Mumu Hot Pot

My partner and I came here at 6:30 on a Friday night because we didn’t want to wait an hour for Seapot. So this review is going to be a Seapot/Mumu comparison. We got the Mumu Signature for two and it was just the right amount of food for two adults.
At Mumu you get quality over quantity while the opposite is true for Seapot. The overall bill was about the same. You don’t get to choose which veggies and sides you get at Mumu but the meat selection is more diverse and everything is, again, higher quality. Oftentimes the meat at Seapot would have that stinky old meat smell and taste. The sauce bar is decent but doesn’t offer as much at Mumu. They also don’t have a kimchi and fruit bar but that’s okay for me since I rarely have enough space in my stomach for these auxiliary items. The vibe at Mumu is more laidback (ie no giant screen playing music videos) and the servers are attentive and nice. Oh, and at Mumu, there are takeout containers freely available for your leftovers! I’m pretty sure Seapot doesn’t provide these.
Overall I am pleased and would choose Mumu over Seapot.

Good hot pot option! For Side: The ramen noodles are little too salty I would recommend the rice it was very soft

A little pricey but it was a lot of fun trying all the veggies, meat and sauces. The Sichuan soup was way spicy but flavorful. Mixing up different dipping sauces was so delicious. Not sure I would go back but it was definitely worth the visit. The option for 2 people was way more than we could eat so we had it for lunch the next day.

It's gotten too popular! There's often a wait now

Not the best value for the price

Great hot pot, good selection of soup bases and vegetarian options.

Vegetarian options: The spicy Sichuan broth is wonderful and vegetarian. The veggies and meat are fresh. The place offers both indoor and outdoor seats.

Dietary restrictions: Almost everything is dairyfree

Love the sauce station. A bit pricey but a good experience. The shrimp paste and vegetable platter was great!

I love coming here with my partner because we can both have our own pots with our own flavors and foods. I definitely get enough food when I order the veggie platter.?

Truly the greatest hot pot I have ever had and great value for the money. The meat quality is very good and the mushroom sauce is divine. My go to place when I crave hot pot. The SF location is also just as good.

The hot pot we ordered was amazing, and they offer a vegetarian option that I really enjoyed. It was my first time trying hot pot, and although I don't have much experience with Chinese cuisine, I absolutely loved it. The portion size for a single hot pot is generous enough to satisfy two people. However, I deducted two star from the rating because we were seated near the restroom, which slightly detracted from the overall experience. In the restaurant business, it's important to pay attention to even the smallest details to ensure a pleasant dining experience.

Been coming here for a while. Hotpot is authentic and this comes from someone who’s lived in China. My friend and I always get the set which comes with two meets, two side, two carbs and a veg medley. Plenty of food and comes out to abt $80 for two ppl including tax. Service is attentive and efficient.
