    Got the spicy chicken sandwich and fajita Mac. Spicy chicken was delicious but could use more of that spicy sauce. Wasn't enough. It was missing the flavor with most bites. The Mac was okay. It needs some seasoning. The Mac was creamy but extremely plain. If not for the fajita toppings. The Mac would have no flavor

    DOUBLE MELT-BURGER with lettuce wrap
    Robert L.

    Pulled up to Melt in the Palladio to meet a friend who works nearby--she sent that "I need food" text and I took it as a mission. Parking here is abundant, which already puts you in a good mood because nothing kills a craving faster than circling a lot like you're in a scavenger hunt. Walked in and that grilled cheese smell hit immediately... any thought of eating light was gone just like that. The place felt clean, relaxed, no weird chaos, just people in there enjoying what they came for. Now the food... yeah this isn't that basic grilled cheese from back in the day, this is the grown version that shows up with confidence. I went with a double spicy mushroom melt lettuce wrap with a fried egg and a mini Mac on the side... yeah I made a decision and stood on it. Crispy, cheesy, a little messy in the best way, and that fried egg just took it to another level. Every bite had me pausing for a second like hold on... let me respect this. I'm sitting across from my friend trying to keep a conversation going but also fully focused on not missing a single bite. Portions don't mess around either, you're leaving full and already thinking about what you're getting next time. And then there's Vic... super polite, welcoming, just good people. He wasn't just behind the counter, he was moving around, checking on folks, asking how everything was, even offering cookies which caught me off guard in the best way. It didn't feel forced, it felt real, like he actually cares about the experience people are having. Everyone that walked in got that same energy. And I'll be honest, I never write reviews on the spot--I go home, sit down at my computer, and give it that extra flavor I like putting into my reviews... but this one? I was already running it back in my head before I even left the parking lot. Melt didn't just come through on the food, they made it feel like more than just a quick stop.

    Grilled cheese and back ranch cheese fries

    Grilled cheese classic was awesome . Service was great and Vic the manager was offering customers free samples of warm choc chip cookies

    We have not been in this area for a while now and we really enjoyed The Melt our first time here. One of the best burgers and melts we have had. We also loved their design, open air entrance providing a lot of refreshing outside air and breeze. The staff again was very helpful and friendly with their service. Als9 offerr8ng free samples of their chocolate chip cookies. The Double Melt was amazing , cooked perfectly, and so filling. The melts both had an awesome amount of cheese and they were sooooo stretchy. Also cooked and prepared well. The garlic parm fries were loaded with garlic and so tasty, blasting with garlic flavor in each bite. Can't wait to come back to this area soon to have another bite.

    Kiosks to order from
    Janiah S.

    First time here though I've wanted to try for some time now. I like the corner space the have in the pilladio that allows for indoor and outdoor seating with a roll up door in between that gives the inside some welcomed fresh air. They have kiosks you can order from. I ordered the spicy burger and hubby ordered the double cheeseburger. We got a soda regular fries and tried the cookie. The burgers were so juicy and flavorful, the bun was a good quality bun. Ingredients tasted and appeared very fresh. THe jalapeños were sliced raw peppers and we so good on it. Hubby enjoyed his double cheeseburger too. They have condiment packets w mayo ketchup and mustard available, but you honestly don't need it at all because the burgers are tasty the way they are! The pickle on the side was delightful, super crunchy and flavorful. The fries had some sort of green seasoning on it, may have been finely chopped dill or parsley I'm not sure but worked well on the fries. The potion was a pleasant surprise too! We shared one and it was plenty for us. The sodas are natural sodas w real sugar! Big plus in my book! I'm not a soda drinker but when I splurge, it's nice to have this available. The ginger beer soda has a strong ginger flavor that I thoroughly enjoyed but hubby didn't care for. The root beer soda was also very tasty. The double chocolate cookie was cooked to perfection and the chocolate pieces were all melted and warm... sooooo good to top off an excellent meal! The spicy burger was 11.99 and the double cheeseburger was 15.99. The fries were 3.99. Last but definitely not least, an employee named Vic came to check on us and was genuine with making sure we were enjoying our meals and making sure we had everything we needed. Simple but thoughtful and sincere engagement makes dining here memorable. Thank you! We will definitely be back!

    OMG this place is . The burger was good and juicy. Unfortunately the bun fell apart before I finished the burger. The garlic fries are to die for I would definitely order the them again. I don't think that I would order a double next time. A single burger is plenty. The service was good and the ambience was cool. It's inside of the Palladio. I'll definitely come back.

    Came here for a quick bite the other night. Very cool looking place, trendy, and kept very clean. The grilled cheese was actually pretty decent along with the side of a pickle. Kind of wish they offered a little bit more with a combo, like fries or chips. Maybe they did but this is what we grabbed. I also had a side Cobb salad that was OK. Wasn't anything extraordinary, but I think more of their attention goes into their burgers and sandwiches. The meat in the salad was pretty bland nothing worth bragging about. They have a different brand of sodas there and I thought those are OK. I would recommend this place. Located in the Palladio which is always very nice to walk around it. Customer service was good. We were greeted once we entered and we were acknowledged when leaving.

    We ordered the patty melts on spicy garlic bread and added mushrooms.... so good!!! Don't forget a tomato soup on the side. Vick was extremely helpful, knowledgeable about the menu, and personable. We'll definitely be back!!

    My daughter and I visited The Melt for the first time, and I can honestly say it exceeded our expectations. Since it was our first visit, we weren't sure what to order, but Jason, the manager, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He was incredibly friendly, patient, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. His recommendations and willingness to help made the entire experience enjoyable from the moment we walked in. I ordered the Crispy Caesar Salad, and my daughter chose the Classic Cheese Melt with fries. Everything was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were fresh, the food was prepared perfectly, and the portions were generous. It was clear that quality and customer satisfaction are priorities here. In addition to the great food, the restaurant was clean, inviting, and well-maintained. The level of customer service we received from Jason truly stood out and made our visit memorable. It's not often that you encounter someone who genuinely cares about creating a positive experience for every guest. Thank you, Jason, for your outstanding hospitality and for making our first visit such a wonderful one. We left happy, full, and already looking forward to coming back. The Melt has definitely earned two new loyal customers, and it will absolutely become one of our regular spots. I highly recommend giving this place a try! Thank you, Dr. Bailey

    Went to the aquarium down tjew street and needed something quick before our next animal encounter. We walked in here and were warmly greeted. Lacy helped us out and answered all our questions. The food was ready in a matter of minutes and we had no complaints. The garlic fries used fresh garlic and we loved them with all the sauces they gave us. 10 out of 10 HIGHLY recommend.

The lobster bites came with a lemon wedge and their house Thousand Island sauce, and that sauce was incredible. The combination of the crispy lobster, lemon, and sauce worked perfectly together. The broccolini was also seasoned really well and paired nicely with the grilled lemon. I ordered an Old Fashioned, and it was one of the smoothest I've had. One detail I loved was that they stamped the restaurant's logo into the ice cube. Small touch, but really cool. For my main course, I ordered the Grilled Huli Huli Chicken with a crispy rice cake, pineapple, greens, and a house sauce that completely made the dish. The sweet and tangy flavor paired perfectly with the chicken. Me and my girlfriend also shared the mac and cheese, and honestly, this was one of the best mac and cheeses I've had. It was rich, creamy, well-seasoned, and the breadcrumbs on top added the perfect texture. My girlfriend ordered the braised short rib with garlic mashed potatoes and carrot purée. The short rib was so tender it practically fell apart with a fork. Everything on the plate was delicious. One thing that surprised me was the portion sizes. Everything was very filling, and we ended up taking some food home. By the time dessert came around, we were already pretty full, but there was no way we were skipping it. To finish the night, we shared the Ghirardelli triple chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, and strawberries. It was the perfect way to end the meal. The restaurant was busy and lively, but it never felt crowded. The tables were spaced out really well, so my girlfriend and I could still enjoy our conversation and watch the basketball game. I also appreciated seeing Chef Q and his wife walking around and checking on guests throughout the night. They stopped by tables to see how everyone was enjoying their food, which was a really nice touch. I even had the chance to take a picture with Chef Q before we left, which was super cool. Between the food, service, atmosphere, and attention to detail, this is easily one of the top restaurants I've been to in Sacramento. Definitely worth a visit.

And I hate to even mention this, but it was definitely a thing for us... the musician, whom I LOVED for his talent and music... was just too loud for us. Not sure what to suggest on that. We enjoyed the music, but we couldn't hear anything else. We couldn't hear each other... we couldn't hear the waiter more often than not... the horn (clarinet) just blasted us out. We weren't RIGHT next to him, we were a couple tables away... but the same side of the room as him. In the future, I'll try to be seated further away if I'm with a group that wants to talk. I'll be back... but maybe after I take an ASL course.

They are a little pricier, but it's *usually* worth it. Recently, I noticed this location on Sunrise, found out that it was in fact the *original* location, and decided to give it a try. The burger was good. I would never want to discourage anyone from trying this small business. I mostly want to hype them up. But I also want to be honest that if either of my last two experiences with Hot Bunz had been my first, they would have also been my last. A few weeks ago, I had a less than stellar experience at the Elk Grove location. My food was good, but did not nearly live up to the brand expectations. I thought, surely this was just a fluke incidence. Surely the OG location will be even better. Upon entering the Sunrise location, I was immediately impressed with the artwork on the walls. The murals themselves are like a slap in the face to all the major competitors. I loved that there was no line. I had actually been on my way to my favorite In N Out location, but came here instead due to an obscene line. Someone from the back yelled out, "I'll be right with you!" I could hear him washing dishes for a few minutes before he came out. It felt clear that I had arrived during a break in the storm, and he was trying to catch up. I asked him what came on the OG, and either he was extremely stoned, or he has a speech impediment that is so severe that maybe he shouldn't be working the front counter (but what I'm saying is: he was high AF). Look, it's no secret that virtually all restauranteurs are high virtually all the time. I'm not trying to be a Karen, I'm just saying that literally the only two words I could make out were "patties" and "grilled onions." I said, "let me just try that." "No fries or drink?" "No, just the burger." "Nine seventy. HEY! IT'S JUST AN OG!" He began yelling to the back before turning his body, resulting in him yelling in my face. Of course, I would never expect the burger I receive to look exactly like the burger in the picture-- but this didn't even look like the same burger that was being advertised on the promotional signage. The burger in the promo was stacked high with some kind of slaw, pickles, and sauce. My actual burger had barely any toppings. As someone who worked at McDonald's for a few years as a teenager, I felt that this burger had exactly the same amount of rizz as regular cheeseburger from Ronald. I came here for an "extra" burger, but (as evidenced by the picture I uploaded) received a burger that could have come from any public country club kitchen. And, while these onions may have graced the grill, the onions I received are not what most people would refer to as "grilled onions." I'm not sure if Hot Bunz is going downhill, or if I just had two fluke bad experiences in a row.
