Very consistent with any other boiling point. Very good soup and full of a variety of ingredients in the pot. This location is very tiny so seating was challenging and crowded
BOILING POINT @ BELLEVUE WAY Parking is available in their own private lot, however the spot is located in a plaza, so it's shared between other restaurants and places as well. It does get pretty crowded, but you'll still be able to find a spot. My friend and I came here around 5:30 PM and the place itself is very small. There's probably about 10 tables total, so it's definitely a tight space, but luckily a table opened up right as we walked in. They do have a waitlist, except we were seated right away. We got some waters, which was nice, and wanted to try their fruit teas, so I got a lychee green tea and my friend got their passionfruit green tea. Both were honestly horrible. They tasted like run-down sink water mixed with whatever syrup they use. It was really awful. I thought maybe it was a sugar-level issue, so we politely asked if they could readjust it, but it came back tasting the exact same. I'm very thankful the service was super nice and they removed it from our bill, but I would not recommend any of their fruit drinks at all. For the hot pot, though, it was a completely different story. We ended up getting the rose milky and I got a beef soup, and both were a 10 out of 10. Amazing flavor, great quality, and so much meat, it was incredible. Each hot pot also sits over a small fire, so your food stays hot the entire time, and the staff can turn it off or on whenever you need, which I really loved. The meal also comes with your choice of rice or vermicelli, which is a clear noodle. Overall, the experience was really great. I would definitely come back to Boiling Point. The food was delicious and the service was so nice!
Boiling Point is a great option for a cloudy Seattle day. They recently renovated and changed their online waitlist system, you can now sign up for it through a QR code when you walk in. I would definitely say the parking can be limited and not as good as other locations but I love the consistency on flavor for the Bellevue location specifically. It's not super big so keep that in mind if you're coming with big parties. It's a concept where each person can get their own personalized hot pot with live fire underneath. You can always ask for more fire or more soup to make your experience even better. Staff: Okay (3.5/5) Sanitation status: Clean (4/5) Milk Cream Curry (4.5/5) I love this combination. The curry broth in here is amazing. I usually get medium for my spice level. The bowl comes with vermicelli noodles, fish balls, corn, cabbage, imitation crab, string beans, pork, bean curd and many more things. I always opt for this flavor as I feel like I can't find something comprable anywhere else so far especially for individual hot pot places.
Boiling point is my favorite go to/taiwanese hot pot restaurant! They did increased price over time and now is $20 bucks, i will still go back go it whenever i am craving hotpot. My all time favorite is milky curry flavor. So rich in flavor and I always get to save half so it ends up being 2 meals for me! Definitely go check it out!
Came in on a Tuesday night and had to wait max 5 mins for a table. Haven't been in a while and they changed up some of the waitlist/app features. Usually I opt for the beef but tried the Thai hot soup and it was good! Definitely on the sour side so if that's not your cup of tea, I'd try another flavor pot. There was a variety of seafood and had pork and veggies. My preference is definitely rice over noodles. I liked the remodel and will definitely come again since they are one of the few restaurants open a little later in the area. Thanks!
Grumpy server (ponytail, bit chubby -- sorry just trying to describe her) 11/04 around 2 pm. She took our order and paid to her. I asked for lime in the end and didn't say anything and just sighed. Is she ok? Seems like she's not happy with her job and she's such a downer. The lady beside me was also upset because they gave her wrong broth. That server also dgaf.
Tried this spot on a Saturday at like 1 and was like a 20 minute wait, they had a text feature on the phone which made it easy for us to go over to uwajimaya right next door and shop around for a bit while waiting. Service was nice and friendly, only thing weird was that we tried to order the lemon iced tea which was on the menu but we tried to order with the server they were like we don't have that and we kept pointing to the menu. In the end we just got a green tea but that was weird. The bowls come with teas and I upgraded mine to the lychee but I think the lychee actually tastes worse than the normal green tea, it was a bit like gritty and not very flavorful. The Korean bean paste soup was alright but too me wasn't very flavorful and I would order a different flavor next time. Overall I like the place but I think I just ordered wrong things today as I liked my friends dishes and drinks more.
The food is delicious here. I've had most the dishes except for the mutton and the spicy ones (mostly because I'm a wimp). The service was prompt. Be ready to wait because there aren't that many seats. If you love soup/ broths. You'll love this place.
I've gone twice and food was good. May be worth going if you're in the mood for a quick hot pot meal. Both times, they forgot to get us our rice/vermicelli noodles until late into the meal, though. During Saturday dinnertime, wait time was approximately 1 hour.
I love Boiling Point. It is one of my favorite places to visit, whether I'm going alone or with a group of friends. Boiling Point has been celebrating its 20th anniversary, and throughout September, they've been offering a BOGO deal on their hot soups and drinks! With this deal, if you buy a hot soup and drink during the specified weekend and location, you receive a free voucher for both a hot soup and drink to use from October 2024 to October 2025. My sister and I were on a mission to be among the first to be seated when Boiling Point opened at 11AM on Sunday morning. The Bellevue and Redmond locations were offering the BOGO deal from 9/13 to 9/15, so we made sure to arrive by 10:30AM. People didn't start lining up until 10:45AM, and we were the second group in line. This was our first visit to the Bellevue location, and I was impressed with the overall experience. The parking lot is a bit awkward and small, as it's shared with several other businesses. Despite what I'm sure was a busy weekend due to the BOGO promotion, the staff were friendly and professional. My sister ordered the Thai Tomato Hot Soup with a Taro Milk Green Tea Slush, while I had the Beef Hot Soup and Winter Melon Juice. Our drinks were okay, though not what we typically get at Boiling Point. The taro drink was quite milky and not very sweet, and the winter melon juice was also on the less sweet side, but I didn't mind too much. Our soups were great, and we didn't even need to ask anyone to put out our fire; it was just the right amount for it to extinguish on its own.
I got the lamb hot pot, which came with all toppings and included a choice of iced tea (Green Tea or Wintermelon Tea) as it was lunch. The servers were quick and friendly, taking orders promptly and serving food within 30 minutes. The interior is medium leaning towards the smaller side, but it adds to a cozier atmosphere. Tables are set up to accommodate 2 to 4 people, with wait ranging from 30 minutes to an hour. Generally, if you show up before the rush, you'll be fine! Delicious single serve Taiwanese Hot Pot here and an amazing lunch spot (~20 per person)!
We came here after running on a Saturday morning and wanted something hot after a cold day. We came right at opening (11am) and got a table instantly. During lunch, there's a special where you can get a drink complementary to your meal. We got the green tea which was very good and the winter melon which was overly sweet; both iced. The staff is mindful of getting people out the door quickly and turn over tables efficiently so we ordered fairly quickly, but didn't feel rushed. We got beef soup and two milk cream curry soups. I think we all ordered too spicy because we got 2/5 and were sweating. They were all delicious and super hot when they came out. The staff were attentive and kept asking whether we needed anything, got us water, added broth to our soup and put out our fire out when it started boiling too much .The food came out quickly and by the time we were leaving, there was a huge line. I think the queue was around eight parties of people (1pm on Saturday). I do not think they take reservations so I would come here an hour before you want to eat and be prepared to walk around the mall as you wait. It is convenient because the mall is only five minutes away by walking.
I order take out from here all the time. My personal favorites are the beef hot pot or the Korean hot pot. The broth is so flavorful and they add lots of vegetables and tofu and fish balls etc. I also like ordering them extra hot! The staff are always very friendly and quick to prepare my take out order so that it's ready by the time I pick it up. Just thinking of the food always makes me hungry! They don't take reservations and I noticed there is usually a long line for dinner. I wish one day they would accept reservations!

I can't believe I've never tried boiling point after so many years of my life. I came for their birthday deal (a free soup and drink on your bday!) and was so pleased. It wasn't too busy when I arrived around 11:30 on a weekday but it filled up quick after. I got the seafood tofu soup with rice, and a passion fruit green tea. Everything was delicious! The soup was so light yet flavorful, and there was plenty of seafood and meat inside. I love their dipping sauces as well. The passion fruit green tea was also so yummy - it tasted like it came from a high quality boba shop! Thanks for the great experience! read more
I love me some good soup! I came here for lunch on a week day and just snagged a table before the lunch rush. It does seem to get quite busy so plan on a wait if you come here. The beef soup lunch combo comes with plentiful amount of toppings, a side of rice or noodles, and an iced tea of your choice (I recommend the winter melon tea!) I upgraded my rice to the egg rice option and it was well worth it. If you break the yolk over the rice and mix it up, it gives the rice so much flavor. read more

I adore this little place. individual hot pots that is so delicious. Only a couple of the staff are friendly but they are all helpful enough. It does get a little noisy in here but overall a good vibe. You don't have to wait long for the food. However, if you are going at prime time get ready to wait for the table itself. Unfortunately, you cannot get on the waiting list unless you are there in person so sometimes it can be quite a long wait. The flavors are great but I always feel very bloated from the sodium. read more

I love boiling point! The Bellevue location is on the smaller side so theres not as much seating. There is almost always a long wait for BP. They have a waiting list system that will text you when your table is ready. Once you are seated, you pretty much order right away. The food doesn't take too long to come out. I always get the Korean soybean paste with medium spice and white rice. This always hits the spot. I've never once had a bad experience here. I love coming here, the only downside is the wait. read more

4.5 stars! Boiling Point is a Must in the Seattle Freeze Every time we're in Seattle, Boiling Point is a must-visit. Here's what makes it so special: Garlic Bean Paste with House Special: Pure deliciousness--rich, savory, and comforting. Fermented Tofu: Super stinky in the best way possible--a bold and unforgettable flavor. Favorite Ingredients: Beef, tomatoes, cabbage, mushrooms, and fishcake--all my top picks in one bowl. Service: The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. I also love the free digestive jelly they give at the end--such a thoughtful touch! One downside is the wait. I wish they had a reservation system because we were stuck outside in the freezing cold with limited space to wait. In hindsight, we could've stayed warm next door at Snowy Village. Even with the wait, the food and service make it absolutely worth it. Perfect for warming up in the Seattle chill! read more
Sometimes you want your individual hot pot and this place is perfect for it! I got the beef order with "hot" level of spice and the broth was a mild soup flavoring a little bit of a kick. The portion is big, no need to add anything extra. A lot of people were ordering milk tea so I got the old time delight milk tea and it was as good as you'd get from a boba shop. The restaurant is pretty small so the wait can be long, but the staff are as efficient as they can be. Free parking in the plaza the restaurant is located in, and restroom inside as well. read more

This was my second time at Boiling Point, but my first time at the Bellevue location. My friend and I came in the evening around 9pm on a weekday after working out (Boiling Point closes at 10pm). As expected, there weren't too many diners at that time of night. The restaurant isn't super big. It has maybe 10-12 tables or so. Last time I was at Boiling Point, I ordered the lamb hotpot with a hot spicy level. I really enjoyed the dish and thought it was maybe a 3 star spice at most. This time, I decided to get the Taiwanese Spicy hotpot. The TAIWANESE SPICY hotpot only comes at flaming spicy heat level. As someone who normally gets 4-star spicy dishes (and can tolerate 5 stars), I decided to give it a try - after all, how spicy could it actually be? Big mistake. When they say flaming spicy, they mean FLAMING SPICY!!! I'd say flaming spicy was the equivalent of a 7-8 star spice level as this dish burnt my lips, mouth, throat, and everything inside of me. My lips were literally red and swollen after and my throat was sore for days following. While the ingredients in the hot pot were plentiful, I could barely taste anything as the spicy broth made the dish borderline inedible. Needless to say, I was hungry and wasn't about to waste $30 worth of hot pot, which in hindsight, maybe I should've... My friend ordered the MISO hotpot at mild spice level which was much better than mine. I used her broth to cool down my palette. The broth was savory, creamy, and had a strong umami taste - at least from what my burnt tongue could taste. It was almost like ramen miso broth. Service was great late at night and the servers were very friendly. Even though I 100% regret getting the Taiwanese Spicy hotpot, I hope to come back and try a different hotpot (at a mild or medium spice level) and give them a second chance. Overall, 2/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere read more
Boiling Point is quickly becoming one of my favorites for hot pot! I love the individual portions and I find it the perfect amount for 2 meals for me. My favorite pot is definitely the beef with medium spice. It comes with an array of different goodies. I also love that the lunch comes with a complimentary tea! Their iced green tea is sooo delicious and refreshing. I'm usually a sipper when it comes to drinks but I can downnn this lol I've also tried the curry cream pot and that one is a close 2nd for me. The restaurant does fill up and gets pretty busy, I'm surprised that the reviews are not higher! Service has been a hit or miss, they tend to disappear after they serve your food but ahhh I love it here. Super yummy read more
Came here before they open at 11:00 am on a Wednesday morning and there was a long wait already. What I like about BP it serves a decent portion of individual hot pot. When you come during lunch hours you get free tea drink. We ordered the lamb, beef and Taiwanese hot pot, we all enjoyed the soup. We love BP but the downside of this place is that parking is difficult, there is limited amount of parking spaces so it's best to either carpool or park on the street and walk over to the restaurant. Tiny restaurant so expect to wait in line. read more
As a hot pot enthusiast, Boiling Point is one of my favorite spots! Every soup I've tried has been so flavorful and rich, from the House Special to the Beef to the Taiwanese Spicy hot pots. Their drinks are also a good quality, more than you might expect from a restaurant that doesn't specialize in drinks. Additionally, they give very generous portions of meat and vegetables, and you always leave feeling full and satisfied. There is usually a wait at this location, so make sure to plan for that! read more

SO GOOD!! I was in town visiting family and they brought us to boiling point and it was so delicious and comfortable on a cold day. I'm so sad they don't have boiling point where I live I'd for sure go back 5/5 food - I got the beef pot they give sm meat 5/5 service - quick and so accommodating 5/5 vibes - popular spot, get there early!! read more

It's a cute little restaurant place where you can order the soup you like. I got the BEEF HOT SOUP which was tasty! The thing that was disappointing was finding out there was only one type of noodles-- I was hoping there would be a variety of noodles like ramen or udon. Other than that, the flavors tasted amazing and my favorite was the piece of rice cake that said 'I love BP'. read more

Visited Boiling Point in Bellevue today, and as always, the food really hit the spot. It was comforting and full of flavor. I showed up early enough to avoid any wait, which was a huge plus. The real downside is the parking situation; the lot is either packed or incredibly tight, and it always feels like a scratch waiting to happen. Inside, the service was decent and nothing to rave about, but they were available when needed. The bathroom could definitely use more attention, as it wasn't very clean. Overall, the food carries the experience, but the location and upkeep hold it back a bit. JY review read more
