Hot Pot Restaurants near North York, ON

“This hotpot restaurant serves authentic old Beijing-style mutton hotpot. I highly recommend trying the clear broth base—it really brings out the meat’s natural flavor. The sesame sauce is also very authentic, and the pickled garlic adds a sweet-and-sour touch that perfectly cuts through the richness.“

“This Chinese restaurant is absolutely amazing! The food was beyond delicious — every dish was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The place was also very clean and well-kept, and I really appreciated that there was no strong smell of bleach or cleaning products in the air. Everything felt fresh, welcoming, and enjoyable. Highly recommend!“

“Food 4/5
Service 4/5
Vibe 4/5

New restaurant located near Victoria Park and Mcnioll. They specialize in Hunan湖南 or hubei湖北 food.

Summarize: most dishes are spicy and use more fatty meat. But flavor is great, definitely ate more rice than expected 😂

They currently have a grand opening special! 12% off!“

“It’s a great experience. I enjoyed the ambiance as well as the food and service at this restaurant. The staff（Sunny and Sammantha） are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations. I love this place and will continue to visit.“

“I really liked these short ribs, kept ordering them over and over. I also like the atmosphere/environment and service/staff, and above all I liked that they offer the option for tables with individual pots instead of a shared pot, I think this place overall is the best hot pot place (I prefer it over bottom-sea-catch)“

“It was a very delicious experience! My friends and I had a really great time there. All the food was really good. I especially liked the opportunity to mix and match some sauces myself. I would recommend it to others, I will most likely come back sometime.“

“Food is good... and good customer service friendly staff“

“Had an amazing dining experience at Liu Yishou Hotpot! The restaurant is clean and comfortable, the ingredients are fresh, and the broth is rich and flavorful. Special thanks to Sasha and Wency for their attentive and friendly service — they really made our meal even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!“

“We went here on Wednesday for lunch special event! Premium set all you can eat for two people! And the food quality is the best in GTA not gonna lie! Becuz it’s lunch time, no much customers so they served the food so fast! Definitely recommend to try!

I’m giving this five stars because we are here for lunch special event and it is so good for today’s service and food quality!“

“great BBQ and hotpot, must try“

“Food is halal we loved food .“

“This place is definitely a go-to spot for hanging out with friends — we’ve been coming here several times already! It’s always buzzing and lively, which is part of the charm, but be prepared for a wait. Usually, it’s around 15–20 minutes, though our group of seven once had to wait 45 minutes due to how busy it was. The space is a bit tight for the number of customers, but the atmosphere and vibe make it worth it.“

“Went tonight for dinner.and never had any experience with hot pot. Servers were excellent and helpful, food was very.good and we had a great time. Is bit on pricey side and they automatically add a.tip; as an FYI.“

“This is my 3rd time dining in this beef hotpot restaurant. I also take my friends and colleagues here, and they all like the food. The beef is extremely fresh and the price is quite reasonable. I recommend the rib eye/sirloin and chunk slices. Their beef fried rice is always mouth-watering. 2-3 people is the ideal group size for this restaurant. I highly recommend it.“

“First time we eat here. Great tasty hot pot soup base and great portion of healthy options. Really cute robot service. 4 of us only could finished our 1st round! 😍👍👍“

“I came here for the second time with my partner during the dinner rush. Completely blew our expectations away!

We remember our first time eating here, with the food being decent but nothing crazy and the service was okay. However upon our second time visiting, our server, Bill Xu, was not only kind but went above and beyond to show us genuine hospitality. He was extremely patient with any questions we had and checked in with us often.

The food was delicious with the marbled beef being my favorite item that night. There are a variety of items you can choose from with the selection being quite large. Both sweet and savoury items were quite tasty so you can't really go wrong.

Lastly, I take the cleanliness of washrooms very seriously. I have to say that I was very impressed upon walking into the washroom. Not only was the design of the washroom itself modern and elegant, but it was very apparent that the staff does check their washrooms. It was pretty clean and there were several free amenities offered (toothpicks, floss, mouthwash). Overall, I was speechless to discover a really good washroom experience in a city full of awful and disgusting washrooms.

While the bill can be expensive by the end, the service and quality of the food was top-notch. Overall, this was a great experience and we will definitely be coming again.“

“Came here for dumplings and malatang soup, and they did not disappoint. They've changed the name and the sign, so it was a bit confusing heading in. The dumplings were decent, and I had a large selection of veggies to choose from for the soup. There is of course every other item you'd want to put into a hotspot, but I was happy with my vegetarian selection. I would definitely come back.

Vegetarian options: Large selection of veggies, tofu-based items, and soybean-based items.“

“It's an interesting experience with the conveyor belt system, where you can get most of the staples like veggies, fish balls, some seafood, mushrooms, etc. Unfortunately, nothing is labelled, so unless you know what you're looking at or are brave enough to try something new, some of the dishes circling around will remain mysteries. The meat was brought directly to your table by staff, and they were attentive enough for us to ask for more several times, and for them to refill our broth. I did like how each person had an individual soup, though it did mean each person had to pay $5-$8 dollars more. Overall, it was something new and fun to try once, but if you took away the conveyor belt, it'd be at best considered average for the price.

Vegetarian options: Has some veggie options, not as much as some other hotpot restaurants.

Parking: Don't bother trying to find parking above ground when it's busy, go into the underground, you'll find a spot much faster.“

“Good service & excellent food.“

“nice food and services highly recommend“

“This place has to be the most marvellous hot pot place I’ve been to. Ranging from their mouth watering beef to their dessert that melts in your mouth. This place is truly astonishing and in my opinion a once in a lifetime experience. Not only were their food awesome but their staff were equally kind, patient and professional.“

“A very old catonese hot pot with very traditional decor. The side dishes are very good, fried tofu ,pepper, chicken wings, pot rices ,sticky rices. Hot pot meats are average, squid ball, beef balls, veggies are good. Different kinds of dessert and free plum drinks and lemom tea. $29.99+3.00 weekend , + $18.00 soup base. end up $50 pp, still worth it , good thing is no time limited .“

“Beautiful place with large hot pot selections, friendly staffs, very clean and they even have basket for your coats/clothes/purses plus aprons to use during your meals!“

“I’m a foodie who loves finding great spots, and eating alone at Haru Shabu Shabu was so much fun! The staff was really kind and helped me pick the tastiest dishes. The food was fresh and super yummy, and the place felt warm and cozy. It’s one of my favorite restaurants, and I can’t wait to come back! You should totally try it!“

“Amazing service by Dohnan (I hope i spelled right), and the food was very large portion and extremely flavorful!

Pad see ew and pad kra pow (upgrade to coconut rice) were amazing and the mango sticky rice to finish the meal is perfect!“

“Arrived slightly before 12PM with my girlfriend and managed to get our names first on the waitlist. Promptly after, it started getting packed with tons of people signing up for the waitlist. Was very surprised to see how busy it was on a Wednesday afternoon at opening.

We both went for the $26.99 AYCE lunch special. Soup bases are included in the price and you can choose up to 2 different bases. Items to choose from were a bit limited from a protein perspective, but we were more than happy to inhale beef brisket slices and seafood. Veggies and sides were great too. Ice cream cone at the end was great and the perfect way to end the meal. Wasn’t the biggest fan of the Hokkaido pudding.

Service was exceptional. Staff members were very attentive, consistently topping up our soup pots, pouring water for us, and getting our food orders. Seating time is limited to 1 hour and 45 minutes. Ample time in my opinion.

Overall, we really enjoyed our time at Daimaru. I highly recommend it, especially for their lunch special. We both ate for just under $60 including a tip!“

“Absolutely fantastic! Authentic Korean flavors, fresh ingredients, and perfectly balanced spices. The staff was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy yet vibrant. Every dish—from the sizzling bulgogi to the kimchi—was a delight. Will definitely be coming back!“

“The taste is pretty good, the portions are huge, and the prices are very reasonable.
It's a pity that I didn't get the roast chicken, but I got the pepper and sesame chicken, which has a very special taste.
I highly recommend the sauerkraut pot. The more you cook it, the better it tastes. The meatballs inside are super fragrant.

Parking: Right at the door“

“Great hidden AYCE hotpot place.

Tons of options at reasonable prices. Crab and lobster aren't fresh, but you're boiling them anyways.

Like how they include a free drink with your meal

Tomato and pork bone soup bases were our default choices and worked out great with the meats available“

“In the summer, I like to barbecue, but I am lazy. The food before delivery is really convenient, and each food is divided, and it is also vacuum-packed, so I no longer worry about trouble and waste. The most important thing is that my friends think it tastes good. Now I want to barbecue Just buy the barbecue meat from the former food directly!“

“很好吃😋服務員人也很好👌“

“Super tasty Hunan food! The flavors were bold and spicy — just the way I like it. I loved the steamed fish head with chopped chili and the spicy chicken. Everything felt authentic and freshly made. Staff were friendly and helped us pick the right level of heat. Definitely coming back!“

“amazing and fresh..so yummy!“

“I really don't regret it. Of all the Korean restaurants I've been to, the food service and visuals were all the best!! I was impressed after taking a bite. I think I will have a fun trip thanks to Deokman :) May you prosper~!!

I especially recommend squid fried rice to those who like spicy food.!!“

“I recently dined at this amazing hot pot restaurant and had a fantastic experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for gathering with friends. The broth was rich and flavorful, offering both spicy and mild options. The ingredients were fresh, especially the thinly sliced beef and crisp vegetables. I loved the variety of dipping sauces that added so much taste to every bite. The service was attentive and friendly, making sure our table always had everything we needed. Overall, it was a delicious and memorable meal. I highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys authentic hot pot.“

“Failsafe malatang place that I keep going back every time I try new malatang places. MalaTown is a small business and their broth and sauce warms your heart and soul. It hits the spot every time.

You select the ingredients you want and you can customize the spice level, the numbness level, add/remove green onion, garlic and/or cilantro.

If your total order is over $25, you get a free drink and there is a wide variety of drinks!“

“Went there for dinner over the weekend. It's a large restaurant and easy to get a table. The restaurant bills itself as a hot pot restaurant and that is what the four of us had. The hotpot ingredients were good. Not spectacular. In hindsight, a different soup base would have been better tasting. We had the kitchen stir fry the lobster for an extra cost and it was very well done, as was the clay pot rice dish that came with the set dinner. Also with the dinner was a plate of chicken wings and french fries which was very tasty with whole dried peppers in a Szechuan style stir fry style. All of us thought that the kitchen cooked food was very good and better than the hot pot. The exception may be the deep fried milk which was ok and was served too soon as we were still munching through our food. The raw eggs that several of us ordered too a bit long to arrive at the table. Other than that, the service was quite good. We all said that next time we go back, that we will only get the items from the kitchen as it was quite well done.“

“My brother's friend told him about this restaurant, so we decided to give it a try today. The congee and rice noodle rolls tasted fresh and delicious! The only downfall was that servers were inattentive to when I wanted to place my order.“

“It was my first time trying Malatang by my friends recommendation! We came here and we enjoyed it sooo much!! The food was spicy and delicious and I loved that we were able to choose our toppings and what goes in and we got to choose our spice levels. You pay by the weight of how much you got and surprisingly, it didn't come out as much as I expected it to considering I got like everything out of curiosity lol. I'll definitely come by again if I'm in the area

its a great restaurant to go to when it's a cold, winter day and you need a nice hot, spicy bowl of noodles“

“I will be very fair about my experience. We went there at 8:30pm. There were only 3 table of customers which included us. We ate til 10:30pm. Here is why.

The first order came fairly quick, but the 2nd order took a lot longer. We learnt our lesson so we immediately made 3rd order but still took a long time. That’s why we ate for 2 hours. I actually got hungrier waiting for the 2nd.

I would recommend you make large order on your first, but then again you are running the risk of your food getting cold but trust me, your 2nd order will come a lot later. You will have to push the waitress for it or your 2nd order will take forever to come.
3 table 1 waitress and the kitchen is having a hard time to keep up. If you decided to go and see 3+ table of customers, then you better make large order on your first.

Now serving speed aside, their food is great. But some food item on the menu is out of stock which is a bit disappointing.

I wanted to give 3 star but all you can eat skewer is pretty rare and besides I did ate over 60 skewers myself and wasn’t kicked out.

Here are some of the things, expect certain orders end up not coming.

They have a rule, they’d start charging over 100g worth of food not eaten. So before you make your order, ask the waitress if all orders came. That way you can keep track of your orders. (Some order end up not coming then you can reorder it or skip it)

It’s been 2 hours since I left and no stomach ache so the foods are fine.

It is $29.99 all you can eat starting 8:30pm which is reasonable. I would rate it 3.7 which is fairly close to the average rating.

I would definitely revisit the place some time in the future, since the serving speed, lost order and lack of supply can all be fixed by making huge order on the first one.

But remember don’t waste food even though it is all you can eat, that’s just courtesy and respect for foods.“
