Pulled-in and sat right down at a booth and was given a menu by a nice waitress with a pot  in her hand ready to poor me a cup of Joe. I really liked this place because I felt like I was back in time in the sixties. The place is warm and cozy. Enjoyed listening to the locals talk to one another about community business. Really took me back to when people took their time to talk...–Ralph B,

Melitas welcoming colorful sign shines out into the lonely darkness of Highway 97. We've stopped here many times for burgers, fries, and dinners. Always left satisfied, never disappointed. It's a real treat to find good food out here in Central Oregon, and good food is what Melita's serves up–Allison G

It seems quite rare these days to find a genuine family restaurant, based upon community, good service, and great food. (I did not actually stay in the motel, I merely ate in the restaurant several times throughout my visit to Chiloquin). I was in town staying with an old family friend, and she brought me several times to eat at Melitas. We had a blast! I believe out of all the items on the menu, the burgers had to be my favorite, although the steak was a close second.– Annie C
