    The food is always good here, and our waiter was excellent! Our only complaint was the seating. We were in a tiny booth, and the seat cushions are extremely uncomfortable! All the support is clearly gone from the cushions, so I had to sit on my puffy jacket to keep from being totally uncomfortable the entire time. This is difficult when it takes an average of two hours to sit through all the courses.

    We went for my birthday. They had a handwritten card at the table when we were seated. It was really nice! Food was excellent and service was perfect.

    We have dined at The Melting Pot in Gatlinburg many times and always loved the experience, which is why I chose it for my birthday dinner. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing due to the service. Our server, Lidia B, was short with us and made us feel rushed throughout the entire meal. She didn’t introduce herself or ask if we had any questions, which set the tone for an impersonal experience. Each course was simply dropped off at the table. The cheese course, which is no longer prepared tableside, arrived barely warm, and she didn’t even leave a utensil for us to stir it with. Small details like this made the meal feel less special and more like we were just being pushed through a process. We love The Melting Pot and will likely return, but this was by far the worst service we’ve ever had here. Hopefully, it was just an off night, but it did take away from what should have been a great birthday dinner. I did appreciate that a birthday card was left on the table when we were seated.
