Hot Pot Restaurants near Arcadia, CA

“This is the place to go if you love hot pot. Good quality food, tasty, and flavorful broth. Good service and friendly staff.“

“Owner is really nice and chill. I love her energy and warming welcome greeting. It’s self service for the proteins and veggies as well as sauce. Customers were enjoying their food and so were we. It’s my first time here since I’m not from California. I wish Massachusetts could have a place this good too. Wish I could come here more often!“

“I like this place. $13.99 per pound of food. You get to choose all your toppings. I recommend going heavy on the meats and light on the carbohydrates. That’ll be the best bang for the buck. They also have frog meat if that’s your lingo. I tried their beef bone broth and I like it a lot. I’d come back again.

**UPDATE**
Just a heads up. If you can’t eat mild this place won’t be for you. They can’t alter the broth. The only option is the tomato broth which is no spicy.“

“Very delicious Love their Lamb“

“Perfect portion for one person. The free tea was a nice touch too!“

“It's difficult to get a table for 2 quite often here. I've gone in and the place is nearly empty, but when you call online, they say they have no availability. I can't imagine it's packed every day.“

“I had a wonderful dining experience at Chong Qing YaoMei Hotpot. The food was fresh, flavorful, and authentic, especially the rich and spicy Chongqing-style soup base. There was a great variety of meats, seafood, vegetables, and handmade dishes to choose from.“

“The service, the food, the environment and the kindness and efficiency of our server tonight! 😋👍“

“How does this place have no reviews? Probably the greatest hot pit in Houston. Different levels of Wagyu. Includes many sides seafood drinks desert it’s just awesome. Great service. Great vibe. Amazing place. Keep up the good work.“

“My wife and I are huge hot pot enthusiasts. We’ve tried basically all the most authentic hot pot restaurants in the San Gabriel Valley, and this place has never disappointed us. The environment is clean, the servers are friendly and attentive, and the sauce station is very well stocked. That’s probably why they’ve stayed strong for many years. We come back every once in a while!“

“Its open and they really made sure its safe , service and food perfect . Happy days“

“Late-night hot pot + BBQ buffet with solid seafood

Went for the hot pot & BBQ buffet combo. You can pick one broth or go with a double/triple split. Lots of options on the buffet line.

A few standouts:
- Argentine red shrimp – plump, firm, with a nice snap
- Frog legs – surprisingly huge
- Oysters – fat and briny
- Grilled eggplant – soft and fully soaked in garlic sauce; every bite was pure flavor
- Grilled shrimp and grilled chicken skin– also really good

The sauce station was clean, and sodas are self-serve. They're open until 1 or 2 AM – perfect for late-night cravings.“

“The front desk experience has been consistently frustrating.
The young lady there appears inattentive and unsure of the process. Even after joining the Yelp waitlist ahead of time, we're left standing without explanation for 5-10 minutes each visit until another staff member takes over and seats us.
The lack of coordination at the entrance gives the impression that no one is actually managing the line properly.
Fortunately, the rest of the staff are warm and professional, and the hot pot options are solid.“

“I’m dinning in with a group of friends and we are making a lot of special requests but the host is very patient and is taking very good care of us. We finish all the food and order more to go. The spicy bowl is amazing! And we finished the spicy bowl and order another one to go!!! Loving this place and would come back again!“

“I can't stop thinking about this restaurant. The interior is very plain, but the table has all the sauces and utensils you need. The menu has a great selection. Once you order, the food comes out fast, and it's piping hot. Everything tasted super fresh. I had the spring rolls (10/10) and the curry with vermicelli AND bread. This was a lot of carbs, but worth it! If I had to pick one, though, I'd go with the bread; it was hot and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It was the last thing to come out, so I think they make it fresh. The flavor profile on the curry was amazing, and I can't compliment their mock meat enough; their chicken is some of the best I've had. My friend had the Pho and said it was great too. I will be going again. Updated from previous review on 2026-10-03“

“My daughter is 10 years old. She loves to eat here, the food in the soup taste so good, and the soup is very yummy to drink too. She likes to eat inside of the store. She really enjoyed there. In this store, parents will never worry about kids are too picky for food, because they likes everything there 😄，and we got gift cards there too, would like to share this good neighborhood restaurant with our friends“

“Absolutely amazing Spicy Dry Pot! The ingredients were super fresh and the flavor was rich, bold, and perfectly spicy. They currently have a great promo—12% off for first-timers plus a FREE drink of your choice! Awesome value for money. The staff was super friendly and the service was quick. Definitely my new go-to spot. Highly recommend!“

“Food is delicious! If you like spicy can try it. If not, you can order one for non-spicy. Many different choices!“

“I came in on Tuesday, got the tomato and pork broths.

Both of these were good when I had them with abalone, oysters, and beef for lunch. Their soup tastes rich but a bit too thick IMO.

Interior design was nicely done. Felt like I was back in China.

I need to dock off a star because it's just so expensive.

Would definitely return!“

“amazing food and quality“

“Hidden hot pot gem – $33.88 AYCE and actually good

This place has been around for over a decade, right by the TAWA plaza.

We got there right when they opened in the afternoon, and the place filled up almost instantly. Most people seemed like regulars.

$33.88 gets you AYCE hot pot + a buffet station + sauces. Same price on weekends, and they don't charge extra for broth. The soup base is surprisingly good – has that nourishing, slightly herbal vibe. Reminded me of the old Little Sheep.

Plenty of options. Lamb and beef are a must – fresh. The pork intestine gets super soft and sticky after a quick boil – I wanted a second plate. The buffet had sesame balls, spring rolls, piggy buns, fries, edamame… the cha siu bao actually tasted like dim sum from a cart.

We also ordered scallion pancake on the side – super crispy. Almost asked for another one to take home.

Service speed is probably the fastest I've seen for AYCE. Food comes quick. Open till midnight – great for late-night cravings. And if you're staying at the Hilton? Literally across the street.“

“Loved my experience at East Town hot pot!! It was my first time seeing a charcoal hot pot, and I loved that you could choose two types of soup for each pot! They have a really wide selection of proteins and veggies. I highly recommend the beef and lamb combo! It’s mostly beef options, but it gives you a good selection of their proteins! Also, save some room for dessert! They have fresh cut fruits, popcorn, and a soft serve machine!“

“Jiaoxiangyuan is a new-style Sichuan restaurant. Its signature dish is the bullfrog double boiler. I invited the whole family to try it at Christmas. It was really good. Several dishes recommended by the restaurant manager were very delicious, and the family was full of praises. I stayed here. I made a good impression and will choose this restaurant next time I invite friends to dinner.“

“Buenísimo Buena comida y buena atención“

“As someone who loves spicy food, I really enjoyed this hot pot restaurant! 🌶 Here are a few things I especially liked:

* Tender, delicious beef: The beef was nice and tender, and it tasted amazing when cooked in the spicy broth.

* So many options to try: I love that most of the stuff come in small individual plates or on skewers. It’s easy to try a little bit of everything without ordering too much or worrying about wasting food.

* Flavorful spicy broth: The broth has a great balance of spice and flavor, which is exactly what I look for as someone who loves spicy food.

Overall, it’s a fun hot pot experience, especially if you love spicy food and enjoy sampling lots of different ingredients. Definitely a place I’d come back to! 🌶🍲“

“This is my go to spot for meat! Esp love the thinly sliced beef and skewers here. Team is always friendly and helpful on choosing the right stuff. Highly recommend!“

“Very nice small restaurant selling specialty noodles and some side items. The potato noodles have a firmer texture, kinda like soba, the soup was delicious. Chicken bone was also very good. There was an old couple working there, very friendly. Price was reasonable, highest it goes was $13 for the house special noodle. Overall a great place to try something new and unique.“

“Good soup and side dishes. Large servings and servers are very nice😁“

“This is a very cozy spot to grab a good meal. It’s not fancy or over the top, but that’s honestly part of its charm. It feels like a small local Japanese place where the focus is simply on serving good, comforting food.

The staff were very kind as well. It happened to be raining when we arrived, and they were nice enough to let us come in a little earlier than opening, which we really appreciated.

I ordered the pork cutlet with curry and the portion was very generous — definitely satisfying and full of flavor. The only small hiccup was that my Diet Coke was forgotten at first, so I had to ask again, but they brought it out shortly after.

Overall, it was a really pleasant experience. If you’re looking for a casual place with tasty food and a relaxed atmosphere, this spot is definitely worth checking out. The price per person is also very reasonable for the portion sizes you get.“

“Yeah!! I still remember being a bit disappointed the first time I went to the Century City location — it just didn’t feel that cute. But this new store has so much atmosphere! Even though the donuts are a bit sweet for me, it’s just really nice sitting here.“

“pineapple bun curry fish balls pork fried rice honey ribs Great food, prices, and service.“

“Definitely come here since im s vegetarian i love the vegetable bowl... beyond great and also the vege springs rolls“

“My family and I live this place. The food is fresh and delightful. The only thing I would say in a different light is that I wish they had more staff. The service is good however, sometimes it takes a while for your server to cover to you due to understaffed. Other then that this place is one of our faves.“

“This place is more of a drinking bar. I tried this place out 2× and food was nasty so I never went back again until recently my friends wanted to go there to drink so I tried it the 3rd time. The saying goes 3rd time the charm and yes the food was actually good this time, I enjoyed every dishes that was ordered.“

“We ordered the beef hot pot$68?, it comes with some complimentary beef and vegetables, and we order ordered two additional dishes of beef and a noodle each around ?$14? which is reasonable to me. We also ordered some cold dishes.

The chicken cold dish is good not greasy or oily, the meatball in the beef pot taste good, meat is fresh.

Total cost is 169 before tip, but we still have some dishes didn't even put it in Because we are full. Basically, we could of only spent 130 or less for two dudes.“

“The soup is very delicious and traditional. That’s a nice experience when I am homesick during my long term business trip here.“

“We are lucky that if you dine during the lunch time, the rice is free. Or else you need to order the rice separately. The rice portion is big, however, one of the rice bowl contains the VERY BOTTOM of the rice pot. (See my picture). I don't think that is the right and professional way to serve a customer with that portion of the rice. Therefore, that deducts a star for this restaurant.

The service is good and the atmosphere is standard.

In conclusion, the prices for this restaurant are a bit high in my opinion. I will ONLY come back if the 20% off discount continues.“

“Bigggggg portions! Bring your stomach! We came at a random time and the auntie who works there was there to work! She's immediately recommend the dishes and the add-ons. Despite our language barrier, she quickly took our order and the food came out fast. We ordered their signature rice noodles with medium spicy level, which is perfect. Great place, chill vibe, spacious lounging area.“

“The prices are slightly higher than at the other BP locations, but I really like that they have their own boba shop right next door. If you dine in for lunch, you can upgrade your drink to any drink for just $2.50. The service was probably the friendliest out of all the other locations as well. Just keep in mind that there’s street parking only.“

“This was the first restaurant I. Isn't when I came to USA, almost 40 years ago, the I come back pregnant, my daughter later came pregnant as well, and now my granddaughter is 11 years old and we still coming, my hole family loves this place!!!!!“

“I like some of the topping options that they offer here, but I would like it if there were more options. I usually get the house broth, but I recently tried the spicy beef broth, and it just tastes like yukgaejang. It was just kinda unexpected…
4 stars for food and service. Food: they often serve meats that shouldn’t be served. In the few times I’ve come to All that Shabu, twice (in different visits) we were given meat that was red and blood-like. It wasn’t pleasant. And the other time, one of the meat options was all fat and had a speck of meat. I’m not sure, do they not check the meat slices before sending the out? I feel like the staff should check the quality beforehand.“

“The Best Taiwanese Hotpot place in Socal.“

“one of my favorite malatang spots with lots of fresh toppings & a great sauce bar. will say that broth can be pretty inconsistent here in terms of taste & spice which is the only thing keeping this place from being a 5/5. service is always great & fast though“

“Lots of people say this is their favorite Taiwanese personal hot pot spot. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their honey milk tea, steamed veggies and spicy lamb appetizers, and new bak kuh teh pot to try. I brought my friend and she got their milk tea and iconic beef pot said it was really good. My honey milk tea was perfectly sweet and milky with plenty of jiggly pudding. The steamed veggies were soft and had a light pork flave. The spicy lamb was a bit spicy, cuminy, not too gamey but was a bit tough. The bak kuh teh had sweet savory garlicy flaves and was loaded with so many yummy things from their super tender flavorful yummy pork ribs, juicy frozen tofu, shiitake and seafood mushrooms, leafy napa cabbage, garlic, bouncy meatballs, imitation crab, corn, radish, tofu skin and vermicelli. It even came with a side of rice which I upgraded to their comforting umami beef tomato rice. Service here is on point And right now from June to July 12th, if you use my promo code ACMOO you can get a free appetizer! So definitely go check them out cuz this place no cap is pretty good!
