I originally tried MeltingPot out on a Monday Ladies Night and had a blast with my girlfriends. The waiters/waitresses, fantastic food and great wine list always keep us entertained and coming back. Since then my boyfriend and I go quite a bit for dinner because it gives us the opportunity to have a wide pallet of meats/fishes/veges for dinner. No matter if we get a private booth or sit in the main dining area, we always enjoy the ambiance. When our families traveled to Austin for a special event, it was an easy decision for us to chose MeltingPot for the big dinner. The BEST part was they take reservations on weekends! We had a large party and we were so impressed by how attentive they were to us. The waiter was very patient with us as 8 of the guests had never been to anything like the MeltingPot and had numerous questions (I think he probably explained the process 8 individual times, but he never got frustrated). It was one of the best large dinners out I have had with friends/family and everyone was VERY pleased with all of the four courses (especially since we got to try so many with the larger group).
Pros: Reservations, Great Food, Fantastic Waitstaff
