Ho avuto il piacere di assaggiare le loro specialità salate, come la pizza, l’erbazzone e il gnocco, e devo dire che sono davvero buone e saporite. Il pane è morbido e fragrante, e le paste sono dolci e golose. Mi è piaciuta anche la torta di mele, che era soffice e profumata. Il locale è accogliente e ben arredato, con un’atmosfera familiare e cordiale. Il personale è gentile e disponibile, e il servizio è rapido e efficiente. Ho apprezzato anche la possibilità di fare colazione, pranzo, aperitivo e cena, con una varietà di proposte gastronomiche per ogni occasione

Melli's tradition and quality food and coffee standards are always an highlight in town. Modern ambience and ample space to sit on tables add up. Very popular for dating and meeting up with friends for lunch! You will not be disappointed for sure!

Great cost effectiveness place, meals are not extreme but good.

Very nice place, nice and helpful people. Amazing food and drinks... What else do you need?

Piacevole sorpresa in una zona periferica di Reggio Emilia. Si tratta di un ristorante aperto dal noto panificio Melli o perlomeno intuisco questo. Si possono assaggiare non solo panieri di prosciutti, salumi, formaggi tipici della zona ma anche primi e secondi di ottima qualita'. Consigliato
