    Deb likes this place and we were close to this one since we were here for a cruise. Note: they do NOT accept the Yelp 10% checkin coupon. Not sure how Yelp can offer this without the business consent but a manager said no and they have no relationship with Yelp or any other coupon offer. Had reservations and arrived early but we were still seated pretty quick. Table was nice and decorated with rose petals. Our server was great and seemed happy that we were 'frequent shoppers'. Orders in and drinks ordered. However after the cheese and salad course we did wait a long time between courses. So the Wisconsin tirio was really good. So many good flavors. Loved the cauliflower with the cheese the most. Next I had the blue cheese salad with spinach. Delicious! Our 3rd course had steak, shrimp and chicken with all the great sides. Can't complain about the cook as it was us!! Pretty full by the time we got to the chocolate course so that was mostly packed up for later. Love the MP and this one was really good. A couple little things did not take away from our experience.

    Bartender who was a pleasure (sorry I forgot his name) made the experience. He made sure my son & I were taken care of. We got there about 5 mins before HH was over. He got the apps in as well as my cocktail. Most of the cocktails are sweet. I prefer spicy or tangy. The one I tried, I enjoyed. The lobster quesadilla & margarita pizza were both tasty. My son would say the best part of the evening was dessert. Restroom was clean. We'll be back, my son wants to order the cheese fondue.

    Dessert Yummy

    The server was pleasant and explained everything in a way that made the place exciting. we were able to customize our desserts for a wonderful dining experience. I enjoy going for the cheese fondue by iitself, or going for dessert, by itself. This restaurant is a perfect date night restaurant with soft lighting and attention to intimate detail.

    The lighting wasn't great but the filet mignonette and lobster were!!

    We have gone to the Melting Pot for years, usually on our wedding anniversary, across the country from Irvine, CA to Reston, VA and this location was easily one of the best. Make no mistake, it's a fondue/ cook your own kitsch place but if that's what you are looking for this is one of the best. The service with George was so good we will definitely ask for him when we decide to return. The service was great and the food was fresh. Try them on for a change of pace and ask for George.

    Great service every time I've come in! The servers are all so kind and are very attentive! If you want a new neighborhood haunt, they have $6 martinis for happy hour daily and half off cheese fondue! Nick the Bartender is the absolute best! I recommend the alpine cheese and pepper steak on a cast iron as pictured!

    We left soooo full and happy!

    Took my 6yr old son here for a special dinner and he loved it. We requested a private booth which they had reserved for us. The cheese and chocolate courses were great. Love the Yin Yang martini! He had a wonderful time and was the perfect age for his first visit.

We also requested no pork, and had no issues with getting more of another selection instead; we chose extra teriyaki steak. The standee on the table had the cooking times, which was nice because it was that extra reassurance I wasn't going to accidentally undercook! I also appreciated that the descriptions of the sauces were there. My partner went to take a work call outside shortly before our desert got delivered, but Amanda delivered our desert and waited to do the flambé until he got back, which I greatly appreciated. The lighting is lower even during the day, so this still made for a lovely earlier date for the two of us, which was nice since my partner was on call and things seem to be more prone during dinner, so it was still a nice way to fit a date into our week.

Understanding the menu was kind of confusing at first, but our server explained it kindly to us. Since you have to share, I feel like this type of restaurant is best for 2 people at a time. I was with 2 other people and it felt like we were overloading our pot at times, especially during the meats course. The appetizer course was good! The cheese was yummy and I enjoyed the variety of dippers they provided. I was not a fan of the meats course -- by the time they cooked, they were flavorless and watery. Also, some of the meats wouldn't stay on the skewer while in the pot, causing us to search for it. Of course, since you cook it yourself, this could be user error. My favorite was the dessert course. Even though I didn't like the rest of our meal, I will probably be back just to enjoy the chocolate fondue. Service was friendly, but was not quick at all. We were at the restaurant for 3+ hours, and most of that time was waiting for our server to bring us our next pot/dippers. We came on a Wednesday night at around 5PM. Overall, I will be coming back but only for the dessert course.

Everything my family ordered was excellent, from the dense, moist loaf of walnut sourdough to the wahoo entree. Each entree is served on a thick wooden cutting board with an artful array of garnishes for maximal flavor and textures. My vegetarian board was "chefs choice" (you get what you get, no requests or options possible) and it was excellent! It basically had all the fun garnishes and veg components of the other entrees plus whole roasted sweet potato. It was so nice that the veggie board wasn't an afterthought - it had the same level of intention and detail as the regular menu items.

    THIS PLACE IS NOT CLOSED. IT JUST MOVED UPSTAIRS…read more I hope you're ready to read a dissertation, cuz I have a lot to write. lol. This past weekend we got to enjoy a really delicious and fun evening at the East End Market for our friend's birthday. La Femme du Fromage Upstairs is a private dining experience on the second floor of the popular East End Market, just above Domu. Dining here is by reservation only, so make sure to plan ahead. We had a group of 12 people, which was the max capacity this place can hold. This is a personalized dinner and wine pairing curated by the owner of La Femme, Tonda. She and her team took great care of feeding and entertaining us for a little over the 3 hours that we were there. The food was excellently prepared by Chef Dale and our table service was handled by Rob, who made sure our wines and drinks were always filled throughout the evening. Tonda is an expert in wines and cheeses, with over 30 years in the industry, traveling the world to learn the intricacies of both. Every course she brought out, she explained the history of the wine that was paired with it. Every cheese we tried, she explained what animal it was from and how it's prepared. She's such a burst of energy as well. You can really tell she loves what she does. Our first course (which I sadly forgot to take a picture of because I immediately inhaled it all) was a Brie fondue that was infused with champagne, shallots, garlic, and was topped with crab meat. Served with sides of roasted cauliflower, roasted carrots, apple slices, and a tasty crusty bread. (I cant for the life of me, remember what type it was) This dish was paired with a glass of Simonet Blanc de Blancs, a sparkling white wine. Every time I emptied my glass, Rob was nearby to immediately refill it. It was awesome! Our second course was a charcuterie plate of 3 cheeses, fresh blueberries and grapes, and wagyu beef salami. The first cheese presented was a soft spreadable sheep's cheese that was infused with truffle. It was earthy and nutty, and I was blown away by how velvety it was. The second cheese (and my personal favorite) was a coffee infused cow's cheese. I loved it so much that I also purchased a small block of it from Tonda at the end of the evening! The third cheese, if I remember correctly, was a hard goat cheese that was nutty and had a really cool texture when eating. The wagyu beef salami was amazing and paired really well with every cheese. All this was paired with a glass of Mommessin Beaujolais Villages, a fruity red wine. And of course, Rob was always ready to swing by and refill my glass when needed! The third course was a beef tenderloin, served with a side of asparagus and aligot, all topped with a delicious gravy. The beef was super tender, the asparagus still had a nice bite to it, and this was also my first time trying aligot. If you don't know what it is, it's a VERY cheesy mashed potato, and it's AWESOME! lol. This dish was paired with a glass of El Enemigo Malbec, a darker red wine from Mendoza. And yet again, my boy Rob was on deck to keep it coming! (I'm gonna shout out every chance I get) Finally for dessert, we had little vanilla and lemon shortcakes, topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. The cakes were moist and buttery and the strawberries were bright and lightly tart. The dessert was paired with a glass of Vietti Moscato d'Asti, a sweet sparkling white wine. This sweet wine was PERFECT for the sweet spongey cake. It was an absolutely delicious pairing. (And you already know Rob was getting the refill in) For anyone crazy enough to actually read all this. I hope you have the chance to go out and enjoy this place sometime. Tonda has a really special little spot here, and it deserves all the praise it gets. Chef Dale is a master of his craft, the food was amazing. And Rob is a damn good server who made sure we were always well taken care of. We will definitely be back soon, Tonda.
