| - I returned to Get Melted today for takeout. A friend told me that they had a Groupon, and I became curious about whether things had changed since I was last there. The Groupon is $12 for $20 worth of food. I decided to order two sandwiches for my friend and I to share, and asked for it to go. What I ordered was:
For me: La Poire - $8.75 made with Brie, Mozzarella, Pear, Almond, Arugula, Dijon, Marble Rye
For my friend: Classic Melt - $5.75 made with Cheddar, Mozzarella, Mayo, White. My friend wanted to add avocado and bacon, but avocado was not available today. My friend also originally wanted the Toad in the Hole - $5.00 made with a Fried Egg, Cheddar, White. But that was also not available. So to customize it we paid $1.50 for bacon, and 0.75 for an egg...I think! The menu and prices are different online - so we likely paid more for the additions than the prices online.
My friend and I had seen photos of the food online, and I was eagerly waiting to bite into a crunchy pickle and munch on chips as well. About 15 minutes after ordering I got the food in a small bag and I went home. When I got home I opened the bag and we were incredibly disappointed. There were no pickles, and you got a small handful of chips that were seasoned - maybe with onion powder and mustard? It was hard to decipher the flavor. What happened to sea salt chips that would please more palettes? Why complicate it with odd seasoning?
In terms of the sandwiches. Well, they were just that - sandwiches. Not grilled cheeses. The bread was toasted not grilled, and you could not taste any butter. In fact, the bread was dry! My sandwich was actually decent in flavor, but it was not a grilled cheese. And for $10 it was not good enough to buy again. My friend's sandwich was mediocre at best. It was small, with dry bread and a soggy center. In fact, this is the kind of sandwich I make for myself when I am rushing to work in the morning. Takes no time to make and the ingredients are basic.
Oh, and I also got a pop for $2. The grand total for our meal was $21.10.
Needless to say, I know why they have a Groupon out.
Hmmmm curious, do the people that get take out get less food because....well, why?! If you are gotta offer less for takeout, then there should be a takeout menu with lower prices!
Skip it!
P.S:
*Few computer plugs so hard to relax and work while you eat
**They are open from 11AM to 5PM and closed Sundays. So if you wanna grab a sandwich after work, you are out of luck!
**Prices too expensive--no value for money
