Evan (the bartender) and Luke (our server) were absolutely phenomenal. Date night without kids, and the evening had issue after issue. They insisted we ended up leaving home late and unfortunately not arriving until 8:15. Both gentlemen reassured us multiple times that we were not a burden, and to just relax and enjoy our evening. We live over an hour away and will be returning because of these 2 fine, young gentleman. 10/10 recommend this location.

Visited with my family for the Thursday deal. Half price martinis were good and just a real good dinner. They do it a little different than they use to- cheese comes already mixed but meat comes with the sauces and dessert was good too- no complaints.
Kids are also a discount I think $25 for the kids and $36 for the adult deal night with three courses!
Eight years prior:Expensive but a different type of experience. I liked it. The four course is fun. Pot of cheese, unlimited veggies/sides. salad, meat with different dipping sauces and then a chocolate pot to finish with a good variety of yummy desert sides to dip - cheesecake is my favorite :)

We come here fairly frequently and right now as we are sitting in our seats, I'm a corner booth away from everyone else in an empty restaurant.....the service is atrocious. Sat here for almost 15 mins before anyone acknowledged us. I stood up multiple times trying to get someone's attention and no one apparently cares. For the amount of money spent at a place like this....you're far below the standard. We could probably get better service at taco bell for 10x less than we would spend here.

Came here for our daughter’s 7th birthday, it was A+++ from the start! Great food and atmosphere, but the star of the night was our server Courtney. She was by far the best server we have had at the Melting pot. She was prompt, attentive and just fantastic. Thanks for making our girls birthday amazing!

My boyfriend bought us the date night package. The host working that night speed walked us to our table. I was wearing heels, my boyfriend slowed down to keep up with me and the host was asking us questions that we had to keep asking him to repeat because it felt like he was literally running away from us. He then practically slammed our waters down on the table. And took the fastest picture of us ever. He was in a good mood and overall polite but was acting like he was running a marathon, talking fast and all. I work in the industry and understand you have to be quick sometimes to keep up but running your guests to their table is a bit much.

Awesome atmosphere, good appetizer and dessert. Was not fond of the pot cooking method for the meat. Would have chosen the grill if had known the meat was just boiled in the pot.

The food was good. We had our cheese fondu and the waitress came by and asked if we needed anything we told her more carrots and broccoli she then came back about 20 minutes later and asked how we were and i told her we were still waiting on those 2 things. We waited 30 minutes from when we got our salad until the waitress came back to ask if we were ready for dessert. We were her only table so she wasn't over busy.

Completely delightful! They decorated our table for our anniversary dinner with eloquence and ensured us a very romantic night and delicious food!!
It was a cool experience but it was pretty expensive for what you get. I have a gluten intolerance and even though I took precautions to order the gluten free version of the cheese dip and gluten free bread there was still a reaction when we got our steak plater. The waitress told me the teriyaki steak contained gluten and just cooking it in the same pot was enough to trigger me. Plus I think I may have eaten a piece on accident from the pot. So be very careful if you have gluten issues on what you order. My husband also forgot his credit card after check out and the staff was great to let us pick it up early the following day.
