Best hot pot place I've tried so far. I love the duck, which they wrapped in a crepe with hoisin sauce and green onion. We had the Tom Yum soup base, which had a little spicy heat. You can have them adjust it if you don't want it too spicy. It was very good. We ordered the beef as our meat, and for vegetables with had lettuce, Napa cabbage, 2 types of mushrooms, puff tofu, and kabocha squash. We also had fish balls stuffed with fish roe. They have sauce bar for you to choose your dipping sauce. The dessert bar had this delicious chrysanthemum Boba jelly dessert, white fungus with dates dessert, and fresh sliced oranges. Their chrysanthemum dessert was refreshing and perfect light dessert to end our lunch. They also have noodles, fried rice, and honey prawns to get yourself next to the dipping sauce bar. I will definitely come back. The place is located across from the Livermore Outlet. Plenty of parking when we arrived.

Was skeptical at first due to bad reviews. We are not from here but decided to drop by. The service was very quick, and the lady was so friendly! The food was good, just not a big fan of the side dishes, wish they had a better variety. Other than that, would come here again!

⭐️ 1 star | Very Disappointing Experience – Will Not Return

I visited Top Pot Restaurant in Dublin in late May, and unfortunately, the experience was thoroughly disappointing. I would not recommend this place.

First, the moment I walked in, the music was loud and fast-paced, creating a rushed and stressful atmosphere — it felt more like they wanted you to eat quickly and leave rather than enjoy your meal. It completely ruined my appetite.

Second, the cleanliness was unacceptable. The floor was sticky, clearly not cleaned properly, and the tables were dirty with peeling paint. It gave a very unhygienic impression.

Third, the food itself was poor. The hot pot broth was way too salty, almost undrinkable. The selection of ingredients was very limited, and nothing looked particularly fresh. The vegetable choices were especially lacking.

Lastly, the tipping policy was shocking — the minimum tip starts at 18% and seems to be mandatory, regardless of service quality. This felt unreasonable, especially considering the overall experience.

In summary, the place felt unclean, the food wasn’t fresh, and the atmosphere was unpleasant. No matter the price, I would never return and cannot recommend it to others.

Their soup is good. Best of all the hotpot nearby. Their quality of meat is much better as well, great side options as well. Friendly family service!

Quality of hot pot meats is fine. Angus beef tonight was the best selection. The fatty beef was dry and don't even try to order the pork - way too dry. The best part is the unlimited roast duck wraps. I haven't had the savory crepe for Peking duck in forever! The skews were good too but hot pot is just fine.

This place is the best all you can eat hotpot I ever had in the area. You can eat Peking duck roll and the skewers which are very delicious. The service is fast and friendly.

Got seated quicky on Saturday at 6pm.
You order with a dry erase marker and mark up the menu. Includes roast duck wraps, lamb & beef skewers-- in theory it is part of the all-you-can-eat menu but bf and I was too full to order a 2nd round!! This is because while you wait for them to bring out your food, there is a self service sauce bar and food bar-- rice, chowmein, mala cold noodles, mala tripe, honey walnut shrimp, 2 types of chinese sweet dersert (fungus sweet soup and grass jelly/tapioca sweet soup), and oranges. All in all, we regret ordering beef tripe bc my bf got 2 servings of the mala tripes... we ended up with too much tripe. Also regret ordering noddles bc we loved the mala noodles as well. The pork bone broth was authentic and healthy. Can't wait to come again!

Excellent service.
Food arrives quick.
Amazing food.
Neat.
Nice surroundings.
I took my three daughters out to eat hot pot today. Highly recommend the Peking duck. The service is also great. They check in on you constantly and quickly provide you with the things you need.

Almost didn’t try because of the negative reviews, now it’s my default hotpot place in the area.

Good meats, quality complementary sides, and free duck rolls? I mean come on! Plus the lady is super nice and friendly.

Honestly couldn’t think of a reason to be negative.

It’s a hotspot buffet with only one round allowed. We requested a second round but it never arrived. Service was nonexistent, yet they charged an 18% minimum service fee. Will never go there again.
