The Original Mel's - Livermore

Food was very good. Crispy, perfectly grilled toast for club sandwich. Tomatoes and lettuce were fresh. Turkey was carved and roasted. Crispy chicken sandwich was also very good. And of course they’re signature grilled cheese on thick texas-style toast was great. Cherry Coke was made fresh with maraschino cherry juice and three cherries. Place was clean and staff was friendly.

Good food, thick burgers, classic decor.. service a bit slow/emotionally disconnected.

Great food and service. Love the menu because it is easy to get back to the basics. There are no new N Fruity stuff. Great atmosphere very large or small table. Spacious restaurant, I don't get a cramped feeling like other places. I fried the chicken oaks. My wife has breakfast Burrito.

Great service! Especially with two small children, the pancake breakfast was sweet and the server was ingenious to share the children of strawberry shake (which they blown up) without having to ask a second cup. The BLT with avocado was delicious. Server to point with my refills.

I mean, living in the eastern bay, and an ex-crease, his Mel is every day. My balls Benedict tasted great. My ash-browns were beautiful and crispy, but they hardly gave me anything. Left hungry. The food is good, but the portions are meager. Next time I order 2 breakfast, no joke.
