DOUBLE BBQ BACON MELTBURGER
Lou H.

My mouth is watering as I write this review, remembering the melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness I experienced here. I got a double bbq bacon burger but could've gone with a single as they're hearty. As a side I got sweet potato fries which are enough for 2 people to share. The soda fountain is a variety of natural sodas, which I ended up liking more than I thought. Finally they had cookies my buddy's kids loved. My buddy had a steak sandwich which he said tasted like a Philly but he wished he would've gotten a burger as both his kids liked their cheeseburgers. To sum it up it was a greasy mess, but one of the best burgers I've ever had. I'll be sure to come back next time I'm in the area. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.

This was my first time at this location - the food is just as great as any other Melt restaurant. There was plenty of seating inside & some outdoor patio seating as well. The music/people made it a bit loud inside so I sat outside, which was perfect. You can order from an employee or at a kiosk. The staff was nice & the wait wasn't too long for peak lunch time. Both the Melt Burger & the crispy chicken sandwich were amazing - came out hot too. The best thing to top off the meal was the garlic Parmesan fries. Bonus: add the garlic from the fries to your sandwich I'll definitely be back to this location soon!

Stopped in late Saturday night & it was busy but still received our order in a decent time. Ordered the spicy crispy chicken. It's good & not dry & not too spicy. I would definitely order it again. Also ordered the garlic Parmesan fries. So good. Staff were friendly. Plenty of seating. Be sure to clean up after you're done.

CHEDDAR BACON RANCH FRIES
Tanya B.

Reading the menu I was beyond excited to try this place... the burgers and the fries both sounded amazing! I ordered the melt burger and was expecting a tiny punch... something to show there was a jalapeño sauce in there somewhere but nothing. I had one small diced jalapeño piece in the whole thing. The burger meet was ok. I added avocado and that was fresh and delicious, with enough to cover the whole burger. The ranch cheddar bacon fries were ok, but honestly bland?! I couldn't believe it... they looked like they'd be packed full of flavor and it was just bland. I will go back and get again but I wasn't left desiring more.

Nice restaurant,new and clean,walking distance from dorms,apartments and UC Davis school.went here for dinner,a bit crowded,staff are friendly and greeted us,we can order thru their kiosk or from the staff.Service is fast like the fast food chain you grew up in,fascinating is they have to weigh orders that are take out,i guess that's faster than checking the items inside the bag.Burger is delish,love the garlic parm fries and sweet potato fries,crispy chicken is my fave,they don't skimp on the sauce.Fountain drinks have so many choices,love the rootbeer,a must try.

Melt is back in Davis and this spot looks very modern. I like the kiosks for ordering and the signage/decor. Spicy chicken sandwich: B- Chicken is huge, plus very crispy. Spice level is mild-medium, mostly coming from the jalapenos and sauce. Would have liked spicy seasoning added to the chicken directly. I like potato buns but this Bun was a bit too soft, would have liked it toasted. The sandwich is really moist so it is a mess to eat. Fries: A Superb fries, I think these are perfect. Thin cut, crispy, and well seasoned.

The Melt is a great choice for a burger or grilled cheese sandwich in Davis. The restaurant is beautiful and it is very easy to order your food there as they have either a kiosk you can select food from or the traditional counter. My biggest advice when it comes to the Melt is to eat the food there and DINE IN! I say this because if you go for their burger or grilled cheese, the absolute best version of it will be when it comes out to you. My first Melt experience was a to-go order. When I brought it home the cheese had solidified again and the burger lost all its magic. When the burger is fresh, it is incredible! I loved it so much! So just make sure you DINE IN! The burgers are great and full of flavor. I really enjoyed the unique relish/pickle stuff that they put in the cheese. It's a great flavor addition to the burger. The grilled cheeses were amazing as well. I got a chance to take a bite of my friend's sandwich and it was heavenly. If you get it with jalapenos just be careful as they are spicy! The mac and cheese is good and very well portioned, but I found it to be less enjoyable than other places. It has a very hearty taste and can fill you up quickly. The cheese they use is also a bit more of a mature taste which I definitely didn't prefer. Overall The Melt is a wonderful restaurant and one that I'd happily return to!

Cookies and Cream Milkshake

The food was amazing. I tried The Melt burger and the double cheeseburger two separate times and this hit the spot after a long day. The milkshakes were also delicious but once it melts it starts to feel a little too sweet which is a given. The Garlic fries, however, are SO GARLICY AND SO DELICOUS. It makes my mouth water thinking about it. If you are coming with another person get a milkshake and garlic friends to share and burger each. It is the perfect portion size. It is also a great studying place because of how big the seating area is. There is also wifi in there so it makes it even better for staying here a little longer. Sometimes the workers come by and give samples. I tried the chocolate chip cookie sample and it was so soft and delectable. Would come here again!

The service was quick and the inside very spacious. Quickly got my burger after ordering! Meltburger - 8/10 Really nice size for the price, wonderful salty patty. I wish it came with tomato, lettuce, and onions, but that's on me. Wonderful with the pickle and ketchup. Would definitely get again, with some tweaks.

CLASSIC CRISPY CHICKEN
Cameron C.

Solid place to grab a burger and fries. Here is an honest review. Burger & Chicken Sandwich - Average, nothing special Fries - Better, I liked the amount of garlic and cheese Soda - Freakin' fire! Had to taste them all and mix together. Super carbonated too! Milkshake - Not worth, no Oreo chunks or malt, mostly just soft serve :(

Picked up another burger and a cookie to go. Super good!

Went here late night, super nice they close at 2am. I ordered the Swiss and mushroom burger and it was super good, definitely recommend it. The gentleman that took my order was really helpful and kind. Made the experience awesome! I ate there and it was so good I ended up grabbing myself something to-go too haha! The setting of the establishment was really nice, modern feel. They have screens where you can order or you can order at the counter. They have pretty good sodas too, the orange soda was my favorite. Definitely will be returning here in the future when I'm back in town.

Make it a double if your hungry. Great REAL food. The service was top tier. Outside seating. Shopping nearby.

Went back for a second visit this week. I tried a chicken melt which was really good. My husband had a double BBQ bacon meltburger and we shared fries. The tables were all clean this time --yay. The food was excellent. We will stop here whenever we can. It's really good.

Every time I come here the staff is walking around with cookies and the occasional brownie sample. It's the perfect ending to a comfort meal

We went here after the holidays, because this parking lot was A HOT MESS during the holiday season! You couldn't find parking ANYWHERE! Customer service here was so nice! Very nice workers here! We ordered the chicken parm sandwich and turkey avocado! Along with lemon chicken farrow and tomato basil soup! It took about 20 minutes before we received our food but it was so worth it! Sandwiches were toasted perfectly and the ingredients were so fresh! Tomato basil soup was creamy and chicken farrow just comforted my soul. The sandwiches for me were big and filling! I had the turkey avo and I took half home. My co workers throughly enjoyed their chicken parm sandwich! Highly recommend coming here especially since summer is here! Refreshing lunch or dinner!

I've been looking for a good Reuben since coming to Sacramento so I've been checking out a few…read moredifferent places. I found I love Mr Pickle. We ordered two Reubens. One was supposed to be on rye but my mistake I ordered two on their Dutch crunch roll. The rolls were excellent but I know they would've been even better with rye bread. Now I eat my Reubens with horseradish sauce so I ordered a side of horseradish mayo for my sandwiches. It added the perfect kick to a perfect sandwich. The sauerkraut was tangy, the sauce was great, even the Swiss was good. What a great find! The employees were quick, efficient, and very polite. The restaurant was clean, as was the bathroom, so all was good there. The few tables they had were full and there were people coming in and out to pick up their orders. So I downloaded the app and am now a Mr Pickle's fan!

They are neutral without being tasteless and soak up flavor well without sogging up. Sandwiches were filling and fresh enough to be satisfying. The meatball sub sauce was quite sweet and meatballs were kind of springy. Not really to my taste but there's nothing wrong with that. Free chocolate chip cookies were good.

The line actually moved decently quickly to get to the counter to order and pay. Food took a little while to come out but it did not disappoint. We ordered a lot for two people -- the chicken pesto crepe, the Crepeville French toast, and a half order of the sweet date salad. Everything was absolutely delicious! I especially loved that the French toast had a banana bread base. The salad was refreshing and had a variety of textures. The crepe was a great savory brunch option, and the potatoes were excellently seasoned. I look forward to coming back to try more off their huge menu!
