Saturday, 9-27-2025: We were craving these sandwiches after our grandson's soccer game. When we entered it was in a little disarray as there was a very bright, expansive mural in the progress of being painted. Staff were welcoming & friendly. Unfortunately, no Gabriel. We ordered our usual faves: Little Melo Sandwich & Tuna Salad Sandwich. It was served rather quickly for which we were grateful because we were starving. As before, sandwiches were scrumptious, the bread was to die for! We really enjoyed it very much! Their ice cream is so good. Great dining experience. We're fans. read more

Our sandwiches were AMAZING! We would definitely recommend go there to try it out! We devoured our sandwiches (the Gusto and the Roast)! We would go there again in a heartbeat and tryout other sandwiches! The bread was amazing as well. Next time I will try out the cheese and jalapeño bread! We were also given ice cream samples their cheesecake and salted caramel-those too were fantastic! Service was phenomenal! The chalk board was a fun interactive thing that my son loved! read more

Great sandwich shop. My husband and I ordered the club and we both loved it. Next time I would ask for mustard as well. My daughter ordered the Italian sub and loved hers as well. So much better than all the chain sandwich shops and it is great supporting a smaller business. Try it out you won't be dissapointed. read more

Melo was amazing at customer service and his sandwiches were delicious. I wish I could say that was the best part but I would be lying. The ice cream here is from a different planet. I've tried MANY different ice creams in America from MA to CA and this is the absolute best. Support a young man working hard to make something of himself.

We were in town for a soccer tournament and needed a fast lunch. We ordered ahead of time for a pick up but got there about 30 minutes early. The guy (sorry I didn't get his name) made our order right away getting us out and back on the road quickly. Service was incredibly thoughtful and kind. He even gave us all very generous ice cream samples. The sandwiches were amazing. Great flavor and generous servings. We got the spicy Italian, panini pressed on the jalapeño roll, so good Will definitely stop here again the next time we are in town. read more

How have I not yet written the review about Melo's?! my kids love this place and so do I. We first came here with friends one hot day after school for ice cream. I fell in love with a flavor called Fat Elvis because who can't?? Decided I needed to come back with my son and so on a half day from school, I bring both kids in for a sandwich and ice cream. We're chatting with the nice young man who is serving us and learned that he is in fact, Melo! The kids are now thrilled to know that they've met the owner and when we find him on Instagram, the children are now buzzing with excitement that they know someone who is "famous". Every time they get a good grade on a test or wanna celebrate something the request is always can we go to mellows. They want to say hi and enjoy how he looks after them ,letting them try different flavors occasionally get some to sample some new fun thing he's been working on. Everything is fresh. Everything is delicious and we love coming here. read more

Just went the for lunch at 12:30 on a Saturday and it was such a weird/odd experience. The sandwich was pretty, good, nothing amazing, but it was good. We got the Italian sub. The place was empty....at mid lunch on a Saturday. Looked like 2 staff members and were both in the back until one person greeted us and we said we needed some time to look at the menu. We were left out front for a solid 4-5 minutes waiting for her to come back and take our order. Odd sized table and booth setup.....you'll see what I mean if you go there. There was 1 single brownie in a 4 inch display right in front of where you order. I think I wanted one but had no clue if it was real/fake of for sale or not. It was just weird. A juice machine with 3 options for juice and 2 of them completely empty and the one with juice in it was 10% full. Machine also made a chirping sound and not really pleasant when sitting inside eating. We are locals and were hoping this place was going to be great because we never heard of it......but....eh. Sandwich was ok though lol! read more

Plus, they have my must have cheat drink Diet Coke. Melos is the best, hard working desserts & sandwiches shop in Temecula, California. Hands down the most amazing experiences I have ever had. Still gotta go back and been craving an ice cream sandwich, squashed between two delicious, warm, satisfying chocolate chip cookies. Did I mention mouth watering chocolate? Always Proud.

I remember the sandwiches A Club Sub minus the bacon and a The Roast sandwich. Both memorable and the kids liked the ice cream!. Tonight I had the opportunity to taste the ice cream which I hadn't the last visit. I had the fat Elvis and the strawberry cheesecake, both very good! The owner is a nice young man.

If you're in Temecula and haven't tried Melos Sandwich and Dessert, you're seriously missing out. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, and the staff treats you like a regular even on your first visit. The sandwiches are incredible: fresh ingredients, perfectly balanced flavors, and portions that actually satisfy. Every bite tastes thoughtfully made rather than rushed. And the desserts? Absolutely next level. Everything in the case looks beautiful and somehow tastes even better than it looks. What truly makes Melos special is their heart for the community. They regularly donate ice cream and contribute financially to local schools, supporting students and families throughout the area. It's rare to find a place that not only serves amazing food but also gives back in such meaningful ways. Between the quality, the kindness, and the community support, Melos isn't just a great place to eat, it's a place worth supporting. read more

I am a "Senior Woman" who has eaten ice cream for many years. Melo's has the best ice cream I've had in my whole life! Their flavors are unique, and the taste is "extremely naughty"! This is not for dieters or those "eating clean." It is for those who want a special treat that is extraordinary! The counter service is friendly, polite, and feels like family.

Wonderful local spot with fresh, allergy friendly, and flavorful sandwiches and ice cream. Had tuna on squaw and roast beef on panini sourdough (the garlic aioli is a must). Both sandwiches were well-balanced flavors and the bread was soft and fresh. Ice cream is a must! Flavor combinations are soo fun. The variety of allergy friendly ice creams is incredible!!! The service was top notch and very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely recommend to friends and return soon. PS. The strawberry hibiscus drink is amazing, especially on a summer day. read more

I have not changed my order, I like what I like, and they have hit the nail on the head over and over. Drive through, DO NOT be scared when you see a long line, they move these cars like its a comp with Chick Filet.

We even decided that we had such a great time we needed to bring our kids back today. I did not think the food or experience could get any better. It did. My husband had an amazing Gf burger (so messy and delicious- due to his add ons cooked by Aaron). I had Amazing GF salmon (moist and delicious) Our kids had amazing food as well.

I pass this place all the time and just have not got to stop. well I finally did last night. My kids loved the ice cream. I ordered a sandwich for my husband for work last night and he said it was definitely one of the better from around town. He said the bread was really soft and the whole thing tasted very fresh. The kids really did enjoy the ice cream more than cold stone or other places. They are already asking to go back! it definitely is a little more pricey than a chain, but that was to be expected. It was still a really fair price. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and the staff was very welcoming. It was a acute and quite setting that felt very inviting and calm. Definitely will stop in again soon! read more

Where to begin?! Super Good, High Quality, yummy food! We shared a club sub on the French roll, a broccoli cheddar soup, & strawberry hibiscus agua fresca! Everything was soooooo delicious. Afterwards, we couldn't not get a scoop of ice cream after seeing the variety of scrumptious flavors! After a few samples my daughter settled on "smore to love" and enjoyed every bite! My sample of "this $&!? Just got serious" was heavenly! Excited to comeback and try the cheesy beef sandwich!! Oh & the customer service and speed is just as amazing!! Melo himself took our order & served us and his customer service gets an A+. In my daughters words.... "12/10 would recommend" read more

Fantastic sandwich, panini, ice cream and more shop! I ordered a cado sandwich on a French roll and asked for it to add "Melo it" (extra toppings) it was so good. The bread was soft and fresh. Wonderful shop owned and operated by a local Temecula Resident, who graduated from one of our local high schools! We can't wait to go back again. read more

We stopped here on the way home from Pechanga while charging our Tesla and since it was in the same plaza, we figured we'd check it out. I assumed it was more of a franchise bakery than a standalone artisan spot, so I came in with pretty low expectations. I was just planning to grab a cinnamon roll, a loaf of their Cinnamon Burst Bread and a quick sandwich for the drive home. To my surprise, their house-made sandwiches are served on freshly baked bread, made with fresh ingredients, and cost under $10 (Panera could never!!!). Their baked goods were also reasonably priced with generous portions. We picked up the Cinnamon Burst Bread, a cinnamon roll, a honey bran muffin (which completely stole the show for me; it was incredibly moist and I'd come back just for that) and an almond poppy seed scone. The service here was just as impressive. Everyone was so friendly and personable and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed being there. I also loved their "Giving Rack," where anyone in need can take free baked goods. It's such a thoughtful idea and says a lot about the kind of business they are. This is easily one of my favorite bakery finds and it'll definitely be a regular stop whenever I'm back in the area.
