Two of us rolled into this popular spot on a Wednesday evening wearing our stretchy pants ready to…read moreand eat were not disappointed! For me, this was my first time at a Liuyishou and it was quite the eye-opening experience. The selection of meats and veg to boil is impressive! Since my dining partner was well-versed in Sichuan hot pot I got to try some interesting items for the first time, like intestines and bull frog and had no problem with these novelty items since I had someone to recommend them and guide me through the process. She said some people will watch a clock and time some of the more sensitive items to make sure they don't overcook, although we didn't bother and focussed on stuffing our faces as quickly as possible. In addition to the free lemon water, we ordered a pitcher of Sapporo for $27 seemed a bit on the pricy side for a non-import brew. (Sapporo owns Sleeman which is in Guelph.) The ayce price for two was $66 (all prices without tax/tip) plus a two-flavour soup base was another $20 on top of that. So it was $153 with tax/tip for two of us. (Lunch is cheaper) For the two flavours of broth we had one super spicy Sichuan, and the other a milder bone broth one, which offered a nice contrast to try each broth with the various items. Since the atmosphere is bright and airy, without much for sophistication or decor, this would not be my first choice for a date night spot although the food is impressive, the vibe is not overly romantic and pretty basic. I can see now why it was not very busy that evening in May when we went with a price of over $150 for two, it was a good experience but you can do better for an intimate atmosphere at that price point.

My dining experience at Liuyishou Hotpot was very pleasant. The hotpot broth selection was…read moreextensive, spicy and flavorful, and the ingredients were fresh and varied. The meat slices were of just the right thickness, and the vegetables and seafood were of excellent quality. The staff were warm and attentive, responding promptly to orders and broth refills, and proactively addressing guests' needs, making me feel very welcome. The restaurant was spacious and clean, with Sichuan-style decor, creating a lively yet warm atmosphere, perfect for gatherings with friends. Overall, I was very satisfied with the experience and would definitely recommend this hotpot restaurant; I will definitely come back again.

Finally lively AYCE hotpot with wagyu…read more Liuyishou is a popular outfit for traditional hotpot, and here in the GTA they have long moved to AYCE format. This Scarborough location has been around for a long time as seen by the dated interior. Nonetheless it's still popular with some good promos to compete among the huge swath of Asian restaurants in this plaza. We chose an array of hotpot broths including the house special spicy, sukiyaki, pork bone broth & tomato soup. We came here to celebrate a family occasion, and Liuyishou delivered with its good selection of broths, meats, seafood, and veggies. The $8 Wagyu add-on on weekend was a nice upgrade--thinly sliced, tender, and worth trying if you want something a bit more indulgent. The $3.99 all-you-can-drink station was a pleasant surprise too, making it easy to keep refilling without thinking twice. Service was quick even despite it being relatively busy and a bit loud during dinner peak. Note the pricing per adult ($34.99 weekend dinner) excludes the soup base which is about $17 for a large shareable pot or $9 for an individual sized pot per guest so the bill can rack up. The wagyu and drinks are add-ons too. They do have a 2 adult + 1 kid family combo for $73.99 on weekends with one drink pitcher excluding soup base. Dessert is included such as taro soft serve, rice ball soup & cold jelly. Skip it or hit it? Hit it for a casual, authentic hotpot experience. Wish they replaced the worn seats.

We dropped in on a Saturday evening and had the place almost to ourselves, which was great since we…read morecould pick the perfect spot. The soup base selection is solid, and you can go with a single or a split pot depending on your mood. The self-serve setup is split into two sections: one for sauces and a limited dessert selection, and another for a good variety of fresh veggies, seafood, noodles, and soft drinks. You order your meats directly off the menu, and the servers are super attentive about keeping your broth topped up. It's got everything you'd expect from a basic hot pot spot. Pro tip: there's parking right in the building, but make sure to ask for a validation ticket when you pay your bill--it'll cover you for a little bit of free parking!

My friend has been putting me onto so many food gems lately... So far I've been here twice. And I…read moredrive all the way here from Oakville. It's THAT good. Not only was the restaurant theme absolutely breathtaking (which was a huge surprise for being in an industrial area), the variety, flavors, and value were AMAZING. I really like the cordyceps flower, red date, and goji berry broth as my base, which is basically an elevated chick/pork broth. They have at least 10 other bases to choose from without and "premium" charge like other places. Classic sliced hotpot meats are ordered through their QR code menu, but mostly everything else is self serve. All I really eat off the ordering menu is beef belly so I get the rest of my proteins from the self serve buffet. They even have frog legs!! Which I'm still working up the courage to try but how often do you see that as an option for ayce?! For $29 +tax & included gratuity, they have a very large and high quality selection of food, as well as a large drink selection if you're feeling boozy of if you're into milk tea (additional cost), and pop is bottomless. They're also open until midnight, however they stop seating people past 10:30. Parking is validated for up to 4hrs in the complex's attached garage. I'd also like to note that this place is NOT halal or allergy friendly! Because of their self serve buffets it's really easy to cross-contaminate seafood, seed, and nut items. I also wish their seating was more comfortable, the chairs and benches are unpadded wood, which are beautiful but can be a little uncomfortable if you're staying for an extended period of time. Tbh the place and selection are just so big that if I went on about every little feature I'd probably max out the character limit for this review, lol. Just take a look at the pictures and videos I shared and you'll get a good idea of what to expect! 1000000/10 You won't regret coming here. ( )و

Tables were nicely spaced, although loud, you can still talk and enjoy the pots - Service time was very attentive - and checked on you a reasonable amount of times to ensure you were having a positive dining experience. The white pepper chicken was AMAZING , and it felt like the chicken kept respawning inside the broth, because it felt like we never ran out of chicken (portion was very generous). The rice wasn't bad , I'm not a huge fan of claypot rice in general, however this one had good flavours and the crispy rice was just right, without tasting burnt. Hope to visit again during a future Toronto trip -

The broth is fragrant, peppery, and deeply comforting without being too spicy. It's one of those soups that warms you up from the inside out -- perfect for winter. We ordered the $65 large portion (good for 3-4 people) and were surprised by how generous it was. It includes two plates of chicken, and the serving size is very substantial. They also offer a smaller $52 option for two people and individual pots for solo diners. We added extra meat and vegetables, but it honestly wasn't needed. Portions are big and great for sharing. We even had leftovers to take home. Great value for the quality and portion size. Definitely a spot I would come back to for authentic Chinese comfort food.

We were served quickly and the service was overall great. We tried the crushed cucumbers, ginger beef, basil chicken, and scallion pancake. Everything was really yummy!! I wish the cucumbers had marinated a little bit because the dressing was really good but didn't really saturate the cucumbers. The ginger beef was so fresh and ginger-y. I'm excited to go back soon to try more dishes!!!

The second and after ended up being mostly frozen meat, as in meat that was STILL frozen. This makes the meat like a cardboard when cooked. The dessert station is very disappointing. Just cold jelly, sprinkles, fruits, hawthornes. The diced up watermelon is not appetizing. There's cake beside sesame oil dispenser. Lots of seats here and pretty dim in the larger round tables, hard to see your food. Rating: 3.8/5

This location is open very late on many nights - 3am! Food (3.75/5) - very large selection of meats, seafood, veggies and other items to choose for your hot top. Some were good and some were pretty average. You can choose from 10 different soup bases - I went with the Signature House Special one. Asked for mild and tbh it was way too spicy for my tastebuds haha. They were very accommodating to switch it out for the Mushroom one for me. My favorite selections: - marinated beef - thicker and good flavour - squid - good size and quality - mussels - good size and taste Average selections: - shrimp - fatty beef - pork belly - chicken I really like the ability to create my own dipping sauces and came up with 3 blends with soy sauce, oyster sauce and sesame bases. Need to probably try out a few mixes to get the right portions of each item. Had the Strawberry Taro soft serve waffle cone at end it was outstanding. Very refreshing and creamy. Service (4.25/5) - pretty attentive and helpful overall. Came by a few times for water refills and check-ins. Atmosphere (4/5) - well spaced out tables with single/double burners. Seemed clean and tidy overall. Overall (4/5) - its not a bad value if you are hungry and ideal for groups or couples. I would come back to try out more items. The late hours is pretty convenient too for that area.

They also didn't collect any finished dishes, as our table was running out of space. The restaurant itself has good seating, so there's really no wait.

Uber eats review!…read more Food: the food was excellent. You get a lot of food for the price. I love it. Be warned it may be spicy if you can't handle spice. Service: Got delivery but the main reason I'm writing this review is to let you know about their amazing packaging. The food came in aluminum containers that were sealed! Crazy! And the bag it came in was super high quality material with insulation to keep your food warm. 10000/10 for packaging. Note only some food come in aluminum such as the noodles. Ambiance: Got delivery but I've seen the store and inside is very fancy. Has a modern look that makes you want to go in and stay. I'd definitely say this is the best food packaging experience I've ever had in my entire life. Don't hesitate to get uber eats.
