I’ll remember this place for when I do something bad and have to make it up to the wife. Certainly not my kind of place, but she’d enjoy it. ---

> [@Fry](#): > > How does that work? You should get an electric fondue pot for your wifey if you liked it. I just got one for Christmas from Target that is really big and I love making the swiss fondue with some apples and cubed bread. Perfect for a night at home 😉 ---

I used to go to the one in DC all the time. I have reservations for this one Saturday night. Thanks for posting the review. I was looking for a place to take my girl. ---

i wish i had more hands, so i could give that restaurant 4 thumbs down… went there last week…for $100 for 2 people (we also got the big night out), i expected better quality. the cheese appetizer was good, salad was good, desert was average…but main course i wasn’t impressed with at all. When i go out to eat, i don’t expect to have to cook for myself first off… and secondly, everything just tasted so bland/average…nothing really set it apart from any other restaurant that was half the price… very cool setup in there and such, but i go to a restaurant for food that tastes good, and of the 8 things they gave us to cook, i think maybe 1 or 2 (the pork and the filet mignon) stood out as good…the rest were just ok, if that… i wouldn’t recommend it, but that’s just me… opinions are like assholes… ---

> [@Fry"](#): > > …snip… Overall definitely :tup: :tup: Went last night for the bday dinner and your review is spot on what a great time, certainly the most entertaining/interesting dinner I have experienced in a while. We opted for the dinner for 2, not the big night out and it was more than we could handle. Probably feeds 3-4 with no problem! We started with the cheese course, and had many left over pieces of bread and veggies… salads were pretty good, I guess you really cant mess up a salad too badly Main course was Salmon, terryaki steak, filet mignon chicken and white shrimp…all were really really good. We opted for the Mojo cooking style, which added a nice little citrus hint to food. We were tempted to do dessert but neither one of us had room so we are planning on heading back some night for a dessert only trip Also any Winos like myself out there…they have a great by the glass list, a little on the high side (maybe $1-2 more than some other places) but really good picks. Also there is a very extensive bottle list, perhaps nearly 100? But indeed :tup: :tup: gentlemen, if you want to impress a date here is the place… ---

> [@90NA300ZX](#): > > When i go out to eat, i don’t expect to have to cook for myself first off… If you don’t want to feel like you are cooking for yourself, pick somewhere other than a fondue place? That’s part of the appeal of it. ---

Europa Bistro on Elmwood has fondu that’s delicious, if anybody wants fondu as more of an appetizer and a regular meal after. The rest of their food is sooo good, too. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/review-the-melting-pot/41097.md?page=1)
