I come once or twice a year, and since I say on my reservation that I’m gluten-free, usually I have no issues. My latest trip was terrible, though. I had it on the reservation, I told the host, and I told the server — and the other person I was with went GF with me. However, every dish was spiked in some way. I almost thought that they were doing it on purpose, really.

Excellent experience. All the staff is GF knowledgeable. The GF is really good. Definitely a safe place to go. Coming back next time in Tallahassee.

Very knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination. They have gf bread for the cheese fondue and gf pound cake and brownies for the chocolate. They are trained by the gluten intolerance group.

Great for dessert!! The gluten free dessert menu has pound cake and brownies on it!! Although they don't give you a separate fondue pot so make sure everyone orders the gluten free plate so there's no cross contamination

This is a great restaurant for a special occasion. It’s so great to have so many gf options for each course of fondue, including bread, and desserts! Just don’t use the gluten dippers with your gf fondue and you’re good to go!

This was my first time trying fondue and I cannot say enough about the great experience I had here. There are an enormous number of gluten-free options and the servers are well trained about Celiac Disease. Some of them even have Celiac themselves. Ours guided us step-by-step through a four course meal (cheese fondue with GF bread, salad, main course fondue with multiple dipping sauces, and dessert fondue). Everything was delicious but the dessert course was out of this world! The dippers for the chocolate included celiac safe snickerdoodle cookies, chocolate brownies, marshmallows, strawberries, and bananas. It was a feast! It’s pricey but for a special occasion or just a-la-carte, I highly recommend you go.

My third experience here and the best yet. The waiter was knowledgeable. Everything came separately and my family worked out a system so that we could share the fondue evenly. The bread was good "sourdough" and the chocolate fondue dippers were varied. Overall a great experience.

See update below original comment.

Took my daughter for the first time and was blown away with their gluten free selection and knowledge. I spent dinner saying “we can’t eat that” and always got the reply “it’s gluten free”. Menu is clearly marked. We are also vegetarian usually making gluten free eating tricky. Not here. Best dining experience in a long time! I cannot wait to do it again. The Melting Pot will be our new go to restaurant!

Update: we went last Sunday 10/12/2024 and despite telling everyone who would listen we were gluten free everything we ordered came with gluten. Took two hours for dinner because we were constantly waiting. Good thing I knew what shouldn’t be there because they were oblivious. Called the manager and told her the next day. The owner offered us $20 odd the next meal. Ridiculous.
