Hot pot mini workshop

This place has a family owned small restaurant vibe, the family was SOOOOO nice, sweet, and attentive. Every single staff member 🥺The food wad good, quality hot pot. The broth, the items, it was a good amount and tasted quality. Their all you can drink boba was also really good. Boba soft and chewy but not too sweet and the drinks were actually good quality tea for all you can drink I was surprised. Better than quickly or other all you can drink boba places it was not too sweet and the tea flavor was strong and yummy! 12/10, will recommend and will be back! Please support this adorable family restaurant so they can expand and add more themed decor to this cute place!

Listen up, if you want a solid meal that won't empty your pockets, you need to hit up Hot Pot Mini Workshop in Ontario. This spot is seriously affordable, and the concept is pure genius.
This isn't your grandma's fondue; it's a no-nonsense, build-it-yourself hot pot setup. You get to be the boss. You pick the soup base—spicy, rich, whatever—and then you load up your bowl with exactly the ingredients you want. It's a proper, personalized feed, and frankly, it's a welcome change from the usual takeout grind. The fact that you customize it from the ground up makes it a damn good, unique meal every time.
They've got a great selection of drinks too, and the prices are more than fair. You can wash down a hefty meal without paying a premium for a soda or iced tea.
Fair warning: this place is popular, so when the rush hits, the seating can get a little tight. But that's just because the food is good and the value is unbeatable. You can deal with a crowd for a meal this customized and this easy on the wallet. Highly recommend it—go get your grub on.

This place is absolutely banging! The food is so good; I love how you can choose from pre-set bowls or you can go to the front and choose your own broth, toppings, and additions and pay by weight! We usually try out a new menu bowl each time we go to help expand our pallets a bit.

It is important to note that they really don’t do substitutions or changes to their menu bowls, so keep that in mind when ordering.

Oh and the boba! Self service boba, you mix whatever teas you want together, add whatever toppings you’re feeling, and then you’re ready to go! Truly have never been to somewhere like this before coming here and I have come again multiple times!

I don't know we're to start. It all started because we went to a restaurant dwn the street and they had a long waiting list. Knowing that we didn't have much time we ended up at Hot Pot Mini Workshop. I am so glad there was that long waiting list because I don't think I would have came to this place.

Now let's get into this. 10 out of 10! No questions asked. Plain and simple, dry and cut. Get your bowl, add you noodles, meats and veggies. At the counter select your broth and the spice levels. Let me tell you the flavors of these broths available you cannot go wrong with any. I have tried miso spicy and Taiwanese spicy both delicious!! Comes with a side of steam rice. And drinks, tea and boba available!

Give this place a try. You will not regret it!
Clean place, not so busy, and great ambiance.

Loved the food and experience. Staff was polite and attentive, helping navigate through our first time going to a hotpot place with the structure they have in place. They offer a menu with preset hotpot options or you can choose to build your own hotpot. You also get to built your own drink. Absolutely loved it and I will return and recommend.

We decided to give this place a try since we were really craving some hot pot, at first we were a little disappointed with the options because there really isn't all that much. But after getting our bowl of curry that we created ourselves the flavor was so good. Definitely a good place to go eat! We will be back for sure.
$40 for two build your own bowls is not a bad price. You are charged by the pound of toppings so your price may vary but for $40 it was well worth it.

Great experience, especially for hotpot beginners. Not the fanciest, but fun and more relaxed. $20 hot pots, really filling to me, could barely finish it. Boba L size is huge!

I didn't know what to expect but love trying new places & honestly it really it exceeded my expectactions. The flavors are amazing, and the drink options are delicious ?. I highly recommend adding Vietnamese fish cakes to your bowl. Free rice bowl included . The owner was very kind and helpful to a first timer like myself.
