment is viewable from the road has a large parking lot, close to 60+ cars, oversize and Tesla chargers available. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, and their is even a larger capacity banquet room downstairs accessible via elevator orstairs. Indoors there is two rooms to choose from when eating, the main dining area or the bar, both have tables. The mainarea has a sit down counter that fits about 10 people and the main room has about 15-20 tables/booths to sit at. I usually sitat counter as I like to read and talk with the staff. Everyone there from the servers, dishwashers, bus people, cooks willengage you in conversation and EVERYONE is super nice. Bart and his wife Moua are super cool, couldn't ask for nicerpeople. The food: Mel's has specials for dinner on practically every evening. Taco Tuesdays, Thursdays - Chicken Parmesan, Friday - Prime Rib or Steak, and the Chicken parm with a drink ran me about $16 very affordable. And it was awesome, it hiteverything that I like about in Chicken Parm. This dinner for example comes with a salad, desert, dinner and bread. They havea variety of deserts like pies, Sundays, shakes etc. And the menu is about 4 pages long. They do breakfast, lunch and dinner. Credit cards are accepted. Read more

First time diner at Mel's. Excellent old fashioned milk shakes, traditional American cuisine. Almost Irish atmosphere. The... historical license plates were one of my favorite elements. I recommend trying it out and going back for more. ***The serversreally made the experience. Our server was very adept and the host sat us down and brought drinks very quickly. Read more

This place was absolutely amazing. The lady who attended to I and my colleagues was so nice and friendly. We went there the day... we were going back home from Lake Tahoe. If you traveling home on your way from Lake Tahoe and need a place to get food. This isthe place for you. It looked so homely and seemed like a place that has been in existence for a long time. I loved how they allthe pictures hanging up the restaurant. I had the fries and milkshake because I wasn?t so hungry and it was so nice . The othershad different varieties and all enjoyed it.
