The Melting Pot menu contains various cheese fondues, wines, salads, entrees of meat and seafood served with dipping sauces and oil or broth to be cooked in, and chocolate fondues.

With permission from the original owners, Mark, Mike and Bob Johnston opened The Melting Pot of Tallahassee in 1979. As the restaurant expanded its franchise, the menu grew larger. In 1985, the Johnston brothers purchased all rights to the Melting Pot brand. On June 1, 2008, the original location in Maitland closed.[2] The Company currently has one location open in Canada: in Edmonton, Alberta. Their Richmond Hill, Ontario location closed in March 2013. The New Orleans, Louisiana location closed in May 2018. [3] The Syracuse, New York location closed in July 2018.[4] DesignThe restaurants' interiors are designed using dark red and black colors. They are dimly lit; all seating is mostly in booths, with private booths away from the main room. HeadquartersIts headquarters are located in Tampa, Florida. MenuA complete meal features a cheese fondue, a salad, main course and a chocolate fondue for dessert. The four courses are offered individually or as a "4 Course Experience." The 4 Course Experience includes one of several preset entrees, one serving of cheese, one salad, and one serving of chocolate. Main courses are still fondues, but include more typical entrees of meat, poultry, pasta and seafood. The franchise also produces "special-occasion" packages for anniversaries, weddings and other events.{{cn|date=December 2017}} See also{{portal|Companies|Food|United States}}References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.frontburnerbrands.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Nations-restaurant-news.pdf |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2014-01-28 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120610210521/http://www.frontburnerbrands.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Nations-restaurant-news.pdf |archivedate=2012-06-10 |df= }} 2. ^ {{dead link|date=May 2011}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/entertainment_life/food_restaurants/article_e6d36a76-65ab-11e8-b533-f7c5c5374a15.html|title=Melting Pot fondue restaurant closes after 12 years on St. Charles Avenue|author=Ian McNulty|website=The Advocate|accessdate=12 February 2019}} 4. ^[https://www.pressconnects.com/story/news/local/2018/07/16/syracuse-melting-pot-fondue-restaurant-closed/789734002/] {{dead link|date=February 2019}} External links
