Very poor service. It usually takes a while to get food, which is pretty good, but on my last and final visit the hostess, manager and waitress were rude.
We waited 50-60 min for food and then had to ask repeatedly for drinks. The waitress also forgot to put in the kids order.
The management at Sweet Mel's is a little stuck on themselves. I just do not get it. They really have reason to think they are better than the patron.
There are plenty of good restaurants in River. Try Wine Bar or Salmon Daves.
