Melt is moving. The eccentric diner, which opened last summer at 7700 Ivory Ave., in the Carondelet neighborhood, is headed to Cherokee Street. As reported by Liz Miller of the Riverfront Times, Melt will make its new home at 2712 Cherokee St. The move posits Melt among a handful of restaurants and bars – including The Fortune Teller Bar, Livery Company and Siete Luminarias – to open this last year on Cherokee Street in the blocks west of Jefferson Avenue. March 29 will be the final day of service at Melt’s current location. May 1 is the target opening date at its new location.
