I had a blast dining here! It was my first time trying skewer hot pot and I would totally come back. The place fills up so we came at opening to avoid the wait.
You order the broth base with the server and grab what you want to put into your hot pot from the fridge. A note on the spiciness level, the mild here is quite spicy. It feels like the equivalent of hot or very hot in most other places. You can get veggies, meats and other food to add to your hot pot from the fridge. The prices are based on the color of the containers. Skewers are in the fridge too and they're $0.50 each. Some skewers have 2 sticks so that's $1.00 each.
You can also order more meat and other food options from the server or through the app but we didn't find it necessary for the most part. We did order the rice cake dessert which was wonderful.
I think it's so cool how they calculate the number of skewers for the bill. They take a pic and software counts it instead of a human, makes sense!
I highly recommend coming here, and with a big group so you can try more variety!
Kinda on pricy side 🤑. Side dishes are good. Push all the dishes in the fridge cabinet towards front. Highly suggest add option to less salty & oil soup base. Worth to try out. Hope my next visit is better and i could update review.
It was my first time trying this type of hot pot, and I was pretty excited. I love hot pot so adding a different type of experience is great.
Since we had never been here, when we were seated the host told us how everything works. The concept is pretty simple, you go to the refrigerated area and grab all the skewers and trays that you like to eat, then bring it back to your table and start cooking. Each stick costs $0.50, and some items have two sticks in them. It was mostly the meat items that had two sticks.
There are also other items on trays such as noodles, innards, mushrooms, vegetables, and other items. You definitely need to pay attention to the color of the tray, as there are different price points when it comes to the trays.
They also have a sauce bar and other appetizer type items available. I think my favorite item on the appetizer bar were their seasoned peanuts.
Overall, I think this is a great concept and the cost is not too bad. I honestly think if you stick to getting only sticks and not a ton of items on trays your price point will definitely not be too bad. You are also able to order some things through that app.
Service is okay, I wasn't too sure on who you could ask for refills of water. Most of the experience is do it yourself so you don't really need anyone to help you.
I absolutely love this hot pot place! They have a great selection of authentic, high quality, hotpot items (including some of my favorites like duck blood and chewy noodles). I like how these items are self-serve so you don’t have to wait. I especially love their complimentary appetizer bar. They have high-quality unique appetizers there, including chicken feet and clams. And of course the salted peanuts are great 🙃 This is my favorite hot pot in the bay
Also parking lot big so hasn’t been that hard to find parking.
This is a Chinese hotpot place. There is one pot per table of 4 to 6. The pot is divided into 2 halves so you could have 2 different types of soup. Everything is mostly self-serviced. You go to the sauce bar to mix your sauce. There are also appetizers and some desserts there, all included. For meat and other food you have to go to the fridge to pick whatever you want. The meat are pre-seasoned and put on skewer sticks and is $0.50 per skewer stick. Some have 2 skewer sticks and that means they are $1 each. Other kind of foods are put on colored dishes. Each color for a different price, ranging from $3.95 to $22.95. At the end of the meal they would count the number of skewer sticks and the colored dishes. Overall the food is good especially the meat as they are pre-seasoned, but we feel the price is just too high.
