I'm still giving Melty 4 stars even though the wait for food was about 25-30 minutes. My only advice is to make sure you leave enough time or order ahead if you can. The shop itself was cute and clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I was torn between several sandwiches because so many sounded amazing, so I asked for a recommendation. They steered me toward the French Dip--and they were absolutely right. The sandwich was hot, tender, salty, and downright delicious, especially dipped in the au jus. Totally worth the wait. read more

First visit to Melty, not impressed. The crew working was young, but super polite and accommodating. The fault is with the management. How does a sandwich place run out of bread? They had to substitute burger buns instead of their standard bread. I wish I had looked at the reviews more closely before visiting, as this seems to be a trend: running out of key ingredients. Overall, the food quality just wasn't there, very low-quality ingredients for the price. The only reason for the two stars is the crew members; otherwise, it's a one out of five for us--no plans on returning. read more

Melty - Sandwiches Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Tried over summer. Just getting to review. Grilled sandwich place in shopping center at dam neck and pa rd. Ordered on line. Still had a fairly long wait. Boss and son??(teenager only working). Needed more staff. Boss friendly and apologetic about wait. Cuban sandwich very good. sort of local take. Little pricey for what you get. Would try something else if in area. Unless you live near pa court house, it's pretty far out. Three. Need to iron out problems. read more

Fast, friendly and efficient service. My wife got the Turkey Bacon and loved it. I ordered the French Dip. My sandwich was tasty and the Au Jus was perfect and not too salty. We both loved all the signs throughout the store. The location was very clean and inviting. While the prices were reasonable, we thought that the price for a combo was a bit expensive. read more

Melty is located in the Landstown Commons Shopping Center. They are located in the middle area where Chipotle and others are located. Parking out front is limited and see it full most of the time. There is additional parking available behind that part of the shopping center, which is where I would normally park to avoid the bustle of the front facing parking. My most recent visit here was on October 23, 2025. Once you come inside, you can see the inside is pretty small all things considered. The maximum occupancy allowed is only 52 people. The inside features lots of Melty logos and such too. There is an ordering kiosk to the left after entering, or you can order at the counter. My first visit here was on June 20, 2025. My mom was with me as well, so we both got some food items while here. We had gotten a coupon in the mail, so that's how I first found out about the business. It was a busy time since it was during the noon hour. At the counter, there is also a Melty Bingo card that you can use to earn items as you try different menu items. They also have an app and loyalty rewards program. On this first visit, after looking over the options, I went with the Chicken Parmesan Melty and Cheese Curds as a side. My mom got the Four Cheese Classic Melty with a cup of the Cheesy Broccoli Soup. After about 5-10 minutes, our food was ready. They did forget the cheese curds, but they fixed that pretty quickly. They gave me the full order of it instead of just the amount for a side due to that. I don't normally do sandwiches and such too often since I try to keep my blood sugars under control. However, the Chicken Parmesan Melty and Cheese Curds were so good. Yes, it did spike my blood sugars, but I don't do this often. The food definitely hit the spot, and my mom really liked the soup and Four Cheese Melty too. I hadn't been here in a while, so I came back for a second time on October 23, 2025. This time, my mom and I came in for an early dinner. It wasn't busy at the time, so it was good to have some time to look over the options. On this visit, I decided to try the Melty Burger, adding bacon and using pepper jack cheese instead along with Cheese Curds. My mom just did the Cheesy Broccoli Soup cup this time. The food didn't take long since it was pretty quiet at the time. The Melty Burger was excellent. It was cooked just right and had some good flavors with it. The Cheese Curds were just as good as the previous visit too. Although my blood sugar spiked, it was still a great treat as it's not something I do often. Overall, I have had very good experiences with both visits. They also offer a 10% Military or 10% Senior Discount as well. You may just need to ask for that. The staff on both visits were attentive and willing to answer any questions we had. This place is definitely worth checking out if you are in this part of the city and looking for something to eat. read more

I have never been here so I was excited to get a sandwich. They had so many options and I wanted to try them all but I went with turkey avocado. I am so happy I did. The cashier repeated back what I ordered which I enjoyed. I switched the cheese the sandwich came with havarti, and cheddar cheese. Ny side was the melty mac and I was able to pick a sauce and got the fry sauce. I dipped my sandwich in the sauce and I loved it. It's super clean inside and lots of seat space. I did not have to wait long either. I picked to have a fountain drink that came with my meal. The crunch you get from the sandwich when you bite it, is to die for. The sandwich was juicy and tasty. I can't wait to come back and try someone else! read more

Not sure if it's the same place that you can order from DoorDash late at night - pictures of their melts are so good! The dining area has enough seats for about 20 to 25 people. Wanted to eat something light (white bread) but substantial so ordered the beef brisket BBQ melt. Am not usually keen on bbq sauce so I ordered this with jalapeño jelly to contrast with spicy sweet. The to go order was ready in about 10 minutes. Other yelp reviewers had the chance to meet the owners, no such luck for me today! Service was good though. Now for the Bbq brisket melt - it was packed in a nice box and then in a bag for to go. I got home and dug in - the brisket melt was absolutely delicious with the jalapeño jam was packed on the side. I was glad I picked the jam because it was as I imagined as a great contrast to the barbecue sauce. Definitely a 5 for the melt! read more

Adding an update based on the owner's comment - I just want to note that while we did come on Black Friday, it was not busy inside. They were just slow. ---- Just meh. We decided to take a break from Black Friday shopping an stopped here for a quick bite. It took 15 min to get our food after we ordered. I got the gobbler because it's my fav. It came with stuffing, deli turkey meat, cranberry sauce, and cheese. I made it a combo so I got a tea and cheese curds. I didn't realize it would have deli meat instead of real turkey meat until I got the sandwich. I wouldn't have ordered if I knew that. We actually wouldn't have even come here if we knew that. Cheese curds were good and it all came with a dipping cup of gravy. Hubby got a Cuban and said it was mediocre. It was small and was falling apart. He got the cheese fries for his combo sir and said the cheese wasn't even warm. I'd definitely skip this place. $44 for our two mediocre sandwiches, sides and drinks. read more

We stopped by Melty for lunch. It was pretty busy. I thought it was fast food, but it's really not. So be prepared for a wait. I was there for 22 minutes. At that point I thought I worked there. The girl who took my order was so lackluster and bland I thought I'd need a therapist when I left. My whole bubbly vibe exited stage left. I found myself matching her energy. The guy who was bagging orders was nice and friendly. He kinda redeemed the situation. The prices are kinda high in my eyes, even with inflation $10 for a burger that has absolutely nothing special about it is sorta crazy to me. I got a burger and loaded fries combo and another side of fries for $23. Whoa!!! I expected to be impressed, but that wasn't the case. The burger was bland, but it was a good size and I liked the bread. It did look good. The loaded fries were pretty good, but for a $7.25 upcharge I expected a bigger portion. My daughter who had just a plain order of fries couldn't finish them because they tasted like grease. I thought she was mistaken so I tried them, and nope, she was correct. I'd probably try a different sandwich next time. They have several different sauces, which is cool. The fry sauce and BBQ sauce were good. They have several interested things on the menu. Tater tots, cookies, brownies, sandwiches, and even cheese curds. The way the line is to order is kinda weird to me because if it's busy, your left with you butt in people's faces at the tables by the register. It just wasn't enough space to stand in because the line to order meshes with the drink section and it was just too much. I think once the kinks are worked out and things flow more smoothly it could be better. I'll give them another shot before deciding how I feel. Check them out!! read more

Melty is a new, local spot that just opened 4 months ago and I must say, it was definitely what the area needed. As you walk in, you're either able to order from the kiosk in the front, which was very convenient, or with a person in the back, in the case you have questions or want to pay with cash. Since their specialty are their sandwich melts, I decided on the BBQ Pulled Pork, which consisted of pulled pork, mozzarella, fontina, bbq sauce and onion rings. My friend decided on the BBQ Brisket, which included burnt ends brisket, pepper jack, cheddar, Caramelized onions and bbq sauce. We decided on their signature, Melty Mac as well. It was a little bit crowded and it was probably due to the local news featuring Melty that same day but our food was ready in about 20 mins. Both sandwiches were amazing! The flavors in the pulled pork and the brisket tasted wonderful! My friend's sandwich was served with about 3 onion rings but they graciously brought out more once they realized she had so few. The Melty Mac was very creamy and cheesy, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Overall, we had a great experience at Melty. We were even able to meet one of the owners while we were there. I highly recommend stopping in and trying them out. I will definitely be returning!!! read more

Flavorful Sandwiches & Great Vibes -- Loved the Brisket! Stopped by Melty for lunch after hearing about it on the local news station, and was super impressed with the food and overall vibe! I ordered the barbecue beef brisket grilled cheese sandwich, and it was absolutely amazing. The brisket was tender and flavorful, and the BBQ sauce had a rich, tangy taste that really brought the sandwich together. Easily one of the best grilled cheese combos I've had in a while! The french fries and onion rings on the side were solid, but the onion rings in particular stood out -- perfectly crispy and seasoned just right. We also tried the macaroni and cheese, which was super cheesy and creamy. Personally, it was a little too creamy for my taste, but I can see how others might love that texture. Service was good overall. When we first walked in, we weren't sure how to order -- we used the kiosk since it seemed like the main option, but later realized we could've ordered at the counter. A quick heads-up from staff would've been helpful, but it didn't take away from the experience. My friend got the pork sandwich, and we ended up swapping bites. While both sandwiches were good, I definitely preferred the brisket -- full of flavor and just a better balance overall. Sidenote, I even got to meet one of the owners and talk to her briefly. She seemed very nice. She was actually doing an interview with the local newspaper at the time. Can't wait to go back and try more of the menu. Melty definitely knows how to do comfort food right! read more

We went to this location twice, but ordered food once because of the speed. The workers are extremely slow and move like there is not importance. The food however is good whenever you get it. We got this triple cheese grilled sandwich. The owner or manager guy is definitely very ignorant. He yells at all his workers even though who are just training and belittles them. I saw him talk to a customer ordering food for his friend and told him that needs to order himself since he needs to practice his English and kept saying use your words and learn to speak more. He also goes in and out of the place like randomly checking out the light bulb outside the shop that belongs to the shopping center and not the shop to make himself look busy. I think the place would thrive with new management. read more

Took 20+ minutes to make Grilled cheese on a slow day? yikes. We got the cuban and the melt and the staff took their time. One staff didn't have gloves while cooking One staff forgot a person's order so they got a brownie instead Staff just didn't care about serving us. It was a wild ride in Melty. I gave Melty a 3 because of this and the food was okay. Like it's not hard to mess up sandwiches I guess but there was nothing that was exciting about this place. read more

Went on a Tuesday evening for dinner. Menu was basically cut in half because they were out of SO MANY things. Husband ordered a Reuben....and while making it (after we paid), they said they didn't have all the ingredients for it. The two guys working were very apologetic about it, and did their best to accommodate us as best they could. The "full" size salad I ordered was...disappointing at best. Most restaurants would consider that serving a 'side' salad, not an entree. Also received a wild amount of dressing...like enough for 3 LARGE salads. That made no sense. The dining area is clean and quiet which is nice. Overall, we weren't impressed and probably won't go back. read more

Buyer Beware. The cost doesn't match the quality of this food. It's expensive for a very small amount. The service and ambience was ok but if you want a reuben go to Arbys. It's way better. I wish I could show you a picture of this sandwich and how pathetic it was. read more

My kids said 10/10. I have picky kids...well mainly my 16 year old daughter. And grilled cheese with tomato soup is her most favorite. She was so happy to have found this place. My son tried the ham and Swiss without the tomatoes and onions and was in heaven with the melty Mac which he loved. I ate the turkey bacon grilled cheese which was very filling with cheese tots I love the melted cheese they have for them. We also tried the fries. They were okay but my son liked it better when he dipped them into his Mac and cheese. My daughter also loves the milkshakes! Cute little restaurant that took over the sweetberry food place in Landstown Commons. Really hope it does well! My daughter needs a place to eat out that isnt always italian!! Go check them out! read more

I came for a quick dinner and of course to check out a new place. It's casual....you go up to the register and order. Menu is posted on the wall. You pay and wait. Drinks are self serve and you clean up after yourself. It was a tough decision but finally decided on the French Dip. I also got some tomato basil soup. Pros and Cons....service was friendly but slow. They were trying and working hard. Being new that's what I would expect. They haven't figured out the rhythm of being a team. My sandwich was good. Perfectly toasted. The aus jou was good and plentiful. I was a bit disappointed in the soup. I paid almost $3 for 2 ounces of soup.....4 spoonfuls. Either less money or more soup. The soup was good enough. It was clean inside. I would come back if I was in the area.....especially lunch. To me this is more of a lunch place. read more

What's one of the best classic comfort foods you can have? A grilled cheese! Who has amazing grill cheeses that are next level? Melty in Landstown Commons! I had the pleasure of trying them out for the first time a couple of days ago and they were phenomenal! From the staff to the food it was a 20/10! I would share pictures of the food we ate but we were too busy enjoying the food that we forgot to take the pictures but let me tell you it's worth the trip to experience it for yourselves! we ordered The Classic, Chicken Parm and The Cuban for the sandwiches, onion rings, loaded fries and cheese curds for the sides, tomato basil soup for dipping and an Oreo milkshake for dessert. Everything was fresh, perfectly crisped and delicious. So give them a shot you won't be disappointed! read more

Tonight, my wife and I tried Melty in Lansdtown. It was around 7:00/:30 and the place was empty. We ordered and received our food within 5 minutes. I ordered and ham and swiss and I was not expecting to be that effing good. The cheese pull alone should've told me to buckle up and prep myself for a banger. I almost (seriously debated with myself) ordering another to go just so I could have it later on. The sandwich was so buttery, the cheese was gooey, the ham was savory. It brought me back to elementary school eating a hot ham and cheese for lunch. I'm so upset that I did not order another one. We will definitely visit again. read more

Melty - Ham and Swiss - Sandwiches Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Visited this place on a Sunday afternoon (lunch time). We were told that they were out of butter, so their usual sandwiches would be just toasted-not like what they normally would do. They also let us know that they were out of several of the sandwiches. We asked if they had the ingredients for a Cuban and they said yes. We ordered 2 Cubans. The Cuban was described as pulled pork, ham, cheese, pickles with a mustard aioli. What we were given was a ham and cheese sandwich with pickles and mayo. The tater tots were warm, but not hot. Super disappointing to say the least. We'll not be back. read more

I have been to melty many times and I must say I have had remarkable service every time. I have gone during very busy hours and the staff was very attentive to all of the customers coming in greeting everyone with a smile and letting them know there would be a wait and approximately how long the wait would be and no one waited the full extent of their time. I have tired many of the sandwiches. I have had the bbq pulled pork, four cheese, brisket, ham and cheese and my all time favorite the French dip. Every sandwich has been incredibly made....i just love to dip the French dip into the au jus...10/10! I must say I went there for lunch today and was blessed with an opportunity to speak to someone I believe to be the owner of this franchise maybe. He was AMAZING! We spoke about Melty offering catering and what that would look like. He was so passionate about the food and the opportunity to provide for his community. I will be sure to spread the word that the customer service and the food is phenomenal. Thank you for a consistently great experience! read more

Great food, and amazing workers!! They got the food out quickly and were super kind. They played great music as well.

We went to Melty because my son got a gift card he requested for his birthday. We've been there several times and when we told the owner, it was his birthday and he requested a gift card for Melty, they sing him happy birthday, they started asking the questions and made him feel welcome. This may be a chain franchise, but they definitely have a mom and Pop feel. I love the personal touches they provide. read more

Loved the caprese sandwich and smothered fries. Didn't seem heavy or greasy, like I normally think of grilled cheese. Will be back.

Like most of the other negative reviews this place has an extended wait. My wife preordered from this place well in advance and received a text message stating that it was ready after an extended amount of time waiting. After we got the alert that it was ready I went to the business and found out it hadn't even been started yet. When I asked the guy about it he shrugged me off a d said they sent the text by mistake. Possibly two of the slowest workers I ever observed in my life as I had plenty of time waiting inside the restaurant. The quality of people working, attention to detail and quality of service have been lost. read more

This was tough rating. I ordered online for curbside pickup. I finally went in after determining they would be closing soon. The crew were not working together which I expected for a new place. From time ordering until pickup was 50 minutes. They were out of onion rings, I chose a substitute and after sandwiches were made was informed no cheese for fries. The sandwiches were fairly good, we had the French dip and brisket sandwiches. Toasted golden, right amount of sauce and meat. Fries and tater tots were not that great. All in all, I would give them another try maybe in a few months. And I paid more for the onion rings then fries but was told would not charge me any additional for having to substitute. And I paid for drinks, I never got. read more

Excellent sandwiches; always outstanding service. Good value. Good for children as well.

I love the creativity of the melts available and range of soup serving sizes. The bread was perfectly toasted, but I do wish my BBQ Pulled Pork melt had more sauce on it. The tomato basil soup was great on a rainy day, but it is chunky (just be warned if that's not your thing!). The service was great, would recommend for lunch or dinner. read more

Melty - BBQ Pulled Pork Melt Tomato Basil Dipper - Sandwiches Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

I took my mom to this place to get a bite to eat before headed to a ballgame. They weren't crowded. We ordered at the register from a kid that looked like he didn't have a care in the world. If I was the manager I would have sent him home. After ordering it took 30 minutes for the three guys that were actually working to make 2 patty melts with tater tots. The patty melts only had maybe 2 or 3 onions on them. And all of this cost about $34. This is the second time I've been to this location. Sadly it's the last time I go here. Way overpriced, food portions are small, takes forever to get your food. They're are plenty of other places where you get way better service and get your food a lot faster. read more

Went here on a recommendation. Appears clean and new. Ordered ahead on the app. Was a 20 min wait at lunch with a pretty empty building. Got a text that my order was ready but was told it wasn't. Sandwiches are barely filled with meat and cheese. Was charged $7 for a tiny soup cup and a drink. The staff was kind and helpful, but the long wait and lack of value is hard to look past. I will not visit again and advise you look elsewhere. read more

Melty - Chocolate and raspberry Milkshake - Sandwiches Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

The sandwiches were alright. I would've preferred Texas toast sized slices of bread and more brisket and cheese on the inside of mine. We basically paid $70 for pretty basic grilled cheese sandwiches and fries that we could've made at home. There was nothing special about their menu items. They were also out of the dipping sauce for the French dip sandwich; it was 15 minutes after opening. The fries were crispy but could've used more flavor. I might consider going back if they changed to thicker slices of bread and at least twice as much sandwich filling. read more

When we walked in, we were greeted immediately and were able to ask questions about anything on menu. The workers were nice and friendly and attentive to everything that we were asking. When we ordered the food, the owner described everything down to a T. When the food came out, everything was fresh and made to order.i would recommend the barbecue brisket melt. read more

Amazing food, great price point and friendly staff. Randy took really good care of my girlfriend and I and we will be sure to return soon!

Mom surprised my sister and I with a lunch date here. I really enjoyed it. This location had just opened so we were excited to try it. I ordered a brisket grilled cheese with just Cheddar, a drink, and fries with fry sauce. All of which were tasty. Other members of my group ordered the four cheese grilled cheese and the cheese pull was top tier. I would say if you like comfort food or are looking for a good lunch spot this is the place for you. Their menu had soups, salad, typical sides (fries, fried cheese, Tots, ect.) + desserts and milkshakes in addition to Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and an array of different sauces. I was very surprised by how much I enjoyed the fry sauce here and there were so many of options for sandwiches that I would like to try in the future. The drinks are self serve, the staff are nice, and I also really like the modern sandwich shop aesthetic + the wait wasn't very long. Overall I would rate this place a 7/10 it's a good and fun lunch option. read more
