The Melt

My visit to 'The Melt' was an unexpected gem on my way to a conference, and it turned out to be a culinary journey I won't soon forget. The restaurant's ambiance was inviting, and I found myself surrounded by a plethora of alluring options on the menu. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, I turned to the waiter for guidance, and I must say, it was one of the best decisions of the day. With a warm smile, the waiter suggested the Sicilian chicken melt burger, assuring me it was a standout choice. Trusting their recommendation, I dove in, and the burst of flavors was nothing short of mind-blowing. The succulent chicken paired with the perfect blend of Sicilian-inspired ingredients created a culinary masterpiece that left my taste buds dancing. What truly elevated the experience was the impeccable service. The waiter not only guided me to a delightful meal but also exhibited a level of politeness and helpfulness that is often hard to come by. It was evident that they took pride in ensuring patrons had a memorable dining experience. As I savor the memory of that delicious meal, I find myself eagerly anticipating a return visit. The thought of sharing this culinary adventure with my husband before departing from San Francisco adds an extra layer of excitement. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone in search of a truly delightful dining experience.

It's a burger, cheese is melted. If it is late and you have a craving can't go wrong. It has service issues though since they get super busy at night and you compete with ubereats door dash orders, and they use a pager system but don't refill the pagers so you can't finish ordering from the touch screen and they stress out when people are trying to order at the counter and there's not much waiting area so the pickup area is a squeeze and they keep shouting at people to move around to let others order but honestly those people getting shouted at didn't have much options. Anyway, it's a decent burger, convenient when it's late and you're hungry.

When I first walked into The Melt, the vibes were super cool, very clean, and the atmosphere was chill. Ordered from the kiosk, and there were plenty of options even if you didn't want just a burger (I got one, lol). I ended up ordering the cheeseburger, the chicken sandwich, and the best garlic parm fries 🍟 I've ever had. Every bite of the fries I could taste the garlic, and they were seasoned to perfection, plus they were super hot, so I know they were fresh! I took my food back to my hotel and got my munch on. The burger was delicious, and the chicken sandwich was scrumptious as well. Both were at least a 1/4 lb, so it was plenty to eat. Oh yeah, the service was nice. The server called my name, and I asked for ketchup, and he laughed and said we got you covered homie lol. But a great experience!

It’s named Melt for a reason! 😂 We ordered the original 3 cheese grilled cheese sandwich- super melty super cheesy. Great buttery flavor on the outside and grilled beautifully crisp. Also enjoyed the Melty Mac - a super creamy Mac n cheese with a beautiful bred crumb and cheese bake. Won’t lie- it’s a lot of cheese which may give you an upset tummy 😂

When we walked in we were greeted with a big "Welcome!" from across the restaurant. The guy manning the register and taking orders was awesome. It was our first time in and I asked what his favorite dishes are. He gave excellent recommendations and why. We took him up on his favorites and were not disappointed! The restaurant was clean, as were the restrooms. The food was fantastic! Will definitely be back!

I can tell you that the staff at melt are rude and the place is dirty and that still isn't a reason to stay away. This place is far from rude and dirty and the food is just one of the reasons to go, but it is the main-main!  Staff is hella cool and the place is clean, and inside there is always a party at each location, but the food goes haaaaaaard! I recommend the Swiss & Shroom or their Meltburger. Those are my two faves. I also recommend their parm fries, but you can try the fancy ones because they are good too. I just couldn't eat them with a burger because they are like a meal, especially if you get a mac on the side! I highly recommend their Pattymelt and their Steak and Cheese. I love those also but they are way more filling. Go there when you are hungry and be ready to eat. This place rocks. Shakes are delish but I get one to go, as dessert. Funny, but I didn't even know they sold salads until the other day. They look good but I don't think I care. This place isn't where I go to be a good boy.

The beef patties were extremely JUICY. The size was good. Price is reasonable. It was really good and everything was seasoned well. The only thing I would recommend is to not get the jalapeños. It kind of ruins the general taste of the burger and all you feel is the spice. The fries were not bad but they weren’t super great. The drinks were very interesting!
