    Perfect dining experience. We were warmly greeted. Since it was our first time dining there our server thoroughly explained the menu, the specials and knew the ingredients in relation to possible food allergens. The fish was fresh and cooked to perfection.

    The restaurant is set in a very nice quaint neighborhood. It has a family own atmosphere and they go out of their way to make sure you are pleased with the food and the surface. Great place.

    We’ve eaten at Mele many times. Yesterday’s meal with 6 of us was excellent. All the seafood dishes were perfectly cooked and tasty. The bread is always amazing

    We discovered this little gem - nestled between Rosslyn and Courthouse - years ago. Mele Bistro (formerly Village Bistro) remains one of our go-to destinations when we are introducing friends to a new restaurant. The staff is very friendly, the menu is extensive and the setting is casual - all desirable features. Our party shared the warm Bistro calamari appetizer; we all ordered a different fish entree from the seafood choices; and we enjoyed the creme brulee, lemon tart and salted caramel gelato for dessert While seafood is a highlight of the menu, don't overlook the steak options or the Italian entree options. The menu offers dishes that will please every palate.

    We were about 6-7 team of people and the waiter made racist comments. This created an embarrassing situation for a team of professionals. I’d never go back to this place just because of the waiter’s behavior. I’ll post his name and what he said ‘publicly’ shortly. This is not a recommended place for professionals or team parties.

    I like my salmon medium raw. They got it to me the way I like it. Most restaurants bring it to me well done no matter my insistence and the waiter assuring me that I'l get it medium raw. Our meals were great.

    Food was great. Clearly so much thought into not only how they cook, but where they source their meat, seafood and chicken. Pasta was amazing. But what makes this such a wonderful experience was Frank and his staff. Friendly, knowledgable, hard-working, and really make you feel like a part of their extended family. Will be back often!
