Ordered the wise guys and Detroit style. Service: 5 out of 5 Fast casual. Be ready to order once you get to the counter. Lines can go from 0 to 100 rather quickly. Environment: 4 out of 5 Tight inside and some seating outside. It would be great if they could expand to a bigger space. Overall: 4.25 out of 5 You honestly can't go wrong.

The food and drinks were really great, everything was really fresh and flavorful. Although the restaurant was pretty busy we didn't have to wait too long for our food.

I came here with my husband, my family, and dog after we checked out a dog event on Broadway Plaza…read more I searched for dog friendly restaurants and Melo's were the first few that showed up. Definitely craving for Italian good so immediately chose Melo's. I was able to make a reservation. We were able to find a parking spot on the street. Melo's was not hard to find. The patio was pretty. The ambiance outside was chill and there was shade from the sun. It was not too noisy. I was able to have a conversation with my family outside. Our waitress asked if my dog wanted water. I told her no need for water, he has his own. Always appreciate when I go to a restaurant and they think of the dog hehe. My dog was chill and just rested while we were there. There were a few other dogs too. I loved seeing the designs on the plates and bowls they served the food in. We ordered... - Fried calamari for appetizers : delicious. Not too salty. Sauce perfect. No complaints there. - Spicy Vodka Rigatoni : me and my husband ordered the same. It was delicious, but not at all spicy. Kind of disappointed there was not that much spice or kick to it. We had grilled chicken on ours. For me, the chicken was a bit more on the dry side, but still tasty. - Pappadelle bolognese : my brother ordered this and thought it was "good" but he said he expected more. - Mafaldini E Pollo : my dad ordered this and he emptied the whole plate! He really enjoyed it haha - Italian Deli : my mom ordered something different than us. She thought it was good, but "too big." I guess she's used to smaller sandwiches. It came with fries which she liked. We didn't get any special drinks nor desserts...we got full hehe...but will try next time for sure. My mom saw a small bug on her cup. She was not happy about that. But didn't bother to complain about it. But overall our experience was enjoyable. Definitely want to come back and try the other dishes. And see what it's like to eat indoors. Thanks for having us Melo's!

Made a note to stop by after a very thorough Yelp search. The slices of pizzas look amazing and I enjoy New York style since it's the absolute perfect ratio for topping lovers. I was originally planning to have pizza dinner on a Friday night but was already in downtown Walnut Creek. Decided to stop in. Upon entry all of the staff, from the chefs to the gentleman behind the counter were in good moods. Definitely a great sign of the good that was to come. The person who helped me with my order (sorry I didn't get your name) was super cool. Ended up leaving with three slices of pizza. Now if you know dtwc, you know there are countless options for pizzas and Italian food. I would still urge you to try panCoast. Great vibes with a small business feel. It offers fantastic options, by-the-slice, and you can totally taste the fresh ingredients. Totally thrilled with this discovery!

I had always heard about Pizza My Heart, namely their original Capitola restaurant, because I have…read morealways seen people rocking their t-shirts! Thankfully, when a location opened in Walnut Creek, I was able to try it finally. I was honored to be a guest at Pizza My Heart's Yelp Elite Party a while ago and try lots of their delicious slices! I have been back several times since. Most recently, my family was still hungry after we met up with friends at the new Bare Bottle nearby. Their kitchen was wildly backed up, and they weren't taking any more food orders. We left hungry, and Pizza My Heart was on the way to our car, so we knew exactly where to go! Pizza My Heart sells pizzas by the slice, which comes in really handy, especially when the family wants different toppings! It was already late, and we only needed a slice each, so Pizza My Heart was perfect. It was a nice surprise to see the bright yellow surfboard we signed hung up in the restaurant. My son came with me into the restaurant to order, and he was excited to spot his name that I signed on the board! After spotting the surfboard, I was warmly greeted by Marcos and was delighted because I remembered him from the Yelp Elite Party! He was so fun and helpful at the Yelp Elite Event (we even gave him a big cheer and round of applause at the YEE because he was that good!), and I was also treated to his excellent customer service again! He told me about what slices they had with a big smile and friendly demeanor. He was quick to take our order and get us our slices boxed up. Slices here are a tad on the pricier side, but I don't think you'll feel that way when you see them chock full of toppings! They offer a slice for everyone, from vegan slices to dairy-free (which I needed to order when my nursing baby had a milk protein allergy) to a hearty slice for meat lovers, which is packed with all types of meat. I've tried a variety of slices and I've never been disappointed. I love their slices that feature ricotta cheese! Yum! Thanks Pizza My Heart! We'll be back!

I went with a party of three around 4-4:30, and we were the only ones there, so we got to order right away. After looking over the menu, we decided on a pizza with BBQ sauce (can't remember the exact name). The presentation was great, and the portions were generous we had about 2-3 slices left over. The only thing I didn't enjoy were the fountain drinks. They had a strange aftertaste, almost like dirty water. I tried Coke first, then switched to Sprite, but it tasted the same. Other than that, the pizza was really good flavorful and fresh. I'd definitely go back if I'm in the area again.

Looking forward to the next pizza night!

Observations: 1) The place is very small. They sit you outside in a very windy alley. The food gets cold within 5min or so. Heaters don't help that much. 2) When you make a reservation on OpenTable you choose "Standard seating" - it doesn't mean inside. Inside capacity is about 50 or so ppl with 10 or so by the bar. So capacity is very limited. 3) We ordered lemonade for kids. They serve it in short glasses filled with ice to the brim (despite our ask for "no ice"), effectively reducing the liquid volume. We paid $35 for lemonade. 4) Food is very uneventful, nothing was remarkable. Their gnocchi with meat resembled Chef Boyardee from back in college times. Not sure why this place felt so pretentious with really no substance to back it. With so many options around like Montecatini, Doppio Zero, Benvenuti, La Fontaine, etc, not sure how they are still in business. Definitely not recommended for families, and have a hard time figuring out what audience they cater to.

We made our way to the restaurant yesterday afternoon and were luckily able to find street parking right by it. The restaurant itself was actually pretty empty for a Thursday afternoon, understandably so. But the server that attended to us was quick and seemed happy to answer our questions about items on the menu. While the Prego Pizza unfortunately did not work to start my cousin's labor (at least at this point 24hrs later haha) it was very delicious! It came loaded with a bunch of different toppings and they weren't kidding when they said they put a lot of garlic! Even though this pizza did not induce labor, I'd be happy to come back and try more of their menu offerings in the future.

Fortunately, we were seated right away, which was a great start! ​We ordered the clam linguine and requested a white sauce, but it ended up coming out with red sauce instead. I decided not to mention it to our server because the initial service felt a bit cold and unwelcoming when we placed our order. We were a group of three adults and one child, and since the men weren't hungry, we only ordered a pitcher of beer and the pasta dish mainly to feed myself and my toddler. It felt like that might have affected the hospitality we received. ​The restaurant seems to be best known for its pizzas, so if we happen to return in the future, we'll probably give those a try instead.
