The ambiance is really set for a date night or a couples evening. We went to celebrate my birthday because that's where my daughter wanted to go for her birthday. She was not disappointed! We had three courses and they were all excellent. We shared various cooking styles and flavors. My favorite was grilling then putting it in the pot to finish it off with some extra flavor. The cheeses were excellent! Don't remember the two we got, but they were excellent! I'm not a big dessert person, but the desserts weren't overly sweet and I even enjoyed them. The service is quiet and attentive. They're great at answering questions and helping with any questions you might have. My highlight was easily my 8yo daughter telling me she was a grilling expert and wanted her own grill at home. She thoroughly enjoyed the hands on approach. read more

We came for an early birthday celebration. It was our first visit, so we weren't sure what to expect. Our server was amazing and very knowledgeable of the menu. The food was delicious. We didn't realize that we cooked the meat ourselves, so it was quite entertaining (especially if you don't have a clue how to cook!). The booths provided privacy, and it provided us with an opportunity to enjoy some family time with conversations and laughter. read more

We love Melting Pot! We have a lot of great memories eating at this chain in various locations. This was our first visit to this particular location. Service was ok. They were slow, since it was a Monday but we were celebrating something. Just 2 of us. So, we were excited to be there. We ordered a bottle of wine & the 4 course for 2. Over $200. The salad course, my first bite had a nasty huge, hair. (See pics) I mentioned something to waiter and he got offended. So, we downplayed the situation so we would not have any retaliation against us. Especially because we still had a couple of courses coming to us. Everything else was fine. But clearly the hair was not from me. I have bleached blonde, straight hair. We were made to feel uncomfortable about reporting the issue. We also went for long periods of time with no interaction from staff. But on my way to the restroom, I found the waitstaff congregating in a closed off area. I wish that when you have an obvious issue, you could in good faith, let the establishment know. Without the fear of some spitting in their food or something similar. read more

Loved our server! He was very knowledgeable and helped my family decide on what to get. We decided on a la carte and a salad for those that wanted one. The salad was pretty disappointing. We were expecting something else but it was kind of thrown together. Our favorite was the spinach artichoke cheese dip. It came with chips and everyone loved it. Wisconsin trio cheese has sherry(?) wine. I liked the flavor but it's definitely a stronger flavor so I wouldn't recommend if you don't like those notes. I was really expecting more from the entree meats. For the cooking styles we chose the coq au vin and the mojo. Mojo was the family favorite. We can say that we finally tried it but won't be back. read more

Went here with girlfriends to celebrate my birthday. It was a very different yet fun experience. The service was great our sever Brad explained everything and how it all worked it was very different the concept of paying to cook your own food is weird though because we did all the cooking. It was fun though we started with cheese dips and then we had our main meat selections with vegetable and you either girl or boil in a pot with delicious broth both options were great after that you get fondue different cakes dipped into your choice of chocolate. It was a lot of food and a fun experience with the girls. Thank you read more

Don't expect to get much food! After years of going here, and always ordering the Bigger Night Out, I was so disappointed in both the quantity of the meat, section, chicken, beef, but also in the 3 -4 ounce ( shell included )lobster that we had to share! After cooking, and resulted in a 1 to 2 ounce piece of lobster! The server was new but did her best to catch up with the many tables that she was assigned! We did have to ask for her several times for water, more dipping sauce, more vegetables, and more broth. Details, such as there were no bananas in our dessert entrée which should've been reviewed before it came to our table. The initial amount of broth was so small that it evaporated halfway through the meal. Even though we asked for the original broth, Bourguignon, she was not able to provide anything other than vegetable broth! I do not feel this meal was worth $140 for two people! That basically ends up being $84 a person with tip! Not worth it! There are so many other restaurants with better quality and larger quantity of food that you can choose for $84 a person! I do not recommend this restaurant Chain if this is the only amount of food and quality that they intend to serve in the future! read more

This was my first time here and I absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming. Our waitress Shannon I believe was hilarious and helpful. We chose the 4 course option, which was more than enough. The cheeses were great eith the pairings-bread, apples,carrots, and celery. I liked the Quattro formaggio better than the spinach artichoke. The salads were typical salads, nothing special about them. Next, was the main course that we cooked in broth ourselves. We both chose the land and sea. Everything tasted great for me except the steak. (I'm not a fan of steak in general). The chocolate fondue was super sweet because I chose white chocolate. It was good regardless. The overall fondue experience was different and nice. I would definitely return. read more

We had an excellent experience here. Other than the fact that some lights were blown out in the area we were seated, everything else went fairly smoothly. We mentioned the darkness issue to our server, and they were able to bring some candles to resolve the issue. We came during Cobb Restaurant Week and opted for the $25 prix fixe menu. We chose a cheddar cheese fondue for our appetizer which came with several side items such as fruits, veggies, and bread. Our server was very generous and brought us extras when we ran out. For the entree, we had a great tasting broth used to cook our chicken, sirloin, and shrimp, along with some more veggies. And finally, to top things off, we got a chocolate fondue to end the night, paired with some additional sides, such as rice crispies, waffles, cake, fruit and more. Our server Kyle was excellent. He explained everything he was mixing, what we were eating, all of the different sauces, and he always brought out anything we needed and did it with a smile. He definitely made our evening much more enjoyable. read more

Had our Anniversary dinner here last night . First time back since pandemic and I must say the food has changed a bit at least as far as quality . If I had known how bad the salad was I wouldn't have gotten it. Very small portion size for the price. Service was just as it used to be, attentive and most of time always there when needed Ambience still with the lights down so it's hard to read the menus to delay the sticker shock read more

A disappointing dining experience. Potatoes served with the entrée were still frozen solid. Smaller than bite-sized meat cuts, with a good amount of grizzle. Drink refills were non-existent. Service was very slow - from start to finish, we were there over 3 hours. At one point of our meal, we did not see our server for over 45 minutes. You'd expect more for a 2-person $170 tab. There are much better places to eat for less money. My wife and I have eaten here a few times, this was by far the worst it's been. We probably won't return. The quality of food and service just isn't there. read more

The Melting Pot is a fondu place. I've never been to a fondu place. I didn't know what to expect. The menu seemed confusing. I wasn't sure what to order. To make thing simpler, I decided to get the 4 course experience. At least that lets you experience all the fondus they had. If you come with a party, each person gets their own set of skewers. The skewers are color coded so you know which skewer is yours when cooking inside the fondu. That's cool. The 4 course experience comes with a cheese course, a salad, the entree, and dessert course. The Cheese course is a cheese fondu. You pick your cheese fondu and they give you a tray of stuff to dip into the cheese. The tray consisted of breads, tomatoes, carrots, celeries, and apples. I tried the Fiesta and the Classic Alpine. They make the cheese fondu in front of you. They basically take the ingredients written on the menu, add some shredded cheese, and call it a day. I thought it was okay. I wasn't impressed with assortment of veggies they gave us. It tasted like supermarket food. The cheese tasted good. I mean, it's a cheese dip. How hard is it to mess up? The next was the salad. I got the California Salad. I liked the Raspberry Walnut Vinaigrette. It gave it a nice, tangy flavor. But in the end, it was just a salad--a pitiful one. They just grabbed a bunch of greens and piled on it on a plate with no regards to presentation. I could've done without this course. The next was the entree. I chose the Steak Lovers since I love steak. It comes with Filet Mignon, Sirloin, and Garlic Pepper Sirloin. With this course, you can pick a broth to cook it in for the fondu. We tried the Coq Au Vin and the Court Bouillon. I realized cooking steak inside a broth doesn't really do much. It saps the flavor out of the steak. Sure, some of the flavor of the broth remains on the steak, but have you tried boiling Filet Mignon to cook it? I rather grill it so the skin caramelizes, instead of boiling it. Also, the portions were puny. The amount of meat they gave were so small, I thought they forgot to give me the rest of the food. I ordered a cold water lobster tail as well. I liked how they cut it up into skewer-able pieces. The last course was the chocolate fondu dessert course. I tried the Yin Yang, which comes with dark and white chocolate. It actually looked like a ying yang symbol when they brought it. I thought that was neat. And we also tried the Cookies and Cream. The cookies and cream was a flambé so it had a cool flaming effect. Oooh. In the end, they were both chocolate. I couldn't tell the difference. The tray they give you were some strawberries, rice crispies, brownies, pound cake, bananas, and waffles. Honestly, this was probably the best course. I mean chocolate and sweets, how can't it get better than this? Our service was so slow. We must have waited 15-20 minutes between the salad and the entree. I was getting bored the whole time. Our server seemed to move at a snail pace. Our server was nice but slow. At the end, our bill came out to $140 for 2 people. Since we ordered drinks, the food came out to probably around $90-$100. I don't know about you, that seemed pretty expensive for the amount and quality of food we got. The price was fancy restaurant tier. But most of the food seemed to have come from Publix. I wouldn't have mind it if it was cheaper, like half the price. But for $140, I could've had a much better meal elsewhere. read more

Took a good friend here for her birthday. It's always a fun experience going to The Melting Pot for special occasions as it is a unique dinner spot and quite delicious. I added the touch of romance to give my friend a rose, rose petals on the table and some candles- it was cute! The service was pretty good overall. Though the price of the dinner blew me away. $170 for the basic 4 course dinner for 2, an alcoholic beverage with the touch of romance on top. The Melting Pot is a great experience like I said, but for $85 a person, not sure if it's all worth it read more

If you're looking for a great date night, this is the perfect place. My husband and I always get the four course meal. We have tried several different things over the years, but here are our favorites. For cheese, you can't go wrong with the Wisconsin cheddar. Don't be afraid to try all the dippers. You'll be surprised what tastes good with the cheese. Both of us love the house salad with the Ranch. Definitely ask for extra of the Ranch and add some of the Melting Pot seasoning. For the main course, we both love the steak lovers. Our favorite sauces is the teriyaki, but there are others that are also great. For dessert, we always get milk chocolate. You can ask for extras or substitutions. My favorites are the waffle pieces, strawberries, and bananas. We've been many times and the service is always impeccable. Tip - if you check in on the Yelp app, you can get six chocolate covered strawberries to go. read more

Will be requesting him next time we go back! read more

Food is always good. However, mid entree they sat a family with no manners next to us. Parents are both drinking while they have an IPAD babysitting their obnoxious children. If I was in Chilis I would get it, but Melting Pot is on the upward of 60-70 bucks a person. I asked to speak with a manager and she states they don't require headphones. Funny because if I had my music blasting on my phone they would have something to say . So they move us ! Only one more table away from the same obnoxious family ! So if you don't mind the dim litghing and relaxing music being ruined by small children and spending that much money than this is your place ! Never again! Which is sad because I've been eating here for 30 plus years ! It's complete BS if you ask me ! read more

The Melting Pot - Just getting started! - Fondue Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

We've always loved the Kennesaw Melting Pot, choosing it mostly for special events like anniversaries, etc. Tonight, though, they lost us. I called maybe two months ago to make a reservation for 09/05/2020 for the big dinner of our anniversary. Then I called a couple of weeks ago to confirm our reservation. All is well, they said. "We'll see you then." But when we arrived at 5 o'clock sharp, there was no record of our reservation & they were booked. The staff was nice & the manager offered to "work you in," but I had had enough & we went elsewhere. I doubt we trust The Melting Pot again with an important date. read more

The food was mediocre. Nothing special in my opinion and over priced. If you want the experience of fondue the I guess this is the place to do it but don't expect to be amazed by the way the food taste. Our course started off with the cheese fondue which was good just not special. I quickly go tired of the cheese flavor and was ready for the next course. The salads we got with decent. I enjoyed my house salad. Next was the main course with the meats. Most of the steaks after cooking them in the mojo flavored fondue came out dry and tough. I enjoyed cooking the veggies and mushrooms in it though. Pasty was the dessert and that was my favorite. It was a pure dark chocolate sauce we dipped brownies, rice crispy lies and cakes in. But I think if dessert is the best part then it isn't a good restaurant. Our servers was really nice though. It seemed like the place had a good staff but just a tad too slow for me. The restaurant also looked nice but a little out dated but still clean. Will not be coming back but maybe fondue just isn't for me read more

What a great spot!!! This was my first time here and it was phenomenal.....from the service, to the atmosphere, to the food! If you've never been here, it's a dining experience! It's a four-course meal, all fondue style. Let me suggest that you get a two-burner table so that you can have multiple options in terms of cheese choices and the bullion cooking. The choices are vast and full of flavor, the turtle chocolate fondue was AMAZING!!!! Our table attendant, Lauren was SOO helpful in making suggestions and ensuring that we had a great first experience!!! We will definitely be returning!! read more

Be sure to sign up for rewards as you can leave the restaurant with dippers berries free of charge. read more

I was invited here as a late birthday celebration by a couple of my friends. We didn't have any reservations, but the place wasn't that crowded either, only 3 of us but we were told that we had a 30 min wait. We could clearly see several empty tables while standing there, about 5 minutes after waiting in the lobby area...... a table popped up ( no one left, I mean where did the table come from???? LOL My guess??? It was there all the time....) So I think I was rubbed wrong from the start, but since this was a birthday gift, who was I to complain. We were seated in a large booth. The place was dark and sorta romantic.It took me a minute to figure out the menu, but once I got it, I got it. I ordered the land and sea three course meal which was steak and shrimp accompanied by a nice glass of wine. The first dish was cheese fondue, with bread and fruit for dipping, the cheese was warm and stringy. My second dish was the entrée, steak, shrimp and veggies, It felt a little funny cooking different foods in one pot like that, But it turned out ok. I don't think our waitress was very happy with us, they wanted us to use the same broth to cook our food in, but my friend has a shrimp allergy and was afraid to put his lamb in the broth that I cooked my shrimp in. The waitress just stood there for a minute in pure confusion. LOL. Then she came out and changed the liquids ( sure she charged him for the new broth, but I didn't ask him). He chose a more spicy kind of broth than the one I ordered. His lamb was really good. My third meal was dessert, creme brulee fondue, which was the best meal of the evening. They brought out all of the bells and whistles with this dish, fresh strawberries, cake & rice crispy treats. Even lit my dessert on fire....... Nice! I probably won't be back for dinner, but I will definitely be back for dessert. Absolute goodness!!! read more

I visited the melting pot for the first time a few weeks ago. Our server was the greatest. He was very new but so attentive to our table. We felt like he could have given us a little more information about how the meal and options worked but we were satisfied with our meal. We would have liked to try one of the other cooking options, we chose the grill, but will do that next time. The food variety was nice and it all tasted good, however it was difficult to cook the vegetables on the small grill since they were just raw and had no seasonings/oil on them. They give you more than enough food on all courses. read more

We made a reservation the morning of Easter through open table. We were quickly seated in a cozy nook for 2. The waiter was super attentive and helpful. For drinks we got mimosas they had that were $5 and very strong! Well worth the money! We ordered the 4 course experience. We started with the old bay cheese, with a wine base. It was so yummy! We both ordered Caesar salads. I had the fondue delight and my boyfriend ordered the classic. Everything was amazing! We used the complimentary cooking style! For dessert we ordered the limited edition French toast milk chocolate fondue--so amazing!!! Overall, the value of food and he quantity is well worth the price! There is plenty of free parking and patio seating for nice days! read more

Very good but very pricey for the portions! Honestly make sure you have 3 hours for dinner because the courses do take a little bit. Last night we were out in an hour and a half which is nice. Our server brought us out our courses pretty timely so we appreciated that. We got the kennesaw special! Green goddess cheese, salad of your choosing, the meat choice is chosen for you but it's wonderful, and an amazing cookies and cream chocolate fondue. It was all very good but I just think the price is very high for the amount of meat you get. Our bill was $127 with 2 beers! read more

The Melting Pot - Charcuterie board! - Fondue Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

Our server, Kyle, was extremely friendly and took great care of us. He explained everything and made our visit wonderful. I do want to say that I think the amount of food provided has dropped, but so did the price, and I think it was an adequate reduction to take into account the amount of food you receive. They used to have "The Big Night Out" which was right around $100.00 for two people. We had the four course meal and only ordered one "Classic" which had two or three pieces of each kind of meat, which me and my husband shared. It was definitely adequate for two people, and the price was around $60.00, and that included me having a drink off the drink menu. Overall, it was a very nice experience. read more

Came here with my beau for Valentine's Day and we were both very impressed. Neither of us had been before, so it was a new experience for the both of us. The setting was completely intimate with dim lighting and lots of room. This location is good sized and comfortable, i.e. the tables are not too close together. The menu is a five-course meal, and it was specialized for the Valentine's Day weekend. Our server was very nice and informative since it was our first time there. EVERYTHING WAS SO DELICIOUS! They had the absolute best shrimp cocktail I've ever had in my life. The cocktail was made in-house and it wasn't the regular marinara sauce. It was clearly made with love, and the shrimp were HUGE! The shrimp cocktail was followed with a cheese fondue. I believe we had the white truffle cheddar, and for the main course they had two options. One included Cold water lobster tail, filet mignon, roasted garlic shrimp, and chicken, and the other included lemon garlic pork, and sirloin. By the time we got to dessert we were extremely full, but couldn't say no to chocolate fondue! So of course, we stuffed our faces with cheesecake bites, brownie bites, banana, marshmallows and the 27 other options they had. We left feeling extremely satiated. It was delicious, and definitely worth the experience at least once. read more

Update note for Melting Pot management. Thank you for reaching out an calling but try reading my full review. I've stated my 2-cents worth, which is only my humble opinion, and I do not want anything for myself, and I am not seeking compensation for the botched evening/experience. I suggest you turn the lights on to bright and carefully look at your facility, fix the multiple issues, and that is it. My evening was unacceptable but fixable. You have a great concept. Thank you for your time. Visit. We were there for a celebration. We were sat at a dual burner booth, a plus. If you've ever been to a Melting Pot, you already know a 1 burner table for 4-people doesn't cut it. Service. Our waiter was happy, and accommodating and we learned throughout the night he was clearly well practiced in the excuse department. We didn't blame him, he's a waiter, not the owner of this restaurant. More to come... Dinner Selections. Between the four of us we ordered two, 4-course meals, Steak Lovers and the Pacific Rim. We started off with the Cheddar and the Alpine Cheese Fondue's, two salads and two desserts for later. We ordered their Tempura batter for both 4-course meals but were informed they were not made yet. HUH? The Tempura batter is the Melting Pot's staple batter. OK. We asked the waiter, can they make it? We're not in a hurry. I mean, Its what? A 2 minute process? Our waiter informed us they would make the batter but it would take 20-minutes. That was fine with us as we hadn't even had the fondue yet. So this can't possibly be a problem, right? As the waiter came out with the cart for the 1st round, we noticed he was struggling with the front burner. Apparently it would turn on but not get up to temperature regardless of what the dial indicated. He informed us many of the stove tops have the same issue or do not work at all. They have 3 or 4 different types of burners but we were at a booth with their oldest units; yeah for us - NOT! How can a restaurant whose theme is for you to cook your own food at your table not have one of two stove tops working? With "many" of the tables having these issues, its pretty clear there is a serious management issue at this location. Cooking Process. As our waiter continued his struggle with the front burner, the Cheddar cheese was bubbling on the back burner but the Alpine was a liquidly mess as it just wouldn't get up to temperature regardless how high the burner's dial was set. This burner issue created issues for the entire meal, a shame, as we were there for the enjoyment factor yet were experiencing a menacing maintenance issue all night. Our food cooking was a constant battle, as we were back to using one burner as the front one was still trying to heat to temperature. During our 2+ hour visit, the Tempura batter never made it to our table. Big Surprise Right? We couldn't give up on the front burner as we ordered dishes that had to be in their own pot. A sad disappointment. Food Portions. We spent top dollar yet our portions were small if not flat out skimpy. The meat portion was too small for the "Steak Lovers" dish and the same for holds true for the Pacific Rim, 2 shrimp, really? Really. The purpose of going to the Melting Pot is the cooking experience but that was an issue on Dec 30th. Our 2 desserts, again, the front burner Creme Brulee was a disaster. What's new there? Cleanliness. This building is in dire need of maintenance. The seat cushions are worn out. Stains on the carpet throughout the place. Stains on the walls and gouges in the drywall. I usually add, share pictures of the foods but this time, I'm adding one picture. That of a bathroom water facet. One of the two bathroom facets in the men's bathroom came up with my hand as I attempted to turn the water on. I laughed at this one. Last Impressions. The entire place is a house of cards. We won't be back until new ownership remodels this location. Oh, the 2nd star is for our waiter. read more

The Melting Pot - Even the sink facets are broken. Avoid this restaurant until the remodel. - Fondue Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

I went into this as my first fondue restaurant experience and had very low expectations, I figured it'd be something you do say you've done it and don't go back again to do. Me and my fiancé both got classic 4 course meals, and it's really more of an experience that your servers the captain and in control of, and let me tell you our server Carlton did amazing. He recommended mixing two sauces which was incredible was fun and upbeat and really enhanced the food. The manager Rob came by our table twice and I honestly felt like we were VIPS or as if we owned the place. Rob also had an awesome recommendation of putting the green goddess dressing on the mushrooms. I really think without these two employees guiding our dining experience that I wouldn't of enjoyed it as much as I did. Now I can't wait to get back and try a different set of courses! read more
