Been going here since I was a kid. It’s affordable and so incredibly delicious. The staff is also very quick to help and very kind!

Classic Hot Pot!

All the ingredients are in refrigerators and you help yourself to whatever you want.

They add up the plates and your bill at the end of your meal!!

Craving Asian BBQ but don't really want to over-pay and under-eat? This is the spot for you! This Taiwanese BBQ is a self service spot. Get your chunky butt up and pull plates of meat, veggies, desserts from the freezer! Don't forget the butter!

The unlimited rice, porridge and soup helps fill what the meats don't.

The meat here is pretty basic. It's thin cuts of maranaded beef, pork, chicken, lamb, etc. Not the highest quality, but you're paying $4.99 or so per plate. Whether you grill or hotpot, you're charged for what you grab.

They have happy hours here too where you save like 15% or so! Definitely some cheap BBQ eats. Great for groups. Very interactive without overeating and without breaking the bank.

I went today with my senior parents of (group of 3) and our total was $41 after tax. Insane in 2025! If you want to go ham on the protein, maybe do a AYCE KBBQ.

My only complaint is everything is a but sticky from the bbq smoke. Definitely wear some clothes that are ready for the wash. Not a first date place. More like a go in your PJs as a fun date night after the fact. Cheers.

Perfect place to have tasty Taiwanese hot pot ~ shabu shabu style. Perfect for cold or rainy weather. Good selection of meat (meat, pork, lamb, sweet sausage), seafood and vegetables. You can also get Boba drinks ro desserts after.

For 5 dollars a plate, a plate of 4-5 pieces of cut food, the taste is not very delicious. It looked like frozen food was put on a plate, and the soup in the pot was just hot water. It's not very delicious.

After being seated at the first store I visited, I left it alone. Even though I was here for the first time, there is no proper explanation just by saying 5 dollars for the a plate, no menu, and I had to pay for the sauce and plate. It was a store I had never been to twice.

The food here is cheap and delicious, especially during the day there are discounts and special prices, everything here is very fresh with prices that don't hurt our pockets???

I give the food three points, it's quite average, nothing special, and it's not unpalatable. It may be a matter of time, there are no vegetables, and some of the meat is not particularly fresh. One point for service is the highest score I can give you. I read the reviews before going and was prepared for poor service, but I was still shocked after the experience. I wanted a big table, but the service staff told me that it could only be a single table for one person. However, the huge restaurant obviously only has one table of guests. Can't we make some changes? After the hot pot grill plate was served, until all the water in the hot pot had dried up and even started to emit black smoke, no service staff came to add water to the hot pot for me. In the end, I turned off the heat and ate in silence, paying the bill and leaving. I still politely paid a 10% service fee, but I will never come back a second time. ps There is almost no cell phone signal in the restaurant, and there is no wifi.

You pick the food for your hot pot and the veggies and protein you grill or throw in the pot ?

Dead quiet on Friday afternoon. Business must be hurting the waitress cause she was kinda rude even after i left a 10% tip, which I feel was unnecessary considering she just busses dishes and turns on the stove, the customer grabs and cooks their own food. $40 fed my family of 4. We're used to this place but today the "waiter" was blatantly rude, even ignoring our "thank you" as we left. Probably won't return after today
