Reviews for The Melting Pot in Raleigh, NC
Loved the experience of trying something new and different and taking my girls to an upscale restaurant. Only 4 stars. I can't... qualify this as a 5 star restaurant. For what it actually is and it is very overpriced. My vegetables were forgotten about andthere was no silverware at the table, my grill would not get hot enough to cook as a grill should. It took forever to heat upand actually cook. But overall once we gotten the little things fixed it was fun for my kids. Especially desert. Read more
We hadn?t been here in years, so wasn?t sure what to expect. The food was delicious. Very filling, tasty, and good value. It was... a fun spot to go with family! Read more
Entrance- not clean and looks very outdated- the bar area has no decorations for added ambiance. I felt more like I was in a... Ruby Tuesdays rather than somewhere that was $50 a plate. They used a McCormick Black pepper grinder to grind pepper- invest ina Mill- again the price point does come with expectations. Cool experience and will be that way for the next 10 years. For theamount of money for 3 people to eat, you could go to a really nice restaurant and also get alcohol- the meat that you cookwasn?t great, the best flavor was the duck. Best part was the dessert- flambé chocolate with pecans and caramel. Read more
This is definitely a place that you go to for an experience. The booth they sat us in had a column right in front of it and felt... very cramped. It seemed like an after thought of a table to try and get one more seat in there to make more $$. The food isamazing for sure and I had a good, fun time going out here with my wife. The main downside we experienced was the service. Ittook 15min after being seated for our waitress to get our drink order. By the time our cheese fondue came out, we had beenthere for over 30min. By the time our entrée came out it had been almost 1.5 hours there. They actually brought our broth outway way before the meats and by the time the meat came out our broth was quite reduced by steaming off so much. Everythingtasted great but some of the other tables around us got done with their entire 3 courses before we had finished our entrees, andthey weren't rushing either... All in all we were at the place for just about 3 hours. It was a nice time to relax and talkwith my wife, but we were not expecting 3 hours at all... maybe a little over 2, but not 3. Food was great, service waslacking, seating we got was very uncomfortable for a 3 hour meal. Read more
The cheese is the best part of the whole thing seriously. The food is fine and good bur really it?s more about the experience... which was definitely fun. Our server Olivia was incredible and if this review was for her it would be 5 stars!! Read more
A good place to celebrate! They have small booths, not so fancy, but good enough. The four course meal is seemed like too much,... so we tried the cheese fondue and entree. They have five cooking style, but for two people, even if you have ordered twoentrees, you only get to choose one cooking style. We tried the oil based deep fried one with salmon, shrimp, beef and chicken.It was good, liked the food very much. A single entree is more than enough for two. The cheese fondue was great as well. Thestaffs are friendly. The place is a little pricey for the food. All in all, a good experience. Read more
Made reservations for right at open as we have a little one, seated right away and and had fabulous service. Staff is all... masked. We had delicious drinks to start off. The main bartender is normally not there on Monday but he popped in and he made mymom's drink. Beautiful flow between each course. If you have a little (infant), the bathroom with a baby changing station is notthe main bathroom, just a FYI. It is in the addition, in the farthest back corner. My Mom had never been so it was a fun nightout to treat her. Def not a place from cost to visit on the regular but worth it to splurge if you've never been. Read more
This was a first visit and we ordered the Oktoberfest special. Who doesn't love cheese fondue? Ours was served with brats and... pretzels and other seasonal goodies. The chocolate fondue was "black forest". There was a lot left over when we finished thedippers. I considered just drinking it because it was that good but I didn't want to be rude. It was a bit pricey but it madefor a fun and tasty evening. Read more
