WORDS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

Found Mel’s Diner on Yelp and decided d to try it since it was conveniently located near my hotel. What a great find! Jennifer was our waitress for most of the meal and was outstanding. We ordered the dinners – Soup, entree and beverages. The food was amazing. When the bill came I was pleasantly surprised at how inexpensive dinner turned out to be! We’re returning tomorrow for breakfast!

This dinner has fast service and low prices! I ordered the filet Mignon and it was nice and juicy. April, our waitress had just trained last week and you would have never known. The food came quick and the service was amazing. I would come back if I’m ever back in Bonita springs!
- Brianna B
