    Very nice server however it took us 2 hours and 45 minutes to get through lunch. Food was good but I don’t know if they were understaffed or what but it just took way too long.

    Excellent experience! Our server, Jeff, was awesome! The only thing was the lights above the table were way too bright and couldn't be dimmed. Other than that, everything was very enjoyable.

    Overall great experience. Food was delicious as always, waitress was great. Only downside was the front desk was a little chaotic and we ended up having to wait over 20 minutes for our reservation that we made weeks ahead of time.

    This was my First and absolutely LAST time visiting Melting Pot. The experience was ridiculously over priced for the amount of food was brought out for 2 people. The amount we paid for the Valentines Dinner was ridiculous, not very tasty at all. I only enjoyed my salad and cheese fondue. The entree portion was enough for one person. My husband and I was very upset, especially for the amount our bill was. I been better off cooking a romantic dinner at home. Lastly after our entree plates was cleared it took our waiter roughly 30 minutes to bring dessert.

    Paige was hands-down the best server we’ve ever had at the Melting Pot. We hope she never leaves because we’ll definitely ask for her again. The food was great and we left very full!!
