    Dining at the Melting Pot is an experience. It takes up to three hours to get through the four-course meal, which is great for a romantic evening or celebration.

    I wouldn’t recommend going to this location. My kids love the melting pot - but this time was really bad. I wish I’d kept my receipt to know who my waiter was - but he didn’t care that we were there, he flicked a sauce onto my daughter while making the cheese and cleaned it up with his finger, he didn’t even stir the cheese, he basically threw our meal down with no explanation- and when they cleared the table - they threw silverware and plates everywhere. That once it got on my son. The quality of food has also gone down- the bananas were way too ripe for chocolate. I also asked about the lighting and our waiter said nothing he could do. For nice night out- find somewhere else - this team doesn’t care that you are there.

    The melting pot was absolutely amazing. We went on New Year’s and they had a wonderful champagne package. We also are vegan and they were very accommodating. Would definitely recommend to all my friends and family

    Absolutely wonderful! We come for my birthday (or around) every year and it is a consistently fabulous experience! The menu has changed back and forth a bit, but we always find either new styles to try or old favorites. The staff are always top notch and the ambiance is unlike any other. They really make your celebration special! I also like it that the experience is slow paced so you can savor the experience. Don't go with someone you don't like talking to! We'll be back next year or before.

    We were a party of 9. Hostess placed us in a back room that we had all to ourselves. Our waitress was very attentive and explained how things work in this unique way of dining. Food choice is excellent, and sauces are very good.

    I purchased multiple add on packages for my daughters birthday , none of which were ready at the table when we arrived. For $90 dollars everything should be ready to go upon arrival. I mentioned this to our server Mandi (who was wonderful) this was then corrected. But for $90 dollars i should not have had to ask or remind anyone. The table should have been decorated and ready to go.
