Lively Texas-style barbecue with standout brisket and sides, counter-order service, fair-to-good value, but expect queues, noise, and occasional temperature or wait issues.
Why this grade
Melt delivers exceptional barbecue quality—brisket and ribs that justify its destination appeal and loyal following—but inconsistent execution with occasional lukewarm dishes and variable service speed prevent a higher grade. The lively smokehouse atmosphere and welcoming staff create an engaging experience, though crowded conditions and group menu limitations temper the overall value proposition for larger parties.
One caveat: Queues of 20-60 minutes at peak; arrive early
