Hot Pot Restaurants near Glendale, CA

“Amazing food and experience, servers were helpful and friendly especially because I had NO IDEA how to do this. You get water and spices/ sauces, meats and proteins and veggies, and make your own dish. So cool and the food was just incredible.“

“Interesting experience. Might be our new hotpot place to go. The restaurant look great. Love the Japanese fast food concept. Not sure about the Japanese pop music, bit didn't bother us. Servers very nice and attentive but didn't have same taste (recomendations). We ordered the spicy tonkatsu and the another 3rd infantry division spicy soup, and the octopus balls. The food is great. Love the individual hotpot. Yet, I prefer more traditional hotpot without hotdogs, cheese, and spam. I will never order that 3rd infantry division soup, LoL. But definitely the tonkotsu one. I recomend this place.“

“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! 😋👍“

“Good quality of meat. Very nice service. You could enjoy little desert afterward“

“Tench is a gem of a restaurant. The shabu shabu experience is a unique culinary experience and Tensho does it right. The dishes that are part of the meal are delectable and always different. It is always a special night at Tensho. There is no place quite like it in LA - it is very special. An evening in Japan!“

“The malatang here was really satisfying! The broth was flavorful, rich, and had the perfect level of spice. I liked that there were many ingredients to choose from, and everything tasted fresh. The portion was generous, the service was friendly, and the food came out quickly. Definitely a great spot if you’re craving something warm, spicy, and comforting.“

“I've visited this restaurant four times now, and the experience has consistently been great. The food and service quality are excellent, and the staff is incredibly accommodating. When one of us mentioned not eating raw fish, they prepared several complimentary cooked dishes to ensure we left satisfied. While I have noticed that portion sizes seem slightly smaller than before, I still left feeling full. The kaiseki and shabu are must-tries, and I am already looking forward to returning for their sukiyaki.“

“Fig's Corner – A Second Visit That Completely Changed My Mind

This was my second visit to Fig's Corner, located on the corner of 30th Street and Figueroa. My first visit was about two years ago, and it was actually my first time ever trying hot pot. Unfortunately, I made the rookie mistake of taking a bite too soon and burned my tongue, so I never really got to appreciate the flavors. Because of that, I left feeling unsure about the experience.

I'm glad I decided to give it another chance because this visit was completely different.

The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere that's clean, modern, and welcoming. The service is simple but efficient. They hand you a menu with checkboxes, you mark everything you want, and the staff brings it out to your table.

To start, I ordered the cucumber salad, and it was fantastic. It was crisp, refreshing, and tossed with what tasted like chili crisp, soy sauce, and other flavorful seasonings. I also ordered the lamb skewers. They were small, but they packed an incredible amount of flavor. Every bite was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned.

For my main dish, I ordered the Signature House Beef Hot Pot, and I can honestly say it was one of the best soups I've ever had. The rich, savory broth was absolutely delicious. It came loaded with different cuts of beef, beef meatballs, quail eggs, tofu, mushrooms, vegetables, and several other ingredients that blended together perfectly. It was also served with a bowl of steamed rice and vermicelli noodles on the side, making it a hearty and satisfying meal.

To top it all off, I tried two of their specialty drinks: the grapefruit jasmine tea and the peach jasmine tea. Both were outstanding. The drinks included popping boba that burst with flavor in every sip, making them some of the best specialty teas I've ever had.

Overall, this second visit completely changed my opinion of Fig's Corner. Everything—from the appetizers to the hot pot and the drinks—was fresh, flavorful, and memorable. If you're looking for an authentic and delicious hot pot experience, I highly recommend giving Fig's Corner a try. Whether it's your first hot pot or you're already a fan, this place is absolutely worth visiting.“

“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“

“the variety of veggies and seafood made an amazing broth, then the addition of lamb, pork and beef made this meal even better.. soo good“

“Go here and go here soon. This place is great. Super fresh everything. Big coolers on one wall where you select meat and veg on trays and skewers. The assortment is broad. I was fortunate to have gone with friends from China, so they guided my choices. You can't go wrong with the basics here, though. Friendly service and very clean. Open late!“

“Had their skewers and dry pot delivered, and honestly one of the best drypots I've ever had (i eat malatang every single week). Spicy, numbing, savory, and balanced. A lot of other dry pots tend to be sesame forward, but I liked that they stayed true to the mala chili oil. It was still so good the day after omg I still dream about it“

“Buenísimo Buena comida y buena atención“

“Always love the vibe here
it’s such a cozy and comfortable late night restaurant in LA. Noticed they recently started doing drink promotions, which is an awesome bonus.
Easily one of the best Korean bars in Koreatown for food and drinks.
Will be coming back even more often now lol“

“Meal was flavorful! We all agreed the dry pot stole the show. I really liked that I could load up my bowl with a very large variety of ingredients, from vegetables to meats to noodles. There is a minimum of 16 ounces but it was nice that I could choose whatever I wanted. I also chose not to have any rice because there were more than enough ingredients. I highly recommend this place for a casual no nonsense meal!!“

“The food at Wok Bar is a mixed bag. I had the lamb and beef skewers with rice; the flavor was good, but the meat was very dry. They definitely need to include a sauce or improve the marinade. Also, be aware of their seating policy you can’t eat skewers inside unless you order the big soup, so it's mostly a take go spot for skewer lovers. Good potential, but needs better food quality.“

“Staff is so nice and always ready to help.“

“The BEST Mala tang ever!!
This was my first visit here and the staff Brian was really nice and kind!!
Plus I loved the food and place as well~
So yummy and cozy the place~~
If I could I’d give 10 of 10! ❤“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“ShaBuShi is going to be your NEW fav late night spot. It's serving up traditional Japanese Shabu Shabu, Ramen and Sushi but it's adding a Thai Twist with options such as Thai Boat Noodle Broth and Tom Yum Broth along side your typical Japanese based shabu shabu broth like sukiyaki, konbu, miso, etc. What is going to surprise you is their dipping sauce called Thai Sukiyaki (tastes like kao man gai suace) and it is absolutely a game changer. It's flavor profile that is highly addictive. It is great when the chat can't decide between Japanese or Thai or drinking. Shabushi kinda has it all and its open till 2 am. It's the go to spot for restaurant workers in the area and regular people who get off of work after 10pm. The service is friendly and knowledgeable. Ambiance is spacious and relaxed. There are so many specials that looking at the regular menu should be blocked. hehe. You gotta take advantage of their Sunset Happy Hour where apps and drinks are under $10 or if you wanna splurge the good way, check out their Shabu Duo Night Set for $48

“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.“

“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!!!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming to Kyushu Shabu for years, and it still feels like one of the most comforting meals in the city. There’s something special about a place that stays true to itself instead of chasing trends.

The AYCE value is super great, the food is simple, traditional, and genuinely delicious. The broths are light and clean in a way that highlights the purity and quality of the ingredients instead of overpowering them. Fresh meats, vegetables, and that classic shabu-shabu experience that a lot of newer, more hip spots try to imitate but never quite capture.

The staff are always incredibly kind and hardworking, and you can tell how much care they put into keeping this longtime institution going. I keep coming back because I genuinely want places like Kyushu Shabu to stay alive. Restaurants with this much history, character, and heart are becoming rare.“

“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“

“Let me start off by saying that the atmosphere was great. The vibe overall felt just right. Fransisco, the lead cook/chef was just an amazing person. The passion he has for cooking and just being attentive to his crew and everyone else around him is greatness. Steven, was also very helpful and understanding. He ls a great server/host. I had a great experience.“

“Forgot to make reservations around the Pantages but in our lack of planning we luckily found Northern Cafe for dinner before the show. The food was cooked fresh and quick. It was delicious, with excellent service and was reasonably priced for awesome hot dumplings and an expertly spiced savory beef soup. We will be coming back again.“

“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!
