Mélisse is described as an elegant, welcoming spot where both brunch and dinner shine with flavorful, well presented dishes and attentive, professional service. The menu features inventive, shareable plates and crowd favorites like shakshuka, falafels, tartares, mortadella, and thoughtful pairings, with many guests praising high quality ingredients and creative twists. The atmosphere ranges from intimate and chic to lively but comfortable, with a beautiful terrace and a refined yet warm vibe that makes it suitable for dates, business lunches, family meals, and celebrations, including weddings. Several reviews highlight outstanding service and staff who anticipate needs, make strong recommendations, and accommodate dietary restrictions. A few mentions reference slower service or noise when crowded, and some diners felt portions or value could vary, but the overall sentiment remains that Mélisse delivers a memorable, high quality experience and keeps people returning for the consistent excellence and inviting ambiance.
The atmosphere is great, the service is good, high quality ingredients & the owner is lovely. I was honestly expecting a highest food sophistication for the standards. I still recommend it for the experience.
Atmosphere, vibes & service are a 10/10. We went there for supper. Staff were so sweet & helpful with us. But i do need to be honest & as for the food, we were flabbergasted by the portions sizes vs the prices. Portions are extremely small, you'll need to order at least 2 of everything. You definitely go there for the aesthetic & vibes.

Vraiment un beau resto à venir entre amies manger des tapas. Le serveur était un peu fatiguant en nous demandant à toutes les 5 mins si on avait fini avec nos plats ... quand nos plats étaient encore plein...
Small portions but good food & cute area. Right when we sat down, before we even received a menu, we were told that we had max 75 mins to eat. slightly off putting as it was 11am empty restaurant.
Nous souhaitons exprimer notre profonde gratitude pour l'incroyable expérience que nous avons vécue au restaurant Le Melisse. Le service courtois & attentionné, tout en restant détendu, nous a immédiatement mis à l'aise. La qualité de la nourriture était exceptionnelle : des produits frais travaillés avec délicatesse pour offrir des saveurs exquises. Nous ne pouvons passer sous silence le panacotta & les calmars, qui étaient tout simplement divins. L'ambiance chaleureuse nous a fait sentir comme si nous étions accueillis à la table d'un membre de notre famille. Merci à toute l'équipe pour cette soirée mémorable.
service sympatique, cuisine excellente, mais nous avons attendu 45 minutes pour nos plats, notre table a ete oublié par la cuisine, d'autres tables sortaient avant la notre... nous avons eu les excuses de la serveuse & de la patronne, & ils ont payés nos limonades....
