It's definitely a must try! I had the Oxtails (extremely tender) with peas n' rice, collards & the A$AP yams (ode to A$AP Rocky), My wife had the chicken & waffles, which she overly enjoyed. The collard green spring rolls....if you don't try, you wasted a date. Unbelievably awesome. Everything we had was flavorfully delicious!
The staff here has made not only my visit to NYC but my birthday weekend amazing ! I enjoyed the artwork, food, along with the old school R&B jams. My server was "GREAT" !!!!! He made my brother and I feel comfortable and was very courteous along with accommodating. Last but not least, the staff along with the other guests sang their hearts out as they wished me a "Happy Birthday". I look forward to visiting this establishment in the near future. Thanks for all that you do and heads off to your great staff !
Have eaten Melba's cuisine food dozen of times always delicious! First time inside of her restaurant and vibe was everything. So glad we could come to eat in a Sunday everything else was overbooked. They have a wait area, inside covered dining and great staff. A few ppl celebrating birthdays and it is a big deal & a family affair at Melba's. So warm and inviting like a hug from her to you.
My only opinion ( biased) how food is served in a bowl rather than a plate all on top of each other. The near would need to be extra crispy to withstand the wet of ( mash potatoes or yams)
Otherwise food was extremely good I ate all it was just different. Also food that eaten prior was always takeout tray. Still very delicious. Come , eat, celebrate and enjoy southern comfort in NYC
