“My wife and I had the filet in the Melrose, so nice to be able to make a reservation, have a fantastic meal steak and salad. Our meals were cooked as we asked and had great flavor. Best part was our service, so great to be able to sit have some drinks and not be rushed out the door. Fabulous dinner Thank you”

“My husband and I received a gift card as a wedding present for the Melrose Grill. It took us a whole year but we finally went for our 1st wedding anniversary. It was unbelievably great! From the warm bread, salad with the balsalmic vinegrette that is perfectly dressed, Ribeye cooked expertly, the sweet Moscato wine and the Bourbon Pecan Creme Brulee (the best Cream Brulee I've ever had), everything was served with great attention to detail and friendless. Customer service was exceptional. We will definetely be back!”

Our History

Established in 1901

The building in which the Melrose Grill resides was established in 1901 and has served as a tavern since the days of the horse and buggy. It also operated as a pool hall, soda shop and card room during prohibition. The current owners have honored the building's historic roots keeping the recently restored, original mirror-backed bar with its rich, dark woods. The walls showcase vintage photos that highlight the transitions this grand building has gone through. With wainscoting on the walls, low-slung lamps and high ceilings the space feels as open as the West was when the Melrose Building was built.
