Melting Pot - Bellevue (WA)

5 /5 The G in Guide: Celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday and it was perfectly lit for romance. Highly recommend the Pacific Rim selection of seafood for the tasty Mojo broth. The cheese fondue was superb and the chocolate fondue was a blast! We got sprinkles for all of the sweets. Staff is very nice. Great for date night!

5 /5 Suellen Siqueira: I took my mom and aunt to The Melting Pot for a girls’ night out. My mom has knee issues, so I dropped her off at the entrance while I parked. By the time I got inside, they had already been seated in the middle of the restaurant. I asked if we could move to a more private side booth, and the manager, Dave, personally came over and helped us move. He was extremely friendly, welcoming, and made us feel so comfortable right from the start. Our server, Will, was fantastic! He was patient, kind, and very respectful of the fact that my mom and aunt don’t speak English. I had to translate quite a bit while he explained everything, and he handled it all with grace and a great attitude. The food was amazing — every course was delicious — and the drinks were strong (in a good way!). We had such a fun time and left completely full and happy. Big kudos to the new manager Dave and to Will for making our night so special. Highly recommend this place for a great experience and outstanding service!

5 /5 Brian Carter: Sami who was both our bartender and server was fantastic and extremely personable and sweet. Dave, one of the managers clearly cares not only about hospitality and service but about each guests personal experience. They were slammed by multiple large groups and we had to wait an extra 30 minutes for a reservation but they were so accommodating and they comped some of our drinks. Dave even walked us outside. They make you feel like family with fine dining.

4 /5 Angie Lovins: The Food was great. Our waiter Will was one of the nicest Ive had in a while. Even when he messed up, he was straightforward and didnt try to cover it up. He was super nice, very fun to be around, and overall an excellent waiter. 11/10 waiter. The hostess who we interacted with was curt, and didnt seem to know what she was doing. When her boss was around she was a whole different person and didnt treat people who dont have reservations like trash. She hardly did her job. 1/10 hostess. Once was got past the hostess, it was a very casual and overall fun experience. Whole experience was 8/10. -From the child who managed to aquire a phone

1 /5 Hayley: We went on Christmas Eve night to celebrate a birthday and the holidays and unfortunately our experience in the beginning ruined the meal. We had a reservation for 8pm and checked in promptly. We ended up waiting about 55 minutes for a table. While we understand that it’s busy and a holiday, it was also really upsetting. I think we checked in with the hostess 2 times throughout the long wait and she was curt in those interactions. When we finally got seated, it was at a 4 chair table and there was an open 4 person booth right behind that table and so we asked the hostess if we could be put at that table instead and she said “there’s no changes, you’ll sit where we seat you”. We were absolutely blown away. While our server was fantastic and friendly, it did not make up for the interactions with the hostess and the 55 minute wait. Part of our food or drinks were not even compensated for the long wait which was disappointing. The food was good, though for the amount of cheese it’s not much bread you’re given. We ordered both the alpine and Wisconsin cheddar and both were very good, 4/5. The dessert was fine, we got the pure chocolate 1/2 dark and 1/2 milk. The dipping options were VERY rich (chocolate chip cookie, pound cake, brownie) and I would’ve loved more fruit options for dipping, 2.5/5. The server and bartender were great.
