Great spot for Taiwanese-style individual hot pot near USC. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and very solo-dining friendly, and ordering is easy with a check-off menu. The hot pots are a great deal at $17.99 -- generous portions with meat, veggies, rice, and noodles, and the broth gets more flavorful as it cooks. We also liked the skewers and small bites, and the shot cocktails were fun to share. Affordable, comforting, and perfect for a quick meal after class or work. I'll definitely be back. read more

clean, spacious hotpot place. parking can be rough when the plaza is busy. similar to boiling point so it's definitely a decent alternative. service is ok,, can be a little slow sometimes. the popcorn chicken is actually pretty good and i always get the beef soup. great place to dine as a usc student. pot of cha is also right next to it so great for dessert after food read more

Been working nearby for a few years and I only just last week made it in. I'd slap myself because I had a good experience. Been here twice. The first time was take out. Enjoyed it enough, that the second time (see pics) I ate there. I walked over from work but parking in the area is tight. It's on the corner where Noshinoya is so if you know the lot, then you know it'll be challenging. I don't know what the street restrictions are or if you can park in other plazas and just walk over - something you'll have to figure out for you. Walked in (2nd time) and was immediately seated. Lots of students seemed to waltz in while we were there (coworkers). Service was ok. Order taken. Order delivered. Follow up with refills and closed with the bill. Looked like it was just one person for the FOH. Didn't need to ask for much except to go boxes. One of my coworkers ordered too much food. Good was good. A few of the skewers were slightly overcooked. But not to the point that I felt like sending it back. You can tell from the pics. The ribs. The chicken wings. The rest were good and I'd order them again. The ribs and wings only if they're not dry and well well done. Check out the prices - reasonable too. Upbeat music playing in the place. Not so loud we all couldn't hear one another. Didn't look around to see if a large party can be accommodated so call ahead. I never knew this place existed but now that I do, and so close to work, I'll more than likely be a regular soon. read more

Inside clean and nice, service was average. Hotpot was good, wish meat was more tender. Corn seemed a little old (like not fresh). I really enjoyed the spicy pickle lamb broth - perfect spice and flavor for a cold night. Another note: wish booths were closer to the tables. I felt far. Would come again, want to try the side dishes too! read more

I found this place because I work close by and I'm just tired of everything that's near me so I'm trying all kinds of other places it's been so cold inside of the office. I thought having a hot pot would be good and you know what it is good and it's a generous portion. I was greeted warmly Taken care of very quickly. I had questions they were answered they to kill me very well there. I'll definitely go back and try more food there. It was good and everybody at work was like what you get so I will keep you posted on my next review but if you're looking for something that's good Fresh and got good flavors. This is your spot. There was a lot of different things you could've ordered too by looking at the menu you can take a look. I feel like it's a place that's better with like companies so that you can try different things. Anyhow it was good and the portion was a nice size. I'm happy. read more

Great food! Very unique dining experience with very cool design and presentation elements! Love the sauce on the dishes

This is easily our most favorite hot pot restaurant! We drive here almost every week coming from Woodland Hills and it's worth every minute in traffic. I love their Sichuan Mala Hotpot for the variety, quantity, and flavor. I especially love their promo deal on drinks. The service is always amazing even when it seems like they're short staffed. The decor, ambiance, and music is very cool too. We always leave here very happy and full! read more

This place is very similar to boiling point. Taste wise it's a bit lacking. The beef hot pot i got lacked flavor, the broth was pretty bland. The sauces are also pretty limited here and they serve it to you instead of it being self served. However, the alcohol is pretty cheap here. I think id be back to try the skewers but the hot pot was underwhelming to say the least read more

FIG's Corner - Asian Fusion Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Boiling Point is better, but this is pretty solid, especially for the area around USC! The portion is relatively large and there's a decent amount of broth. I got the Golden Broth Beef Hot Pot and if you can tolerate a bit of spice, the flavoring is well-balanced between spicy and salty without being overpowering in one way or another. Service can be REALLY slow and sometimes you have to chase down servers. This place is great for when you have the hot pot craving but I probably wouldn't make a whole trip out of it, if that makes sense? read more

FIG's Corner - Asian Fusion Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Located in a small strip mall close to USC, Fig's Corner is a fairly large restaurant serving hot pot, boba, seafood, and skewers. They also have a decently sized alcohol menu. This spot is great to go to with friends because it's got a decent variety and they're doing BOGO on non-alcoholic drinks. Overall, I thought everything my friends & I ordered was quite good and we liked the variety of food that came in our hotpot. We especially enjoyed how refreshing the drinks were! Our server was very friendly and helpful. read more

If you are in that area you must try this place. The food is delicious and Daniel is one of the nicest servers I've had. The cabbage is definitely something I will have again, the lamb skewers were so good and the place is real clean. I thought I lost my ring and Daniel spent 15 mn digging in the trash looking for it that was one of the most amazing things a restaurant has ever done. I went there two days in a row and would definitely go again. read more

I drive 35-45 minutes to dine here anywhere from 1-2 times a week on average. That alone should give you an indication how great this place is. The value for their hotpot is unmatched for the price and their appetizers are decent portions and have a good variety. They currently are running a buy one get one free on drinks including beer. read more

Lured in by the hot pot sign, we drove into the small shopping center. If it weren't for the pictures outside of the entrance, we would not have guessed Fig's Corner served hot pot. From the outside, it gives off the vibe of an arcade, the name "Fig's Corner Bar & Grill" makes it seem more like a lounge or bar. Once inside it sticks with the lounge vibe with very comfy seating. The walls are adorned with an eclectic mix of figures and portraits. We were at a weird time between lunch and an early dinner but there were at least 2 or 3 other groups dining. We were immediately greeted and had plenty of options for seating. Menu is concise and easy to order from, drinks on one side while food and apps are on the flip side. The brown sugar boba was delicious, though at 50% sweetness level it was still very sweet. I would try 25% next time. It was much cheaper than I expected as it was $4. We also had a pitcher of ice water which stayed chilled and refreshing. Glad we did not have to keep asking for refills. I had the pepper pork appetizer which was like popcorn chicken but pork and had a side of Malay chili flakes. We ordered the Beef Tomato Hot Pot and Golden Soup Hot Pot. Tomato soup was very tasty! I can't pinpoint the flavor of the Golden Soup but it was delicious. I liked the variety of toppings in the hotpot and I wanted to try the spicy Malay hotpot but opted for the simpler flavor to start out with. The hot pot comes out in personal sets with a small burner rather than the stove at each table. The dipping sauces were a real highlight honestly but made in house so won't be able to have it at home unless I figure out the recipe. Service was good, they checked in us every once in a while. read more

I feel like there isn't enough single serving hot pot around in the area so I was excited when I saw this place opened up. The interior was amazing. Had a lot of cool/trendy decorations that made the place feel like such a vibe and they were playing k-chill music. It was pretty empty when we came and the outside location is a bit sus, but overall the hot pot was really yummy. Super creamy and savory and had a lot of toppings to fill me up. Will come back if in the area again. Food: 8/10 Service: 9/10 (we were the only ones there) Ambience: 8.5/10 read more

Food is good but service is always rushed. Today we arrived before 10:20pm and got told it was only for take out. The restaurant closing time is 11:00pm and on their sign says last call is 10:30pm. It is disappointing to be turned away for more than 40 mins before closing time. Their staff is not rude but always in a hurry and that is not customer service friendly. read more

Pretty dope new Chinese spot next to USC. The personal hot pots are very comparable to Boiling Point, definitely better in some aspects. The ingredients taste a lot more fresh, and the soup is a lot less oily. The amount of meat they give is a little less, but they try to make up for it by giving more of everything else. The SICHUAN MALA HOTPOT has a really clean but flavorful Sichuan flavor. It's definitely on the spicier side, but super bomb. Also tried the SIGNATURE BEEF HOTPOT in non spicy, and the soup is way better than Boiling Point's (it's got a more authentic, cleaner flavor). read more

We embarked on an enchanting culinary adventure in LA to check out a new restaurant that just opened about a couple months ago. As soon as we walked in, I loved the ambiance and decor!! Their menu is a paradise for hot pot lovers, but they also have an array of tantalizing options that will send your taste buds into a frenzy of happiness with food. My absolute favorite dishes were the Golden Broth Hot pot, Grilled Squid Skewer, Cheese corn and the Grilled ribs!! What we tried... * Golden Broth Hot pot As soon as he brought it to the table, it tantalizes your senses and make your mouth water. I LOVED the full-bodied broth, which has a depth of flavour and great balance. The golden color of the broth is bright and colorful. I was looking forward to digging in. The sweetness from the corn and the umami from the mushrooms adds a layer of flavor. Perfect comfort food!! * Sichuan Mala Hot Pot The bright red color tells you that this hot pot is VERY spicy Be careful because it can be a little numbing if you're not used to this level of spice. A lot of care and time has been taken for the depth of flavor. I tried a little at a time, so I was able to handle it. * Green bean rice noodles - fun to add in the hot pot. Texture was a little firm but light. * Popcorn Chicken - crispy but juicy. So tasty!! * Cheese corn. - creamy, cheesy goodness, sweetness. So good! I couldn't stop eating it. * Enoki mushrooms - long, thing strands, chewy texture, earthy taste. The sauce gives it a good flavor. * Grilled ribs - delicious!! Easily one of my faves!! grilled flavor, crispy outside, tender * Chicken wings -So crispy and tasty Yakitori * Lamb skewers - Tasty , light, flavorful * Pork skewers - Very spicy full flavor, a little too salty , a little dry * Grilled Squid skewer - love the flavor, sauce has a little sweetness, firm texture, fun to eat. This was my favorite skewer!! I wish we had ordered more than 1 lol * Grill Taiwanese sausage - so good! Sweet. Flavorful. * Coconut drink- really good!! You can taste coconut. Subtle sweetness. Authentic Drinks from China. Make your way over and enjoy!! You won't be disappointed! read more

I'm super excited a hotpot place opened right by USC! My friends and I came on a Thursday night when it wasn't too packed, so we didn't have to wait to be seated. I really liked the decorations and ambiance of this place! It definitely feels modern and I like their unique style. To order, they give you a piece of paper to fill in. I got the signature beef and my friend got their kimchi pork. With the additional rice and noodles they give, it's actually a pretty big portion. I thought their soup was really flavorful and wasn't overpowering in any way. I also really enjoyed the balance of meat and vegetables. There were bits of "seafood" like fish balls and imitation crab, so it was mix with the beef. All of their hotspots are about $16.99, which isn't bad all. I'll be coming back, especially when I'm craving something warm on a cold or rainy day! There's a parking lot available but sometimes it's full or the spaces are pretty tight. I'd recommend street parking or going around the corner if this happens. The staff was friendly and brought everything out quickly. Overall, a really good experience! read more

Went to Fig's Corner Last night and it was a great experience. Very good prices for good food! We ordered the Signature Beef Hotpot (Spicy) for about 17 dollars. It came with: Angus Beef, Beef meatball, Tempura, Firm tofu, Crab stick, Quail egg, Fried tofu, Spam, Tomato, Fish tofu, Shimeji Mushroom, Bean Curd, Corn, Zucchini, Fungus, Napa cabbage, Vermicelli, Scallion, Cilantro. We were able to remove anything we did not want and could add more for an additional price. While I prefer to cook my own hot pot/choose the exact mix/match I want, it was still great. The meat was great quality and I really liked the broth it came in!! We also ordered the cheesy corn. I think they use packaged grated cheese because we did not get the cheese pull that is normally expected. This order fed 2 people! The service was fast and it was not too busy inside. Note: You have to go up to the front to pay for your meal-- the check isn't brought out to the table. I think it is a good price for the quality, but I would have prefered more choices and less of a pre-fix menu. read more

I can eat Hot Pot all year round! Fig's Corner is the newest place to go to get your hot pot fix. What I love about this place is the interior, the music, their appetizers, and of course their hot pot! Both broths we got were really flavorful and I love the various appetizers they had. It's definitely worth trying at least 3-4 different dishes since we loved them all. The fried intestines and the pork hock were the best! The skewers were good, but the pork belly skewers could've had more meat on them. Highly recommend stopping by this place and it's located right next to USC! They have their own free parking lot which makes it super accessible too! read more

Fig's Corner is a fantastic addition to the USC area. I never like making the drive out to Boiling Point in 626, but Fig's Corner is a very substitutable alternative. Their hotpot and skewers hit the spot, especially during LA's crazy rainy weather this year. The restaurant is a great place to go with friends, even if you have a bigger group. It feels very open and well lit, so it's a fun place to hang out over good food. They offer a variety of broths with different types of toppings. I got the Sichuan Mala Hotpot and loved the ingredients it came with! They were also very generous with the quantity; I think I got 3 quail eggs, but the meat was kind of on the smaller side. The broth is super flavorful and not too spicy at all. My friends got the Signature Beef Hotpot, Pickle Cabbage Lamb Hotpot, and Kimchi Pork Belly Hotpot. They were all delicious and unique, so I think it'd be fun if you went with a group and got to try their different offerings. The prices are a little pricier, but the serving portions are large enough to make up for it--you could easily split a hotpot with a friend. However, the skewers are overpriced for sure in my opinion. Service-wise, the employees are all attentive and quick. They speak both English and Chinese. It's also located in a parking lot (perfect to grab Pot of Cha after!), but the spots are kind of squished and get filled--it may be easier to find street parking nearby behind the lot. All in all, Fig's Corner is a yummy option to have in the area, and I'm sure I'll be back. read more

Came here for birthday dinner! The Spicy Mala Sichuan pot was okay. Broth was good but if you want more spicy def ask for extra spicy otherwise Boiling Point's spicy pot was def better. Service was nice as they were attentive. I like their broth a lot but Boiling Point had better add ons / items in the their hot pot itself I feel? Overall still a great experience and I'm glad a local Hot Pot spot opened up near home! Def closer than Pasadena or Monterey Park if one is craving soup! I'm sure the college students are thrilled this spot opened up too(: read more

I wanted to give this hot pot place a chance because a lot of it tastes like sichuan style broth but this hot pot broth was really yummy and unique. They really stack the toppings inside the hot pot and you can ask for more broth if you run out. The pot comes with complimentary vermicelli noodles and rice and sauce to dip your toppings. Get the Golden Beef Broth for a more creamy broth. The place didn't have any wait but it gets a little crowded on the weekends. The service wasn't the greatest because the workers didn't pay attention when I was trying to get help or request for something. However, they offered us a free drink at the end of the night which was really sweet. Give this place a try because it's definitely worth it! read more
