    The Melting Pot is the one place where you can blame yourself if your meal isn't cooked right. There was nothing wrong with our food. Although nice, our server was forgetful, overbearing, talked over us, and didn't give us time to put our thoughts together when the bill came. I don't want someone hovering over me while I'm calculating a tip, or in our instance, trying to pick up our invited guests' separated check while hoping they'd cover gratuity. Our server made the evening awkward, but we had a great time making our dinners.

    Good place to eat, but you need to plan on being there for a full two hours. Service was kind of slow even though they weren’t very busy. Food was good but kind of skimpy for the price you pay. I spent $175 for two without any alcoholic drinks. No free refills on the lemonade 😒. Something different for a change of pace.

    My husband and I have been going to the melting pot for a long time. I think this place has run its course with us unfortunately. We’ve now had full conversations about whether it has been purchased by private equity because…. 1) the cheese and meat course pots are now pre-made in the kitchen, and have significantly less flavor. I am not sure what they added to the cheese to get it to be a liquid when not on a burner, but it’s so bland now! I understand doing this makes it easier to get folks in and out, and allows servers to take on more tables, but this was a good differentiator with really nice conversations. 2) beef flavor and quality has gone down remarkably; the filet is now an add on and honestly tastes like sirloin (don’t do it!!!) 3) the new decor is so austere - the place looks like it was designed by the folks that did Hampton Inn The plus side is the prices are very accessible now, but I miss when this was truly a BIG NIGHT OUT. Pun intended. Bring back the old ways, I’m happy to pay more for the experience!!

    There are no changing tables in any of the bathrooms. Definitely not kid friendly. Had to take our dessert to go and didn’t even get what we paid for. Portions were way less than they use to be.
