I came here on a weekday during lunch and had an amazing time. Service was super quick and ordering was a breeze, you just check off what you want like a normal AYCE place. The food was fresh but the sauce was a little lacking in terms of variety. I think one of the main draws of this place for me is the value, not only do you get a huge variety of AYCE hot pot selection, but there is also a huge variety of drinks and even ice cream! I personally thought the ice cream was phenomenal and would go back again for sure.

Me and my partner and friends come here a lot if we are looking for acyce. They have a decent selection for soups and for the meat and seafood. For Chinatown area this is one of my top two hot pot places to go. The other ones I lao Jie. I would recommend both those hot pot places for bang for your buck. This place service is good. It's dark inside but who cares. You have all you can eat, drink (non alcoholic) and ice cream. Plus side I don't get a stomach ache here. So we come back here very often. I have a sensitive stomach if anything is not cooked well or is not clean I have stomach issues. But I don't have that problem here.

Great spot for ayce hot pot! The place is not a looker, but for the value the food was great. A big plus that nonalcoholic drinks were included! We got two different types of broth, spicy and pork; the spicy brother was mild and was my favorite. Service was great and fast. I will definitely return!

Why was this one of the best hot pots I've had in the US. For some reason, I was able to call ahead of time and make a reservation on Lunar New Year Eve which was pretty incredible. We got seated immediately when we came and just FYI, the clock starts ticking the reservation begins so if you arrive at 6:15 but your reservation time is 6, 15 minutes has already gone by. Here's my favorite things about the place: - There are so many side items that were included in the price including all of these different Asian beverages and so many different flavors of ice cream. I couldn't believe you could get as many grass jelly drinks AND 王老吉 as you wanted which I definitely capitalized on. Not sure if that's the best of use of stomach space, but oh well. The free ice cream also included wafers and you can just take it to go. Honestly, it was incredible. - The hot pot itself had so many ingredient options. I think there was 5+ leafy vegetables which was already very notable as I feel like in most places, they only have napa cabbage and that's about it. I love that they also had daikon which is such an underrated hot pot ingredient. - The meat cuts here were also amazing. All the meat was incredibly tender, especially the lamb, and dipping it into the sauce you can make by yourself is just wow. - The service was incredibly quick. You order and within 5 minutes they have all the food brought to your table. I literally cannot rave about this place enough and I will definitely come back for more hot pot in the future. You will definitely feel extremely full after coming here and it's fun to come with more friends so you can try out all their different things they have to offer. Ugh, I'm already dreaming about this place.
