    A selection of sauces
    Trent O.

    I think the three star review sums it up. It's technically a decent amount of food by volume for the price. I mean, I left full. None of the food is remarkable. What you are paying for is the show of the courses on the little burner at your table of four, but you have to cook all of your own entrees. I think I would prefer to take the money I spent and go to one of smaller, better food experiences around in south Jersey and especially Philly. There are just so many. While all of the food is generally underwhelming, I will say that we really appreciated the friendly and attentive servers and waiters. They were a heck of a lot of fun and engaged in a lot of playful banter and did a great job explaining how melting pot works for us newbies. The entire meal took about two hours and forty five minutes for our party of eight to conclude. The concept provided an interactive activity during dinner four our party of eight, so that was kind of neat. I think everyone should try it once so they can decide for themselves, but not a huge fan.

    Went to celebrate our anniversary. They gave us a secluded table in the back. The cheese dip we got was amazing. I literally could have just had that for dinner and been happy. But we also did the traditional fondue. That was very good. And the classic chocolate and peanut butter sauce dessert was the perfect ending. The staff couldn't have been nicer. We were very satisfied and happy.

    Me and my fiancée went here for a Valentine's Day/anniversary dinner. We've been here a couple times before and always enjoyed it, so I wanted to give my take on the place. Our server Jill D. was very nice, personable and professional. She made sure she got back to us in a timely manner, I knew the restaurant was busy so I could understand why it took her a little time. Her co-worker, Nick, also helped out when he was nearby if we needed anything. The service was amazing overall. We ordered the Valentine's special they had at the time, and everything was absolutely delicious. The cheese was amazing and the salads were nice and fresh. You get to pick a broth you want to cook your protein along with your dipping sauces. My fiancée really loves the Green Goddess dipping sauce for her vegetables. Then we were served dark, chocolate, fondue for dessert, and it came with fresh fruit and pastries for dipping. The only thing I could say is, it is a little on the pricey side. But you get 4 courses for the price, and you get to choose what you want for those courses. So it's customizable every time you go. We definitely will come back here again for a nice dinner. If you're looking for a nice fine dining dinner for two or more, I definitely recommend The Melting Pot. It's well worth it.

    I have been to this location three times and I will say there are TWO things that can make or break your experience: 1. The people you're with 2. Your server The first time I came here it was right after they had reopened due to the Covid closures and our server was so fun it truly made the experience. The second time we came, my husband and I had an amazing quiet little private booth, but we got seated next to a couple having a blind date and the two of us ended up being so entranced in ear hustling their conversations, we didn't even care about anything else. This past time, we opted for a double date with my sister and brother in law. It was surprisingly busy for a Sunday evening, but we were seated within ten minutes of our reservation time. I started with the sunrise sangria, while others got soft drinks. My brother in law asked for a Crown and Coke and was informed they didn't have Crown Royal, so he went with a Jack and Coke. No biggie. For our cheese course we did the fiesta and Quattro formaggio. Pro tip: go with another couple and get a double burner table so you can have options. Also, GET THE FRIES! The cheese dippers are always lackluster in my opinion, but adding on the fries really makes it. While we did get salad because it came with our "Big Night Out" option, you could totally skip this step so you can save room for everything else. As someone who loves to cook, once all of our entree protein arrived I got to work. We did the mojo cooking style and the bourguignon, which is basically hot oil perfect for frying. If you choose the oil option you get tempura batter and tempura flakes. So I collected all of the shrimp from everyone and made us fried shrimp. Then I made juicy tempura battered chicken nuggets. Our server, Chelsea, came over, saw what I was doing, and was amazed. She asked me to explain how I did it and suggested I snap some pics ( so I did!). This broke the ice and made the experience better. I love interacting with my server at Melting Pot, especially since they spend a lot of time stirring cheeses and mixing chocolate blends. The dipping sauces are another part of the experience I love. The remoulade is my absolute favorite. When it came time for chocolate, I did my usual peanut butter s'moreo, which is s'mores with PB and Oreo crumbs added. You can blame my server I had in April of 2021 who taught me I could make my own chocolate flavor. The mix ins for the chocolate also could use some help. I feel like there are definitely better culinary options for some of the mix ins, but overall it's a good experience and everyone should try it at least once! Also, shout out to Chelsea!

    The place is great, plenty of parking, clean and they sit people quickly. The food was good, and the waitress was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Thank you, Carly! Yes, you cook your food, but that's part of the fun! Would recommend AND I will be coming back.

    My husband and I came to the Maple Shade Melting Pot for a date night. It was nice evening to spend time together and who doesn't love dipping food into hot cheese?!? We decided on one of their 4 course options (can't remember what it's called) and a charcuterie board. The 4 course meal was wonderful and included a salad, appetizer, entree and dessert. My husband ordered the Caesar salad and I got the California salad and we decided on the Wisconsin cheddar fondue for apps. For dinner we did the create your own- my husband got the chicken, steak and duck while I chose the filet mignon, shrimp and chicken. For dessert we chose the s'mores. I forgot to get pics of our food, but got one of us Overall it was a great date night and the melting pot is always a good time. I do not recommend the charcuterie board, it was underwhelming. Other than that, we had a great experience and the food was awesome.

    S'mores chocolate!

We dined on their beautiful patio, amongst flowers, and a very pretty water view and breezes :) The food was stellar! The menu still had what I loved prior - chicken stuffed avocados! They tweaked it a bit - no longer three big halves; but two, plus grapes (ick - not my thing - like eyeballs lol!) and pita bread (no carbs for me at night - I didn't eat). I also had probably THE BEST CAESAR SALAD I've EVER HAD! And wow, have I had a lot of them. They are a standby / go to - you name it - for me. I love them and can tell you where to find the best ones in a heart beat (Sienna's in Voorhees, Fieni's in Voorhees, SALAD HOUSE in Marlton, all Outback's and Carrabba's, and HERE) ! My friend's friend told her that Redstone's corn bread croutons were delicious and a must try. Sooo, we subbed the sourdough garlic croutons with the cornbread ones - no problem at all. HOLY SH****************T were they amazing! What a neat and yummy idea! In the future, I'm going to have the full size versus the starter size that I had last night. Our server, Flower, was a doll - very chill, attentive, and charming. I notice everything, including one of her tattoos (a tiny astrological bull). She was a Taurus too like my birthday friend, which was kind of neat. Cool name too. Redstone is top notch through and through. Even the bathrooms were great - very clean and smelled so damned good. Why in Hades hadn't I been here in 7 years is beyond me!

We managed to snag a last-minute 4:30 reservation online, walked right in and were seated immediately. We were hardly alone, as the bar and seemingly all interior tables were filled! Despite that, the sound level was quite acceptable. My wife ordered salmon as she usually does; I went for the Spicy Thai Noodle entree. Surprisingly it was 15 minutes before we got our dishes! My wife was delighted with her perfectly-presented and cooked salmon, however my Thai Noodle entree was far saltier than it was spicy, so I sent it back. Our server offered any number of alternatives but given how slow the kitchen seemed, we decided to order dessert instead and our server suggested the Chocolate-chip Skillet Cookie. Freshly baked and served in a cast-iron pan, this gargantuan cookie took a few minutes to arrive but was clearly worth the wait; It's so good that it's simply genius; far better than anything I'd ever expect from a chain restaurant. The cookie isn't overly sweet and has a fabulous texture and a wonderful, caramelized taste that blends perfectly with the generous topping of ice cream. It's truly a stunner that deserves to be one of their signature desserts. The level of professionalism on display at all levels is impressive and the manager even came over to make sure everything was OK since I'd sent back a dish. We let her know that the cookie more than made up for any problem! While I wasn't initially happy with my entree, it's very clear that the staff there will do everything they can to ensure every customer has a delightful experience.

Thank you to Sugar Factory for making Valentine's Day for us gals such a wonderful experience. The food was on point for all. The hot chocolate versions you cannot miss if you've the opportunity. They even have to-go versions that are on a separate menu. Be sure to pay attention that there are different menus and far more choice in foods for lunch than simple brunch. They do have a hard time keeping up with the drink orders overall. Meaning that you may order a drink of any kind and because of the intricacy you will wait a longggggga time. Be patient. Make sure you have no other place to go. Enjoy!

We chose this because the menu had a nice mix of southern and American favorites that they weren't accustomed to. You should've seen two northern boys trying to describe grits to a Swede. Our waitress was awesome. She was great at explaining things and talking about each dish. Of course there were questions. Some things probably got lost in translation but everyone was happy with their choices. I also feel like servers are always put in an awkward position when you ask them to help you choose. Food is like art. It's so subjective. So for starters we got the fried greet tomatoes and the Burrata. Burrata was not ideal for sharing with people you do not know. It was one large piece of toast. So she actually took it back and someone cut it into 4 sections for us. The fried green tomatoes were awesome. It had a nice tangy sauce with sweeter pickles that came along side. My colleague got the open faced chicken sandwich which was an enormous amount of food. It was two fat chicken pieces on two thick slices of toast. I got the salmon sticky rice bowl with a side of the charred broccoli. Both were so delicious. The salmon had some broccoli in it too. So I really over did it. The charred broccoli side had crusted Parmesan in it and a creamy sauce. Both dishes were just knock outs. Almost forgot I got the love latte too. That was really good. I got it with oat milk. So I highly recommend this place. Great for a business lunch too. Easy to hear one another. Music wasn't too loud. Oh they were very gracious with us. We were 15 minutes late because I wouldn't stop talking in the pre lunch meeting. Yeah I'm that guy. Figures I'd be on Yelp.

According to the greeter, they were all walk-ins too. I tried to brush it off as Mother's Day chaos and stay understanding. Unfortunately, it only got worse from there. After finally being seated, we waited around 45 minutes for our food. My wife ordered the steak penne, and it arrived not even lukewarm. I ordered a ribeye that was undercooked and completely unseasoned. To make matters worse, our silverware was dirty, and we had to ask twice just to get clean forks and knives. Even then, we waited another 10 minutes before we could actually eat. What makes this especially disappointing is that this restaurant meant something to us. This was where we had our first date, our wedding night dinner, and our first anniversary dinner. We came back expecting a special night and left genuinely let down.
