Mel's Diner

Looks like your classic, old person diner. Pictures of the rat pack on the wall, carpet, and a bar top that's actually a bar. Makes you wonder if they make good milk shakes. Anywayz, server was accommodating, ordered two items from the menu then changed them after I put in the order, she never flinched, thought that was awesome. Ordered the surf and turf also the Ruben. My only complaint, the food was cold. It took me 15 min to get to my room. The steak was perfectly cooked the lobster was not rubbery but the thing that was mind blowing..... the gravy on the mash! Never have I ever exclaimed about brown gravy. Packed of flavor, rich and not too salty. Again everything was good had to drop the star because of the temp. I'd recommend eating at the spot.

"Cozy spot with amazing food and friendly service (Aileen was our server) Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served with a smile. A true hidden gem!"

Love Love Love me some Mel’s diner! Top notch service from our newly favorite waitress Anna! It’s truly great comfort food! It’s like stepping back in time, the food’s like grandma used to make and the prices go right along with it! Great value for your money! We will be back time and time again! What a lovely find!

Large portions, hot dark coffee, delicious biscuits and hubby said best country fried steak he’s ever had. Even the kids portion was very generous. Very good prices. Had a pup with us and they accommodated us outside. Our server Natalie was great! Very yummy all around and would love to stop by again when in the area.

Decent food at good prices. Portions aren’t very big, but fair for what you pay. The veggies in the grouper Florentine didn’t look fresh and showed signs of being past their prime, so I skipped them. However, the spinach was fresh. Management should pay more attention to basic cleaning—our booth was dirty, with crumbs everywhere and torn upholstery that’s clearly long overdue for replacement. I probably won’t be back, but I can see why locals like it—the prices are hard to beat for this area.
