The Meltdown is a ghost kitchen that's located inside Denny's - and for being a virtual kitchen, they're actually pretty good.
The packaging doesn't say Denny's or The Meltdown, but is a cute retro style, like what you'd see in a bowling alley, kind of.
I tried the Giddy Up Melt, which came on toasted buttery bread and was filled with burnt ends. The burnt ends had a good flavor but were a little too big for being served in a sandwich style (being hard to eat in bites, like how you'd eat a sandwich).
My melt came with fries, and they were sort of steak fry style, but "crimped" or pleated in the middle which I had never seen before on fries. But they had a good flavor as delivery fries go, not arriving soggy or dry.
I also got a side of onion rings, just to try them. I'm not even usually an onion ring fan usually, but just had an itch for them for some reason.
The batter on these were actually pretty tasty, and the onion inside kind of just melted into the batter vs being all oniony in texture, which is my normal complaint about onion rings. So I would recommend trying these if you're an onion hater, but sometimes do like onion rings if they're prepared the right way.
Overall, it's definitely ghost kitchen quality, but it's a slight cut above a lot of the other virtual kitchens I've tried over the years. read more
