Good food at a fair price, excellent drinks and all tat jazz... but the staff are the ones that really make this place special, theyre a close knit crown with fun on their minds, and they'll sing, dance, flirt, and joke their way into your experience, theyre unforgettable and lots of fun!
Oh God I love Melrose! Not only is it always fun and exciting at night (tends to attract the most beatuiful men and women in the city without turning into a sleazy bar) but my favorite part is the Sunday morning Brunch; with freash friut, omlettes made to order, 3 differend kinds of crepes and a chocolate fountain (my favorite part!). You can choose to sit on the patio among the hanging plants and water-wall or inside close to the towering 12-foot Buddha statue. needless to say the atmosphere is amazing and if possible the food is even better
This is where my boyfriend and I go; its "our place" and it has the best and cleanest bathrooms in the city! The food is fast, hot, and although the portions on the appies arent huge, the meals are, i recommend the JD burger, and the Spicy chicken (I'm addicted!) the drinks are fancy but not unaffordable and the staff is familiar and humorous, something i look for in my server!
This is my favorite restaurant in the city. On 17 Ave it is perfect to sit on the patio with the sun setting watching the world go by. The knowlegeable staff can actually pronounce the italian dishes on the menu, as opposed ot many foreign food establishment where they BUTCHER the language. The food comes in large potions and is always hot, freash and delicious. HIGHLY RECOMMEDED
Smugglers is second to none when it comes to brunch; for those who dont eat a lot of breakfast food, they also offer ribs and lasagna (among other dinner food) at their Sunday morning brunch.I take all of my out of town visitors there and for 15 bucks you can sit and stuff your face from 9 till 2. courteous staff and a unique ambiance (dimmed lights and throne-like chairs) it offers a lot to those in need of a hangover fix or breakfast with the family after church
