    This particular experience felt a little rushed which is not typical. I also noticed some serious downsizing in the portions.

    I have been dining at various Melting Pot establishments for over 25 years and the Sarasota location did not disappoint. The atmosphere, food and service were outstanding as always. The four course fondue for two was perfect for us: cheese, salad, entree and chocolate!

    My family had never been. If you haven’t, it’s definitely an experience to remember! And staff were so great! Definitely go, but don’t go overboard on extras offered because the 4-course meals are a ton of food!

    Lea, our server was wonderful! We had such a great time. I do suggest you get a full time bartender and not use a server. We waited quite some time between drinks.

    Great experience as always, food was awesome! A little slow when we arrived at 5pm (on a Tuesday) and slowly the atmosphere picked up and it became busy. Our server was great and his section quickly filled up.
