Good hotpot restaurant. A new style where they first serve the disk (chicken/beef/frog or combination pot), then the broth is poured into the pot for your to dip the hotpot dishes.
We had chicken and frog pot, following by the regular hotpot dishes with multiple meat and vegetables. It was not spicy, not too salty.
Friendly staffs. The seats are small, with limited spacings. Also, it will be hard to find parking there. Either you need to come early to be able to park in front of the store, or find a spot innthe parking area nearby.
Overall, a must try.
Vegetarian options: Tofu with cegan broth, bur remember to confirm the content before ordering.
Parking: Parking in front of the restaurant (very limited), or newrby 2 story parking zone.

First time trying hotpot in Chongqing style. I chose the chicken and frog hotpot. Initially, the main dish of chicken and frog is stir-fried with a spicy sauce (you can choose the level of spiciness). Then, the staff will pour in the broth so you can continue to dip noodles and vegetables into the hotpot. I was quite impressed with this way of eating. The food was fresh, the spicy flavor was rich and intense, the space was clean, and the staff were enthusiastic.

Chongqing Chicken Pot is hands down my favorite restaurant. I’ve been here on 5 separate occasions and the quality has never cease to disappoint me. How it works: we start off with ordering a pot of chicken and hotpot add-ins. While we wait for our food, we make our hotpot dipping sauce. When we are about done eating the chicken, the lovely ladies come by and pour the hotpot soup base. From there it becomes hotpot and we add in our beef, bean curd, veggies, ect. It is some of the most flavorful chicken I have tried. I will say, there are bones, but they make the dish all the more flavorful. I also cannot forget the staff, the ladies working there are always so helpful and kind. 10 out of 10 service. I recommend getting the coconut milk or the lemon tea! Our favorite hotpot add-ins are enoki mushrooms, bean curd, beef, and rice cakes.
It’s one of my favorite restaurants in Houston Chinatown. Always order the Chicken Clay Pot, and it always tastes so good!

I enjoy the concept of this restaurant: you eat your meal of meat/seafood stew and then they add water and you can add your sides of additional meats and vegetables to create a hot pot.I shared my shrimp dish (medium) with two others. I think the medium size can be shared between three only if you order at least 4-5 sides later for the hot pot. The shrimp dish had at least 12 large shrimps which wasn't bad. I wish the shrimp was already peeled because it was difficult to peel since it was scorching hot.Our friends ordered the beef brisket which was delicious and easy to eat (no bone or peeling necessary) so I'd recommend that if you come. I thought all the dishes would be comparable but differ in the meat we ordered but our shrimp dish seemed to lack potato and we wish that it had been present to balance the other intense flavors of the dish (onion, ginger, bell peppers, shrimp).As for the sides, the dumplings (6) did not have much filling, they weren't worth it. I really enjoyed the chiba tofu, the enoki mushroom, blood curds. We also got glass noodles, potato, corn on the cob, and Chinese cabbage which weren't remarkable.Also to note, despite reiterating that we wanted our dishes to be mild, both of our stews ended up being medium spice level unfortunately.Overall, I really enjoyed the quality of the ingredients and the natural flavors of the dish and hot pot!Side note: adding rice is an additional $1 per bowl which I wasn't a fan of.Service was alright- hot pot is labor intensive and the workers had to heat up / turn off the burner and pour water into the stew to turn it into hot pot for each table so I can understand why the staff was busy and may not have been as attentive as we'd like. While we had to call the waiters several times, either to refill the water in the hot pot, to give us napkins, or to give us the bill, they eventually got it done with a great attitude.Overall, it's a decent place for hot pot! It's not the cheapest nor the most expensive place ever but the ingredients were great quality and the dishes were very delicious!
