Decided to relax and dine here before heading to the airport to fly home... my wife and I arrived when they opened (we were the second folks through the door at 4:00 pm) and found out they were booked solid for dinner due to Sir Paul McCartney performing at Key Bank Arena just a few blocks away. Despite that bit of news, we were offered seats at the bar, where we were lucky enough to be taken care of by Austin. He gave us nothing but top-notch attention, lively conversation, and good advice... not only with menu and drink items, but on quick local visits nearby for good Seattle photo ops! I will tell you this, if you like the idea of fondue and the pace and freedom that this sort of dining is, then come to The Melting Pot to relax and enjoy. The food is delicious, and is served with flair, style, and promptness! But the dining experience was amazingly good as well... every one of the folks I interacted with who were there to help take care of you seemed to genuinely like being there. And they have my thanks!
