Awesome cake, great poutine, decent grilled cheese, I think I’d like some of the other options more than the one I chose. My server was eh… the owner was friendly and so was the hostess. Nice place, I’ll definitely be back to try more grilled cheese options and different cake flavors! Prices are a bit high

Wanted to try something new, and local. I usually would just be cautious and cook myself. I mean who has money to blow now prices for food have skyrocketed? Once in while I venture out when im just to exausted after working 12 plus hours and traving for 3. This place has some hype in my family. I wanted to form my own opinion on a place. Today I was absolutely surprised. Staff was pleasant and attentive. Happened to hit the night that had live music. I think it was TJ Powers, but not sure. He took requests, and engaged the room with classic rock. The music was great treat. I sat in high top near bar. I treated my self to vodka berry drink that was amazing. I went with a classic Philly. My partner had the Meltdown’s spin on the Ruben. Upcharged both meals to include fries with coleslaw. This is worth the 3 dollars extra. Both melts served with condiment that complemented the flavor of sandwich. The bread was prefectly toasted. The crunchie bread kept the soft moist meat, cheese middle from being nothing close to soggy. The cruch and rich middle was just about flawless until you diped in to the condiment. Now that mixture was devine. Coleslaw was prefect and not to wet or dry. Fries reminded me of cross between hand cut and ones I love to make for my family at home. It was so nice to have such a wonderful experience. As we left Diane made it a point to great us, and thank us. Who does this anymore? Seems Diane and her staff do. Absolutely will be making an effort to come the few blocks to Meltdown again. Thank you Diane for bring something postive to our city. This is a MUST try for anyone. The whole experience is work the money.

This place was absolutely delicious. We loved sitting out on the porch and really enjoyed the sandwiches we both got. The star of the show was definitely the garlic Parmesan fries! Some of the best fries we’ve ever had. The staff was also kind and attentive to us and our dog, giving her water and a special souvenir. We would come back anytime!

Very welcoming atmosphere from them moment you walk in! We sat outside on the patio & had a great dinner. If you love grilled cheese & want to kick it up a bit try the Meltdown! Also strongly recommend the Parmesan Fries!!

The grilled cheese is absolutely fantastic. I was looking for a different place which apparently closed and I found this place as a result. So glad I did. I just had a basic grilled cheese but it was awesome. There’s tons of different options so they should have something for everyone. Highly recommended.

My husband and I with 4 other friends ate at the Meltdown for the very first time. We all had the Shrimp Florentine with Grape Tomatoes, Fresh Spinach and Alfredo sauce. “Oh SO good”, was what each of us were saying as we were enjoying every bite. Our server was wonderful with a great sense of humor. The host welcomed us when we arrived and thanked us for coming when we left. We are already looking forward to coming back to try other dishes on the menu. Thank you for such a great meal and great experience.

Stopped in on a Monday after putting it off for too long. The staff made me feel welcome and made sure I left full. Feels like a home away from home with a great choice of drinks. The lobster sandwich was better than what I’ve had in Maine and the poutine was a great side addition. Ended my experience with a wonderful slice of cheesecake. It’s great to have a place like this so close to home.

We had another amazing meal tonight at the Meltdown. Hands down one of my favorite restaurants. The food always comes out the same, and is absolutely delicious. One of my favorite parts is the desserts, I love getting to try the new flavors. Every visit I have seen the owner greeting tables and ensuring the meal is satisfactory. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Thank you for the food, experience, and warm atmosphere. I look forward to my next meal with you.
