    We stayed in the igloos, and everything about our visit was outstanding! The igloos themselves are private, warm, cozy, and have a great view of the water and Wharf area. The Bose speakers in there were also a nice touch. It was our first time in an igloo, and would love to do it again. The food was also fantastic. I expected it to be good, but it was even better than we had hoped. The first thing my wife commented was how fresh everything tasted. Be warned though, if there are only two of you, it is A LOT of food! Fortunately, we now have lunch and dinner for the next couple days. The minimum spend isn't cheap for two people, but you certainly get your money's worth. Finally, the service was great. Our waiter was very friendly and although I was initially a little concerned that we can't really flag anyone down in the igloos if we need anything, he was there the perfect amount to make sure we had everything we needed, but not intrusive. Overall, an excellent experience and aside from the ridiculous 4% service fee they charge, really nothing negative to note. This definitely stands out as one of the best nights out we've had!

    In two recent experiences at Melina, the service has been noteworthy! Don’t sleep on the spinach salad, cauliflower or the tuna crudo.

    Had requested a quiet table/booth. When we arrived early on Friday night. 13 Dec, restaurant was very busy and packed. Hostess did not really have any quiet tables/booths and told us up-front. Only tables available were in the back near 2 large, probably loud, holiday celebrating groups. Bar, however, was very open, and we could get stools far away from the large groups. We thought this was perfectly acceptable, and it turned out DELIGHTFUL. We sat side by side, could easily hear one another, and watch all the activity. But what really made the evening SPECIAL and memorable, was our server, the bartender, George. He had great recommendations, all the food was truly outstanding, and we could not have had a nicer evening out for a very senior couple,
