Editorial Review for The Melting Pot – by

In Short
Booths equipped with tabletop fondue pots are clustered together inside the intimate dining room. Start with a cheese fondue, including an assortment of breads, veggies and fruits for dipping. Entrees include lobster, center-cut filet, fish, chicken and vegetarian selections served with a variety of dipping sauces. For dessert, try the flaming turtle, a mix of chocolate and caramel flambéed tableside, served with nut-covered marshmallows, fresh fruit, pound cake, brownies and cheesecake.

My Aunt and I came here for a nice night out. She is very picky and a very hard person to please when it comes to food. By the end of the night, she was almost licking the bowl! The food was soooooooooo good and flavorful. After each course, we could hardly wait to see what was coming up next. The presentation of the food was great. Our server was so nice and helpful and went above and beyond for us. When we first got there my aunt told him that she had never been there before and that she wanted him to give us the full exerience. That is exactly what we got! Everything he suggested was right on. (Thanx Tony) We are already planning our next visit. We wont be going back to to Forever Fondue after this.

Pros: Great Food, Great Service, Great Experience

5 stars! This is the best food I've ever eaten, seriously! The service was excellent. It was well worth the high bill. The only downside is valet parking only unless you want to walk a mile. But again WORTH IT!

Pros: food, service, wine

Cons: valet parking
