My roommate and I came here for lunch a little bit ago. When we went the place was empty, but was to be expected considering it was like 1pm on a wednesday. there was one employee working at the time and it took us a pretty long time to flag her down after making our meat selection. the buffet was.. interesting. The vegetables they had available did not seem fresh, which was disappointing. The hotpot itself was fine, but my roommate and I both ended up feeling pretty sick later that evening. probably not coming to eat here again.

I've been going here for a while now and I always love the selection and the taste of the hot pot broths. I don't go here for the BBQ but I always recommend the hot pot. The ingredients are fresh and the workers are pleasant.

Great experience! We came here for a friend’s birthday and everything was perfect! The food was very good and the broth is the most flavorful I’ve had at a hotpot place.

My broth was served with a hair in it. I immediately flagged down the server. The server doubled down saying that it was not hair. I told the server to get the manager and I requested that my meal be taken off my bill. The manager finally came by after a few times of me asking and got me a new bowl, but I was ultimately given just a $3 discount on my meal as opposed to a full refund.

We decided to try this place out after reading some of the good reviews, however as soon as we sat down we were informed that they don’t offer the bbq anymore and only do hotpot. My partner had been looking forward to the bbq aspect, so this was a bit of a letdown. The food was pretty good, however midway through our meal we began to smell a very strong bleach/cleaning chemical smell. I’m not sure if they were cleaning in the back or why this happened but it was a bit off putting and certainly affected our appetites.

Loved this place for what they had to offer. Had no time limit on dining and had plenty of food options. My main grievance is their options not all being tender cuts. Some meats come out very tough and unappetizing. However, the good cuts were great and we ordered a lot of those. The lighting feels sterile with strong white lights. A slightly warmer color would be more welcoming.

I had a terrible experience at Kungfu HotPot BBQ in Newark, DE. The customer service was awful — the server spoke so quietly that I couldn’t understand a word he was saying, which made ordering frustrating. For the high prices they charge, you would at least expect the equipment to work, but the grill pan never got hot enough even on the highest setting. On top of that, they served me spoiled meat — both the steak and the chicken had a sour smell that was impossible to ignore. Between the poor service, broken equipment, and questionable food quality, this place is absolutely not worth the money.

This place used to be so good. We had been coming here for the past few years and in the beginning it was great. But recently it has gone down hill. Quality of the food has gone down and not as many selections like it was previously.

My second to last visit had to return pork that smelled weird and was discolored. My most recent visit both my partner and I got sick. We thoroughly cooked our food and ate different items and both ended up with food poisoning. We will not be coming back.

It’s truly awful how this place has changed and it’s not for the better.

Went here for bbq and pretty decent experience. It is like a true buffet that you not only pick food but also pick your own utensils, drinks, etc. Very convenient as you can use the tablet for almost everything (even ask for grill change). Most meats are good but the black pepper beef is really bad, too many tendons embedded, almost not eatable.
