    The pizza, which is what they are known for, was excellent. We had the umami mama which had lots of mushrooms and was really rich. We also had the wings, the prawns, and the savoy cabbage. The cabbage was also really tasty. The wings and the prawns were each fine not as good as I would expect for this caliber of restaurant. Go for the pizza but skip anything else.

    My Brother and I had a Glorious Meal for Christmas Eve, which was a special menu for the night. We started out with the Roasted Apple Meatballs and the Bread Board. Both were excellent! Then we decided to order as a takeaway the Charcuterie Board and two of their Entres for later, (Chicken Pot Pie & Baked Macaroni and Cheese) I know, it was crazy but well worth it. Then my Brother had the Truffle and Mushroom Burger with Truffle Fries and I had the Hot Honey Chicken Sand, and the Chef understood the assignment by using Tender Thigh Meat. I was really impressed with the quality. The prices are a little steep but it's Christmas, so I didn't really mind. All in all, a much tasty evening with impeccable service. Will gladly do this next year, or even perhaps the New Years Eve Dinner coming up in a week? Happy Holidays!

    Our server Katie was amazing and funny however we didn’t feel the food was worth the price. Salmon with no real sides just squash underneath it. Only 2 tacos per order.

    Our favorite anniversary spot has been with this melting pot for the part couple years. This particular night they ran out of bread for the cheese course. But they went above and beyond to make that up and make our anniversary special. The manager and our server were both amazing people. 10/10 recommend
