We celebrated a birthday at The Melting Pot this weekend and everyone got the 4-course meal. We enjoyed the food and the high price didn't bother me (as I noticed it was a comment on many yelp reviews) because it was an experience and you spend around 2 hours at the restaurant. We had the prosciutto & asparagus cheese fondue, everyone got different salads and entrees and then flaming turtle chocolate fondue. Highly recommend the cheese and chocolate fondue - it was the highlight of our meal.

We had one person out of the 4 of us that has a shellfish allergy which we didn't think would be an issue but we had to make adjustments when cooking our dinner. Since we only had one cooktop at our table, we had to cook all of our non-shellfish food first and then cook the shellfish. The 3 of us had at least one or two items that were a shellfish so we had to wait to eat those last. Additionally, I wanted to get the seasonal seafood entree (lobster, shrimp, crab, and scallops) but had to change my entree since it would mean one person would cook and eat their entire meal before I could start cooking my meal. It takes 1.5-2 minutes to cook each bite so it was not going to work out for our table. Since we made a reservation, I wish they would have asked about an allergy or something so we could have gotten a table with two cooktops because we saw other 4-person groups at a two cooktop table and saw an empty two cooktop table. It is just something I know to ask about next time but in case it is your first time all meat cooks in the same pot so be cognizant of allergies.
So I gave the experience 4-stars due to not having a solution for allergies except that one person has to pick a new entree so we can all eat at the same time.
