Melt is one of those restaurants that put Cleveland on the culinary hit list. I've met people from all over who ask, "You're from Cleveland? Have you been to Melt?" For that, I want to give Melt and Matt Fish 5 stars!
WHY I HAD TO KNOCKOFF TWO STARS:
1) Long waits = More $$$ - An hour long wait for a grilled cheese sandwich?! You are bound to try a couple beers and these ain't no $2 Black Labels. A couple craft beers and microbrews add up.
2) While I find the monthly sandwich specials fun and inventive they tend to be a bit outrageous. I'd take tasty over crazy any day.
3) The recovery time! You just ate two pounds of delicious melted cheese wedged between butter soaked bread, you will be in a food coma for at least an hour.
With that being said, maybe my nostalgia for my local grilled cheese haunt has worn off but, that doesn't mean I don't recommend checking this place out!
