Restaurant description

Melon is situated in the hub of trendy Melville?s 7th street and form part of the bustling nightlife that is incomparable anywhere in Johannesburg. Emil Faber and Johann Strauss's business partnership led them to re-open and re-design the old Mezza Luna restaurant, and turn this venue into a chic, stylish fine dining lounge, called Melon. The cuisine is French based, and from the fresh oysters, salads, soups and pastas, to the delicious tender steaks, roast pork belly and tiger prawns, the food is out of this world.

Melon is romantic and cosy, comprising of 65 seats, divided into 5 areas: The main dining area with a huge bar, a stage with a lounge feel, the outside smoking area, the atrium with a cosy fireplace and the private dining area, with its own bar that can easily be converted into a conference room.

Colourful and refreshing cocktails set the tone for sexy dining, and delicious desserts complete this awesome experience. The chocolate fondant is a must. The wine list is varied and well priced. This menu overall, is extremely affordable, and will set you back R150 average per head, for a starter, mains and glass of stunning South African wine. The well priced wine list is varied and recommendations will be made by the very well informed waiters.
