Tonite was my first visit to Melrose. Belong to a Meetup group called "Third Tuesday", and our meeting this month was held in the lower level room.
Regular Monday food special was the Steak Sandwhich. I ordered a "pink, not bloody" steak & crispy fries - and that's exactly what I got. For $7, the steak tasted great and I couldn't finish the healthy portion of fries.
Great for groups looking for a room to host a presentation. The room on the lower level holds 90 people comfortably. The panel of 4 speakers were broadcast of television screens throughout the room, and using a mic it seemed like the whole room could hear the conversation. For the lower level of a bar/restaurant this is awesome & ratther difficult to find.
*Note - the room holds more than 90 people, but there are pillars in the room which do block views for larger groups.
The staff was incredible. There were 90 people, and no one waited for food or drinks, and a server was always nearby to take orders. There was also a staff member dealing with sound and video, and again needs were always addressed immediately. Really impressed with the service.
Our next "Third Tuesday" meeting will be on Jan.19th and we will be returning to this space - I look forward to it.
