    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!

Delicious/ cooked to perfection. Presentation, the best. Wonderful appetizers and bread. Our first visit. Made reservations based on excellent reviews. The reviews, believe them.

    Outside dining can be very noisy and a bit cramped. But the food is excellent. The Portobello salad with palm heart, sun dried tomatoes, and artichokes was excellent--wish I had the recipe. The owner is very personable and chatty and went to each outside table to talk, emphasizing the home grown food and fish from Hawaii.

    Exceptional! The service was by far the best part of our experience, and I would highly recommend Mele to anyone. The pasta dishes were flavorful but not too rich. Awesome wine selection, and very fairly priced
