Great atmosphere and a great food! Fun place to visit with a small group or fun couple dinner! It looks like there are a couple of banquet rooms for larger groups. Definitely recommend planning on more time than a normal dinner since you get to cook at the table in the fondue. Lots of choices for entrees, salads, and desserts.

The Melting Pot offers a classic fondue experience that is very fun, especially for new customers. It’s engaging and entertaining, as well as incredibly yummy! The selection of cheese, entrees, style of cooking and desserts was outstanding. I would definitely return, but probably only for the chocolate fondue, as it is quite expensive for the entire experience ($115+ for 2 people vs. $24.99 for 2 people dessert only). The drink menu had a nice variety of options. I settled on the Pomegranate Cosmo and it was very good. My only complaint would be that while we were eating the staff prepped two tables directly behind and beside ours with a bleach spray cleaner that overwhelmed our environment completely. Overall it was a great evening out! Definitely make reservations and allow time to find parking. The restaurant offers a complimentary valet service, but it was full when we arrived approximately 15 minutes before our reservation.

Went here on April 4th 2022 for my Mom's birthday dinner. Our waitress was so very kind and went above and beyond to make sure we all had a wonderful experience there. They even brought out a "Happy Birthday!" Plate in chocolate writing and some chocolate covered strawberries on the plate with it. My Mom thought it was so cute! Everything we had was amazing! Even simple things like ceaser salad that you can get many other places tasted better here. The lettuce was crunchy and fresh, cheese and dressing tasted great, croutons weren't too hard, best salad I could ask for! The Italian soda was mixed just right and the milk chocolate with peanut butter fondue was to die for! I wish I could eat here regularly. Thank you again to our waiter and waitress, both extremely friendly and personable, who helped to make our night and my Mom's birthday one to remember!

Great place for a ladies night. The drinks and hot pot were really good, just not filling. The desert portion was also delicious.

Is there still valet parking with COVID? Or are they opening the valet lot to park in?

Valet parking was operating last night when we visited.

Can we order just one four course entree and share it? Or do we each have to order an entree per person?

True portions are small and so it might not be enough food for both of you

I'm not sure if there is a "published" dress code, but I wouldn't go in there in cutoffs and a tank top. I have worn jeans and denim capris. It is an upscale dining experience and should be treated as such.
