The Melting Pot Restaurant Reviews:

Very dissapointed! December 31, 2007 Food Service Atmosphere Cleanliness Overall        We arrived at 6:30 for our reservation. We were not seated until after 7:30, with no apologies. On to the bar, where, I kid you not, did nto have the 1st SIX drinks I asked for (SIX!!!!) I asked for an Amaretto Sour and they had no sour - OK - I asked for a Heiniken (sp?) - did not carry it...nor did they have Bud, Bud light, Miller light, or Labatt Blue. What place runs out of Budweiser!!! Of course - no apologies....We finally get to the table, I order a Strawberry Daquiri (which was fabulous, either that, or I was just happy that they finally had something in stock) and the waiter was very nice. However, the food was very average. With tax, tip, drinks, etc - I expect a 5 star meal when dropping $145 and I left with the feeling that I just ate at Eat-and-Park. I would strongly recommend NOT even bothering with this place. Review By: Scott From Not at the Melting pot, that's for sure!

I never can quite believe it January 14, 2007 Food Service Atmosphere Cleanliness Overall        The food here is incredible. But it's expensive. Now that would be fine if I received good service, but the half a dozen or so times I have dined here that has not been the case. I once waited thirty minutes after my reservation sitting at the bar without so much as an apology. I can't believe it because you can tell that this place stresses service. Might just be me, and I'm not going to stop going there because the food is that good. Review By: Anonymous Review From: cleveland

June 03, 2005        If the poncho can make a fashionable comeback, so can fondue. This time around, though, you won't risk setting your poncho aflame as you hunch over a rickety fondue pot, woefully swirling a chunk of bread in bland melted cheese. These fon-doers have perfected their craft: The first Melting Pot opened in 1975; this addition to the chain, located in Legacy Village, is the 75th store. If the fondue theme causes your gimmick alarm to sound, fears will subside upon entering: Dim lighting (at times, a little too dim), a bar area and secluded booths make an upscale statement. Tables are equipped with a heating surface and fondue pot positioned in easy reach. Meals can be assembled according to your whim or ordered prix fixe style - for example, the Big Night Out includes a choice of cheese fondue, salad, entree and mint chocolate-chip dessert fondue. The entree selection ranges from Surf and Turf to vegetarian, but the real attraction here is dessert: Brownie squares robed in amaretto meltdown must be tasted to be believed. Melting Pot also offers a huge selection of wines by the bottle and a specialty cocktail list. Review By:
