Editorial Review for The Melting Pot – by Cindy Locke

In Short
Booths equipped with tabletop fondue pots are clustered together inside the intimate dining room. Start with a cheese fondue, including an assortment of breads, veggies and fruits for dipping. Entrees include lobster, center-cut filet, fish, chicken and vegetarian selections served with a variety of dipping sauces. For dessert, try the flaming turtle, a mix of chocolate and caramel flambéed tableside, served with nut-covered marshmallows, fresh fruit, pound cake, brownies and cheesecake.

When to Go

Cooking on forks takes time--something to keep in mind if you've got after-dinner plans. It's a great place for people just getting to know each other or who truly enjoy each other's company.

I absolutely can not get enough of this place. The atmosphere, food, drinks and service are all top knotch. And the best part is.....this restaurant is FUN!!! But make sure to come with a huge appetite because there is enough food to fill you up before your main course even comes and you have to leave room for the chocolate!!! Its the BEST PART!!!!!

I have visited here several times. You owe it to yourself to have a caramel apple martini while waiting to be seated here. Once seated, you won't be dissappointed by the selection of fondues on the menu. On Valentine's day, they only offer a special menu that is the best I have ever tasted. It features an Italian cheese that I wish they served every day. WELL WORTH THE PRICE! On a regular day, I would recommend the Pacific Rim over the other options. The dumplings that come with it are a nice appetizer to the different meats. Make sure to make some stuffed mushrooms as well!! The cheese and dessert fondues delicious! Overall, every experience I've had at this restaurant has been a good one.

Pros: GREAT FOOD, GREAT SERVICE

Cons: COOKING WITH OIL HAS IT'S DANGERS
