    My husband and I live in Asheville, NC, and we venture over the mountain to Gatlinburg a few times a year. Neither of us had been to a Melting Pot restaurant. The reservation process was extremely simple on Open Table. There are add-ons that can be chosen while making the reservation, and I chose the private dining experience. Upon arrival, the staff was friendly and ready for us. We were taken to a dimly lit, private dining space. Our server was Ricky, and he was absolutely wonderful! The menu is very detailed. We chose "The Classic" and "Land and Sea". The Loaded Baked Potato cheese fondue was salty and savory and went so well with the tart green apples (as well as broccoli, carrots, and bread cubes). There are four salads to choose from. We went with a classic Caesar. The dressing was great and the salad was a very good size. We chose the iron skillet cooking option for our meat. There was a huge variety of meat. We had shrimp, garlic pepper steak, herb crusted chicken, pork medallions, salmon, and teriyaki steak along with squash, zucchini, and mushrooms. There are several delicious sauces for dipping, but honestly, we thought the food was great without sauce; however, the Garlic & Wine seasoning was awesome on everything! The best part of the meal was the "Flaming Turtle" dessert. This was chocolate sauce with roasted pecans. The items to be dipped were marshmallows, crispy rice treats, chocolate chip chunks, strawberries, bananas and pound cake. The dessert experience was decadent, and we have already decided that when we go back, we are starting with dessert!

    Our experience was horrible. Our server didn’t check on us much and forgot about us. Everything we asked for took about 20-30 to arrive to the table. The standards for the service just didn’t seem to be there. I used to work at a melting pot and I was surprised how bad the service was.

    My wife and I enjoyed a nice dinner. Food was excellent. Service was great - our server was always available as needed and kept our water and coffee full. Good portion sizes - we both left very full.. Good options in food choices.

    The food is always good here, and our waiter was excellent! Our only complaint was the seating. We were in a tiny booth, and the seat cushions are extremely uncomfortable! All the support is clearly gone from the cushions, so I had to sit on my puffy jacket to keep from being totally uncomfortable the entire time. This is difficult when it takes an average of two hours to sit through all the courses.

    We went for my birthday. They had a handwritten card at the table when we were seated. It was really nice! Food was excellent and service was perfect.
