Editorial Review for The Melting Pot – by Cindy Locke
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.

We went for our anniversary and a much needed date night. We were greeted by very attentive hostesses and we got a great area in the basement. The roses and mood was set for the evening. New to this dining experience, our server, a tall red-headed gentleman with a great smile and cheerful personality) explained everything in detail and made a few suggestions as to his favorites. Glad we had a guide! The service was quick and professional. The food "Out-of-this world," the dining experience was fun, the location of our private cove, perfect. Lots of money? You get what you pay for and we did, experienced server, fantastic food, great atmosphere! What more could one ask for?
Pros: Experienced Servers, Ambience/Atmosphere, Great Food, Flowers for Date
Cons: Not a single one.

I mean, really people. Unless you go to Chilli's or someone other craphole, you're not going to find a better deal in town. The same idiots who complain about it being overpriced are probably the same ones who complain about having to cook their own food!!! GET A FRIGGING CLUE!!!. I recently took my wife of eight years to the Littleton location for an impromptu night out. From the moment I walked in the door I not only observed an attentive host staff, but an multi-level waterfall. Simply AMAZING! Our server, who was very professional and direct, began telling us about their newest special. It was a four course meal for two which included a bottle of wine. Where on earth can you find something like this? The best part about the special was that a portion of the proceeds were going to charity. Our server made us believe that without a doubt, this was the best way to go. He was direct and passionate, but not pushy. We tried their newest cheese and although the presentation was interesting (a long carving knife to a lime for zest) I still believe the Wisconsin cheese is their best. Chocolate was of course sinful, but what set the night off completely had nothing to do with the food. Towards the end of our evening the manager, Tony I believe was his name,( My wife calls him the well-dressed secret service) came to our table with two glasses of champagne. We were both shocked he came to the table considering we weren't celebrating anything with champagne and strawberries. When we informed him we weren't celebrating anything he laughed and said he knew that, but sometimes just getting out is reason enough. AGREED!!! He then thanked us for coming in and talked briefly about the charity we had just "donated" to! I had to write my own review of this wonderful restaurant after seeing several bad reviews. We'll be back! -Jonathan and Diane
Pros: Everything from the waterfalls to the service...
Cons: $6.50 for a beer?
