I was so impressed with their food and service! I’m the only celiac in a family of five, and this was the best full dining experience I’ve had in a long while.

They made sure I had my own pot, and that my food was all GF, including the bread, the best brownie I’ve ever eaten, the meats, veggies, and sauces. Hunter and Julia, our servers were super helpful and knowledgeable. What they didn’t know, they made sure to double check.

Warning though: it is not cheap! ($200 for three people, including the tip.)

Over all fun experience and the chocolate fondue was great. However, they were not knowledgeable about cross-contamination and accidentally brought out the wrong gluten-containing sauce and food for my meal even thought I told them I had the allergy so I ended up sick.

The server knew exactly what I was talking about when I told her I had celiac disease. She was very knowledgeable about the ingredients in the food. The gluten free options were clearly labeled on the menu. Great experience!

I had a great experience here. When I made my reservation I asked about gf and the guy taking the reservation was very knowledgable. When we got there our waitress was great and the menu was clearly marked for gf with a lot of options.

Went there for a birthday celebration. Wonderful cheese fondue, but the best is the entrees. Peppered steak is amazing when you cook it in the broth. Next time I think I will get all beef and seafood. They are very careful about bring separate fondue cookers for those who are celiac.

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
