My daughter had a wedding on February 10th with a buffet lunch at Melinda’s. The food was perfection! All the guests were raving over it! The service was excellent! They went above and beyond! A special thanks to Shawn and Andy for making sure all was right and our needs were met. I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding. The ambiance was amazing!

We made a reservation for my aunt’s birthday which the website allowed; however, we showed up and they were closed. When asked next door at their sister restaurant, they said they haven’t been open for the public for months. It’s strictly a private event space with an occasional wine dinner m.

When my brother and sister-in-law visit we try to have a nice meal out. This was our second time here. The first time was for lunch soon after they opened. The food was a little expensive for lunch but was good enough to warrant a second try. This time was for dinner and we were lucky enough to be seated outside.The service was good and the food was delicious. While not cheap, we will definitely return.

Red Snapper, Squash medley, Broccolini Almondine, Brussel Sprouts, and Mushroom Risotta all got 5 stars at our table of 4! Excellent service, quaint atmosphere. Will be back!

Couldn’t imagine a worse experience. We sat down for our reservation for brunch and a server didn’t greet us for one hour. We had to get drinks from the bar. All of our food was cold. The grits were thinner than water. The server was rude and uncaring. Meanwhile, there seems to be plenty of staff on their phones sitting at the bar. We never got any sauces or sides that we asked for. This place should be ashamed. Please do not visit this money laundering front.

I've never been disappointed, great service and excellent food!!! Best food I've had in Rome GA.

The Shrimp and Grits was absolutely amazing. But it was hidden behind extremely poor customer service. We were waiting 20 minutes after being seated before anyone came to our table with water. We ended up ordering as soon as he came by due to the wait. It then took 30 minutes for us to get our food and it was brought out by a different server who seemed like she hated her job. After we got our food, another 20 minutes went by and no one else came by the table. I finally had to stop someone for me to get a Togo box and the check. I could understand this if it was busy, but there were several empty tables. Very disappointed in the service.

Excellent 2 for 1 Bloody Mary's. Of course, since I moved from WI, I am used to a beer chaser. Just ordered a beer alongside - works for me! I had eggs Benedict, Wonderful ?
This was a pretty awesome place. I wont be in Rome again as I no longer have family in the area, but when it went bistro to the current location I was very pleased the several times I went.

We had a lovely experience at Melinda's. I had the salmon with a side of mushroom risotto and Brussel sprouts. It was all cooked and flavored perfectly. I'm not sure why they don't specify on the menu that the salmon is wildcaught but it is! Which is an important factor for me! Farm raised - no thank you. Service was top notch as well. Atmosphere was relaxing - would maybe suggest a different music genre (we heard Justin Timberlakr, Lady Ga Ga, etc.) Maybe something a little more relaxing.

My party of 7 were all very surprised that this restaurant was not even half full. The food was very good and the service was above average. Will definitely be back!

Food was very good. Very nice staff. I hope the people of Rome will support this restaurant so they can stick around.
