| - We went to The Melting Pot the day before Valentine's day, we had to sit at the bar because all tables were reserved - which I didn't mind.
I was under the assumption that you had to order the full prix menu (it appeared that people were coming in to bar and just having cheese or chocolate- no big deal we wanted the full experience anyway!) of cheese, salad, entree and dessert - it surprised me it was so pricey $110 for 2. We figured it was worth it and ordered our cheese (crab - very horseradishy - which we love), salad - Strawberry Almond - excellent!, entree was combo platter of filet, lobster, shrimp, marinated chicken, marinated strip steak, salmon, ravoli & vegetables - with the oil - all the meat, sauces were excellent. The least spectacular course was unbelievably the chocolate lol - we got the Raspberry Milk chocolate and it was good but I guess I would have enjoyed a dark chocolate one more - the assortment of dippables was very good - cheesecake, rice krispie treats, strawberries, marshmellows etc.
All in all it was an excellent experience and meal - my bf and I love cooking together so it was not overwhelming for us - (I did over hear other people who were a bit confused or over whelmed though) We will be back for another special occasions and the experience has inspired us to try it at home too! Our meal with bottle of wine and tip topped out at $160.
