We've always sat in the main part of the Tavern, but the first person arriving chose to sit in the side room which seems to be a back-up supplies room with a long table for guests since it was quieter. It was quieter. No matter the sitting location, the service has always been great. I had the Reuben sandwich, and it was excellent--flavorful, well made, and generously portioned. Even better, they actually had horseradish available, which is surprisingly hard to find and made the whole thing even better for me. A solid, satisfying meal with plenty to take home half for the next day. I'll definitely be back.

The food exceeded expectation, got the crispy chicken BLT, Gorgonzola fries and French dip. Good portions. Drinks were also made well, they have their own wine label which is fun.

Unlike many restaurants, Second Street Grill steps up to the plate and delivers on its promises. From the moment we were seated, our server Natalie became our most trusted advisor. She answered questions and was super helpful. She was buoyant and just amazing. The wait time was not forever, and the food was hot and tasty. No need to ask for refills, because Natalie kept on top of her duties like a boss. Now. I ordered fish and chips. The expectation was those little diamond shaped fish pucks with some shoestring fries. Nope. It came straight through a wormhole from an Irish pub. I would swear to it. The most delicious outside of halibut that I caught myself. I gotta go cuz the wife is ready, but... DO NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY!!!!!

They were training someone new and they kept dropping dishes and trays in the back (7 times, we counted) and everyone used good humor about the poor new staff... my competely sober aunt fell backward in her chair and landed next to another diners' booth- our server was again, so patient and kind helping her up. They tolerated the mess my eight year old inevitably made as she disemboweled her hamburger and made my grandma feel special on her special day. We loved their caesar salad, their halibut and their stuffed mushrooms.

After letting the hostess know that we had arrived for our reservation, they let us know that they were busy and that we had to complete our meal within an a time frame. After being shown to our table, we were given menus, and then we begin to browse. We decided to get the goat cheese appetizer. This is really interesting because it came with green onions and cranberries. Overall, this dish tasted really good. It comes hot so it's best to eat it right away. We then also got the sausage and pepperoni pizza to share. The portion was a good size and it was delicious. You can tell it came straight out of the oven. For our main entrées, we got the hot sausage and veg penne pasta, as well as the Gorgonzola lemon tortellini. Both of the portions were a good size. I personally enjoyed the Gorgonzola lemon tortellini, which was tasty and very rich. My partner got the hot sausage and veg penne pasta and unfortunately it didn't hit. They said it just didn't mesh well together and needed a sauce or something to bring it together. After a meal, we were able to get some to go boxes and enjoy our leftovers the next day. We did not end up using all of the time that they had told us initially.

My husband and I stopped in at Major's, and wow--it did not disappoint!…read more I got the Major's bacon cheeseburger with beer-battered dip fries, and everything was super yummy. The burger was flavorful and cooked just right, and the fries were crispy and delicious. My husband ordered "The General" with tater tots, and he said it was GOOD! He also got a banana shake, which he really enjoyed. The service was great--the ladies were very nice, attentive, and helpful, which made the experience even better. The vibe is awesome--kind of a fun 50's diner feel with stool seating, plus sports memorabilia all around, which adds a cool touch. We actually chose this spot because Cooper Kupp said it's his favorite place to eat in Yakima, and now we can see why. Definitely worth checking out!

The only thing missing was the tabletop jukebox controls. After being shown to my table and reviewing the menu I opted for the Taco Omelette. It was made perfectly and I enjoyed every bite. There was an abundance of diced jalapeños and made it a nice, spicy breakfast. The wait staff was friendly and appreciated my joke. I enjoyed my visit and meal at Mel's Diner in Yakima, WA.

We probably waited less than 15 minutes before being seated in a booth. The dining area has a booths around the perimeter by the windows and long tables all pushed together in the middle; so dining could be close to others not in your party. Server was prompt and super friendly, everything seemed clean and well stocked with condiments in corals at every table. We ordered two different eggs benedict (chorizo and steak bites), both sets of eggs were overcooked and not runny as is customary for benedicts but the meat was cooked to perfection. Hubs had chicken fried steak, no complaints. We all liked the shredded thick hashbrowns. The menu is extensive so we will most likely make time to come back for a lunch date.
