In Short – Booths equipped with tabletop fondue pots are clustered together inside the intimate dining room. Start with a cheese fondue, including an assortment of breads, veggies and fruits for dipping. Entrees include lobster, center-cut filet, fish, chicken and vegetarian selections served with a variety of dipping sauces. For dessert, try the flaming turtle, a mix of chocolate and caramel flambéed tableside, served with nut-covered marshmallows, fresh fruit, pound cake, brownies and cheesecake.
Great Experience
by Twain55
This place is alot of fun. It's great for date and the food is good.
Be prepared to spend 2-3 hours there. Also, be prepared to spend around $100. (for two)
Too pricey for the average couple to go more than once or twice a year.
- Pros: Fun
- Cons: Pricey
A Fon-Don't
by Galimine
I visited this place the other day on a date, the fond memories and grease burns will last for sometime.
We wanted to try something new, so my date thought fondue is a must-do! Our server was nice and well versed on the menu items. My guy orders the cooking method "Bourguignonne European-style fondue in
cholesterol-free canola oil." This is basically a cauldron of cooking oil used to fry up our plate of raw items. Problem was that we were seated at a defective table, with no setting to control the heat!!! The oil got extremely hot and everything we placed in the cooking vessel created a sizzling, rolling boil of oil that spattered, burning my arm and scorching our food. I shrieked in shock as plumes of steam puffed an S.O.S. to our waiter from our dining cubicle. The waiter turned our stove top off (which did not work 'cause it was broken) and moved us to another booth to start the cooking experience all over again. The manager apologized and brought a complementary lobster tail for us to share. Now this next cooking vessel was set to a very low heat by their staff to be on the safe side. Our food took FOREVER to cook, but me & my date chatted to make the time pass. We were there 'till closing slowly cooking up our little morsels of meat. It was 8 PM when we arrived and by 11PM we were on our dessert chocolate entree. Just me and my date and the ambiance of a tired staff, vacuuming floors and clearing tables. Overall, my date paid over $100 for this experience. What a night!
- Pros: Yummy decadent desserts.
- Cons: Burn a whole in your wallet & your skin!
Way Over Price

I don't mind paying for good food, but this was not good...it was terrible and highly overpriced. I will not be going here again, once was enough. The service is good, the food was nonexsistent and very time consuming. I you are looking to try something different once, okay but if you think you are going to get a good full filling meal wrong place to go. Fondues are easy and can be made at home for special gathering...and cheaper too.
