Came here while visiting to try their new 5 course premium menu for an early birthday celebration. They also always send me a birthday coupon for chocolate covered strawberries, so I was able to get those during this visit. We tried the new Octoberfest Beer Cheese, which was amazing. Their bacon Parmesan peppercorn salad was really good too and I bought the garlic wine seasoning to take home. The dessert was very fun! We got the dark chocolate raspberry with red velvet cake and a fire cracker on top! Our service was exceptional! We had a great waitress!

We took our 12 year old granddaughter to The Melting Pot to celebrate her birthday. The staff went above and beyond to make her night a special one. Their birthday cake had a sparkler on it! We enjoyed sampling from their ample menu and sharing the eating experience. A wonderful choice for celebrating...anything.

I came with my wife and my 2 kids to have some family time and build some memories. I have to say that the experience was indeed memorable. !!! . It was different as the server prepare all the food in the 2 burners we had on the table. Great cheese appetizer, salad, then meat and finally melted chocolate with and array of sweets ready to dip ! Kids loved it, my wife and I enjoyed it. That was the good part. The problem for me is that I don't see me coming here again. The cost was about $220 for all 4, I could pay that once due to the wow factor but now that you know what to expect then the food by itself is not worth that much. I could eat almost anywhere really well with that much money. But as I said if you haven't tried it before then go for it, you need to try it once. Ambiance was ok, carpet looked a bit old and de or seemed a bit outdated though so there is some room for improvement. FYI I am rating it with 4 stars only for first visit.

This is our traditional birthday celebration spot, and this year it was a 21st birthday. As always the food was very good, and the service was exceptional for this special event (from a new server, who's entering UNC in the fall... go 'heels!). The dining pace is always pleasant and relaxed. The Melting Pot introduced a new special: "unlimited entrée". With the excellent food, that sure sounds like a great deal... but we have never left a standard meal anything but pleasantly stuffed, so I can't imagine a second helping! Their prices have climbed significantly, but the quality and experience are still worth the trip for special occasions.

We went for my daughter's birthday and really enjoyed the experience. We had steak, and chicken. We ended our meal with a peanut butter chocolate bowl with strawberries, banana, and marshmallows. Relaxing atmosphere, and great drinks specials.

Our party of 11 visited the Melting Pot to celebrate my mom's birthday. When you have a large party you have to fill out a "large party agreement" and select all your food in advance. This has positives and negatives. On the positive side you can choose for your first course cheeses to be on the table when you arrive. This is great when you have small kids and hungry adults. Cheeses were a big hit with all of us. I chose the cheddar and the queso thinking it would be a regular one for the kids and a spicy one for the adults but it was not spicy at all. Cheeses are served with breads, fruit and chips. Next course was salad. My only complaint about the salad is that you had to choose the same one for every member of your party. I chose the California because it seemed most interesting. I loved it but about half our party did not and would have preferred a Caesar or House. Third course -- the meats. We ordered the land and sea which was steak, chicken, shrimp and salmon. It worked well with our big group because we could swap and share preferred proteins. This course also came with broccoli, potatoes and mushrooms. I ordered the Court Bouillon and Mojo broths. Bouillon was pretty boring but Mojo was good. Also, the waiter brought out six different sauces to dip your meat in. Grand finale was the chocolates. I ordered the original thinking the kids would like that one best and the cookies and cream. Everyone preferred the cookies and cream and the kids really enjoyed roasting their marshmallows over it. The chocolate came out with cake, fruit, marshmallows and Rice Krispie treats to dip. They also brought my mom a small piece of cake with a macaron and cream puff. Overall, was it the best food I've ever eaten? No. Was it a fabulous experience that all ages enjoyed? Yes. Service was great as well. Fun spot for special occasions.

I've never been here before and I came to celebrate my birthday!! It was was different and very good, you get to cook your own food and they leave a list at the table with cook times, our waitress Emily was fantastic and talking to her was like talking to one of my friends. It was such a great experience my only issue is the fact that I'm in a wheelchair and their bathroom was non handicap and I had to wait till the end of my meal to go elsewhere for a restroom.

This is a good place to celebrate birthdays or anniversaries or just to have an intimate date night. Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday and it had been quite a few years since the last time we came. It is just as I remember it. If I have anything negative to say, it would be that it's time for the chain to get an update. I get the intimate feel but I think the decor is too dark and drab. Our server was Simon. He did a fantastic job of refreshing our memory in regards to the menu and offering suggestions. He didn't try and upsell us and checked on us enough to not be a bother. Management was also on the floor making sure everyone was having a good experience. Overall we would return, especially if they updated the place. But it might be another few years before we decide to go again.
