An example of an positive review: This place is open 24/7 and has hella cheap late night eats. I got steak and eggs and my boyfriend got a hamburger, fries, and mozzarella sticks. We both got drinks with our meals and we still spent less than $20 bucks w/ tip! Now THAT'S a deal. My steak was pretty chewy, but the portion was a lot bigger than a lot of other graveyard steak and egg specials I've had and at $3.99, how could I complain? The mozzarella sticks tasted just like Sonic's mozzarella sticks; nice and gooey on the inside and crisp on the outside, served with marinara sauce. My boyfriend's burger looked very fresh. The tomatoes, lettuce, and pickle just screamed, "Eat me I'm f*cking crispy!" and, of course, he devoured it all. *Tip -You get 10% off your entire bill with a players card! -They have daily specials for $9.49 that run from 11am-10pm: Mon - Beef Stroganoff on Egg Noodles Tues - Chicken Cordon Bleu. Wed - Roast Pork with Mashed Potatoes Thurs - Corned beef and cabbage w/ potatoes and carrots Fri - Seafood platter Sat - Yankee-Style Pot Roast with Mashed Potatoes Sun - Roast Turkey Dinner

An example of an negative review: Our first sign that this was a bad choice should have been the fact that in a place that seats around 100, we were the ONLY ones there. I read a very nice review of this place on Pittsburgh Live (http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/lifestyles/fooddrink/s_619820.html), but now am skeptical of the reviewers motives. The review made this place sound like it was a hip new addition to the Pittsburgh food scene, but really it's more like a not so hip new addition to the tired old ideas executed poorly scene (okay, that was lame). But seriously, for the price and the hype, I was expecting a lot more. So let's begin with the decor. You walk in and things seem nice and posh. Dark lighting, classy tables and chairs...the works. But then you start looking at the art and it's of various sports? I get that we live in a sports centered city, but now I just think that Melange is a glorified sports bar, not a classy eatery. And if it's a sports bar, how can they justify charging ~$30-40/person? So perhaps they need to think about their identity a bit. Next, we move on to the service, which, for the most, part was okay, but given that we were the ONLY party in the restaurant, wasn't exactly stellar. Our waiter was very nice and made no substantial mistakes, but when I asked for a wine recommendation (they have three Malbecs...which I tend to love), he named something else all together (thinking that it was a Malbec) and then back peddled when he realized that I saw he was making it up as he went along. He recommended a good wine, but my experience is that those are all good, so really the credit does not go to him. Then, when our main dishes came out (4 of which were meat dishes) he forgot to bring our steak knives. Again, wouldn't have been a problem, but our butter knives were covered in...well...butter. So probably not a good idea to reuse them. Then, it turned out that they only had 2 clean steak knives in the entire place. Really? Again, keep in mind that we were the only people there and it was 7:30pm...not exactly right after opening. So yah, service was so-so. Finally, the piece de resistance, the food (please note the sarcasm). A few us ordered the chili lime quesadillas (which sounded great...see photo), but the chef apparently forgot the chili and the lime. They were as bland as anything I've eaten in a long time. On to the main dish. I ordered pork tenderloin (see photo) which was actually not too bad. The sauce was sweet (I like that) and the meat was cooked just right. So, on that front, well done. But my girlfriend ordered the lamb (the most expensive dish on the menu) and it was completely boring...and a little cold. I usually love to pick at food on her plate, but this time I had no such inclination. Sorry love, but that one is all yours :-p Some of the other dishes were okay, but not great. A friend got the walnut salad and said it was tasty. Another friend got the wasabi popcorn and enjoyed it as well. So I can't say that ALL the food was bad, but the majority was. And for the price, not even close to being worth it. Melange needs to decide if they are a glorified sports bar, an upscale eatery, or just a passing fad. Regardless, as it stands, I can't see this restaurant surviving too long. Given that it's across the street from the PSO, I'd happily see this one go to be replaced by a restaurant that deserves the prime location.

An example of an negative review: I gave all smiles rave reviews initially but since then have had a horrible experience there. First, they screwed up in scheduling my cleanings and much to my surprise, billed me $82. What? My cleanings are free! If that is not so bad, I guess I'm just livid that I received a threatening letter in the mail saying that I had been disregarding my bills for months now and would have to pay in full. IT WAS THE FIRST SUCH BILL I HAD RECEIVED! When I called the office they said they do the "best they can" in scheduling appointments so that the insurance covers it but there are over 1100 insurance companies and they are "not perfect". Funny, I have been going to the dentist for years and have NEVER had to pay for a cleaning! And for the nasty billing letter threatening to turn me over to collections ... I MUST have received the other bills because they show they mailed them! This place has gotten roughly $2000 from me in 1 year and $850 (+$82 now) out of my own pocket. All Smiles, this is some "thank you for your business". I will never be back! BEWARE!

An example of an negative review: The guys working here were unfriendly and sort of rude (to customers & each other). Ppl had to wait a few minutes before even being acknowledged and they kept slamming the window and cursing. They seemed unhappy working there. The big guy making the snow cones was dirty and sweaty and my snow cone tasted funny (I had banana/pineapple with sweet cream, they were out of coconut) They also got my order wrong. The one on Cheyenne is waaaay better don't think I'll come back here.
