    The food was fabulous!! The service was very good. However, the music was so loud in the dining room that we had trouble hearing each other. We requested the dining room as we were told it’s a quieter area.

    Soooo sorry to see you close! We have enjoyed many dinners over the years and just joined you last Friday November 21st with our son for his first time and sadly his last! Was bitter sweet as well since we pulled up, it was completely dark.. no beautiful purple Melting Pot sign .. as if you were in mourning! We enjoyed our last dinner with you (expresso martini seemed to be in mourning as well) the worst one I ever had.. but cheese , steaks and chocolate fondues were amazing as always! Glad our son got to experience a piece of your 39 year history! Doors may be closing but memories will live on!

    A wonderful evening with family and friends trying out some place new. We wanted to try so many menu items we decided to share plates. Everything was delicious! Especially enjoyed the lamb chops. Who knew we liked vegetables as much as we did when presented artfully and flavorful. The desserts were sinfully good. The service was attentive and friendly. The chef came by. The hostess was so polite and sweet. Just a fabulous night all around!
