    Disappointing. I haven’t dined here since before Covid and they have gone downhill. This used to be a dining experience that the ambiance, service and food was worth paying a little more. Not anymore…the hostess was rude and indifferent, despite having a reservation we were told that we would have to wait 20 minutes or take a high top table in the bar. We chose to wait as this was a birthday celebration and the Melting Pot was chosen for the experience. When are table was ready they led us to a table near the restroom and kitchen that did not look clean. The bar staff was our server and she was very pleasant but it felt as if we were just patrons at the bar. We were a party of two couples and each couple wanted to order the 4 course experience but we wanted different fondue. The table had only one cooktop and we were told that we had to order just one. Our server tried to locate a second freestanding but didn’t have any. We were moved to the high top bar table because they had two burners. The food was good but by this time the experience that I remembered from the many special occasions that we have been here in the past has been tarnished. My spouse is not a fan of here because of cost and cooking your own food but would go along because I have always loved the experience and service. I think I will pass next time.

    Always a treat to go here! Our service was top-notch and accommodating. The dipping sauces were excellent but they gave 4 of us such a small amount! We had to keep asking for more.
