    As always, the foot is delicious!!! Literally cannot order wrong here! The service is great and so is the atmosphere of this place!

    Mac Melt and Fries
    Lucy T.

    I've always had great food at Melt locations! This location in Hoover is very inviting and relaxing. They have some of the friendliest staff and delicious food of course! I ordered the Mac Melt with fries as my side. Everything was perfect about it! The worker asked me if I wanted any sauces, and I didn't think I needed any. When he listed them off to me and said jalapeno ranch, I gave it a try. It was amazing! Definitely add some sauces to your fries if you can! They are a game changer!

    Patty melt
    Shazia W.

    Such a cute restaurant. Everyone was so friendly. I ended up ordering the patty melt. The bread was so delicious but the flavor was slightly lacking. The cucumber salad was delicious. I also got the burger kids meal which my son loved! The way they set it up was adorable. I loved that they had outdoor seating and a little bean bag game set up so that the kids could be entertained. I would definitely come back.

    What a great lunch! They have indoor and outdoor seating. The honey baked goat cheese is amazing! The strawberries and pecans add to the flavor. The sandwiches are delicious. The Buffalo chicken and patty melt are so delicious and the ham, turkey and cheese melts are made to perfection. The Mac and cheese was good and the fries were crispy. We all enjoyed our food and the experience.

    This a real nice place to sit and relax while having a good sandwich. I came in to see what the hype was about. I was greeted when I came in pretty fast and she was very friendly. They have a little something for everyone on the menu. I had the ragin cajun chicken sandwich. The chicken could have used a little more spice but it was juicy. The sandwich needed something else because it was a little dry. The slaw needs a little work also but overall, it was an ok sandwich. The fries were right out of a bag. Nothing special but they were hot. I might try it again but it's not on my radar.

    Mac-N-Cheese & Chicken Pesto sandwich
    Emily B.

    Hands down the best & most flavorful sandwich I've ever had. Chicken pesto with mozzarella and tomato on sour dough with a side of mac-n-cheese, which was excellent too. A little pricey for sandwiches, but it was worth it. It's in a neat little area as well with many other restaurants. Employees were very friendly. There were games for kids to play and several TVs.

    Menu for Success:  Flyin' Hawaiian sandwich with French Fries, honey mustard and Diet Coke!
    Nash R.

    What makes a better summer lunch than Melt's Flyin' Hawaiian sandwich with French Fries? Add in honey mustard and Diet Coke and I'm a very happy girl! If you haven't been to Melt before, you should consider giving it a try. We've eaten here a few times for lunch and have enjoyed it every time. The food is tasty, the service is good, and the atmosphere is laid back and very casual. They also have a small patio with outdoor seating, so I will probably bring the dog the next time we come here. The Honey Baked Goat Cheese appetizer is AWESOME! Be sure to order it, even if you're not a huge fan of brie. It is truly exceptional. My husband and I have different approaches to eating. He always gets the same thing--the burger. But he says it's really good and why get anything else? (As a FYI...the burger comes on Texas Toast, which he says is a positive). Me? I like to try something different on each visit: the Ole Smokey sandwich and the Chicken Pesto sandwich are both tasty, but I especially enjoyed the Flyin' Hawaiian sandwich (pictured). However, we both agree that Melt makes EXCELLENT French Fries. They are a steak-cut and cooked to be crispy outside and soft inside. Not too browned, either--they are golden both on the plate and on your palate! The only downside is that the parking can be a little tricky. We have had the most success finding a spot behind the restaurant

    Was sloppily made and barely had any meat on the sandwich.

    We have enjoyed other Melt locations, but $18 for a mediocre sandwich is far too much for us to consider eating here again.

    4.5. What a great find! When we were not able to go to our first choice restaurant (that one was was overcrowded graduation night) we found this gem of a joint. Great service! Incredibly friendly greeting when we arrived. Courtesy exhibited by all the staff and servers a nice selection of "not your run-of-the-mill" sandwiches. And, probably some of the best hit crispy outside, tender inside fries we have had in a long long time. Could even be number one on our list.

    Cheeseburger with chips
    Uriia H.

    I love when a restaurant has simple offerings and does them well. This is a casual, unassuming chain. Went here with a colleague for lunch. In a nice shopping area with free parking. We started with the fried pickles. My first time having them sliced longways and thin. I really enjoyed them..came with a ranch drizzle on top. The cheeseburger came on texas toast with a side of chips. YES I ate all of it. Lol. Very reasonably priced. Worth a stop if you're in the mood for a simple burger.

    We made a great choice in deciding to drop in here. We arrived around 6pm on a Thursday, and it was…read morea little busy. We sat at the bar and received menus right away. It took a little while for them to ask about our drink order (remember we were at the bar so they were filling orders for everyone), but that gave us time to look over the menu. The drink menu has a wide selection of beverages!! Wine, wine, and more wine!! The bottles around the room added to the overall ambiance! Red wines, white wines, flights and tasting nights...we will definitely go back soon to try other wines and items off the food menu. Every item we had was delicious!! In addition to the wine flights, they have a steak flight...AMAZING!!! And remember I said it took them a little while to take our ordered? We never would've mentioned it because it was a busy time, but this was acknowledged by the staff!! Phenomenal service, exquisite food, and impressive wine menu has earned them a repeat customer!!

    Pretty good experience…read more Mind you, know what this is. A combination butcher and restaurant operating in a retail location. So, as a result, the dining experience itself is a little barebones in terms of indoor seating. We tried sitting out on the patio at first, but we asked to be relocated due to sudden, unexpected windy conditions. A good selection of beers and wine. Not expansive, but perfectly sufficient. The service was cheerful and prompt. The steaks themselves were very good, especially given the price point. I thought a flight of red wines for $21 and a flight of steaks for $28 was reasonable. Add the four bucks for a twice-baked potato, and you enjoy a nice steak dinner without breaking the bank. Because we were meeting friends out on their side of town, it's probably not where we'd go as a destination, but I would recommend it for a more casual night out. Well done.

Getting in was relatively easy and the atmosphere was great…read more There was a live jazz band playing which upped the atmosphere and the servers were very nice! The food was absolutely phenomenal, we had gotten the oysters and biscuits and gravy as our appetizers. We had the benedict and the brunchtada as our main entrees and my favorite was definitely the brunchtada! Had the right amount of spice and the flavor was all there. I think the only downside for me may have been the gravy for the biscuits, a little more on the sweet end for my taste.

    Farrelleys for my birthday dinner!!…read more We've been here several times and have never been disappointed! They have an amazing happy hour from 4-6. I got a marg ($8) and the baked pimento cheese dip to start - served with pita. ($7) I loved my pan seared scallops with grits and broccolini. The cranberry bacon "jam" really adds so much flavor and create the perfect bite when you add all components together. ($34) Dad and David got the meatloaf and loved. It comes with house made BBQ, potatoes and broccolini. ($28) Perfect for when you want to go to an upscale meal but still have to make your man happy - this is literally a "meat and potatoes" dish. Mom got the Paneed chicken with brown butter sauce, mashed potatoes and spinach. She had no complaints! ($28) Service was very friendly and parking was no issue at all! This is a perfect place for a big group because there's something for everyone. It's casual, comfortable but still feels on the upscale side of things. We will be back!

    First time at this chain. Was pretty impressed. Parking spaces in the back (appreciate the parking…read morelot for parking a truck). Restaurant was clean. Bar was nice with 4 large TV's and nice beer and liquor selection. We opted to do the $15 flight. You get 4-1oz pours of select whiskeys. The bowman port barrel was my favorite (smooth and with good taste). The least favorite was knob creek 12 year. Was not near as smooth for a 12 year whiskey (surprised). It will out some hair on your chest! Pretzels were my favorite appetizer. It was hot and salty! Pretzels were served with beer cheese in a cast iron dish (love). The pretzels were soft and buttery. No complaints. I will knock them for this dip trio though. That salsa tasted canned from the store and not a fan of the buffalo chicken dip. Queso dip and tortilla chips were great though! Service was excellent!

After being seated in the bar area, we were informed by our server that only appetizers were available. This was both confusing and disappointing, as it does not align with reasonable expectations for a restaurant still open for regular business. If the kitchen is no longer able or willing to prepare full menu items well before closing, that policy should be clearly communicated--either through adjusted hours or by informing guests upon arrival. Otherwise, it creates the impression of inconsistent operations or a lack of coordination between management and staff. Situations like this suggest a need for clearer operational standards, better communication, and stronger staff alignment with customer service expectations. Guests should not feel discouraged from dining simply because they arrive within what should be standard service hours. Overall, the experience reflects an opportunity for improvement in both management practices and customer hospitality.
