I honestly can't believe some of the comments in here.
You guys, go to the Westside Market, buy some bread from Mediterra and some cheese from anywhere, take last night's leftovers, butter one side of two pieces of bread, grill in a pan over medium-low heat.
There, you probably just made a sandwich that's better than anything from Melt.
The best grilled cheese ever? The best sandwich ever? Are you kidding?
How this place is our landmark absolutely baffles me. I just... undercooked fries, every. single. time? Lifeless vinegar slaw? Those fries are awful, they don't even bother to blanch them beforehand cause they're too busy making money on these sandwiches.
I really don't get it. I assure you, with less than one day's practice and one trip to a decent grocery store you can EASILY make a sandwich that tastes WAY better than any of these.
I've heard their salads are good but who goes to a famous sandwich restaurant for a salad?
One extra star because they have a pretty decent bar and strong bartenders.
