About this business
A popular lunch spot, Po Melvin's dishes up excellent Louisiana Cajun home cooking at reasonable prices. Don't look too hard in the oversized aquarium for the "invisible fish" as the sign suggests, they tend to be difficult to see. Set your sights on the unusually spicy Roast Beef or an exceptional Hand-Breaded Chicken Fried Steak dinner. Jalapeno cornbread, a favorite, is moist and spicy and has chunks of corn mixed throughout. No alcohol is served. Po Melvin's is close to DFW Airport and local hotels.

Food is always fresh and tasty. Never had a bad meal here
Good I agree with the previous poster on this review that this place is a really good place to go and eat. They are a very family oriented restraunt so that means that there prices are not bad at all. I like going here to eat because they are good people that work here and they know how to cook good food. They are great people they are so friendly and nice whenever they are walking around to the customers. It is nice to see a place like this still in this so very comkmericial domniating world of today.
Resonable priced / HUGE portions. The slogan written on the door is, "So good, it'll make you slap yo mama." Well ok then...I am the type of person who usually finishes off everything that is put in front of me. Well OK, I finished the chicken fried steak too, but it did take some doing. Po Melvins serves very good home style cooking at very good prices. If the chicken fried steak were any bigger, it would have needed side boards to keep it on the plate. And it was a hand dipped one, not one of those box jobs you'll find at ... read more
Good home cooking at a reasonable price. Good home cooking at a reasonable price. I don't know what it is about Dallas, but the Southern charm seems to be lost down South. Most vegetables in restaurants today do not have the flavor and depth that Po Melvin's does. Po Melvin's brings a taste and charm that is needed in Dallas. It is not an elegant snobby restaurant and provides great meals for the masses. You don't see "Meat and 3" on the menu, but everyone in the South knows that what it is when you see the Select one meat s... read more
Best Potatos around! My family and I have been going to Po Melvin's for over 13 years and have never been disappointed. The mashed potatos are excellent and flavorful, as well as their chicken fried chicken and chicken and dumplings. Once in a while Melvin Jr. will be in and is always a friendly guy. Hands down the best place for down home cooking!
Home Cooking like mamma Great big servings of genuinely good food. The weekend breakfast buffet is really popular. Make sure you get there before the church crowd on Sundays. EB, ya make a great omelet.
Come Hungry! I love Po' Melvins! They have such wonderful food at FANTASTIC prices! I can't ever finish my whole plate the servings are so big!! They could improve on their margaritas, but all in all, it's not a bad place to eat with our friends.
RecommendedHad lunch here today with coworkers and we loved it! I had the red beans and rice with grilled pork chop with lemon wedges I thought was different but I squeezed some on the chop and OMG yum!! The cornbread was delicious, moist little sweet and great in the red beans and rice, everyone is so friendly the waitress was attentive and cheerful. Definitely going back!
love the fried pork chops
