    Well sauced and not overly so. Really delicious selections
    Trung N.

    Honestly a really great experience! I'm not entirely sure when this place opened up down here but its really clean. The entrance lights are a really cool touch despite how old the building is. My friend and I got seated immediately (right before dinner rush) and while we were allocated a new waiter to Kpot, a more experienced waiter came and made sure we were going to be well taken care of. Shout out to... man i shoulda asked how to spell her name but... it's pronounced "Ee-vian" I'll have to revisit and get her name right for justice The only item on the menu tonight that was missing were the scallops which was a bummer considering its at the beginning of dinner time. For how quickly busy it became, everything came out in super fast. There were staff near the sauce bar keeping it clean and organized, and the new waiter kept our grill new and replaced it frequently. One qualm is the sauce bar is quite wide to reach the back side to get stuff so i find my face literally up to the glass shield. Not necessarily enough to touch it but uncomfortably in my face. Tbh I was so hungry I forgot to take more pictures than just my food so I'ma have to redeem myself in the near future :P

    Cousins, look at here if you want to eat good and cook your own food, you can still go to KPot. They'll have all the trimmings you need to make it just how you like it. Tonight was a celebration for my Sugar Bear. He is turning 50. we celebrated all weekend long and after we rested all day, we came here for dinner with the girls. We had a great time discovering and experiencing food that we've never eaten before such as snails, something that looks like a scallop, but it's not, I was digging in on the ribeye and the crab legs. The miso soup broth was amazing and I love that they kept bringing out the food once we requested it on the iPad. The bill was about $35 per person. The only thing I would add is the ability to have your own table space for all the extra dishes that you are not using once you start cooking the meats and proteins. We had a great time and there's been a running joke even though it's his birthday to have the restaurant sing to him. He just giggles like a little kid . Thank you and Paul our waitress for taking the time to make my bay feel so special.

    UPDATE: Running it back with a pretty laid back review, this place is still pretty good. Only complaint this time is that sometimes the service seemed too fast (as in getting 20 items at once) and too slow at other points in the meal (waiting 10 minutes for a grill change) but it didn't annoy us too much. Other than that, I absolutely adore the amount of different options there are for both the hotpot and Korean BBQ. As someone who primarily orders beef only for my meat, I'm so thrilled every time I open the menu to see like 20 beef options total. I'd personally like to see more noodle and soup base options for the hotpot specifically, as I think that part of the restaurant experience is slightly weaker than the KBBQ part, but these are all just minor gripes. Place is still amazing and I hope it stays that way.

    Our server Annie!

    This is the 2nd time we've been back and omg, it taste much better than the first. The first time we came was during opening month and I can tell that they've worked out a lot of their kinks here and there. The meat quality and taste are much better. Hotpot was delicious! I loved all of my experience today. The ambiance was on point as always too! Oh BY THE WAY, their boba is delicious and tapioca is the perfect softness! Will definitely be back! Yall should request Annie as a server too, because she was exceptional today!

    Very very good food :D Workers were nice, service was good :) Price high but I get it and is very worth it Would come again to Korean BBQ and if I could I would give it 6 stars

    Annyeong (Korean for hello)! The Clear Lake/NASA area has been once again blessed with another new eatery, and it's the second Korean BBQ joint to open in a two-year span. As a few of you Yelpers know, I began 2024 in the hospital and couldn't eat out as much as I tried to figure my new diet out. KPOT threw open its doors while I battled for my life so it ended up on the list of places I wanted to try as soon as I got better. Summer is the season of the grill, but why sweat it out when there's a restaurant like this? KPOT's main draw is that diners can choose to have the traditional BBQ, hot pot, or both. For our inaugural visit, my younger brother and I decided on the BBQ. It was quite busy on the afternoon of the last day of June, but we were quickly seated and Alan took care of us right away. And so ensued our dinner. We stocked up on mostly bolgogi and galbi, which were complemented by generous helpings of banchan, cabbage, and rice. Unlike other Korean places, KPOT allows customers to select their own banchan and sauces from a small buffet setup in the back. What's my verdict? A target unlocked. No more making an hours-long trek to Spring Branch for real. Rest assured KPOT deserves another visit from me.

    If you want some good hotpot close to home. Try this place it is buffet style and one price eat till you drop and no take home doggie bags. Delicious you have to try the pot special broth if you don't do pork! Service was great! They were tentative and always aware of the table. It was not super busy when I went through. The ambiance definitely gives buffet renovations. It is nothing to crazy just a clean slate style for easy cleanup. There is a K-pop area so you have been warned.

These aren't your average donuts--these are mochi-style, which means you get that perfect balance of crisp on the outside and that delightfully chewy, stretchy bite inside. Think hybrid between a donut and a soft rice cake--but better. I tried three flavors and each one delivered not only in taste, but also in presentation: Strawberry Pocky - The pink glaze is rich but not overly sweet, with a mellow fruity flavor that pairs beautifully with the crisp strawberry Pocky stick laid across the top. It's playful, photo-ready, and honestly a fun one to start with. Cookies & Cream - This was the most indulgent of the three. The crushed cookie crumbles on top add a nice contrast in texture to the soft mochi base. The glaze is creamy, with a subtle vanilla-oreo vibe that doesn't overpower. White Chocolate + Chocolate Drizzle + Star Sprinkles - This one felt festive and nostalgic, almost like a vanilla birthday cake remix. The red, white, and blue stars added crunch and charm, while the white glaze and chocolate drizzle gave it that extra richness. Each donut is a satisfying experience--not overly dense, just the right amount of sweetness, and incredibly fun to eat. You can tell they're made fresh, and they hold up well even after a few hours (if you can resist that long). Friendly staff, clean shop, and flavors that rotate regularly? This place is definitely going in my dessert rotation when I am in the area.

The restaurant was…read moreclean, well-organized, and the atmosphere felt comfortable for both small groups and solo diners. The broth was flavorful but not overly salty, which worked perfectly for cooking the meats and vegetables. The beef slices were thin and fresh, cooking quickly in the broth and staying tender. The vegetable platter was generous and included a nice variety like cabbage, mushrooms, tofu, and noodles. One thing I liked was the sauce bar--there were several options like ponzu, sesame sauce, garlic, and chili so you could customize the flavor exactly how you want. Service was friendly and attentive. The staff explained how to cook the ingredients properly, which is helpful if you're new to shabu-shabu. The only small downside was that it can get a bit busy during peak dinner hours, so you might have to wait for a table. Overall, it's a great spot if you're craving fresh hot pot and a casual dining experience. I'd definitely come back again.

I did try all of the meats and it was a lot of food but every cut was great! Nice open restaurant with plenty of seating and arranged so you feel as if you have your own space. The only reason I dropped it by a star was that there was only one person waiting on a large portion of the guests. She really tried hard and this is not a knock on her. But even though it was a slow night she struggled to keep up at times. I would have given it 4.5 if I had the choice.

I didn't feel like studying the menu, so asked the cashier what he recommended. He said the symphony box was his favorite so that's what i ordered. The symphony box didn't disappoint! The chicken was probably some of the best i've had, and the egg rolls were also delicious. I ordered mine with fried rice which was tasty as well. The inside is set up so you pay/order, get a number, self seat yourself, and they bring your food out once it's ready. There's some cool arcade games along the left wall. Would definitely come back here again if i'm in the area to try something else! It seems really popular among the locals for as busy as it was when i stopped in for lunch on a weekday.

Now, we were aware that the ultimate bowls would have large portions because our friend warned us about that, but we were not expecting the chicken zoodle bowl to also be the same size. The portions here were huge. We did not finish any of the items that we got and had to take everything to go and were able to eat it for another 1-2 meals. They were really generous with the amount of protein given and the flavors were good. The pricing was really worth it also.
