    Entree

    The price they charge does not equal the service and quality of food you receive. Unfortunately, we were not impressed with our visit to The Melting Pot. I do not think anything was bad or terrible, it is just extremely overpriced. The service was ok and the food was ok, nothing amazing. However, this location is absolutely beautiful. It is in a historic old mining building in downtown Louisville. The architecture is amazing. Lots of rustic wood and rocks, creating a super cozy and romantic vibe. My husband I have been to another location for a date and enjoyed ourselves. This time we brought our kids. Our 9 year old liked it and could handle dipping his own food but, I did not think it was a good choice for our 5 year old. Hot plate, messy fondue, sharp skewers and a quiet, romantic atmosphere are not ideal for a 5 year old. So, we definitely learned our lesson with that. We paid $189 for my husband and I together (couple meal) and it was an additional $94 for our 9 year old. We received 2 appetizer boards with bread, veggies and apples to dip in cheese. (Not sure why my son did not get his own board). Then we each got a salad. Next was the entree, we got 3 plates that had 5 different meats to try. Last was the dessert boards (we only got 2, instead of 3). Each dessert board had strawberries (some strawberries were not good), bananas, a bite of each of the following: brownie, cake, blondie, Rice Krispie, waffle, marshmallow. We had to wait to be seated even though we had a reservation and we had to ask our server for water twice. The quantity and quality of food just did not equal the price. And the portions did not make sense to me, considering we paid full price for a 4 course meal for 3 people but only received 2 apps and 2 desserts. I would definitely not return here.

    Been here several times. Food is always delicious. We had the full meal.... surf and turf, salads, dessert and cocktails. The service is great and the location in Louisville is a favorite. Built in an old mine. The place has several nooks and crannies with tables. Great for an intimate dinner or family group. We always look forward to our meals here.

    Box of 6 Signature Dipped Strawberries

    We had a wonderful experience at The Melting Pot (Louisville) on 01-11-26. This was our first experience at this particular location, and it did not disappoint. What a great ambiance. We were so fortunate to have Jayda as our server, and she went above and beyond. Thank you for the great recommendations and for your amazing attention to detail, Jayda! Our Four-Course Dinner for Two was absolutely delicious! Thank you to Quincy for making our reservation, to Josiah for confirming some additional details pertaining to our reservation (including the box of 6 Signature Dipped Strawberries), the hostess, and to all those that contributed to making our experience such a memorable one!

    Desert is fun and delicious!

    For a special occasion, this is a fun way to celebrate. We went for a birthday and weren't disappointed. Yes, it is pricey and some of the dishes are too small for the price, but the overall experience is great. Our server was wonderful. She helped us with our order, made recommendations to help us save a little money, reminded us to be careful with the hot pots, and always spoke in a reserved but sweet way. The food was delicious, in fact the proteins seemed fresher and more tender than at the Littleton location. We wish more veggies were served with the cheese and broth pots and that the salads were larger. The atmosphere is unique and interesting.

    What a great place to celebrate something! I went for my husband's birthday! It is so much good food and it is pricey, but you do get so much for what you're paying for. By the time we left I was so full! I love that you can have a private space with the curtains, if you want. The server was also super friendly and helpful when we were trying to figure out what to order. It had been over 10 years since I had been to a melting pot location, so there was a lot that had changed. Everything was super tasty and I will definitely be back!

    I haven't been here in 18 years! It was "Moms Night Out for my church group. We were able to reserve a whole section for all our mommas. I ordered their BFFF special which has appetizer, salad entree and dessert included in price. I was seated with a group of ladies who needed to be gluten free. Their GF cheese dip, and chocolate was amazing! It was plenty of food. I enjoyed every bite of each part of the meal from start to finish. I highly recommend visiting here for date night or hanging out with your friends. The service and ambiance was on point. Thank you for a lovely evening.

    Burned key

    During my visit the waiter put the wrong burner on and it burned my(Tesla) key. The stand in manger kept questioning me if I was sure it was my car key. I advised without the key I was not able to start the car. She gave me a number for the manager and said if I have any questions to call him. I contacted corporate office and I never received a call back from them but a week later another manager that could not help called me and asked me what I was looking for. This is not my job to determine this. The gentlemen stated that another manager would call me the. Next day and till no call or messages left on my machine. The worst service I have ever had and experience to. Our food was delayed so to the wrong burner turned on and they did not seam to care about that either. I felt do to me being Hispanic they just did not care.

    Charity dinner with mojo seasoned broth

    We had a really great experience here Sunday afternoon celebrating an anniversary. The ambiance of this restaurant makes it a great place to celebrate anniversaries and stuff like that. We were seated and taken care of pretty promptly for our reservation, our server was Min and he was friendly and took great care of us. We aren't the type to do "fine dining" often so it can feel awkward to have your server be doing so much for you, but he made us feel comfortable and explained the menu and everything. The food was amazing, or two people, we were absolutely stuffed afterwards. Their menus are pretty standardized as four course options with various add-ons, so we started with the Wisconsin Cheddar, we each had a house salad, mojo style fondue, and yin yang chocolate fondue. Each fondue is served with an assortment of dippers, and the main course is served with dipping sauces as well that really complimented the dish nicely. With the main course the server will give you general times to cook your meats and guidelines, we have done fondue before so it wasn't too foreign of a concept but it's nice of them to let you know. We did order mixed drinks as well that I feel deserve a shout out, while they were pricier than I'd like, I can't deny that they were delicious. But be careful because the cost for those will sneak up on you, haha! All in all it was a great experience. While it is a pricey one, it was well worth it for the occasion.

    Always a fantastic experience! Jack was our server and was friendly, attentive, and made our order perfectly . We ordered the four course lunch meal and chose the fiesta cheese fondue , Caesar salad, mojo cooking style, and the s'mores fondue . All were delicious! The atmosphere is ambient and relaxing. I've never had less than a 5 star experience at this location! Thank you for always providing such a memorable dining experience!

His warmth and patience, especially with two tired young children in our party late in the evening, were greatly appreciated. The appetizers were excellent, and the bread was truly superb. Most of the meal was enjoyable, though a few dishes did not quite live up to their descriptions. The lentil soup, unfortunately, was rather bland and forgettable, lacking flavor and depth. Two entrées the tilapia specialty and a risotto-style dish also felt somewhat overstated compared to expectations and unfortunately they were way over salted. To the restaurant's credit, concerns were addressed politely and professionally, though the offer of a replacement felt a bit scripted as the evening was growing late. We did choose not to accept the replacement. Overall, however, the atmosphere, hospitality, and thoughtful service made for a very pleasant evening. With a bit more care from the kitchen in matching execution to presentation and description, this charming restaurant could truly shine.

The melting pot is the same price and comes with sourdough and all the fruits and veggies you want. The French onion soup was just bad. No flavor and no melty cheese on top. I figured it would have some good cheese because it's from a Swiss place, but no. They might have good chocolate fondue, but I would not go for anything besides dessert.
