Opening free bread and sauce
Warm bread and sauce to munch on till entrees come.
To say this Calzone was the size of a watermelon is almost dead on. This Calzone is massive and very cheap for the portion size.

The food was good but the service, not so much. Only one person working the floor, register, and phone but luckily there was only a couple other diners. He wasn't very personable or responsive.

Ate here tonight for the first time in at least 10 years. I couldn't remember why we stopped eating here. But I believe it's because of the following;;Women's Restroom is in dire need of a deep clean. Wait staff could use some help learning to be friendly. I had a veal dish with peas. Peas were obviously canned and tasted awful. My companion had their penne pasta with chicken, spinach and pine nuts. Chicken was obviously commercially frozen diced chicken. She offered to share but frankly it didn't look appetizing.

I had the Chicken Parmesan. It was delicious. The dining area was very clean. The prices are reasonable. I was not a fan of the music but it was at an acceptable volume.

I dont usually go to mt. sterling but when I do this place is usually a top spot to go to. It was good, the service was really slow but it was just 1 kid working the whole place so props to him. the caprese had fresh tomatoes and cheese but the oil just tasted off, not sure why. My pasta was really good, the clams and mussels tasted frozen but im not really complaining, the sauce was delicious and garlicky but it did make me feel a little sick when I got home. The resturant itself is nice in there, our table was super wobbly and it smelled like we walked into a mexican resturant which is a good smell but weird for an italian resturant. Overall not bad. Plenty to eat and big portions.

Great service, okay surroundings, but truly awful food. Chicken Piccata came out a watery, tasteless mess , no flavor and too much water to allow the Parmesan cheese powder to stick, and the chicken was pale and very tough. Chicken Francese was the same watery mess. The men's room was filthy.

I rarely go to Melini's as I am not a fan of their food - and primarily the sauce they use for many of their dishes. The good - The service was good, although the server struggled with English at times. My wife's salad was huge and she liked it. They keep the drinks filled and fresh bread on the table.Now for the less than good - my lasagna was poor - so poor that I would say that I have never had a worse lasagna. It had absolutely no cheese whatsoever - other than a slice of mozerella melted on top. No ricotta, just layers of pasta and ground meat - all topped with Meilini's sauce. Fazoli's lasagna is immensely better than Melini's in every facet. The fried cheesesticks were served with a layer of the sauce on top of them, making the coating a soggy mess - definitely not what I expected, but they tasted ok.I generally support our local restaurants, but to be honest I rarely go to Melini's because I just think their product is less that satisfactory overall. The price is reasonable, but there are many better alternatives, even in a small town like Mt. Sterling.

We have ate at Melini's for at least 20 years and it always been great. The service was good but either the manager or cash register person cannot be trusted at all. We had a $61.52 meal & tipped $20. The charge on my card was for 81.52 and the tip was changed to $30.00. We did not get a receipt (big mistake!!!). This is the second time this has happened in 8 months. This is finally straw for dining there. Absolutely dishonest!!! Owner should make changes to staff responsible and ask forgiveness from the public

Nice local restaurant. Good Italian food and friendly service. Quiet and comfortable. Locals eat here so that tells you it's a fine place to dine. Reasonable prices.

My husband and I will not be returning to the Mt Sterling Kentucky restaurant because of the rude unprofessional customer service that we received by the female that appeared to be a manager who we spoke to about our pizza that we ordered that was prepared incorrectly. The pizza we received had toppings on it that we did not order and did not want but we had already waited (dine in) for over 30 minutes with our nephew and niece for it to get to our table so we told the server we would just take off what we didn't want to eat. As we went to pay I spoke to the rude woman and asked if she would give us a discount for them preparing our pizza incorrectly and she refused firmly and said that they did not make a mistake. I am telling you when I say I was being extremely nice about the situation and how disappointed I am. I wasn't asking for anything big as she could have just taken the price of our drinks off...simple! Or maybe just be polite and say I would if I could and I'm sorry we messed up but instead tried to make me feel I was in the wrong. Her saying I was wrong is the problem but 4 of us know how the pizza was ordered and even the server said it was. So no more business from us
