on Citysearch Jul 30, 2009We were very disappointed in the service. Although our waitress was courteous and attentive, when I asked "So that will be $90.00 (for the Big Night Out order)?" She answered "Yes, but that's for everything." I took... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 29, 2009I went to the restaurant in Minneapolis, MN last weekend without a reservation (as I had done several times in the past). In my party, there was a conservative lady wearing an Islamic head scarf. As we were greeted at... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 19, 2009There have only been 2 occasions in my life that I have been angered by a restaruant, and this is one of them. NOTHING WAS FRESH. NOTHING. This is the $90 dinner for 2: We chose the Fiesta Fondue: comes with a handful... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 04, 2009I like to try new things, but sometimes it turns out bad. My family decided to bring my mom to the Meltingpot for a birthday celebration, and made the reservations informing the restaurant that the dinner was for a... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 23, 2009Last summer was the first time I'd eaten at this restaurant outside of the Chicago area. I am NOT new to this restaurant, this style of dining, nor am I new to dining out in general. I am what one would call an experienced... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 04, 2008I don't get the negative reviews I just read below this. My friends and I go to the meltingpot at least once every two months and we always have a great time. The staff are very entertaining and knowledgeable with thier... (more)

on Citysearch May 19, 2008I was in a large group, we had gotten reservations a while before (which, by the way, we were given the run-around on) and we had specifically told the event coordinator that we needed separate checks and had circled... (more)

on Citysearch May 18, 2008I was in a group who were all looking forward to a night out with fondue, but I wish we'd found another fondue restaurant. While the food was good, the service was the worst I've ever had. Our waiter (Eric, as another... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 04, 2007First let me start off by saying my first and only visit was okay, however, the food was pricier than expected and 6 of us dined at a long booth with only two pots, which not only made it uncomfortable to dine (when you have... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 14, 2007My fiance and I stopped in for dinner last night, we didn't make reservations although have heard that we probably should on weekends. I figured Tuesday night wouldn't be so hectic & it wasn't so we had no problems... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 05, 2007This restaurant can take reservations, they just don't know how to hold them. We ended up waiting an extra 20 minutes to be seated after arriving on time for our reservation. Hostesses were rude, unfriendly and... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 15, 2007My wife and I went here last night to use our Entertainment book coupon, so we just got single entrees instead of the big night out. I got the steak and shrimp and she got the chicken. I didn't get a ton of meat, but it was... (more)

on Citysearch Nov 07, 2006I've been to Melting Pots in other cities and this one is subpar. The drinks are over-priced and the food isn't very fresh. Our oil never got hot enough and the fruit was not high quality. I gave it a four just in case I went... (more)

on Citysearch Aug 02, 2006I do not understand why this restaurant has the high rating that it does. I am only glad that I went there for lunch and spent $18 instead of the $150 that others write about. We got the cheese fondue for lunch, 6 apple... (more)
