Food was okay! Worth visiting. Honestly I think the AYCE was just standard, but it’s enough for me to come back next time. They had a friendly and attentive server. I think my bill was around 30$-35$ plus sauce bar.
Egg fried rice was good! Everything tasted nice. No ‘rounds’ or maximum amount for ordering something. They had a variety selection for the soup fillings.

Good hot pot. Ordering process a little confusing for first timer. But once you learn, you know. Chairs uncomfortable because they don’t want you to stay too long for then AYCE.

I must say that I am very thankful that the management of this business has stepped up and cleaned their parking lot. It is a 100% improvement. Keep it up! Much appreciated!
Parking: Deplorable eyesore, sad for all neighboring community.

So far, I can't even park close to here to even give it a try. Attempted for a third time, and all parking spots are taken, yet restaurant looks close to empty. At nearly 7pm at night in October, this is not a safe place to walk around so close to Aurora/130th with a child with it's recent activity. I want to support this business, the other reviews seem great! But felt this is an important factor for those to know.
The food is fantastic. I beg to please upkeep the bathrooms with proper care ?. Other than that i loved the experience.

I loved this place for our first hotpot experience. Service was great! Our water cups were never empty. Food was vibrant and fresh. We left stuffed. I liked the sauce bar as well. The reason why one star was left off was for the cleanliness in the restrooms. My husband said the men’s restroom needed to be cleaned and mopped. He said it was like a gas station restroom.The women’s restroom was in severe need of dusting the cobwebs and Spider webs and there was 2 large spiders just hanging around on the wall. It was creepy.

We paid $28.99/person for the food, $4 for sauce bar. The broths are $13/pot unless you get the standard bone broth (which is free).
The selection is a bit lacking for hotpot, especially on the veggies side. The meat was good and fresh. Service was also fine.
The establishment could be a lot cleaner. The floors are a bit slippery with oil.
I would come again, but I do think that at this price, I might consider other places.

Our go-to place for hot pot in Seattle! You never need a reservation, and they have a great selection of items, especially for an AYCE!

The food was what I expected at an all you can eat hot pot place. The broth was good and the side bar with the sauces and garnishes were good too. The beef ribeye was surprisingly lean and tasted great. Got the bone broth and spicy broth combo. Sometimes we would order something but it wouldn’t come out - assuming it was out of stock. The online QR code ordering was confusing but the server was very nice and attentive.

Excellent food, service, professionalism. For newcomers, there's no instructions. Tip: sign in for wait-list and use phone QR for menu. Pricing is straightforward, no hidden fees. Men's restroom was pretty dirty. Add $4 to each person for the sauce bar.

Best sauce bar and bone broth in town!!
The all you can eat is plenty of food for two. I still don't understand the no leftover policy if you didn't order anything but the basic. Staff was friendly and hard working.

$38 for all you can eat, food and soup was okay not really one of the better ones I've been to but that's okay. Expect to pay $4 extra for sauce bar (a lil strange tbh) and +$10 extra for additional soup base even with all you can eat. Never received any additional items I added even when it's all you can eat. Kind of defeats the purpose of it but oh well. A lil pricey for me but it was good. Overall left satisfied but won't be got back.
