Our favorite anniversary spot has been with this melting pot for the part couple years. This particular night they ran out of bread for the cheese course. But they went above and beyond to make that up and make our anniversary special. The manager and our server were both amazing people. 10/10 recommend

Loved that OpenTable reservation was easy to make and honored as soon as I arrived. Katie sat me, and was our server. She was engaging, energetic, and versed in the menu. Our meals - Buffalo chicken salad and Birria Ramen - were well plated, strong portion size, and delicious. We sat on the outer courtyard seating, which was both pleasant and more open. Efficient lunch with great service.
