Bring your big appetite to the big city. In downtown Minneapolis, The Melting Pot is your quintessential fine-dining restaurant. Start with freshly made salads and handcrafted dressings before you skewer succulent strips of steak, and finish the smorgasbord with our famous chocolate fondue. Desserts rank high here, and just like the complex taste of our entrées, there’s something to be said of our artisan cheeses and luscious chocolates. But in our cozy corner of dessert paradise, we’re more than just a classy addition to Minnesota’s culinary scene. We are casual and approachable, which makes us an excellent choice for reconnecting with long-lost friends, updating loved ones about your life, or simply breaking the ice on a romantic date.

    Amazing ability to prepare foods for any dietary restrictions and needs. Best in town. Fun adventure for pre-teens and teens to learn how to grill and fondue as well as a variety of tasty options to eat. Server was kind and took care of all our needs and wants. It appeared the restaurant was understaffed because our server disappeared for fairly long intervals.

    Went for 10 year anniversary and unfortunately was one of the worst meals my wife and I have had. We left halfway through the main course and cancelled the dessert portion of the meal. Weren’t offered anything when we let server know how are experience was and were told a manager might contact us. Lots of great restaurants nearby would recommend staying away from here to avoid a disappointing experience like we had.

    Way over priced. Food is mediocre at best. The variety is not good. Veggies were shocking how little portions and the fact it was small potatoes like four, zucchini and ten mushrooms. Save your money and go to a hot pot restaurant

    Our favorite anniversary spot has been with this melting pot for the part couple years. This particular night they ran out of bread for the cheese course. But they went above and beyond to make that up and make our anniversary special. The manager and our server were both amazing people. 10/10 recommend

    This was my first experience at a fondue restaurant and our server checked in on us often and guided us through, even offering to take a picture of us. It was a cold, quiet evening made warmer by excellent service and food! I loved the whole experience.
