    Beijing Hot Pot is a lovely restaurant for groups and gathering with friends. We arrived on a Saturday and managed to get a table before it started to get busy. Our group ordered the split pot for AYCE, and we got the mushroom broth and spicy broth. For the fillings, I ordered sliced lamb, sliced beef, noodles, dumplings and many quail eggs. For an AYCE restaurant, I was impressed with the quality and taste of the meat, noodles, and even the broth. It definitely is a step above other AYCE hot pot restaurants. Our server frequently stopped by to refill our pot and check-in, which is also a plus. I would highly recommend calling ahead or reserving a table through Yelp, as they get quite busy in the evenings.

    Right from the start the service here was very quick. We got our menus, chose what we wanted, and then within a minute food was appearing on our table. Strangely, they didn't offer to bring us glasses of water and we finally asked for it half way through the meal. However, they actually brought us everything we asked for where many other hotpot places usually forget about part of our order. The selection on the menu was pretty good but could have been better. Other places have a much wider variety of sauces available, but here we were limited to four choices. The meat was great quality, but again we would have liked more options. All the vegetables were fresh and very flavourful. We were pleasantly surprised to see the dessert menu. The fried buns were really good and there were a few great options for ice cream too.

    My husband and I have eaten here many times. It's our first choice for hot pot because it has the broth we like. The mushroom is good, the spicy is spicy, but yet has flavour, not just heat and I love the pork bone. The service is excellent , but you have to remember there is a time limit of 2 or less hours depending on the day. When it's busy reservations are lined up snd servers need to clean and reset everything., even if its not busy, you need to go, I appreciate the last call and reminder of the time. Another yelper did not. The servers are very polite and tactful. It's all on the menu. If you re not familiar with the restaurant type, just ask, the manager is very helpful. Also the service is different, if you want another beer or beverage, or some dishes removed. You need to move them to the side of the table or raise your hand. It's a little different. The variety of food is good, my husband loves the dumplings. I prefer the variety of tofu and bean curd. The veggies are good, everything is always fresh, seafood is on the menu and if you like the really expensive or exotic food, it's available for a small extra charge. They frequently refill the soup, it simmers away fast. The restaurant is very clean and if you look in the kitchen, it's the same. Clean and sanitary is a big thing for me. We've booked reservations on Yelp or called. The place can get pretty busy later on. So reservations are a good idea. So many young people eat here. If you want in and it's busy, you may have a long wait. Some one mentioned a problem with language. I've had none at all, Overall I would recommend this pls e and we will be returning. A great hot pot to try and become a regular

    Hidden in a small plaza across from Fairview mall, I've been here multiple times with my husband. As I love spicy hotpot and my husband loves lamb. Now, I for one do not like lamb as it can be too gamey for me. But the lamb here at Beijing is NOT gamey at all! So for me, I was able to enjoy as much lamb as my husband. The offer other cuts of beef and a variety of veggies, noodles, and other ingredients you would usually eat for hotpot. Soup base is extra cost, but my husband really enjoys the tomato base and I enjoy the spicy broth, so it's not a big deal for us. It is small inside and it's always busy so be sure to make resos!

    I seldom have hot pot or even AYCE option when I go out to eat. But my experience at Beijing Hot Pot Restaurant might change my mind. The restaurant itself is clean. I love how everything is so organized. The option of havine 1/2/3/4 different soup base in one pot is just genius! Our group of 3 were able to have our own favourite/individual soup base without sharing with others! I can go all the way and order my spicy mala soup while others can enjoy mushroom base or pork bone base! Win Win situation for all of us. The quality of meat is quite good for an AYCE. Other selection is good. I especially love the different kind of mushrooms that offers and even different kind of soy products too. This is one of those places I can go eat with a vegetarian and we can both enjoy our own personal hot pot. Service was excellent. All orders were delivered promptly which is really important as there is a 1.5 hour time limit. The experience can be a little rush but it works well if you are waiting for a table.

    Solid all you can eat hotpot! Good broths, good quality meat, and lots of options. It doesn't feel super upscale, but the food was decent so I don't mind! I've had better but I'd definitely still go back here!

    This place is bombbbb. The variety and quality of food as well as the service are the highlights of this place. I always prefer AYCE because you don't have to enforce what you're getting and worry about what you'll pay at the end. The variety of items on the menu was really great, and they give you the food in the perfect quantities so you're able to try out things you're curious about without having to commit to it/risk you wasting too much food if you aren't a fan. My favourite food items include the sliced beef (super fresh), taro noodles (so fun and easy to eat!!), tripe, and the knotted kelp. You have to pay $8.99 extra should you choose to order a flavoured broth that isn't just water-based. I decided to go with the pork bone. I'm not a hot pot expert and have not tried too many broths in the past... but my take on it (TIP:) is that if you aren't picky and are a new hot pot eater, the water based broth will def suffice. The taste of the broth changes pretty soon anyways since you're cooking food in it, so if you get water based broth it becomes pretty flavourful eventually - if you like spicy, ordering the spicy beef will transform your soup broth drastically. Others might say otherwise that the broth matters but this is just my take as an amateur hot potter. The service here is excellent!! The owner/manager is always on high alert and manages the business very well, from the beginning stages of communicating with you and keeping you up to date with wait times, to your meal when he spots you needing attention right away and tells one of the servers who will assist you within 3 seconds. The servers are always standing by and watching over the tables... super attentive. Unfortunately the restaurant space is pretty small, so at peak times there definitely will be a wait. The wait time for me was an hour yesterday, but since Fairview is close by I killed time there and time flew by. I told this to the manager beforehand, who gave me a call when he noticed the guests in our table close to leaving, to give us enough time to make it back right before our table was fully prepared. One other minor detail is that their plates are bit small for eating off of, and I had to ask for a ladle as they don't give it to you right off the bat, which I found a little weird for a hot pot place. Overall this place is great. I'm not sure if you can make reservations but if you can, the only barrier is the wait times. But I think it was worth the wait because the food was great and it was altogether a very positive dining experience for sure.

    Came as a larger group of 8, never knew there were restaurants tucked into this small plaza. The place is very busy, and understandably strict with the seating limit. An AYCE hot pot place, there is quite a selection of foods you can order. What I stood out to me were the large plates of nicely rolled slices of meat. The plates were generously stacked, which I appreciated seeing as we were a group of 8, so we didn't have to keep ordering. Also nice was the different mushrooms they offered. Quality was overall good, with some of the pre-prepared foods like assorted balls, seafood here and there. Service was great. The waiters had good English and were quite friendly.

    This is a traditional way to have a hotpot in Beijing. Not exactly copy and paste due to many reasonable factors close enough!!! The price is also reasonable. I have been to this place multiple times and introduced them to my friends. I can tell some people from the south of China may not accept this way to have hotpot~but it's good enough for me to fill my appetite.

    Overall since nothing is really cooked prior to your table you can only asses the freshness and quality of the ingredients, variety of the sauce, the broth and the service. Overall food was pretty good (especially the freshness of the lamb slices) but the service was simply terrible. First the food, as one of Mongolian decent lamb is a must for me on a regular basis. This place definitely hit the spot and would certainly deserving a 4 star, but service is barely 1 star. First thing, not sure if they just didn't like us because we ordered maybe more than their average customer but getting service was impossible. I was trying to way down a waiter for some water and napkins, right in front him and its like he has selective vision. The icing on the cake was when we were close to finish eating, the manager i guess came and talked to us and told us we have been eating for 2h (despite the 1.5h) limit and we need to leave soon. I was outright appalled by this as not only was there no one waiting for a table, there were numerous tables that were near us that have been there since we arrived.

    This was SO GOOD. I understand why it was so busy inside because these soup dumplings were amazing…read more We got them within 5 ish minutes of waiting, and they were so warm and juicy, and they gave us some soy sauce and hot sauce to add onto them, which just made them so much better in flavor. I devoured them in like 10 seconds. The ambiance is super casual like literally just 3 tables and the rest is standing space.

    we were picking up medication at the nearby pharmacy and decided to stop by at Juicy Dumpling since…read moreI haven't had Chinese dumplings and bun's in so long! It was so packed but my brother was able to save a table while I did the ordering. This was a very casual and self service type of restaurant in which you can order at the front desk or at their kiosk. They had a limited time "promotion" going on in which you can order a maximum of 2 orders of their xiaolongbao or steamed mini soup dumplings for $2.99 with a minimum spend of $10. But honestly, I've seen this promotion since last year so I'm thinking it's actually a permanent offer. We ordered two orders of their pan fried pork buns, 1 order of their pan fried chicken dumplings, and 2 order of their promotional steamed mini soup dumplings. I thought everything tasted pretty good. The pan fried buns and dumplings were very crispy and quite juicy. My only nitpick is that I wished they put some kind of veggies or chives in their filling. It was just meat and felt too 1 dimensional for me. The steamed mini soup dumplings was actually really good though which is such a surprise at this price point. The outer layer was very thin and the filling was packed with soup. It was very delicious and hearty. Are these the best Chinese dumplings and bun's I've ever had ? No, but they were great especially for the price point. I would definitely come back again next time I am craving Chinese dumplings and buns. Also they take Amex which is always a plus in my book.

    I've been craving Szechuan-style whole grilled fish for the longest time, so I was really happy…read morewhen I stumbled across this spot while walking on Spadina. The posters outside caught my eye, and I decided to come back with a group of three friends to try it out. We came a bit late around 8 PM, and most of the fish were already sold out except the original. We ended up ordering the Signature Spicy Grilled BBQ Fish ($40), a whole fish served bubbling hot with three toppings (potatoes, spam, and lotus root). You can choose between catfish and turbot, we chose the turbot fish. It looked extremely spicy, but the spice level was actually perfect. It was a bit on the oily side, but pairing it with rice balanced it out nicely. The fish was very tender and buttery, everything tasted amazing! We also ordered the Stir-Fried Egg with Tomato. The eggs were soft, the tomato sauce was rich. Not to mention the portion size was huge, we even had leftovers after eating until we were full. The restaurant itself was spacious, clean, and had plenty of seating. I think they were doing some sort of promotion so they gave us a $25 off coupon, though it expired pretty quickly so we didn't get to use it. I'd definitely come back for that grilled fish.

    This is a new Chinese restaurant featuring Hunan and Szechuan cuisine. The spicy dishes emphasize…read morespiciness, not numbness. A few of their dishes come out on a sizzling plate with flames underneath. They are still in soft-opening mode with several specials. You can see the menus via a QR code. The Hunan cuisine is listed as "Hunan Noodles" and the Szechuan cuisine is listed as "Chopfire Menu". The Szechuan dishes are listed with 1 to 3 chilies representing the spiciness. If you can't handle spicy, then avoid eating the chili pieces and you might "survive". The restaurant decided to minimize their food offerings so that they can focus on refining their dishes in terms of quality and taste, including from customer feedback. We ordered the following: 1. Signature Spicy Grilled BBQ Fish ($39.95). 2. Home Stir Fried Beef ($21.95). 3. Bullfrog with Baby Ginger ($19.95). 4. Stir-Fried Cauliflower with Preserved Pork ($15.95). 5. Drunk Oolong (charcoal roasted oolong tea base) x 2 ($5.95 x 2). 6. Lemon Taro Balls ($7.95). We also saw the following: 7. Stir-Fried Sliced Pork with Green Pepper Noodle Soup ($9.99). First 10 customers each day, only pays $1.00. 8. Ink Painting Cocktail ($5.95). The Signature Spicy Grilled BBQ Fish came out on a huge sizzling platter. The BBQ Fish, a Turbot Fish, was very fresh and flaky, easily coming off the bone. There is no head attached like at typical Chinese restaurants but it would not have fit in the platter. The platter had a delicious sauce (soupy consistency and not sweet), luncheon meat slices, lotus root slices, and two other vegetables, along with chili pieces. The entire dish tasted great together with the various flavours. The menu listed it as 2-chili spicy but I could handle it by avoiding the chili pieces. The Home Stir Fried Beef is tender. It is listed as 3-chili but I could handle it by avoiding the chili pieces. The Bullfrog with Baby Ginger has the bullfrog cut up in little pieces; no you don't see a whole frog! The meat was actually good but most pieces have bones in it, so it takes time to eat it carefully. There was ginger slices in it but it, but we thought the slices were quite large! The Stir-Fried Cauliflower with Preserved Pork was very delicious! It came in a sizzling plate. The Cauliflower was flavourful and was not crunchy and not too soft. I've never had preserved pork slices before; it was quite good, not as salty as Chinese preserved vegetables. The Drunk Oolong has comes in a small bowl a with gin and ice. On the side, they include pieces of the charcoal roasted oolong tea leaves so you can smell it; quite a good smell indeed. You can also order it without the gin, which is what I ordered for mine (since I don't drink alcohol). It was such a nice drink! The Lemon Taro Balls dessert was pretty. In the centre was a slice of lemon. The customer service was good. There is plenty of indoor table and counter seating, including a small private room at the back. There is also an outdoor patio during warmer weather. There is pop music playing in the background. There is no free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are two gender-neutral washrooms downstairs, so they are not wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-026

From the moment we walked in, the space already set the tone.. dark, dramatic, elegant, and beautifully designed without feeling overly stiff. It has that upscale energy that makes dinner feel like an occasion before you've even ordered anything. Food-wise, there was a lot to love. The signature apple wood roasted Peking duck was definitely a highlight, especially with the tableside carving, which made the whole experience feel even more polished and memorable. The skin had that beautiful lacquered finish, and the duck was rich, flavorful, and very satisfying. We also ordered a few larger dishes for the table, and I really appreciated how everything still felt refined without losing that comforting, indulgent side of Chinese dining. Some dishes leaned rich and luxurious, others were lighter and more aromatic, so the meal never felt repetitive. Service was another standout. Attentive without hovering, smooth without being too formal.. exactly the kind of service you hope for in a restaurant like this. Overall, Mott 32 is absolutely the kind of place I'd come back to for a special dinner, celebration, or just one of those nights when you want the meal to feel a little more elevated than usual.

Also, when we call to check if dim sum is being served, it makes sense to inform us of the dining room closure instead of having us come in anyway. We settled for eating in the lounge which ended up being good because bartender, Aiki?, was excellent as our server. Really great. Ordered the following: King prawn Har gow: standard. Not worth the premium Mott charges. Miso black cod dumpling: not good. Wouldn't order again Shredded Peking Duck Spring Roll, Sliced Vegetable : Excellent. We loved this! Nice and crunchy. Delicious duck inside. Good vinegar dipping sauce. Good volume Hot & Sour Iberico Pork Shanghainese Soup Dumplings: Fantastic and unique. The dumplings don't really need dipping sauce since inside there is a hot and sour soup along with pork. These are unique and delicious. Fried Wagyu beef taro croquette : pretty good but really tasted like a Jamaican patty Cold noodle with shredded duck : very generous with meat. Honestly a lot more than any other restaurant that serves this. To be fair no one charges this much either so it should. Flavour could be stronger but certainly decent. Fresh Mango, Coconut, Glutinous Rice Roll: nice fresh dessert. Our favourite. Frozen xiao long bao with chocolate and nut: Tastes like a mochi. Not bad. Dragonball Zen - fun name. Delicious drink. Jasmine Dragon Ball Infused Tanqueray Gin / Peach Liquor Lime / Rose Water / Mint / Seltzer Over $200 for this meal before tip. It's premium an debatable if with it. Will be back but just occasionally.
