We recently celebrated a friend's birthday here, and they kindly gave us a private room to enjoy our meal, which made the celebration even more special! This was my second visit, and it definitely didn't disappoint. The food came out incredibly fast, and the service was just as impressive. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. My only small critique is that I wish the portion sizes were a bit more consistent. However, the selection of hot pot ingredients were definitely more on the interesting side like they had abalone and blue crab! The taro sweet potato balls were absolutely to die for! I only wish they were served with a scoop of ice cream--they would've been even more amazing. Overall, it's a great spot for gatherings. There's a dessert shop right next door if you're craving something sweet afterward, and parking was surprisingly easy. I'd definitely come back again! read more

Dragon Pot - Hot pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Richfield, Minnesota

He Said: Really happy to see more Asian restaurants opening in Richfield. This conveniently located hot pot restaurant is connected to a ramen, matcha, and bakery shop (maybe the same owners...). There is ample seating space and I sat down, immediately. Ordering is simple-- everything is done on a tablet. There is a small but good fruit/salad/sauce bar. I am not a big hot pot person, but I liked this place. Pros: Very speedy service. They have robot waiters! Lunch price is really reasonable Do not sleep on the fruit or cold salad options Cons: The broths were all kind of watered down. After every "top off", the broths started to taste the same. read more

Service was quick so we never had to wait long between food. Selection of hotpot food was not bad as well, but wish there was ice cream on the menu. There is a dipping sauce bar and there are also some fruits although they felt a little stale. We were there to celebrate a birthday and had 8 people and were seated in a private room with a round table which was nice. read more

A smaller place compared to other places we've been to! We got seating pretty fast from the waiting list but it's because most people have to share tables. So, if you want bigger space to yourself, this might not be the best to go for you! Appetizers were really yummy with good options (mostly Asian but you can also get French fries and stuff)! Sesame balls are definitely worth to try! No dessert other than fruits. Lots of seafood options. Some of the meatballs are a lil interesting with sauce/mayo fillings. And we weren't a fan of those. Service was good but it was weird that we paid before being seated including tips. I personally prefer the Sichuan broth but if you are not good with spices, Korean seafood broth is a good option! We also ordered from a tablet for meat and vegetables so that made things easier. read more

We went to Dragon Pot for dinner and had a great experience! We made reservations ahead of time due to having a large group and was seated in a party room. Staff were friendly and attentive. The food was also fantastic. Loved that we were able to have multiple different soup bases for the table to try and the different options for toppings and noodles. It was a generous amount of food per order and loved that this was an all you can eat to try different options. There is a sauce bar with some other appetizer items available. read more

Dragon Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Richfield, Minnesota

Our favorite spot in the cities for Hot Pot. They have the best Tom Yum broth out of the Twin Cities all-you-can-eat hot pot locations. I will say the dining area is smaller than other spots but it's easier to have conversation and there's less people to bump into or walk around. When they're busy there's definitely a chance of a wait for seating but they have some nice bakeries/sweet treat shops nearby to browse while you wait. It gets a little dirty on the floors when they're busy but that's expected when people are left to cook for themselves during a dinner rush - just let them know if something is bothering you and they will take care of it. We also love that it's hot pot ONLY so there's no smoky oil smell on you when you leave and the air doesn't burn your eyes from people burning their food/grills because they don't exist here :) I love that we can order on the iPad and control when we order another round of food and don't have to bother our server each time or try to catch them while they're busy. They have a good selection of items on the sauce bar for making your own hot pot sauces, wide variety of items on the menu, and a good handful of broth selections ranging from very mild to spicy/numbing (the Tom Yum is equally as spicy as the Szechuan just more hot than numbing). There are spaces for larger parties, and tables that can accommodate couples and families. Great spot for a hot pot beginner-they help you figure it out along the way, or your more experienced hot pot-er where they just drop off the iPad for ordering and let you enjoy yourself and the experience. We love Dragon Pot! read more

I would say Dragon Pot is "Fun" Dining not necessarily "Fine" dining and that is just fine by me. We received a nice welcome , we were seated promptly and enjoined the entire pot experience...ordering all kinds of ingredients. I must say that I found this restaurant and the women's restroom surprisingly quite clean. I believe it would be super fun to use one of their private dining areas for a table of 6-8. When we left a staff person at the hostess desk asked if we had a good experience... great job Dragon Pot. read more

I have been to Dragon Pot twice since they opened earlier this year. I love the variety of broth options and dishes. Including items like "rainbow noodles" that I haven't seen at any other hot pot restaurants in the Twin Cities area. I also think it's great that drinks are included too! Most hot pot places I have been to charge extra for soft drinks. Being able to order dishes off the tablet is an added bonus, seems to cut down on the wait time for items. read more

I made reservations for my sister in law's birthday for a party of 7. We got a room which was spacious, clean, and beautiful! I'm glad it was separate, so for future reference I think I would go with a bigger group. I'd say the price is reasonable for a weekend all you can eat dinner and all the meat tasted fresh. The service was great and also it was pretty cool having the robot bring out our orders. I really enjoyed the sauce bar and how we can split up to 3 different soup bases. I look forward to brining my mom here for her birthday, she loves hot pot. read more

Dragon Pot - Our spread - Hot Pot Near Me - Richfield, Minnesota

My new fav Hot Pot in the twin cities! It's all-you-can-eat but a bit spendy at $35 per adult so I'll try to come in for a weekday lunch next time when it's $25. I love that you can choose 2 or 3 different broths in the same pot. The Thai Tom Yum broth was so tasty - highly recommend. However, it was a little bit spicy so we chose the less spicy miso broth as our second option. Both were delicious. Our favs were: Sliced Beef Belly Scallops Shrimp Dumplings Sesame Balls Jumbo Shrimp Special Sauce (this house sauce was better than any sauce I've ever made myself) Service was just ok. Someone was always nearby if we needed help, but some were not as friendly as others. Ordering was primarily through an iPad interface, so it was efficient and accurate. Ambiance was minimalist, clean and modern. I noticed they had 4 private rooms that could accommodate 8 people at a round table (2 pots per table). read more

All you can eat hot pot with a 2 hr time limit. Parking is decent. It's in between the ramen shop and Tous Les Jours. You pay up front, place your order on a tablet and the food gets sent to you on a cute robot. They had a pretty big selection to choose from, but you can't customize the spice level if you're looking at the Szechuan broth. They have a good selection of dipping sauce ingredients and even have premixed ones (I got it but didn't end up trying the premixed hot pot sauce but the people I went with said it was too sweet). It's nice and clean, the bathrooms give 2000s club vibes lol, they have this cool sky lights above a section of seating that even has constellations. I liked that they also had rooms for bigger parties. We had gotten there early so we were seated at our own table but those that came later were put with other parties for the longer tables. I can't really find anywhere that has the prices but we went on Presidents Day during lunch but ended up paying $34.99 pre tax (it said dinner but I'm not sure if there's a difference). Overall, I'd recommend it. They have a good playlist going (all time pop on YouTube, I asked lol), clean, good atmosphere and good selection. read more

The meat quality is okay here, but the seafood really makes up for it. This is the only place where I've had abalone that is actually good! The drinks are also included with your meal, but don't drink too much! There's also a little robot that comes out to serve some of your orders. Cute! The sauce bar in the back is also convenient. Only thing I did notice is that one of the staff members who worked in the front was in the bathroom when I was there, and he didn't wash his hands after using the toilet. read more

Dragon pot is the best hot pot I've been to! We stopped in on a Sunday with my parents who had never tried hot pot before. I was impressed with the cleanliness and the variety of options there were. I liked the seating and there seemed to be plenty of space to enjoy our meal. We tried three soup bases, one being spicy. It was super easy to select what we wanted to order on the iPad, and the food came out on the robot carts. The sauce bar was nice, although kinda hard to see what sauces were there -- a little disorganized. We tried a ton of appetizers, meats, veggies, seafood and noodles. Flavors were good, no complaints. We even stopped next door for matcha ice cream after our meal. A fun dining experience for the whole family! read more

My friend and I walked in at 11:30am on a Sunday without a reservation and had no problem getting a solo table for just the two of us. We paid immediately upon checking in at the front desk as it's all you care to enjoy. We were then greeted at our table right away and the server helped us pick which two broths we wanted. The server then walked us through how to order items from the iPad at a table and we were off to the races! Or so we thought... after a few minutes of the broths still being room temp we found out they didn't have the hot pot turned on for us. I was able to reach under the table and turn it on, but how strange it wasn't set up ready to go for us. The vibe is clean and modern. Be aware that you could be sharing a long table with another party if the place were to fill up. It's 4 seats to one hot pot. We enjoyed the Mushroom and the Thai Tom Yum broths. We were told the Thai Tom Yum wasn't that spicy, but be warned it is spicy! All our vegetables and pork were fresh and delicious (meat and wontons come out frozen). We weren't rushed which let us enjoy the meal to the fullest. The cutest little robot cat beings out your dishes as you order them, and you have to take them off the robot's shelves as it gets delivered to your table. This is such a fun gem to have in Richfield. read more

So happy to have a hot pot place in this area! It is all you can eat, and you pay in the front. $25 for lunch (Mon - Fri 11am-3:30pm) and dinner is $35. For the private rooms, you have to call and make a reservation (party of 8 or more only) and all the other tables are walk in only! You have a 2 hour limit with a good number of bases to choose from! I would recommend the Korean seafood! Kimchi and Tom Yum were good, a bit too sour for my liking. Szechuan was not my favorite but if you like that numbing spice, I highly recommend that one! You get free soda (Pepsi products) included. There is a sauce bar and some fruit in the back! While this is not the most amazing hot pot I've had, I'll gladly take it! The quality of the beef were pretty good, I recommend the beef brisket & beef belly! And the vegetables were mostly fresh! It would be nice if they had a dessert option in the back as well! Again, overall, this is a decent spot for hot pot! read more

Saw this through instagram and TikTok so decided we really needed to stop by and check it out. First off it's located near several newer restaurants in the area. There is a decent amount of parking but it gets taken up quickly because in this strip mall is 4 great places to try out in a row. When you get in you put your name on a tablet waiting list. The restaurant is not super big so expect to wait a little bit. Staff is very nice and service is super quick. They have a couple of the robots that will bring out items to your table. These robots are aware of their surrounding and will avoid hitting people and other objects . I saw other robot hit its break as someone walked in front of it. You do pay ahead before you sit down and then you can order up to 3 broths. We tried Korean kimchi, Japanese miso and Szchuan spicy . All were very good. Just remember that Szechuan spicy is very spicy. The Korean kimchi is not that spicy. The Japanese miso tastes super good The meat options are very good and same with veggies. Somethings that are unique includes abalone, kitten paws (shrimp cakes in shape of paws) , fortune pouches, roe filled fish balls and more. I liked the selection of apps you can get like sesame balls, spring rolls, French Frieda and pumpkin dumplings. Wouldn't mind going back again but the restaurant does feel super cramp. read more

First time tonight. Overall very good: food, service, decor. Just get rid of the obnoxious robots.

Walked in around 6:30 on a Thursday and was able to be seated right away. By the time we left, there was a bit of a line to get in. Parking was easy! You pay before you eat. Staff was very efficient and helpful. Tables are large and looks like groups may be sat together? You order off of a tablet. You can choose three broths. We got tom yum, their original, and the mushroom. Honestly I couldn't tell the difference as they weren't super flavorful. The sauce bar was good, though it would have been nice to have suggested receipts. The ingredient selection was impressive! read more

Finally some good hot pot in Minneapolis. Very well priced and the broth was actually good. We have tum yum, spicy tomato, kimchi, miso bases. When we came with a large group, they had a difficult time fulfilling our order. We came here on a separate occasion as a group of 4 and it was much easier to get the add ons served. There's a little self serve area for salads and also next door a matcha ice cream shop. We had a great experience read more

So glad there's a solid ayce hotpot place in the area and I don't have to drive all the way to St.Paul or BP for one. I came with a group of 7 on a Friday night and we were seated in one of the private rooms without reservation. There were two pots in this room, which was nice. Food: You order from a tablet. They required that we ordered three broth, so we got the original, sichuan spicy, and tom yum. All three broth were great, but my fave was surprisingly the tom yum. It was a little sour, but also full of flavors. Portions for each order were also decent. Ingredients are typical of ayce hot pot places, so I expected some stuff to be frozen. They also have an array of appetizers too. The fries were actually very good, as well as rice cakes. The sauce bar was a decent size, with what you need to make a good dipping sauce. There were also other things such as fruits, kimchi, seaweed, and trotters! You know it's legit when they have trotters. Service: You have someone come pour the broth, but most of our dishes were delivered by the robot. Overall, I would love to go back! read more

So we wanted to try something new on Christmas Eve instead of cooking like we normally would. After days of cooking and hosting Christmas Day the next day who wants more dishes right?! We we knew we wanted Asian but what kind. My sister had never tried Hotpot before so that sounded like a great thing to expose her to for a special day. Dragon Pot was a very nice, well ventilated place. Clean and the team was very nice and welcoming, answered questions and explained everything well. I mention well-ventilated because our family had been to another hotpot place a couple of years ago and when we went in the air was so spicy that we all started coughing because it was burning our lungs. All of us LOVE spice but the air was thick with it. That was not the case here and that made it a much better place experience for us. Each table gets a tablet so you can just order everything you want on the tablet and it comes out either with a robot delivery (cute) or a team member. They have a lot of great choices from meats to veggies to noodles and broth. We chose 3 broths (spicy, miso, and peppercorn). We tried an array of meats and veggies (loved the daikon, potatoes, mushrooms and broccoli), noodles and dumplings, and fried dough etc. We really loved the miso broth! We also utilized the sauce bar as well which had a nice selection as well as some sides (kimchi, seaweed salad, pickled cucumbers, and some others). Everything was fun and filling and it was a very good experience. My one suggestion is having some tongs because they provide a slotted spoon and a regular spoon (only one for the table which is challenging honestly with 4 people) but it is REALLY difficult to get things like noodles out or things that fall to the bottom (potatoes, daikon etc). If you havent done something like this before don't hesitate to try it out! You won't feel out of place or unwelcome and the team is great about explaining things if you aren't sure. And it's fun too! read more

I met up some family for hot pot at this new restaurant. It's all you can eat. Pay at the counter ter and once you're seated you can order what kind of broth and sides for the hot pot. There's also a sauce and dessert station in the back to mix. There were some spicy peanuts that tasted amazing, maybe I was just hungry?? Anyway the crew will bring out the pot, consistent of 3 different compartments if you choose 3 different broths. Then a robot cart will bring out the meats and veggies you choose for the hot pot. This restaurant is pretty nice, private rooms available. Large tables to accommodate big parties. And also the ceiling has stars. Definitely recommend this place to eat, it is soup season. read more

Soft opening so not as busy. Has private room for large groups. Slightly more expensive than other AYCE hot pot places but there are abalones, large red Argentinian shrimps, shrimp paste that you turn into shrimp balls, and three broth options. Sodas included in the price. Part of the same management as two other eateries next door, Kyo Matcha and Kajiken Ramen. read more

Of the three hotpot places I've ventured to in MN, this is a standalone spot. For the food- being all you can eat with a variety of options is great. The meat is cut same day so it does not have a dull taste. The same goes for the veggies that are cut fresh same day. The service is fast with multiple servers checking in as well as the CatBot to deliver the meat. Inside is very clean, neat, and well maintained. Overall, DragonPot is worth checking out if you are going for a date, with a small group (4-6) or even a large group (8+) with its private rooms. Great hotpot spot. read more

Hands down one of the BEST places you can grab hotpot in MN.

We went in as a party of 6. Got a room. They literally came in and asked us if we were leaving yet after an hour.

While the concept of robot-assisted service was intriguing, the hot pot experience here was disappointing. The ingredients tasted artificial and chemically, with an unpleasant broth that had a funky aftertaste. Service was confusing, with inconsistent use of robots and human servers, leading to forgotten or delayed ingredients. Everything was excessively salty, overpowering the natural flavors. The pleasant ambiance wasn't enough to make up for the poor food quality and disorganized service. With improvements to ingredient quality, broth recipes, and service coordination, this restaurant could offer a much better dining experience. In this place you pay upfront and pay a tip upfront as well. read more

Excellent hot pot with variety of choices. Great service s as well. Definitely be back, give them a try.

What a welcome addition to Richfield-!!! I wasn't sure what to expect but it was good and fun!! A lovely gal explained everything to us (took a little while to sink in) and then I noticed the little robots! ! Not only a gimmick as some people may think, but very helpful overall-!! First off, the beautiful menu was not only informative, but definitely functional because it gave you the cooking times for each item! I picked the miso broth, which was some of the best type ever had!! Admittedly, it took a little time to get used to the Cooking requirements, but we were just having fun also!! Love the food!! (just give me udon noodles, and I am in hog heaven.) so nice to be able to try a lot of different things as the portions are just the right size so that you're able to have a few different ones!! Staff are very nice and very helpful and keep checking in just to make sure everything's going well!! I really appreciated that!! Now I can't wait to take everybody I know!! But for now, tomorrow it's on to Kajiken for lunch!! That'll be two down and one to go!! I think this is the beginning of a very long and wonderfully satisfying relationship!! And only a couple of minutes from my house!! How great is that gonna be in the winter time!! read more
