Hot Pot Restaurants near Cupertino, CA

“It's not like China, but it's pretty good. It's like home“

“They have more soup choices than other places. We had tried mushroom soup and herb chicken soup. Both are tasty and not as salty as other places! The meat look less fatty, too!
They provide cold water and unsweetened cold red tea. The paper cups are by the checkout counter.
There are plenty of seats available in the food court and the space between seats are wider, too!“

“Home eats is really good! Great food!“

“I want to gatekeep this place, but I want this restaurant to do well. We've been eating here for a few years, their drypot can't be beat. It's really delicious. You pick what you want to go in, and pick a spice level, and they'll cook it for you. Dining in also comes with a nice complementary sweet tea, which helps with the spice. We usually get it with rice. They're a good spicy for casual spice eaters. Probably not stupid spicy for those who really fixate on it.“

“Great food and experience!“

“The BEST!!! I went for happy hour, and it was so worth it!!! On weekdays Mikiya has happy hour during lunch, and after 9pm. I can get 4 plates of high quality beef and unlimited vegetables!! The appetizer section has my fav clams and octopus. They also have good fruits and curry wagyu, and fresh squeezed orange juice. Highly highly recommend, everything is good quality good value“

“AYCE Shabu Shabu with the bonus option of ALL YOU CAN DRINK! I love that this place has a 3-compartment pot for the broth so we were able to try Signature Creamy Tonkotsu w/ Black Garlic Oil, Tom Yum Tonkotsu, and Sweet Tomatoes (wasn't a fan). So whether you plan to do AYCE or add on the AYCD, you're guaranteed to be warmed up at this place.

“We usually eat here and it is very good. The meat are fresh and the soup base is tasty unlike others“

“Angus beef - Generous portion. Good quality. Actually pretty good deal.

Veggie combo - We were disappointed they didn't replace the veggie that we didn't like. Because it was part of the elite freebie, we got it anyway but I wouldn't order it if I come here myself. The yellow corn was very sweet.

Pork - good portion, good quality

Squid - I was very impressed with it. Taste really good if you like seafood.

Soup base - Disappointed that a few were out of stock. The numb spicy I didn't like. It's very spicy which is fine but it lacks flavor. I think if they use herbal or other soup base or just adding salt will improve the taste a lot better.

The herbal soup was very flavorful. Loved it! But a bit salty.“

“This is one of the closest hotpot place to Stanford. We chose a two-person package for $89, including 2 bobas, two plates of beef, one plate of lamb and seafood, one plate of noodles and vermicelli, one plate of tofu, and one sweet. That's more than enough food but we finished it!Unique small individual pot, only wish it was sunk in the table. It has the basic sauces and spices, wish there is more.“

“AMAZING snacks! There is a free snack bar with all kinds of delicious chinese snacks, the staff were very kind and gave children toys. You can walk in at any given time and they will find you a table immediately. The place is very clean, and my family and I love it so much we go at least 2 times a week. If you’re ever looking for a hot pot place go here!“

“Little Sheep broke up their company and now there are various Happy Lambs under new ownership - some are not so good - this one is excellent and worth the trip - Id say its even better than rhe original Little Sheep on Stevens Creek which eventually turned into a Happy Lamb but was very sub-par and is now gone - stick with this one in Mt View. Avoid the ones in Boston (see my other review). Come off hours or you’ll be in line forever.“

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

“Tasty Pot is a wonderful franchise that offers a wide variety of pot flavors that often satisfy any culinary avenue. The De Anza location does not disappoint, and the delicious broth always satisfies by taste buds. I will can definitely see myself eating here again. Thank you for the wonderful experience!! Totally recommend.“

“Just had a dish of soybean seedling and it was surprisingly good! They had a perfect little crunch on the outside but stayed tender inside. The seasoning was spot-on—a nice savory, garlicky flavor with a hint of spice. It's a great simple side dish, super healthy-tasting, and feels light even when ate lots meats.“

“The food here is amazing! All the ingredients are super fresh, and you can tell they really care about quality. The spicy and sour soup base is so flavorful and perfectly balanced — tangy, spicy, and comforting. The place is clean and the staff are friendly. Highly recommend!“

“Semi self-service. (Raw) meat selection for the table & personalized soup base are brought to you; the remainder (veggies, tofu & seafood) come on the conveyor belt. You pick your own side-dish sauces (buffet style). All you can eat but limited to 90 min.

Meats were very fresh, as were the seafood, since we had an 11 am reservation (allowed for > 6 people; more on this below). Plentiful and speedy conveyor belt since we were the "1st shift" (get my drift?). I preferred shrimp & chicken (low fat), but was able to tear off the fat (yup, strip by strip if your diet tends in that direction) from the red meats. After a while, no one could tell what meats were on which plates! We thought the baby scallops were great: fresh and tender if you let it into the soup only for 15 seconds, yet they didn't toughen up if you left them in for a while. Shrimp: delicious & fresh, and you have a choice of shelled vs with the full metal jacket!

The variety of tofu was really good. The puffy rectangles were especially nice since they soaked up the soup and softened upon contact with moisture. There were sufficient greens to even things out. We saw a group of Buddhist monks in the queue, so you know it's possible to eat vegan here.

Some of the soup base selections were exceptional: tomato (so good!), mushrooms & Tonkatsu highly recommended (these all start with bone broth, I believe). Miso not so much (uninteresting). The soup gets more flavorful as the meal progresses, so it's better to get something not too intense.

We secured a reservation with 7 people, but personally, I wouldn't do this again. The seating for a big group still places the conveyor belt next to only 2 people, so now those closest to the belt must continuously serve the rest of the table. It's too much. Far better to break up the group into foursomes. However, I've heard that sometimes they stuff a lone customer onto a table for 3. How weird is that?

While the atmosphere is alright, the style of food service is such that it made for a feeding frenzy with no conversation (except to praise the food). If it's a visit you seek, this is not the experience you'd want. Or plan to visit another place afterwards.“

“I was here for a music event, and my group didn't know what to eat. We found this place online and went to get some food. Eric, our sever was AMAZING! Such a sweet guy, and was always coming back to our table to make sure we were having a good time refilling out waters and adding more broth when needed. Give that man a raise!!“

“We were staying out of town and decided to stop by here for dinner and we are very happy we did. The food was amazing, staff was very friendly and offered a lot of different recommendations to ensure we had the best experience possible.

The price point may be a little high but it is worth every penny and you will not leave disappointed. Don't be afraid to experiment with the menu.“

“I have no idea the food here is delicious. after passing by it really blew me away. who knew I would be getting top quality. you get quality ingredients here. will come again in the future“

“There are quite a few repetitive hot pot ingredients, it would be nice to have more variety. The overall flavor is fine. However, the extra meat slices I ordered weren’t very impressive, they were just boiled and completely unseasoned. It seems they’re meant to be eaten with the hot pot but it would be better if they were served together with the hot pot instead.“

“Very delicious, very good, highly recommended“

“Price is $15.99/lb with the many options for the broth. Malatang has gotten very popular recently and feels similar to hot pot. You get a decent amount of food if you only eat 1 lb of food.

The space in the restaurant is on the smaller side, but the wait time is short. You grab a bowl and go down the line while picking up the ingredients you want into your bowl. At the end, the cashier weighs the bowl to determine how much to pay.

Wait time for them to cook the food and bring it out to you is very quick, which helps bring down the wait time. I enjoyed the beef broth but spice level was high for me personally at the mild level.“

“Mixed feelings on this place. The food, flavors and offerings were good. When I first arrived with our group of four plus a kid we were promptly seated in the back room. Where the air temperature ranged from 55-58°F. While they said they would turn the temperature up, there was people already seated in this area. The end of our experience, the temperature only reached 64°F. While my friend felt we were rushed to order. I interpreted that as they wanted us to get some of the order in soon so we can see what we wanted next. I'm used to that and hot pots and/or bbq situations. So be prepared to order ASAP. But that was just the food order. It took them quite a while to ask if we wanted anything to drink. We were even already eating before we were able to order some Soju, sake, and soda. There are three items that I had to repeatedly ask for since they had not arrived. One item never arrived. The entire visit. We were also presented with three items that we did not order. So attention to detail in the ordering/delivery system is lacking. The food selection in general was okay. Flavors were good. I wish there was more seafood options. Portion size was also a little interesting pork belly seemed appropriate size portion for a table four, yet beef tongue had three razor thin slices?!? Their sauce bar was A+; Great variety of options and kept clean and neat. Multiple staff helped along the way, all friendly, and attentive (while with us but clearly mixed signals after things were submitted on there there ordering system). We also were asked if we got our ice cream at least three times. I didn't know if that was their way of getting us out the door or if they were not communicating with each other that they've already served us it. So overall a good restaurant. Seems like they still need to work some things out. I'm not sure if this is a new place or not. The variety of options in the area, I'm not sure I'll give them a second try.“

“Very authentic sichuan food. Good value in terms of portion and price. The owner is a very sweet lady is super friendly. She taught the secret of having spicy food. Should ask her about that next time when you visit.
Spicy fish fillet and the suchuan noodle are my favorite in this place.“

“Nice place good serving staff“
