Mel’s Pizzeria

Food is actually pretty good. The service is friendly. 3 out of 4 times we were there they had staff issues that caused our server to disappear for 10 minutes at a time. Average wait for our food was an hour.

Went here with my sister and her Fiancé on a Saturday afternoon. The restaurant has 2 flat screen TV’s in it and you get the impression this place would be packed at night. There was a decent sized Saturday lunch crowd when we walked in.
If you are looking for cheap decent pizza and some good drinks Mel’s is a great place to go! We had ordered buffalo chicken salad, Stromboli, and large pizza. I would not recommend the salads here (although they aren’t that bad, just not my type I’m interested in). The Stromboli was delicious and the pizza was decent. If I had a few fall beers that’d have been a great afternoon!
Overall, I’d consider this almost a dive bar. I’d be curious to come back at night and see what the crowd was like. If you want to go get some drinks or just get some pizza definitely a place I’d go back to.

Staff is always friendly. The beer cooler is Heavenly. I have never eaten anything here that was bad. They get it perfect every time. Mel’s is the only place that doesn’t flinch when I order a pepperoni jalapeño with extra cheese. They have recently added Junior’s cheesecake to the menu which is always delish. My fave is the chocolate mousse cheesecake. It is well worth the $ 6.00 price.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff. They have an extremely well stocked beer cooler for carry out.
Lots of selections for food too, including a white pizza. All of it is quit tasty also.
I love the homey feel of this place too. Broken in and comfy!

We had an excellent experience. :) When we visited it was mid afternoon on a Friday and the dining room was empty… we had heard good things, so we were not too worried. My husband is from Minnesota and I am from Pittsburgh, since moving to this area we have yet to find a decent pizza… until yesterday. My hubby has done nothing but complain about the pizza in PA… because he had not visited the city shops… he really hadn’t! BUT he was VERY happy with his pizza from Mel’s, and said that is where he will get his pizza from now on. I had the hot sausage! YUM! Again, something I haven’t had since being in the city… a decent sausage sandwich! This was hands down one of the best I have had out. Their fries were really good too. The service was great as well. The atmosphere leaves something to be desired… BUT we do not care if the food is consistently that good ;)
Thanks for saving us from «take out hell» Mel’s! :)

Typical Western PA fare in a dive-​bar atmosphere. The white pizza was really yummy. The crust was a bit chewy but overall it had good flavor. We got two extra large pizzas for our group for only $ 17, which I thought was a pretty great deal. I went on a Monday night and they had a 50 cent wing special, with a minimum order of 6 wings. They were the whole wing, and fried very crispy, just how I like. Also, they were having a special on Yeungling, and a bottle was only $ 1.50!!! For inexpensive bar food, Mel’s cannot really be beat!
*They also offer a nice selection 6 packs to go which is super convenient if you’re grabbing food to go!!!

Good place for pizza and a beer. Prices are good, service can go either way. need one waitress to take care of the bar area. Have been back a couple of times recently and the service is much better so i’ll go with 4 stars
