This review might be a bit biased as I love hot pots however they are - mini personalized pots or shared hot pots. I live hot soup with noodles and a variety of meats and ingredients. Hot pots are my comfort food. Boiling Point's concept is simple - prepared mini pots with different ingredients and flavours. We were basically asked whether we like udon or vermicelli. Some pots come spicy and spice level can be made less spicy to your liking. There are sauces and spices on the table. We ordered the House Special Hot Soup, Seafood &Tofu Hot Soup and Beef Hot Soup. Each were good, portions were more than enough for me. I always love a hot pot of noodle soup, my type of comfort food for sure.
Boiling Point restaurant is highly recommended for its affordable hot pots. They have a variety of choices such as beef soup, Korean soup, seafood, curry etc. My friends and I went there a few times and we got to taste different flavours, we ended up liking beef, Korean and seafood, there are times when the hot pot is full of veggies and little meat sometimes just the right amount but overall it's fulfilling and sometimes theirs even leftover, cause we're so full. For about twenty dollars you get a hot pot, your choice of rice or vermicelli, free milk teas during lunchtime and a jelly snack. I can say it is worth trying out if you haven't checked on them yet.
It's so busy here On a Friday night, we waited for 20min for a table They don't take reservations here They have photos of the hot pot on the wall without descriptions so the scanned QR code menu is more helpful The Lamb hot pot was pretty tasty. It comes with thin slices of lamb, tofu, cabbage, egg, beam thread, 1 clam, imitation crab stick, firm tofu, pork blood, mushrooms and pickled veggies. I also get a choice of extra bean thread or bowl or steamed rice They also give a cup of water in a sealed cup ( like the ones for bubble tea) to each guest instead of reusable cups. The food was tasty and the order is ready in a flash I understand that dinner rush is busy, but the staff were also very loud when cleaning tables quickly and stacking the finished hot pot stands away. It was just very inconsiderate for the patrons who are eating and having to hear all this. I would probably come back on a weeknight to try their other hot pot and drinks It's very tough to find parking in this plaza
Beef hot pot, $18.15 (dinner price), 9/10: One of boiling points classics, and my first time trying the beef HP from here! I love how the beef is thinly sliced which absorbs more flavour in the soup. The portions of the veggies and other ingredients were also very generous making it a balanced meal! I recommend dipping your food in their garlic soy sauce.Spiciness is adjustable too! Scallion gravy rice (+$1.25 upgrade from reg rice), 6/10: Rice portions are also huge! I wanted to try this out but overall nothing special. The strong onion taste of the scallion didn't go too well with the runny gravy, and it did get more salty & oily at the end. If you don't want to upgrade you can always stick with their complimentary vermicelli or regular white rice! They will also provide free lemon jellies after your meal The last time I went was Nov. 2020. Since then their seating area now is back to full capacity, and we were able to get a spot right away on a Saturday evening! Boiling point continues to keep it safe with plexi glass as well. Service is still really good with the employees checking in on our food! Everything came within 5 mins, love the efficiency! Lunch time is cheaper & it comes w/ a free drink but dinner is just as enjoyable!
We were here on a friday dinner. Its always busy here. The parking lot is pretty small shared with other restaurants so it takes awhile to look for a spot. I would recommend one person to go in the place and reserve a spot as they call the number when a table gets ready. So obviously there's no reservation in advance here. They have the QR menu available while waiting so when we sat down we were all ready to place our orders. We ordered the seafood and tofu and the beef flavour The portion is good! Unlimited soup. Very tasty! Their prices went up since last I was here but COVID happened. They check vaccination identification and have a plexi glass to separate your party from the other table. Clean but I wish you can just pay in ur table instead of lining up just because we have the boiling point reward card.
Haven't been here for a while, so it was time to hit it up again. This place is chock full of college kids. My buddy and I felt super old eating here. The interior looks pretty much the same as before as well. Their hot pot seems to have improved compared to the last time I was here (5 years ago). Looks like there's more food in the pots now. The spice levels on the menu are tailored to North American standards (ie weak sauce). I had my pot "very spicy" (3 chili peppers) and didn't even blink. Extra meat can be had for a few bucks more. Just be sure to cook any raw meat before the gel flame under the pot runs out.
I give it four stars for the concept but I wish they had more fish filet options. Lots of vegetables and you can ask for less salt. Not a big fan of fatty pieces of pork or pork blood. I recommend to try this place when you're in an exotic mood. 20 minute wait time last Sunday -- when you arrive, take a number and wait. Ask for a menu while you're waiting because it's a lot of reading. Was going to prefer the flower pop but changed my mind because I found out it's not 'pop' it's just tapioca pearls in chrysanthemum flavoured water with brown sugar. Cool name though!
I was surprise how different this Boiling Point is compared to the Seattle one. I had a little bit too much of an expectation here to begin with. Concept is the same. Well food menu and drinks are the same. Came in put down your name and wait to be called. LIke the one in USA, lots of young people here. But of course this BP is way smaller than the Seattle one. So I ordered the lamb hot soup and my mom ordered the seafood veggie hot soup. Well my lamp hot soup doesn't have much lamb. Well told them to get rid of the pork blood (sounds really nasty) well I don't want bloody soup. Apparently you can take out but not substitute. Oh well. One less thing in my pot for the same price. My mom ordered the Seafood Veggie Hot Soup and I was surprised. When I saw it I was like is that Veggie soup?? I asked and the newbie trainie guy said yes. So I see more green then seafood. I mean there is hardly any seafood in there. But at the end of the day my mom and I were full. The drinks are good but not as good as the Seattle Boiling Point. My mom and I both got the Hokaido milk tea, which I proudly recommended to her. As a tip you will be better off to order rice then vermicelle and the reason why is that the hot soup already come with vermcellie. The rice will make it less soupy. You don't have to eat the rice but the rice acts like it soaks up the soup kind of idea. Unless you like to have soup then rice might not be ideal. Like I say I was a bit disappointed when realizing the Seattle one is way better.
Cold? hungry? and want something hot in order to warm up in the raincouver weather? Why not try Taiwanese Hot Pot, especially when you have your own serving, another words your own order - this place is something that you should consider visiting. This Boiling point Richmond location for some reason taste better, from the broth to the meat - in my honest opinion it taste fresher!! I order the Lamb Hot Pot - and does not taste gamey at all. My partner ordered the house special hot pot - she like it as well! Very tasty! However dinner parking can be a challenge and be hard to find. It gets very busy!! This location gets busy during 5:00 pm and onwards. You need to take a ticket to ensure you're lined up to wait for a seat. It does move quite quickly though. Service is very good and when we wanted tea or water - extra napkins. The waitresses ensured that we got the service and she was in training - well done!! Will come back again !
From my last review Feb 2011, I didn't return to Boiling Point over 2 years. It's time to write another update review. Basically, not much change on menu even the quality of food. I found they have few new items on the menu and price increased. My hubby ordered curry fish balls hot pot in medium spicy was ok. Curry based broth was so light and only has 5 fish balls and other mixed vegetables with rice. My beef hot pot in mild spicy wasn't spicy at all and beef so chewy. The super thin tofu with small chuck of corn with some vegetables made the pot look better.

Always great value and variety in these one person hot pots! Service was a bit off putting, as I was dining solo and did not have my order taken until 15 minutes after being seated. Once ordered though, food arrives quickly and again, always tasty. Rice or vermicelli included and a cold tea complimentary at lunch. Very tight tables and usually packed, makes for a lively environment but you'll be dining side by side the other guests! read more

RAISING PRICE AND CUTTING CORNERS Food used to be awesome! The price went up recently (which is fine), but now they use cheap, fatty beef. This isn't proper hot pot meat -- it's leftover bacon scraps. My beef hot pot had more fat than a garlic pork belly order. Super disappointing. 当然可以！这是你评论的中文版本，尽量保留了你的语气和原意： 以前的食物真的很棒！最近价格涨了（可以接受），但现在用的牛肉很便宜又肥。根本不是火锅该用的肉，像是剩下的培根边角料。我点的牛肉火锅，肥肉比蒜香五花肉还多，太让人失望了。 read more
Love the food here. It's so comforting to me. You can pick a hotpot base that comes with veggies and meat (or they have veggie options too) and then pick if you want rice or vermicelli with it. And they've got a lot of drinks too. Food comes fast and service is good :) read more

I would have to give this 3 stars. Although I do come here often for a hot pot fix, there are a few things I like/dislike about this location. To start, I don't really understand their ticketing system. Sometimes they have seats that are empty but they are not seating anyone. It's quite painful coming here with a group, definitely try to avoid coming here if you have more than five people in your party. It's not worth the wait and they don't take reservations. I do quite enjoy their food - I recommend the beef and the lamb soup. Big portioned and comes with rice or vermicelli. You can also choose the spice level. I also like their Hokkaido Milk Tea. Sometimes they make it sweet and sometimes they make it taste a tad bit watery. The dinner price is a $1+ more than their lunch price. Service - this is where I am quite iffy about. Sometimes we get excellent service and sometimes it's not that great. The times we get good service is where the waiter/waitress were very attentive and came by often. The not-so-good service was when they really messed up our order quite badly. From wrong food, spice level, and drinks (happened a few times). It gets to a point where they get really confused with the orders and comes by often to reaffirm our order. All-in-all, still one of my favorite hot pot place. Just don't mind the service, have your fill of hot pot and go! TIP: Boiling Point takes debit/credit. Don't try coming in during rush hour as it does get quite busy and you might be waiting for more than 30 minutes. read more

My fiancé and I stopped by for a super late lunch/early dinner last Saturday. We just missed their lunch special, which was $1 off with a free drink (before 3pm). Too bad. As usual, I got the Japanese miso hot soup with mild spice. It was delicious as usual. However, I need to comment on the crab in the pot... it's honestly just for show. Getting the meat out is almost impossible, and when you do, the meat is mushy and flavourless. For my drink, I ordered a yogurt green tea. It was pretty gross. I've had it at other places where it was delicious, but it just wasn't the case here. Don't order it. Overall, I enjoy the Burnaby location more for their decor and service, but in terms of food, the Richmond location is fine as well. read more
OVERALL (2/5): I really need to stop coming here because I've never come out satisfied. Coming from LA, I've had the OG Boiling Point many times and it's always been a 3/5 star experience. But my dad loves this place for some reason so I subjected myself to yet another mediocre BP experience. On the plus side, we came here at 10:30 PM on a Friday night and there was no wait, which is almost unheard of for any BP. FOOD: - Kimchi Tofu (2/5): Cold tofu plus bean paste, topped with a meager amount of overly salty kimchi. Big whoop. - Korean Bean Paste Hot Pot, Medium Spicy (3/5): As always, there was a generous portion of pork belly. And that's about all that was good about this. The ramen noodles were overcooked from the get-go, I counted exactly 5 rice cakes--all of which were soggy and impressively mushy. There weren't enough veggies, and the "fish fillet" was literally just an inch of tilapia. Tilapia is probably the cheapest fish you can buy so like?? When I order something with "bean paste" in the name, I expect to taste bean paste. But nope. All I got was saltiness. Should've brought my own gochujang and stirred some into the broth. Also, the bean paste dipping sauce (which is usually the best part of BP imo), was disappointing. The one in LA is sweeter and chunkier, while the one here was just greasy and salty. SERVICE (3/5): No major complaints here, but we didn't ask them for much. Had to remind them a couple times to bring waters, and they never refilled our cups. AMBIANCE (2.5/5): - The couple in the booth next to me and my dad were hardcore making out and just UGH why. - Looks like your typical BP, with tables kind of close together to maximize seating. - There were flies circling our tofu, but I'm glad that at least someone liked it. read more

We got here at 6:30pm on a Thursday and we got seats after waiting for about 15 minutes. It got really crowded after 7:30pm as a lot of people would be queueing outside of the restaurant. And we were politely asked by the server to leave after we finished the food. My friend who lives in this area said the wait can go up to an hour. The food was yummy and I like how you can choose he level of spice you'd like in your hotpot. I tried the original hotpot and the guava juice. There's a slight hint of stinky tofu taste in the pot, I guess hence the name of the restaurant 'smelly smelly pot'. Beware if you're not a big fan of this taste. Personally I don't mind it and I find it to be an interesting twist. Everything came up to be about $20 for one person. Lunch would be a better deal as the set includes a drink. read more

When i heard of this place, I kept thinking of that movie with, whats his name...oh yeh, Wesley Snips or something. So, being a fan of whatshisname, i gladly went along with a few friends. Was expecting all you can eat, but it turns out it is actually personal sized hot pot. You get a choice of beef, lamb, vegetarian, seafood and kimchi type of hotpot. All the ingredients are served up inside already, no cooking needed, unless you order the extra side dishes (You can order, frozen tofu, extra meat slices, seafood, etc). The service was slow, and we had to ask a few times get our drinks. Maybe they're still working out the kinks. I ordered the hottest soup that they had, but when it came to me, the broth was pretty bland and the soup, wasn't really all that spicy. All in all, it was just an ok experience, I'm not really sure if i want to come back here, we'll see. Maybe they'll have worked out the kinks by then. read more
I love Boiling Point, especially, the ones in Irvine and Garden Grove. However, it was not the case for this particular location. My friends and I were on a road trip to Vancouver and we decided to check this place out. We waited at the entrance, hoping someone would greet us or show us to our table. That was not the case. We actually seated ourselves. On top of that, none of the waiter bothers to stop by our table for our drink orders, even though there were at least 8 workers (all running around aimlessly). Every time we needed something, like an extra bowl or spoon. None of the worker would give us the time of day. THe highlight of the evening had to be the buy one get one free milkshakes. We ended up getting the Matcha Green Tea and it tasted the same as the Starbuck Green Tea Frap. Overall, will not be coming back to this location ever again. PS. Please hire better workers :) read more

Came here for dinner over the weekend in a group of 6 and I left dissapointed, mostly due to the poor service. Boiling Point serves up personal sized hot pots with your choice of beef, lamb, korean kimchi, tomato & vegetables, curry fish ball, seafood and the house special spicy soup. As a note, they also ask you how spicy you want it and don't worry, honestly, I ordered the second hottest one and it wasn't spicy at all. They have side dishes that you can order and if you are at all hungry, I suggest you do, as there isn't that much meat that comes with your order. Anyways, we sat down, weren't offered any tea or water. Fine, I'm not super picky and I'm going to order a drink anyways. In any case, I tried the Lamb hot pot, asked for it to be hot (in terms of spiciness), added iced tofu as a side and ordered the old-time plum tea. Now, from the moment the server took our order, things didn't start right, probably due to the fact that most of us were ordering in english, but more on the fact that they had a check-box style order sheet and he had to use it. The problem with this, is that if one patron orders a dish and as the server goes around the table and wants another of the same dish, but with different options, it can get confusing for the server. For most hot -pot restaurants, I prefer to check off the boxes ourselves. It's easier for both the patrons and the servers. Our food came relatively quickly, but the drinks were a mess. My drink never came, even though I politely reminded the server. A couple of my friends drinks came out wrong and when they were corrected, they arrived really late. Anyhow, the hot pot itself was fairly decent. I used the garlic-bean sauce mixed with the hot chili oil from the sauce cart and this was a great combo. There wasn't enough meat for a dinner serving and it seemed to be mostly napa cabbage in my hot pot and in other people's as well. The iced tofu was literally ice cubes, but once they were heated up in the broth, they tasted quite good. I can only give this place 2 stars at the moment, due to my poor experience here. I will give this place a try, maybe at lunch with my wife and do a follow-up. read more

Great service when I stopped by with a group of friends for lunch. I ordered the medium spicy tonkotsu miso. Drink was included as part of the lunch special pricing and I chose iced black tea. Food arrived fairly quickly. The black tea was lightly sweetened and was quite refreshing when eating pipping hot food. I found the tonkotsu miso hot pot to be a bit on the salty side. There was a good variety of toppings that I thoroughly enjoyed eating. Staff stopped by regularly to refill water cups, and soup. Separate payment was not allowed. Parking on the plaza can be very challenging during peak hours. read more
Good food. Service is pretty good despite them being really busy (when I went). I like the fact that they have this machine when you walk in where you put down how many people are in your party and they can text you when a table is opening up. It definitely helps when they're busy. Pricing is good and the portion is good too. I don't feel super full but just right after dinner. read more
While I'm sitting here having a coffee at the "bucks" I find myself having time to thumb out this review on my teeny tiny IPhone. The keyboard is getting harder to type as I get older in age and my eyes aren't so good. I have to take off my glasses in order to read my teensie iPhone. So let's get started shall we? We're at the Boiling Point now that it's time to write this update on a favourite of a few of our staffs at my company. The girls like this place because you don't need to think Too much about what to order. They basically come in packages or bundles. There is the Beef the Korean the Taiwanese and so on. Each one has its own set of ingredients from shrimp or fish to mushrooms or kimchi . They come with plenty of veggies and it all gets boiled down in a hot pot lit by flame below I'm a special hot pot holder made of metal. So keep the kids away and don't wear polyester! Thank god the 70's are over. Can you imagine? Anyways, the food cooks and the soup boils and when you get to a point where it is all cooked. You can ask to put out the flame. We had one girl ask this of us and if we wanted extra soup in mandarin but we didn't understand without the hand gestures. So a nice young man came up and asked us in English. Overall we all enjoyed our food. One of my friends ate it all up and she's such a tiny petite lady. I'm amazed and jealous she can eat that much and not look fat like me:(. .... now I'm depressed and why I went to the gym this morning cause I want to come back and stuff my belly with more at the Boiling Point. Much better than a date with A really hot guy. Unless he pays and eats with me and he's funny and witty and charming and rich and has good taste in stuff and is open minded and not selfish and loves food and is not a perv and not creepy and not into himself and kind and charitable. Ok never mind. I'll just go there by myself. read more
A rainy day calls for comfort food like noodle soup and what best way to fuel the soul than hot pot! Boiling point provides individual hot pot for $12.99 plus taxes. They offer 10 different flavour of broth (miso, spicy Taiwanese, tomatoe...etc) that comprise of 1 type of meat, veggies and noodles. I love the concept and the food is tasty, my only beef is they don't allow any substitutions. It kinda sucked because I loved the Japanese miso pot but it only comes with pork and I really don't like pork. My husband wanted to dial down the level of spice in his Taiwanese pot but they said it only comes in flaming hot. I understand there are a lot of picky eaters out there and they would be opening up a can of worms if they allowed too much substitutions but it would be nice if they allowed modest substitutions. Service was mediocre. There was one male server that took forever to seat us despite lots of empty tables and also took forever to bring us our bill when we asked for it. I won't be back here anytime soon or recommend it to friends. read more
Came here for an early dinner last week. I've tried to come here in the past but it seems to be always packed. Got here around 530pm and it was already half full. They are apparently well known because they have individualize hot pots for each patron. Anyway I had the "beef hot soup". It comes with beef and veggies. You can also customize how spicy you want it. There was probably a greater veggie to beef ratio than I would have liked. I usually find it difficult to rate hot pot because it's usually the same ol food cooked in broth. The individualized hot pot is a nice touch. But it does limit the amount and type of food you can eat if you were to share at a more traditional hot pot restaurant. The portions and price is decent. They have parking in the complex, but you're SOL if it is full because there is no street parking. So at your own risk if you park at a neighbouring complex. Can't say that I love it. And can't say that I hate it either. So middle of the road rating it is. read more

I had been eating in this restaurant for almost 2 years now, from good to bad then to good again. The hot pot is too unique and delicious to let it go of it. If you love hot pot with different favours and fill up your appetites, of course with great price, this is the place to be. If you are looking for a good service and a cheap price, you will be disappointed, because the waiters and waitresses there are also cook and drink maker and cashier.
