"The experience at the Melting Pot was disappointing. It was way too expensive for the quality of food, the ambiance was poor, and the environment was quiet, in a bad way. Our server was very accommodating (probably the only good thing about our experience) but service overall was very slow, despite hardly any customers in the restaurant at the time. We waited a total of 30 minutes before the first course was even served. We went for the special Thursdate which they claimed would include a table full of rose petals and candles, however, there was 1 candle only. The ambiance for the special Thursdate was depressing and nowhere near what was marketed. Finally, the food was very bland and cheap. The meat (especially steak) was not seasoned and the dipping sauces were flavorless. For the price you 're paying for this meal, I would expect the food to taste delicious. I generally do not like to speak so poorly about a restaurant, but in my first experience at the Melting Pot, I was very underwhelmed and disappointed."
