Best poutine around the area, the sauce is really good and the cheese fresh. The chicken was nice and crispy and we had really good portions for the price! The owner is friendly and obviously passionate about her food.

I’ve been to Mel’s several times since she opened in the summer of 2025. The food is always delicious with big portions, especially the wraps. I’ve also had her 5oz gourmet cookies several times, and I’ve never been disappointed. The food is always fresh, and the prices are fair. I’ve always been greeted with a smile and good service. I will definitely be back!

I really wish I could leave this review anonymously because every time someone posts anything less than glowing about Mel's Kitchen, the owner , or sometimes her friends, jump into the comments to argue on social media. That alone makes the whole experience uncomfortable. To be fair, the fried chicken is probably the best thing on the menu. It’s crispy, flavorful, and actually well done. But unfortunately, that’s where the praise ends for me. The rest of the food has been consistently disappointing. Dishes are often overly spiced to the point where you can’t taste anything but heat, and many items come out overcooked and dry. Proper seasoning and cuisson really matter, and right now it feels like the recipes need serious refinement. Either the spices are out of balance or the food is left cooking too long , sometimes both. Constructive criticism shouldn’t turn into an online debate. I hope the focus shifts toward improving consistency, managing spice levels, and paying closer attention to cooking times. There’s potential here, but it’s not being realized beyond the fried chicken. Bullying customers on social media because you want everyone to like your food not a way of doing things either.
