Reviews for The Melting Pot in Farmingdale, NY
We come to the melting pot every few years. This time we arrived early to beat the noisy dinner crowds and were seated by the... fireplace! Cheese fondue is where it's at! They always offer additional dippers but we get so full! We knew that this would bea lot of food, and so the server was able to package up our salads. They were great the next day for lunch. Had a 4 course mealand left stuffed. So many options for foods, dippers and sauces. We like some of them and others not so much. We arrived at 4and left at 7. At 7 they were pretty well packed for a Monday night. This space is kid friendly but not sure we'd bring ourkids since this is a respite for us. Read more
Had a wonderful time here for our anniversary dinner the food was fantastic and our server Marie M was so sweet and... knowledgeable of the menu. She even wrote happy anniversary on a plate with chocolate. It was so cute. We had a reservation andthey sat us in this adorable nook that was private and made us feel like we were there all by ourselves. Would definitely comeback! Read more
This place is out of this world! Me and my husband been together for 15 years and I literally kept telling him that this is my... favorite place we ever came to. We started with the spinach artichoke cheese Fondue, that came with regular pieces of bread andpretzel bread which was absolutely amazing. it also came with broccoli celery apples and carrots. We ended with the s’more‘sfondue and that came with rice crispies, pound cakes, waffles, marshmallows,different types of fruits and a bunch of otheramazing desserts. To top it off me and my hubby tried the black berry lemonade that was off the hook best drink I ever had thenI ended up trying a second drink that had a bunch of ingredients in it but it had lavender syrup and I can’t tell you howamazing that was. The thing that made the night the best was our server Marissa.she was so knowledgeable friendly funny down toearth and I literally cannot wait to go again just to see her smile because she’s an amazing person and she deserves araise! If I could give this place 10 stars I would I had the best time that I’ve had in a long time. another thing I want toadd is that the seating was very intimate. I love that people weren’t sitting on top of us and it was just very romantic! Read more
Everyone should try this. Such a fun date night spot. They make the fondue in front of you. Ask for extra pretzel bread because... it's so good. The cocktails are amazing and getting dessert is so worth it. A unique dining experience everyone should try Read more
Came here for my Birthday! Service was great! I love the atmosphere. Lights were very dim for a romantic setting. At first I was... a little nervous coming in not knowing what to expect. But the waiter gives detailed instructions on how to cook your food!Place is pricey but well worth it. Read more
Highly recommend. After hearing such great reviews, my boyfriend and I decided to try it out for our late Valentine’s Day... date. I believe it, it was well worth the money. All of the staff was so accommodating and kind. I’m dairy free so I orderedthe vegan cheese fondue. Shortly after I had ordered my waiter told me that they were out of it but someone was going to run outto go and get some more. Honestly was heartwarming that they would ever do that. Many places I go out to eat tend to give me ahard time about my allergy. However this place made it a pleasant experience. They assured me as well for what food andsauces/dips I was able to have. I forgot our waiters name but he was so friendly and well knowledgeable about the menu items.All the booths are private which was nice. I will definitely be returning. Food was delicious, definitely a wonderful time andexperience. For those who’ve never been keep in mind that you will be cooking your own food but it’s so much fun!! I alsobelieve the portion sizes for all the food was the right amount for a 4 course meal. Read more
Tonight we went out to the melting pot for chocolate fondue to celebrate our anniversary and Leanna was incredible and made our... experience so special. She brought out extras for dipping & was very attentive and checked on us often. Leanne was so sweet andfriendly. Her service alone makes us want to visit again, but the chocolate fondue was obviously amazing!!! We got the flamingturtle chocolate and two seasonal cocktails which were both great. Read more
The Melting Pot is a dining out experience unlike most others. Particularly because you are preparing your own meal. However, it... is never the same experience because there are so many variations to try and experiment with. If you are looking for a diningexperience that also has a sense of adventure this is the place for you! Vegetarian friendly meals as well! Read more
