    Was disappointed the waitress did nothing special for our anniversary that was noted in my reservation as well as stated and acknowledged once seated. Will need to consider celebrating our next anniversary, birthdays and date night’s elsewhere since we’re not appreciated at the melting pot.
    Melting Pot - PittsburghResponded today
    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are truly sorry that we missed the opportunity to make your anniversary celebration extra special. We understand how disappointing it must have been, especially when you had made a point to note the occasion in your reservation and mention it to our team upon arrival. Anniversaries and special occasions deserve to feel just that—special—and we regret that we fell short of making you feel celebrated and appreciated. We would love the opportunity to make things right and hopefully welcome you back for a much better experience. Please reach out to our management team directly so we can connect with you. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope you'll give us another chance.

    We made reservations for the child “event” (hallo boo fondue) and were highly disappointed. There was nothing about the event that was geared towards being for kids besides the hostess coming by and sitting a few pieces of candy in the table. Furthermore, It’s been about a year since the last time I dined at Melting Pot and I cannot believe how much has changed. We were given very small portions for the dippers for the cheese, way less than before and had to wait about 15 minutes to get more. The salads were warm.. it was strange because it was a Cesar. Next, the vegetables that we got with entree were less than enough and different than before. We received 5 huge mushrooms, 2 pieces of broccoli, 2 pieces of cauliflower, 4 small pieces of sweet potato (which is new because they used to give white potatoes), 2 baby carrots cut in half and 2 whole Brussels sprouts cut in half. The servers did not come back to the table for 30+ minutes and by that time, my kids were ready to leave so no point in asking for more veggies. Finally, we ended with the dirt chocolate for the kids and didn’t even have enough chocolate to use the dippers provided— even with my child eating all the fruit without dipping. Overall, I was very very disappointed to have paid $125 plus a $20 tip for such a terrible experience.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that your Hallo-Boo Fondue experience fell short of expectations, especially when you were hoping to enjoy a fun, memorable event with your children. We understand your disappointment with the lack of kid-focused activities, portion sizes, food temperatures, and delays in service throughout your meal. This is certainly not the experience we want our guests to have, and we apologize that you and your family left feeling disappointed. Your feedback is important to us, and we will be sharing your concerns with our management team so we can address these areas and improve the experience for our guests. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and would welcome the opportunity to speak with you further.

    The service we had at the Melting Pot was outstanding, very attentive and spent the time to go through everything with my friend who had never been there before. The only issue I had we decided to not go with the full meal of fondue and salad because we felt it would be too much, but the meat and veges should have had a starch to go with it like rice or potatoes. If you didn't like veges you were basically just eating meat or seafood for your main course. It just felt boring like it was missing something. The dessert fondue of Banana Foster was delicious though, portion size could have been a little bigger, but it was a great way to end the evening.
    Melting Pot - PittsburghResponded on 26 October 2026
    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re so happy to hear that our team provided outstanding, attentive service and took the time to make your friend’s first Melting Pot experience enjoyable. We love helping our guests feel comfortable and making every visit special! We also appreciate your honest thoughts about the entrée options and portion sizes. We understand how having a starch option could help round out the meal, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with our team. We’re delighted that you finished the evening with our Bananas Foster chocolate fondue and that it was such a delicious highlight! Thank you for dining with us, and we hope to welcome you both back for another memorable fondue experience soon!

    My wife and I love it there. Always an amazing time! I will admit, it can be costly. After dinner for two ($140), a couple of drinks (about $20), a couple of upgrades I added (about $25-$30), service, and tip we were about ~$230 total. I will say that the experience is super nice every once in awhile, though! I took my then girlfriend there for our first Valentine's Day date. Yesterday, my now wife, and I went there for our first anniversary of marriage. Our server Dustin was very knowledgeable, and we had great service! We definitely recommend!

    Thank you for the lovely review. We are glad that you and your wife enjoy celebrating special moments with us. We appreciate your honesty about the cost, and we are happy the experience, the knowledgeable, attentive service, and the memories made were worth it for your anniversary. Thank you for recommending us, and we look forward to welcoming you back.
