Since 1972, J. G. Melon has been serving great burgers to grateful Upper East Siders. If a tasty, simple burger and maybe some French fries is your idea of heaven, then this is the right place for you. Their selection of beers on tap goes great with those burgers, and if you want to eat at the bar, food is served there until late at night. There are also good salads and chili. Cash only.
