During our visit to San Francisco, we were in search of a great breakfast spot. We discovered Mel's Kitchen on our first morning and enjoyed it so much that we returned every day of our five-day stay. The food was fantastic! The staff was incredibly friendly and provided exceptional service. I can't wait to return the next time I'm in San Francisco!

I spent the evening with my wife and our two youngest kids, who recently moved to the city for school. The service could use some improvement in communication and attentiveness. Aside from that, the food was good but not exceptional for my daughters. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the nachos with ribs. The chips were freshly made, the avocado was fresh, and the portion of meat and toppings was just right.

The service was excellent. The diner food and coffee were just average, and prices were reasonable. The restrooms were clean. Did I mention how great the service was? The staff was very attentive and friendly.
