We did have an after dinner drink. I had Irish coffee, I don't recall what everyone else had Simply Fondue is an epicurian delight and a must visit if you're anywhere close to Livermore. I have eaten many Fondues in my life, but Simply Fondue was over the top. When the the Chef said it was a must place to dine. He was absolutely correct.

Wow what an experience, at first I thought the portions would be up my alley as far as being my similar to bite size, Wrong. We ordered the fondue feast. We started off with two types of cheese to dip, which is served with different style bread bites. Adding some type of pretzel (hint, hint) to the bread bites would be amazing but the bread itself is fine. Second item served was the salad, the portion is like full size and was very tasty. Moving on to the meat/seafood we picked was very delicious. The experience most of all is priceless and very memorable. The drink I ordered was also good. The dessert was outstanding and very delicious, my favorite because I have a sweet tooth. Overall it was a great dining experience.

First time trying fondu and we absolutely loved it! Huge shoutout to our amazing server, Zachary S. He made our first time there remarkable and made us want to come back as soon as possible. We made sure to mention that it was our first time trying it and so he made sure to guide us through every detail and how the menu works. We didn't want to do the unlimited option (which, if you're going with an appetite is worth it price wise), so we just did the basic cheese fondue, the 3 options of meats to cook up on the cast iron, & then for dessert we did the oreo chocolate fondue. For drinks we did the martini flights and let me tell you, the little glasses were adorable. The flights came with white gummy, raspberry lemon drop, honeydew lemon, pom, sparkling mango, and my personal favorite, the dirty banana. After some cheers, we started to heat up the italian fontina cheese, which melted in the pot with some pesto sauce and marinara sauce. We were brought out some bread with some vegetables to dip in the cheese and once we were done with that, our lovely server brought us out our fondue grill to start heating up and we picked our meats. There are a bunch of different options including poultry, beef, and even vegetarian options. We went with the nashville hot chicken, the butter fried chicken, and the spicy andouille sausage. When you choose your options, you also have to choose your cooking style. Our server informed us that the fondue grill was the best option for the friend chicken since it needs to be cooked thoroughly. Upon finished up cooking and eating our meats, dipping them in the house made sauces they brought out to us which included yogurt curry, creamy dill, spicy bbq, teriyaki glaze, chimichurri, and honey mustard, it was time for dessert. We went with the white chocolate option, a delicious cookies and cream melted chocolate with oreo pieces and we were then brought out tray of fruits and brownie/cookie pieces with a marshmallow for us to toast to! It was such a perfect experience and i cannot recommend it enough. For 2 of us, it was a lot of eating, so i can imagine going with a big group of friends would be ideal. Parking is kind of iffy, we had to park down the street in a parking lot but the walk was only a couple of minutes. Downtown Livermore is lovely so we will definitely be back soon!

First time going to Simply Fondue. Ordered the smoked Gouda fondue and the spicy fondue. Both were delicious, but the spicy was my favorite. The smoked Gouda had lots of bacon which was a plus. You can choose the level of heat in the spicy fondue which is nice. I like that they make it there at the table so you can see the ingredients. For dessert we ordered the camp fire chocolate fondue. It was really good! They give you a variety of treats and fruits to dip in the chocolate and you can order additional servings of just your favorites free of charge. The treats were good and the fruit was fresh. My only complaints are the portions of cheese fondue are relatively small for the price and the bread served with the fondue didn't taste fresh. You can request more bread free of charge but we barely had enough cheese for the first round of bread so what's the point of unlimited servings. Also the bread was meh. All in all I recommend Simply Fondue. It was a fun experience and the food was yummy, although a bit pricey. I will go again.

When I think about my expectations when it comes to a fondue restaurant, Simply Fondue check all the boxes. Located in the busy downtown of Livermore this is the perfect classy date spot or a great place to commemorate a special occasion. They've designed the facility with a good number of twists and turns to make it quiet even when it is busy. Our server was the perfect combination of cheek and helpfulness. He got a big tip from us. The food was decadent, we got the all you can eat option and stuffed ourselves. Save some space for dessert. I'm a sucker for chocolate fondue!

I always like to visit Simply Fondue if there are major occasions (birthdays). My family had a blast whenever we dine in. Its pricey but all worth it. I love dipping my food on different cheese, chocolates, etc. The servers are fast and efficient. Overall the place looks clean-fancy.

Simply Fondue serves a whole lot more than just fondue but if fondue is what you're craving for, you should simply order fondue. Otherwise, your stomach will not have room for what you came for! In the name, you've guessed it! Fondue is the spotlight. That includes cheese and chocolate fondue. But what you don't know without looking at the menu is that they also serve delicious salads and meat and vegetable options to be cooked on the grill at your table. And if you're really hungry, you may even consider the Fondue Feast, an all you can eat meal where you simply continue requesting meats and vegetables from the menu to be cooked at your table. To clarify, it's just the grill items that are endless, not the cheese nor the chocolate. Yes, bummer, but we found that the cheese and chocolate portions were plenty enough for two to share. And if you do get the feast on Sunday or Wednesday, kids under 12 will eat free (although it seemed there is some high turnover during the summer so we had to confirm with the server and manager to be sure the deal was still valid). Alongside their family fondue Sundays and wildcard Wednesdays, they have daily specials posted on their website. As fondue isn't cheap, these discounts definitely make a difference! We came here on a Sunday and was able to take advantage of their fondue feast special. Perusing the menu, we were able to select the cheese fondue (there are a few variations to choose from but we ended up taking our server's recommendation and ordered the traditional Swiss chalet), salads, and grill items. What was surprising is that they cook the cheese fondue in front of you and serve you a platter of vegetables and bread to be dipped in your cheese. Take your time with the cheese but don't take too long or else your dinner service may end up taking a while as they don't serve the next course until you're completely done. The grill entree items (mainly the meats for me) were overwhelmingly filling but extremely flavorful. There is a variety of meats to choose from but do pace yourself. We primarily ordered the beef and pork items and each morsel was succulent to bite through. They cooked relatively quickly and also filled our stomached relatively quickly. After you're through with the entree dishes, be ready to be say goodbye to protein and say hello to dessert. In comes the pot of chocolate (you can pick the flavor/blend) with a platter of fruits, marshmallows, and baked goods. Prior to dipping the chocolate, they'll light up some alcohol to allow you to roast your marshmallows. Take care as to not burn them! You've made it through the whole service and you'll be stuffed! Being located in downtown, take a nice stroll down to the fountain and burn off some of those heavy calories. Parking is on the street but if you are willing to walk a block or two, you'll find plenty of spots. It does get busy during peak times but evenings are typically quiet. Overall, Simply Fondue does fondue really well and the staff provide a great dining experience. The quality of the meats are decent and with the specials, the meal does seem fairly priced and if not, just slightly higher than other sit downs. If you haven't had a chance to dip your snacks in cheese or chocolate, consider coming here to give it a try!

I wanted to take my boyfriend out for a nice night together and I always wanted to give him a fondue experience. The only time I had this for myself was at the Melting Pot in Sacramento. Looking up online, I found this place relatively nearby and wanted to give it a shot. I made a reservation online, so it was rather simple for us to be seated right away. Parking is abysmal though, so I recommend parking in the nearby parking structure and walking over. Once seated, we looked over the menu and chose the Fondue Feast, to be able to experience the entire experience of a fondue here. Our server was very helpful and explained to us how everything works here. Once that was settled, we chose our options and waited for our meal. Gorgonzola Field Greens: A simple salad that was flavorful and packed a lot of greens. The sauce was delicate and acidic, and I thoroughly enjoyed it as a starter. Whiskey Bourbon Cheddar: My boyfriend decided on this cheese and it was very flavorful and pungent, even for a cheddar. The assorted vegetables and breads were a nice dipper to taste the cheese. It was gooey and the bacon helped bring a lot of the saltiness to my palette. Overall, the cheese I say was pleasant. Fondue Grill: Now this was not something I expected. Back at the other fondue place, we dipped the meat into our cheese, but here, we were cooking it like Korean bbq. It was a bit of a surprise when it came to us, but I enjoyed cooking, so we threw a few pieces of our meats into the grill and continued cooking. For an overall flavor experience, I really loved the chicken and the beef, especially the lemon pepper chicken. That one was the most flavorful and I recommend that one. The seafood was nothing special to me. Dark Raspberry: This was a very rich and smooth fondue. Starting with a fire is a lot of fun for our campfire marshmallows. The fruits and rice crispy treats were also great to dip. Honestly, the dessert was my favorite part of this entire meal. Overall, I can see myself coming here again and trying some stuff again, especially the dessert.

Our go-to fondue place when family is in town. Service and food is great. They have tables that fit our large party of 8. The atmosphere is darker and makes you feel more intimate and separated from others. Parking can be a pain because it's downtown. I'd suggest making a reservation. I'm not sure if they even take walk-ins. It does get a bit pricey, but we have never been disappointed when we come. Their chimichurri is our favorite.

My family comes once a year to celebrate a birthday and we enjoy the experience a lot, despite the prices that seem to keep going up every time we visit. We started with a classic caesar, which was good. For the cheese fondues we got 3 servings of the traditional swiss chalet and 3 of the loaded whiskey cheddar, for the 4 of us. They make the cheese fondues in front of you at your table and give you a bowl of breads and a bowl of fruits and veggies. It was our first time getting the swiss chalet and the whiskey cheddar is a favorite, but it turns out we were split 2 and 2 on the cheese we liked the most. The swiss chalet had a more mild flavor compared to the cheddar, but the cheddar also had the added bacon and chives. We then opted for the fondue grill for our entree cooking style and got the Korean style beef, bacon wrapped beef, six pepper beef, roasted garlic chicken, and the smoked mozzarella ravioli. Our favorites were the bacon wrapped beef and the roasted garlic chicken. We weren't huge fans of the ravioli, it got crispy on the grill, but wasn't quite hitting the mark for us compared to the meats. They also have a some veggies to roast. The other two meats were alright, the Korean beef was a bit sweet and the six pepper beef didn't have a ton of flavor. (Not part of this visit, but from another time: we got the campfire milk chocolate fondue for dessert. I love the roasting marshmallow part. It comes with a side of assorted desserts to dip into the chocolate and we really liked it to finish off our meal.) Our waitress was super attentive and gave us a refresher on the menu when we told her we hadn't been in a while. She gave us lots of herbed butter, which was helpful to keep the smoking down on the grill. Since we had a birthday, she brought out a birthday drink with a candle. We appreciated that she asked whether we wanted it alcoholic or non alcoholic, I feel like it never hurts to ask. Overall we really enjoy the fondue experience and cooking on the grill. This is more of a special occasion place for us, but a great place to experience fondue in a restaurant. The restaurant vibe does match a nice evening out. I recommend coming if you've never had it before, but beware of the prices and that you may not be full in the end depending on how much you end up ordering. The cheese portions are fairly small, despite the unlimited bread/fruits and veggies. We enjoyed the fondue part more than the entree part. I also recommend keeping in mind to make a reservation early. It gets pretty crowded, especially since they're only open in the evenings.
