An extremely friendly welcome even though, as French neophytes, we had absolutely no understanding of how the menu and the operating procedure worked. Very pleasant servers and excellent dishes, very spicy but perfectly executed. 10/10 and not very expensive for Boston ☑️

Very bad table arrangement. Even if I have the reservation, I still can’t find a place to sit and eat. The reception lady can’t do well on her job just simply kept the customer waiting.

Qiao Lin hotpot is a newer hot pot restaurant located in Allston, outside of Packard's Corner but still closeby. The interior is very modern, with large glass windows and white countertops, with a mix of Asian inspired decor throughout the place. The wait for the restaurant was quite long, but we were seated quickly due to our party being located there.
The service was fast and efficient. They explained everything well and even offered suggestions of what to get.
There is a robust saucebar at this location, as well as fruits and other appetizer soups available for free at said sauce bar. The selection of meats and vegetables is vast. Although this place isn't AYCE, the portions for the price were decent, and we were full after finishing our meal. I'd highly recommend the 1 meter beef, as the meat cooked very quickly and went well with the broths. We got the tomato, herbal chicken, and lvl 1 spicy Chongqing broth, which had a bit of numbness in it that may be offputting to those not used to Mala spices or Sichuan peppers.
Overall a great experience and would highly recommend checking out.

Overall it's a delicious hot pot. You can choose from three kinds of soups which are great. The spicy hot pot is quite spicy. Those who can't tolerate spicy food should choose carefully. I think it will cost about 50 yuan per person to be full~
There are all-you-can-eat side dishes in the store, but you still have to wait when you arrive at 8:30 on weekdays, so it’s best to make a reservation in advance!
