Melini’s in Morehead is one of my favorites for a superb classic Italian meal. They are locally famous for their authentic Italian Calzones and I give any of those variations a solid 8.9/10 (a very high score for those of you that follow my reviews) The pizza: I recently ordered a pepperoni and cheese because they surprisingly had not heard of a classic margarita pizza before, which is fine and she even tried to accommodate by adding some fresh basil (not understanding it’s cooked on the pizza, not as a garnish, lol) which I promptly removed, but she was very sweet. The staff are always friendly and accurate. As for the crust, it’s a bit too dense and thick to be an Italian style pizza. There were no crust bubbles and there was no crunch. I was disappointed overall. The red sauce is fantastic, and they have some of the best marinara for the calzones, too. The cheese blend they use is very good and they use the proper amount. Also, while flavorful I have not found it to be greasy. With a change in the crust recipe they could easily put all other pizza places out of business. It “could” be that good. Overall current pizza score: 5.3/10

Great bread. Antipasto salad great. Calzone huge and good.

Won't eat there again, they automatically charge 20% tip on the bill, I got 1 piece baked lasagna and cheese sticks and a pop it was 29.00.
