Christmas lights/Decor was cute, service was friendly and attentive. Food was very tasty, but some dishes were very small for the cost (ex. beet salad, creme brule).

After making a reservation weeks ahead, we placed food orders and did not receive anything for over 45 minutes. We constantly had to track down someone just for water. We had another reservation two hours after, which should have been more than enough time to have dinner. We were scolded by the manager who said it was our fault for not telling the server we had plans 2 hours from our reservation, which is ridiculous. We were told the wait was our fault because we sat next to another reservation of people we knew who also placed orders at the same time. The manager spoke to me condescendingly, calling me “hun” while telling us the wait time was our fault. Do not recommend this restaurant. Poor wait times, extremely poor management and client service.

I had the opportunity to visit Melody's for their holiday pop-up pre-opening and everything was fantastic! Service, food, ambiance were all a 10/10.

What a fun time during the Drag Brunch at the Melody Bar. Miss Moco is outstanding fun. She was sure to interact with every table evenbefore she started her show and she remembered names and gave shout-outs to the "celebrations" in the room. Her humour kept things light and her performance was full of life and energy - not to mention she looked incredible! The service and food were great, as were the drinks... be sure to get the mimosa package!
