I come here around once/week. The food is great and the staff is friendly. However, the restaurant is definitely not the cleanest that I've seen. Many surfaces in the restaurant are very dusty (looks like they haven't been cleaned in months). The women's restroom is frequently out of paper towels. I worry about what the kitchen looks like. read more

I came into The Melt in Danville to pick up my mobile order. I was met with wondrous warmth and a sincere smile. From Luis, the Assistant Manager who greeted me. The Customer Service from him was terrific, and noteworthy. As was the delectable meal prepared for me. The classic grilled cheese, paired with the tomato soup is everything. A solidly recommendable combination. A favorite choice of many, especially is for a comfort foodie like me. At any time of day/night, I'm down to indulge. I'm grateful for the late closing hours. Also, the Alameda Craft soda stations, they have at each location. Which I find are the better of options we can choose from all When electing to dine in, after ordering items. I nowadays will only choose the sodas to drink that are crafted with real cane sugar. Not the high fructose corn syrup. You can taste the real difference. I now fondly prefer the seven different Alameda Soda beverage flavors on tap. Fortunately, they are free of artificial flavors/colors. Yay! read more

We popped in for lunch on Monday after getting my new wrist cast post surgery. I needed/craved some much needed comfort food. I had the grilled cheese and the melty Mac- I was not disappointed. Who doesn't want more cheese in their lives My hubby had the dbl melt burger and fries. It was pretty busy when we were there- very popular hangout for the local high school seniors. We were able to get a table inside- it was nostalgic to hear the seniors talking about graduation and summer plans We liked the casual environment and the fun, happy energy. They do have a loyalty program- details were on the bottom of the receipt. I also noticed the next day on upside app that if you claim the offer- you can get 6% bank on your purchases Restaurant and restrooms were clean We found plenty of parking in the lot. Conveniently in the Trader Joe's lot- so of course we popped in there to walk off our decedent lunch and grab a few staples. read more

I honestly wish I could give this place zero stars. I came into The Melt in Danville with a reward I had been saving, and somehow that turned into one of the most frustrating customer service experiences I've had in a long time. First off, the staff seemed completely confused about how to apply a basic reward. What should have been a simple process turned into a back-and-forth ordeal where no one seemed to know what they were doing. I had to explain it multiple times, and even then it felt like they were just guessing. On top of that, the attitude was terrible. Instead of trying to fix the issue or even showing a little patience, they acted annoyed like I was the problem. No apology, no effort to make things right--just dismissive and unhelpful the entire time. It's honestly not that hard: know your own system and treat customers with some basic respect. Between the lack of competence and the poor customer service, I won't be coming back. Save your time and go somewhere else. read more

I'd give it a solid 4 Had the chicken bacon mac and cheese and regular fries. Fries are well cooked. Crispy and seasoned well. Mac and cheese are yummy BUT I am one of those people who cannot handle too much garlic and this one has A LOT of garlic. It was still yummy but I cannot handle that level of garlic . The place has quite a number of tables. But they get busy when the next door high school is out for lunch. read more

I've been to other locations, and I wasn't as impressed with this one. My first impression was that it was not as clean. The trash was overflowing in the bathroom, there was no more ketchup, and the ketchup/utensils area was messy. The staff is friendly and attentive, but the area needs to be cleaned a bit more frequently. Now for the food, we had some good dishes and some were ok. I came with my husband and we decided to split food so we could try a few things. The Spicy Mission Burger: This was a good burger, and we added mushrooms, lettuce, and tomatoes. The burger was a bit dry, and they forgot to add our lettuce, but overall it was good. It is tasty. Spicy Crispy Sandwich, this was my favorite. The chicken was breaded well, and the flavor was good. Three Cheese Classic with added Crumbs, this was a bit bland and I was disappointed it wasn't as cheesy. I would skip this one next time. Strawberry Shake, it was delicious! It wasn't too sweet and it was creamy. Fries, they were thin and cooked just right. The seasoning was also perfect. Overall the experience wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. I would still come back and give them a try. There were other dishes that I would like to order next time. read more

Service was friendly and accommodating. After we got our food we asked for extra jalepenos, lettuce, ranch, and raw onion, all free of charge :) I got the original melt, I recommend cooked medium so it can be extra juicy. & the Fries were crispy and seasoned deliciously! 2 bathrooms available on site read more

Was craving a burger so came where our good friends recommended to pick up. The app kept crashing, which should have red flagged us but after filling our cart 3 times (kept reseting) and attempting to pay 3 times (kept erasing my credit card), our order was placed. Estimated pick-up time on a Sunday afternoon was 9 minutes. We arrived 15 minutes later and checked on our order. The worker at the register was overwhelmed and unable to give us an estimate since they were backed up with orders. We waited for a bit, but at the 35 minute mark I checked again. He was as lost as ever and I felt bad because it didn't seem like he had any support from anyone there. There was a line of waiting customers for pick up at this point. I returned to my car to wait and after another 10 minutes, got a text that our order was ready. Worker apologized and seemed like they got our entire order correct. We ordered: - 2 melt-burgers (one well done, one regular but both were way overcooked. It was like chewing on tasteless cardboard. I was starving so still ate it. Edible but not satisfying by any means. - two fries (cold, hard and tasteless. Even my 3 year old son, who has loved every french fry he has come across up until this point, said his fries were hard and not very good.) - caesar salad- underwhelming but the best thing I ordered - spicy melt burger (husband ate it and no complaints, but he also eats week old leftovers and food he doesn't like the taste of so no surprise here) Our total was over $60 and I'm sure it was an off day because our friends have excellent taste, but even my friend said her burger was pretty awful today. Not sure what happened but The Melt fell way short and didn't melt my heart by any means. read more

Food is as good as the pics look, which is excellent. It's now one of my favorite burger joints. Nothing fancy, just a clean, well kept dining area serving great burgers. Don't come out smelling like burgers so the ventilation is very good, especially with the "garage" door open. Music is a bit louder than it needs to be but other than that, a great place to have a great burger. Really this place is a 4.5 star burger joint so after I return I'll rate it a 4.... Unless it serves up even better burgers! read more

Love their grilled cheese paired with tomato soup! I have also tried the regular Mac n cheese and it's not bad. I would say any of the melted classics on the menu are good choices. Husband got a burger and said it was alright. Leave room for dessert because the shakes are yum!! Only had the cookies n cream and strawberry before but they're very filling. read more

Yummmmmyyy! Our family of 4 visited The Melt on Friday evening for dinner and unanimously, hands down, we all love it! I ordered the Nashville spicy chicken sandwich with garlic fries and wow the chicken was thin and crispy, the sauce and jalapeños definitely gave it a spice kick, it's tasty!! The garlic Parmesan fries was delicious as well! The hubs ordered a patty melt with garlic fries and loved it. He said he's definitely down to come back. My son devoured the fajitas mac & cheese he ordered and he said he was delicious and a decent size portion. My daughter ordered a kids burger with apples . Everybody was satisfied with their meal. We were Soo full and chilling at the table and a worker came by to ask how we were doing and gave us a complimentary freshly baked chocolate chip cookie! Yummm it was warm and gooey melted chocolate!! We were full but had to try some! We'll be back for sure!! read more

Burger was a bit overcooked (for me, at least) and I was hoping for more cheese, but the mushrooms added good flavor. I enjoyed the cookies and cream smoothie. It was on the thicker side as far as shakes go, but it had good flavor. The food came out very quick, which was also nice. read more

Updated Review, for take-out: My previous review was a bit harsh from a Doordash experience. Its a totally different experience coming here in person for takeout. Plenty of parking, large, spacious interior with cool vibes, and friendly service. One unique feature is that they open really early - like 10am. This seems way too early for burgers. However. my 4yo son starts school at 11:30am, and with a busy schedule we don't always have time to cook lunch for him. Plus, he's a picky eater! Enter the Kid's Cheeseburger at Melt. Juicy beef patty that's literally encased in melted American cheese, This is much better than sliced cheese, since that way my son can't fish it out, LOL! The kid's fries are a good portion too, and always crispy and seasoned. Definitely a regular fan again, and thanks for opening at 10am while every other local restaurant seems to open 11am or 11:30am for lunch. read more

I did not get why The Melt has been so hyped when I finally tried it. It's bland yet spicy from the jalapeños and the cheese has a texture where it felt like I was chewing on wet paper. The fries were also too crispy on the outside for my liking. My boyfriend loves The Melt, but this is a big pass for me. read more

I wanted to share what a wonderful experience we had at The Melt in Danville. The customer service at this location is excellent, and we felt truly welcomed from the moment we walked in. Rolly demonstrated top-notch customer service with their friendly personality and professionalism, ensuring our order was accurate and that we were taken care of throughout our visit. We truly appreciated Rolly's attention to detail. Our food arrived quickly and was absolutely delicious, with generous portions. We ordered the Double Original burger, which was juicy and flavorful, the Shroom and Swiss burger with its savory mushroom and cheese combination, the classic Grilled Cheese, and the Chicken Original sandwich. Every dish was outstanding. The restaurant itself was very clean, bright, and offered plenty of comfortable seating. Even though we live about an hour away, we would gladly travel to The Melt in Danville again for such great service and delicious food. read more

Ok I know this place does not need another review as everyone goes - but I gotta' say that I reeeeally didn't want a burger in our drive home from Mt. Diablo but I lost out 3:1 - fiiiine - we ordered the Mac n cheese and some burgers and fries and the Portillo cheese steak sammy and reeeeally enjoyed all of it! And the staff? Super nice and engaged - I couldn't be more impressed with a chain employee in regards to interaction and service - we left full but not queasy - food wasn't greasy, we enjoyed every last bite - good value for the money as well- kids weren't hungry after burger and fries - we drove home with a smile on our faces read more

Yesterday I had my first experience at The Melt (never before been to any location) and it was a good one! I ordered the kids cheeseburger and fries as I wasn't too hungry and planned to share with my kiddo. I requested the fries to be unseasoned for my toddler's benefit and that is how they were served. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that their burgers are basically smash burgers! My cheeseburger was thin and delicious, and the fries were crispy. Service was prompt and helpful. Recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quick and affordable lunch (or dinner). read more

The food was very tasty and fresh ! However, I had trouble placing my order through the kiosk, and when I tried asking a team member for help, it was difficult since none of them spoke English. Additionally, the women's restroom was not well maintained--the light above one of the stalls was burned out, and the floor in front of the toilet was dirty and sticky. This is not acceptable and very nasty read more

Outstanding Service!! Hands down for paying attention to your customers!! Thank you! The CEO personally reached out, acknowledged the issue, and made things right without hesitation.

The Melt has fast become my favorite burger chain. Ever since I was introduced to it back in May 2023 at a Yelp event, I've developed a love for their food. Comparing to other fast casual burger and sandwich chains, their quality and taste are quite impressive, and the price point is reasonable. You can definitely get the bang for your buck here. I have been here several times since the aforementioned Yelp event and out of all the items I've tried, my favorite is definitely the Double Swiss "N" Shroom Meltburger. The soft, toasty bun, juicy beef patties, melted cheese, sauteed mushrooms, and crispy sting onions all add up to this delicious burger. Pair that with some crispy fries and a shake, there you have your perfect meal! Service wise, I have never had a bad experience here. The staff is always courteous and friendly. If you work late or have the late-night munchies, this place is definitely for you since they are open late. 5 stars! read more

Ordered for takeout a steak fajita mac with no jalapeño and garlic parmesan fries. I like how smooth and thick soupy the cheese is on the mac. The fajitas and steak gave the mac a good texture dimension while also adding good flavoring. The garlic parmesan fries is super potent and you can taste the garlic before eating it due to the strong aromas-I like it. read more

Made the mistake of pre-ordering again (it was the only place open in Danville at 11pm). Upon arrival we had to wait a ridiculous amount of time just for an employee to move the bag 5 feet from the prep area to the counter. Of course the food was all cold because they do not use heat lamps. The staff were not doing much and seemed uninterested in serving. They also got one item wrong (again). Fool me once, jokes on you. Fool me twice, jokes on me. I will be avoiding this place absent a serious attitude adjustment. read more

The staff were accommodating and understanding. The Melt looks really nice with the decor and outdoor-indoor seating. The food seems pricy due to the location. I rate the food a 5/10 with the flavors not being there for me. The meat was not seasoned and cooked medium with no visible option to order otherwise on the kiosk. The burger options look very intriguing. During my visit the milkshakes were unavailable so I was unable to order that. read more

This is an update: The third time must be the charm. I ordered the burgers on three occasions - the first two times the burgers had little or no cheese. The third time, the burgers came just like they look in the pictures- with lots of cheese dripping over the burger. It was amazing! I will continue to order from The Melt because their food can be great. read more

I found this place on yelp and decided to try it. It's in a shopping center that's a little busy. This place is pretty cool it has a garage door that opens. You walk in and you order your food you're on a monitor. Then you get a buzzer. We went on a Friday and they were pretty fast. I didn't like that there was no mustard or mayo option. The burger had a hint of spice that I really liked. They don't really come with much on them no lettuce, tomatoes, or pickles. I ordered one hamburger meal, kids meal, a hamburger, an extra sweat potato fries, and two shakes for $50. I liked it but the burger was a bit greasy but my son loved it. Overall we had a good experience. read more

Burger is amazing. They also have craft soda. When you order make sure to get the extra stuff on the burger or else it will come with just patty, cheese and buns. They're located near the iron horse trail, so get yo fat butt on the trail after you gobble up a nice double patty burger with a craft soda. The servers are friendly! They have a nice big wall that opens up provides a good outdoor space for you to eat there. Amazing spot during the summer. read more

Unfortunately, we have had a few very poor customer service issues at The Melt the past few times we have been here. I am being very generous with a 2 star review. The employees are rude and act like you're a bother to order from them. They seriously need to refresh upon BASIC customer service skills. The older employees are not there when we go and we get eye rolls, sighs, and droopy shoulders screaming "Why am I even here??!!" Do not dare ask for anything that THEY forgot to add to your order. I told my husband no more coming here until they re-vamp. Please do not send a generic response and seriously RE-TRAIN your staff here or hire employees who are happy to have an after school job. read more

Best burgers salad and side dishes! I will be taking my family here again! We love it here!

Good burger spot in Danville. Solid food every time we come. One helpful tip is avoid lunch time! Unfortunately, the kids from the high school next door take over the place even though they don't buy their food there (most of them were either eat Chipotle or they had home containers). They just use the tables and then leave the place a wreck for the employees to clean after. read more

The location is great, easy parking and the atmosphere is really fun. Inside and outside tables! But the burger patties are NOT GOOD. Flavorless and bland and really leaves you hoping for more. Their fries were great! I wish they gave more because after only eating half of my flavorless burger, I wanted more fries. Service was friendly and location was clean. But man, how do you serve an unseasoned patty?! read more
