First thing I noticed was the temperature in the restaurant, it was freezing. They had heat lamps all over the place but none of them were turned on. This was recommended to us by a staff member at the oxygen deprivation tank, so we thought we would try it. We did the all you can eat, if my memory serves me correctly it was around $35 per person. I've never had hot pot before so I'm not sure if that's average price, or if it's on the higher or lower end. The food was good, I had the Szechuan broth (VERY SPICY) like painfully spicy when you get a peppercorn stuck in your tooth it almost felt numbing hahah so strange. I thought it was cool a robot served us food, we ate around 3pm and it wasn't busy at all, grateful we got to have this experience read more

Went in for dim sum & had a wonderful experience! The service was fast & the place didn't look like a dive! TG!!

In Edmonton and wanted something "clean and healthy" to eat. Lol. Hubs says eating ayce boiled veggies and tons of meat does not make for a healthy eating but it was fun! A lot places in Canada seems not have been reviewed post Covid so I was excited about the spot but then nervous cuz all the reviews were so old. We pulled up in front of the restaurant and thought, "I don't know about this place...it seems so randomly out of place and a hole in the wall...". We'll we decided to try it since we didn't want to drive another 20 minutes to try out another spot and boy were we glad we stayed. Don't be put off by the neighborhood and it seems to be a place the locals know about as it filled up while we were there. The place was cold when we walked in but after eating hot pot for about 10 minutes you quickly warm up. The waitstaff was nice and we ordered food and asked if we could order another round later. She said yes without blinking an eye. Well apparently the portions are way bigger than the Bay Area and we had TONS of food. Where to start? The portions were large, about 3x the amount you would get from the Bay. They also had black bean sauce spareribs that were tasty, not all fatty. I was super surprised it tasted so good. You also get 2 oysters per person for your hot pot and some sashimi. The oysters weren't as big as posts from years ago, but they tasted fresh. The sashimi was okay and I was nervous as I think I got sick from the last ayce sushi place I ate at but it was fine. The sashimi tasted a bit too cold but better safe than sorry! Pro tip: One order is enough for 2 people. We ordered 2 meats and that was way too much. Not sure if they would allow it but maybe ask for a half order, then you can order more items! Honestly we were too full to order things like green onion pancake, and dumplings! Service was attentive and the thing I thought was so cool? The robot with the car face that brings you your food! So cool! I would definitely come back or make this a stop if you're in Edmonton! read more

Cute cozy place. Fast service, very clean space and friendly staff. The price was really good compared to other places. They had a variety of sources and broths. Very favorable broth. We had drinks and desser. Very homie feeling and lots of parking ououtside. Nice to have a good hotpot place in the south. Also they had a server robot which impressed me 7 year old :) read more

Chili hotpot has been one of the decent hotpot places in Edmonton over the years. I'd give them 7.5/10 for the quality and variety of their food, for lunch and dinner. They stand out in having more and better drinks than other hotpot places. read more

Chili Hot Pot - the front of the restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

Great Chinese hot pot. When I walked in it's all Caucasians. I thought I went to a westernized Chinese restaurant but it is not the case. Over 15 choices in soup base. Reasonable pricing. Good amount of hot plates. TONS of hot pot ingredients. Very fresh ingredients. Condiment station has over 15 choices of sauces. Wow.... Very good place to visit especially during cold days. The ladies who worked there were very friendly as well. The down side is the seating space was not too comfy and the bathroom... oh gosh... so dirty and they still uses those old fashion hand drying clothes.... Lol. read more

I love this place, me and my girlfriend have been here for 2 anniversaries and some family events. The service is pretty quick and we love the robot server, only thing about this place is that some of the tables are right next to each other so if it's a busy day you may be sitting next to some strangers which is worth it if you tend to forget making reservations or change what you're wanting to eat the day you were planning to go out. Me and my girlfriend highly reccomend if you want some delicious hot pot!! read more

Place is good for a hot pot. I really liked the large selection of meat, veggies, and other hot items you can order. I ended up ordering too much, but the owners were really kind and didn't charge me extra. The place itself looked like the general run down older Chinese fare place. However, don't be fooled, great food. A little pricey for 30 bucks for an evening meal, and I don't really eat enough meat to feel like "I got my moneys worth" but really great fresh produce and good cuts of meat. I also really enjoyed their fried rice and their fried wontons. Loved the people who owned it and also served us, really friendly. There was a great selection of broths to choose. I chose the Tan Tan because I like spice. All in all a fun interactive experience! read more

Chili Hot Pot is one of my favourite Edmonton restaurants. Since takeout isn't really an option with hot pot, I hadn't been here in more than 2 years thanks to the pandemic but last night I came back for the first time and it was like seeing an old friend. In terms of covid-19, they have done their best to add dividers and spacing between the tables but most importantly, they made some major upgrades to their ventilation system. In the past, the humidity of the soups left a permanent haze in the air but no more! Every table now has a vent above it. Chili Hot Pot is super vegetarian-friendly. Just make sure you request your soup be made with "clear water" rather than broth. My go-to if I'm craving some spice is the satay but if I want something more mild, the Chinese herbs soup is a great option too. Hot pot is kind of a choose your own adventure meal so vegetarians are able to eat all the veggies, noodles, and fried dough as you can handle. It is all you can eat so I recommend ordering a little of everything in your first round and then ordering extras of your faves afterward. Definitely order the deep-fried plain buns. Trust me! They are delicious mini sweet buns served with condensed milk for dipping. I have to stop myself from eating too many of them. read more

I am not a hot pot expert but my wife is; I thought it was good but my wife thought it was "so-so." From the outside it looks like a condemned structure, inside it's a quaint little eatery. The tables are separated by plastic panels so it makes thing feel a little claustrophobic. It did't affect the rating. We sat down and quickly were set up with a table service. The both of us had the lunch special which included 5 ingredients and broth of our choice. I found it tasty but my wife who is a hot pot expert said while it was inexpensive, it was low quality. For me, it was good. Would I eat there again, I would. read more

5/5 - 10 if I could rate it that high. We visited Edmonton just for fun. I've always been a big fan of Hot Pots as we do it at home on special occasions. So I looked for one on Yelp in the Edmonton area and this place had the best reviews. I didn't really know what we were walking into. From the outside, it may seem like a sketchy place. But the moment we walked in, we were greeted and sat down at a table. This was around 5pm on a weekday so it wasn't too busy. But from the start the ladies there were helpful, personable, and very funny. There was a wide selection of choices. Great Dim Sum. And even ended with some desserts. The ladies came by from time to time asking how everything was - they were always on the ball. I'm extremely impressed. It was a little pricey, but I would've paid the same amount at some other restaurant that gave poor service for mediocre food. So this was worth every penny. My friend and I were saying how this was probably one of the greatest dining experiences we've ever had. I'm definitely bringing family & friends back here - and probably make a point to drive up to Edmonton just to eat here. read more

Great hot pot spot, go early. Good selection of meat, veggies and other options. Been here a couple of times since Hot pot Express downtown closed during Covid in March. Service is friendly, food is brought out fast and the place is cozy. I tried a couple of their soups and some are definitely better than others ex) spicy lamb with herbs way more flavorful than Tom Yum or Fungus. I found that single soup is better than duos (extra $1)as they tend to spill over and mix as you cook item in them. Meats and seafood were great though the salmon sashimi could have been better. Dumplings are awesome and appear made in house. Definitely will be back to try different soups and menu items. read more

All you need to know about Chili Hot Pot is: a) It's good b) 20% off if you go after 9 pm! Sweet deal. Regular $25, so only $20 after 9pm! Plus $2 for your choice of broth. Lots of cool ones to choose from. I went with a half and half option ($2.50): - Lamb in a spicy broth - Pork with apple slices Both were good but the lamb's spiciness took over and I couldn't taste much of the pork broth afterwards. If I were to do it again, I would just get one main broth and stick with it for the night. We ordered a ton of good food - selection is pretty decent and they even have a couple good random things you can get (I'm talking about salmon sashimi, lamb dumplings, fried rice with egg and green onion was tasty). Place was surprisingly not that busy for a Friday night (didn't even need to make reservations although we did). Service is on and off - they were pretty slow to bring out the good stuff...don't know if that was on purpose or not. Pretty good place and I like the deal after 9pm! Plus you get dessert at the end too (we had mango). OH - make sure you get a lemon ice tea ($2.50) - comes in awesome jar and definitely quenches your thirst. read more

Chili Hot Pot - Half/half broth ($2.50) - pork with apple slices (top) and lamb in a spicy broth (bottom) - Chinese Near Me - Edmonton, Alberta

It drives me crazy that this place doesn't do a late night special but I GET IT .... it's so good they don't have to! The quality of meat here is beyond any late night special that's running in this city. On top of that, their milk tea and in-house made iced tea is delicious. Then we have the service ... it's amazing. Absolutely perfect. The people working here are consistently welcoming and enjoyable to be served by. Sauces? Great. I don't know what they're doing to their bean curd but it is so good. Also, the included dessert of a strawberry pudding and mango pudding is a perfect way to end the meal. This is one AYCE that I enjoy on a regular basis. The value and quality is actually worth what you're paying here. read more

This is great hot pot at a price that is reasonable. First, food is fresh- they make their own fish balls, etc and put it in a neat "trough" that you can cut and push out to make your own size. Many sauces at one end of the restaurant. Meat is plentiful and seafood brought out in generous portions. V fast service to get refills of your hot pot stuff. Place is v busy so make reservations on weekends. Also they stay open late at night - always a good sign. Food service workers from other places often come here for their dinner after their shift. What could be a better endorsement? read more

During the few days of extreme cold in Edmonton, it was only appropriate to seek warmth at a hot pot restaurant. After hearing about this place from my parents, I think I have found my new favorite hot pot restaurant. It is always a great feeling to enjoy a warm satisfying lunch on such a cold day! Atmosphere: 3/5 On the outside, this restaurant appears quite unassuming, but it does have an open, comfortable, and clean environment inside. My only complaint is that the tables tend to be a bit too close together so there is not always enough room to place all of the food! There are carts next to the table though. Thankfully, the restaurant was not too busy so it was ok to use the carts. Several TVs and overall a quiet environment during the lunch hour. Parking can be difficult behind the restaurant so most tend to parallel park along the main road. Food: 4.5/5 I love the entensive selection of items which distinguishes Chili Hot Pot from other hot pot restaurants with lunch specials. The vegetable basket is a little smaller than other restaurants but the main entree sizes make up for it! The food was fresh, and I love the variety of sauces. Many soup bases to choose from and the soups themselves have a lot of ingredients as well in comparison to other restaurants. I usually end up getting the same few items in other restaurants but find that I can try many more things including hot dishes here! Service: 4/5 Attentive and friendly; efficient Price: 4/5 Very reasonable for the amount and quality of food Overall: 4/5 I really enjoyed this hot pot restaurant. Given the extensive selection for their lunch special, I would love to come back as I can mix and match many different items including soup bases. read more

I think the service here is top notch and I would come back here for that alone. The food was quite good and fresh...it was my first hot pot experience. I have no complaints except my own fault for order a too spicy soup. Careful with the Currys....when they say they are spicy they mean it. The lunch special is a great deal at 13.95 and I left super full. Friendly atmosphere and very clean restaurant. read more

This was my first time visiting chili hot pot and I was not disappointed! The selection of broths and sauces was so much more extensive than other places in the city. Also, the selection of meats and veggies was great and everything was fresh. The oysters were the size of my hand . The service was friendly and timely. A nice added touch was the water with lemon, lime, and cucumber. I would highly recommend the lamb broth... it was very tasty and had great depth of flavour. You can select one flavour broth or two for a few dollars extra. Well worth it for the variety. If you go after 9pm like we did there is also a late night special price. read more

Great soup bases, fresh components. You cook your food in the broth, dip it in a dizzying array of sauces (they'll help you figure it out), and eat it. Then drink your broth at the end with all those flavours cooked in. Fantastic place, friendly and helpful stuff. They even have a little robot cat on wheels that delivers your components. Easy recommend. Also stellar Milk Tea! read more

I come here often because the hubs loves hot pot. We have been here a couple of times for dinner with friends. After 9:00 pm it's 20 percent off which is a great deal, however I don't eat enough to justify hot pot ayce. I love coming here for lunch which is an amazing deal and oh so delicious. For 15.95 you get to pick 5 items including hot foods and it also comes with a free veggie basket. For $2 you can pick an extra soup or any additional items ($2 each). Their milk tea and lemon tea are sooo yummy! My favorite soups are the borscht and spicy lamb. I never finish my items but my hubby is always on top of it! read more

The hunnybunny had been craving hot pot for a couple of my visits to Edmonton, and despite my recent visit to Sichuan Province, China, I was ready to indulge. The concept was well explained, the dizzying array of flavorings made it feel like we were there for several meals, and the proteins choices were fresh, tasty, and plentiful. The hot tea was tasty, and the bunny loved the iced tea. Service was great, attentive, prompt, and continually helpful. Dirty dishes disappeared, fresh ones appeared magically. We left feeling more like family than customers. I'm sure we'll be returning, especially in the cold season :-) read more

So much fun! The place doesn't look like much on the outside but the second you walk in you know you've made the right choice.

It's not just a meal it's an experience. Very fun indeed. Will definitely go back again! read more

Just the most friendly servers you could imagine. When you walk in, the place is quite small - but very comfortable. Lets call it "cozy" ;) The servers will greet you with a smile and they recognize me every time after about my 3rd visit now (we go all the time!) They come to the table promptly and often and are absolutely adorable and funny. They are quick to help you select a spice-filled broth to get simmering while you select your buffet menu items on the provided menu. You tick off how many of each thing you'd like (2x sirloin beef, 1x chicken, 3 squid, 5 Golden Mushrooms, etcetc) The food comes out neat and tidy. The veggies are always very colourful, fresh and crisp. The sauce station is fun. Dozens of different condiments you can dish up in little dishes to dip your food in or even to spice up your broth. Hoisin, garlic, cilantro, leek flower, oyster sauce, chili sauce, chili oil, etc) Don't miss the famous iced tea. A big jar of flavourful sweet tea with fresh slices of lemon and mint. The perfect refresher for a steamy hot meal. A cool thing about Chili Hot Pot is that a lot of their hot items are included in the buffet price! A lot of other places around town charge extra (I love the curry squid, my friends love the deep fried buns!) I should also mention that they recently renovated the interior to be a little less cramped. Opening it up has helped a lot with the circulation and heat and I find it very comfortable now. As a tip, this isn't a place for kids/infants. There is no room for a pram or a car seat. read more

After Escaping a room at Escape City (down the road) we got our hunger on... Real bad. I knew I needed more than usual to fill my belly so my sister and I headed to Chili Hot Pot. The sign out front says 20% off after 9pm, we were there at 8:54pm sweet! Walking in we were immediately greeted by lovely smiling Asian ladies who sat us down instantly. The service here is wonderful! My sister who is full on vegan was looking at the broths and asked if any were vegan but unfortunately they were chicken base. She made vegetable broth for her instead, how awesome is that! I had the Coconut green Curry soup base which was extremely spicy (mouth watering with savory numbness). Our order were basically veggies but a few seafood here and there for myself. OMG we were full after 30 mins of eating. Our servers were surprised that we couldn't eat another bite let alone have dessert. Just waddling out of the restaurant thinking we are definitely coming back here. read more

Oh, my pet. The things I would do differently if only I knew then what I know now... First let me get this out of the way, the whole process was nearly flawless. I booked my reservation through Yelp reservations on the business profile page. It was flawless. O picked a time, got to add a special note that 5 out of the 6 of us are vegetarian. It sent me a text reminder to confirm/cancel my booking, I added my visit to my Google Cal and got a reminder text 30 minutes before the time. I was apprehensive, given I never spoke to anyone in person, that I wouldn't have the booking I requested. It worked perfectly. Knowing what I know now, here's how you do hot pot. 1- pick a broth. Then pick a second flavor broth for a buck more and do the 1/2 pot option. 2- pick stuff to boil in your broth kind of like a fondue, but the soup is yummy so you eat it as you go along. 3- get a crap ton of the little finger bowls, fill them with all of the 25 sauce options at the sauce station and spread them out all over the table. Wait for the broth to boil and the add-ins to arrive, try the lemon over tea on a jar it's awesome. Listen to the hostess recommendations for what to order, they know their stuff. Repeat, repeat. Service was really great, attentive, kind, friendly. Place had a really good vibe to it. All of the ingredients brought out were super crisp and fresh. We didn't get any meats but I saw the monstrous plates of thinly sliced rolls of beef being served. Cool. Next time, because we saved a menu, we marked the things we liked, to speed up the ordering process. We'll order the half / half pot with 2 flavours of broth, one on each side of a divided pot. All but 4 of the veggie broths are made with plain water instead of chicken stock, which took us a long time to understand we need to add everything ourselves to flavor the stock. 3 of us sat there mumbling 'the soup had no flavor...' Duh, you have to station or with their gazillion sauces and things. After we 'got it', the 3 plain ones tasted really great. The other 2 people got cream of broccoli soup and coconut curry soup, which were already flavored. Damn, son. Like I said, if I knew then, I could have spent more time enjoying the food, not preparing the broth. Mine still tasted amazing. They didn't charge extra because we had more than 500g of add-ins we didn't finish, as the menu states. We went well over our 2 hour seating limit, and weren't charged extra. All this is on the menu, but they were very understanding :) Loved this experience to death. We're already planning our next visit ;) read more

Chilli hot pot is great! I love the selection of stuff they have! Broth is delicious; try the spicy sate. Service is also on point.

If you haven't been to Chili's yet then you are absolutely missing out! This is by far my favourite go to Hot Pot when I visit Edmonton. With a base price of $25 per person and $3 per soup base (20% off after 9pm) you can't be beat. What make Chili Hot Pot stand out against the other hot pots around the Edmonton area is their location, service, and selection. When you look at Chili on the outside it may look like an old building that has been on the block for the longest time but when you set foot inside you'll not only be filled with the aroma of Chinese hot pot but you'll be greeted very promptly with a nice warming smile and "hello." Parking is a hit or miss. You'll be LUCKY if you can park in the front but if not you can test your luck at the back. If both locations are occupied then you'll have to do some driving around the block until you can find a non restricted free parking spots which there are a lot by the way. Chili has a great selection of beverage but what I found interesting is when you order water, it's not your typical basic glass/plastic cup filled with water and ice but a glass of water and ice topped with a mint, a slice of lemon, and a slice of cucumber. Detox water anyone? Their AYCE menu and selection is off the charts (no pun intended) although they do have a limit of how many you can order per round how I noticed is that I ordered 20 mushrooms and 60 lamb slices for example and I've gotten 6 mushrooms and 40 slices of lamb. It's probably a food safety issue, just in case someone orders a lot but not finish it they don't want it to go to waste, which is fine. Recommendation to try besides their fancy water is their deep fried lobster dumpling with mayo, long donut, and hot bun with condense milk - if you have good taste buds you'll thank me later. All together Chili Hot Pot is a +1 in my books and I'll come back soon when I visit Edmonton again. read more

Grade A- For lunch. Cannot go wrong with Chili Hot Pot. Good value. Tremendous selection of ingredients. Your lunch order comes with vegetables included ( Eg small basket of lettuce, pieces of squash and potato, etc). However no desert ice cream :( that comes with the meal.

Came to chili hotpot for dinner with my family of 5 I was able to make a reservation same day for 630 pm saturday which was very accomodating Seating was for 6 so even one more would ve able to fit :) but its always nice to have additional space for food First off you order drinks and your broth You have a bowl in front of you that is heated You can chose to have 1 broth or half half..there are over 20 choices spicy mild etc lota of flavourful choices from mushroom to lamb to tomato soup etc Than you order plates of food The concept is sharing You check off what youd like on a paper You dont need to write down how many of each item youd like to order just put a check mark..the staff know how much is needed based on the amount of people at your table but if not everyone will eat the item just let them know only 1 person portion The sliced beef is very popular and cooka extremely fast. The meatballs are unreal. Handmade shrimp balls are great. Mushrooms are delicious. Etc They also have some hot food items. I dont recommend the dry ribs- but the green onion cakes are amazing and the spring rolls are vietnamese style (pork) I seen tables get rice etc You can also get raw potato or noodles or even trype That being said sashimi is also an item on the menu! (Salmon) The bowls you cook everything in are a tad on the personal size -so big enough to throw some dumpling and meat in and wait to cook (only a few min) There is a SAUCE station! You can choose sauces to dip foods into (hosain is my fave) spicy mild etc even peanuts or chilis They do not have a menu but they have a jellow consistency pudding (mango or berry or coconut) you can each have two (theyre small but perfect size) we ended up getting all 3 lol the waitress and waitor were really really nice. Service was excellent Note:if your broth is getting low and evaporating due to the heat (make sure your heat sits at 500.. 700 is a little too high) they will bring water to fill your pop constantly throughout the evening You can order more than one paper if you finish your first order Location is very close to whyteave on 72 ave and 104 st (calgary trail) -parking is street parking and the restaurant is right beside a homeless drop in centre which has never been a problem for me and people i know but if you have some stuck up friends be aware and ditch those friend Price is very reasonable especially for all you can eat! Indoors is a tad crammed but you still feel comfortable eating there. If you over order food they have trays to place beside your table Enjoyed our experience -would recommend read more

No.1 Chinese Dimpsum restaurants in town. Hopefully will reopened soon. Even takeout only.

Huge variety of seafood, meats, veggies, soup bases, and even salmon sashimi! Their iced tea in a jar is a must try! Best i ever tried. They charge extra for a soup broth though. The earlier you come, the better as it fills up very quick. The owner is a lovely lady always being there and attending every table. Oh, and their sauce station is great too! You can mix whichever sauce you like. read more

Service is excellent, always taking the empty plates and refilling drinks/hot pots. Make sure you have a reservation, it is very busy. The best thing is their homemade items, especially the DUMPLINGS and the meatballs. I find that the mash (in the chutes) are a bit mushier than the homemade meat balls. Love all the cooked food as well, deep fried items are piping hot when they bring it out to you. The dessert is SO GOOD! Mango and green tea pudding (one of each!), I would probably pay to eat that separately in another setting. I can't wait to visit this place again, it is my favourite hot pot restaurant in Edmonton. read more

Love, love, love Chili Hot Pot! At first I thought it was oddly named, but after trying their Sichuan soup broth I can definitely see where it's coming from - that stuff was SPICY. Perfect for stuffed noses and chilly winter nights! From the outside, this place doesn't look like much, but when you enter it has a nice, cozy feeling and the staff is ridiculously friendly. They are super attentive and really made us feel welcomed there. The service was reasonably quick (we got there right after it opened, so I think they were still getting everything set up) and the restaurant filled up very quickly. The menu is quite extensive and very dangerous if you go in hungry. The portions were huge and I definitely was eating with my eyes and over ordered food. My partner and I were struggling to finish what we ordered, oops!, and there is a charge for any surplus food over 500 g. The ingredients were all very fresh and everything came out within a 5 minute span of each other. A minor complaint is that the sauce making station isn't as extensive as I like, but that's just nit picking. Also, the ventilation isn't quite as good as some other places (ie. Urban Shabu) so you will leave palpably smelling like hot pot, which isn't such a big sacrifice for such yummy food. Plus, they gave us a $5 off coupon for our next visit at the end of our meal, which was awesome! Like I need another excuse to come to hot pot... Leave the nice clothes behind and come wearing stretchy pants - you're going to need them! read more
