Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Mele Bistro charms with its "quality healthy food" and festive atmosphere, offering an "absolutely incredible" dining experience. The "attentive" service and "fresh ingredients" make it a top choice for gatherings. Although occasionally crowded, the "welcoming" staff and owner ensure a memorable visit. Highly recommended for both casual and fine dining.

    Mele Bistro is a neighborhood gem that exceeds expectations of a first time guest. We have been enjoying Mele Bistro (formerly Village Bistro) for more than 35 years, with a 10 year gap because we weren’t living in Virginia. It is where my husband and I had our first date, but it had been a favorite of my friends and mine for years before that. The food was always good, but under Frank and Gevoni, the food has moved into the gourmand realm. Read their webpage. Their attention to freshness, how the meats are raised, where the seafood is sourced, how the ingredients meld, and how each plate is presented, is a mouth watering and eye pleasing experience. And their wine list should please even wine connoisseurs. My husband had the filet mignon. He reported “it was the most delicious and tender steak I have ever had”. My friend had the Four cheese raviolis, I got the Spinach and then shared so we could enjoy both. (They were out of the Butternut squash ravioli—both our favorite, but it turned out a good thing.). The Spinach and Four cheese were amazing. Now I have three favorites! Check Mele out. You will not be disappointed.

    The rock shrimp with pasta tasted like they were frozen, they had a very bad after taste. I did not like the entree. Thank you.

    Our group of 8 on NYE was very pleased to end 2024 at Mele Bistro. 2 of us were new to the place and have vowed to return in 2025. The others of us come at least 2 or 3 times a year. Always great service and food beyond measure. Tonight was no exception. Thank you for offering such quality healthy food with extremely pleasurable atmosphere. Usually you get one or the other but Mele has both: quality food and atmosphere.
