| About: | How do you fondue? A visit to the sophisticated The Melting Pot introduces diners to the traditional and fun Swiss cooking style. Cheese, meat, seafood and dessert fondues dominate the menu at this swank restaurant with high-backed booths, romantic Lover's Lane section and spacious party room.

Sip a specialty drink from the trendy bar overlooking granite tabletops and glistening fondue pots. Many of the wines from the Wine Spectator award winning wine list are offered by the glass. |

User Rating: 3 out of 5 starsits an experience: ive been twice. Save money and skip the main entree unless u wanna eat boiled meat. it was tasteless..........so u go for the appetizer and dessert....they call it cheese and chocolate. usually its over crowded and a popular place. the specialty drinks are way over priced. good for an occasional nice out maybe once a year
User Rating: 3 out of 5 starsA little too hyped up and a bit pricey. But fun.: While the Melting Pot is a dining experience that moves away from the norm, I hardly think it's worth the money. All food is served fondue style, giving customers the ability to dunk their food in various sauces (cheese, chocolate, etc). It's fun, but not really filling unless you want to fork over extra $$. Expect to spend roughly 25-30 per entree. You'll need appetizers and desserts if you want a full stomach. A cute place to take on a first date, but not one you'd go to very often. Not a kid-friendly environment as they could poke their eye out or burn themselves touching the pot and dipping the food. Look for the money saving coupon in the local magazine - they can take off half the cost of the meal.
User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsGreat Time!: This Melting Pot Restaurant was great. It's walking distance to the subway and Dupont Circle. Atmoshpere is wonderful, the drinks were absolutely fantastic, pricey but worth the price. It's on the high dollar range but its a good "special occassion" spot to go to. Or just go for salads and dessert.
