We regret to announce that The Melting Pot of St. Petersburg has closed for business indefinitely as of Monday, April 13. The owners of the property on 4th Street have elected to sell the property. The location was forced to close its dining room on March 20 due to a state ban on dine-in service, and the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the real estate owner’s decision to sell the property. We appreciate the opportunity to have served the St. Petersburg community for over 32 years at this location.

    Our dining experience at Fortu last night was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the ambiance—great lighting, comfortable chairs, and an overall inviting atmosphere that set the perfect tone for the evening. The drinks were excellent, each crafted to perfection, and a wonderful start to our meal. As for the food, it was incredible. We sampled several appetizers, each one bursting with flavor and showcasing the chef’s talent. The entrees were equally impressive—my steak was cooked to absolute perfection, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. My wife had the fried rice and orange chicken, both of which were outstanding. The dessert was the perfect finale to an already remarkable meal. The Ube cheesecake was a standout—it was one of the best cheesecakes I’ve had in a long time, smooth, rich, and with a unique twist. Given the level of excellence in both the food and service, I wouldn’t be surprised if Fortu were nominated for a Michelin star in the near future. We will absolutely be returning to experience this culinary gem again

    Everything was perfect, from the fabulous "Smoke" cocktail to the delicious filet mignon, the scrumptious sides and the fabulous ginger creme brule. The service was professional and efficient but warm and friendly thanks to Sarah. It was a real five star experience.
