Had to continue to listen to the child screeching next to us. Which kinda put a damper on celebrating my husband’s birthday. A little disappointed by that but everything else was perfect like always

Had an awesome for experience at the melting pot for Veterans Day. Our waitress said this was her first shift working but she gave us a very welcoming and descriptive experience. My favorite parts were the strawberry salad and the turtle chocolate fondue from their 4 course meal.
