5 stars is not enough for The Melting Pot Gaslamp! They went above and beyond to make us feel special on our anniversary. From the rose petals on the table, to the sweet anniversary card from the staff and chocolate covered strawberries, plus the amazing food and great service! They definitely made this day special for us!

My boyfriend took me here for our anniversary, my first thought of it was that it was a very nice and romantic setting. Our server was amazing, the atmosphere and friendliness was perfect. The hostess was also wonderful. It was our first time at a fondue restaurant and I would definitely recommend it to anybody. Definitely an amazing experience!

This place is pretty amazing, and the format for eating is very interesting. The food was all delicious. It's pricey, but great for a special occasion. Thanks!

We were finally able to enjoy the melting pot for the first time ever! I went with my mom and sister and had an amazing dinner that lasted over 3 hours! We went on Wednesday which is the BFFF special night, which means that we got the full shebang at a special price with extra dippers, or at least that's what I understand it was! We had an amazing waiter who had great recommendations for us that we loved! It sounds like you can't go wrong with whatever cheese fondue you order! The salad was good although unnecessary with the amount of food we were given. My favorite proteins on the entree dish where the teriyaki beef and the chicken! We were suggested to get the mojo broth and we thoroughly enjoyed it! We also used all the dipping sauces which took the meat to a new level! For our chocolate fondue we had a special made chocolate, Snickers and it was amazing! Overall it was a wonderful dinner and a lovely experience for our girls night out! I can't wait to go back and may even headed up sooner for happy hour cheese and chocolate!

Questions & Answers

Anyone know when this restaurant is set to reopen for the full dine in experience? My anniversary is coming up and its our tradition to go to the melting pot and enjoy a movie or some other event together...

Hi Natasha! Sorry for any inconvenience but we are closed due to mandatory San Diego County requirements prohibiting dine-in service unless it is done per takeout, drive thru or outdoor seating. It is a 3 week closure and took affect the morning of 7/7/2020. We hope to open the week of 7/27/2020 but it all depends on the green light from our local and state government. We hope to see you then. Stay safe and healthy! The Melting Pot Team

Why was I charged twice for a one night experience this really gives me a bad taste in my mouth and I now have my reservations on ever going back to this establishment

James Darby | Jul 26, 2019

Might they have charged your card, so it shows pending - - I'd wait two days and see if it updates. You might not actually be charged twice? Dunno just an idea.

how is the melting pot? is the food here good? how long does it take to get in? can the reservation have to be for a seprate day?
