User Reviews

Melisse was wonderful  

We had a lovely experience, The food was Delicious. If you are going to have the Chef's taster... Have a big appetite.

 

So I ate at Melisse about, 2 months ago and it was fantastic! On Wednesday there is a deal going on on Preferdine.com ($50 for $100 at Melisse) that I’m really excited for – I love a good deal at a restaurant that I had a good experience with.

Great French Cuisine  

Ordered the tasting menu and there's plenty of option for our courses. Chef gave us a small starter excluded from the menu and it was very delicious. Onion soup lover should order their "sweet onion-parmesan soup", it was gorgeous! Also the foie gras was delicious, too!! I would go back to Melisse again in the future!
