What a cool place! Servers are talented singers. Missed a birthday tribute - wish I would have filmed that - probably the best happy birthday shout out I've ever heard. Food was very good and the atmosphere in this place is terrific - everyone is all smiles.

Great place to eat. It was a little hidden, we passed it up once when looking for it. Hard to find a parking spot but it was worth it. We had a party of 14 and were seated in less than 5 mins. All the servers rotating singing every so often. It’s a pretty neat experience!

This time it was the foot long hot dog with everything on it! Yummy! The service was excellent and as always the artists were great. I don't know how they do it, singing and serving at the same time. Great place we stop at every time we visit!

The singing servers were the best part of this diner. They sang oldies, Disney songs, and current songs. The food was good/above average. I tried the Hawaiian chicken sandwich that my server had recommended, my husband had a cheeseburger, my oldest daughter had spaghetti and my youngest kids had the corn dogs. Then I ordered a cookies n cream malt shake and it was amazing! We will definitely be back!

Oh my gosh this place is amazing!! Perfect for family fun and a great dinner! To break it down, first the service was amazing and our waitress was so sweet and funny! And then the food arrived so quick (or I was so entertained I didn’t even notice!) and it was so amazing!! Best burger I’ve had in years! And the servers all had amazing voice and sung for us!! The dessert is also amazing! Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a amazing time and great food!

The food and atmosphere/servers were great. We were uncomfortable with the lack of COVOD safe practices (all tables full, no social distancing, condiments on table, etc. We won't go back until after COVID, but we would go back.

Mel's hard luck was our favorite place to eat while on vacation in Branson. They rotate and sing all while you eat. It is truly amazing. Kelly was just as I seen her years ago. Beautiful smile, beautiful soul and the same beautiful dimples that compliments her beautiful voice as she sings. Truly breath taking! Wendy showed up and added a truly unique addition to the mix. Her voice was so beautiful and her changeover in her notes were smooth and attractive. They truly do have talent showcased right there as you eat. The food was good diner style with options from burgers to party melts to salads and much more. Their desserts will knock your socks off.
