This not my first time at the Melting Pot. I actually used to work there along with a location in PA. Decided to book a reservation for a date night for myself and my husband. I already let them this was date night and added the touch of romance package. The host was lovely kind and sat us fast. After waiting 10 mins our sever Shawn greeted us. We got drinks and waited another 10 mins. Shawn starts to make the cheese. He walks over dumbs the bear and salsa in. Doesn’t tell us what he’s doing and walks away. Another 10 mins goes by. He brings out the rest of dippers and starts making the cheese. Doesn’t say much, doesn’t tell us what he’s doing is doing. At this point I’m thrown off especially due to me having being employed there I know how the experience works. Shawn was also taking care of the party beside us, as going over chocolate with them he’s explaining everything, entertaining them and we get known of that energy. After awhile my husband I felt unwanted. Shawn brought out the pot and never turned the burner on. After eating several minutes I was wondering why isn’t the pot getting hot, I turned on three myself. Cooked all my food, asked to go boxes, and chocolate to go. Spend 200 dollars and tipped this man out of respect for service industry and left. Extremely disappointed. Mine you this gentleman claims he has worked their for three years. So he knows what to do and decided to give below average service. I went there a month ago with friends and got a new server that was going their for a couple weeks that showed more hospitality then him. Waste of money, waste of time.

Not a good value, IMHO 😉

Needs remodeling, Brandon was awesome. He gave great recommendations and service.

It was a nice place, I’d like to come back, and Brandon was so amazing with us, you should raised his salary.

Reserved table on open table, super easy! Triston was our server. He was very personable and enjoyable. He gave us great service, making sure our drinks were never empty and checking in often. He was very confident in his answers about allergens (peanuts specifically), which made us very comfortable eating there with severe allergies. Triston also mentioned validating our parking garage ticket, which was helpful because I didn’t know that was an option! Highly recommend this location.

I had an amazing first time experience at melting pot in Arlington! The S’mores desert was the icing on the cake and our server was the cherry on top. He was flexible with our dietary restrictions, descriptive when explaining each cheese flavor, and has an amazing personality. Big thanks to Sam!

Gabrielle is an awesome server, cheerful, efficient and even remembered extra lemon slice in the 2nd drink. The food and atmosphere were perfect for an easy date night.

Sam was our server and he was great! My sister told me about this place and I will recommend it to others as well. I will be back and hope to get Sam again.
My husband and I came out for a date night and our first time here our waiter Sam was amazing. He was very attentive, very friendly, always on top of everything and always had a smile which is a very refreshing thing to have. We will be back.

Lovely night out. Sam was an awesome server. A lot of fun and good food. My favorite is making green goddess mushrooms.

6 stars for service, Sam made our experience far more memorable than any other Melting Pot visit we’ve had! He was super attentive, friendly, asked engaging questions, and made great recommendations that matched our preferences. We’ve enjoyed meals at several Melting Pot locations and this was by far the most top-notch service we’ve ever received, even for a busy Friday night. I didn’t take any photos since we were expecting a standard experience, and regret not taking any after having received such great service. Huge shout out to Sam, we will be back just for him!

Came in tonight for dinner with friends, had an amazing experience. Sam was our Server and made great suggestions and never kept us waiting.
