Literal animal crossing diner! Kidding aside, the food was superb and personally, they have huge serving! Milkshake was good too! I love the ambiance there.
Really cute interior.
I would definitely recommend this place if you’re around the area!

There are no words to describe how awful it is when you're super hungry at 11:17 pm & pregnant, you pull up to the Mel's Diner in Natomas because their business hours clearly state open til 12am on their website & Google, BUT THEY'RE CLOSED all of a sudden...
So, from the parking lot, I call the business, speak with Brianna, who states they closed at 11:15..
Well that's funny...
This location does this all the time.
Hence the negative review finally.
I mean, at least the staff can let the owner know they've changed the business hours to their convenience, on a daily...
Maybe still do to-go orders??!!! So after happening yet again, my recommendation is don't waste your time.
The staff at night says the kitchen closes at 11:15, so they can't serve customers.
Ok sure.
Smh.
However, I'm still in front of Mel's Diner & see 3 staff sitting at the counter eating.
Not to mention the 2 staff out front smoking cigarettes.
Don't hesitate to drive the extra few miles to downtown or Roseville.

It's been awhile, but still on my list of good neighborhood diners in Natomas.
I ordered the Bacon cheese burger with garlic fries 🍟 😋. Wow that was a big burger.
And very tasty, juicy and did I say big burger. The garlic fries were great too Just the way I ordered, crispy. My service was good,my server and the host were very nice.
