We came here for the $22 lunch all you can eat special, which delivers amazing value! Unlike other places, the soup broth is included in the cost of lunch, as well as protein like beef and lamb. You also have access to lots of other things like veggies, pork, marinated beef, and fried buns/spring rolls. Pop is also included! Staff are quick and mostly leave you alone once youre at your table so you can enjoy your food in peace. Doesn't get too busy, but you might have to wait a few minutes to get a table at first. Honestly a great deal to go if you can during lunch! read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - Original soup and Hot soup. With beef and lamb - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

Came here for the $22 per person lunch buffet deal with free soup and was not disappointed. I loved seeing the little robots that bring the food to the table. I usually go to the Burnaby Happy Lamb location for the dinner buffet at double the price, but honestly this one might have converted me to do lunches instead. The food selection is very good and you can get your own selection of veggies off of the trays on the side. The pork, chicken, and garlic beef are also available on the side. You have to order the beef and lamb separately with the wait staff. This is much better than trying to have the kitchen staff guess how much of each item you want and getting it wrong. The sauces are also available. There are alot of choices, including sesame paste, fermented tofu, sesame oil, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, salt, sugar, green onions, and coriander. The interior of the restaurant is not as nice as the Burnaby location and overall feels less luxurious. The bathrooms were kind of sketchy. The female one had three stalls, one with a broken lock, one that was totally out of order, and a third one that was somewhat functional but had no handle to open the door from the outside. There was also no paper towels. read more

Meeting up with a friend in Coquitlam and they suggested Happy Lamb Hot Pot. It is a great location just across from the Coquitlam Center, a skytrain station and plenty of free roof level parking. I was recently at the Burnaby location and what I liked about this location, was the self service vegetable station, which also included garlic beef, pork and chicken. We ordered the lunch special (with unlimited beef and lamb slices) for $21.99 plus the price for the mushroom broth. It also included free self serve soft drinks and a popsicle for dessert. Great to have a self service snack area with chicken wings...they were so good and of course one can not get by without the sauce making station. Much of the restaurant is self service so the serving staff just have to take the order, bring out the lamb and beef slices and refill the broth as requested. There was no issue with the service. It was a positive food experience and we both came away very full and satisfied. read more

We had plenty of veggies and meat; and left feeling overly satisfied Lots of seating available this evening (Monday). Service was very good, very friendly waiters. Everyone said hi and greeted us with smiles. Clean interior decor. read more

I visited here about a month ago for a hot pot. I'm totally obsessed with hotpot particularly in cold days in Vancouver. Happy Lamb in Coquitlam had a smaller selection in meat and toppings, bur food was good. I had AYCE lunch combo for $20.99. Server brought meat while everything else is self-serve (eg. watercress,mushrooms, tofu, garlic beef, etc). They also had chicken wings, spring rolls, sesame balls and noodles on the side. One special thing about this location is the robot that brings you meats. The price is cheaper than most places these days. It's usually $25.98 including the broth and is included with pop. Lunch special is pretty decent. I'd recommend this place to everyone who wants affordable delish hot pot. The female server was very friendly. read more

Reasonably priced all you can eat food. I like the self-serve area, particularly for vegetables -- I can choose what I want, and get as much as I need. You only need to ask for a few different types of meat, but generally most of what you need is self serve. They do not have many floor staff as a result, but they were really efficient and tentative to all tables. read more

Amazing all you can eat hot pot! You choose a soup base and then you can go off and grab all the food you would like. Great assortment of veggies, meat, noodles, fish balls, seafood, etc. The sauce bar is also stocked with peanut sauce, satay sauce, soy sauce, garlic, green onion, cilantro, etc. Unlimited pop is also included. You have to ask the servers for beef and lamb, but the robot is nice and quick. Ice cream at the end of the meal is a must! read more

My first time here. Was impressed with the well appointed, well ventilated interiors and overall cleanliness of the place. The service was also friendly and perfectly timed. Broth flavor and sauce selections were just ok. Food safety regulation was clearly not being followed with raw meats being stored above raw vegetables in the self serve refrigerated showcase. Showcase had a varied and good selection of veggies, meats, carbs and seafood. Quality of sliced meats was impressive for the price point. Garlic beef was the only item that bad - slimy in texture but in an off putting way .. possibly from over tenderization?? Ample free and safe parking on the rooftop of Henderson Mall, even after hours. One of the most reasonably priced AYCE hotpots. Would def return for the good value. read more

Let me start off by saying this is an AYCE place. It wasn't too busy when I went and there is paid parking located in Henderson Place. I ordered the premium option which came with the Lamb and the premium meat. They also have a selection of seafood balls and seafood in general like : Oyster, fish, crab and shrimp. There is also a selection of fresh vegetables. The dining experience was good. The broth had good flavour and the side options were good. The service was good. The place has a casual setting. It's worth a visit I think read more

I bought a Groupon to have dinner with B. The Groupon was not a great deal given the amount of food we got. I think there are better deals outside of Groupon. Anyways. The Groupon came with the following for 2 people: -Premium Lamb Shoulder (15 Slices) -Marbled Beef (15 Slices) -Tender Chicken Filet -White Prawn -Cod Fish Filet -Pork And Shrimp Dumplings -Assorted Meatball Platter -Fish Tofu -Leafy Vegetables -U-Don -Dessert: Lychee Goji Berry Pudding -the Half and Half Soup Broth The portion of each item was very small. The price of the Groupon was $53. Other than the lamb, beef and meatballs, everything was meh. For a little bit more, the AYCE would be a better deal. In terms of food freshness, it was ok. There was almost no service. The food came all at once which was good. The thing that didn't impress me was their sauces. Seems like their sauces were nothing special. I do like the variety. But you can easily get each item / sauces from T&T. The robot waitress was very cute. read more

Came here for dinner with my parents and it was a self serve AYCE hotpot place which I thought was kinda fun. Hotpot is already interactive so to pick your own hotpot items yourself was a nice change. They kept replenishing items that would go low and every item was super fresh. Got the regular AYCE menu and at $30.99 it was a good deal compared to other AYCE hotpot places. But the best part surprisingly was the service. Only two servers working tonight and the tables were constantly clean, drinks were refilled and most importantly, they were always smiling. Lily and Mila were so genuinely friendly that it made for a pleasant dining experience especially from an Asian restaurant where good service is rare. This might be my new go to AYCE hotpot place in Coquitlam. read more

This was our first time at this location for lunch. Their only option was AYCE plus the price of the broth. Their food selection was pretty good. There were some cooked items included. The sauce bar was basic with the standard options you would expect. Additionally, there were items you can pay extra for such as soda drinks and dessert. Service was alright. Staff dropped off plates of beef and lamb. Staff stopped by regularly to clear dirty plates and refill drinks. Overall, it was a decent meal. Kids under 5 can eat for free which is great since AYCE can get pricey. read more

We came here with a coupon from Van People which got us an all you can eat meal for 2 for the price of ~$56 total. It also included unlimited soft drinks and the broth. The first round of food we ordered came quite quickly. The thinly sliced fatty beef was really good. Really liked the stuffed fishball too! But when round two came, the orders were all out of whack and it took a long time for things to come at all. Things we didn't order came, and things came in strange quantities. I feel like we could've eaten more if they brought out the food quicker and correctly. Overall, the food itself was good. Also your food can sometimes get delivered by their robot which was cool! The score's Just a little weighed down because we couldn't really control what we were getting, how much, and when. read more

What I find it fun was their robotic cat that delivers your order to you. The food was alright but would have been good if they have more selections in sauces. 3.5/5 for overall service and food quality read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

The Happy Lamb leaves a lot to be desired with the food being below average and the server a bit on the excessive side with the presentment of the check and a huge presence when paying cash and expecting a tip....more on that later. Came for lunch and order the Meat solo pot special with fatty beef and fatty lamb, lettuce, cabbage, noodles sweet potato slices and lamb dumplings. The meat was acceptable but I wouldn't exactly cite it as quality cuts. The meat was excessively thin, more so than other hot pots I have had in Vancouver area. The noodles definitely are not made in the shop and the dumplings were a disgusting machine made product that was "perfectly formed" and frozen. So disappointing that when you come to such a traditional Chinese restaurant that this type of food quality is presented. Also ordered was the side dish of mushrooms and you can select two. This was quite fresh and the quantity was great. Again, with the poor quality soup base, this quality was not able to be appreciated. Online menu shows lotus root available, server says never had it. Also as mentioned in other reviews, the sauce bar was rather on the weak side with many of the "standard" items missing. When I ordered I was not given the choice of a base, and was brought the bone base. I requested that I wanted a spicy mala soup base expecting that undeniable numbing sensation so integral to a spicy hot pot. So the server takes the first base away and then quickly returns with what appears to be the same pan she took away and simply some red small liquid and a few cut up chilis. There was no spicy flavor what so ever. This was very disappointing. Presentation: Excellent Soup/broth: Poor Beef: Lacking Lamb: Lacking Noodles: Not fresh Dumplings: Frozen and no flavor Mushrooms: Excellent Heineken: Excellent At the end of meal and check presented, I was paying with cash. Quite a bit of the meal was left uneaten. The server asked me if everything was all right. I said it was acceptable. Then paid my bill with a very small tip. Server then asked again, I responded the same. She then stood there and said was I sure. I then said there wasn't any additional tip coming. What was surprising to me was the amount of attention paid to me at the end of my meal, surfing for a tip, as opposed to not checking during the meal as it was quite evident that the amount of my meal being consumed and the pace was suggestive that not all was well. The restaurant had 4 tables other than me. I didn't observe her checking on any of the other tables as well. PS: The cat robot was a nice touch! read more

I saw a low rating or bad reviews about this hot pot place on Yelp and a Groupon deal at $78 for four people. I decided to buy the Groupon deal especially I got 20% off of the promo price. It was a really good deal. Although the rating was low or the reviews were bad, a LOTS of people came here for dinner and some were even waiting at the door. The service was okay. Servers were busy serving so many customers at the same time. I could imagine they were stressed out as well. I wouldn't expect them to smile or please all customers all the time. The restaurant was clean and organized. It was very spacious with lots of chairs and tables. The them colour of the restaurant is lime green. The restaurant looks modern with the "sheep" decorations. We used the Groupon deal for four people. We didn't wait for a long time. All the food came out quickly. That was great! We had an original soup base (with some Chinese herbals). The soup base tasted good! The meat balls were freshly made in house. There were a lot of meat such as chicken, lamb and beef. There were also fish and prawns as well as some pork and prawn dumplings. There were two different types of veggies. Last but not least, there was a dish of Chinese desserts. It was a lychee jello or something like that. It was tasted good. Not too sweet. We had paid on the Groupon website already, so we only paid for tax and tips. We might come back here for all you can eat or order different varieties of food instead of doing the set dinner. Then we can try a different soup base and other types of food. Overall, we had a good eating experience here other than that we were sitting next to a table with a toddler that he screamed and cried so much. read more

I purchased a Groupon for 2ppl and used it tonight (Tue Dec 3/18). My husband and I had a great time! There is free underground parking at Henderson Place Mall, and we walked through the mall to get to the restaurant. We were surprised to see there was no mall entrance into the restaurant, instead we had to walk outside and around, to get into the restaurant. It was pretty quiet inside, so we were able to get a table right away. As soon as we were sat, the host asked if we had been there before, we said no. She said she would give us a moment to look over the drink menu and would come back to explain everything to us. She came back in a timely manner, took out drink order then explained how everything worked, thoroughly. She was so polite and made sure to take her time to explain everything. She didn't rush through any of it and made sure to ask if we had any other questions. She was so welcoming to us newbies!!! :) Her and another waitress were very attentive as the night went on, clearing our plates when empty, filling our drinks (pop) when we were close to empty, & always asking if we were doing ok. The choices we got with our Groupon was plenty for the 2 of us, and all tasted very good! I would definitely go back again! read more

There's nothing like having hot pot on a cold rainy day! We haven't had hot pot in a while and I was really excited to come here. It was busy but we didnt have to wait for a table. The decor was modern and the restaurant was clean over all. We had a Groupon for two and what was served to us was some kind of combo. It wasn't all-you-can-eat but rather preselected ingredients you can add to your soup. We were told by our server what you see in the Groupon photo was what was served. We were able to choose our own broth though and we got spicy and non-spicy. I preferred the spicy broth, it had lots of flavor and spice. Even though we didnt pick our own ingredients, the food we received ended up being a LOT and after cooking it in the spicy broth it was amazing! The customer service here is good! It was very busy while we were here and the servers were hustling but always took the time to ask us about our food, clear off our table, refill our drinks and answer any questions we had. The low ratings this restaurant has received is disappointing. But based on our wonderful experience, the numerous customers and the customer service, we could tell this establishment is really trying hard! I really like it here and we plan to return to try the all-you-can-eat menu! read more

So a fly came out of my soup, manager came and said it was natural that bugs come out? I was expecting for her to at least apologize first but after she said that I was so baffled I told her I don't have to pay for this dinner. An argument started and it was us talking back and forth. At the end she said she is able to give a discount and then apologized..? Not impressed.. you get a good deal for the price but does that make it okay to gave bugs in the soup? ‍ Please be wary of bugs for anyone dining here. read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

Service: - It's okay. We have a table of 6 people. We had to wave down the waiter a couple of times to get our broth change and refill drinks. Food: - We ordered a lot of food, but we ended getting few pieces/portion of the food. For example, we wrote 10 pieces of dumpling and we would get 3 pieces of dumpling. What is this? Keep in mind, this is only our first round. If this was our 3rd and 4th then it would be understandable for being 'concerned' about us being wasteful and full. However, this is a common practice for most all you can eat places. But this shouldn't make an exception in this case since it's our first round of ordering food. Payment: - Frankly, I was surprised and shocked on that there's a limit of how many cards we can use. I've never encountered this before with other restaurants. I observed someone radio the waiter to stop accepting anymore credits after x amount of cards. We have 6 people paying with credit card. Waitress told us he could only accepts 5 credit cards and 1 person has to pay cash. What is this??? Be aware of payment when you have a larger group wanting to pay all with credit cards. Summary (if you don't want to read my review) - Constantly asking waiter to refill drinks & change broth - Restriction on food portion on 1st round of ordering - Accepts up to 5 credits cards on split the bill and the rest pay only in cash (no where do this states in the restaurant). Perhaps, it's a way for them saving visa charges/fees. - Recommend others? No. read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - Half and half spicy broth - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

I have gone to the Mongolian Hot Pot in Burnaby, but not the one in Coquitlam. I came with a large group, and we were put at a nice table with four people per hotpot table. We had the non-spicy soup, but the other tables had other types of soup, and some were separated to accommodate for allergies. We probably stayed there for more than an hour. Hotpots are great for socializing, but that means the line may be longer. The restaurant was quite full, but not jam packed. Since we got the all-you-can-eat course, you can pick as many things as you like for two rounds, but you are likely charged for leaving leftovers. Depending on how many pots you have, it's about $25 to $30 per person (including tips). The service was quite attentive and pleasant as they would often refill our hotpot when our soup stock was running low. The ingredients were good too, and it was a good experience for me and my friends (some of which were not used to using chopsticks, but they managed). Definitely a good place if you haven't been to a hotpot before, although you should bring some experienced friends so you don't fall victim to the intricacies of the hotpot. read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - Hotpot with some raw ingredients to be cooked - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

Unlike the Burnaby location, their broths are either beef or pork. I don't eat either so I probably wouldn't come to this specific location.

I've been to Little sheep Mongolian hotpot at every location in Vancouver. This one in coquitlam is the newest one (April 2017). I went at 7:30pm on a Monday evening with one other friend. There were many many tables available and I got seat almost immediately. The staff were not friendly and basically just escorted you to a table and expected you to follow without having said anything or greetings. The food was as standard just as any other branch. When talking with the staff, one of them in particular could barely even understand English and messed up the orders twice. Altogether, I feel the coquitlam branch food and environment is comparable to other branches with relatively same amount of tables. However, the staff at this location are not friendly. read more

Returned here again to use the coupon they given to us on our last visit and noticed a few changes. Service is definitely dependent whether you are lucky with an attentive server or not. They are relatively busy and the server we have this time was definitely not as quick and friendly as our last. Their menu changed a bit where some of the appetizers like the fried chicken is no longer included free in your hot pot meal, which was a downer because I really liked them. But it is still a quick and close place to go for hot pot so I would come again despite a few disappointing changes. read more

We got the ayce which was a bit pricy, but most hot pot places are expensive anyway. We felt it was worth it with all of the different options on the menu! The house special broth was light and smooth and the spicy hit you on the back of your throat but did not kill you. We ordered basically every meat on the menu but our favorites were the Garlic Beef and the squid tentacles. Especially cooked in the spicy broth, it gave it an extra little kick! As for veggies, we got quite a few of them but the enoki mushrooms stole the show. Soaking up all of that delicious broth... my mouth is watering thinking about it! The sauce bar was pretty decent, my only complaint is that you have to pay extra for cilantro which is a must in any decent persons hot pot sauce. The service is also almost non existent. I think we had to order drinks 2-3 times before we got them. And no refills on water or tea. I would probably come back simply for the food! read more

Meh. I'm a frequent visitor to the Burnaby Little Sheep location. I am there at least every 1-2 weeks, sometimes 1-2 times a week. I went to that location yesterday only to find out they were closed for renos. Oh no! Having already tried the Richmond location, we thought we'd try the Coquitlam location this time. First, parking sucks. There was little street parking and it was all full when we got there at 9pm. There is parking at Henderson Place Mall but we were limited to an hour. I was a bit nervous about parking as I saw the security guy there checking cars and I knew I'd be longer than an hour. Had to get up in the middle of our meal to look for more parking. If you're transiting, it is right across the street from a skytrain station, so that's good I guess. As soon as we walked in, someone asked us "2?" and then basically walked past us as if expecting us to know to follow him. Since it was 9pm, there were only perhaps 3 other tables occupied. For the majority of our meal, there were more employees than patrons, which is all the more reason why it's so baffling to figure out why service was terrible. We had to flag someone down to give our order sheet (again, only 3 other tables there already eating. They should have known to check for our sheet like the Burnaby location always does). We had to flag (far too long) for water. Dishes sat on our table the entire meal. Service was terrible. The food was consistent with the other locations, as well as the sauce stand. No complaints there. The ONLY good thing I liked about this place was that the tables were bigger than the other 2 locations I've been to. I guess more space to keep your dirty dishes. Given the choice between other Little Sheep locations, I think I'll stick to Burnaby or Richmond from now on. read more

We had two choices for soup bases ($9.99): House Special Original or Spicy (or a half x half of the two), we got the original. It was a milky broth that comes with many herbs and loads of garlic.Sadly they got in the way of food and never got a chance to be fully cooked to get their flavors into the soup =( The broth is kind of like the soul of hot pot to me, and it was intensely salty. Had to dilute it with water. Their order sheet allows for two rounds, clearly laid out with categories for food. The meats are maximum 2 orders per round (not sure if it's per person) with each plate being 10pcs. Also, there is a section for extra add-on items, such as meat skewers, oysters, extra condiment items, and drinks/desserts. [Note the numbers I had on the order sheet because the items DO NOT come in the amount listed, it's quite sporadic] There is a sauce station with: Satay (super watery and just oil), chili oil (not very spicy), peanut sauce, and soy sauce. To its left are the appetizer dishes you can find on the order menu but self-serve. Looked kinda sketchy, so we decided to skip those. I've been to many hot pot AYCE establishments with a much larger selection of sauces and condiments which are included in the price at better quality-- even the Burnaby location of Little Sheep does a better job. First to arrive was luncheon meat (2 pcs ordered, 6 came) and garlic beef (5 slices ordered). Luncheon meat was average and salty. I couldn't eat more than two pcs so I left the rest on the plate. When they cleared the table I saw them bring that dish back to the kitchen while the rest of the other dishes were placed into a dirty dishes trolley... suspicious. The garlic beef was fresh and tender, however there was a giant piece plus two small ones... almost as if they missed cutting it. Veggies came next, we got watercress (1 order), enoki mushroom (1 order), and tong ho (1 order). These looked fresh and clean. Then it was an assorted dish of items we ordered: crab meat stick (4 pcs ordered, 6 came), cuttlefish (4 pcs ordered, 8 came), fresh aorta (6 pcs ordered, 10+ arrived), beef tendon (4 ordered, 4 came), beef omasum (4 pcs ordered, a huge clump came), beef tripe (4 pcs ordered, frozen clump came), quail eggs (4 ordered, 4 came), cod fillet (4 pcs ordered, 7 came), dried pork rind (4 pcs ordered, 8 came), mutton dumpling (4 pcs ordered, 4 came). They ended up missing our order for mussels, but we were too full and didn't feel like asking for them. The mutton dumplings were highlights for sure, they were tasty and flavorful but very filling. Everything else was fresh. The cod fillets were super salty, and after cooking in the salty broth-- inedible, so we had to leave them. Another plate arrived with tofu puff (4 pcs ordered, 6 came), fresh bean curd stick (4 pcs ordered, 4 came), winter melon slices (2 pcs ordered, 4 came), fish tofu (2 pcs ordered, 2 came), kelp knot (1 order), gluten (4 pcs ordered, 6 came), potato slices (2 pcs ordered, 4 came), pork blood curd (4 pcs ordered, 5 came), and pork liver (4 pcs ordered, 6 came). I liked the tofu puffs and gluten, these could be cooked nice and soft with some bite to them, indicating good quality. HungryPanda was pretty choked about having to eat 4 instead of 2 potato slices at the end since she was so full already. Elephant had to take many for the team and was definitely overfilled. The pork liver was nice and fresh, marinated well and had good bite to them. Oh did I mention we got our soup at this time after all that food had arrived to taunt us? I didn't even realize the meatballs dish was inaccurate, but they're hand-made and decent. Good bite and flavors. We ordered 6 of each but only got 4 of each. There was cuttlefish ball, mutton ball, and beef ball. Yay! Our first order of supposedly 30 pcs of lamb shoulder slices finally arrives! Their meats are super thinly sliced, about 1mm thick. So they cook very quick and barely feel like eating anything almost! Not fatty and fresh, this was good quality meat. Next were "5 slices" of loin of beef, clearly way more pcs-- like 20. They were fattier but melted in my mouth and so full of beef flavor. A nice shade of red too. Then were our fatty beef slices (30 pcs ordered, 20 came), these were fresh and yummy too! No complaints here besides it disappearing too fast! To be safe we only ordered 5 pcs of their kurobuta pork belly and... at least 30 slices arrived. These were nicely marbled and not too fatty. You could see the beautiful layers of meat and fat, super fresh and tasty! The portion amounts were totally random and inaccurate, so it was hard to gauge how much to order. I mean, if it's off by 1 or 2 it's within reason, but double or more of the order? That's a bit much. HungryPanda and Elephant both ordered plum juice ($2 with free refills) and they said it was good, not a diluted version. Might give them another chance in six months after this hype because it isn't worth the lineup and time. read more

I think this place is overhyped. It opened a week ago but already had a long lineup. Expect to wait for 15-20 minutes on a typical Thursday evening. Waiter is attentive but service is quite slow. We didn't choose the all you can eat option, thinking that it's not a great deal for vegetarians (roughly $30 per person). Still, we ended up spending around $60 for some mushroom and lettuce. Ughhhh. Won't come back. I can eat hotpot at home, and it's literally the same thing. The sauce and other ingredients can be found in any given Asian supermarket. Won't come back. I would recommend the all you can eat meal especially if you have a huge appetite and order tons of meat and seafood. read more

Nice servers and service however the food and broth is just not tasty. Had the regular broth and spicy broth. Both were pretty yuck.

I finally made it to a Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot when they came to Coquitlam. It's AYCE hot pot and it's 1 of only 2 in the area so I gave it an extra star. It is $22.95 per adult and kids are roughly half the price. You need to purchase a soup base at $9.99 on top of that. There aren't many choices of soup base. While their soup base was milky and had flavour, I didn't like that their soup base had Chinese herbal medicine in it. There was no other choice of broth without that. The spicy hotpot is pretty much the original base with chunks of chillies, chilli oil and Szechuan peppers in it. You get less than the regular AYCE hot pot fare (pay extra for oysters and shrimp). I did like that they had oyster mushrooms and Chrysantheum. They also limit you to 2 rounds and further limit you the amount of shaved beef and lamb you ca get per round. After 2 rounds they take your order sheet away. Plum juice and pop are $2 but unlimited refills. I was downing plum juice after plum juice because the hot pot was so hot. I don't think I will be returning anytime soon. I can see my $30 better spent elsewhere in the area. read more

Happy Lamb Hot Pot - The mixed broth. Super spicy on the left, original on spicy on the right. - Hot Pot Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

I like the quality of the hot pot and the soup, but the service is subpar. Waitress kept forgetting or mixed up orders. At a few occasions the waitress brought extra orders we didn't order and came back half hour later and ask us if we still want it and then we watched her recycled it and serve it to another table. To be fair we didn't touch the order but the principle of it just wrong. It is exactly that I will not recommend this place due to food safety reasons. read more

The restaurant inside looked fancy yet the services there were awful. Yesterday me and my friends visited this place. One thing was only impressed was a server guided us the seating, yet afterward, no one ever came to serve us some tea until we asked to. After we ordered our food, the meals came fast but no one came to re-fill some soup after the soup based was shortened. Not recommended to this place for anyone read more

Walked out after being seated for 15 minutes and not having a server come to our table. The restaurant wasn't even half full, so I have no idea what the problem was. :(((((((( read more

I would give this place 3.5 stars. The soup bases are okay, the house soup base is bland and the spicy soup base isn't very spicy at all. Their all-you-can-eat menu has a good variety as well as a decent sauce bar and the service is good (for what it is- do not expect typical service you'd receive at a Western restaurant). While it's not the best hot pot restaurant I've been to it is overall decent and worth trying. read more
