• Tex-Mex • Myers Park
Booked 52 times today
Chef Ford Fry and Chef Kevin Maxey, together designed a “Mex-Tex” menu that plays to their own Texan roots, tracing the beginnings of the cuisine to the 1930s, when Mexican cooks first doctored up their dishes to suit a “Gringo” palate with Americanized elements, giving birth to the Tex-Mex dialogue. “Kevin and I wanted to do food we like to eat,” Fry said. “It’s natural for a chef to want to be true to a certain culture, and likewise, we wanted to do authentic Tex-Mex, because it developed where we’re from.”

    Melting Pot is always a great experience. At first they did forget about us and did not seat us until 20 minutes after reservation time plus we got there 15 minutes early. We shook it off because we knew that it was Christmas Eve and it was busy. The food never disappoints. I love coming here.

    My husband and I enjoyed a date night out. We made last minute reservations and were able to snag a table at 8pm. We ordered our usual ranch rings for an appetizer and then both enjoyed a steak dinner. The fillet was cooked perfectly and my husband’s sirloin seasoning was exceptional. Don’t skimp on dessert! We loved the seasonal banana foster bread pudding!

    We recently enjoyed the Feast of the Seven Fishes at Chapter 6, and it was a great dining experience. The pacing of the seven-course meal was well-timed, allowing plenty of time to enjoy each dish without feeling rushed. Our server, Tanner, was friendly and knowledgeable, which made the evening even better. The dishes were all well-prepared and paired nicely with the additional cocktail, making for a satisfying meal. Chapter 6 delivered a pleasant evening overall. We’d definitely recommend it for a special occasion or a unique dining experience!
