We celebrated here my wife's birthday last night and we could not have selected a better venue for that event. The ambience at Melina is perfect for such occasions, except that the acoustic is terrible because the loud noise does not allow a qui

Made a birthday reservation and ate here for the very first time. We were immediately met with smiles and lightning quick service. They seated us in an "indoor-outdoor" area of the restaurant which created a more immersive experience. Tom,
First visit to Melina.
Overall, good food, service, and ambiance! I did like that the bar area opened up to the outside.
Amazing food.
I've been twice and everyone has been happy with their meal each time. The service is excellent and the ambiance is lovely. Their patio seating is very pleasant during the warmer months of the year.

When I say go here, I mean it - GO HERE! I've never had
When I say go here, I mean it - GO HERE! I've never had Greek food like this. In fact, one could say I had never had Greek food at all, before trying Melina. Thank God my friends and I tried this place, out of a whim. As a vegetarian at that ti

I came here for brunch with a friend and had a great time! We kicked things off with an espresso martini and a Bloody Mary--both were delicious. The espresso martini was actually one of the best I've had in the area. My friend ordered the lamb
Nice experience -- would return!
We stopped in and decided to share several appetizers: fresh breads, shrimps, octopus, and a few other dishes. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. We paired it with a Greek white wine, which complemented the meal nicely. Finished off with Gree
Great Experience
Great service, cocktails, and delicious food which included carob bread, short ribs, cauliflower, Trahana mushroom!
Disappointment from Jose Andres
Big fans of Jose Andres but this didn’t live up to his standard. The octopus was really good. Everything else was mediocre at best. Mushroom flatbread had little flavor and mostly bread, cheese pie - was pretty good but again, a lot of bread and sh
A nice casual brunch
The room is large and inviting. Everything we had on the brunch menu was creative and flavorful. The house made bread with olives was particularly good. The staff was attentive. There is nearby garage parking available.
Chic Mediterranean cuisine
Was quite impressed with the savory food selections at Melina, but the price tag is quite hefty. Our server was very talkative about all of the food options and their origins . Had the Spicy Shrimp "Saganaki" which does not include any flam
Best meal while in Bethesda
Wonderful food. We sat at the bar because we could not get a table on a Tuesday night. (You know it is good) Food and service were wonderful. The suggestions were all great. Some of the best bread & hummus I have ever had. Everything was wond
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
What a fabulous lunch we had! We had just come from an MD visit and felt like celebrating. That we did with a bottle of Assyrtiko; delish and pricey, but -- hey -- celebrating! Certainly that's worth a few (OK, more than a few) dollars more. For
Server threatened me (a customer)
I have nothing nice to say so i won’t say anything at all. Regardless, the manager and arleth don’t care about anything so it’ll be known not to go there

Fine Greek Food
We got together for lunch with good friends who love this place, and we’ll they should! The menu is short, but none of the choices are conventional, and all are tasty. My chicken salad, for instance came with large wedges of lettuce seasoned with

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Melina North Bethesda. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Melina North Bethesda at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Melina North Bethesda page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at Melina North Bethesda to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Melina North Bethesda!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
