The Melting Pot Richmond

Valentine’s Day celebration. They had a fixed price and menu was delicious. Always celebrity my birthday every year. Wonderful service!

Had to wait too long for the food we had to cook ourselves. For $50.00 the meat content was too small. The fondue dessert was great. Many other hot pot restaurant give you all the meat you can eat for less than $50.00 and the protein is just as good. Would I come back? The answer is yes. For dessert.

Wild disappointing experience. We were 3 dozen times in the melting pot, but that was our first one at this point. Salad was badly done and would have sent him back if the service was not so bad. We didn't get cocktails until the 2nd course. Terrible, slow service, although the restaurant is almost empty. Location is terrible and we will not be back.

My husband and I came here day after day. This was our first time here and it won't be our last! The food was really good! I recommend the mojo broth for cooking and the curry dip! Our waitress was so nice! I forgot her name, but she was from Iceland and she was so informative and friendly and we loved her! The only thing is that we haven't planned enough time for our babysitter so we didn't have to enjoy our dessert and take it home. If you definitely plan 4 courses to be here for about 3 hours. Our reservation was for 8 and we left about 10:20 and that was hurried (at the end) because we had to go home to relieve the babysitter. Apart from not knowing how long this would be the whole experience, it is worth it!

Nothing exciting to report. We always enjoyed a visit to Melting Pot. (3 to 4x per year) Now it seems too expensive and underwhelming. This experience was certainly just a simple dinner. Delicious, but too expensive. Now complain. I want to mention that the manager was great. He gave my table and the one next to us a free champagne toast. But it was just before they sat a table of 10 people next to us.
