A classic spot if you're looking to satisfy your hotpot craving! I went with a group of seven and it was sooo incredibly busy on a cold weekend. We had reservations for 7PM but actually weren't seated until 7:30. You can bag your winter coats and they offer hair ties and bibs so you feel more comfortable. Make your own sauce you wait for the broth to arrive, and try their house special sauce with some hoisin! For AYCE hotpot only, it is $34/pp before tax/tip (they also offer BBQ for an additional price). Tip: If it's your birthday with a party of 4+, they also offer free hotpot discount if you show your ID (I believe it's at least 1 day +/- your actual birthday) so definitely let them know to take it off your receipt!
This is the best quality and value hotpot in the area! I love coming here - it's a staple.
I've been to this location twice and the interior is so beautiful. And the food as always is absolutely delicious. I tried the lamb for the first time and I must've ate three servings by myself. It was so good; 100% recommend. It was better than the beef. We got complementary desserts, which was nice. The service was pretty good. I will say a lot of our orders got messed up or not received after the first two rounds. But the staff was always willing to help out in the end anyway. So that's why I'm keeping it at five stars. Honestly, really great experience.
When my coworker told me that she never had hotpot, I wanted to help her cross that off her bucket list. On a Friday night, another coworker and I took her to LaoJie. We arrived at 7pm, we were told it was an hour and half wait. We should had made reservation. Thus, we went to a bubble tea place nearby. At 7:30pm, we received a call that our table was available. We got a little of everything. My newbie coworker said her favorite ingredient was the fungus. Go figure. I loved the tripe and fish balls. The other coworker loved the winter melon. I went basic with my soup. I chose tomato broth. The newbie went with the black chicken one. I was fascinated with the ingredients she kept taking out of it...a dried plum, red seeds and black chicken meat. The bill came out to $41 per person including tips. Since we paid with cash, the waiter gave us mango dessert, lemon honey drink and candies on the house.
GO TO spot for hot pot in bk! solid spot with friends and family. Food comes out pretty fast, portion sizes are good, and service was attentive!
10/24/25 8:15pm Wait 10 min online I called in to reserve my seat and table, the ambience and arts inside are amazing Very good service specially the young lady behind the counter Best customer service I experienced the music and base was hurting my wife I ask her could they lower the base because the beats are kinda loud She went all out and help us lower the volume
AYCE done right! I'm so wary of AYCE hotpot because I get really frustrated when you order something and it either takes forever to come or doesn't come at all. I'm primarily here to up my protein intake haha so I want as much beef as I can get! This isn't a problem here as the dishes will come almost TOO fast. Just kidding but it's super cool to see the servers bring plates of food with their entire arms stacked high. Professionals! I visited with 6 people for my friends birthday on a super bustling Sunday night - the space is really big and bright and smoky from the hotpot and bbq, such good vibes. We were seated and each got our own soup/burner! I chose tomato soup base which is really good generally but got a little bit too sweet for me towards the end. I'll stick to the pork bone broth next time. Again everything came super fast - no complaints at all with the service. You order the broths first with your server and then everything else you add to a cart on an iPad (4 units max per dish). There's a lot of beef styles, the fatty beef and also leaner as well as tender cuts. I love the shrimp and fish paste, as well as as the fish roe fish balls and enoki mushroom. General rule of thumb is just to cook until it floats. The sauce station is well stocked - they also refill during busy moments. I was super happy with my experience here! For $38pp and free if you visit with 4 people on your birthday, it's an awesome place for AYCE!
My friends and I ALWAYS dine here whenever we're craving hotpot. We usually come with a big group and get the private room if it is available. FYI, you need to spend a minimum of $288 to book the room. We came recently and everything is self order on an iPad now. While this is a nice change, it was very laggy and quite annoying. Ordering with the waiter would've been much quicker. The main reason why we come is for the milk tea pudding dessert at the end. We absolutely love that and it is so refreshing! I always get a cup or two to go. The food selection isn't bad for hotpot and it is always fresh. The spicy beef is one of my favorite to get! The sauce station is a disaster at times. I wish they paid more attention to that. The area can be a mess, sauces would be low/empty, different sauces going into other sauces and the bowls/handles can be dirty at times. Onto the staff. The waiters are SO nice! They are quick, efficient and polite. We never had any issue with the waitstaff. But my most recent dining experience, I encountered the girls at the cashier and they were so rude! There was a miscommunication with the bill and they were so rude about it. We were in a rush to leave so I didn't want to argue and ended up paying more than what I should have. That left such a bad impression after coming here for years. Just a tip, give the bill to your waiter instead and avoid the girls at the cashier.
LaoJie is my spot for ayce hot pot, especially on a cold winter day. I always try to make a reservation since walk ins usually have a 30 minute wait. I came on New Year's Day, and the place was packed, but my 6 PM reservation saved me. This time, I got the bone broth, but the tomato broth is usually my favorite, very flavorful! The bone broth is more mild but still good. They switched to using iPads to order, and it's such a great update! I do wish they provided us wet wipes to clean the iPad as we don't know who touched the iPad last. You can order every 8-9 minutes, and the food comes out fast. It is way more convenient than waiting on a server to take your order. While you wait, you can mix your own sauce at the sauce bar. My go to is their specialty sauce with garlic, scallions, and a little chili oil. The ingredients are always fresh, and there's so much variety from veggies to meats to seafood. At the end of your meal, you get their milk pudding for dessert, which is so good, plus some gum or guava candy when you pay. The only downside this time was that the floor was wet and slippery since it was so busy, but the staff at this location is super nice, way friendlier than other LaoJie spots I've been to. Definitely worth checking out, and make sure you come hungry!
An absolutely solid choice for AYCE hotpot -- the price is reasonable in my opinion for the quality and variety they offer. From my experience, most AYCE hotpot places stick to basic, simple broths, but I was really impressed by the options here. The pots are individual, I opted for the Herbal soup base, and it was delicious -- flavorful and aromatic. They offer all the essential hotpot ingredients, with a fantastic variety of veggies, soy products, fish balls and more. The selection is truly unmatched, and they even have seafood like clams, which were massive. The interior and ambiance were great, and the service was excellent. The staff came around regularly to clear empty dishes and take our orders. A nice touch was the complimentary dessert -- a milk tea pudding (I think?). Overall, Laojie Hotpot provided a great AYCE hotpot experience, and I would definitely recommend giving it a try!
Food: This has always been one of my top hot pot places in NYC! Food quality is high and they offer a variety of items. The broth and sauces did seem better years ago when they first opened, but overall I still like this place for hot pot. They have the typical hot pot items, but some unique ones are blue crabs, brown sugar rice cakes, pumpkin cakes, fried bread with condensed milk and handmade shrimp paste and fish paste. The selection of broths include pork bone, tomato, winter melon, herbal, and spicy. At the end of the meal, you get milk tea pudding as a dessert which is included in the meal. It's a two hour time limit, but they don't kick you out if the restaurant is not busy. Service: Service has always been excellent here. They come around to collect your empty dishes and also offer to change your plates. They refill your broth when they see your pot is getting empty. They are also very friendly and nice about taking your order and asking if you want anything else. Ambiance: The decor and ambiance is very nice here. Seating is very spacious and comfortable. They have small and large tables that accommodate any size group. Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant!
Worth it AYCE. Always my go to spot ever since this location opened. Always good for hotpot. Service is usually decent just a bit of time in between serving. The environment though is always too loud. Music is always playing so loud to the point that I can't have a conversation with the people at my table.
Street parking only. Ambiance is not bad. Staff is overall friendly. You could do hotpot and BBQ combo but you pay a few dollars more for that. We went for hotpot only because we wouldn't be able to eat much so we didn't want to waste money or food. Individual pot. A few choices for the soup bases. A lot on the menu but a lot of items seem to be similar. Some items on the menu are not included in the buffet style. Drink is not included in the buffet fee either. I wish they just include everything. Why bother to call it buffet when many items are not included... The fried bun is just ok. Not enough condense milk. The sauce bar is not bad. It has most popular sauces for hotpot.

Came as a party of 7 on a Saturday night. It was packed, per usual. We made a reservation for 7pm and still had to wait ~35 min for an available table! We got seated at a large table upstairs. Everyone here gets individual pots, however if you're a party 6+, the extra folks are likely sharing a pot with someone. We order our hotpot items off iPads + beverages are an additional charge. Servers are prompt and clear finished plates efficiently. Their dessert was a yummy mango jelly pudding. If it's someone's birthday, that person eats free, as long as there's a party of 4+. If there are 2 bday people, the party must be 8+. Standard + reliable hotpot spot in the neighborhood that's always packed for a reason. Great AYCE price with plenty of standard hotpot options. Lots of neighborhood regulars! read more
I've been to this LaoJie and their other locations more than I can count. It is a great place to have hangouts or to celebrate birthdays and other occasions since they have plenty of seating and it's a set price per person for AYCE. In my most recent visits, I do feel like their service has gone down in terms of how fast the food comes out. It's been slower and they always seem to be missing items so we'd have to ask for it again or order it on the tablet again. They're especially slown on bringing out the meats. Sometimes I feel like I'm just eating AYCE veggies. Eventually the meat does come but the long wait just kinda kills vibe and makes the meal less satisfying. read more

AYCE Hotpot $31.98 per person. SERVICE: People came to add more water to our soup and responded to our additional requests often. SOUP BASE: They have an interesting variety. I always get the herbal soup base whenever I go out for AYCE. Glad I tried the Dark chicken, Satay, Wolfberry soup base. My friend got the herbal soup base and there were mini pieces of garlic and maybe dried shallots? SAUCES: They had the sauces in the front. Tried their house special sauces but didn't really taste too special to me. MEATS: The fatty beef slices were good, your typical hotpot staple. The pork slices are OK. For other people who may not eat beef this could be an option. They also had lamb slices too and I wanted to try that but was afraid it might be gamy. Will give it a try next time haha SEAFOOD: I feel like they don't have much variety. My friend is FJ and they eat a lot of seafood and she mentioned that there wasn't as much. VEGGIES: They have your typical hotpot veggies. DESSERT: I like their milk tea pudding? Overall, a great hotpot place in the neighborhood. read more
Came here for their BBQ for Valentine's Day and made a reservation early. Quite surprising that there wasn't a line though every table seemed to be occupied throughout the night. Not exactly a "romantic" place for a date but dinner is dinner. First time trying their BBQ selection and even though it isn't anything fancy it was quite delicious. The server cooked for us throughout the night so we didnt have to which was nice. Though I usually enjoy meats the vegetables kinda stole the show. Eggplants, mushrooms, and corn were our favorites. For meats, the house marinated beef was delicious though it might be a bit sweet for some. But the nice thing about AYCE is you can try a bit of everything and order more if you enjoy it. read more
There are 2 floors and can fit group size of at least 10. They also have 2 private rooms for large groups. I've been here for their kbbq and hot pot. Your group must order the same - either one or the other or bothz For hot pot, everyone gets their individual pot with their choosing of soup base. I ordered the bone broth, which was good. We ordered the fish fillet, minced fish fillet, fish roe ball, corn, beef of all sorts, mini sausage, cabbage, watercress, etc etc. For kbbq, we ordered - special beef- tastes good, a bit sweet -honey beef- chewable, taste not as strong -beef cubes -steak- not very chewable -cheese corn- very creamy -cheese mussels- good if you like mussels -pineapple- sweetest pineapple ive had There is a server who helps you cook for the kbbq option. Their dessert here is really good. Parking is hard to find at night, but possible. Parking during the day is def possible. read more
Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday a few weeks ago. We made reservations for the family (7 of us + 1 baby). Brought an ice cream cake for them to store away. Our table was upstairs and we always have great amazing services here. Food quality/ingredients are always fresh and great. Recently, I really enjoy the Brown Sugar Rice Cake appetizer as the rice cake is grilled and coated in brown sugar. Yummmy! A nice sweet treat while eating hot pot. read more
I'm always seeking out a good hot pot restaurant, and Lao Jie Hotpot did not disappoint. I was very impressed by the environment. Upon entering the restaurant, you knew something nostalgic, yet modern was coming. The decorations in the lobby bring you back to the 60s, but the loud music and large music video screen reminds you that you're in 2023. The food was very fresh, and the variety of offerings was adequate. However, I think there should be more meats besides fatty beef, fatty lamb, and fatty pork. Service was fantastic. They checked on us and topped off our hotpot with soup frequently. Overall, everything was fresh and delicious, and the mango pudding was the "cherry on top." I would gladly come back for more next time I'm in the area. read more

This location has karaoke on the second floor. The first floor is the usual hotpot or korean bbq buffet. My friend and I came here on a Friday evening around 9 pm. There was a short wait before we were seated. We both got the hotpot. We got the tomato and chicken soup base. There was quite an assortment of vegetables and meats to choose from. The servers bring you the foods raw and you cook them in the broth. We stayed for about 2 hours. They provided us with complimentary mango rose water dessert. My friend thought it was the best tasting item in the entire meal. read more

My friends and I came here for my birthday on a Saturday. It was busy as expected so we had to wait a bit to get acknowledged and people were singing karaoke so it was loud but other than that, our experience was good here. Our waitress was quick and attentive and made sure there was always food on our table. The portions are generous and fresh. It was also one of my friend's first time doing hotpot. Her experience here made her want to come back. Being how busy it was in the restaurant, we were particularly rushed nor did it feel overwhelming in there. It's always busy on the weekends so it's recommended to reserve table or you'll be waiting for a while. read more
This was a really great experience, I love the all you can eat option and the different choice of protein you can choose just with the seafood selection alone. The staff was attentive and I got the birthday discount 10/10. read more

Overall: 5/5 This is probably my favorite ayce hotpot spot. They have a great variety of hotpot ingredients. The meat is fresh and I love the desserts and sides they have. They also have the brown sugar rice cakes I love. Staff is super kind and attentive as well. Always a great time here! When you're done with your meal, they give you a milk tea pudding, which is super good! Wish they had that on the menu haha. read more
The restaurant is pretty big with 2 floors for dining. It's a reasonably priced ayce hot pot. We all had our own broth and pot which I love. I had the tomato broth and it's good. All the ingredients were fresh and yummy. We ordered duck blood, tripe, fish, ramen, glass noodles, enoki, beef lamb, beef tongue, black fungus, taro, dumplings, fish balls with roe, lobster balls, quail eggs, rice cake and tong ho. Service was great. They kept stopping by to check on us. read more

Went in around the afternoon time and it wasn't too busy (4pm ish). The vibe of the place is relaxing and I was able to easily converse with friends. The waiter was tentative to our meat and portioned everything out for us. They knew which cuts of meat we were eating and what they were cooking which was nice. They weren't tentative on refilling the water but that's okay because we had free drinks due to paying with cash. Would recommend and come back read more

Came here with a group of 6. We called in beforehand to see if there were any tables ready. They told us if we came within 30 minutes, they would have a table ready for us. Tried an assortment of things from the hot pot selection and it was not too bad. Service was also not too bad. They offer bags to put in your jackets and clothing, but you have to ask! However, the thing I was disappointed as some of us in the party wanted kbbq while some wanted hot pot, as we could only select one option for the whole entire group. I am aware that some places only offer these options and some do not, due to not wanting to share the different options from both menus, but was disappointed that this establishment was one of those. Nonetheless, solid experience. read more
Don't remember if Laojie offered kbbq before, but on Friday night when I went they now offer kbbq! (Make sure you call ahead for reservation) And so worth it. For hot pot and kbbq together, it comes out to around $48 a person. Overall, since it's ayce I would recommend trying everything! Some of my fave items for hot pot was the clams (they're massive), fatty beef, fish roe balls and for kbbq all the meat was great along with the cheesy corn and garlic enoki mushroom. Saw they now have a Chinatown location too, so don't fret for the non Brooklynites missing out on the Laojie experience. read more
Came here on multiple occasions and requested a room instead of the main dining area. My favorite thing about Lao jie is their milk tea pudding dessert- can't help but yo say that first ha. Honestly the best dessert a hot pot place can serve- refreshingly good and you can order a cup to go ($6) which I normally would! Back to the hotpot- their broth is very flavorful and they offer a lot of items! One of my favorite things to order from them is the fish paste where you can control how much to put in your pot and how big the pieces should be! I like to order their giant clams as well although im not entirely sure how long they should cook for so I usually keep it in the pot for a longer time and it gets a little chewy. One thing to note though is if you come with a big party, check to make sure they're not overcharging you for things that you ordered but never came and had to ask multiple times for- the times I came, they'd charge for our drinks (the number of times we asked) but we would only get the drinks a handful of those times. Can be easily overlooked but just make sure to keep track! Overall, very good hotpot place with LOTS of people especially on Fridays and the weekends. read more
