One thing about me, is I love a good diner. I stumbled upon Mel's Diner during my visit to Roseville. I knew I had found something special. The atmosphere of the diner was welcoming. The menu boasted an array of delectable dishes. The excellent food was complemented by the value for money, making every bite not just delicious but also economical.

I visit here quite a bit because my nieces love this restaurant. I like the 50s kind of theme with the jukeboxes at every table and the staff seem to like to work there. It has a couple of TVs set to sports so that's kind of nice as well. I like some of the food more than others, for instance I enjoy their breakfast item i was not a fan of the bbq chicken melburger and garlic fries but i liked the Philly cheesesteak with curly fries and their breakfast foods. Also the portions are pretty huge so bring your appetite. They were nice enough to give my niece a root beer float for her bday and they have really good desserts (especially their milkshakes and their lemon meringue pie looks amazing). Overall it's a pretty solid restaurant that has been in the community for many years as it is frequented by locals. It's definitely worth a visit if you're considering it.

So my morning consisted of not being able to sleep last night so I ended up going here for breakfast! BEST DECISION EVER. I walked in and of course it's your early 80s(?) diner but it felt welcoming! The lovely young miss who sat me was quick and efficient asking what I wanted to drink. I got a black coffee obviously! It was regular restaurant coffee, so average. Another kind miss came and asked if I was ready to order and I had forgotten what my order was, but she knew just by me saying "the one with everything." It was the Wolfman Jack btw. She went to place my order, and I had gotten asked if I needed a coffee refill almost immediately after finishing my first cup! The one who served my food was a gentleman who had asked me if it was my day off earlier. He accidentally placed my plate too hard down on my table and knocked the syrup into my eggs, and I told him it was okie, but he insisted on bringing me a new plate! VERY KIND! Afterward he brought a new plate and once again filled up my coffee! Overall the staff was great and efficient! The place of course was extremely busy but vibes were there! 9/10 would recommend!! Also I forgot to take a picture so here's what the food looked like with the house potatoes!

Food - As with most Mel's very good. Typical 1950's Diner ambiance. Great staff, all of them. And breakfast came out fast. We had Breakfast. I had the Wolfman Jack meal, eggs, ham, suasage patty (saved for take home for a next day bagel egg sausage at home) bacon and potatoes. As well as 2 pancakes. She had a great California omelet.
