Mac and Five cheese fondue. Omg so good
Sylvia H.

Restaurant Week is still going strong, and we were so excited to finally try The Melting Pot. My kids absolutely loved the hands-on experience--from appetizers to dinner to dessert--it made the whole meal much more fun. We originally didn't plan on getting dessert since they served us so much delicious protein that we couldn't finish it all. But in the end, we gave in--and wow, it was worth it! My daughter is already asking to come back for her birthday! The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making sure we had everything we needed. And even though the restaurant was packed when we left, the booths made it feel cozy and private. Here's what we tried: Mac and Five Cheese Fondue Chicago Deep Dish Fondue Caprese Salad Meat Lovers Fondue Vegetable Fondue Chocolate Explosion Birthday Cake (a must-try!) We have to come back to try the different cooking styles for fondue! So far, we've had Mojo and Cast Iron Grill, but next time, we'll be trying: Coq au Vin Court Bouillon Bourguignonne If you haven't been to The Melting Pot yet, put it on your list! It's such a fun and unique dining experience--perfect for a special occasion or just because.

Finally tried The Melting Pot during the 2025 Inlander Week Event! The food and drinks were a 10/10, absolutely delicious with no complaints. Cooking at the table made it interactive and fun, perfect for families or date nights. Spokane needs more spots like this! Common guys!!! Excited to come back and try their regular vegan menu. Wish more restaurants here offered one, shoutout to Twigs Bistro for having one! Plenty of tasty mocktails too. I had the blackberry citrus one, which reminded me of Clinkerdagger's drinks. Some drinks even come with gummy bears, like the Shark Nibble. Woohoooo candy :D

Veggies and Bread with melted Cheese for dipping

Our first time ever at a fondue restaurant. This place hit the mark all the way around. But beware of one thing, they give you A LOT of food. Unless you're willing to eat a lot, you may want to get service for two or three if you have a party of four. Other than that, the service was great, the food is fantastic, and the ambience is really nice. Highly recommend going there on a date night or just a casual night out with friends.

Definitely fun place to bring friends or ur other half! We went during happy hour which is only available at bar side ( 21 y.o and older) which made the fondue all half off! Pretty fun experience especially being my first time! Food was very simple, not meats which I was kind of sad but basic foods like bread, fruits, veggies to dip into the fondue! They also gave us more fruits to finish off the chocolate fondue

Yin & Yang Chocolate Fondue completely finished

I've been here three times with my girlfriend and it never disappoints. The service quality is absolutely amazing, our server this time was Dakota and he brought a great atmosphere to our night. The food was delicious as always. A great way to spend my Valentine's Day. If you're okay with spending a little then I definitely recommend you come here.

Cesar salad
Brittini B.

Went out to melting pot on a double date to celebrate and had an amazing experience at the melting pot. It was my first time there and I wasn't entirely sure of what to expect. We were there for almost 2 hours for a 4 course dinner that (with some drinks) cost about $260 for 2. The cheese, broth and chocolate fondue are assembled right in front of you which was very cool. The little hot pad in the middle of the table keeps the kettle hot and melts the cheese/chocolate and keeps the broth hot enough to cook the proteins. There are so many options of proteins and cheese. Can't go wrong with any of them!! It was a very cool experience and the food was very fresh and delicious and the drinks (especially the sweet tart) were absolutely delightful.

The Melting Pot was a good New Year's Eve choice for dinner. The food was amazing. The service was top notch!! It was my boyfriend's first time there and he loved it!!

I can't imagine WHY anyone would give this place less than 5 stars. I've been here many times and it's always great food. I'm gluten free and dairy free (not by choice) and they are always accommodating. For the most part all of their servers are knowledgeable about what contains dairy and gluten as well. It's one of my favorite restaurants!

S'mores dessert

Easily one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. The meal selection was fantastic while the s'more's selection was easily one of the best desserts I've ever had. Our server was very kind and informative. The price is kinda expensive, but worth every dollar.

Don't do it! Horribly expensive for very little portions! Food has NO flavor. It was an overall bad experience.

Fancy like....date night. This was our first time here and we immediately fell in love. We made…read morereservations online and our hostess sat us immediately at a cute table next to a wall that we had all to ourselves. The lighting is cool here and the fixtures have a MCM vibe. It truly added a romantic charm to our date night. The restaurant is done in wood with clean lines. Now let's talk about the goods. The menu is the perfect size. We found many dishes we wanted to try but knew we weren't hungry enough to order them all today. We were told the gorgonzola fries are a must. I'll clarify by saying they are crucial. Yes. Crucial enough to be ordered at every meal. So either as an appetizer or with your meal. The waffle fries do an excellent job at being the carrier of all the cheesy goodness. They were crisp and so flavorful. I now call these "High Five Fries" because that's what I felt like doing after every bite. Next was the beet salad. I'm still digging beets everywhere I eat. These were lovely. Both red and gold, tossed with this delicious citrus dressing on a perfect bed of greens. The bourbon soaked cherries were so divine. They added a pop to my salad I never knew I needed. We decided by having salads we of course saved room for dessert. The beignet dessert was the chosen one and it felt like getting powdered up for a fancy night at the opera. I can't sing enough praises over the chewy fried dough texture, the perfect mess of powder sugar all over our table, the sauce on the plate and the jam to dip. We literally ate them all. I think even Cafe du Monde in NOLA would give a chef kiss. Our server was friendly and checked back often. Our food came up so fast....even during the busy 6pm hour. What a beautiful place. We will be back to try that tofu dish soon and hopefully some Creme Brule next.

I liked the mix of casual/nice atmosphere. The offerings are a tad nicer than your typically family…read morerestaurant, and delicious but not over the top. You can dress up or wear jeans here. Friendly service wins my heart every time. - the butternut squash soup was AMAZING!! So creamy, buttery, flavorful, HOT. Perfection! - a good old fashioned! - save room for the dessert beignets!! Warm, melt in your mouth, light and airy. - was excited to see the portobello mushroom burger on the menu- flavorful and a tad messy. - the calamari has an Asian flair. Points for being different and delicious, but the calamari was small and you don't get very much. I liked the slaw. Lots of slaw, little calamari. Cons: The burgers were overcooked but still went down . The bottom bun was very overcooked...a bit too hard for our liking.

We were told that was not available. We were very disappointed and swore we would not come back, because it also involved the attitude of the server, which was extremely arrogant. Then I took my mom to Mother's Day brunch. The only good thing about it was they were able to see us right away. They sat us next to a fireplace that was screaming hot when it was already 70° outside. We asked to change seats and I watched the servers argued amongst themselves. We sat down just my husband and I while we waited for my mother and her husband. We ordered drinks and it took 15 minutes to get them. I understand it was Mother's Day and it was busy so I let it go. My mother arrived and we obviously ordered the Mother's Day brunch, and we were never told that they would bring us plates eventually we were told we had to go pick up plates, which was fine. When we went to go get our plates at the buffet, there were no plates available. We had to wait at the buffet for five minutes before they brought us plates. It was very uncomfortable. When we got back to our table 20 minutes after we had arrived, we still had to ask for silverware. After that, we were never offered another drink or a refill on water or ice. There was no question offered to us in regards to how our food was and whether we were doing OK or not. And after a $75 gift certificate, I still ended up paying $280. This is unacceptable and if you're charging someone that much money, your service should be top-notch, but that is not how it turned out to be.

Overall, I was a little surprised by the experience. When I arrived, it seemed quite busy, but service was slower than expected. It took about 30 minutes to even receive a straw for my water, and there was a noticeable delay in getting basic table service. It felt like they may have been short-staffed, which could explain some of the wait times. I also never had the chance to mention it was my birthday when I was seated, and in the past at other restaurants, I've usually been asked if I was there for a special occasion. I only ended up mentioning it while checking out, and the staff member did kindly say happy birthday at that point. As I was leaving, I overheard that this location may be closing soon, which would help explain the overall experience and slower service. I still appreciate the intention behind the visit and the birthday reward, but this experience felt more rushed and less attentive than expected.

However they used a tea light under the crafty little fondue plate and the candle kept going out, making the cheese hard. However, we were on the patio and it was windy and we still ate it all.
