    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.

    Overall great. Flowers were supposed to be on the table and they were not. Surprise for my MIL from my son who was taking his grandmother on a date. Would have liked for it to be setup. Thank you.

    AMAZING EXPERIENCE! We took our 5yr old daughter and she had a BLAST! The chocolate was her favorite. From the moment we walked in, the staff was so kind & accomodating. They even suprised our daughter with a chocolate covered strawberrt before we ordered food and drinks! Everyone on their staff went above and beyond to make the experience easy, stress free and enjoyable.

    From arrival to departure, eating at the Melting Pot is not just a good meal, it is a time of relaxed conversation and truly an event! Alexy was our server and she aced it! The food was magnificent; cooking it ourselves was half the fun. It is great to slow down and have a chance to share with others what is going on in life which is exactly what the Fondue experience provides.

    It had been years since I visited this location. We went for a birthday and the whole experience was positive. I walked in and felt like I was in a different restaurant than years before. The food was fresh, the meats were all seasoned well and the choices were plentiful. The booking online made it easy for us and the restaurant called us to confirm and made sure everything was perfect before we even walked in. I would recommend this restaurant when you are looking for something different, for a special occasion.

    This restaurant needs to be renovated. It is stuck in 2002. Besides that our starter and dessert were great fondu. Our waitress was lovely and so sweet. Whole place was TOO quiet. And our meal for 2 people with cokes to drink was $155. We can go to other places for half of the price and still have a special experience. Also, this is nothing to the people running this location. The upper level management or the CEO of this company needs to renovate its locations and make it a more special experience without the outrageous price tag. For this meal we would’ve paid $80 for the two of us. That is what we think it was worth. Instead we paid double…yikes
