    Yummy yummy, super excited when I saw a hot pot restaurant. I've been here in town back-and-forth for work travel. I love to eat hot pot at home where I'm from in Southern California. Decided to check this place out for an early dinner, very early dinner. I was actually the only one in the restaurant! They have tons of booth seating. The people working are very friendly and helpful. Usually this type of food is family style, but since it was just me. They were kind enough to let me know that I could order half portions of some of the food. What you wanna do is select a little bit of everything and then you would cook it and they're delicious soup. The flavor was very tasty. Vegetable portions for good size and the meat was yummy as usual! I recommend not cooking the meat too long. Also, for the soup I got one side regular one side spicy. I did like the spicy side better, but it was nice to have both to balance them out. Definitely try this place out if you have not had hot pot before, or looking for a good hot pot spot.

    First- the smells are amazing here. The parking lot is sorta busy and it's located in a strip mall. The staff here are very great and amazing! It's a small little restaurant. We had to wait about 20 minute since it was packed. Food was really pricy though for just 2... ended up spending $100. Everything had a cost, check your menu when you orders

    Half Spicy and Half Original Broth.

    Happened to be in the area on a cold winter day, which is perfect for hot pot weather! It can definitely get packed, so keep in mind when deciding when to stop by. We saw a few parties get turned away due to a full house. Price of items are a little on the pricier side, but quality of food is great and lack of competition allows them to do that. You order off a checklist menu. If you need visuals, they have photos of menu items on their website listed. PARENTS: FYI, there is no changing table in the bathroom for children. This needs to be changed! However, car seats are able to fit on their benches. PARKING: Free in the lot its located. HALF SPICY and HALF ORIGINAL BROTH: They have a split bowl for broths if you want the best of both worlds. I will warn that the spicy is spicy! We enjoyed it. Here is what we ordered for our HOT POT and we enjoyed everything: -ENOKI MUSHROOMS: My fave! -FRESH TOFU -SEAWEED KNOTS -TONG HO (aka Daisy Crown): Love the crunch of this asian vegetable! -NAPA CABBAGE -Meat: We ordered 1 PORK BELLY SLICES and 2 BEEF SLICES orders, we could have probably done with 2 orders instead of 3. Portions are decent for just 2 people. -HANDMADE NOODLES: Very chewy and well done! -STEAMED RICE: Wish one bowl of rice was included in the meal. -SATAY SAUCE: Wish sauce was included in the meal. Safe to say we left extremely full haha!

    Beef noodle soup

    Best noodle soup I've had, and it's in Richland! The dumplings were phenomenal. With lemongrass. Just outstanding, honest food, with no pretense. Left me warm. I left them a nice tip and this review. Support this business. The food speaks for itself.

    Vegetable Tomato base & Beef base

    The service was great and since it was my first time I had a lot of questions. The waitress walked me through everything and the results were fantastic! The food was great. Fresh, and flavorful. The restaurant atmosphere was very pleasant. Certainly a keeper.

    It was more expensive than I typically like to spend when I go out and eat, especially when you consider that you just have one soup pot.. But I still recommend, I'm glad we went. It was so delicious and it was a fun experience. It's a really good place to go for like a date vibe.

    Dear Hot Pot, While you're only a delicious way to make restaurant patrons cook their own food to some, you're a beautiful reminder of some great food memories to us! Back in 2005, my better half and I got stuck in Beijing after missing a train. We had hot pot that evening and there was just something about Pork and fish balls in a delicious broth that made things alright! Fast forward to today and we had another such experience! We tried this place after hearing rave reviews and it didn't disappoint. Our group of 10 (4 adults and 6 kids) shared a ton of different things and we found all to be everything we'd hoped. They've only got booths, but they accommodated us nicely! You choose a base soup of regular, spicy or vegetarian. You can go half/half off original and spicy which we did. Every a medium spicy had some good kick. Our soup a la family consisted of beef dumplings and pork/shrimp dumplings (all were awesome), the fish balls and pork balls were excellent, the handmade noodles were phenomenal and the quail eggs were a total hit! They kept our waters filled (as I had some legit soup sweats!) and were very pleasant! The broth end up being roughly the same temperature as the sun, so go ahead and blow on it before it goes in your mouth. The total came to about $60 per family and was well worth it! I can't tell you how excited we are to find a good hot pot place in the area - we'll be visiting again and often!

    Pan fried beef bun
    Aileen K.

    Nothing amazing. I ordered the wonton soup and the pan fried beef buns. First, the wonton soup. They use a lot of pepper for the wontons, so get ready for that. I also didn't have a single wonton where the meat stayed intact inside. It was not a cool experience trying to get the meat and get some wrapping all in one bite. Then the pan fried buns. What's with the tiny size of those meat balls in comparison with the buns? It was so doughey and there was hardly any reward for getting through all that bun. Can't say I'll be back.

    You better love spice if you even order mild. It's got kick.
    Texas H.

    Our server was very nice. He did a good job. The things I didn't like about the meal were the prices, and the spice level of the mild soup. You start at 6$ for broth. Sure. Ya gotta have broth for soup. Then some onions, onion is cheap but not here. Then carrots, a 50lb bag of carrots is 10 bucks, it's 5$ for a tiny plate you cook yourself. I'm at 14$ and I have onion carrot soup. So I get some noodles, and some meat, and some spinach, and some meat balls. Sure, why not? I have three people to feed, they need more than onions and carrot soup right?! So the meat was 11 or 12 dollars, and I cook it, for one minute, like the server says, then I take it out. It was about three tablespoons of meat after it was cooked, for 12 bucks. Then the mild soup, well it was supposed to be mild. But my other two dinner companions couldn't eat it. They both don't mind spicy but mild should be mild, not making the whole table cough from spice all at once. I ate it because I love spice, and they ate the original broth, which they also said was spicy, and so did another table we were talking too. The other table told us that the medium spice is unbearable. The meal was over 60$ for three people, one was 9 yrs old, it took over an hour to figure out what we wanted, get it all out to us, cook it ourselves, and I still left hungry after I ate every bite we ordered. I guess this is why people go to the all you can eat buffet for hot pot, because you work up such an appetite cooking up an a la carte overpriced hot pot meal, that you need to eat again when you leave.

    Combo mini hot pot...

    I ordered the combo mini hot pot where you can choose three types of meat and vegetables. Do NOT order this menu item because you'll get a bowl of soup as what's pictured. Defeats the whole concept of cooking while dining in. I felt their menu was misleading and this soup tasted like sh*t! My tofu was falling apart, Napa cabbage, soggy, and all my meats were over cooked. Broth sucked! Their chili oil also wasn't chili oil but a mixture of peanut butter and chili oil... skip that sauce. Overall, super disappointed in this place.

    Lamb!

    Ask the Community - Garden Hot Pot

    If you have leftovers, are you able to take them to go?

    Yes

    When is dim sum menu available?

    I don't think they will ever have a dim sum menu but they do have pan friend beef bun and other appetizers you can choose from.

    Do they take reservations?

    They aren't usually that busy but if you have a party of more than five person you may need to call ahead of time to let them know.

    Do they have a build your own dipping sauce bar or just the basic bottled sauces?

    Right now they have basic sauces you can order on the side. Hopefully people will still go and encourage them to make a sauce bar!
