What People Are Saying About J.G. Melon
The Editor

Citysearch
J.G. Melon is a dusty old neighborhood tavern with green-and-white checkerboard tablecloths, old men who drink beer in the middle of the day and Irish waitresses who address regulars by nicknames like "The Commander." The highlight of the pub-food menu is the burger--juicy, loosely packed and served on a small bun. The menu offers other standards as well: a turkey club sandwich, chicken salad, roast Cornish hen. Bartenders pour Coors Lite and Budweiser.

Great outdoor patio for those warmer NY nights..great place to take a date. We sat outside so i can't really say what the ambiance or decor was like inside, but i did see that they have a full bar. The food was delicious, but service was a little on the slow side, but i wasn't in a hurry so no big deal. The food pricing is what you would expect for any "nice" restaurant here in the city.I would recommend to anyone.
