I've heard good and bad things about Melba's over the years. One of the main consensus is that service was slow.

Saturday during Memorial Day weekend I finally made me way to the restaurant. We arrived about 5:30pm and were immediately seated. I was impressed by the large selection of menu items available. My waiter was very attentive and helpful.

I ordered the Southern Catfish, Tres Mac & Cheese and Candied Yams. No later than 15 minutes into my conversation with my friend did our food arrive. It was piping hot and delicious. The Catfish was HUGE!

It's not often you find a soul food restaurant with really good soul food. I believe soul food is hard to recreate outside of your grandmother's kitchen.

One thing I recommend is that you go before or after the weekend rush. Good Luck!
