Experience was great. We had Maya as our server and she was awesome. My friend just got a job at another location and wanted to have the whole experience. Maya kindly explained everything. For cheese we chose the fiesta cheese and classic alpine. I'm vegetarian and thought the vegetarian options were great. I do wish they had cheese raviolis as an option as I don't eat mushroom. We chose the classic and the flaming turtle. We added a shot of kahlua to the classic and it was great. Overall great expe

Four of us went to the Melting Pot and had the most wonderful evening. Our waitress, Amanda, was attentive and helpful. We ordered two- four course meals (2 people for $130 and it covered a cheese fondue, salad, entree, and chocolate fondue). We selected the Wisconsin cheddar and alpine (both were amazing- the cheddar particularly so), two of us the house salad with raspberry vinaigrette and two of us the cesar salad (I can attest the raspberry vinaigrette was SO good and the cesar was raved about), the grill was fun and the coq a vin delicious (and the meats were such good quality, tender, and not fatty at all), and finally the yin and yang, and the flaming turtle (both of which I'd highly recommend). Well definitely return. We highly recommend this spot!

First time sitting at the bar and enjoying fondue alone. I will do it again! The bartender, the young lady's whose name I really wish I could remember, was very friendly and efficient. I "only" had the cheese, Classic Alpine and chocolate, Flaming Turtle. The dippers were fresh and yummy. Plentiful enough for me, but they will bring you more if you desire.

We were here twice in the past month. The first trip was for happy hour at the bar. Our bartender was super friendly and the drinks were great. We also had cheese and chocolate fondue that was really good. We usually get the fiesta cheese and I request extra apples. The second trip was around my husband's birthday for Magical Dining month. I have been going to Melting Pot for like 15 years, and have never had such bad service. The only staff members that were friendly were the same bartender from last month that remembered us and the manager. We sat down to eat at 6pm and didn't leave until 8. The section we were in was pretty empty when we arrived, but it took a long time to order. Our cheese course was good, fiesta cheese with extra apples and soft pretzels. The dinner course was the main issue. Our meats and dips came out but no veggies. Our waiter was nowhere to be found. There seemed to be two other waiters in our section. I stopped a hostess and let her know about the veggies since she was the first person I saw after we had eaten over half our meats. The manager came around asking how everything was. I told him that I think our waiter quit or left since I hadn't seen him. I let him know about the veggies and eventually they were brought. In the meantime my husband went to the bar to get more ice water since both of ours were out and no one was coming around with water. Our chocolate course was good and our waiter did eventually come back. By this time our section was full. It seemed like we were his only table in this section or maybe he was a trial server. Normally at Melting Pot I'm use to someone checking on us about every 10 minutes - not necessarily the server, but someone. Magical Dining is a great deal. We would only be back to sit at the bar. You can eat there just as ease as sitting at a table with much better service.

We visited melting pot for a family birthday celebration and Robert took wonderful care of us. We had a party of 9 and we all had a blast and loved our food. He gave great recommendations and was very attentive. We truly enjoyed our experience and will come back when I'm town again!

We had a great experience at the Melting Pot last night. The food was amazing (as always), ambience is great (perfect for a night out with friends or date). Our server Oscar provided superb service. We go to this location at least once a year. The only thing that changed this time around was the wait time upon arrival (even with a reservation). This is the first time we had to wait for everyone on our party to show up to be seated. It was a small group - 5 people and 4 had already there.

I absolutely loved it.... right now I'm enjoying myself.... I will say that I was nervous because I'm not big at trying new things and I'm vex picky but I have to say I absolutely loved it and I can't wait to come again. Chris was our server and Judy was a helper and they were extremely nice and very helpful, courteous and enjoyable to talk with. The manager and hostess was just as nice, too. The atmosphere is so relaxing and fun... the music is fun... uplifting... it is immaculately cleaned. Even the bathroom is cute, especially the faucet. Every employee that won five was respectful and nice . Everyone seems to be happy at their job.. they have people in the same area but spaced so it's really nice. You feel like you have your own space but you don't feel isolated. OK, I just tried the dessert and oh my goodness if I never eat anything else, this is the absolute best and I will fight anybody over it ... it's what you would call heavenly.... I'm so HAPPY!!! This is a 5 Star Experience!!!

When it comes to a special occasion, we have often found ourselves looking for something interesting, fun and unique, the Melting Pot is exactly that. If you love fondue in any form you will love this concept. The variety of food you get to dunk into your fondue makes it a great experience for everyone. We opted for both the cheese and the chocolate fondue which gave us double the fun. If you are looking for something special then look no further, the price is higher than others dinners, but you are certainly paying for a memorable night out on top of your food. In terms of service, the staff are all friendly and knowledgeable and helped us make some enjoyable choices we may not have selected ourselves. We will be back when the next occasion calls!

Food amazing as always, interior was romantic and nicely dim, the service is the reason it gets 4 stars. Our server seemed to disappear through our meal for long periods which drug it out to over 2 hours, we eventually flagged someone down and requested to keep our meal moving please. But people get busy so it's understandable at time. Will give it another shot since the food was so nice

Our server Harrison was absolutely the best!! Fast, kind and funny. The private area was perfect for our group and the ambiance was very chill. I always thought fondue was only for desserts, and was very pleased with each course. Will be back next year.

Land & Sea*
Amarilis R.

The service here was above and beyond! We were celebrating a birthday and they put out rose petals and a candle at our request. I had also requested a secluded booth and they did just that! It was a very intimate experience. Our server Chadwick was amazing. It was our first time there and he was sure to explain the menu and how it worked. My Martini was delicious they have so many options to choose from. I got the land and sea and it tasted amazing. It was all reasonably priced and I would definitely go again

If they close at 10pm, and i have a reservation for 930 or 945- will I only have 15-30min to eat?

No, that's just when the last seating is.

Can we go just for desserts? Has anyone tried?

Yes you can go for just chocolate!

Do you have a vegan menu? I've seen one floating around online but wasn't sure if it's seasonal or regional.

Yoey, we are excited to confirm that we do offer a vegan menu! All of our cheeses and chocolate can be made with vegan ingredients. We also have vegan salad and entree options for you to enjoy as well!

I came here one evening with the family for a Christmas dinner. We had known about this local…read morelegend for a long time, and decided that it was time to come and check it out. First of all, the ambiance is exquisite. Absolutely unparalleled in town in terms of effort. Every square inch of this place was done up for the holidays, and I hear they go just as hard for Halloween. It was fun and beautiful to look at. Really awesome stuff. Service was good, too. Very friendly, attentive servers who knew how the flow of a fondue dinner should go. Salads, cheese, mains, dessert. We were not rushed or delayed. All was well. As for the food, it was a night of a ton of fun, much like you would expect from this type of place. And it was also delicious. The whole table went for the Extreme Combination Trail. So one price yielded us a soup or salad, a cheese fondue, a main course, and chocolate fondue for dessert. I had the Southwest Caesar salad (Romaine, toasted croutons, parmesan Caesar dressing topped with a sweet red pepper coulis). A perfectly serviceable salad. I had no issues with this. Bright, fresh, crisp, and a good amount of the delicious dressings on top. Next came the cheese course. We got the Alpine Swiss (Gruyere, Emmenthaler, white wine, minced garlic & nutmeg). I liked the simplicity of the additions, just some garlic and nutmeg, but the flavors were potent and delicious. The fruit dippers were nice, but the veggie dippers were cut very roughly. Definitely gotta make those easier to dip and munch. Main course time, cooked on the hot rocks. Our Extreme combo came with Filet, Sea Scallops, Pacific NW Chicken, Fusion Shrimp, and Short Rib Bulgogi. I think places like these have to tell you how to cook these meats to a well-done temp, or something like that. But, you gotta use your head here. Don't cook that filet to well-done. Don't make that scallop so rubbery it bounces. Just, use your head. If you do that, these lovely little bites will cook perfectly and be perfect for dipping into their flavorful sauces. A great main course. Don't bother with the hot sauce flight, though. None of them are good enough to justify the cost and the sacrificing of the stock sauces that you get included. Finishing off with the chocolate fondue dessert course, I don't remember which one we choose, but I remember that they were delicious. Ooey and gooey, an excellent amount of fun dippers in the perfect size and shape for popping them in your mouth all in one go. A great end to a great dinner. Overall, this was a much better experience than the other fondue place in town. I can't remember the name. But the fondues have more flavor, the meats are just as good quality, and the atmosphere is 100% more warm and inviting. If you're reading this, debate over, come here.

We'd be in the middle of a course, and the next one would come. We were in and out in under 1.5 hours, which for fondue and four courses, it's was a little too quick. The food, however, is always consistent and delicious. The meal starts with soup or salad and bread. Followed by cheese, entree and dessert. What's nice is you can custom which courses you want and for the entree, you can customize your meat selections. The dining room itself is pretty. It's always decorated for holidays and it's never too loud. I'll continue to be back!

My girlfriends loved the carrot cake and the fourgasm (4 dessert sampler). Everything was a bit expensive, but you're paying for the expensive. My one minor complaint was that we had not been there an excessive amount of time, but as we were checking out, we were informed we needed to leave because they needed our table in 5 minutes. I did not care for that. Overall, this was a really fun experience and I'm sad we had to say goodbye.

THIS PLACE IS NOT CLOSED. IT JUST MOVED UPSTAIRS…read more I hope you're ready to read a dissertation, cuz I have a lot to write. lol. This past weekend we got to enjoy a really delicious and fun evening at the East End Market for our friend's birthday. La Femme du Fromage Upstairs is a private dining experience on the second floor of the popular East End Market, just above Domu. Dining here is by reservation only, so make sure to plan ahead. We had a group of 12 people, which was the max capacity this place can hold. This is a personalized dinner and wine pairing curated by the owner of La Femme, Tonda. She and her team took great care of feeding and entertaining us for a little over the 3 hours that we were there. The food was excellently prepared by Chef Dale and our table service was handled by Rob, who made sure our wines and drinks were always filled throughout the evening. Tonda is an expert in wines and cheeses, with over 30 years in the industry, traveling the world to learn the intricacies of both. Every course she brought out, she explained the history of the wine that was paired with it. Every cheese we tried, she explained what animal it was from and how it's prepared. She's such a burst of energy as well. You can really tell she loves what she does. Our first course (which I sadly forgot to take a picture of because I immediately inhaled it all) was a Brie fondue that was infused with champagne, shallots, garlic, and was topped with crab meat. Served with sides of roasted cauliflower, roasted carrots, apple slices, and a tasty crusty bread. (I cant for the life of me, remember what type it was) This dish was paired with a glass of Simonet Blanc de Blancs, a sparkling white wine. Every time I emptied my glass, Rob was nearby to immediately refill it. It was awesome! Our second course was a charcuterie plate of 3 cheeses, fresh blueberries and grapes, and wagyu beef salami. The first cheese presented was a soft spreadable sheep's cheese that was infused with truffle. It was earthy and nutty, and I was blown away by how velvety it was. The second cheese (and my personal favorite) was a coffee infused cow's cheese. I loved it so much that I also purchased a small block of it from Tonda at the end of the evening! The third cheese, if I remember correctly, was a hard goat cheese that was nutty and had a really cool texture when eating. The wagyu beef salami was amazing and paired really well with every cheese. All this was paired with a glass of Mommessin Beaujolais Villages, a fruity red wine. And of course, Rob was always ready to swing by and refill my glass when needed! The third course was a beef tenderloin, served with a side of asparagus and aligot, all topped with a delicious gravy. The beef was super tender, the asparagus still had a nice bite to it, and this was also my first time trying aligot. If you don't know what it is, it's a VERY cheesy mashed potato, and it's AWESOME! lol. This dish was paired with a glass of El Enemigo Malbec, a darker red wine from Mendoza. And yet again, my boy Rob was on deck to keep it coming! (I'm gonna shout out every chance I get) Finally for dessert, we had little vanilla and lemon shortcakes, topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. The cakes were moist and buttery and the strawberries were bright and lightly tart. The dessert was paired with a glass of Vietti Moscato d'Asti, a sweet sparkling white wine. This sweet wine was PERFECT for the sweet spongey cake. It was an absolutely delicious pairing. (And you already know Rob was getting the refill in) For anyone crazy enough to actually read all this. I hope you have the chance to go out and enjoy this place sometime. Tonda has a really special little spot here, and it deserves all the praise it gets. Chef Dale is a master of his craft, the food was amazing. And Rob is a damn good server who made sure we were always well taken care of. We will definitely be back soon, Tonda. Thank you for an awesome evening!

Understanding the menu was kind of confusing at first, but our server explained it kindly to us. Since you have to share, I feel like this type of restaurant is best for 2 people at a time. I was with 2 other people and it felt like we were overloading our pot at times, especially during the meats course. The appetizer course was good! The cheese was yummy and I enjoyed the variety of dippers they provided. I was not a fan of the meats course -- by the time they cooked, they were flavorless and watery. Also, some of the meats wouldn't stay on the skewer while in the pot, causing us to search for it. Of course, since you cook it yourself, this could be user error. My favorite was the dessert course. Even though I didn't like the rest of our meal, I will probably be back just to enjoy the chocolate fondue. Service was friendly, but was not quick at all. We were at the restaurant for 3+ hours, and most of that time was waiting for our server to bring us our next pot/dippers. We came on a Wednesday night at around 5PM. Overall, I will be coming back but only for the dessert course.

Inside feels like you've been transported to to an outdoor movie theater. It's dark with little lights inside car-tables lined up around a giant screen showing different Sci-Fi shorts. All of them are quick so you don't have to worry if they show something you don't care for. They also even have little speakers that play the music, just like they would have in a drive in back in the day. I saw set ups for bigger parties but I feel like two people get the best set up because they get to sit like they're in a car. There are tables at the back not in cars so they can be used for handicap seating. I wasn't able to book us all at the same time, but I do know I booked my mom a handicap seat and she was able to be accommodated. I will say you book this more for the ambiance than the food. The food itself is ok and there are plenty of things that looked interesting to try, but I haven't ended up liking much of what I've gotten here. Sadly they removed my favorite thing, the cheese steak sandwich. I know I know the menu will change but I genuinely thought that was a classic that would stay so I was bummed. I did like the milkshake we got this time and my sandwich was decent but it was a holiday event special so I doubt I'll see it again either. Ah well, this is one of the more interesting places to eat here so we will likely be back.

Both visits I waited almost 1 hour for my reservation to be honored. No apologies. Nothing to accommodate. (Keep in mind if I had shown that late they would have given my table away). Once sat I was really irritated to see a half empty room. The table beside me was sleeping in the booth. No one was moving them along. No one. Once they actually left it took 10 minutes for the tale to be cleaned and another 10 before another reservation was sat. The lobby was still full of reservations not being honored though. The wait staff was OK both times. They go through the motions; food is slow to come out. We were checked on once. No area leader in sight to check on people. There's a whole park outside and stopping here on two separate occasions has put my planned time at the park in jeopardy. At this point, I won't be back. And if you have plans in the park, consider NOT eating here.

For a simple meal for two people, the service was unreasonably slow throughout the evening. Our server, Svet, was polite and personable, but friendliness alone could not make up for the delays. The hummus appetizer was excellent and was easily the highlight of the meal. It was flavorful and served with pita, cucumbers, carrots, and red peppers. The food presentation overall was attractive and showed promise. The most serious issue occurred when my son ordered a refill of his virgin mojito and was served a drink containing alcohol. He immediately noticed something was wrong after taking a sip and handed it to me. I tasted it as well and confirmed that it contained alcohol. Serving alcohol in a child's drink is a significant mistake and should never happen. We also ordered the steak frites based on a recommendation and were told it was exceptional. Unfortunately, the steak was extremely tough and chewy, making it difficult to eat and far from what was described. Management apologized and removed the steak from the bill, but the combination of excessive wait times, the alcohol mix-up involving a minor, and the disappointing entrée left a poor overall impression.

The fries were also cold and hard, so that side definitely missed the mark. Overall, it was not a bad experience, but it also was not one that would make me rush back. The restaurant seemed understaffed. there were only one waiter and waitress working the entire time we were there. I would not try again.

We dined at The Ravenous Pig again on our most recent trip to Orlando, and I'm happy to report it's…read morestill every bit as incredible as it was when we first stumbled upon it in 2024. The steak frites are just as magnificent as my boyfriend and I remembered. Have you ever had a food memory? Years ago, my dad made the best steak I've ever had. He passed away when I was a kid, and two summers ago, when I took my first bite of the steak here, my mouth watered... but so did my eyes. It was one of the strangest, most beautiful experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. For a moment, it felt like Dad was sitting at the table with us. To taste something so familiar, something I hadn't experienced in over twenty years, was surreal. That's not a compliment I hand out lightly. So we each had that For this visit, we started with the rock shrimp tacos, and they absolutely did not disappoint. They packed a nice little kick without overwhelming the dish, and we practically inhaled them. Of course, we had to finish the meal the same way we did last time: with churros. Somehow they were even better than we remembered. Crispy, warm, perfectly sweet, exactly the kind of dessert that makes you argue over who gets the last bite. My boyfriend ordered two Old Fashioneds, and I had two Cosmos. Both were delicious and definitely generous on the pour. I was a little concerned when we arrived for our 8:00 p.m. reservation because the place was PACKED for a Thursday night. We ended up waiting a bit past our reservation time. The hostess suggested we grab a drink at the bar, but that area was just as crowded, so we hung out in the lobby instead. The wait ended up being completely worth it because we were seated at the exact table I was secretly hoping for: the most perfect little corner window booth, straight out of a movie scene. It was the ideal setting for our last night of vacation. And then there was our server, Anton. Anton could teach a master class on waiting tables. He was efficient, funny, attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what he was doing. In a world where great service sometimes feels like a lost art, Anton was an absolute delight. The Ravenous Pig delivered once again: phenomenal food, excellent cocktails, memorable service, and one of those meals you'll still be talking about long after you've gone home. We can't wait for our next trip to Orlando and our next visit back.

Ravenous Pig in Winter Park is a solid experience. The staff was great from start to finish and the…read morecraft cocktails were wonderful, definitely worth exploring the menu a bit. The snapper collar tacos were the star of the show. Easily enough to share between two people, with fresh fish and really good homemade corn tortillas. The fish of the day was also excellent and the fresh ciabatta with garlic butter was hard to stop eating. The cauliflower appetizer missed the mark a bit for me, the pieces were a little too big and came out slightly undercooked. The chicken salad was just alright, nothing bad but nothing memorable either. Parking can be a little tough in the area, but the complimentary valet makes it much easier. I love that they have a quicker option out back with the beer garden, you can't go wrong!
