    Chicken with white rice and beans is $5.99
    Beverly J.

    Another delicious meal at Melao!! By joining their program linked to my cc I received $5 off for my birthday and am accumulating points towards other rewards. Highly recommend!!

    I have had food from all over the world and my mom is Costa Rican, so imagine my surprise when they advertise Mofongo. A delicious dish that I had never even heard of let alone tried. It was worth the wait and what a wait. About 25 minutes to place your order and then 45 minutes to get your order. I was so confused as to what is going on here. We're in a line to order food but there is a separate line for the baker items and after we order and are told to go sit, there is a third line: for the lunch buffet. They charge by the pound at the buffet. After 45 minutes, they called my name and I went up to get my wife's Mofongo and my breakfast special. My breakfast was so delicious. the bread was awesome, it tasted like Hawaiian bread. Eggs, ham all on top of plantains. For like $6. The coffee is NOT a drip but an expresso turned into an Americano. Place is huge, super busy and jumping. People were very happy to be here regardless of the waiting time.

    Pastelillo de pizza

    Been here a couple of times before for lunch and dinner and had a great mofongo last time I came. This time came in for breakfast with my family, it was pretty busy but the service was quick. I ordered the media noche sandwhich and thought it was ok. Also tried a couple of pastelillos, a pizza and chicken and were good. I did not like that the quesitos I had for dessert were cold and didn't taste fresh. Was a little disappointed for that but still recommend to try this spot if haven't been before.

    Tripleta
    Samantha R H.

    Typically the tripleta is something I order at every Puerto Rican sub establishment. I was excited knowing that this is not a chain and locally owned. We had to wait a bit for the order as well, so I figured it would be hot and/or fresh. We had ordered three subs, only one of them was hot. The meat in the tripleta was thick and a bit tough to chew through. I couldn't taste anything other than the pernil and tomato. The medianoche was the only hot sub where we could properly taste all the ingredients on. We ended up getting an Oreo cheesecake as well, but it tasted like something was off about the whipped cream. It was also freezing cold, so you had to almost let it melt in your mouth before you could properly taste it.

    I hadn't been to Melao in a long time so we stopped for breakfast after church. The restaurant is super outdated and definitely needs some upgrades but the food was good. It was pretty busy for such an early time but service was quick. We did experience some rudeness from a staff member named Ileana. She was also rude to her co-workers in front of other customers which we felt uncomfortable with and was highly disappointed on. Overall, the food was good and they have several breakfast and lunch options for everyone.

    Decent bakery the actual baked goods didn't taste too fresh. Price was higher than expected but the service was great

    Pastels
    Latoya J.

    Was a bad experience & Not a good representation for authentic Puerto Rican food. The wait for the food was terrible. Pasteles had very little meat and very bland. Shrimp was very salty the rice was over cooked and the beans was the only saving factor of the meal but after 4 bites that was enough.

    Haven't visited Melao in a long time and decided to go for breakfast. When we first arrived it wasn't too busy and shortly after got very busy. I like that you can order at the counter or at a kiosk. But the initial thought as you walk in is the old and outdated. Definitely needs some renovations to the location. As for staff the interaction with the lady at register taking orders was good but the lady at the pick up counter, Ileana, was very rude. She was yelling at everyone including customers. As for food it was good but I've had better. The major disappointment was I ordered a quesito and it was cold as if they just took it out of the refrigerator so it was horrible. I should've gone back to return it but it was busy so just took it home and warmed it up. Also the toast with butter barely had any butter making super dry and hard to eat. Definitely want a good experience and don't see myself going back.

    I love everything on the food and dessert menu. There's always a small wait time since it is a popular spot but service is pretty quick for all orders made to eat. Highly recommend!

    Pineapple yellow cake very good
    Steven C.

    We had a great Cuban sandwich and a pineapple yellow cake for desert. Both were excellent. The Cuban has to be one of the best in town.

    Dona y quesito
    Reixa C.

    Great service and even better food! This bakery made me feel like I was back in Puerto Rico. From the friendly service to the pastries, the coffee and the sandwiches, Melao is where you need to go. We ordered sandwiches and coffee and a pastry. The sandwiches are Huge!!! I had my favorite donut. It's a sugar donut I used to have as a kid. My husband had the quesito pastry. Would definitely go back for the pastrami sandwich.

    Wow! This place has some amazing dishes mostly Puerto Richowever we went to check them for the sandwiches which is hard because all look delicious, we went for the tripletongo wrap a slow cooked pork,ham, beefsteak swiss cheese pressed sandwich which includes lettuce, tomatoes mofongo and mayoketchup, i could not say enough its a must have. Most of the dishes all look delicious including their prepared meals which you can get a take home full meal. Busiest times seem to after 12noon, but the service was quick. We each had also a shake of passion fruit which was amazing, but next time I would like to try their nutella coffee sounds like heaven. Breakfast is also served in addition to lunch both range in prices between 8.99 to 22.00 with 22.00 being a full meal. The place is pretty big for seating enough people without feeling overwhelmed. If ever in the Orlando area highly recommend going to the Orlando location, but they also have one in Kissimmee.

    Sandwiches are pricey and they are actually small. It does take a while to get your order too. Try FL bakery. They are better and way cheaper.

    See all

    Food is good! The service flow is a little wonky but people are still nice. The atmosphere is like any Latin cafeteria.
