I love this restaurant. Pricey but worth it. I just wish they gave a little bit more food. I do OMAD.....eating once a day at 6:00 PM and I am really hungry by dinner time. But overall, great food!

My boyfriend and I made a reservation on a weekday(3/28/2024) at this restaurant, eager to experience the fondue. It took us 3 hours to receive all the food, and for the most part, we were quite hungry.I asked the server why the food was coming out so slowly, especially since the restaurant didn't seem very busy. The server explained that all the dishes were made to order; each raw, uncooked dish was meticulously prepared by the chef to showcase the 'quality' of the restaurant. Hence, the longer wait.We ordered the 'Big Night Out Fondue' for two people, which included the cheese melting pot (essentially dipping raw vegetables into the cheese), the raw meat pot (cooking raw meat in the pot), and the chocolate pot (dipping dessert items into chocolate).Firstly, considering we made a reservation, the kitchen should have prepared the necessary quantity of food based on the reservations and their experience. Waiting 3 hours for all the food is clearly not appropriate.Secondly, the server was aware of our extended wait and attempted to sell us on the 'quality' and 'meticulously prepared' food. Frankly, it felt like an unnecessary intellectual sales pitch to justify the delay. Most of the dishes appeared to require minimal preparation, as they were raw and seemingly pre-made. I fail to see why it took three hours to receive them all.Thirdly, the food itself was lacking in quality and freshness. It didn't taste exceptional; certainly not better than a typical Chinese hot pot. We ended up paying $200 for two people, which felt like a steep price for what we received. It seems this restaurant wants to create an illusion of being high-end and worth the cost, but they've missed the mark on two crucial fronts: FOOD QUALITY and HONESTY with their customers.In conclusion, I cannot recommend this restaurant. They fall short on basic food quality, and their belief that high prices equate to quality is simply not true. They seem more focused on appearance rather than substance.To the owner:Please refrain from suggesting I contact your management team for feedback. While I understand it's a professional response, it comes off as insincere. We have shared our feedback with the manager, 'Codi'. I suggest you reach out to her to discuss and improve your business.

When I travel to Orlando, I always dine at this Melting Pot, and it is an A+ experience. This most recent visit was no different—we enjoyed friendly and vibrant staff, DELICIOUS food and drinks, and an overall wonderful dining experience. Truly my favourite restaurant in the world! Don’t forget to have fun with the photo booth at the back of the restaurant…always makes for a fun keepsake!
