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.

My husband and I have been to the Melting Pot three or four times now, and we have loved it every time. A great "date" restaurant, the lighting is soft, and the seating is designed to be quiet and private (the best seating, we think, is in the small booths for two in the back...these are tucked into corners so you sit closer together and can cuddle a little). Eating here is an extremely romantic and sensual experience-- the food is brought to you in bite-sized pieces that you cook yourself at the table, so sight, touch, and smell are just as important as the great taste. Don't be surprised if you find yourselves sharing a bottle of wine from the restaurant's excellent wine list and feeding each other these exquisite morsels by candlelight...a wonderful start to a sexy evening for two!
Pros: Romantic, Interesting, Fun
Cons: a bit expensive

This restaurant is fairly good overall, but it is a little overpriced. Also, I thought that the choice of music could be a little bit better, they could play jazzy stuff every once in a while. Loud music can obstruct the romantic and private environment created by dim lights and private setting.
