Mel's Way Bistro exceeded all expectations! We recently hosted our Garcia Theatre Company Banquet there, and the entire experience was outstanding. The atmosphere was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make our event special. They helped bring our Goth Formal theme to life with amazing attention to detail, creating a memorable evening for our students, families, and graduating seniors. From the planning process to the event itself, everything was handled with professionalism, care, and hospitality. Whether you're looking for a great meal, live entertainment, themed events, or a venue for a special celebration, I highly recommend Mel's Way Bistro. Thank you for helping create such a wonderful and unforgettable night for our theatre family! read more

Soup of the day....seafood chowder....was actually, tuna fish and or salmon chowder....just awful...main dish supposedly haddock....tasted like some kind of "fake fish"......wife ordered duck....very,very dry! They have entertainment, that people seemed to enjoy! (that is the reason for the second star). Cannot recommend!! Beware......Gratuity, is added on to your bill, but an additional bill, has a blank space for Tip Amt.!! read more

I came back to Mel's for a Sunday morning brunch with 200 others. There was a lot of free parking spaces in front. The event space was nicely decorated and the restrooms were stocked. Coffee & tea service was efficient. The bruschetta on the table was delicious. There was a bread station with croissants, bagels, muffins, and danish. The buffet lines moved along nicely with two stations and lots of servers. The hot foods were hot and everything was done nicely. Drinks were replenished and tables were cleared quickly. There was a nice selection of hot and cold foods. Once the bread station got cleaned up cookies and desserts came out. Our three hour event was cool comfortable and nicely done. read more

Food is average but service is great. Great spot to stop for a quick drink. Entertainment is decent.

What a beautiful room! The table settings were white, gold and silver. Getting us ready for the spirit of the upcoming New Year. Went for a community event brunch. The buffet had fried shrimp, meatballs, waffles, eggs, bacon, sausage and ingredients for a healthy salad. There was a bagel bar with cream cheese, butter, lox w/capers and some mini danish and muffins. The wait staff made their rounds with coffee, tea and other beverages. Looking forward to attending other events there. read more

We were a group of 9 friends together for a reunion with dinner and dancing to the live band - the Paragons- showcasing their music of the 40's and 50's. This band has appeared here multiple times. This is the 3rd time for us. Amanda was our waitress who came by multiple times for drink and dinner orders. They had 3 different menus with daily specials and regular dinner menus. The food is just ok. I wouldn't write home about it but it's a fun night and a great place to gather to dance or people watch because the sequins and glitz is dazzling. There is a free parking lot. read more

My wife and I went to Mel's on a Tuesday night , with my mother, sister and her boyfriend. Tuesday , also happens to be Karaoke night. They have a special prime rib entree with 2 sides for $27. I asked for the end cut, which they had. It was very good. I , of course entertained the crowd with Sinatra and Dean Martin. Overall , everyone's dinner was good. Dinner, with a couple of cocktails , and beers was very reasonable. We enjoyed the Karaoke, It was fun. Mel's also has specials during the week, and live entertainment every Friday and Saturday night. So bring your dancing shoes and enjoy the live shows on the weekends. read more

Catering is their specialty. Valencia Lakes had its Halloween party at Mel's. The food was delicious (I had lamb chops). The band was outrageously excellent. Everyone had a blast. It has a cash bar. Parking is not a problem. read more

The food is generally good but I saw several attendees sending back their lamb chops for being severely undercooked. Great venue and ambience. Service is average. read more

We were there for their St. Patrick's Day celebration and it was fabulous! Top notch!

Very nice place. Good food. Great service. Will be back for sure. My friends and I enjoyed ourselves

Food was Meh, wait staff was sub par, and maybe, because it was so close to Christmas, there were several large, loud groups of diners, which created an uncomfortable dining experience read more

Great food and excellent music --dance floor is good. Service was excellent. Older crows

This place is amazing! The service was outstanding. I will definitely be coming back just to see Amanda and try the duck again! It was phenomenal.! read more

Love the place for casual lunch. Great portions and good prices. Chips and dip feature homemade chips. Luncheon salad plate with tuna, chicken, and potato salad scoops served with warm pita wedges is awesome. Prime Rib on Tuesday is excellent (tip: ask for a far back table to avoid the karaoke 'talent' singing). Had Thanksgiving dinner there and it was delicious. Wide variety on both lunch and dinner menus. Specials throughout the week. read more

Mel's Way Bistro - Thanksgiving dinner at Mel's. - American Near Me - Lake Worth, Florida

My small 55+ community had our annual women's club luncheon at Mel's for 48 women. Everything was perfect! It was a totally stress free event. The room was set up beautifully, food was delicious, service was perfect, and price was affordable! Melyn and Melanie were very easy to work with. As one of the guests remarked afterwards, "on a scale between 1-10 I'd give it a 12"! Thank you ladies for a very successful day! read more

I love this place! My Dad made reservations for us at Mel's Way Bistro for Thanksgiving. What a pleasant surprise! Food was fresh. Homemade. Tasted great. Not overly salted. Price was fair. Just nice, fresh excellent cooking. Wait staff was a little confused at first, but once they got going, everything started to run smooth. (Finding help is so hard these days) read more

We've been here for lunch numerous times. I can only say great things about Mel's. The sweet potato fries...oh my...they are scrumptious! Lunch specials are very reasonable. Pick two...half sandwich, salad or soup of day for only $7.00. I have been part of four parties in the banquet room. They do a great job. In the evenings, they have dinner specials and live music. The minimum price per person is $20. Run, don't walk to Mel's! read more

Very cool bistro. Great menu and great entertainment. Dancing definitely is a major factor in my decision. Wait staff are always at your side. read more

Absolutely love Mel's Way! Nothing negative to say about this hidden gem. We have been coming for months and every time we do it's a great experience! All of the staff are extremely pleasant but we always request Amanda. Love her quirky personality! Amanda continuously makes trips to the table to be sure we are doing good and don't need anything. The restaurant is always extremely clean and the food is delicious! Thank you for having such a great place for all of us to come and enjoy! read more

What a problematic place! Clearly there's no active management. We have gone twice with other couples and had the unfortunate experience of being served by Amanda both times. She has a sour expression, a worse attitude and provides horrific service. Example: we brought a couple who had never been there who were celebrating an anniversary. Thinking we wouldn't have terrible service twice, and having enjoyed the music we were happy to give the place a second chance. Instead she never served an appetizer that they ordered and skipped to serving the main course. When told she forgot the appetizer there was no apology. Similarly the gentleman asked about a particular cocktail and specifically told her "not too sweet". Guess what, that was a fruitless request so he had to order a second drink. No apologies nor any consideration. The only quality service came from the bus staff who said they always hear complaints about our server. My advice is to stay away. Even though the entertainment makes the place a good idea for an evening out. Not worth the aggravation. My friends went home hungry and surely won't return either. read more

Great food wonderful waitresses super lady's' owners the very best dinning the bar is very nice the bartenders are beautiful

Have been there several times. The menu has good variety. It is always has good food and medium priced. Service is good and drinks are excellent. They have entertainment nightly and on special days a fixed. The Owner's, Melanie and Milani are perfect hosts. read more

Food is good. Ambiance is good. Music a little too loud. Just blaring a bit. Service is poor. Waitress was Carol. Very hard to get her attention. For refills on drinks, etc. brought my salad without the shrimp and took a long time to finally bring it. Wanted to actually take my salad away from me back into the kitchen so she could put shrimp on it. I would have been there a half an hour with nothing to eat. Waitresses talking and not paying attention. I had to get up several times to ask various other waitresses for things because couldn't find ours. Needed more dressing which I was never able to get. Needs service training. To be attentive and efficient. read more

May 2022, came here Monday night for Happy Hour Dinner and Karaoke. The service was good, and prices even better since they have daily specials. Everyday they have a special event menu. Came here with friends and we all had a great time. I Ordered the Prime Rib (Med.Rare) Special of the week with two sides that tasted pretty good with a glass of House wine. The restaurant was not packed the day we went. There is plenty of outdoor parking available, so you don't have to worry about parking. All and all, I would consider coming back here with my group of friends in the future. read more

A group of neighbors and I go out every Tuesday and we go to Mels Way Bistro once in a while. We like going Tuesday's because their Prime Rib special is wonderful (we actually go for just that). Their food is great but we don't go as often as we would like to because Tuesday's is karaoke night and although we all enjoy that type of entertainment the music is just too loud that you can not enjoy a conversation with your company. I went once with my mother who has difficulty hearing and she said it was too loud. It's just almost impossible to talk with your company. I wish Mels Way Bistro would read this and hopefully make adjustments and play the music a little lower so their patrons can enjoy their dinner. But do give it a try the food is great especially the Prime Rib. read more

It was love at first bite! Fairly new snowbirds who are lucky to have this establishment on our premises. We enjoy the food, the ambience, the music and particularly the staff. Amanda was our first waitress...and we have requested her ever since. We've actually created an "Amanda fan club" as all of the guests we have invited over the last two years, only ask for her. She knows her business, remembers everyone's drinks, provides excellent service so that even when it's crowded, you feel like a VIP. Thank you Amanda!! Kudos to the owners for consistent quality of food, service and entertainment! read more

Food is very good and if you go during an advertised day the entertainment is amazing. You can not do better for quality of food, entertainment and price. read more

Last night we went to this place with another couple for dinner and dancing.First let me say it was a lot of fun, with no regrets. its a pretty place which makes dining better but lets get to the food first. I had the sea food soup with fish and a lot of other stuff and it was "good" then I had the seafood stew over spaghetti because I really don't eat linguini. It had shrimp and calamari and clams and a red sauce that was very good.my wife had lemon chicken and she liked it and took some home,(which she just had for breakfast,LOL) The service was better then I expected because our server Melyn was very good.the bar bill was reasonable for a country club and the drinks were good also. The band was fun and we all had a great time read more

recent visit, very clean, comfortable seating, quick service, delicious food, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff will be back bill newell

Mel's Way, it seems to Me, has lost its Way. A recent Visit was to see a "Doo Wop" Group that a friend who took us spoke highly of. While the Singers were really good, nothing else was. Food was edible, Waitresses rushed Us, as if someone was waiting for our Table at 9:30, and when asked if I was still "working on my Dish", and I said I was, she removed it from the Table. Really. Hidden in the filthy Clubhouse of Poinciana High Rise Condo lined Community that was aged 25 years ago, which was about the last time the Rest Rooms were cleaned. Sorry ! (1 Star of the 2, is for the Guys who Sang) read more

Main complaint...I make a reservation, date-time-how many..I get there and they do not have my reservation. This time I called back 3 days before and sure enough they do not have my name down. Really pissed. Lousy salmon but the duck is very good. Will never go back read more

GREAT Prime Rib! Service was spot on!!! My Dad & I both enjoyed our amazing dinner!!! We will be back!!!

Ownership is fantastic. Mayleen and Mel always have a smile. The wait staff are excellent and Angie is just the best. It feels like I am in Cheers whenever I am at Mels. Everybody knows my name. Very accomodating. I have had virtually everything on the menu and have enjoyed everything. The Lamb Chops are to die for and all the Italian dishes are authentic and tasty. Entertainment is available from Wednesday to Saturday with Karaoke on Thursday. All in all a wonderful spot for Dinner, Dancing and Friends, for locals and visitors. You cannot go wrong with a night out at Mels Bistro. read more
