Got some time between classes and want something quick to eat?

Grab a burger and fries or some grilled cheese at The Melt located at Saich Way Station.

The Melt is a fast-food chain that specializes in, you guessed it, cheese and cheese accessories.

The menu is fairly cheap over all, with sandwiches ranging from $5-$8.

Mainly, The Melt serves grilled cheese sandwiches and cheeseburgers with sides of soup and mac and cheese.

While the burgers are good (Cheese on both buns? Oh my!), the grilled cheese sandwiches are the star of the show.

In particular, The Italian Job, a grilled cheese sandwich, rocks. It is made with fontina and provolone with grilled mushrooms, all on a spicy garlic toast.

The combination provides all the melty deliciousness of grilled cheese, while the mushrooms lend a heartiness that elevates the sandwich to a meal.

The tomato bisque is decent, a little too sweet on its own, but an excellent accessory to a grilled cheese sandwich, providing a tangy counterpoint to the rich, thick cheese.

If grilled cheese isn’t your thing, The Melt has an assortment of burgers, all made with wagyu or angus beef.

The Naked Fries, The Melt’s own take on plain fries is anything but. They’re sprinkled with what can only be an alchemical powder dubbed “Melt Spice” that turns thinly sliced fried potatoes into a burgeoning addiction with flavors of subtly salty, garlicky, onion-y goodness.

On the other hand, the Well-Dressed Fries, The Melt’s take on fries a la animal style are over-dressed. On paper, cheddar, fontina and jack with bacon and crispy onions sounds good, but the thing is a mess, greasy and soggy all at once.

The Melt transformed three perfectly good cheeses into grocery store mac and cheese sauce.

If you’re looking for a place to eat, there are worse places chow down. The interior is nothing special to look at, with just enough color to not look like a hospital  cafeteria. The staff is friendly and there are sockets and USB ports for charging your various electronics.

The chairs are slightly uncomfortable, being creations of brushed steel. They fit the aesthetic of the place, but don’t do your backside any favors.

Perhaps this is to deter you from sticking around long enough for dessert and one of the worst soft-serve ice cream cones in history.

Perhaps the lowest point on the menu, the Vanilla Bean Soft Serve sounds high-class, but don’t be fooled. Anyone expecting a slightly more aromatic take on a beloved classic is sure to be disappointed when they receive a gritty mess that is both watery and too sweet.

To add insult to injury, it costs $2.95, which is a fair amount to pay someone to eat the thing.
