The Melting Pot

This is a certified gluten free restaurant at which we had dined safely before. However, last week after confirming MANY times on both my reservation and with waitress that my child needed to eat gluten free, and after confirming twice that the food put on our table was gluten free, the waitress came back 10 minutes into eating to say that there was a “mix up” and our fondue had gluten. Nothing but a “sorry” was offered. My child was very sick. I would avoid if you have celiac or a gluten allergy.

The chocolate was delicious and the gluten free dessert plate! Omg!!! So good! Gluten free pound cake and brownies and they tasted so good. Also, I loved our server, Max. He was great

My wife has a gluten allergy and this was clearly explained to the waiter, but lo and behold, we received dessert cakes with gluten in them. When we asked the waiter if the desserts were in fact gluten free, he realized he made a mistake and brought us the gluten free desserts (gee thanks!) after she already had a couple of them. The worst part about it was that the waiter didn't seem to care - at all. DON'T GO THERE!!!

Celiac friendly?

No

Food was great. Fun experience. They were completely prepared for gluten free. Make sure you call ahead for a table with 2 burners if anyone in your party is not gluten free. Expensive

Celiac friendly?

Yes

One of our favorites. Make sure the cheese has corn starch and not flour. We bring our own bread. They get theirs from a local bakery and it is not very good.

Expensive, but good. They have a lot of gluten free and a list of drinks that are gluten free.

Felt like a vacation from the gluten free world. They took care of everything and I didn't have to explain anything to them.

Never on my radar, BUT I read an article by Gluten Free Dad about how it is Gluten free safe spot certified by an independent company. We were surprised at how well versed the employees were the variety offered. So far no one has gotten sick. Everything is brought/made in front of you by you and everything was labeled on the menu. The dessert was the best! GF brownie and cookie that weren’t hard as a rock. I doubled checked with the waitress every time and she wasn’t annoyed by my questions!

The waiter was extremely knowledgeable and answered all the questions I had. Almost all of the cheeses could be made gluten-free, they had gluten-free bread to dip in the cheese, and gluten-free brownies and snickerdoodles to dip in the chocolate. Amazing experience and didn’t get sick!

Menu has labels for GF options. When I’m able to have an appetizer, main course AND dessert at dinner I appreciate it. They have GF bread for cheese dip appetizers. And GF brownies for chocolate dip dessert and (for a small up charge) macarons! Don’t sleep on The Melting Pot!

• Good for dairy-free

Wonderful gluten free experience. Very knowledgeable staff and the food was delicious. There’s really barely any difference between the gluten and non gluten platters.

Our waiter seem very well informed. He reviewed the menu with me to ensure that I knew what could be offered gluten-free as food came out to the table. They confirmed what was gluten-free. We had our own pot to cook in separate to the people that we were with, I would definitely eat here again
