Valentine's Day falling on a weekend this year, I'd say that reservations
are absolutely mandatory.  Dinner takes a lot of time at the Melting Pot
(figure 3 hours) and the number of tables is small, fewer than two dozen,
so on a typical weekend night the wait can be up to 2 hours.

Dinner is a fun experience there, but I thought the traditional Swiss
cheese fondue was overboard on the kirschwasser.  The cheddar fondue is
an adapted Welsh rabbit recipe, and actually pretty tasty in spite of
what the review says.  The ingredients are mixed right at your table,
so by all means give your server some feedback if you're dissatisfied
with the default proportions.
