    Great American dine food classic. We had the ham and eggs. The food was cooked, and my order was correct. We'll eat there again

    Perfect little diner in the Boomtown Casino. All the decor you would expect in a Mel's diner and fantastic service. You can check in on the wait-list, then gamble while you wait for your table. We had a tuna melt, French dip, and chicken fingers. Everyone loved their food, and it came out fast. Sam was our server and she was super sweet.

    Service was excellent. ambiance nostalgic - so many views of the past in their decor, really took me back. Food was a bit better than ok. I had been to a different location years ago and loved their chicken fried steak but at this location it was just ok.

    I recently came to Mel's Diner to celebrate my 25th birthday for breakfast. For the food, I got the Ham Steak & Eggs special for $9.99. It was super filling and affordable. Cynthia was my server and she was a joy. She even sang Happy Birthday to me in a very memorable way. I appreciate that so much. Finally, I was given free ice cream towards the end. My day was starting off right, thanks to Mel's!
