    This is the 5th or 6th time we’ve come here - the food and service were great as usual. The mother’s day menu was a bit pricy for the amount of food we got, but overall worth it for the experience. My main complaint though is that almost every time we’ve come, including today, we’ve had to wait ~20-30 minutes after our reservation time to even be seated. Not sure if they’re intentionally overbooking reservations or need to assume a longer turn time for parties, but it’s frustrating, especially since it meant we had to rush our dessert course to get our kid home for bedtime. In future we’ll probably plan to make our booking for 15-30 minutes earlier than we actually want to.

    Our server was phenomenal. Very knowledgeable and very nice. We’ve been going to the melting pot in Charlotte for years. Unfortunately the quality of the food at this place was just not very good. The meat was tough and we had some really fishy Samon and tuna. The cheese appetizer fondue was good as was the dessert fondue but our main course for the price was less than average..

    Tessa, thank you for dining with us and for the kind words for your server. We're sorry to hear that the entree wasn't up to your - or our - expectations. Our GM will be reaching out to you to discuss your visit soon. Again, our apologies. Best, Melting Pot

    Good experience overall! Just don’t sit at the end of lovers lane if you don’t want to hear “corner” every minute. Food was fantastic as always. Don’t forget to buy the garlic and wine seasoning for your home and use it on everything!
