    Our server and the wait staff were all very helpful and the food was really good. It was a really nice first experience to have with my wife as she had never been there before. The only negative part to our night is that somebody had their child in the booth behind us on an iPad that was blasting the entire time.

    They do not prepare the food at the table anymore. That was part of the experience. It is very pricey.

    The experience of cooking my own food and spending a lot of money to do it was one I will not do again!
    The Melting Pot - BuffaloResponded on May 12, 2025
    Hi Pam, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I am really sorry to hear you didn't like the concept of cooking your entree at the table. I appreciate you giving us a try and keep in mind you can always come in for just cheese, salad and chocolate if that is more suitable for you. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your Mother's Day. Thank you, Jim Materese Owner

    It’s always a great experience, or server was good, he did miss a few drinks. He was polite and kind. Not very attentive towards the end when dropping off our check, did not check our waters, I had to ask a person in my party if they were drinking their water, thankfully she wasn’t.

    Usually we have a good experience but this time we were unimpressed with the food especially all the money we spent.

    Kayla, First off thank you for the review and Happy Birthday! Feedback is extremely important and deeply appreciated. I'm so sorry that your experience fell short on many levels. Your review points out several coachable opportunities for my staff. I do feel awful that your birthday dinner was lackluster. I will reach out to you but don't want to bother you today on the holiday. I will give you a call on Tuesday when I am back in or please feel free to call me on my cell at 716-510-5474 anytime. Best, George Kotsis General Manager

    Smoked out by a table using a cast iron grill. An expensive dinner turned into a great disappointment.
