First time trying hot pot. The server was super nice and took thier time to explain the menu and how to order. You can choose 2 diffrent broths with spice levels.or just one pot. Then you add meat and veggies. They have a sauce bar which was fun to creat mix or just choose from there.

This was my first Chinese hotpot experience. We checked in with the online Yelp waiting list via tablet at the front of the restaurant, and it took us about 30 mins to be seated. The vibes inside felt like I was transported in a different world. However, I felt the outdoor area could be a bit cleaner. After we were seated, we selected two broths: bone broth and medium spicy special broth. Our favorite of the two was medium spicy, but both flavors were delicious and flavorful.The positives: the fatty beef was delicious! Fish balls and woodear mushrooms were tasty as well. There are many options to use at their self-serve sauce bar. Service was good; we utilized the bell by our seat to request extra water from time to time. Staffs offered if we wanted to do any takeout, so we packed our fried mantou and even got some extra condensed milk on the side too.As for my other thoughts, I tried the plum juice for the first time. Because it tasted more like barbeque sauce than a fruit juice, I was put off. Also, the fried bread was brought cold instead of warm. It was my first time trying these, so I'm not sure if this is how it's supposed to be.Anyway, all in all, not bad experience!

A super causal but fun place for friends. I ended up coming in for lunch and didn’t wait to be seated. The service was really quick and ordering via the QR code made things really convenient. The beef oil broth was spicy and delicious, I ended up opting for only the one since it was so good. I recommend the mushrooms and spicy beef. But you can’t go wrong!Vegetarian options: All made to orderDietary restrictions: All made to orderParking: Several paid lots nearbyWheelchair accessibility: All one level

It's been WAY too long since I had hot pot. My sister and I stopped by and it was a great experience overall! Interior/Exterior decor: I really liked the vibe and design of the place. It gave a taste of the Chinese culture. The outside was more hipster and the inside was like going to Hong Kong, with the streets signs and pictures. Food: It is pricey, BUT I think it's worth it and it's so filling! Lots of great options to choose from and I really liked how you can choose two soup bases. Overall would definitely come again!

Order thru their app. After ordering, Food and soup was served pretty fast. We got the lamb, tofu platter and veggies. All Fresh ingredients. I was also impressed that the sauce and snack bar is tidy and clean. Love their seaweed appetizer and sweet soup dessert from the bar. After hotpot, need something sweet to clean the palate. One thing I notice is that the fan above our table on the wall was very dusty. I was glad that it wasn't turned on. The dusty fan looks dated so maybe it was intended to be part of the decoration along with the dust.
