I walked over from my hotel as I was staying over before flying out the following morning. It was the day after Christmas and it was BUSY. The food was good. I’m had the chicken pot pie. The ambience was a bit loud because of the holiday - but I don’t fault the restaurant. I mean I would definitely come again next time I’m in Minneapolis. It’s also across from Mall of America

Our server Katie was amazing and funny however we didn’t feel the food was worth the price. Salmon with no real sides just squash underneath it. Only 2 tacos per order.

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
