The Melting Pot

Fun experience meal! Waiter (Gavin) was super knowledgeable about GF. The entire menu (minus pot stickers, mushroom ravioli and teriyaki steak) was gluten free. All cheese fondue was (or could be made GF) Gluten free bread available on the cheese course. Every salad was GF. They brought us our own GF dessert board with brownies and chocolate chip shortbread, marshmallows, strawberries and bananas. The chocolate fondue was all GF (there was one that had cookie crumbles but stated that could be left off)

Waiter was fantastic and everything tasted great. He made suggestions on what to order and made sure we knew what meats would have to be subbed out. Dessert fondue came with gluten free pound cake and a gluten free brownie.

Very fun! Very knowledgeable and careful of cross contamination. In order for my son who has celiac to participate, we all had to eat GF. We did not mind but, the bread was terrible. Meat, sauces and dessert were delicious! Very expensive. Approximately $50 per person to eat then add drinks and tip...

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Their gluten free menu is extensive and I really didn't feel like I was missing out at all. They have gluten free beer to substitute for regular beer for their cheese course and yummy gluten free salads. I would highly recommend for celiacs to come here but only if everyone in your party is willing to do everything gluten free. If not there would be cross-contamination all over the place. I was there with two non-gluten free people and they also didn't feel like they were missing out because the gluten free bread and dessert dippers were really good! Just make sure to specify with your server that you want all gluten free things to dip. Great food and great service!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free food was clearly marked and tasted delicious. The staff is extremely accommodating and pleasant to be around. Definitely will go to again when in the cities next.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food is delicious, the GF options are plenty, however I felt rushed through my meal and it was less of the "experience" that I enjoy at other Melting Pots

They were out of gf bread which was unfortunate. They made up for it by cooking my pot separately so that I didn't get crumbs in my pot. I have celiac so this was a must. They were understanding but didn't seem to be as educated as I had hoped.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I went to the Melting Pot with a group of friends. In order for this to be gluten free, you must order separate from everyone and ask everyone else not to get gluten containing items. It doesn't feel very good in a large crowd.

I ordered a side salad and emphasized that it had to be gluten free, they brought it out and presented it to me with croutons.

There was a vegan in the group, he got a salad, they brought his out with cheese.

Terrible service, terrible knowledge about gluten free and cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

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!

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
