Monkey's Roost - Melrose

The hahn is always a good option. brian behind the bar makes some killer old fashioneds and whatever they drink. the personal is always friendly.

I enjoyed a delicious steak filet. including salad bar, suppe, dinner roll. great drinks! the restaurant must be updated!

Seriously amazing fried huh! the salatable is a meal in itself. service is always great! no disappointment! Maybe they try the Friday fish as I am.

Awesome old school supper club. Comfortable atmosphere with good food.

The food was very bland. No seasoning in the chowder nor on my steak also ordered a piece of fried cod fish and it was ok I guess, again pretty sad in the flavor department. A friend had the walleye and said it was good. My girlfriend had the rouladen and baked potato and said that was nice. I tried it and I would agree! The salad bar was stellar! The service was fast, very friendly, and very informative. Another unfortunate part of the night is they do NOT have an ATM and do NOT accept card. So expect to pay with cash or check only. The decor was outdated and there was a funky odor in the dining room. I couldn't describe it, it was honestly just off putting. I'm giving this place 3 stars becuase we ate here with our grandparents as kids and I remember the good always being good so maybe just an off night I don't know for certain. I wanted to like this dining experience and had high expectations and was a bit let down unfortunately.
