Cory Lewis
Went here for a nice anniversary dinner and we were not disappointed. The four course meal options are so good. The cheese, protein, and dessert fondues were all so good. So many options to choose from and every single employee we had contact with was super friendly. Our server did a great job giving us suggestions and explaining everything as it was our first time. Loved it! Definitely going back😀

Never experienced something like this which was super fun! Quick work trip out to SLC allowed for extra time to grab dinner at The Melting Pot!! Service was good with a reservation. Staff was helpful in sharing suggestions. Food was good and filling. If you haven’t been, give it try for sure for a fun experience.

Our anniversary this year was special for a different reason. I've been undergoing cancer treatment, which has left my immune system weakened. This made going to a public restaurant, something we hadn't done in two months, pretty scary for us. We didn't know if it would be possible, but I explained my situation to the restaurant and requested a secluded table. The manager, Brevan, was incredibly understanding and accommodating. He showed us to a private table and assured us that he and our server, Marc, would wear masks while serving us. The dinner was exceptional. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Most importantly, we felt safe and cared for. This anniversary will be a cherished memory. The kindness and compassion shown by the staff at The Melting Pot truly made a difference. They even gave us a happy anniversary card that was signed by all the staff. This a testament to the power of human connection and the importance of going the extra mile. Thank you for an amazing night! ❤️

I’ve had this on my list for a bit and it’s a fun experience in SLC for sure. But for the wait and the price, one might want to reconsider. The cheese was really tasty, but the entree was carried by the amounts of sauces. (Very delicious ones indeed) It also felt like a really long time from sit down to leaving, almost as if we were forgotten. For two people, you are most likely paying more than $100. It’s a cool experience for a night out for sure.

We went here for our anniversary and I came here having high expectations. We did the meal for two for $107. First you select your cheese. They give you raw veggies. I feel like they would be better cooked or steamed. Then your salad. Then your meat. I was not expecting to cook our own meat. It’d be better if they cooked the meat and then you dunk it in the cheese. Instead they give you a bunch of sauces for the meat. Not to mention it would get super smoky and I didn’t see any ventilation.The best part was dessert. The melted chocolate was amazing, and the things they give you to dip in it were yummy too. It was a good experience but I don’t think we’ll be returning.

We did the complete experience for 2, and we both left absolutely stuffed! We were worried as some reviewers said they left hungry, but it we felt the portions were right on. Kayla was our server and she was friendly and attentive.
