Crimson Melt

Went mid Saturday afternoon and the place was spotless! The service was very friendly and the food came out quickly. Simple grilled cheese and bowl of chili for $9 was a steal. Nothing fancy but it was delicious. The manager and the young man working when we went should be commended on their service.

This place popped up on Google restaurant search as we were taking our 10 year-old for dinner. Their shtick is fancy grilled cheese sandwiches and they do that well. The decor itself is cool with firefighter memorabilia throughout the restaurant. They offer a discount to Veterans, nurses, teachers and first responders which I thought was pretty cool.For the food, we ordered the 3 Bugles, the Steam Engine and the Flying Fortress. These were recommended by the cashier who took our order. They really don't have service, per se, other than bringing the food to the table. You fill your own drinks and order at the counter. The Flying Fortress was a good hot sandwich. I would order it again if we came back. My son raved about his 3 Bugles and ate every bite. My husband wasn't a real fan of the Steam Engine, but said it was OK. The fries were amazing and I don't even like fries! They could really step it up a notch by offering sauces for their fries other than ketchup.Overall a good restaurant, but be prepared for the sticker shock. A sandwich and fries was $17. Their milkshakes were a kids dream, but at $7.99 (see pictures) or $16.99 "fully engulfed" we wouldn't do it again. That said, it was a fun treat for the kiddo!

This was a unique place that my wife and I finally visited. Normally we would try a restaurant as soon as it came to the area, but this one had eluded us for too long. Tonight we came by to try the dinner $10 special. I went with the Red Tails of Teskegee and it was so, so good. My wife tried the KJ Pyledriver. Both are pasta-themed and really surprised us. The treat of the night was the unique Tetris-shaped tots. Hilarious, and yet so good. We just touched the tip of this melty iceberg. The shakes also sounded amazing, but we saved those for another day. More to come when we've tried those. Loved the ambiance here! The firefighter deco was really neat and the pool table was a hit for several of the younger guests. All in all a cool place to visit and a clean break from the national chains.

In the mood for cheese, so wanted to try this. You order at counter, so takes a bit to read over menu. The months special was not avil but a new one starts tomorrow. They were short handed with the place full. Lady behind counter said there would be a wait. She was making ice creams for a table of 6 kids.This lady was really running this place almost by herself! She was very friendly. Now for food it was pretty good. The Mule still has my votes but for this area it's good.We had 3 different sandwiches. Flying fortress with brisket, Flashover which was Jalapeno hot but really kinda plain. Then one with chicken n cheese curds that was the best, Shift fridge.Fries were good but noticed that the smothered fries other people ordered were being left on table un eaten.Wish I had the waistline to try the ice cream! They are very fancy but $$.Sweet tea not too good, had a lemon flavor maybe.Alot were eating the pizza sandwich, so maybe try that one too.Not sure anyone wipes tables off, they definitely could use a 2nd person that works as hard as the lady does ! Thinking service could hurt business.

Food was great! Ambiance was great! Order at the counter and bus your own tables.4 stars because it took about 30 minutes to get our food but it was definitely worth the wait. Just be prepared going in that the dishes are made to order so it's not fast food. More on the expensive side of sandwiches but they are gourmet and very unique. Not just another sandwich shop! We will be back!

The decor was cool and the bathroom was very clean. There was even an adjustable light built into the mirror. I got the Nashville and I loved it! Perfect combo of sweet and spicy. The tots were pretty good too. For an appetizer, we ordered the cheese curds. They were tasty, but I've had better. My son got the kids meal Mac n cheese. He loved every single cheese filled spoonful. However, it didn't not come with a side, just a drink. We also ordered their shakes. I got the small pike pole which was E.T.'s Ice cream fantasy. It was so good that I think I need a nap. It tasted better with every bite I took. My wife got the strawberry shake. It was even better than mine and had fruity pebbles all over it. Yum!I will say, we waited in line to order for 20 mins then waited 35 mins for our food and then another 15 mins for the shakes. They seemed short handed and slow. We watched the lady making the shakes. She took seriously 15 mins on each shake, so someone else had to come help her. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. Also, it was pricey! For example, my wife's sandwich with the combo was $19! We liked everything we got though. We'd come back again especially for the shakes.

You order at the counter, the food odds good but rich (cheese sandwich), appreciate the owners who are veterans. Prices ok!

Was a bit disappointed but willing to give a second chance. Came in about two hours before closing and half the tables had the chairs put up on them. The sandwich I had was supposed to be pepperoni, salami and ham but it also came with lettuce and banana peppers (not listed on the menu). The "smoked" potato wedges were nothing more than frozen and fried that I could tell.

This is a very entertaining sandwich and shake shop. My family dined here on a Saturday evening. There is a lot of fire fighting memorabilia to enjoy. I loved the ceiling lights that were akin to a fire sprinkler system. This was our first visit so the sandwiches were explained to us quite nicely. I got the Red Tails of Tuskegee. It was an ok sandwich. The marinara was put on in just the perfect amount as to not make a mess. That was much appreciated! I chose the grilled option. The small pieces of chicken as opposed to a larger piece of thigh or breast was an odd choice to me but still decent enough. The mac n cheese bites on the other hand were as good as you're going to get! They were crispy on the outside and extremely gooey and cheesy on the inside! The best I've had honestly. Two of my kiddos got the Flying Fortress. One had tots and the other bbq chips. They both said the sandwich was very tasty. My other kiddo got The Tetrahedron and The Pike Pole shake. They said it was a lot of cheese for one sandwich. It is a grilled cheese though so I guess it's good in that aspect! The Pike Pole shake was a sight to behold! It looked very fun to eat/drink! Dining here really was a pleasure. We will definitely be back in the future to try more of the menu!

Chicken gave me canned vibes. Sandwich is soggy. For the price you pay, it definitely doesn't match up! 100% wouldn't recommend.
