I've been eating at Melos since 1977. The pizza is consistently good. Great red sauce combined with mushrooms and sausage make a perfect pizza. Thier crust is so good you wouldn't leave it behind. I like the family style approach to thier salads. The service is efficient and the prices aren't bad either. More

I have been coming to Melo's for almost 20 years. It is the best traditional pizza in Cental Contra Costa. My favorite pizza is their Linguica with Eggplant and Extra garlic (portugeuse-neapolitan fusion!). They have a full selection of pasta's and a good-value wine list. A family run operation with deep ties to the community. More

Hands down, the BEST pizza in the Bay Area. I am a fan of New York Style pizza, and Melo's offers a fabulous west-coast version of this. The restaurant tends to get pretty crowded a lot of the time, so take-out is better if you're in the mood to relax. But eating in is good, too, as Melo's has a... More
