Hot Pot Restaurants near Long Island City, NY

“the staff here is super friendly and nice don't get me wrong, the food here is also super good but i'm just salty at the fact that they only have AYCE after 9pm and every other time of the day they only do a la carte, other than that their opening hours are kind of short too“

“We had a great time eating hot pot here. The coconut chicken hot pot is delicious, and the service is also great. The staff helped us cook the chicken, distributed the soup to everyone, and even helped us pick chicken out when it’s in the best texture. The ingredients are also high quality. Highly recommend!“

This restaurant truly impressed us. The food was delicious and creatively prepared. What made the night extra special was our server, J a c k. H e wa sincredibly kind, knowledgeable about the menu, and provided service that was both prompt and thoughtful. Highly recommend asking for her section!“

“The self-service hot pot was an amazing experience. There was a wide variety of fresh ingredients, including meats, seafood, vegetables, and noodles, all neatly displayed and easy to choose from. The soup bases were rich and flavorful, with options to suit different tastes, from mild to spicy. Everything was clean and well organized, making the dining process smooth and enjoyable. The sauces bar was especially impressive, allowing everyone to create their own perfect dipping sauce. Overall, it was great value for the price, and I would definitely come back again with friends and family.“

“I always come here after a long day of a work trip. Coming from a place where most hot pots are all you can eat. I was a little shocked by the prices, but once I received my order and saw the portion in the quality, I totally understood. Flavors are great and ingredients are fresh. You’re paying for a cleanliness and quality. Servers are kind and accommodating and check on you often. You don’t need to order a ton to leave here feeling very full and satisfied.“

“Best korean shabu in Fortlee“

“Chris was our waiter today. We came in with my wife’s 100 year old grandfather and 99 year old Grandmother on her birthday. They are from Shanghai. Chris immediately knew to bring kids waters, 2 hot waters for the grandparents and 2 regular waters for myself and my wife. Service was fast and accurate. The food soup base was perfect and the food was very fresh with great portions. The ice cream for grandma’s 99th birthday was a great touch. We look forward to coming back again.“

“tasty and great portions for ayce“

“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“

“I've been to a lot of hotpot restaurants in the city. BeiJin Hotpot is a very average hotpot place. It's good, but hotpot is always good. Nothing exceptional for the price. The meat was good, maybe if we ordered different types of meat we would've had a better experience. There's nothing wrong with our dinner; we were just a bit disappointed. All in all, for the price range there are better places to go to.“

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

“Great spot!Best aycy hot pot in lic“

“My first time trying coconut hot pot and I’ve clearly been missing out! The coconut broth was light and sweet, and way easier on the stomach than a regular hot pot.

We visited on one of the coldest days, and the restaurant was PACKED. It’s located in Downtown Flushing, literally right next to Tangram. It’s also more affordable than other coconut hot pot spots in the city, with a heartier portion too.

Shoutout to the impeccable service — our server even helped skim off the floating oil from the broth (and made me want to buy that ladle lol).

＊Coconut Chicken (for two) 皇椰雞套餐 $75.95
They use cage-free chicken, and the pieces were generously sized with not too much bone. This portion was already enough to feed four. The set also comes with vegetables, plus your choice of rice or noodles. The coconut broth wasn’t heavy at all that we were basically sipping it nonstop.

＊Poached Egg & Beef Clay Pot Rice 窩蛋牛肉煲仔飯 +$15
You get a discounted price if you add their claypot rice to your hot pot order. It looked very promising and delicious, especially with the runny poached egg. But I thought the rice needed a few more minutes in the clay pot to crisp up the base a bit more.

＊Maxi’s Noodle Wonton 雲吞妹雲吞 $9.95
The price is pretty steep for just three wontons, but I love Maxi’s so much that I still went for it. The shrimp wontons were so plump and meaty.

＊Handmade Battered Shrimp 極品鮮蝦滑 $12.95
SOOOO GOOD I am a fan of shrimp paste in a hot pot.“

“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“

“We celebrated my sons birthday there and service was outstanding, food and drinks were amazing. Would definitely come back. Thank you!“

“My absolute favorite place!“

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

“The malatang here is really good, and the service is great. There are a lot of options to choose from, so it’s easy to customize your bowl. They offer free froyo if you pay cash, and they also include a Yakult regardless of payment method, which is a nice touch. Definitely a place I’d recommend!“

“I'm really happy to have an AYCE hotpot place in the UWS! The staff here were all really friendly. There was a mix-up with a reservation issue, and the staff were very apologetic about the inconvenience, and happily accommodated us the next day. They're newly open, so we think there was just a sudden influx of new customers that they weren't expecting.

The food was delicious-- we got the spicy soup base and tomato soup base in a split pot. We only put in one order of all our ingredients, but the server reminded us that it's AYCE and that we shouldn't be shy about ordering more, which was really nice. They were much less busy on Sunday evening, so noise level was very good for conversation, and you don't feel like you need to rush for other customers to come in.

The selection of meats and veg is great, and the sauce bar has everything that I normally use for hotpot sauces!

We're definitely coming back with friends! Thank you Spice Lamb! :)“

“My girlfriend and I decided to try something new tonight, I’ve never had Hot Pot before and saw this place had 5 stars across the board so I obviously got curious and as soon as you walk in you see why. The customer service was amazing and that alone is why I would go back. I don’t remember her name but she was so helpfully showing us how things work, the menu etc. it definitely made us feel comfortable. And then on top of that the food is great, the broth is 🤤🤤🤤.
I’ll be turning!“

“Their food makes you appreciate good ingredients. The service people were excellent and everyone offered assistance! The taste profiles here are inventive. The drinks made an impression and the food complemented them well. Hou Yi Hot Pot should be your next dining destination.“

“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! 🍲🔥“

“Good Service and nice food 👍🏻“

“The best one“

“The place is great! One down side was the soup was a little lacking in flavor so I depended a lot on the sauce bar to make everything taste even better. Love the buffet concept of the noodles, veggies, and meats. Servers were very nice and kept everything clean. Definitely coming back!“

“Interesting place and fast service“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“The food here is so tasty, I love the grilled fish very much. The spiciness is just right and very delicious. I am a big fan of hot pot, and I can say that this is one of the best hot pot places I have ever had. If you try it you will know what I am talking about.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.“

“I was starving before I got here. My stomach was growling so loudly it could be heard in LA. My friends and I picked the diamond tier, half spicy miso and half house broth. Spicy miso wasn't thaaaat spicy but I liked the flavor a lot. The staff is attentive they bring you more food super quickly. I got a strawberry cocktail IT WAS SYRUP. no alcohol in it , or at least I didn't taste it. I had one sip and I thought j was drinking FABULOSO cleaning agent !!!!! Obviously don't wear clothes in here that you don't want a scent trailing after you . You will be craving meat all day. I liked the shoulder it was the least fatty. However I went to my doctor and they said I have a cholesterol issue so I can't come here often otherwise I might x__x“

“Great authentic food. Really enjoyed it.“

“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.“

“I treasure this restaurant like a gem. As a resident of Fort Lee, this place brings me so much happiness. As a regular customer, I was delighted to receive the tanghulu as a complimentary service. The ingredients are always fresh, delicious, and healthy. Thank you, and have a wonderful day! 😍“

“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! great selection of hotpot ingredients, and they literally have 小龙虾🦞 as their starters?? the service was INCREDIBLE TOOOO the aunties and a young man were so service-oriented -- placed our coats in a big plastic bag so that the hotpot smell would not get to it + overall super smiley :) THUMBS UP!!!“

“The perk about hot stix restaurant is they gave us 12% discount for a birthday party without minimum head counts as long as the birthday person can verify the birth date. The BBQ stix were so warm and savory. We had a wonderful birthday celebration at Hot Stix.“

“The atmosphere was great, perfect for hanging out with a few friends for some drinks in the evening. We ordered army stew and egg casserole, both of which were delicious. My favorite was their chicken feet; they were spicy but incredibly tasty.“

“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.“

“For just $30, you can try 100 flavorful skewers here! My favorite is the beef skewer, which is their signature dish. I really love their spicy and numbing flavor — it’s so aromatic and suits my taste perfectly. The restaurant stays open until 1 a.m., which is super convenient for late-night dining.“

“This hot pot restaurant is my absolute go-to! I love everything about it — the food is always fresh, the portions are great, and it’s super affordable. Whether I’m craving something comforting or just want a fun meal, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“This was my first experience dining at a Korean BBQ venue. There is plenty of variety between the buffet choices for the hot pot soup and the BBQ grill and the sides. I really enjoyed the hot pot soup I’m not a fan of cooking/grilling my food at a restaurant. Armando the server went above and beyond to explain and tend to us.“

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

“This place is an amazing experience if you really like shabu shabu and also appreciate well crafted experiences that aren't just about overloading you with meat/sauce.

The service is amazing, the people at the counter will cook the meat for you, regularly replace your bowls/dishes if they fill with broth, skim the fat out of your pot.

The meat is really high quality as well, I believe they source their wagyu straight from Japan and the quality is beyond what I can generally find in new york.

There are a lot of sauces and the restaurant puts a lot of care into serving interesting sauces & combinations. It seems they're always trying something new, when I went, they had just freshly prepared some nori sauce. The server will help you understand what sauce combinations work well, for which meats. I found that all their suggestions were amazing and really elevated the taste.

Their ice cream was made in-house, when I went, there was black sesame and earl grey. Both had an amazing crisp texture and soft sweetness.

Overall an amazingly unique meal with amazing service and just a beautiful, cozy spot.“
