It's hip to dip at this cozy fondue-lover's paradise. – In Short Booths equipped with tabletop fondue pots are clustered together inside the intimate dining room. Start with a cheese fondue, including an assortment of breads, veggies and fruits for dipping. Entrees include lobster, center-cut filet, fish, chicken and vegetarian selections served with a variety of dipping sauces. For dessert, try the flaming turtle, a mix of chocolate and caramel flambéed tableside, served with nut-covered marshmallows, fresh fruit, pound cak... read more

Great experience with terrific food! – I went here for a bachlorette party for a friend and had a wonderful experience full of ambience and tasty food! I went here again for a new Year's party and found the experience to be as wonderful as before! This restaurant has the best fondue and great service. I would highly recommend it though it is probably better to go to this restaurant for a romanic meal rather than a family dinner. I would suggest making reservations and the meal for two people will likely cost you over $100.

Awesome Date Restaurant – I have to say that I was quite surprised to see the reviews written for this restaurant. My husband and I will find any excuse to go here. We have always had great service and the food is excellent. They have a great wine selection. With regard to cooking times, the food does take a bit longer than the wait staff tells you, however, the times they give are general and can vary depending on cooking style. Plan to spend a decent amount of time at this restaurant, as it is more of an experience than a ... read more

Can not get enough – I absolutely can not get enough of this place. The atmosphere, food, drinks and service are all top knotch. And the best part is.....this restaurant is FUN!!! But make sure to come with a huge appetite because there is enough food to fill you up before your main course even comes and you have to leave room for the chocolate!!! Its the BEST PART!!!!!

Poor quality food, poor presentation, but good service – It's not the raw food per se...its the overly perky Applebee's type wait staff, the poor presentation, the plastic jar of Garlic/Wine powder placed at your table, the dipping sauces, and the quality of the food that is the problem. The place looks nice so thats a bonus, it smelled bad thats not so good. Lets start with the first course. The fondue is mixed by your perky waitress at the table, she was no chef! She stirred and stirred with her little fork (I felt bad). T... read more

NOT recommended – Hey MizMelissa, First of all, when you are writing a review...LEARN HOW TO SPELL!!!.. I agree with DestinyChild...That place is horrible and over priced The Definition of FONDUE is quote: "food dipped into a container: a dish eaten by dipping small pieces of food into the contents of a container usually melted cheese, hot oil, or a sauce, placed on the table" .....It doesn't say it has to be RAW food that needs to be cooked..And as for culture or knowledge of foods.. Different strokes for different folks.. ... read more

Our BEST Anniversary... – We went to the Melting P*t for our first-year anniversary. WOW! The host said "Happy Anniversary", they had roses at the table that my husband had ordered and a card, and the server pampered us the whole evening. We have been locals for about ten years and are excited to see an upscale restaurant make it's way to our neighborhood! Yes it is more than your typical night out (in price and experience!!!), but it is fun and entertaining. Even the bartender tossed bottles around while we waited in the ba... read more
