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.

Whatever!!! $200

*Service--It takes a while for your server to get your fondu stuff all ready.

*Food--Way too pricy, They don't seem to give you the fair amount of food for the price you pay ( $200 bucks for a family of four--dinner and dessert ) Not worth your money.

*Don't seem to use good quality cheese, even for a non-cheese fan.

SPEND YOUR MONEY ELSEWHERE. Especially If your even thinking about going there for prom or some so called "special occasion". Eat somewhere else, save money, feel better.

  • Pros: New Atmosphere
  • Cons: Not so great. Bit over-rated
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Great food and a romantic atmosphere

by CSMobileUser2 at Citysearch

My husband and I frequent this restaurant especially for special occasions. The food is delicious and the experience is incredible. We usually order " the big night out" which is a little pricey but is worth the splurge ever once in awhile. This restaraunt is always one of my top recomendations. See you there!

Great date or girls night on the town

Reservations are needed for weekends. Plan on a two hour dining experience, don't stuff yourself on the salads even though they are good. I didn't like the Caribbean Cheese Fondue the Wisconsin Trio Cheese Fondue was much better, the Court Bouillon vegetable broth is simple but delish and the Bourguignonne is good I'm not a fan of the Mojo one though. I love the bread selection but wish for a more crusty sourdough. Save room for dessert it's just not the same without it. The bar isn't bad but specialty drinks aren't that fab there.

  • Pros: Great experience, yummy food, fun place to go
  • Cons: Two hours is a must here to really enjoy it. Some waiters are snobby
