Hot Pot Restaurants in Los Angeles, CA

“Didn't fail to meet our expectations. We had a table of 4 and we were good to go in just about 30 minutes. The noodles and meat were so good and the staff were very attentive. Our server, Evelyn refilled water and broth as well as bringing us our food. As a fellow food enjoyer I would definitely have to put this hotpot place up there it was so good. Very great place and I will definitely be coming back.“

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

“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“

“Had such a great time at Lucky Mizu! The hospitality was amazing and the food was so good. Their baked rolls are super tasty, and the soup was honestly exquisite. Drinks were solid too, but what really made the night special were the Latino chefs at the bar seriously the sweetest people! So warm and welcoming. Our night started off a little odd since our party of 7 got seated at the bar instead of a table. We usually like to sit at a table to catch up, but the staff was so accommodating that we quickly forgot about it. They made sure we were comfortable and taken care of the whole time. Overall, I love Level 8 and can't wait to come back for dinner and drinks. Our whole group loved everything about it!“

“We came here for our anniversary and had an absolutely perfect tonight! The staff was wonderful, very friendly, and the restaurant is new and beautiful. We got the Shabu Shabu and sushi combination and every single dish they brought was fantastic. We just got back from Japan a month ago and were missing it, and this entire experience was so authentically Japanese and the quality was absolutely five stars! Highly recommend and they have a ton of menu options for vegan, no fish, etc. The cocktails and dessert were great too! We will be back!“

“If you’re looking for a dry hot pot place, you should check this place out. It’s very tasty, and I’ve been coming back many times. They also close very late, so you can get late-night snacks here to go. Valet parking only for $5 within 1 hour.“

“We recently embarked on a three-week west coast “foodie” vacation, spanning five states and six major cities. Along the way, we dined at everything from Michelin-starred establishments to small mom-and-pop restaurants. By the end of our trip, everyone in our group unanimously agreed that our experience at Tensho was one of the absolute highlights.

From the warm hospitality and the evident pride in food preparation to the impeccable service and outstanding flavors, everything about our visit was memorable. We left the restaurant on a true “food high,” feeling as though if the entire world could experience what we just had, it might inspire world peace.

Be sure to order the wagyu—it’s an absolute must and a true indulgence!“

“As a hotpot foodie, by far, this is the most authentic place in town. Not only loved their main menu, hotpot and dry pot, but also enjoyed cucumber, fried sweet buns, and lamp skewers. With icy beer, yum!

The place was welcoming and clean. I also appreciated the prompt service.👍“

“Delicious chuan chuan and hotpot. Great service. Very good portions for such cheap price. Currently they have buy one get one for drinks. We got a tomato soup hotpot that had a lot of veggies and meat and fishballs in it. The pork and lamb chuan chuan were flavored well.“

“Definitely my top 5 favorite restaurant in Ktown!! The food is so good, probably because the selections here are always so fresh and so clean. It’s always a pleasant experience to dine in here. The people working here are also very kind and helpful.

Btw, if it matters to you, they have THE cleanest restroom I have ever seen in Ktown.“

“This is THE SPOT to kick a cold or amp up your immune system. Super strong spicy flavor and the numbing effect seems to help it go away after - almost like wasabi. Lots of fresh ingredients to choose from. The service was also great - super fast and helpful. It is on the expensive side depending on how much you get - just have to watch the weight if you don’t want to spend too much. This place is definitely an experience!“

“I ordered the SP D Combo with army stew, spicy chicken feet, corn cheese, and seaweed rice ball — everything was delicious! The flavors were rich and well-balanced. The spicy chicken feet at level 1 were just the right amount of heat for me — super flavorful without being overwhelming. Definitely a great spot for Korean comfort food. Highly recommend for late night meal.“

“Jing-gee Skhan is there specialty. I only come here for this. Save room for congee at the end.“

“What was that? Swai fried easy with panko breadcrumbs? Fresh shrimp fried rice with the right amount of green onion to enhance the flavor? This was a delicious choice for a light Sunday evening dinner with the family. I recommend this restaurant for its food, courteous service and reasonable prices.“

“This place is absolutely delicious. The food is fresh and tasty. The fried rice is tasty and so is the orange chicken, which is soft and tender. Noodles were a little little oily but that's okay because they are super tasty. My lady and I really enjoyed our dinner. Thank you!“

“On the 3rd floor above Kinokuniya in Little Tokyo. This cozy restaurant serves shabu shabu and kushiyaki with options of beef, chicken, pork, and seafood. Different dipping sauce for each type of food and served with miso soup and rice. You have the option of ordering half size, full size, or all you can eat.“

“Nice restaurant in Westwood Village that is close to UCLA. The hotpot here is solid, though the portions of meat are a little small. When you come in the staff indicates to you that you can order from the QR code on the table. While you can pay seamlessly with mobile payment options, the staff were extremely inattentive after this, while things like napkins were not located in easily accessible places nor offered to us. Besides that, the interior was a nice place to sit in and enjoy our food.“

“I’ve eaten here about 5 times now and easily is one of my favorite places to eat in LA! They offer all you can eat shabu for affordable prices in comparison to many other places, it’s about $28 a person but the selections are good and completely satisying, and even include sushi. The veggie/buffet bar also has delicious things, plus tasty sauces to go with your food. If you ever go do not fail to get the tom yum broth and sukiyaki sauce for your meats! It is insanely delicious and flavorful. Atmosphere is quiet and relaxing too :) Thank you Shabushi for the great service and eats!“

“The best comfort soup-type of foos in westwood village. I would eat here after class all the time when I lived in Westwood, and I still try and stop by here whenever I'm visiting campus. I love their kimchi beef mixian, not as sour/salty/spicy as a jjigae since the broth is a lot lighter and milder, but it works REALLY well with the chunks of brisket and pieces of kimchi they put in there. I always try to take some home but I never have leftovers, it's THAT comforting (especially on a cold day). Their other menu options including the hot pots and mixians have been great as well, and they always have a daily special. Keep in mind this is not family style but the portions are enormous and you'll very likely have leftovers to take home, so the price is a great value. Finally, the staff are the sweetest people in the world and they're really friendly so try and get to know them! (And they gave me complementary fruit on a hot day lol).“
