    I've been wanting to try the hot pot at Boiling Point for so long. Boiling Point is the top destination for Individual Hot Pot, specializing in personalized portions made with very fresh ingredients. Their signature hot soups are inspired by authentic Taiwanese flavors. Hot soups were served, along with sides of rice or vermicelli and iced teas. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice, and the staff were very attentive. I went during lunch hour and I waited outside the restaurant for less than ten minutes, but it was worth the wait. I ordered the Japanese Miso Hot Soup with a side of vermicelli. The Japanese Miso Hot Soup is a savory and comforting dish featuring seafood such as crab, shrimp, and clams, and a rich miso broth. It includes vegetables, pork slices, dried tofu slices, and udon, providing a savory "umami" flavor. I immediately drenched the vermicelli into the hot broth and once the vermicelli was cooked, I took them out and put them inside a bowl. The vermicelli was delicious, so are the seafood, tofu, and vegetables. I would go back to Boiling Point and try their other hot soups sometime when the outdoor temperature is cool or chilly. Plenty of parking.

    #2 Seafood & Tofu Hot Soup

    I came here on a Thursday night around 8 pm. Typically we don't go to boiling point because there's usually a long wait. We put ourselves on the waitlist and it only took about 15 minutes before we got seated. You scan a QR code for the menu. There was a milk tea deal for 50% off from 3 pm-closing. I got the seafood and hot tofu soup, mild. It was fine, but I recall when I've had this at other boiling points previously, it came with a small baby octopus and fish balls filled with roe or something, which they didn't have either of these this time. I got the Cha jelly milk tea as part of the 50% off milk tea deal. I liked this drink as it didn't have a strong tea flavor and the jelly added some texture to the drink. Relatively smaller location compared to Garden Grove and Irvine.

    It's Friday and it's lunchtime me and a good friend decided let's find a good place to eat. That's a little different than our Friday and usual Korean barbecue so we found this place the one and only boiling point in Gardena getting there was not too bad coming from the 91 freeway just right off of Western Avenue getting into the parking area and where the food is really off the street so you gotta go through the side driveway to get to the parking lot in the back. After you find parking, you'll find the entrance to boiling point double doors and you'll be greeted with the waiter or waitress and you can see the number of tables in front of you. It's just a long narrow hallway with both seating on on both side of the wall and the cash register and food area is to your left. I count roughly about 1415 tables that can seat up two pairs of two with front to back enough room to put two hot pot stove with a little bit of room in between for a bowl of rice or noodle. The establishment is not fancy, but it is lively and average noise. It is perfect for a couple or a pair but anything bigger than that you might as well find a different boiling point or a restaurant altogether definitely recommending for smaller groups of twos separated by tables and I highly recommend getting there if you want for lunchtime right after 11 AM we got there roughly around 11:38 AM and there was only two tables of seating up to two left. I have not been to this particular one, but I am going to recommend it because it is just fantastic. Boiling point does not disappoint. I guess another way of saying that is highly recommending boiling point. It is the best if not the best. Well, I tried the Taiwanese spicy soup that has combination of all the inner my buddy got the typical beef soup with medium spice. All I can really say is the food and soup is phenomenal. I'm talking about it can literally make you be full and a good feeling of being full with good food combination of noodles, vegetables, proteins, and a little kick of spice or you can add a little bit more since they have side sauces for you to use. I am highly recommending this place. Lastly the staff hair is always helping you making sure you are satisfy and meet all your needs. The lovely Sammi was always a tentative to our table ensuring we have what we need. Making sure if we needed more fire or more soup it was just awesome.

    Boiling Point prices have definitely gone up in recent years. It's still delicious and satisfies your hot point cravings. It's relatively clean, when you come in you can waitlist on the iPad or they'll have a QR code for you to scan This BP location is in a very busy plaza with lots of dining options. I'd recommend coming before 6pm if you don't want to wait long. We always come before 6 since it's easy to park and we never have to wait more than 15 mins to get a table. Come later, parking can be a pain to find in the plaza and the waits become much longer. It's also one of the smaller BP locations I've been too. One downside to this location is probably the slow-ish service. Mainly in that, you really have to get their attention for anything (ordering, water, napkins, check, etc.). They're not proactive with the service, but when you do ask for something, they do it right away. Sometimes I'll see a table left alone without be cleaned for a while. Reminder - you can ask them to turn off your flame if it's too hot for you, ask for more flame if it's dying out or ask for more broth if you're running low. Honestly, you can't really go wrong with any of their options, it's really a matter of what you're craving and levels of spice. Each order comes with rice or vermicelli. You'll get a good mix of carbs, veggies, proteins. Safe options would be the beef since the house has stinky tofu that can take over the dish If you're not a fan of stinky tofu. I like stinky tofu, but not in their broth Other favorites of mine are the milk cream curry and lamb. Sometimes, they'll have a pomelo one as well and that's pretty good. I don't usually get a large options, but miso is good and if you like spicy, try the Taiwanese spicy. It's a blast. Overall a good BP location and the closest one for me to visit.

    Taiwanese Spicy minus blood and intestines
    Ali I.

    Boiling point is always satisfying when you are craving soup. Not too many places in the Southbay you can get Taiwanese/hot pot style soups so this is def a gem. If there are items in the soup you don't want you can just ask them to take them out. It does get busy so I always try to go during off times. Never has been an issue for me. Seats are super hard so I brought in my donut pillow lol. I haven't been here in years but most recently I got their Taiwanese Spicy. Comes in a large size and I def had leftovers. Spicy wise it is pretty spicy but if you like spicy food you'll be fine. If you're a medium spicy person it will prob be too spicy for you. I added more of their chili sauces for flavor. Usually I don't order drinks but I got a winter melon tea and the iced sweet drink paired well with the spicy soup.

    As always, a visit here is a must when we're in town! Yes. The line and wait is long. Ah, as long as you have time, it's worth the wait! Had the beef (no spice) with extra cilantro. Used all the sauces except the chili, so there was a slight kick but not too much;)! Managed to almost finish my whole pot! Cheryl did the best at cleaning up her hot pot, I was second, and Jeni had to leave some in her pot unfinished. We were so stuffed we could barely breathe, ha ha! We chose noodles over rice, which comes pre packed ! They chose green tea and I chose the winter melon tea. Yum!!! Great service, great staff teamwork on moving guests through their dining experience so others may also enjoy, and their restroom is clean, spacious and bright. (Careful, the door is heavy...) Thanks again and we'll be back! Oh, they have a summer bowl special with Lu Wei appetizer. Do check that out!

    This was the most disappointing meal I've had. This place has really gone down hill. In the past few years, there has been so many changes to the ingredients that the it doesn't even taste the same anymore. The beef is grey, dry, and tough now. They switched the vermicelli to a cheaper, lower quality version found in instant hot pot kits. They got rid of the iconic BP mochi fish cake. The sauce options were reduced to only 3 varieties. Now, the tofu skin is replaced with some nasty preservative tofu substitute. I've been coming here for more than 10 years, but it's unrecognizable now. All these changes from corporate have ruined Boiling Point. So many cuts and cost saving measures, and for what? So there's extra money for their employees to wear bright red digital name tags? The employees don't even look happy working there, no one greets the customers and everyone has this blank stare and speaks with the same monotone voice. One of the worst experiences I've ever had, and I wasn't even expecting much.

    Yes, in summertime we still eat hot soup. Lol My husband and I arrived about 10-15 minutes early and were second in line. Fernando, who was working that day, was so nice and offered to add our name to the list right away--I really appreciated that because not all places do this. Some restaurants make you feel like you're a bother if you show up early, but here we felt welcomed. The food was excellent! I ordered the Miso and my husband had the Curry. We also tried the Garlic Pork appetizer, which was delicious. The portions were very generous--we both ended up asking for to-go bowls. We also signed up for the rewards program, and we're definitely looking forward to coming back. Overall, an awesome place with great food and friendly service!

    Lunch special (one entree and a drink), also got a side via influencer promo code
    Luke B.

    Pretty small location, so it gets busy fast. Expect to wait during the dinner rush. Lunch is probably the best time to go due to less crowds plus their lunch special is a good deal. Food is decent. When it gets busy you have to hunt down the staff and ask if you want your flame turned off or your water refilled. Otherwise they're super friendly.

    #8 Taiwanese Spicy Hot Soup
    Alice H.

    BP has always been a staple hot pot restaurant and it never fails. I usually opt for Taiwanese spicy but dang I forgot how spicy it was. Each hotpot has a good balance of vegetables, noodles, and meat. The most recent time I came here, we were literally the last ones on the waitlist!! thank god cuz I might've been pissed cuz I was hungry. Service is usually pretty fast considering how busy they are. But coming at night too close to closing time isn't good bc they run out of the little konjac jelly thing they give out at the end lol :p The only thing I really don't like about this place is how the tables are SUPER close together. Might as well eat on one big table all together hahahahaha Other than that, FIYA!

    #4 Beef Hot Soup
    Deanne

    Absolutely delicious! I'm fairly picky with soup, so I decided to get beef hot soup as a safe option. I did not regret it at all! It was so flavorful. The service was very attentive and helpful! For a party of 8 on new year's day it was a 40 minute wait. We went through a few shops that were in the plaza to kill time, and I highly recommend doing that too!

    #9 Japanese Miso Hot Soup with very little spice
    Clara P.

    We love this BP location and that discovered that it's not too busy for weekday dinners as I had feared. I usually came for lunch and it's been crowded, but just before 6, it was ok, which was a relief since I had the kids in tow. They excel at satisfying the spicy craving, and everyone knows that already. But this time, I needed the not spicy to feed 2 yr old, and the beef at no spicy level was perfectly good for her, and still very delicious for me as well. We also got the miso which had just a hint of spicy oil and my 7 yr old liked it along with the beef. They have a whole set of condiments at every table so adults can always add or dip as desired if you are sharing with kids. They also had tiny udon bowls for free for kids, which was a good side for toddler, though she mostly liked my hot pot better. But just very nice when a restaurant is willing to accommodate the parents in any way. Had no idea how hard it is to eat out with little ones until I had them LOL. I also tried the mango aloe vera drink and it was delectable! It had big chunks of aloe and wasn't too sweet so it didn't interfere with dinner. The staff was quick and friendly, we got everything we needed, without delay. Thanks BP, we had a good birthday dinner.

    No garlic soy sauce no chopsticks no spoons we ordered 2 orders with 2 rice and given 1 small one. If you guys are us, will you eat these 2 orders sharing 1 small rice, wrong sauce, and eat by hands right? Let me see you guys eating soup with your hands. Your logic is cal tech ivy league class! Thank you for fulfilling very simple orders guys! Much appreciated!

Not super cheap but you're not gonna break the bank. Anyway I'll definitely come back!

We asked for not spicy and there was only a hint of white pepper. The only negative was the presentation. It is served in a large paper cone. That's fine if you're eating and walking with it. But at a table, the cone was so tall that you have to stand up to see the chicken inside. And you have to rotate the cone if you're sharing since one side of the cone is taller than the other. The stinky tofu was serviceable but it could have been stinkier. The beef noodle soup was okay. The beef was very tender and the soup was good. But it's not as flavorful as the ones at Sue's Kitchen up the street. The only miss for me was the Dan Dan noodles. I was warned it was spicy but it was a bit spicier than I anticipated. That's ok but the sauce had a weird sour taste to it that was kind of off putting. The service is very attentive. I wish they served boba drinks. Overall we will definitely be back. I can't wait until they open their new branch up in Palos Verdes later this year.

We ordered the xiao long bao, broccoli beef, beef rolls, and chicken chow mein. The xiao long bao was excellent with a good amount of soup in each dumpling, and the beef rolls were probably my favorite item, especially dipped in a mix of black vinegar and soy sauce. The broccoli beef had a nice flavor, though I wished it had a little more meat. The chicken chow mein was the weakest dish for me: the noodle texture was great, but the overall flavor didn't stand out as much as I expected. Ordering was easy and the menu was very approachable thanks to the pictures. The restaurant is on the smaller side, which actually made it easier to get a server's attention when needed. Food also came out pretty quickly. The ambiance is straightforward and comfortable -- nothing fancy, just a solid neighborhood restaurant.

Located on the border of Torrance and Gardena, the restaurant, with its casual décor, is large enough for 60 guests when 2 large round party tables are included. The always-friendly staff brought the menu and water right away. For this visit, we ordered the following dishes (which started arriving within 10 minutes): Roast Duck: As expected, the duck skin was crispy, and the meat was plump, tender and nicely seasoned. Beef Chow Fun: The seasoning was super flavorful, and the glossy, but non-greasy sautéed thick rice noodles had a perfect texture. The beef pieces were tender, and the portion of bean sprouts was just right without overcrowding the dish. Wonton Soup Noodle: The thin noodles were perfectly al dente. The broth was light but flavorful. The wontons had nice thin wraps, and the fillings were well seasoned and with pleasantly firm consistence. We left the restaurant feeling 110% full and satisfied. Highly recommended.

    What a cute tea shop with a modern, slightly Japandi-inspired decor that makes the space feel calm…read moreand inviting. Their drinks were a pleasant surprise. The Thai tea was nicely balanced and not overly sweet, and the Jasmine tea was fragrant, thick, and perfect at 50% sweetness. The matcha latte was the best drink here for me: earthy, not sweet at all, and with a subtle nuttiness that made it so satisfying. The only miss was the strawberry taro, which leaned too sweet for my taste. Overall, a beautifully designed shop with some truly great drinks.

    I finally got around to this tiktok famous spot…read more I wanted a matcha horchata but did not want to make the drive to a farther destination so I settled for trying this place out. It was not that busy at all. It's a small place but there's a good amount of seating for the size of the place. There's parking in the plaza & they have restrooms. I ordered their own matcha horchata and .... ...:. .... I only was able to taste milk. I have no clue how it is made, but I genuinely was like..... I feel like I'm drinking cows milk. I was not impressed at all. I tasted 0 horchata and 0 matcha it was the weirdest experience. The cashier was somewhat nice? It was a minimal interaction. There's screens to order as well so maybe he was not expecting the human interaction. Either way it threw me off unfortunately. I'd have to wait a while to see if I wanna come back and try something different. There's too many coffee and milk tea shops that come to my mind first to visit instead.

    We visit every 2-3 months and usually order the same main item but the sides may be different…read more We visited just prior the July 4th holiday. We were the first to arrive and had the place to ourselves for about 15min. It was packed by the time we left! Glad to see they are doing well! Since our last visit, the interior changed a bit. There's " art " on the windows - photos depicting Korean food culture. The banchan offering also changed. In addition to the kimchi and the cabbage, we received cucumbers and noodles. The noodles were a tad salty. We ordered to share: Pork neck stew - small. There is more than enough for two people to share. This is our favorite dish and will usually order this. Seafood pancake Delicious! I do wish it was slightly crispier. Fried laver This is new item for us. It's very simple. Seafood wrapped around seasoned glass noodles. Simple but addictive! Iced Sikhye They used to have a slushy machine that churned this out. I was so sad when that machine disappeared. The drink has reappeared as a cold drink. I'll take it! I still prefer the slushy version! Enjoy!

But, here you feel like eating at home with good old felling and at ease. Great, nice and friendly plus fast service. The place is still the same as 4-5-6 yrs ago, but still clean and neat. Parking is easy, either in parking lot of their own or street parking. Still enjoy and love this place.

Both were fantastic. The restaurant is really clean and well kept. Dining using the table app is easy and accurate. Even though we arrived late they still had all the items we wanted to order. And the staff members are very friendly. We've only dined here twice but each time was a memorable experience.

Ordered:…read more beef roll - 6/10, pancake was very doughy, decent filling, but everything was chopped too finely. hot and sour soup - 6/10, someone put too much cornstarch slurry in. popcorn chicken with basil - interesting plating; not used to basil being fully attached to stems. Chicken was good. Wish the chicken was tossed with basil before served. sesame noodles with chicken - 7/10. $3 chicken add-on was sparse. Noodles seem like they're housemade, a plus. chicken and corn dumplings - 7/10. Decently filled. Dough is not QQ, but serviceable and consistent thickness. Decor is nice; plates and bowls have the restaurant name monogrammed. Service was relatively quick. Got there on a Sunday evening, less than half of the dining room was occupied. They have a cute Lulu-style canvas bag if you have a lot of leftovers.
