"In June, Melrose’s Carmel debuted brunch. A round of new cocktails accompanies daytime dining with a Mediterranean-flavored Bloody Mary, or the anise-filled Limnarak with Arak Elite, demerara syrup, lemon, and mint. The full cocktail menu is equally compelling with a refreshing Jaffa breeze with gin, aloe liqueur, caramelized za’atar honey, and cucumber in a wheat beer float." - Rebecca Roland, Mona Holmes, Eater Staff
