I’ve been looking forward to my scheduled lunch at The Melt for weeks now! Today was finally the day! They’ve added some new menu items in celebration of National Cheeseburger Day.
It was a tough decision but I went with; Impossible Melt burger, cheddar bacon ranch fries and chocolate shake. My first bite was the cheddar fries. Creamy, velvety deliciousness surrounded my taste buds. Fries were thin cut but not overcooked. Cheddar sauce got kicked up a notch with the bacon and ranch. I was in cheddar fry heaven. Make it a double order and that would be my meal.
The Impossible burger had subtle meat flavor combined with cheddar, jalapeño, pickle, thousand island sauce & toasted warm bun. These would not be ingredients I’d normally choose so needless to say I was surprised when it was almost impossible to put down!
The chocolate shake had a wonderful thick, silky texture that was addicting. Normally I have leftovers, but not today!
There are a number of ways to order here. A self order kiosk is located near the front door. Or you can order through Doordash, grubhub, postmates and ubereats. Or just walk up to the friendly cashier.
Thank you Zoe for all of your help especially on such a busy day!
Happy 10th anniversary this month to The Melt! May you have many more.
Much appreciation for the invitation Alison!
They sure have some tasty food here! Thanks for inviting me to celebrate National Cheeseburger Day!
The impossible burger sounds and looks most delicious. I used to be a huge fan of this place in the early days when all it had was grilled cheese. For a long time the closest location to us was at the Irvine Spectrum and it was my mid-point stop between San Diego and L.A. for lunch. Like most places it diversified in order to keep up with changing tastes and appeal to a wider audience, but I still gravitate toward the grilled cheese when I visit from time to time.
Your welcome!
It really does taste like meat, I enjoyed it. I’ll have to try out the grilled cheese.
