Best Hot Pot in the area. Meat and service are excellent. I have been here a couple of times and both times have been great experiences. Would recommend the coconut curry broth.

This was my first time visiting Fiery Hot Pot. I was part of a 4-top party going in just after 6pm on a Sunday evening, without a reservation. We were promptly seated within 5-minutes upon arriving! The ambience is pleasant and modern, the layout with open seating tables and booths provide an option for guests to have either more intimate or informal dining scenarios. Considering you are likely to be sharing hot pot entrees, you may want to be secluded with your party or share in the delight of creating your very own version of hot pot soup making. As one of my party guests remarked, it is analogous to a "choose your own adventure game"! Which I believe is both an appropriate comparison and worthy of a chuckle. The service was prompt and courteous. We were given options to choose either the 2-meat option with 6-a la carte tapas to choose from (each), or the unlimited option. We went the route of each ordering our own 2-meats. We each chose a variation of Wagyu beef cuts, chicken breast, pork belly, and premium pork options for our respective 2-meat orders. We chose the roasted tomato and pork broth options for the soup, mild and non-spicy respectively for the spice options. As we waited for the soups to arrive, we proceeded to select our tapas to add to or adjoin our hot pot entree. The tapas offered are extensive and include a variety of greens including kale, purple sweet potato, assortments of mushrooms, vermicelli, udon, ramen, iterations of tofu, aromatics including chives, ginger, garlic, and plenty of sauces. The choices left me feeling resplendent! The tapas were chosen, artfully and dutifully. We were ready for our sumptuous soup slurping! It was delicious! We all enjoyed our meat selections and the tapas provided many twists and turns to our hunger-inspired adventure. The story evolving with each passing minute, as the soup and its story revealed its ever increasing rich flavor, the water evaporating slowly as the intensity of our added characters of meats and sides created tension and release for our main characters, our taste buds! It sure was a grand story. The meal's adventure came to an enchanting ending as we were given the option of either vanilla ice cream or a small glass of coconut Jell-O. Both provided a delightful resolution to that evening's quest. The belly's dragon being tamed, we claimed victory with the aid of Fiery Hot Pot!

Food was good. SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE. we did not feel welcomed and the server was terrible. He took our ordered, gave us our food and never returned. we only had one napkin and kept trying to get his attention for more and he would ignore us. did not refill our unlimited amount of sodas and only did it twice after asking multiple times. we seen they were giving everyone else good service but us. whenever one would leave all of the servers would say bye as they were walking out. when we left it was completely silent. we tipped but shouldn't have. overall a bad experience.

I have to say I RARELY see restaurant that can keep everywhere clean like this. The food is good and clean. All the plates and bowls are super clean. The utensils are so shiny. The service is great too! But what impressed me the most is the cleanliness in the restaurant. When I walk past the kitchen, the floor is so clean especially the floor under the shelf is exceptionally clean. I have been working for food and beverage industry as well but my workplace is not as clean as this place! The bathroom is sparkling too especially the toilet bowl. Now, I can be sure the food is good and clean and I won’t have any food poisoning afterward! Thank you for caring about the cleanliness for us! So impressive :)

Quiet and small but neat restaurant on Taravel Street with excellent service and great food. We had four people and went for the ayce which was $38 per person for 90 minutes. We had the vegetarian miso and the roast beef with mild spice. But the roast beef was still very spicy. With the ayce, we got free two oysters each which were fresh! For the meats. The American waygu was superb as was the ribeye and the chicken. The pork belly was disappointing but the lamb was delicious. The vegetables were substantial and very fresh. The service was excellent and the staff brought more meat anytime we requested it and cleared our used dishes constantly. The also refilled our soup frequently. We’ll be back!

Professional service, excellent quality meats, individual servings of produce, mushrooms, seafood, noodles and other sides abound. Oyster special night! Clean modern interior. Choice of grass jelly or ice cream and mints for dessert.

I loved the quality and flavor of the food here. The waiter was amazing as well and walked us through everything. Great place!

First time trying hotpot in San Francisco and I can say it did not disappoint, especially for the price. We could barely finish the meat, which tasted high quality and soaked up the hot pot sauces very well. I liked how you could pick 6 side dishes too including seafood, vegetables, and other things too. We opted not to do AYCE which was definitely the right decision, and listen to them when they say the broth is spicy!

This place is still one of the best! Great quality food and great staff!
This is an amazing experience. I was taken here as a birthday gift. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. It was a wonderful experience. All of the food was prepared with respect to the ingredients. They served a variety of choice meats and seafood and great quality of produce. It was a great privilege to find here. I recommend the AYCE. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer and eat more. I would definitely return.

Food is amazing. I eat here at least 3 times a month, sometimes weekly ! I'm obsessed with the food and especially the curry broth. I do miss the Sriracha, but I understand that it is expensive for a bottle. This place is AYCE or pick a set. Environment is clean. Service is amazing. They are so attentive and nice! Try this place out.

Overall pretty good. The beef varietals are pretty flavorful and tender. An especially unique and nice touch is the fish fillet. The soup flavors and condiments are probably average, but not bad. The "tapas" include a good selection. The veggies are fresh and clean. I like the shrimp paste and the tendon. I was worried the tendon would be tough, but they must already be braised because they were pretty tender and gelatinous. It soaked up the soup flavor, which was really nice. Overall, winner.
