Keyu Li: Before I went to 12 Ji, I found some bad reviews on the social media platform/Google map(e.g. expensive/bad service/umm food)Because of that, I didn’t ever plan to go to this place for eating hot pot. However, one of my lab mates went there and said this place was actually good in terms of their flavor and food. So yes, finally I want to give it a try.So here is my review:Pros:1) Great environment, more quite than other hotpot place, no need to wait to be seated.2) Lots of food choice, the flavor and soup are actually really great for me, I can say that their soup base quality are very good. They have very special meat choice of high quality and taste wonderful!3) Price are quite fair, it’s similar compared with Szechuan Mansion Hotpot.4) My boyfriend really like their vegetable mix since it has more kinds of vegetables compared with other place.Cons:1) Some noise come from their machine.Other:Service is okay, not bad, I’ll give the service 3.5/5 star.Overall:4 star. I give 5 star due to other bad reviews which I do not understand. So the extra star is to encourage them and help them survive in the Triangle area so that I can have more options for hotpot.I will definitely come back for hotpot. But next time I expect there is NO noise problem.

Loveyou “MickeyZ” 3000: Everything about this hotpot restaurant is fabulous! This could be the most authentic hotpot you can find in NC I know. They have items that I LOVE but couldn’t find in the rest of NC. One thing it surprised me was their All You Can Eat option! It cost $56 and it was definitely worth it!

Steven Zhang: One of the most traditional and tasty hot pot I ever ate in America, taste just like my childhood back in Chengdu. Highly recommend their beef which has bunch of variety and the best quality I ever ate! Most importantly is super valuable highly recommend! 😋

Shihao Liu: Best hotpot on the east coast. Soup is extraordinary with the effort from the Restaurant owner. Everything we ordered is so fresh!

Maria Z: Waiter was helpful. Tried his best with English and he helped us order. We ordered hot pot and tomato broth with beef, chicken, seafood and veggies. Hot pot was too spicy. Place was clean. Service was quick. Next time we'll get mushroom broth. And be wiser about order.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options + Tofu

Veronica Zhang: Arrived around noon on a weekday. No wait, the server was pretty attentive even though it took a while for the broth to be brought up. Food quality is good and we really love the tripe and some very tender beef.Based on other reviews, I would rec to go to the place during weekdays as our experience was decent.

Cindy L: Fantastic hot pot place. They hand mash/make many of their items, and the sliced meat/seafood are always extremely fresh. You can tell from the taste of the broth that the chili oil and ingredients are high quality and clean.

Oliver Lett: Flower was the best waitress we could have asked for. She's so intelligent and engaging. The atmosphere is enough to get you excited for the food, but she added some special magic to the experience.

jillian harvell: I usually always have a good experience here, but yesterday really has me questioning if I’d want to come back here. We had a reservation for 4, got sat around 4:10, didn’t see our waitress until 4:30. There were two other tables sat after us that received drinks and even the start of their meal before we even saw our waitress. No apologies were given for the wait, ordered everything all at once when she came. Finally got drinks about ten minutes later, wasn’t until around 5 when we actually got the first course. She brought everything out already premixed which was odd, every other time I’ve been they mix it all in front of you explaining what’s all in it and make a show out of it. For what you pay here between the slow service, not even getting the full usual experience, and just the lack of enthusiasm or energy from our waitress, it really was not worth it the time. On top of that, the entire time we listened to employees yell, laugh and talk from the back with total disregard to people trying to enjoy their dinner. One of the other waiters did check in on us during our meal, asking if there were any extras we needed which we were grateful for because our waitress didn’t really check in after dropping our premixed stuff off. Our drinks were empty for 10+ minutes at a time, and we were sitting a long time in between courses waiting. Usually the staff is super attentive and friendly and put on a good show, but yesterday was honestly the worst experience I’ve ever had there. Disappointed and feel like I overpayed for an experience that wasn’t good at all.

Thelma Borbas: Our server, Flower, was amazing! Guided us through everything and full of funny stories and anecdotes. We chose the Pacific rim and the steak platter as our entrees. Yummy! So much food, but just a bit at a time. First course was cheese. We chose Quattro Formaggio. So delish! They brought bread, veggies and apples to dip in the cheese. Next course was salad. They allow enough time between courses that you're not rushed. We were there for about 3 hours. The entree course was next. You cook your own food! 😮 Steak platter had three different types of steak, while the Pacific rim had tuna, duck breast, shrimp, steak, and pot stickers. They also brought veggies with it. They do allow you to take leftovers home but you have to cook them before you leave. Finally, dessert! We chose bananas foster, which were flambeed right there. So cool! It tasted like a cinnamon roll. When we go back, we will definitely have to try chocolate!! They brought rice krispies, Oreo covered marshmallows, brownies, Blondies, angel food cake, bananas & strawberries to dip. Amazing meal!!!

Asylum Darkness: Just such a great experience! My gf and I came here with our friends and it was like no other. My gf and I shared the Bigger Night Out For Two, and it was all just so delicious. The teriyaki steak was out of this world. And the chocolate fondue, amazing. The presentation of the Yin Yang is so cool, the Flaming Turtle and the Banana one were out of this world. On top of that, our server Flower (I hope I'm not misspelling it!) Gave us the best service I think I've ever had anywhere. She was so bubbly and conversive with us, we never needed anything she was always on top of it, overall improved our experience ten-fold. I recommend this to anyone and everyone, even though it's a little expensive (our bill for my gf, myself and the two kids) came out to roughly $260 with tip and all, but I promise it was worth every penny!

Hannah Rhodes: As someone who is lactose intolerant, the cramps will be worth it. The cheese was absolutely fantastic! We got the spinach artichoke and aged cheddar, which came with bread, celery, apples, and carrots. The food was also delicious, and I enjoyed boiling and grilling my own food. Our server, Riley, was also amazing and recommended great items on the menu since it was our first time.

Luisa Medina: The whole concept of this place is really neat. However, there’s definitely room for improvement. First off way overpriced. We spent almost $180 for just two people (including the tío for the waiter). This restaurant is not fancy, therefore shouldn’t have those “fancy” prices”. People were literally showing up in sweatpants… Second, the bread was not fresh. It was hard and gross. Plus, the vegetables were definitely still cold and still defrosting. I do love the dessert part if the dinner. However, the brownies and cookies were definitely not fresh. Overall, the quality of the food does not fit the price.

andriablaze: Surprised by the many vegan options (both cheese and chocolate) and so good!

Nathan Rice: Took my wife here for her birthday. The ambience is nothing special. Drinks were sub par. Food was alright, but there was no salt on the table and the meats were unseasoned. Service was alright, until we ended up waiting for our checks for 30 minutes at the end. There was nothing special about this place and it certainly was not worth $130 for us both.

G M Fite: My wife loves to visit The Melting Pot for her birthday. This year was no exception. We had a party of 4 each couple's bill exceeded $150.00. We all concluded that the service was terrible, the filet mignon was tough & chewy (certainly not filet). The cheese fondue included 2 small pieces of cauliflower, a handle full of baby carrots, along with bread there was celery....[what a cheap excuse] I mean really!? How many times a week does 1 sit and think "boy! Sure could go for dipping some celery into some hot cheese."We came to the conclusion; the price verses quality, service & atmosphere nowhere near add up to an enjoyable evening therefore we will no longer be dining at The Melting Pot & that's unfortunate.

Connie Rhodes Rummel: We chose to celebrate Mother’s Day Saturday night and made a reservation two months in advance at the Durham, NC location. Apparently it doesn’t matter if you make a reservation as we still had to wait 50mins for our table to be ready. (Reservation at 6:45pm, finally sat down at 7:35pm) many other reservations had similar experiences as ours, so obviously management has no idea how to schedule staffing and reservations. While our server was an absolute Angel, the overall service left much to be desired. We had to ask for silverware and napkins multiple times, having to use the fondue forks for the cheese course only receiving forks and napkins with our salads, only after someone delivered our entree asking if everything ok with our salads.Overall service was slow, understanding the experience (this was not our first time at melting pot) what is typically a 2hr dinner, turned into a 4hr dinner, with us leaving the restaurant at 10:45pm.I sincerely hope the Raleigh location has better service, as the Durham location needs a closer look at capacity and service times.

Jeff Struggles: I decided to come here for my birthday 5/4 and for this being my first time I didn’t know what to expect but I was on Positive Vibes soon as I pulled in the parking lot. Walked in excited and was greeted right away, my guest and I got a drink from the bar while they was getting our table ready. Then we sat down and we met KEARSTIN R. And she made my/our experience INCREDIBLE. Her energy was great answered our questions, very informative and easy to talk to. Personally I don’t know how to cook but it was so fun for me feeling like a big time chef lol. Dessert was my favorite part, Flaming turtle is what we ordered and it was perfect. Awesome experience and we will be back.

Tyler Rickert: Had an awesome experience! Dee was awesome!
