Great spacious interior with high ceilings and beautiful light fixtures. The tables are big with plenty of seating, and the back has a great selection of self-serve hot pot sticks as well as all you can eat crawfish. This place also has regular BBQ meat sticks in addition to the hot pot meat sticks. The chicken, lamb, beef, and all the standard organ sticks are cooked very well. Everything is moist and not overly seasoned. Sometimes at these places the seasoning can be overly sweet or overly salty, but that was not the case here. The tins of mushrooms, especially the one with the beef, were also great. Besides fatty beef and enoki mushrooms, there were wood ear mushrooms, peppers, and a bunch of other things like a few rice cakes. Definitely get this if you love buttery, brothy beef with mushrooms and vegetables. The garlic eggplants are also super good if you love a roasted garlic overload. You can also order off the sheet by checking off the items and listing the quantity, which is very convenient. The only thing I did not think was worth it was the watermelon juice. One pitcher was twenty two dollars and it barely served six to seven small tea cups worth. Will definitely come back for the AYCE menu next time.
The place isn't quite the roomiest; the wooden bench, if pulled out too much, you won't be able to pass through. Went on a few occasions to this place and each time, the food selection is different.. not in a good sense, for the most part. Waitstaff can be attentive but last visit, someone spilled a tray of water (accidentally of course and without notice). She did later come to apologize, which was much appreciated. The air conditioning is on the bummer side, if it's too crowded. The crawfish tasted half cooked, so be cautious if you are going to grab a plate!
AYCE $43 for two choices cash offer, which is too good of an offer to pass up! Especially with such spacious seating inside. There's crawfish and chicken feet as free appetizers, and plenty of sodas and other drinks to choose from that's included in the AYCE price. I really think the grilled fish is especially worth it, since usually the fish already starts around $50 at the other places and this is all you can eat too. We had two fishes but could've easily ordered another one. I liked the pickled pepper broth fish. Also opted for the bbq/skewers option. While it starts to taste all the same after a while, the selection is pretty good and worth the price to be able to try all kinds of skewers. Only issue was that not all of the things we ordered came, so we had to flag someone down to remind them. But service is pretty nice and attentive!
Came in around 5pm on a very chilly weekend. Hotpot to chase the cold away and some really nice Chinese skewers with a cold glass of beer really hits the spot! Walking in, they had just opened for dinner and we were the only party. But by the time we finished placing our order, people started to stream in and it was filled in no time! We ordered our soup base and skewers. All other items for our hotpot could be selected by ourselves in the back. Most of the seafood were kept on ice and you took what you wanted. Right next to the food options were a selection of drinks and sauce station. Waitstaff were super attentive to your needs and when you raise your hand to flag them, they are already there next to you. Another great thing about this place is that if you pay in cash, they will gift you a few bonus dishes on the house for you to try and it really is the cherry on top to entice you to come! I'd come back for sure and I'd have no issues with bringing everyone I know to enjoy an incredible meal here!
Tried the Golden Lemon Broth was so amazing!! And the waiter was so nice and helpful. She just started work there but she really tried to help me I appreciate it :) (very cute girl!) All customers are local people so they are Chinese native you can trust!!!
Don't really care for the sticks experience. The menu is very confusing. If I do come back, I would not do ayce and just order everything separately.
This spot is a lot of fun and definitely worth it, especially with the cash deal they offer: all-you-can-eat hot pot, skewers, and a whole fish for about $40 per person. The restaurant is spacious, so you don't feel crowded, which adds to the overall experience. Most of the hot pot ingredients are in a fridge where you can help yourself, so there's no waiting around. For items like sliced meats, though, you'll need to order through the server. The broth here is notably better than what you typically find at other hot pot places nearby. As for the skewers, some stood out more than others, but they do start to blend together since the same seasoning is used on most of them. The real star of the meal, though, was the fish. It was perfectly fried, packed with flavor, and deboned, which made it easy to eat. I only wish they served rice--it would've been the perfect complement, and I could have easily polished off that entire fish on my own. Overall, if you can take advantage of that promotion, this place is totally worth it. I'll definitely be back!
Saw this restaurant on UberEats and decided to give it a try since they had dry hot pot and skewers. The first thing we ordered was the braised fish filet combo which came with 10 skewers of your choice, a soda and a side of white rice for $25.99. This was actually a pretty solid deal. We got the swai fish in preserved vegetable flavor and it tasted pretty good. There was a good amount of fish and tons of vegetables at the bottom of the dish. The skewers were also really good! The second thing we ordered and the main reason we ordered from this restaurant was the house famous spicy dry pot with 2 proteins for $17.95. This dish was a complete joke. They had a good variety of vegetables and stuff but there was barely any protein of my choice. We ordered the marbled beef and fish filet and there was probably 3 slices of beef and 3 pieces of fish. The flavor also didn't even taste like the usual dry hot pot we would get. It tasted like they just boiled everything and added some spice and mixed it up. This was definitely not worth the price.
This is a pretty spacious hot pot and bbq skewer place. For hot pot, you can get your food at the hot pot station. There was the regular hot pot stuff, squid, crabs, mussels, shrimp, etc. For the skewers, you can order on a paper and they'll bring it out. I really liked the coconut chicken soup base. There was the fish dish that came with our meal and then a frog dish that was free. Drinks are unlimited and you get ice cream after. For 6 people, after tip, the total came out to be around $300. I was very full when I had finished. I will be back again!
I came here for a girlfriend's birthday as she was craving hot pot and bbq and we were not disappointed. We found this casual dining spot with attentive service. There was a good variety of crab, seafood, beef and chicken. The hot pot was self- serve and bbq was brought out. A fun time was had by all!
This place is a twist from the typical Hot Pot places you may be used to. First of all, this is more casual setup with communal bench seating. There are some private rooms in the other section but they do not have the induction stove top on the table already (they have portable ones). For the big tables, there are 2 induction tops. Each top they can provide a 2- side hot pot . I typically like to go with the basic bone broth and just flavor the sauces spicier. Second, there are 3 options you can select from: Option 1: hot pot Option 2: Hot pot + bbq sticks (you fill out a form - Note: the food takes time to come out) Option 3: Hot pot + bbq sticks + fish casserole (comes out before bbq sticks) We found that ordering Option 3 gave the most value food wise. It is only a few bucks difference between Option 2 and Option 3 and we find that they provide additional complimentary sushi, frog dish, on the house items that added to the experience. Third, This is very much a self serve style. After you order what you want with the options you can : - Get your own soda/drink. - Grab your own food for hot pot (from the food display section). Note: fatty beef and lamb, you order with the server, those are not self serve. There are also some precooked food you can grab - crayfish and chicken feet. - Make your own sauce. I really enjoyed get as much as I want for myself so I did not feel like i'm wasting certain dishes and get to "try" things. Although, sometimes I want a lot of many I do feel like I'm wasting the dishes. Fourth, the dessert is the old school hersey's ice cream and sorbet cups you remember when you were a kid. They do have some other dessert options you can order but why ? Go with the ice cream option and thank me later. Also, you should have someone that knows some chinese as some of the servers do not speak english very well.
I came here to try their skewers, so this review is for the BBQ portion. The store is HUGE. You'll see two separate doors to the same place, with the right side being the main area. The playlist had a nice mix of Mando-pop transitioning to English R&B Pop music during our time there. Their menus didn't show the BBQ Combos section that I found online. Everyone dining was having hot pot. I had to inquire before they handed us a separate skewer menu. We picked 20 skewers for the $29.99 combo. Unlike Mr.Q, another BBQ skewer spot nearby, the skewers here only had 2 pieces a stick. They were tiny, but they were $1.50. If you are in a group, definitely get 1 stick per person. Nothing much really stood out from the skewers, but I do like how their Beef was tender without being dry or chewy. Trying the mediocre skewers here lessened my interest in exploring their hot pot options. Maybe come here for a nicer ambiance to chill and eat late night skewers, but Mr.Q takes the cake for better ones.
If you love variety, Hot Stix is one of the best restaurants where you can get hot pot, bbq skewers, and grilled fish or mala dry pot for $48.99 per person. While it's a pricier meal, all the food that you get is well worth it. I really loved how many different kind of meat, seafood, veggies, and more that they have. The fact that it's all on skewers makes cooking and eating easy. It's truly such a wonderful dining experience. We came with a large party of 11 and we were more than satisfied. Everything was delicious and I love how easy it is to get more skewers on your own. They also have a large selection of drinks from soy milk to herbal teas. In the end, you also get ice cream although the flavors are pretty basic here. Note that if you pay in cash, you get free durian, which is nice and creamy. read more

10.13.2023 Friday @9:30p Walk-in table for 2. Today service was abit better n faster then the other day I came. My friend sat down first so by the time I got here, there were water on the table unlike last time. I think cuz the manage/boss (in white, while other stuffs wear black) was here tonight but at the end of the day still none one time water refill and I think it was the manage/boss who help me order my last item the ICED RICE. Waited probably more then 20mins till my friend asked n found out no one was making it so we cancelled, took our check n left. Then I also found out they never provided a pen/pencil with the paper menu but luckily she had her own. Overall the foods was still good, menus have many options but the owner really need to straight out it front stuffs! read more

My family loves this place and we stop by whenever we're in Brooklyn. The service is great and the food has never disappointed. read more
A new place that just opened up recently. $33.99/pp for skewer hot pot but if you were to get the bbq and hot pot combined it'll be $45.99/pp. Came here on a Wednesday with 2 of my friends and we were seated promptly. They have 2 sections to this restaurant and theres also rooms for bigger parties. Each of the room is themed and I thought it was adorable. The food was like any other hot pot place except a majority of it was on skewers so you don't order it off the paper unless its the sliced meats. They also have vegetables too, an abundance of choices which was great. There is a section to grab the skewer items + vegetables, they also have a sauce bar, they also have a small appetizer section with crayfish, oranges and spicy pickled chicken feet. Service was extremely attentive, always checking on us. They also provided a complimentary fresh lobster on the house and a delicious rice cake dessert as well. I think they were thanking customers for stopping in and I think that makes them stand out from a lot of other places. Cannot wait to be back when I'm in the city again so hopefully they stay for good! read more
A new and discrete hotpot & bbq place that opened up on 8th Avenue. They do skewer all you can eat hotpot for $34, AYCE bbq for $40 and if you want to do both it's $46. There's is a lot of seating inside and they also have a cute area with a lot of cartoon characters on the other side. There was four of us and they have a deal where if you are a party of four, one person gets to eat free. We did hot pot and bbq all you can eat. Sauce station, skewer station and hot foods/fruits were located in the back. There is a wide assortment of skewers for hot pot and sauces. For the hot foods, there was crawfish and chicken feet. We had a great experience here. Hot pot was good and for the skewers, each order comes with a few sticks. We did tell the staff about the crab and clam not being fresh and they were super nice about it. They gave us a few extra clams and also went to check the crab area and ensure everything else was fresh. Also, I guess because they are newly opened, they gave us a free platter of food for the hotpot. There were clams, a lobster, and some other goodies in the platter. Overall, the dining experience was great because the staff were so nice and attentive. Food experience was good! I highly recommend this place for ayce hotpot & bbq. Also, there are a set of drinks included in the ayce experience. If you would like a smoothie, that would be extra charges. After the food, they gave us dessert and we got ice cream! read more

This was the only hot pot place open at the time, we were roaming around brooklyn trying to find hotpot and this was the only place to take us since they were open till 3AM. Late night hotpot takes you to another world haha. They let us know that the skewer station would only be open till 1:30AM however but we grabbed too many in the beginning anyways that we didnt need to go for a second round. My advice to you is to grab a few of everything to try first. There were a couple of beefs that I wasn't really a fan of. They have alcohol and also let us BYOB. The broth was good, they had good drinks, I loved the soymilk. And lot of variety to choose from. They also give you free sashimi sticks, it was salmon, abalone, and arctic clam, pretty good with the sauce. Only thing that makes it hard to come here again is probably the language barrier, nobody spoke much english or cantonese for me. But we still made do. And we basically had the place to ourselves, so it was nice and quiet, and the decor is pretty nice to look at. read more
