    tomato soup and swiss n shroom meltburger
    Sierra I.

    I got the swiss n shroom burger and it was amazing! I dipped it in their ranch and it was even better! The service was great and the man working there was so sweet and gave us free cookies. There's lots of seating outside, perfect for big groups. Definitely coming back PS. they validate parking!

    A quick food spot with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. You can order on a kiosk so you don't have much interaction with staff. There's bathrooms available and an assortment of drinks. I ordered the bacon avocado grilled cheese and it did not have any flavor. I tried the sweet potato fries and they were ok. Overall not bad just average.

    The burgers were so good! They have a little pink in the middle if you have kids that are picky.. but the food was absolute perfection. We stopped here before stars on ice last week. It was are first time and it was a little busy. All the mobile counters to order were full but the guy working up front was very friendly and let us know he was available to take our order. Our food was fresh and came out in a fair amount of time and was delicious. I got a regular burger but my friend got a bbq one, I think I'll try that one next time.

    A burgah!

    Food was hot and fresh! Melted cheese on all the things. Burger was a good size. I mistakenly got the double expecting something much smaller. WRONG! That burger was huge! The Mac and cheese was good. My favorite was the cane sugar soda. So good!

    Long time fan of The Melt! I'm an even bigger fan now with their fried chicken sandwiches!! They are huge!! I've never seen such a big fried chicken sandwich! The sauce they use on it is phenomenal! They need to start selling bottles of it!

    IMPOSSIBLE SPICY MISSION

    the place is spacious and there's kiosk to order from, the employees were so kind, we went after midnight and it took about 10 mins to get our food but it was fresh and everything tasted great with high quality ingredients, i love how there's 3 impossible burger options to choose from for my boyfriend who doesn't eat meat, the cheese fries and mac and cheese were so yummy, needless to say ill for sure be coming back soon, this location closes at 2 am which is a huge plus for me since im a night owl

    The three cheese classic melt is made with sharp cheddar, muenster & fontina. The sandwich bread is French bread. It is cheesy and full of flavor. It helps me feel satisfied and full. The melt burger has cheddar, jalapeño--pickle mix, and Melt sauce. I didn't think I could taste much of the Melt sauce to make it different from other hamburgers. I could taste more of the jalapeño and pickle mix. The staff was very friendly. Did a take out order over the phone. The restaurant is located on the corner of an intersection so it makes it easy to find. They have large glass windows so you can easily see inside. The Wall is basically two large panes of glass. This makes the restaurant seem more open and a larger space.

    The Melt - ASU Tempe @ Novus Place Original Burger Melt more than 1/3 pound of Angus & Wagyu beef, chopped, grilled and filled with loads of melted cheddar, jalapeños (not too spicy), pickles and Melt sauce on a toasted, artisan bun. (cooked medium, pink & juicy. Good burger, size and taste. Swiss and Shroom Burger more than 1/3 pound of Angus & Wagyu beef, chopped, grilled and filled with loads of melted swiss, fresh spinach, grilled mushrooms, crispy onions & ranch (cooked medium, pink & juicy) is solid winner. Cheddar Bacon Ranch Fries smothered in cheddar sauce, with crispy bacon and ranch sauce, is a solid choice, all condiments work well together. The warm Chocolate Chip Cookies are a winner The signage is a little confusing outside, there is a vertical sign on the corner, but the store front sign says " World's Meltiest Burger" This is a solid place for a burger

    Raw burger from The Melt

    This is the raw hamburger that was served to me in my to go order. While I was refunded my money back it is a health hazard and I was still hungry. Be aware.

    SPICY MISSION CHICKEN

    I've been to the Melt in Scottsdale and it was pretty good so I tried the one in Tempe. This is one of those places you order on a screen, then you take a pager and go grab your food from the counter when your pager goes off, and then clear your own table by taking everything tot the garbage when you're done. I never had to talk to a single person, but the machine still asks for a tip on the meal. This time I went with a spicy mission grilled chicken sandwich, but I should have stuck with the burgers. My chicken was tough and chewy and really salty. The fries were still pretty good though.

    ORIGINAL CHICKEN MELT

    Great burgers, I got the mushroom swiss burger and it was really good, a little greasy but overall lots of flavor very juicy. My boyfriend got the chicken sandwich which was pretty good, it wasn't anything crazy though. We also got this snickerdoodle shake which was really really good actually. Inside is nice, we came few days after opening and it was pretty quiet (we also went on a sunday at like 4pm). You order off a tablet and they bring out your food for you. Very casual but fun place for a nicer burger than fast food. A little over priced in my opinion, but nonetheless the food was good

    ORIGINAL CHICKEN MELT
    Desiree D.

    Fast casual restaurant in Tempe near the ASU stadiums where you order at a kiosk and they call your number when your food is ready. The burgers at The Melt are great. The original chicken sandwich I got this time was over salted and was very dry and rubbery. Next time I'll just get a burger. But The Melt is in a great up and coming area and will do well.

    Decided to try this new (to Arizona) place on a whim. So glad we did! There were several locations in California, and the reviews are great. And who doesn't live delicious, melty cheese! The menu has lots of cheesey things--burgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, Mac and cheese, chicken sandwiches, fries, shakes, and, of course, tomato soup to go with the grilled cheese. You order at the counter and are given a pager to let you know when you're order is ready. The gentleman (Nicholas, I think) at the counter was so friendly and helpfull. The dining room is pleasant, with exposed brick and both regular and high top tables. We ordered *Two Melt Burgers. You can dress it as you like--add lettuce, tomatoes, onion, jalapenos, and sauce. *Sicilian Chicken Sandwich--grilled chipped chicken, provelone, fontina, and grilled mushrooms on spicy garlic bread *Queso de Mayo--avocado, fresh jalapenos, smoked bacon, and pepper jack cheese on grilled artisan French bread *Garlic Parmesan Fries Everything was sooo good and so cheesy. The price wasn't bad, either. This could definitely become a regular thing for us!

    Top notch burgers. Very delicious! Only gripe is the uncomfortable metal chairs. Would put their original burger up against any other!

    A little pricey but well worth it it. I had the BBQ bacon melt burger and that was the best hamburger I've ever had

    Easy peasy 5 stars…read more Tempe Eats has a cool concept, there are several smaller restaurants that are setup in a food court deal, you use the QR Code to get your food. They have alcohol which seems to be sold by a different company-- Anyways chik pop is just amazing. I got the OG Sando spicy which was a perfectly fried chicken thigh in a sandwich-- they add an extra piece of chicken with it so just on portion size this place is a winner. The heat was solid and the chicken was juicy check my pic. Staff was super friendly and the Tempe Eats has someone checking on you as well. The sandwiches come with a purple Italian style dressing ( not sure what is was) that you may find off-putting so if you are sensitive to that stuff get the sauce on the side. I didn't mind it all. Sandwich comes with fries-- the place has water pitchers with lemons in it, get some water. You need to try this place! Can't wait to go back.

I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich, and the portion was huge the chicken was spilling out of the bread! I was actually the only one at the table who finished the whole thing (I was hungry!). We came here for my brother's birthday and our server did a great job making him feel special. They offered him a birthday shot, but since he doesn't drink, they brought us churros for the table instead which was sweet of them. One thing to note* I wasn't expecting it to be as spicy as it was. Our server did give me a heads up but I personally loved the heat. If you're not into spicy food though, it might be a bit much.
