Beautiful setting/ambience. Robert, our server was outstanding. Food was delicious. Host/greeting upon entering was rude and unsettling. Unfortunate to have the first impression be so disheartening. Thank you, Robert and chef for the wonderful recovery.

Sat outside by the lake. Lots of heaters to chase away the chill. Nicely curated set of menu items. Friendly service that focused on the patron.

Chef forgot to put the bacon jam on our sliders. Service got very busy so took a long time to pay our bill. Very nice place. They need more help.

Delightful time. Dined inside because of chilly breeze. All 6 of us enjoyed the setting, food, and wait staff. Not elegant but shouldn’t be missed.

The service was lacking , May have been short on staff. My wedge salad was warm and tasteless, the mushroom soup was very good. My grandson had the ribeye and was very disappointed. Others had scallops and shrimp and enjoyed their dishes . I was really looking forward to the dining experience at Melange but it was a big disappointment. I won’t be going back.
