The Melting Pot was heavily damaged in the Nashville Christmas Day Bombing. We miss you already! Please Don't Forget About Us - We'll be back.

The Melting Pot Restaurant in Nashville is where fun is cooked up fondue style.

Our Historic Second Avenue cellar in downtown Nashville is close to all downtown hotels, Broadway Honky Tonks, Nissan Stadium, Bridgestone Arena, Acsend Amphitheater, TPAC, Schermerhorn, Music City Center, The Country Music Hall of Fame.

The experience is great in a group and romantic for couples. The intimate cellar location provides a casually elegant, intimate atmosphere. The relaxing four-course experience begins with a cheese fondue prepared table side. A fresh salad follows while your entrée pot heats up. You’ll simmer a variety of tantalizing meats, seafood and vegetables. Each morsel is hot, fresh and delicious and all entrées are accompanied by an array of dipping sauces to add to the flavorful fun. Chocolate fondue is the finale.

I went for my birthday. Six of the other in attendance have never been. We also had two of them were children. It was phenomenal as always. The two little ones, 11 & 6 loved it! Of course the chocolate fondue was a hit! The adults loved it as well! Well worth the price. Our server, I unfortunately don’t remember her name, however she was amazing! The little one said he gives the food a 1,000,000 out of 10. And let me say he was a picky eater, however he loved his chicken!

Brooke our server was wonderful. When we were about half finished a family with twins about 8 and a younger child about 4 were seated across from us. They were very loud and boisterous jumping up running around I suppose to the bathroom. We tried to finish quickly and leave. The parents had to separate the children once from squabbling and the mother got between them.

This was our first time at The Melting Pot. We chose this location to celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint! We are already looking forward to our next visit and hoping to make it a yearly anniversary stop. We did the complete Fondue experience for two and it was PHENOMENAL. Our waitress was so sweet in helping us figure out how to enjoy the full experience. She also made sure to bring us a plate with "Happy 9th Anniversary" wrote in chocolate. It was a sweet touch to the end of the night. The Flaming Turtle was the best dessert I have ever had. I could go on and on about this place and the amazing experience we had. Keep up the good work!!

Had a wonderful time, as usual! Brought a friend who had never been before, and explained she was standing in for my spouse who could not take me out for an anniversary dinner. Our amazing server brought out a Happy Anniversary plate with dessert so we could send photos back to my spouse. Loved every minute and appreciate the efforts made in light of COVID.

The Melting Pot as a chain is my favorite place. We visit different locations when we travel. This location is different than most. It is downstairs so it is like a cozy cave. Even during this trying epidemic the food and service were outstanding. Love this place.
