overall, everything was okay and decent but the service really ticked me off.
i was on a budget and it fit well into what i was hoping to spend, until i had to pay for the tips. i wanted to leave an 8% tip because it would go over the amount of money i want to spend. then, this guy named “xin yan” (which was the name in my receipt) told me that i had to leave a 17% tip. i refused and said that i really want to tip just 8%. he then tries to pressure me into tipping more money and i kept being patient and kindly refused. he didnt even do much to gain that amount of tips, as he only just served food and offered me more broth. its not mandatory to leave tips and its my choice to leave as much as i want. i eventually just gave him the 8% tip but then he told me if i wasnt going to leave more tips then i should never come back?? xin yan is rude and his comment really ticked me off. if you want to come here, then be ready to argue with some employees for tipping under 17%…

there was a nice variety of food and broths to choose from as well as sauces, drinks, and other side dishes. i wasnt a fan of everything but it was good to try new things! they came promptly after requested. some of the food tasted off, though, like the quail eggs which were fishy. they also give you ice cream at the end which hit the spot!!

Beware The AYCE is not as is, you have to buy the soup base then + AYCE Price ( 2 Adult $65.96 then Soup three flavor is $19.98) now that I am checking the price I guess they charged us $32.98 per person, I thought it was around $30 anyway thats fine.
The food was mid, I did really like the chicken bones, the beef were okay, not the best cut of meats. I should have went to Hai di lao instead the price for AYCE for quality is just not justifiable and plus you had to buy the soup base anyway which is crazy for AYCE!
Service was okay until we had to leave Tips, the person (Xin Yan) who is the name listed on my bill, I assume he was the same guy who we had to deal with. When I was about to give my tip on my card (11% before tax) , he asked if something is wrong and that I should leave the minimum tip that he is asking and he was just standing there putting pressure. First of all why you looking at how much I am giving, they dont give any privacy to customers? I do get they want more tip, but forcing customer to give certain amount of tip is crazy. My mother had to put him in place saying we arent forced by law to do such thing. I mean what did they do? Refil soup and serve the food which is part of their job they get paid to do and it is part of the food we paid to be delivered to us. You have to get your own drinks in this place also. He should be grateful he has a job.
After we walked out of the store he was still yelling and telling us to never come back as if he owns the place. We will most definely not come back and I would suggest others to go to Hai di lao instead , you can probably get better treatment and appreciation.

Great food and service, as my recent late night trip here, per discussion with the owner, there were new updates on their operations time, they now offer late night services, restaurant close at 2:00 AM, kitchen closed at 1:00 AM
Liu Yi Shou AYCE Hotpot continues to impress me every single time I visit and trust me, I’ve been here more times than I can count. Even though I didn’t get any photos this round (the food distracted me in the best way possible), the experience was unforgettable. And yes, I’ll absolutely be back with my camera ready next time.
Their soup bases alone are worth the trip. The Wild Mushroom Soup Base has leveled up in flavour it’s packed with earthy depth and now includes cordyceps and red dates, which not only add to the richness but are also amazing for your health. The Tomato Soup Base is tangy and comforting, while the Braised Duck with Pickled Radish is savory and unique, with a slight tartness that balances the richness of the broth. But the real showstopper for me is the Pork Stomach with Chicken Soup Base warming, hearty, and deeply flavorful. Each one is crafted with care and makes every ingredient shine.
Speaking of ingredients the selection is honestly overwhelming in the best way. From fatty beef, lamb, pork belly, beef tongue, and ox tongue to more adventurous offerings like spam, pork brain, duck feet, pork kidney, and Japanese fish cake there’s no shortage of variety. Their seafood spread includes shrimp, arctic clam, mussel, sole fish, cuttlefish, and a full line of meatballs (beef, pork, cuttlefish, and fish) that soak up flavor beautifully.
Vegetarians and veggie lovers will be happy too. They offer tofu in every form imaginable silken tofu, frozen tofu, tofu skin, bean curd, and fried gluten balls. There’s also lettuce, cabbage, radish, potato, and corn all great for soaking up the broth and adding some fresh balance to the meal. And if you’re a carb-lover, don’t worry they’ve got all kinds of noodles to finish off your hotpot feast just right.
The mushroom selection is also no joke: enoki, oyster, king oyster, shiitake, and black fungus all bring different textures and earthy notes that elevate every bite.
Don’t skip the braised dishes at the hot bar either especially the pig feet, lotus root, and quail eggs. They’re rich, flavorful, and absolutely comforting. And let’s not forget the sauce bar gorgeous, clean, and stocked with everything you need to make your dream dipping sauce.
The cherry on top? They’re open late, which makes this spot perfect for a spontaneous dinner or a satisfying late-night craving.
Liu Yi Shou is consistently delicious, offers an incredible selection, and somehow keeps improving with every visit. Highly, highly recommend and I’ll definitely be back soon (with pictures to do it justice next time)!
