    Their goal is to provide gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches and as many beers as possible in a cool and comfortable environment. They have been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives & Man v. Food.

    Based off other recommendations I tried "The Dude Abides" awesome sandwich with huge meatballs. Only problem is how difficult it is to pick up and eat! Next time I think I'll try the God Father.

    Shockingly vegetarian and vegan friendly. They even have a custom vegetarian/vegan menu but it’s not necessary as the standard menu is easy to navigate and well labeled. 🙏🏻

    One of the most famous restaurants in the city. It’s the place to be if you love cheese. You can get something as simple as the Kindergarten grilled cheese to the Mighty Macaroni sandwich.

    Big popper is super hot! The jalapeños are fresh and not seeded. Split a sandwich and drink an extra beer :)

    Be adventurous. There are 35 sandwiches and a million different ways to get them. You can add or delete anything to/from any sandwich. Get a beer to go with it, a good beer, there are over 100.

    The grilled cheese sandwiches are awesome!! They're enormous so I recommend getting the 1/2 sandwich size.

    Amazingly delicious food. Not exactly expensive, but not too cheap either. The Dude Abides sandwich is amazing. But that's just like..my opinion man.

    Yum yum and yum. I had the twelve mile limit martini. Wow, we stayed like an hour and a half to let it wear off. The sandwich was enough for two. Now we know. Saw melt on diners, drive ins and dives.

    On tap is Melt's own version of a light lager. Like a borderline Pilsner & North American adjunct.

    My new favorite sandwich is the chorizo and potato! But the grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich is so hard to pass up, just get both.

    Crazy big portions great tasting food but wish the fries would have come out a bit more crispy. They got soggy real fast!

    The food just is so.I wouldn't be apt to spend the money on it again. The service was also so so for the type of food we got. We were put in a separate room because we were a large family with kids.
