We’ve been to Melange many times. Today was exceptionally good! Sometimes you just want a burger for breakfast and today was that day! Our burgers were perfectly (rare) cooked and the French fries are the best. Our server was sweet and attentive. The patio was so peaceful—-birds chirping, geese flying, hummingbirds humming, and the sounds of Lake La Quinta’s fountain…just perfect. Great morning!

It’s been a while since we’ve been back and we really missed the ambiance sitting by the water. We were treated like we were the only ones there! It was a lovely evening, wonderful service, great food and the most personable servers. It was our anniversary and to our surprise we were treated to a bottle of champagne! How thoughtful and much appreciated! Where else does this happen?! It was a perfect evening!

The food is amazing. Service was excellent. Unfortunately it was extremely windy so we couldn’t be outside. Would love to try again and be outside.

We were seated at a table with a wrinkled white table cloth as the greeter wiped bugs or dust (not sure) off the table. AC was freezing. No lights were on in the restaurant. Server was kind and attentive. Food was ok. Views are pretty.

While booking my reservation, left a note stating we were celebrating a birthday. To please bring out a slice of cheese cake with a candle. I felt like it took away from the experience.
