Hot Pot Restaurants near Jersey City, NJ

“The food was fresh and delicious. The staff are very professional and this place is also kid friendly. It gets super busy and crowded so go early if possible. I definitely recommend and will be coming back.“

“Tried it for the first time today and it was amazinggg. Hidden gem in the mall food court. We tried the beef rice bowl and the fried crispy chicken rice bowl. The chicken was crispy and the spices blended together so well. The beef bowl was also some of the best ive tried.

The guys at the front were really nice and helpful with what to recommend too.“

“Solid Chinese noodle soup spot with very authentic flavors. I dined in a few weeks ago for a quick lunch and found the dining room relaxing and clean, with easily accessible water, tableware, and napkins. I enjoyed the minced pork noodle soup, very filling and a pretty good value for the area.

Be warned, if you’re a spice baby like me, the menu is very spicy-forward so your options may be limited.“

“Decoration is awesome, food quality is No.1👍👍“

“The food is incredible and the service is amazing. All waiters are super nice and well accommodate you as needed. Definitely give it a try!“

“Host a birthday party there. We booked a large room to fit over 10 people. The room was in basement but it is very nice, because it has ktv as well. The service is pretty good too. The waiter helps us change plate quite often. They also give free dishes and gift. They have various seafood and all of them are fresh and live. Overall it was a amazing place to enjoy seafood.“

“Best korean shabu in Fortlee“

“Everything is good“

“Very nice 1st time experience very good selection for all you can eat hot pot . All the staff was super helpful and kind .Highly recommend this restaurant if your a local or visitor“

“Not even exaggerating: this was one of my favorite dining experiences to date! Had a surprise birthday party for a friend in one of the private back rooms, and the staff was so accomodating, helpful, and friendly. Our waiter, Chris, was especially awesome: he was super sociable and patient with any questions we had about the food, the hotpot process, and splitting the check. The energy of this place was so warm and inviting- anyone looking to host a night out with friends: rest assured, you will have a great time and memorable experience here. I haven't even started talking about the food.

The wagyu beef is absolutely worth the cost. There are more affordable items on the menu and they are also yummy but guess what? Everything felt priced so accordingly that it is 100% worth spending that extra money on those special menu items. The thin wagyu melts so perfectly into the delicious broths, the thought of it will keep me up at night. Treat yourself and get that meat!!

And my god. The broths. Holy cow. I got the spicy broth, and it was the perfect level of heat* that, combined with the huge selection of sauces, made the proteins and noodles DIVINE... THE RICE CAKES TOO omg.. The tofu, fish balls, and mushrooms were all also really well sourced, just really premium products priced very modestly for how quality they all were. *note: be ready for the peppers that have the slightly numbing/tingling effect- not on a Szechuan level, but a nice and perfect build that makes each ingredient have a beautiful taste profile.

We had the table with personal pots/induction stoves, so all the proteins/veggies we shared, but we would also pass along samples of the other broths to each other, and I wish I had ordered my own bowl of the seasonal vietnamese pho broth too because the one small bowl I sampled was heavenly.

I will definitely be back again to try the drinks, they looked fantastic and the ambience of the bar felt so nice.

Also, just realized I was too engulfed by the good food and fun with friends that I forgot to take pics. It was that good man“

“Absolutely fantastic. The whole place is a vibe. The decor is great. The crowd is great. The food, omg..... amazing. Just simply amazing. Probably the best hot pot experience I have ever had. Everything was delicious. Runs on the spicy side, and I do not say that lightly as I love spicy food. So, if you like medium spicy, get the mild, LOL.

The broth was fantastic, so so flavorful. The sauce station had everything. The meats were so good, amazing quality. The enochi mushrooms were absolutely divine. And the noodles were off the hook.

This place is a must stop by if you like Hot Pot and are in NYC.“

“This authentic and yet upscale hotpot restaurant is fabulous, worth to visit again ( in which, I am returning AGAIN today with a party of 6!) Highly recommend Dolar Shop Manhattan to anyone who loves hot pot because of the following: -Excellent friendly service ( special thanks to Jason's exceptionally wonderful, attentive service, as well as the incredible professional manager Charles ) - Flavorful broth - large variety of food to choose from - high quality meat choice ( fine wagyu beef , USDA PRIME boneless short ribs, as well as fresh seafood ) Fresh and crisp veggies - clean environment“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“Great place to take your friends and family. Service is quick and attentive and matches how great the food is. The revolving concept of the hot pot toppings is great and their sauces are 10/10. I’ve been here 4 times and will be coming back again.“

“My absolute favorite place!“

“If you're craving hot pot in the LIC area, this is a solid choice. Price obviously depends how much you get; dining as a party of 4, we spent around $50pp. Everything can be requested or ordered via the iPad (including a call service button), so there's limited direct contact with staff. I like how they provide bags for jackets to make sure not ALL of your possessions come out of the restaurant smelling like hotpot.

While it makes sense to have a big table to hold all of our ingredients, I felt the distance from one end to the table to the other was large! We had to raise our voices to talk to each other.

The sauce bar has the essentials as well as 2 side dishes (altho I don't remember what they were, I didn't end up getting them) and orange slices (we ate those at the end of the meal).

There is only one bathroom for the entire restaurant, so there was a bit of a line when I had to go.“

“Amazing food,amazing service,the owner and employees are super nice and helpful and very kind, this was our first time, me and my kids, we just love it 😍 definitely will be one of our favor spots 💖I really recommend it to everyone 😋😋😋“

“Malamini is my go-to comfort food spot near home. Whenever I don’t know what to eat, I end up getting their malatang. The sesame sauce is especially good and really makes the bowl. Their ice cream is also surprisingly great. Simple, satisfying, and always hits the spot.“

“Love it great service will be back i really recomendit“

“Amazing Korean buffet-style shabu shabu! The veggie and side selections are extensive with tons of fresh options, and the meat choices are plentiful and high quality. Portions are very generous, the staff is super welcoming, and the prices are extremely reasonable for what you get. Highly recommend this place if you’re craving shabu shabu, it’s very close to the experience of eating it in South Korea. Will definitely be back! 🍲🔥“

“Great service. We got a private room so it was cozy and intimate with my friends. There was a huge selection of food. There’s a man outside who grills mussels and oysters outside, and it’s part of the hotpot experience. Definitely recommend.“

“The best one“

“Very nice 1st time experience very good selection for all you can eat hot pot . All the staff was super helpful and kind .Highly recommend this restaurant if your a local or visitor“

“Randomly decided to dine here before a show at Webster Hall. Every single thing we ordered was absolutely delicious. Teppen gyoza, kimchi beef fried rice, dynamite roll, and mango martini. Definitely plan on returning.“

“A solid and very good 4/5. 💝

Great food! 🥰

Having Szechwan dry pot as an option is incredible for non-soup-wanters! 😋

A pretty safe introduction to hot pot with a few ingredients you likely haven't tried before to boot! 🪷

Overall it won't kill you with spicy so feel free to ask for extra hot! 🌶️

The sauce bar left a bit to be desired--it was low/out of everything. 😭

The vibe? Hot pot made accessible, easy, and fast! 🌸“

“Our daughter took us here while we were visiting NY for her graduation for Wagyu Shabu. I normally don't like places with many prices, but since our daughter chose it so we enjoy with her. The prices on the windows are very confusing and more like false advertising for me, the lower prices are for the members which we're not since this is our first time and definitely our last, unless our daughter wants to come here again. So the price is the more expensive one.
For me, I prefer straight forward pricing, so this didn't give me good vibes, it's not the money, just the way they advertising and we have to know what we can only have with the price we chose. The restaurant just gives us the specific menu for what we selected to have then we don't have to be denied for what we chose because we selected gold instead of top of the line menu.
The place is clean and nice.
For $78/per person and only have Australian Wagyu Beef (not really Wagyu) then it's over priced.
We did have some premium beef which I liked because of the marble of fat on the beef quite tender and tasty, but only a sampler or whatever they called it.
Service with one person is quite inadequate but she's very attentive and pleasant, since she had to run the whole restaurant, sometimes forgets things.
The tomato broth was good and everyone liked it.
The seafood plate is OK and our sweet shrimps are sweet. Some snow crab legs, jumbo shrimps, fish fillets, nothing to make me go wow.
The appetizers tempura is crispy and good. The raw octopus is tasty.
The vegetables are fresh and clean.
After they denied me the premium beef sampler, I let my daughter to order everything else and I just enjoyed with the family. My daughter seemed to be happy and ate a lot, so I was happy.
I've eaten enough shabu, hot pot to know that Australian or American Wagyu are overrated, many of them are tough and chewy, not as tender as normal ribeyes or Brisket that I like.
This restaurant Wagyu beef does have marbles of fat in it, so it's tender and not so chewy.
So, for the GOLD menu, I don't think it's worth the $78 but for special occasions, it's OK. I just don't like the confusion of many menu, many prices, and not getting my own menu and get denied for something on the menu because I didn't pay enough.“

“Very nice 1st time experience very good selection for all you can eat hot pot . All the staff was super helpful and kind .Highly recommend this restaurant if your a local or visitor“

“The food was delicious and the portions were big. The meal comes with complimentary chicken feet. We had a dry pot with 2 meats and 4 veggies (and it came with peanuts and cilantro) and a small order of hot and sour fish (which looked like a medium portion!). Everything was very flavorful! You can choose your spice level for dry pot. White rice is complimentary and you can ask for more.

The prices were very reasonable. It came out to a little over $40, before tip :) my dad and I ate until we were stuffed and went home with leftovers enough for 2-3 meals!

Service was good. My server was also able to speak multiple dialects of Chinese and English.“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“food, place and friendly staff“

“Interesting place and fast service“

“I absolutely love this place. I have a very bad case of long covid since October 2021 where almost everything smells and tastes rotten or sickly sweet. I am able to eat the hot pot miso ramen soup with a lot of different vegetables, and I can have the chocolate cake/cupcakes. So delicious! I can also eat the white rice and the grilled pineapples. Before finding out that I can have all of this, I was losing a massive amount of weight, thank God for the few things that I can have here, I’m able to maintain my weight now. I just tend to go a bit crazy with what I can eat because I’m so hungry from not really eating the other days. The workers are amazing. The manager, Justin is really nice and very funny. The owner Darin is also very nice. Love the atmosphere and the music, I still can’t eat the other things and the smells from the other foods still bother me but I deal with it just so I can eat what I’m actually enjoying there. Thanks kpot for being the first restaurant where I’m actually eating some things that I can enjoy. Highly recommend this place, especially this location. Twenty stars“

“This place is sooo good, by far the best malatang place in the area. It is new, clean, spacious, and the ingredients are super fresh. The service is very attentive - unlike other malatang places, they even cut up your vegetables for you! Highly recommend. Will be coming back on a regular basis.“

“It's not a bad place, i had the fatty lamb with sichuan soup base, it was what i expected it to be, not bad, but burning to write home about, i like this type of eating where there's no waiters, you just order get your food and do your thing, they gave allot of soup, my order was pretty satisfying, price wise it was also pretty average, in total this place is a nice spot to try out, of you dunno what to eat then this is a good place to go the menu is very customizable and small so it's not overwhelming, nice place to come for a fast dinner after work, very recommendable. But also again, very average, maybe that's actually a plus though.“

“I’m a regular here (at least twice a month!) and love this place. The mala hot pot is always flavorful, and the sweet and sour pork is so good — I order it almost every time.

FYI: if you order the sweet and sour pork, give them a little extra time since it’s made fresh. Definitely one of my go-to spots!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Came to KPOT BBQ for the food and left raving about the entire experience. The food was great, fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you walk into a place like this. But somehow the service was even better. Shoutout to Stella, our server, who absolutely made the night. Attentive, friendly, funny, and on top of everything without ever hovering. She handled our table like a pro and cooked some of our food for us too! , even while I was clearly having the time of my life and probably making a bit of a spectacle of myself. Stella, if you’re reading this, thank you for making an already great meal unforgettable. And if by some chance you felt the same good vibes, feel free to reach out. Either way, KPOT BBQ has a customer for life.“

“It was an amazing Shabushabu experience, we got The Premium Course ($178 per person), where the meal was mostly served with A5 Miyazaki Wagyu.

Attentive service where the staff explained which sauce to pair with the meat. I never thought you could dip your meat into different combinations of sauces. The best pairing was the A5 Miyazaki Wagyu with Karajiru and Nori paste.

Overall, a very cozy and delicious meal.“

“Hands down probably the best Chinese food in the city. I could eat here everyday.“

“If you a big back like me then dis is so worth. I can eat $100 worth of this and pay only $60.

Al la carte skewers at other places would drain my wallet 😭. This place mad good and money woof.

Staff has very limited English so just pull out Google translator 🥴✌. Still get the job done.

Drinks are included. Menu is huge, bunch of appetizers.

P.S. dis is not a halal establishment.“

“Great food,great atmosphere As same industry we are take them as role models“

“Lunch special sets start daily at 11 am. I like the boiled fish set meal and the spicy hot pot set meal. Each lunch special also includes 10 extra skewers of your choice of grilled meats and a complimentary bottle of soft drink, cola, chrysanthemum tea, and hawthorn juice. Available in mild, medium, and spicy flavors. You can also choose the daily self-service meal mode. I haven't planned to try the grilled fish yet. Mala Tang is much better than Yang Guofu and Zhang Liang's. The key to delicious mala tang lies in its seasoning techniques.“

“Parking comps for upstairs for 3hrs. The sauce bar is good, the snacks are interesting and the pots can be 1,2, or 3 styles of soup base. Good pricing and only issue is seating is for 4 or 6; one table of 8 available. So big parties may need to split up a bit. Definitely a fan of the snacks, good service, and they gave a little toy to the kids, too!

Broth has gotten better in 2026, but service a bit less and they are less busy. They had to add an all-you-can-eat option on M-Thu (Fri before 5p) and while that is good, overall they are struggling a bit to keep the same foot traffic as before. A bit of a bummer as they do have a good selection and are convenient.“

“great dumplings with a atmosphere to match!“

“They take their last order at 2.45pm and we were there at 3pm. Very hungry and very very late as we had to rush to catch our flight from New Jersey. We requested and they were very sweet to accommodate my daughter and me -two hungry souls.
They not only went out of the way to feed us beyond their kitchen timings, but offered us a very unique dish - octopus with wasabi! An amazing new addition to my Japanese favourites. While waiting for the main course, the sushi chef presented a beautiful show with a variety of amazing sushi rolls. They were amazing. The main course was served hot and fresh which we could only finish a portion of due to time constraints and they got the rest of it packed for us to enjoy on the way to the airport. All that care, love and amazing food was topped by a sushi platter packed for us - on the house, complimentary from their side.
Truly speaking the last meal in NY couldn’t be more special!
Thankyou team WANO for this!
Gratitude! Love from India ❤️“

“We haven’t been in four years. We were pleasantly surprised by how good the food remains and how refreshed the restaurant look after the renovation from 2 yrs ago. The restaurant looks brighter, lighter and just more fun. The night we came for dinner, the clientele seemed younger and again more fun. That said, the star of the night remains the food. The beef in our sukiyaki was soft, and super yummy. The veggies were complimentary and rounded out the flavors of our dish. We ordered extra prime beef, and veggies and noodles. We also order more beer and sake. We totally enjoyed our evening. If you have never been or haven’t been in a while come again or come back and give it another try. You won’t be disappointed and we highly recommend.“

“蕎麦打ちがいい感じ！“

“Amazing food and brilliant service“

“Food was on point! Best I've ever had any where I've gone. Will be making this a must stop, every year when we visit!“

“I visited Namhansanseong in Palisades Park and had a really great experience! The food tastes very authentic and everything was well prepared. The dishes were clean, fresh, and full of flavor, just like real Korean food. The service was also friendly and the atmosphere felt comfortable. I would definitely come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for good Korean food in Palisades Park!“
