    The wait is still as long as it used to be! Love that they now serve AYCE durian As always, the waitstaff is patient and explanatory. Their menu did change a bit, sad they no longer have fried shumai . Their new appetizer was decent. Everything we ordered was fresh! FYI- if your order did not come, check with them before ordering again! We made that mistake but they were nice and did not charge extra

    This AYCE hot pot experience is fantastic if you order all of their expensive items and come with an empty stomach. The AYCE lasts two hours and is $64 per person, but it's a minimum of two people per party. The service is fantastic and someone will come around to check periodically to see if you want to order more food. The broth selections are pretty unique compared to other hot pot spots I've been to. Loved various fresh ingredients they have available. They do offer you to choose one of the five premium ingredients, which I think the lobster or the geoduck is the way to go. Order a lot of premium beef. I went ham on the dragonfruit shrimp paste. They also serve fresh durian, which I love. Also don't sleep on their house made boba tea or lemon tea drink.

    Located in Brooklyn, this AYCE and AYCD spot is a hotpot lover's dream. This spacious restaurant has lots of tables and booths for parties of different sizes to enjoy hot pot together. You should also try to get your name on the reservation list ahead of getting here (you can do it online!) as it tends to have a wait. Here, you can get not only hot pot, but also skewers and sashimi. So you can bet that we also ordered skewers and sashimi. The skewers were juicy and huge portions, and the sashimi had a large variety and was pretty fresh. All of the ingredients for the hot pot were great quality and it was so good. There's so many options and premium seafood options as well. Love the desserts and appetizers that you can get too! Would highly recommend to anyone who loves hot pot.

    I thought it was alright , it's worth a try but I wouldn't regularly go back. It's not my fav for hotpot, the food tasted decent and nothing came out as super delicious. They do have a lot of seafood, more than any of the local ones in Brooklyn. Service was decent, they were super busy so food didn't come out that quick

    Food, service, quality, value, vibes everything about this place was 10/10 delicious and fresh. This is an all you can eat place where the hot for each person is $60, the drinks off the menu are separate. There's bottled water, green tea and other drinks available included in the all you can eat price. You can also order appetizers - we got a few crunchy things to balance out the hot pot softer pieces. The most amazing part is the big feature meat you get to choose. We got lobster which came already broken up into pieces we could easily cook. We tried so many things between 3 of us. Highly recommend this experience. Loved the vibes and food. Would definitely come here again.

    My favorite spot to go to after exploring Dyker Heights! It's $70pp AYCE hotpot+sashimi and they have a good selection of meats and seafood along with other appetizers. They also have a fridge of various free drinks and fruits. Their sashimi is fresh and the service is quick and friendly. They also give you one premium dish for free of either lobster, sea cucumber, or sashimi platter. Definitely recommend coming to this place if you're deep in Brooklyn!! They also have a nice waiting area with snacks.

    What an absolutely amazing hot pot. Here is the nitty gritty. 1. Yes it's expensive. At $62.99 it's pricey 2. Yes it's worth it if you eat a decent amount of the super fresh sashimi and order lots of crab legs, fresh beef which is some of the best quality I've had and drink the really rich soup broth 3. Yes there is a very long wait as they've gained some popularity. but it's worth the wait 4. Yes you can order fresh (frozen) durian as much as you want The food was the star of the show. Lobster is one of the main specialties. You can order it once but you have a choice of 1. Sashimi or sushi platter (skip this you can order that with your regular buffet as part of the ayce) 2. Geoduck which honestly I don't find to be all that amazing but hey. Who am I to judge. 3. A few other specialty dishes but I can't recall them. 4. We went with the whole live lobsters. Food was insanely fresh. The beef is some of the best hotpot beef I've had. The broths were amazing. All meats and seafoods were of exceptional quality. All in all if you're looking to splurge at a hotpot this is the place.

    If you're in Brooklyn and craving an all-you-can-eat premium hotpot experience, look no further than Chong Qing Wharf! For just $63.95 per person, you get everything--rich soup broths, the freshest seafood , high-quality meats, appetizers, sashimi, vegetables, desserts, and even free fruit tea! Oh, and did we mention the unlimited durian? From melt-in-your-mouth sashimi to live shrimp cooked fresh at your table, the variety here is endless. Plus, the service? Absolutely top-notch! Tag your hotpot crew and make your reservations now--you don't want to miss this feast!

    Great hotpot place in Brooklyn !! Loved their unlimited seafood and durian!!! Gets overcrowded on the weekends

    Hot pot lovers? There's a place for you. Right here! Fresh oysters! Flavorful pieces of salmon! Razor clams! Clams! Crab legs! Fresh lobster! You name it! They got it! We came here with our friends, who are regulars at this place. My God! The seafood is unbelievable! You can refill almost everything, including oysters. Only lobster is not allowed to repeat. I ate so much! I went for oysters, clams, razor clams and salmon. Those were my favorite. Can you believe they have durian here? We got that for our dessert. My goodness, is there anything else they want to offer in the back? Do you think they have jellyfish? Oh my, they have that too! I was only kidding! Should I ask for sharks or penguins? I hope not because I don't eat big fish. We loved it here and definitely will return to have either the same things or more. Also the best part is getting the right broth. There were about 6 broths and we ordered 2 types, spicy and tomato. Both were fantastic. The place has plenty of tables. They allow 2 hours for all-you-can-eat. So we ate all we could. That's the rule. Parking is available, but it is better to get street parking because they call you to move your car if you block another car. Excellent seafood and service. Yummy!

    12/2023 If you are a seafood lover, this place is a must! Went in a group of 7 on a weekday after work, no wait time. Paid $75 per person including taxes and tips. So many seafood options, to consume raw and to be cooked in the hotpot. I really liked the variety and amount of seafood offered, but the broth was lacking flavor. I've had more flavorful broths and you'll definitely need your dipping sauce for this place. Even durian is included in the price. I am not a fan of durian, but my friends loved it but I was told durian is not being offered anymore.

    Mantis shrimp, mixed seafood, oysters. All very high quality

    Side notes: Happy July 4th. I requested Chinese to be added to the listing to match Haidilao/etc. Also, if you pay cash, you get a free fruit tea. 2 people minimum per table. Anyway, I was at this hot pot place earlier in the evening with 3 others. It was quite crowded as I've heard and it took us maybe 20 minutes or so to get seated. The buffet outside of kids based on height costs $62.99 per person which sounds like it's a bit pricey but for the quality of the food, I think it's more than worth it. I would also like to give a shoutout to the servers here compared to every other AYCE hot pot I've been to. They answer questions regarding how long some stuff should be cooked, provided more utensils and other things when needed, and cleaned up things very quickly. This made the experience already better regardless of the excellent food quality. For the hot pot, the area is big enough for two broth options and we went with the Coconut and Chicken one which had some Chinese herbs and jujube inside along with a Tom Yum broth with the latter being my preference with a bit of spice along with some sourness and sweetness but both of them were tasty in their own right though maybe a bit less flavored than some other spots. Outside of these options, there is a spicy green peppercorn pot (for the full Chongqing mala experience,) a Chinese medicinal herb one, a mushroom one, a spicy butter one, and I believe one with fish bladder and chicken or something somewhere. The sauce bar had all the staples though some of the labels weren't that legible and I created a mix with chili crisp, fermented tofu/doufurou, shacha sauce, scallion oil, sesame oil, some more chili powder, and garlic. Along with the options, there's also free drinks and I picked up a Chinese herbal tea and eventually a soy milk eventually. For the stuff not cooked in the hot pot, the sashimi was surprisingly good quality. The salmon was excellent with large flavorful pieces, the mini shrimp/amaebi were very tasty, and the other people enjoyed the octopus. The raw crab was very tasty, the skewers were fine with the tofu pocket being the best, the jellyfish salad was fine (could have used more sesame,) and the raw oysters were good. For the barely cooked/pre-prepared options, the tendon was delicious and was very quickly cooked in 10 seconds or so. There was also braised quail eggs which were nice. The fishball and meatballs were both very nice with the most unique and tasty option being the dragon fruit fishball which added an extra bite of sweetness. I am presuming there was shrimp and some type of fish outside of said fishballs and we liked them both. The meatballs were nice and bouncy once cooked. For hotpot meat options, everything was tasty though I would say the seafood is a bit better. The pork belly and beef were all nice and thinly cut so they cooked quickly with the only one I didn't like being the tongue as it was a bit too chewy as I think it was cut thicker. The flavored beef was probably the star being thicker but also being very tender. The boneless chicken feet had a fun texture as well and cooked nicely in said hotpot. The star is of course the seafood from unlimited abalone (how,) and conch to a variety of shrimp ranging from large ones to mantis to small ones which were all fresh and tasty. There was also some excellent crab legs with plenty of meat though they were a bit harder to open with the provided nutcrackers helping a lot. You are also given an option for one larger plate and we chose the lobster over the geoduck or sushi/sashimi platter (there was also a fourth option but I don't remember. The lobster we ordered was delicious with it being partially cracked which was appreciated of course as it made it easy to eat meat from the tougher to get to areas. Along with everything else mentioned, they have unlimited durian which is an unexpected delicious addition here. It's frozen of course and the durian is monthong and not musang king but for included durian, I have no complaints at all. I would recommend as the server said also to order them maybe 15 minutes before you plan on eating them so that they fully frost and get a better texture. There's also other desserts that you can order separately for extra and if you pay with cash, you can get a free fruit tea with a wide variety of flavors. Yes the price point is high but it's very much worth it. I'm usually not the biggest hot pot person but places like this might convert me to going to them more. They are crowded for a very good reason. Go here.

    The staff were so friendly and efficient. Our server, Andy, was the best! He was informative and helpful with what to order. Despite being so busy in the evening, he took his time with us and made us feel at home. He provided one of the best hospitality experiences at an AYCE hotpot! The ambiance was modern but loud. Very busy, not a lot of space to walk through, juggling through other customers and staff. The typical hotpot ingredients were yummy. The seafood was so fresh! I think I had more seafood than meat/veggies! With the amount of seafood I consumed, I think I ate my worth. With a party of six, the total cost was ~$500 (with tip & tax), $84 per person. A bit pricey but it's worth it if you never been here before! I had such a good time. Good company, good vibes.

They had angus beef (great for me as I prefer my beef leaner) and spicy beef. The spicy beef was ok, idea sounded better than it tasted but it wasn't too bad. The service was pretty decent except a few items I ordered were forgotten and we had to remind them about it. Overall a great experience!

I've never had actual live shrimp before and will admit was a little nervous when they started jumping around. The star of the show is the fresh crab, offering a luxurious taste without the hefty price tag. For a sashimi lover on a budget, the quality here is a pleasant surprise, rivaling that of more expensive sushi bars. It's a delightful experience to enjoy high-quality sashimi without the worry of overspending. Wrapping up the meal, the brown sugar grass jelly with peanut and mango dessert is a standout. It's rare to find such a sophisticated and satisfying dessert at an AYCE restaurant. This sweet finale is not just an afterthought but a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality across the board.
