The people were very nice and the service was okay. I enjoyed the food, although my husband wasn’t a huge fan. We had a Groupon gift card we used. The biggest downside was how unbelievably cold it was inside the restaurant. I had heels on and my feet actually started to feel numb. My husband and I were huddled together trying to stay warm throughout dinner. I’ve never been in a restaurant that cold before. The music was also very quiet, which made the dining area feel like it had very little privacy. We could easily hear other tables’ conversations, several Times I could hear another table talking about us and later staff looked over and said “I know” to each other. I believe that was because of all the dishes at our table that needed to be picked up. But we were very understanding as our server was new to the team. That made the experience feel a little uncomfortable, especially for a place where you’d expect a more intimate atmosphere. We have been to restaurants around this price range before in the Triangle area, but the ambiance and food is usually updated, more modern, or fancier. Building needs a remodel. We boiled the meat.. Also, they mentioned we had “clean plates” :) not alarming right? I take the plate in hand and it’s literally dirty with a speck of idk what on it and water. DISGUSTING. The vibe is like fancy restaurant experience for the first time if you have never been somewhere nice before and you think it’s fancy because of the price. Overpriced for sure. Overall, the staff was friendly and the service was good, but the freezing temperature and lack of privacy made it very difficult to fully enjoy the experience. Got my dessert to go! :) felt bad about staying past 10 but there were many other tables taking their time in the igloo. Think we spent 2-3 hours freezing in there. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 1

I have a 2-day layover in Raleigh, NC & decided to get some food. Living in France this past year I’ve grown accustomed to the food and ordered the Coq Au Vin. A great mix of flavor and protein options to add to this staple French dish. I also ordered what I will say is one of the best Espresso Martini’s I’ve ever had to accompany my dessert. Dusted with what I imagine to be Cocoa shavings. The bartender Liam did an excellent job with this one. With the help of my waiter Jeff, I ordered the Banana Fosters fondue. C’est incroyable! All I can say is j’adore! This place is a great little gem infusing a mix of cultures and dishes. It truly lives by its namesake as a Melting Pot. Wish I’d gotten footage of my lunch- but I had already dug in before thinking to do so. Apologies. If you’re in the area, this is the place to visit! Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Vegetarian options: Yes.
