"I decided to take my wife to this location for our anniversary. I can tell you that the 90 minute drive we had just to get to the restaurant was well worth it. The amount of food looked small for the price, however, you do not leave there feeling hungry. My wife and I will regularly drive 60 minutes for a nice dining experience, and now will drive another 30 minutes to return to this location."

"Our waitress was incredibly rude to our table due to the fact that we were dining on a groupon that we purchased. She tossed drink napkins at us, flew through our options and did so with disgust on her face and voice. Almost walked out right then but the group on was expiring. The food is okay, but not worth the time and effort, I'd rather pay to get a good steak at a nice restaurant. Dessert is great! Bottom line, we won't be back, groupon or not.."

"I thought the prices were pretty high for what we got and we were charged double for one of the items (didn't realize until later). The prices are double what they were a few years back. I noticed the desert portion was very small, but it was still tasty. Overall, the food is good.
The menu is very confusing, it's hard to know what the prices are until you get your bill. Couldn't do this very often because of the expense."

"My fiance and I tried The Melting Pot for the first time, and we absolutely loved our experience! We liked having a more private table for two while we ate. It was fun to try the different foods offered to us. Our favorite was the dessert! Our waitress was incredibly nice and helpful. She provided some of the most outstanding service we had ever had! The food came to us very quickly and we didn't have any problems with it. Overall, we were very impressed!"

"We always ask for Jenna, who is a great server and always treats us great, but all of the staff and management are excellent. Great place for family fun or a nice night with someone special. My wife and I go there on special occasions, but also take our 4 year old there for a treat. He loves the idea that he is cooking his food. Though the chocolate and cheese fondues are outstanding and what most people think of... the cooking of your own meat and their salads are just as good. We never leave the place hungry. We are regular patrons and recommend The Melting Pot to all."

"I have eaten at several Melting Pot restaurants. They all provide superior customer service, excellent food and a fantastic wine list. The atmosphere in all of them has been designed to make you feel cozy and secluded while being around many other diners. It is a great place to go for a romantic date night or even catching up with old friends. I will continue to recommend Melting Pot restaurants to anyone that asks."

"We were not seated when we arrived on time, which was at 6:00 so we went to the bar and were initially unnoticed then as soon as our drink order was taken we had to cash out because the hostess was ready to take us to our table. Our server was terrific but at the Dayton Melting Pot we were told we needed to choose our entire four course meal right away. I had eaten dinner at the Cincinnati Melting Pot a few weeks prior and I had a much more relaxed time there because we were permitted to order the courses gradually...after cheese fondue, we selected our salad and discussed which entree' we'd like while eating the salad and the same for the dessert. Dayton wanted all the answer's in the first few minutes."

"What a unique experience! I requested a secluded booth for our date night. We were seated in our own sectioned off booth. It was like our own tiny little room. Fantastic! Very accommodating to my request! Our server was quirky and fun. I would have preferred more silent service during our romantic evening. However, steps of service were on point. I highly recommend the Melting Pot."

"Our server Norma was excellent! This was our first time visiting the melting pot and she helped to make it a great experience! The next time we visit though we will be requesting to sit in the more romantic cubbies tucked away toward the back. We didn't notice these till we were already seated and liked our server so much that we didn't want to ask to move but next time we would like to be seated there, it's probably something the hostess should suggest to all couples."

"I took my daughter and boyfriend out for her 21st birthday and our anniversary dinner. The food was wonderful and fun to fondue, even for the newbies in my party. Our waitress was wonderful and very helpful to explain what would be good ideas. With having the four course like we did it gave all of us a chance to pick a special food for everyone to try. We felt like we were in our own area with the high backs to the booths so we could talk and not feel like we bothered anyone else."

You never felt like you were waiting, we got the 4 course combo and everything was delicious.

"I would love to come back, but only for the cheese and chocolate fondue. With six of us, and so many sticks, food kept falling off, the oil and broth cooled too much and it took too long to cook, then we'd forget and our meat got tough! Little timers for the meat? Hard to keep track and talk too! If two of us, maybe the meat. The cheese and chocolate was incredible, the food to dip was plenty and fresh, delicious! Loved those very much! Was disappointed in the amount of cheese for six in the pots. We went through them pretty fast. Would of liked little signs or markers on the all the sauces, hard to remember what was what. I loved that we were early and our table was still ready! Love the coat check too! Thank you!"

"We went to MP the day after Valentines Day to celebrate. Our server brought us the wrong cheese but we just ate what he brought. Then a family of 6 with a newborn, and I do mean newborn, baby came and sat next to us. Who brings an infant into a romantic restaurant? I was surprised MP allowed them to do that. Anyway, the meat was very mediocre, the service was okay. We go to MP for the ambiance and the experience. It typically takes us 3 hours which we enjoy. We left in an hour this time. Screaming newborns aren't romantic."

"My husband and I were disappointed that we couldn't receive our complimentary strawberries. I had my certificate and called ahead but were told when we got there that we couldn't have strawberries and use our military discount on our meal. This doesn't make sense, complimentary is a gift for free.
The service was excellent, the individual, named David?, was super, kind and enjoyable.
thanks again..."

"Our experience couldn't have been any better! We reserved a quiet little booth on Lovers Lane. It was very romantic! Our server Randy was just wonderful and so accommodating. He did not miss a beat! He was there at every turn either filling our glasses with the excellent wine he chose for us or checking on us to see if we needed anything. The food was awesome! We were so full by dessert but when we saw the chocolate and all the goodies that came with it, we finished it all! The music was even perfect! We will definitely be going back!"

"The food was great, the service pretty good. The only thing I could complain about is how long it took to get seated. We had a reservation for 2 at 8pm, but didn't get seated until around 8:30. We decided to wait at the bar... which was about half full (6 people). There was one bar tender for the entire restaurant. And it was obvious that her focus was on drinks for the seated diners, NOT the people sitting at the bar. We sat there for 15 minutes and she did not even take our order. That was pretty disappointing."

"I had never been to a fondue restaurant, but our server was very informative and patient with us. We generally took her recommendations, and were very pleased with her suggestions. When the four of us were hesitating over getting the "entree" course (raw chicken, shrimp, beef and vegetables that you cook in the fondue pots at the table), she suggested that we order two of the courses and split it among the four of us; this worked out perfectly.
We were at a larger booth with two cooking pots, so we were able to try some extra variety that we would not have sampled had there been only one pot.
The Smores Chocolate was outstanding, I highly recommend it."
