- KKarenVirginia •4 reviews5.0Dined on Jun 20, 2025We love fondue, however we always go for the ambiance also. I chose the Melting Pot for my birthday dinner and was not disappointed. Our waitress was excellent and we never felt rushed by her. She took care of all the little extras including offering to pack up our dessert when she heard us saying we just couldn't eat anymore.More infoThe Melting Pot - Newport NewsPrice: Expensive• Fondue• Newport News•4.7
