    We love fondue & you can’t beat the melting pot for making things easy! We placed our orders and our waitstaff was able to swizzle it around to get us the best savings with their different promotions. Every fondue from cheese through chocolate was delicious! I always think I’m going to be hungry after but once again I was stuffed when I left. We will definitely be back!

    We arrived early for our reservation because we had read about Happy Hour at the bar. Absolutely the best deal in town and the lighting was so much better in the bar area!! Lauren was our bartender and server….she was totally amazing!! Lauren was knowledgeable (our last visit was prolly 15 years ago) and we needed a refresher course!! Service and quality were excellent and we had an outstanding evening!! We will be back!!

    It was really good. Our server was fantastic. Really the only complaint was the weird corner booth but it wasn’t that big of a deal.

    We had a great experience. Zoya was our server and she went above and beyond to give us a great time. Also noteable was our greeting by the hostess. She was very professional and courteous. I was very impressed with this location. Food was great, ambience was great, and made even better by the great staff

    Waste of money, no meal was served here, just small appetizers. We literally were served 2 small bites of chicken, steak, and 2 pieces of shrimp . Spent 280$ with tip and drinks. We will never go back . Go to McDonald’s for real
