Casual Chain Restaurants Are Popular Again | Eater

"A fondue restaurant chain, originally founded in Florida in 1975 and long associated with nostalgic, special-occasion dinners, that is staging a comeback: it’s renovating more than 90 older locations and recruiting franchise operators with plans to open as many as 30 new restaurants. The resurgence began around 2021 as diners, eager to socialize after pandemic lockdowns, returned to communal dining experiences." - Amy McCarthy

We were greeted by very friendly hosteses and were seated promptly at our reserved time. We had a very friendly, nice server named Meagan. She was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The manager Micheal was very pleasant and thanked us for coming. The food was very good. We did the big night out. We were full so had our dessert boxed to go. We would definitely go back.

First time to a melting pot and I just gotta say WOW. Starting out our server, George, is one of the best servers I’ve ever had. His voice and tone was absolutely perfect for such an intimate setting, he was full of recommendations, there was never a point where he interrupted, yet he was always there when it was time for the next round. Couldn’t ask for better. That’s just the service. The food was all seasoned perfectly and absolutely delicious. Best location for date night in the area

While we only come to here for special occasions, the Melting Pot is always worth it. Mercedes was our waitress today and while she admitted she is new, you couldn't even tell. She knew the menu fully, steered us in the right direction for our selections, and was both wonderfully friendly and funny. We did all three main courses (cheese, entree, and chocolate) and it was magnificent.

Great place for a unique experience. Only problem we had was that their happy hour drink specials are only good at the bar. Like what? What? Us parental units deserve half of martinis so you know.

Came here for my birthday dinner last night with Sean and boy did he kill it! My family and I are foodies to the max, we order and order and order. We like to eat family style and Melting Pot did amazing with our requests. Sean is hands down one of the best waiters I’ve experienced! So patient, kind and knowledgeable! Melting Pot should be nothing short of honored to have someone like Sean on there team! Food was AMAZING, perfectly prepared. Smores chocolate fondue was to die for! Currently day dreaming about it! Can’t wait to come back, Sean has new regulars!!!!!!

I am from Alabama, down here with my best friend visiting her son. We decided to eat at Melting Pot. The service and food was amazing. Taylor S. was our server. She made sure everything was perfect for us.

I enjoyed the evening with my wife at this restaurant. I made reservation and did not wait a second, we were walked promptly to our booth for two in a quiet little corner secluded from most of the patrons background chatty noise. Drinks scotch on the rock for me and wine for my wife started us off nicely. We did the four course menu which begun with the melted 4 cheese perfectly seasoned the server was pleasant and demonstrated her skills while we chatted about the menu. The breads, bits of vegetables and apple was a good beginner followed by a house salad which I though was excellent. Main Course was Shrimp, Tuna and Duck. The soup base was delicious, I wish I had a small bowl with a spoon to drink some. We boiled our meats, potatoes, cauliflower and broccoli and it was Ok. I get the idea of trying someplace new, but here is the reality, your food is boiled, all the flavors are now in the stock, your sesame seeds are all gone in the bottom of the stock, your seasoning is in the stock. In other words you boil your food in a soup and you don't get to drink the soup. Though the portion of shrimps, duck and tuna were good the flavors were gone so the taste was barely mediocre. An assortment of dips such as teriyaki, curry, blue cheese and a few more were available to conjure up some artificial exotic taste. For me, the value was not there. Finally we had our desert melted chocolate with assorted sweets to dip and eat which we enjoyed the bite size portions. My wife and I had a memorable and enjoyable dinner for our anniversary and nothing was going to ruin our evening. The price! $210. I ordered a Scotch Glenmorenie 10 YO on the rock, the price was $14 and an additional $7 for on the rock. Listen! I would spend $1000 for a special evening with my wife but when a business charge $21 for a drink when a 750 ml bottle cost $32 that is the extremity of ridiculous overpricing. Here is my take away from the melting pot. The service is excellent, the starter is very good, the salad is great, the main course not so good and the desert was sweet as it should be and price was much higher than the value. This is just my honest opinion, don't let anyone tell you what taste you should like or what taste good.

Tried this restaurant for the first time on Feb 8th, a Saturday evening, and it was fantastic! Excellent food, great service by a young lady named Callie and the young lady she was training. We made reservations, and we were seated as soon as we walked in. The food was fresh, and there was so much of it. The desserts were awesome too! Such a fun time. I highly highly recommend this restaurant!

The server was pleasant and explained everything in a way that made the place exciting. we were able to customize our desserts for a wonderful dining experience. I enjoy going for the cheese fondue by iitself, or going for dessert, by itself. This restaurant is a perfect date night restaurant with soft lighting and attention to intimate detail.

Deb likes this place and we were close to this one since we were here for a cruise. Note: they do NOT accept the Yelp 10% checkin coupon. Not sure how Yelp can offer this without the business consent but a manager said no and they have no relationship with Yelp or any other coupon offer. Had reservations and arrived early but we were still seated pretty quick. Table was nice and decorated with rose petals. Our server was great and seemed happy that we were 'frequent shoppers'. Orders in and drinks ordered. However after the cheese and salad course we did wait a long time between courses. So the Wisconsin tirio was really good. So many good flavors. Loved the cauliflower with the cheese the most. Next I had the blue cheese salad with spinach. Delicious! Our 3rd course had steak, shrimp and chicken with all the great sides. Can't complain about the cook as it was us!! Pretty full by the time we got to the chocolate course so that was mostly packed up for later. Love the MP and this one was really good. A couple little things did not take away from our experience.

Bartender who was a pleasure (sorry I forgot his name) made the experience. He made sure my son & I were taken care of. We got there about 5 mins before HH was over. He got the apps in as well as my cocktail. Most of the cocktails are sweet. I prefer spicy or tangy. The one I tried, I enjoyed. The lobster quesadilla & margarita pizza were both tasty. My son would say the best part of the evening was dessert. Restroom was clean. We'll be back, my son wants to order the cheese fondue.

Great service every time I've come in! The servers are all so kind and are very attentive! If you want a new neighborhood haunt, they have $6 martinis for happy hour daily and half off cheese fondue! Nick the Bartender is the absolute best! I recommend the alpine cheese and pepper steak on a cast iron as pictured!

Not sure why, But our cheese fondue just tasted like wine. I couldn't taste the cheeses at all. Also when we came, the stoves all weren't working except for one. The dessert fondue was really good though. We went for happy hour and we were the only ones there.

Had a fantastic experience with my family. Our server Shawn made the evening very special and provided us with great service the entire time we dined. The spinach and artichoke cheese was a favorite at our table. They are also doing a fantastic partnership with St. Judes this time of year! 100% Will be back!!

We went here and tbh it was a huge disappointment! Don't let them out you in a little tiny cube next to the window. It gets hot, is cramped. The good was sub par - the steak platter was all little pieces of round steak and the cheese platter had mostly bread. The one saving grace was the chocolate. Just go for desert maybe - also the wait staff was a nightmare - we had the manager running around trying to help - it was not good

It's been a really long time since I was back and of course the service has not gotten any better. From 6:45 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and our waiter did not fill our drinks once the entire time luckily there was extra water glasses on the table next to us. It was like the waiter disappeared for half the night. On this trip the bathrooms look like they hadn't been cleaned all day because it was only 6:45 when I got there so you think they would have been cleaned about 45 minutes ago before the dinner rush. The worst part is that I bring out the pot of broth they're acting like it took forever to make a pot of broth. As if the consumer is clueless that there's a giant steam table for 50 gallons of the broth that they heat up every day and scoop into your pot and bring it to your table to heat up further when the waiter says that the order is up. So in the waiter doesn't put your order up he pretends like they just got done making the broth from pork bones right before he picked it up and had to sift out the bones. I'm sure the business owners will apply again with a bunch of nonsense blah blah blah about how I don't understand fondue. The bottom line is what it takes me this long to have fondue at my friend's house there's also many cocktails lots of music and good laughs entire time. I think the corporate version of fondue doesn't work out the way the original designer of this restaurant had planned out. At this point because I had the same but worse experience from 4 years ago I'm starting to think it's just poor management at this location but this location has baby so salty but I'm unwilling to try other locations when I'm out on vacation. Overall I'll say it again! This spot is only good for dessert! Bring a date here after a nice dinner and dip some delicious sugary treats and a pot of hot chocolate. This is definitely the type of dessert place that I have your dates begging to hang out next weekend. Still not a great spot for dinner the broth haven't improved so your fish tastes like boiled fish and your steak tastes like ghetto sous vida

I hadn't been back to The Melting Pot in probably 8 years and I was so disappointed on how much the quality has gone down. It took forever to get the food - I think we were there for 3+ hours. I ordered the California salad and it was not great. The dressing tasted like a very artificial strawberry flavor and the salad barely had any toppings. We also ordered the steak lovers fondue and I was also very disappointed. You cook your beef in broth so it takes longer to cook. The steaks were also not very tender and flavor wasn't quite there. Honestly the only good thing about the whole dinner was the dessert. I would go back to get just a chocolate fondue. It's hard to get that wrong.

We have gone to the Melting Pot for years, usually on our wedding anniversary, across the country from Irvine, CA to Reston, VA and this location was easily one of the best. Make no mistake, it's a fondue/ cook your own kitsch place but if that's what you are looking for this is one of the best. The service with George was so good we will definitely ask for him when we decide to return. The service was great and the food was fresh. Try them on for a change of pace and ask for George.

Amazing food, I dined alone and it was incredible, David was an amazing server very attentive and kind, he explained everything very well, the ambiance was relaxing and it had a very poised atmosphere, I highly recommend the land and sea platter as well as the flaming turtle, incredible food and well worth the money.

Took my 6yr old son here for a special dinner and he loved it. We requested a private booth which they had reserved for us. The cheese and chocolate courses were great. Love the Yin Yang martini! He had a wonderful time and was the perfect age for his first visit.

I love the MP (I've worked at a couple too), so this review is bittersweet. Came here on Mother's Day and was really disappointed. The AC was broke (told to us by an employee) and had been having problems for at least a week, so it was like a sauna here. This is pretty unacceptable on one of the busiest nights of the year. Additionally, the overall appearance shows that some attention is needed. Next to our table was metal trim taped to the wall but lose; bathrooms had bad drywall repairs, faucet not working, display areas removed....for the amount we paid for dinner ($576 for 5 people) this place should look too notch.

We decided to go the day after Valentine's this year thinking it wouldn't be quite as busy. It was still a hot spot the day after, but our waitress Taylor didn't skip a beat! She said how "sweet" we were for complementing her service, she made it really fun!

The Melting Pot (International franchise - 1 in Edmonton, Canada)- Viera, FL-4.5 Stars Looking unflatteringly at my random name generator, I was reminded that I forgot to remove chains from my parameters and lo and behold if one wasn't staring back at me, rather smugly I might add. There it was, just sitting there, The Melting Pot. The Genie of the Generator decreed it and who am I to disagree with a Genie?? To that end, I climbed in the Big Boy Mobile and pointed her north toward Viera and my dining destination. As a Gen Xer, I was familiar with Fondue as the country went through this Fondue craze in the 70s. I swear every dinner party I went to as a child someone had a pot of oil or cheese or chocolate on a burner with stuff to dip. As such, I have to say, I was looking forward to sampling their wares. I was here long ago when they first opened, and I have to say it was outstanding, but then the franchise was sold and the corner-cutting began (sadly). Anyway, for those that are unfamiliar with Fondue, you order your chosen protein and cooking method and they then bring the food and pot to your table. Basically, all the server has to do is bring you raw ingredients and be charming. Jordan was just that friendly and on the ball I mean hey, it's not like I am gonna complain about how my food is cooked. My waiter was Jordan and he was very personable and on point. I asked for a watermelon cooler to quench my thirst along with a Wisconsin Cheddar starter, and a three-course fondue of Filet, Shrimp and Herb-crusted chicken breast cooked Bourguignonne style sans batter and panko. It wasn't all that long before Jordan returned with the Wisconsin Cheddar, and my drink. I would be remiss here if I didn't mention their outstanding selection of non-alcoholic drinks, and while I went with the Watermelon Cooler, it was a hard decision to reach. The cooler was extremely pleasant to taste. It rang the bell. It wasn't overly sweet and had a very smooth finish leaving a delectable melony taste lingering ever so slightly. The Wisconsin Cheddar was so good, I had Jordan bring another plate of fresh fruits and veggies to immerse in this delicious concoction of melted Fromage. This consisted of Aged Cheddar, Emmenthaler, Sam Adams Boston Lager, Garlic and assorted spices. Delizioso! The key to any good fondue is the dipping sauce. Yes, the quality of protein is important, but that can sometimes be masked by the use of an outstanding dipping sauce. While the filet, shrimp and herb-crusted chicken were very good (the crust is firm and diverse) the sauces really are the stars here. The four sauces are a Curry Sauce, Horseradish Sauce, Steak Sauce and a Gorgonzola Port Sauce. Each sauce was an archetype of its genre, so to speak. They were all quite spectacular in their own right. The Big Boy Says, "If you're in the mood to go out to cook, you can't go wrong with the drink menu and the dipping sauces to be found at your nearest Melting Pot locale" #bigboy #bigboydiningout

Kayla, our waitress was the best ever. She made our Valentines Day special. She was so personable and friendly. We already love the Melting Pot but she made our night. We will request her next time we come. Thank you Kayla!! Needed to add David. He not only supported our server, he stopped to speak to us. Treated us like we were the only customers there. Thank you David!!!

Our experience was painful. It was 2 /12 hours. We had a reservation and got sat 10 min past. It took 25 min for drinks and my friend ordered a makers mark neat and had ice in it. Went to the bar to get a new drink because our server was MIA. Our server admitted he only started 4 days in and had no Knowledge of anything products. Food was good. Ambience was too dark compared to other melting pots I have gone to. We sat without cheese for a bit and had to flag another server down to find our server. We asked for water 4 times and finally got it. He was a kind guy just not made for being a server. training is severely needed all around the restaurant. Manager never came to touch our table. To top it off we were with another couple and our checks were switched.

The service was good. Our waiter was friendly. I had never been to a Melting Pot before, but I had an idea of what it would be like going into it (most of my family had been before). I really enjoyed the cheese course, and the dipper items were good. I didn't care for the entrees, or the vegetable broth too much. The banana's foster dessert was delicious, and so was the original chocolate. I asked for more brownies after our table ran out. Yum! It definitely is something to experience and to go to on special occasions.

It is understandable with getting there at 9:15 that our service may not be as great since they were getting ready to close at 11. However there were three of us and we were prepared to be in and out, our server purposely took about 30 minutes between each course to bring us the next and had us sitting waiting (we wanted to get up and leave before the entrees even made it out) because we had been waiting so long. The food was terrible and stale. She turned our hour and a half experience into 3 hours and then spent half the time singing at the top of her lungs in the kitchen and we could hear her from our table as we were sitting around waiting for her service. Worst experience ever, will not be going back.

My husband and I wanted to try something new for our anniversary dinner while in the area. We got a late reservation and unfortunately where a touch late. No one seemed to care and made sure we had a table that we found comfortable. Our server was a young lady Eli I believe. She was excellent, attentive but not in our space, the manager served us our bottle of wine. We had the dinner for two, I really enjoyed it. It was fun easy, went well with our wine. The cheese was tasty, salad fresh and main "courses" were easy and diverse. Would highly recommend.

Had not been to a Melting Pot since before the pandemic and never here in Florida. It was GREAT to get back for a 25th Birthday for a coworker who had NEVER been to a Melting Pot. The entire experience was AMAZING....but especially our server, Morgan. She was attentive, personable and knowledgeable. Anyone who has been to a Melting Pot knows the servers are more than just serving the food they are explaining the whole experience while also enhancing the experience. Morgan was the BEST!! Sure to go back and request Morgan.

Not a fan of paying money to cook my own food at a restaurant but I visited with family to celebrate a birthday and Christmas. Our server was very nice and well the staff informed on everything here. The food was blah and not worth the price. Save your money and just come here for dessert.

We had a great experience at The Melting Pot! The Alpine Swiss cheese fondue is amazing and we recommend the teriyaki beef and the duck along with the Coq au Vin for the main course. Tristan was a great server, very friendly, attentive, fun and professional. We would definitely eat here again.

The service wasn't up to my expectations of being a melting pot guest for over 20 years , couldn't get a refill to save our lives .. the food was dreadfully slow and the smoking burning pot ruined our dinner .. the dessert was the only redeeming course . I don't think I would ever return after spending 250.00 for some tiny bits of meat !

Excellent Service and good food but it would be nice for the price to have your food come out cooked. LOL. We had a great waiter and lots of fun with the family. The pick three or four is excellent and they allow substitutions. As far as disabilities go they are very accommodating. They have plenty of room in the dining area, bar and restrooms for any type of wheelchair or mobility device. A little pricey but nice for a special occasion or once in a while. The best part of the night is by far the chocolate fondue at the end of your meal. Many many choices of chocolate and add ins. Overall a really fun evening but I prefer going someplace where my meat doesn't come out raw. YUK.

I had left a very dissatisfied review last week and I first and foremost would like to apologize to the staff. Jason, the owner of The Melting Pot located in town center addressed my concerns via a phone call. I myself would find it hard to talk to someone that had sent such a negative view, but Jason handled everything well and talked to me like a professional, acknowledging my issues and discussing solutions. Now on to the important part the food! Today's experience reminded me of why Melting Pot had always been and will continue to be my go to spot for a special meal. We decided on the complete experience for two, I got the steak lovers and my wife created her own. We got the spinach and artichoke dip, it was prepared perfectly at our table side by our server, the cheese was delicious and creamy. The California salad followed and did not disappoint, especially with the addition of Melting Pots garlic and wine seasoning! We got the bourguignonne cooking style for the meat and the pecan bourbon for the chocolate. Everything we ate was delicious and well prepared, what you should expect from melting pot especially this location!

Date night with my hubby 4 stars bc it wasn't busy & we still went a good portion of the night without being checked out (we did dine last week, not today). It's a chain restaurant & you cook the food yourself, so the food is the same quality anywhere you go. Lol. The missing star is solely due to the service & is repeatedly asking or reminding our waitress which extra items we did prefer. I wouldn't let the this experience prevent me from going in the future.

What a complete let down my experience was. I reserved a table for a graduation celebration, party of 6. We were sat around 3:45 p.m. quite early, pretty empty restaurant. I had been to a melting pot previously, however the rest of the party hadn't. The server did not explain the process well at all. Granted this is a place that things do take time, esp cooking meats, however the server just would not come back for looong periods of time. She prepared one broth, then started the mojo broth, instructed us she was not finished and needed to add citrus, so we couldn't start the vegetables. No exaggeration, comes back 15 min later with a wine refill and said "I was getting a refill" so she STILL couldn't finish the broth. I'm just extremely let down by how the whole process went. There was zero urgency in the waitress and no excuse for leaving us looking around waiting for her throughout the entire meal. Wasted $300 and I just couldn't wait to leave. It took us 3 hours (3 HOURS!) to get to the chocolate fondue and I was just so done that we just told her we didn't want it and bring out the bill, which took her another 15 minutes to bring out. Save your money, go eat somewhere else, don't risk getting the same service as we did.... the food was nothing to brag about, so loss cause in that department.

Be prepared for an adventure - this dining experience is unique. As well as potentially time consuming and expensive. At this particular restaurant the indoor lighting was very dark and inconsistent, so I would highly recommend the outdoor patio. But the servers were amazing and the food was top notch!

Oh, my. First, let me say that this used to be my husbands and my "spot". We came here at least once a week, sat at the bar and sometimes with one of our favorite servers, and it was heavenly. HOWEVER, when it changed owners and management, something went very wrong. All "Decorum" is long gone. And we are not people who require upscale- tiny "dive" restaurant are some of our favorites. But the service at the bar for dinner tonight was absolutely incompetent, and that is being very positive. There was only one other couple at the entire inside and outside bar. When our bartender delivered our salads, she apologized for not delivering us "rolled silverware" because they hadn't had time to roll it, and handed us forks. We did not receive rolled napkin/silverware/skewers EVER, and only were handed skewers 4 minutes AFTER our raw meat/fish was delivered. We used tiny bar napkins as our lap napkins all night. When we asked if they still had kettle chips, we were answered with a yes, and then delivered tortilla chips. Our bartender would disappear for at least 10 minutes at a time, we were there for at least 2 hours and saw her for a total of 20 minutes if that. She was "training" a young man, who quite frankly I felt sorry for, because she shouldn't have been training anyone. The food was tasty, but there is no longer any quality control- we receive portions of steak/fish/pork from tiny to huge. The Caesar salad was mediocre with wilted romaine, and sweet pine nuts rather than the menu described parmesean crusted pine nuts. We didn't receive any better service than we would have at McDonalds, which is incredibly sad for me to say, as this was always a favorite place of ours. What a shame.

Nothing like being ignored and then having to get up and go to the bar to get a drink and then being served a disgusting watered down dirty martini. To make matters worse I waited and waited and waited for my bill. I was seriously contemplating just walking out but I'm not a thief. I hunted them down and paid for my $13 disgusting martini. I went with the intention of ordering some food but not with that service I was getting. Sorry Melting Pot this visit was a FAIL!!

What an overall disappointing experience. For Christmas, I bought my wife a $100 gift card, that came with a year's worth of "free" chocolate fondue, one for each month. Side note here, it's not really "free" in that you have to purchase $30 in food/drink AND it can only be used Monday-Thursday. We made reservations for Sunday afternoon lunch before we realized the chocolate couldn't be redeemed today. OK - no big deal - still looking forward to cheese and salad, as we haven't been here in over a year. First problem - we wanted 2:00 PM, but were told there were no tables. That was strange, in that, when we arrived for our 2:45 PM reservation, there were only 3 other tables filled in the entire restaurant. Maybe there's a staffing shortage, though. Because from the time we arrived until the time we left 1.5 hours later, we were left waiting for long periods of time on several occasions: - From the time we sat down until we were able to place our order, about 15 minutes. - From the time we ordered, the waitress turned the burner on, and we finally got our cheese cooked so we could eat (we were hungry!), another 25 minutes. - From the time someone else cleared our table (someone else, our waitress was nowhere to be found) to when we got the check, another 20 minutes (I jokingly asked my wife if I should call the restaurant to remind them we were still there!). So, all in all....very slow and poor service. The waitress didn't go over any specials, suggestions, etc. She DID mention that today was the apparent last day for some type of cheese fondue that had been served over the Holidays. My wife and I were really interested in that, but this wasn't even mentioned until our cheese was cooked and ready to eat. The food was just "OK", nothing special. In addition to the cheese fondue (good) and salads (good, but smaller than we remembered), we ordered the charcuterie board and were VERY disappointed. 4 crackers of some type, a sampling of mustard, a few chunks of sausage and a few bites of prosciutto, along with a couple of small pickles and some type of peppers (?) - none of which were explained. So not worth the $12. I rarely write reviews, so you know when I do, I've either been wowed by the product/service OR was so underwhelmed that I had to speak out. Unfortunately for Melting Pot of Viera, it's the latter. Even with the "free" chocolate fondue coupons, I doubt we'll be returning to this location. We'll pick another in Orlando in the future.

Our waitress Megan was the absolute best. Exceptional service while training a new worker. The managers are friendly and make sure you are having a great meal. The food is always amazing (if you cook it right :) ). If you are looking for a great experience and top-notch service, you should come here either by yourself or others.

Kayla was absolutely an amazing server!! She was so attentive and kind during our meal as well as making such delicious recommendations! She recommended a shaken chocolate milk drink to me to try and although they were out of ice cream, I am excited to try it next time I come here! She also recommended the banana foster chocolate which was amazing and she brought so many extra bananas when I asked for it! Overall, Kayla was amazing the two times we have had her as a server and help make this meal so yummy and memorable. Thank you!!!!

We've been to a few locations within Florida, so we figured we'd try this location. We made a reservation online, which was immediately changed via e-mail, not once but twice after we changed it back. The timing difference was 30 minutes. The problem was it made our reservation almost too late for us to eat, but we kept it anyway. Upon early arrival, we waited a little bit for a hostess. We told her we were slightly early for our reservation. She proceeded to tell us the same, as if we didn't already know? We were asked to wait. While waiting, I used the restroom and noticed they were mildly busy, but noticed they had a few tables open. When I came back to wait we still proceeded to wait at least five more minutes. Once seated at our table we were probably greeted by a server Kate. She appeared to be a seasoned waitress with a great attitude. We put in our orders all upfront since we had ordered a special where you put in all orders at once. For cheese we opted for the classic alpine. This is one of our favorites because it has white wine garlic and nutmeg with the cheese. We also had the coq au vin for our cooking style. We hadn't had this cooking style before, but we did enjoy how garlicky it was with the burgundy wine, mushrooms, and scallions. Lastly, we opted for the pure chocolate fondue and chose the dark chocolate. For some reason we felt that the quantity of the food was less than prior visits, we weren't sure if this was due to supply chain issues or if it was more of a price point for the restaurant itself. All in all, we had a great experience and enjoyed the options that we chose. We look forward to returning to try some thing different next time.
