    My last visit to The Melting Pot was in 2002, and I’ve always loved the experiential aspect of dining here. The interactive nature of cooking your own food and sharing a meal in such a unique way is something I’ve enjoyed and looked forward to. This time, we had a decent meal with seafood, steak, and vegetables. The food was good, and the drinks were okay. However, the poor ventilation really ruined the overall experience. By the time we left, we smelled heavily of grease and pepper, and it was bad enough that we had to dry clean our coats afterward. This is something I’d expect from a casual sports bar, not a restaurant with this kind of reputation. While I still appreciate the concept, the execution left me disappointed this time.

    Our evening dining at The melting pot in Kansas city was exceptional. Our server Nick did an excellent job of keeping us informed, and food and drink in front of us. And the restaurant manager was very gracious in stopping by and also giving us a gift for our pleasant time dining with them. It was both of our birthday weekend and the whole experience was one of the best we've had anywhere.

    We had a 6 PM reservation and were promptly seated. However, it took about 30 minutes for our waitress to return, so we placed our food order at 6:30. She was friendly and attentive for the rest of the evening, so we decided to overlook the initial wait. Our dining experience lasted nearly three hours for just the two of us. While the peppercorn steak was a bit tough, everything else was fantastic—especially the dessert! We enjoyed the Alpine cheese, land and sea meat, salads, and the show-stopping dark chocolate raspberry explosion. The raspberry dark chocolate dessert was simply divine! We were seated in a private booth at the back, which provided an intimate atmosphere. This location also helped keep things quiet, away from the larger groups closer to the entrance. Overall, the prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of food we received.

    It was the first time ever going here. I just wish I remembered the name of our server because she was great and I would love to recommend her. I went with the four course for two. Food was wonderful and presentation was on point. I would definitely come back again and I’ll update this review with her name.

    Loud conversation level from other diners. Boiled meat really doesn’t taste that great. Room temperature was freezing, goosebumps and shivering whole time. Otherwise had a fabulous time and everything besides the meat was delicious. Our first ever visit—we’ll be back but we’ll skip the meat.
