the melting pot of savannah

good food, great service.. the food at themeltingpot is always known to be good. although you have to plan to walk away with less room in your pocket after every visit, it's the service that drives me back. this is not my first time at ameltingpot, but it was the first time i visited themeltingpot in savannah georgia. from the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. and i don't mean the fake smile that everyone puts on in the customer service business, i generally felt as if the crew enjoyed me being there. the bartender, amber, made the best drinks while taking in consideration our personal flavor wishes. in depth and friendly questions and communication made our wait (we had chosen not to call ahead and have reserve seating) for our table to be both highly enjoyable and comfortable. our server, marvin, furthered our continual enjoyment by giving us helpful advice on the menu and the area (we informed him that we where visiting and wished to know more about the area). i find that the staff there maintain a professional standard while still managing to bring you an experience that will make you never want to leave, and begging to come back again. 5/5.

come hungry...leave with a full tummy!. my husband and i live in savannah and love fondu, so we were excited to find themeltingpot so close to home. we made reservations for a late dinner and night out and had a great experience! all of the staff were so hospitable, especially our waitress who was personable and attentive. the space is very private, cozy, and romantic! each course was delicious, there wasn't anything we didn't enjoy. the dessert was by far the best part of the night, so many yummy options to choose from! the cost is worth the amount and quality of food you get! we will definitely be making more reservations for a date night out!

fun night out!!!. my husband and i thoroughly enjoyed themeltingpot... the food was good...especially the chocolate dessert! mostly, though the experience was unique and made for such a fun date... i called on a very busy weekend night at about five o'clock not thinking we would even be able to get in that night...and they got us in at 8:15! they were great...our server was quinnie...she was very helpful and attentive! i would definitely go again! oh and be sure to try the red sangria...it was amazing :)

started bad....ended great!. my wife and i, and another couple went to themeltingpot recently on a saturday night. i originally made reservations on friday and requested that we have a table with two burners. i was told that they would do their best to accomodate our request, but that they could not promise me anything. they acted like they would be doing me a favor if they provided me with this request. i was told that the two burner tables were for parties of five or more. i explained to them that both couples eat different cheeses and use different cooking styles, thus requiring the two burners. i was amazed that i was even having to have this conversation, due to the fact that i have eaten atmeltingpots in a half a dozen other cities, and never had to have this discussion. needless to say, i arrived on saturday night with a bad taste in my mouth. my wife reminded the hostess of our request and she was very polite and immediately sat us at a two burner table near the bar. our server arrived at the table immediately to take our drink orders, and everything was exceptional from there on out.

loved it!. my husband and i visited themeltingpot to celebrate our birthdays. the food and atmosphere were fabulous and the service was excellent. we were sat at a private booth that provided for a romantic, intimate dining experience. our waitress was very knowledgeable and explained the cooking times, etc in great detail. one of the co-owners even stopped to check on our meal and service. this was one of the best meals we have eaten! everything from the salad to the meats to the chocolate was fabulous! highly recommend to everyone!

very accomodating and great ladies night out!. my two friends and i were lucky to get a late reservation for themeltingpot's girls night out last night and we had a wonderful time! our reservations were very late but they still made us feel very welcome. the manager overheard us being extremely indecisive about what cheese to get and offered to move us to a bigger table so that we could get two different cheeses. what a way to start off! our waiter's name was graysen and he was just so sweet. he was extremely patient and almost overattentive. we could hardly believe he was a brand new server! just such a wonderful restaurant for a good conversational night out. we will definitely be back next month for their ladies night out!

best valentine's day ever. for valentine's day, my boyfriend wanted to take me to themeltingpot, after hearing so many good things about it. when we looked online at the menu, i was hesitant about going because of the price for the fixed menu. but i am oh so glad that he talked me into going. the service was great, the food was amazing! our waitress was so nice and friendly and it was an unforgettable experience. i plan to go back in the future

parents night out!. my husband and i love fondue and have have eaten 3 differentmeltingpot's around the country. i can honestly say the savannahmeltingpot topped them all. we were visiting family in town and my husband and i decided to have a date night, while my inl-aws watched the children. we were seated promptly in a booth set for two. on our table was a rose from my husband, which started the evening off perfectly. we ordered what they call the big night out, changing it up a little to suit our tastes. there was plenty to eat, but we made sure we saved room for there famous flaming turtle for dessert! the evening was filed with delicious food, conversation, excellent service and a fabulous dessert. with two small children at home it was great to sit down for a meal that was not rushed, but instead relaxing as well as entertaining! thank you for a great date night, we will be back!

great family dinner!. my wife and i are avid diners and she recently encouraged me to start writing on urbanspoon because this is how we hear of many of the restaurants that we go to. my reviews are typically brief but i am not sure how it would be possible to write a "brief" review of themeltingpot. first of all, i have dined at manymeltingpot's in the past but none have quite compared to our experience at the new savannah location. having family in town for the holidays, my wife wanted a break from cooking and made a reservation for 12 on a busy weekend night. we arrived a bit early for our reservation time but were fortunately sat within just a few minutes. the hostesses were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. just as our friends and family were beginning to become overwhelmed with the menu our server, loren, was there to answer all of our questions.we mentioned that we had had some appetizers not too long beforehand so loren recommended that 3 of their big night out selections would surely satisfy everyone's appetite and that we would all receive the fullmeltingpot experience. it is so rare that a server is honest about the portions and actually tries to save you some money. we appreciated this more than anything because her recommendations were plentiful and extremely reasonably priced. the cheese was fantastic and she made sure to keep extra bead and whatnot flowing. there was a bit of a back up at the bar, and both loren and the owner were extremely apologetic and accommodating. make sure to clear your schedule for a few hours if you plan on dining here and keep in mind that each course is brought out at the pace that you are eating. you simply cannot have your entree while you are still on your appetizer. it seems that some diners may overlook this. overall, we had an exceptional evening and will surely return again.

loved it!. we had a party of eight for dinner. we had called and spoke to a friendly hostess for our reservation. upon our arrival, we were met by a lovely hostess and shown to our table. we were concerned about having a larger than normal party, but our seating accommodations were perfect. they actually have an area where they remove a discreet wall, bringing an area together that seats eight or ten very comfortably. they also have some other rooms that accommodate larger parties. sam was our waiter and he was fantastic! we were completely blown away with the menu, it offered so much variety. sam helped us to determine what we wanted and then he took care of everything. we never had to ask for refills or additional side items, he always anticipated and fulfilled our every want before we could ask for it. the entire evening was incredible and relaxing, we never felt rushed. my suggestion to anyone would be give this restaurant a try, you will not be disappointed. this is fine dining at its best- savannah is lucky to have themeltingpot. please have a love martini and the disaronno meltdown dessert for me!

great ladies night!. i came here with 6 friends on monday for ladies night...it was surprisingly the first time that they've done ladies night at thismeltingpot and it was fantastic! a friend of mine suggested getting a group of girls together (many of whom didn't know each other), and this gave us a great opportunity to get to know one another. lauren was our server and was wonderful! she actually helped sparked some conversation amongst all of us and gave us things to talk about.
the concept of ladies night is a great deal...$22 included plenty of cheese, a great salad, and plenty of chocolate for dessert. none of us could believe when the owner actually came over to see how we were doing and offered us a free martini that was out of this world!
we will definitely be back!

great idea....great night...great food. i wanted something different. i wanted good food and great atmosphere. i wanted 3 hours to eat, drink, talk, and geniunely enjoy myself. themeltingpot is exactly what i wanted and what i got! i think the owners and the staff are very professional. the fondue experience was so exciting and so unique. the food was fresh and flavorful. the ability to prepare your food exactly as you want is fantastic. i highly recommend themeltingpot for a very different dining experience. if you want to feel great about $50 a person for an exciting meal without a stuffy or obnoxious environment, this is the place. if you are looking for a cheap and uneventful meal, try the golden corral!

treated like royalty.... my family and i recently ate at the newly openedmeltingpot and our experience was amazing. when we initially entered the restaurant, we were greeted by one of the owners and a hostess staff. they very promptly took us to our table. we were then welcomed by our server with in a few minutes time. as we looked through the menu we were initially overwhelmed with the choices, but our server went through them and made many great suggestions for the 5 of us to choose from. once we ordered the presentation began and what a fabulous presentation it was! we orderded the 4 course meal, which if it is your first time there i highly recommend. the first course, which was the cheese fondue, was absolutely delicious! we then received our salads which were very fresh and crisp. the third course was the entree, we chose several different meats and fish. this was unbelievable as well. one of the great things about the entree is that they have other healthy options to cook in other than oil and the flavor is to die for! of course the best part of the whole meal is the dessert and i would make a suggestion that you wear loose clothing because you won't be able to stop yourself from eating all this amazing food. in addition to the divine food, the owner and manager stopped at our table throughout the night to check in on us and make sure we were enjoying our evening. themeltingpot in savannah is one of the best restaurants that we have been to as far as customer service and food quality. i would suggest making reservations, they are booking up fast!

manager needs an attitude adjustment. my husband and friends surprised me for my birthday because i have always loved themeltingpot and one finally opened in savannah. we were a party of 10 and it was a saturday night, but the service was slower than it should've been; we sat with dirty plates and empty drinks between each course and all in all the meal took about 5 hours, which i've never experienced there before. when we tried to bring this to the manager's attention, he immediately started arguing with us (and denied he was doing so) and implied that the only problem we really had was with the bill, that when he checked with us at 9 pm everyone was "happy go lucky". never mind that we were happy we'd finally been served the main course (after having been seated since 7:15) and it was now 11:15 when we were finally able to find someone to talk to. the manager never apologized (to the waitress' credit she was very nice and when she was there was very pleasant), continued to talk back to us, and had a blatant disregard for customer service. again, it's understandable to have a long meal now and again, but we shouldn't have to beg for drink refills, extra dipping items, side items (extra condiments had to be requested 3 and 4 times before appearing on the table), etc.

altogether an unacceptable customer service experience and i do not recommend going there.
