"I went to the melting pot for the first time on Friday 2/23 after having quite an awful day. Let me tell you, my visit to the melting pot completely turned my day around!! My reservation with my sister was for 8pm and due to unforeseen circumstances (I got into a car accident) I wasn’t able to make it until 10pm. Alexis, one of the managers greeted me with a smile at the door and sat us without hesitation She was sooo friendly and sweet!! Alexis had heard about our situation and was determined to make our day better. Our server, Phil was amazing. He had such a great personality and was very attentive and fun, we loved him! The food and drinks were delicious, and the experience was so interesting. I would recommend the melting pot to anyone! To top off the night Phil even brought out a cute plate that said sisters night out to celebrate our “sisters date”. All of the generosity and warmth of your staff was completely unexpected and really made everything so much better. You have a great team!!"

"This eatery staff: Billy, Holly Ashley ROCK! We drove 27 miles to discover what great reviews about the menu and staff. Everything was awesome and so much more. We ordered Mac Cheese breakfast ???? topped with an egg $9) and side of Texas French Toast which was a tad chewy along with the 3 topping choice omelette plate of spinach, pork roll and cheese. Fresh and tasty, side of real home sliced potatoes and rye toast, real butter. Coffee was fresh and hot! Holly was personable pleasant. Ashley was roving about making sure everyone was happy and satisfied with their food. Billy was front and center behind the window at the helm preparing the delicious food!! Small place with big hearts. I paid forward to a young mother of 1 1/2 and a young father of 2 paid forward to us. All in one breakfast encounter. The Lord is Great! This hometown place served up more than food. It?s warm embrace amongst diners shone bright that morning."

"April 2022 Tasty french onion soup. Tacos are loaded with meat and Flavor. Yummy cheese fries. Late night menu after 10pm Jan 2022 The best Chefs Salad I've had in a long time. The perfect amount of julienne cold cuts and cheese. Fresh green leafy lettuce and eggs, onion and plenty of 1,000 island dressing. The hot wings were fantastic. It was a Friday night and it was packed with people. Kitchen was fast and efficient. Staff very attentive. Dec 2021 We went on a Wednesday night and it was crowded. The staff is friendly and hard working. The kitchen is slow,so if you're in a hurry you may want to ask how long it will take for your meal to come out. The food was very good and portions generous. We had the breaded wings which were excellent. I had the Cucumber detox, it was light and refreshing. They have TVs so you can watch the game. Loud music with a good playlist."

"I always enjoy your burgers. But I have to tell you I do not like the rolls at all. The roll is very important I know the roll served with the burger is the new fad but it’s not a burger roll to me. Sorry to say but I thought you want opinions. Every else was great as always."

"Guy at the counter was friendly, about 15 min wait for 2 people, and amazing food, I got the General Tao's chicken with pork fried rice, the chicken was cooked to perfection, only reason its not 5 stars is there was some waiting but also the food was worth it. Amazing prices, its one of the only places around here where you can get 2+ meals for 10 ish dollars"

"In my opinion this is the best pizza in the area. I’ve been here a few times and 8/10 times my food was cooked well outside of one time I ordered pickup and my pizza was burnt on one end. For ABE, Reading area, this place is my favorite for pizza and it’s BYOB. Rose was very good to us as well"

"I love going here for lunch! Lines are almost always long but food is good and it’s not a bad place to grab a snack! I love this place specially because I get the 5 piece grilled nuggets here for my Pup and they always include a lot of napkins so I can clean the nuggets before feeding Ally her snack! Always friendly smiling faces and they are kind to give a little bowl for me to put Ally’s water in so she can have a drink with her meal! Pic of Ally for tax lol she loves chicken!"

"Abe was the most kind and accommodating host! We arrived very hungry just 5 minutes before closing time. Abe greeted us with a warm smile and his loving and wonderful spirit. I was visiting from out of state and needed to buy fine bulgur to make Tabbouleh for a potluck. Aci Halal was one of the only Mediterranean markets still open. The cozy restaurant was full of happy customers. Abe cleared a table for us and treated us like family. The Mediterranean food was the best I've ever had! I am from SLC and have been to many Mediterranean restaurants. The lentil soup was light and flavorful with hints of lemon. The shepherd's salad with feta was amazing. The baba ghanoush was creamy. The eggplant in tomato sauce had all the right flavors. The warm bread with roasted sesame seeds was delicious. This place is a gem full of warmth and delicious food. And by the way, ladies - Abe is single and one of the nicest men I've ever met. You won't go hungry or feel unloved here. And make sure to try the rice pudding - it was hands down the best I've ever had. A surgeon at the next table even said that an Egyptian doctor he works with claims Aci Halal has the most delicious and authentic food in the Lehigh Valley. My mom and I are Pennsylvania Dutch and we both loved the food and our overall experience. It truly made our day and gave us a blessed memory to cherish. Thank you, Abe!"

"the bad service around the clock waited 15 minutes after sitting on the server to come table. Slowly slowly had to ask for cutlery several times, drinks some of which never came) ordered a beer that never came. had to take home several times. - It's just bad. when the manager was confronted, by two other tables next to me) I let them know. I felt that they were talking out and then they offered a dessert as a comp for problems. I was charged when I got the bill and asked to remove it. Eating was okay, but not so hot. I eat out slot and probably never had a service as bad as this."

"It is a sweet spot for an authentic greek experience. Brownie points for BYOB. A lot of options for non vegetarian and enough options for vegetarian too. We ordered Sparta's chicken which was realllyyyy good! Didn't get to try Baklava because the portions are big. Overall food is delicious but the service can get better."

"A group of us recently dined at Fair Grounds restaurant for dinner. Towards the end of our meal, my wife ordered two after-dinner drinks on the rocks. Upon receiving the bill, we were surprised to see a $2.50 charge for each drink for the ice. It was disappointing that the waitress did not inform us of this additional charge when the drinks were ordered, and there was no mention of it on the menu. When I asked to speak to the Manager, I was informed that he was not available. We want to caution other patrons of Fair Grounds to be aware of these hidden charges. Unfortunately, we will not be returning for dinner in the future."

"It has a sports bar atmosphere. When we were there it was a college football/baseball playoff day so the crowd was a bit boisterous at the bar. Which was not a big deal. The service was okay. To not fault of their own they only had two servers on. So there was a bit of a wait when it came to getting drinks and food. I do not blame the server in the slightest worked in quite a few restaurants myself. I understand."
