The Melting Pot

Great experience overall. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. I felt some of the dipping options could have been higher quality considering the price. Fun new experience for me and good service. Maybe just a tad overpriced for what you get. For us the best part of the meal was the hot beer cheese.

My fiance and I celebrated our anniversary and my Birthday at the Melting Pot on Friday night. It was around 5:30pm - wasn't too busy and we luckily got a table right away without a reservation. The front entrance had a really weird odor - like a old musty restaurant which was kinda off putting. I think if they fixed it up a little, it would make a big change. We started our dinner off with two drinks - the first being a Pomegranate Moscato Sparker which was Pomegranate Vodka, Pomegranate Juice, Luccio Moscato d'Asti. The second drink was a Lemon Berry Mojito which included Bacadi Limon, Wildberry Puree, Mint leaves, Lime and Club soda. These are similar to drinks we usually order - light, fruity style. They were just ok, the bartender made them quite strong, so if your into that you would like it. For us, they were a little too strong. We chose the Complete Dinner For Two which was a four-course experience including your choice of cheese fondue, salad, entrée and chocolate fondue. Premium proteins and vegetarian items served with seasonal veggies. Prepare your entrée in a fondue cooking style of your choice, one per cooktop. $92.95 for the two of us. Our first course is the one we always choose when we come to the Melting Pot. We chose the Spinach Artichoke which included Butterkäse, Fontina, Parmesan, Spinach, Artichoke Hearts and Garlic. This is great everytime and we recommend this as your first course! Our second course was a salad. I chose the Caprese which was Mixed Greens, Fresh Mozzarella, Tomatoes, Basil and Balsamic Glaze. It was pretty good, it was missing a crunch in my opinion to add some texture. Possibly a light dusting of flake salt on top would have rounded it out as well. My fiance chose the Melting Pot House salad which included Romaine, Iceberg Lettuce, Cheddar, Tomatoes, Croutons, Scallions, sliced hard boiled eggs and a choice of dressing which he chose caesar I believe. It was a normal salad, nothing special. For our third course, we chose the cooking style of Coq Au Vin which included Burgundy Wine, Mushrooms, Scallions, Garlic and some broccoli. It was ok. In the past we chose Mojo which was also ok. I think next time we will try the Bourguignonne. For our meats, the first option we chose was the Pacific Rim which included Shrimp, Teriyaki-Marinated Steak, Chicken Potstickers, Sesame-Crusted Ahi Tuna and Duck Breast. These were phenomenal and I would highly recommend! The second meat we got was the Steak lovers I believe, which included Premium Filet Mignon, Teriyaki-Marinated Steak, Garlic Pepper Steak and one other. This was pretty good, if I did it again I would order two Pacific Rim instead. We were provided with 6 dipping sauces, 3 of the 6 were our favorite. The Curry and teriyaki sauce were the best! For the dessert course we chose the Dark & Dulce which was dark chocolate melted with dulce de leche and finished with sea salt. It was pretty good. We enjoyed dipping the fruit and rice crispy in the chocolate. The other dippers for the dessert weren't our favorite. We were so full at this point, it was hard to finish our meal! I would love to go back and just order the appetizer, one entree and dessert. That might be a better portion for us. I would go back, overall we had a good experience per usual.

I could think of way better things to spend my money on. There really aren't any mild cheeses either, so don't bring a picky eater. We did the meals for two but only got one dessert tray. Our service was super slow. We were there for so long it was painful. We would go back and do just the dessert for funzies and I'm glad we tried it. But we would never do it again.

Definitely a fun date experience. Went here for the first time not knowing what to expect! There was roses on the table and a rose in a vase, it was date night! We had the 4 course dinner and it was absolutely delicious. My favorite was dessert! Dipping all kinds of choices into chocolate was just heaven!

1/29/22 after tonight's experience this needed an update. Myself along with my wife and 2 friends made reservations for a 2 pot table this evening as we do every year. Upon arrival we were told by the hostess that it wasn't a possibility to accommodate what we had reserved. We considered leaving to be honest, while sitting at the bar a manager (didnt catch her name) came over and explained better the issue they were facing and how they could "fix" the issue. We were sat at a table with a server named David. David was incredibly nice and accommodating, he made our visit fun he made sure we had what we needed at all times throughout. More companies need people like the manager and David that we experienced tonight those 2 people made our experience 10 times better than anticipated when we walked in the door.

First timer. Absolutely wonderful atmosphere and food. The atmosphere alone is worth going for. Then, you get the food. Dinner was over 2 hours. It's a place that makes you want to have a conversation. You can't help but enjoy yourself. Absolutely amazed by the atmosphere. Our waitress Destiny was phenomenal. Highly recommended.

Pricy, but worth it for the experience. We go one to two times a year for special occasions, and the staff always make us feel special. When you make a reservation (ALWAYS do this) tell them what you are celebrating and they can help you do so in style! I also love that they feature delicious mock tails on their drink menu for those who can’t partake of their excellent wine selection.

Two stars is being generous. I feel our waitress tried, but the service and timing was horrible. There was a 30 min. wait between any contact- we were waiting for the next course, ok fine, but nobody even gave us water or drinks. This is cheese, meat and bread. We ate the cheese, which was not enough. We reserved for 4 people but were told we could only have a table with 1 burner, while many other couples had 2. We didn’t want to be starved and thirsty, we would have been happy if someone would have given us water. If you want a 4 person meal, make sure you do not let them talk you into a reservation for a 2 person meal. Overall it was a bad experience.
