The Melting Pot is absolutely absurd for dinner, in my opinion. The way that they sucker you in to cook your own food for such an outlandish price is beyond me. However, I will say that dessert is absolutely magic. How could you not like dipping marshmallows, strawberries, bananas, and other sweets into piping hot chocolate, graham cracker crumbs, and other viscous concoctions?
The location is pretty awesome. I really like how it's tucked into King's Corner and is a little nondescript.
Here's my thought -- Go for drinks and dessert. Dinner can be held/enjoyed much more elsewhere.
