This is the third time that I've ventured to The Melting Pot, each time for the music and drinks. On both prior occasions I enjoyed the music (fun blues guitarist last weekend, followed by an entertaining open mic) and remember the drink prices as being acceptable.

However, the service seems to deteriorate substantially with time, with the staff this latest trip being so downright condescending that I walked out-- not what I want for a Monday evening listening to music. Moreover, 3/4 of the seats are "reserved," even when there are only a handful of people in the bar (I was given, quite literally, a choice of 2 tables at which to sit, despite only 7 other customers in the restaurant).
