I went to the MeltingPot in Irvine, and the dessert platter was to die for, if not a little rich. That being said, the actual fondue was also good, however, it lacked the substance of a full meal. I love cheese, however, I felt a little queasy after so much rich food, not full. The service at the Irvine location was quite good, and the wait staff explained all the parts and ingredients in each different fondue. I think that it is a great place for a little nosh, and a fabulous place for a rich dessert, but do not go hungry and then eat until you are full, because you will feel more than a little sick. The Lesson: You cannot cheese until you are full, and not feel sick.
Pros: Novelty
Cons: Not a dinner place
