So sad to see them go. Xiao Long Kan was definitely one of our favorite hotpot spots in the area…read more The ingredients were always fresh, the soup bases were full of flavor, and we loved the sauces and side dishes at the DIY bar. Their weekday AYCE lunch was such a great deal too, with really generous portions and fair prices. Xiao Long Kan is also a well loved hotpot brand in China and has been a popular choice among hotpot lovers there for years. It was really nice to have one of their locations here in the area. Hopefully they are just looking for a new location and will reopen soon. We will definitely be looking forward to it.

The meats are always fresh. The buffet selections were a bit limited last night and they unfortunately didn't have that leafy celery that I love and always get a plateful of. Still a solid spot overall.

Price wise, I think it's okay for what you get and it's ayce, especially compared to some other shabu shabu places that charge something outrageous. Service is always good and quick. They check on us often for more meat and clearing away used plates. Tho it can take awhile to get seated when it's super busy and can get real loud in the restaurant. We always have a nice time eating here and we will keep coming back.

I had a hard time choosing where to go for dinner with my family. I wanted shabu shabu, but I…read moredidn't want AYCE. Nabemono came up, and I ended up choosing it over others. I read reviews which expressed frustration over the service, and I felt like that helped manage my expectations. I know it's a very tough time for restaurants, and I hope they are able to smooth things over soon. We were greeted when entered and we waited a bit to get seated. We were seated at a very large table, which felt funny since it was just three of us. It took some time to get menus. I walked up to grab them, but staff said they would bring it over. Once we ordered, food was quick to come out. Refill requests initially were promptly responded to, but as the first round of customers ended their meals, the service was backed up. It took some time to get refills and the check. Luckily we weren't in a hurry. The menu isn't entirely clear, so we had a couple ordering hiccups. Generally, easy problems to resolve. My family and I enjoyed the food. The vegetables, meat, and sauces tasted good. I really liked their goma dare (sesame sauce), which is my favorite part of shabu shabu. The brown rice portion was substantial, but the rice was reheated and dry. The ramen portion, while tasty was small, like ~1/3 of the rice portion. I personally, like to eat the carb throughout the meal, which means ordering more. The space is large with a lot of hard surfaces. I wouldn't say it is a quiet space--it is good for groups. We also sat closer to the door, so my elder family members were a bit cold while we waited. However, once the burners were going, it didn't feel as cold. The three of us ate for ~90 without tip, which can make sense for folks who don't want to pay $55pp for AYCE dinner. However, I think AYCE lunches at other restaurants during the week are a better value and can have smoother service. Just like many things in this world, my experience isn't black and white. There were things I liked and things that could be improved. I think it's worth a shot for others to try, as long as they can be open minded about the experience and patient.

We came in around 5:30 pm on a weekend. A lot of the ingredients were in low supply and the veggies didn't look fresh. We had to ask them to refill the beef because the container was completely empty. When we went to get our sauces, they had a limited selection compared to other hot pot/malatang places. They didn't have any sesame sauce available then, even though there was a label for it. The soup bases were alright. The tom yum flavor has a bit of a kick and the healthy bone soup was decent.

I have always come to Tasty Pot after my other favorite hot pot joint closed. It felt like not long…read moreago they rebranded, and this summer they were closed for construction again. Once they reopened, they changed their business model. Now you can choose your own soup base and ingredients, and they charge you by the weight of the food. Then they cook it for you and bring it to your table. The ambience hasn't changed much except that they now have stations where you can choose your ingredients. There are lots of options, and they have some pre-made items as well. I also like that they offer complimentary green tea. To me, that's not how I prefer my hot pot, as I like having a fire to keep my food warm. However, it's also nice to be able to choose exactly what you want in your hot pot.

They were very polite and simply asked us to settle the bill first, but they still let us sit, relax, and enjoy our dinner until closing time.

Thank you to the staff for making us feel welcome even though we arrived late. Great service and a very pleasant experience!

Classic AYCE hot pot Lunch $24.99 / Dinner $29.99…read more Pay $5 on top of hot pot price for unlimited dim sum. This was such a good deal! I got the classic ayce hot pot and mostly got the beef, lamb and pork belly for meats. There is a premium ayce option for $5-6 more but I was pretty satisfied with just the classic selections. I would rather pay the extra $5 to get dim sum, which was also not bad! I liked the siu mai, shrimp har gow (fave), and steam juicy dumplings. My bf liked the steamed chicken feet and garlic tripe as well (the tripe was p spicy). You order the dim sum with your server as the dim sum is made to order, which I preferred bc it comes out steaming hot. The buffet bar also has a variety of items from fried appetizers to veggie side dishes, fried rice, noodles and more!

I hope to see this restaurant open some other time, even if it's in a different place. From what I remember the soup was great, and the other foods we placed in them were almost nice. I didn't mind most of the things most people had problems with, namely, the "presentation." Honestly didn't really care because I really only enjoyed the food. The owner was also nice and chill, along with the rest of staff, hope they're doing well.

I hadn't been to this place in like 12 years prior to this dinner. I remember liking it a lot in…read morethe past. I do feel that this place needs to up their game. Other places have passed them by in some respects First there is no sauce bar here. Just four small containers of sauces you can use. Ironically none of those sauces are soy sauce. A darker possible peanut sauce, a sesame sauce, a pinkish possibly fermented tofu sauce and the standard chili oil. I wanted more as far as the sauce goes and I thought a sauce bar was pretty standard these days Second there is no AYCE bar with small snacks. Kind of interesting When ordering the meat, I guess they wanted to save a plate so the sliced meats just came in plastic containers. That loses some points with me on presentation Other than that everything is fine. They charge a little less for the broth than a lot of places do, so that's nice Got vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, noodles and a couple of meats. Overall it's a fine experience, mostly Ok to Good. But the lack of some things makes it more second tier for me and it would not be a go to hot pot place for me

Upfront- bad attitude of the new staff- turn out to be a relative of the owner…read more Message to the owners- you're both nice, the husband and wife, but your nephew, or your whatever relative,ruined our experience this time, completely. I've been here many times before and was a returning customer. I've also brought quite a few friends here in the past, which is why this experience was especially disappointing. They recently changed the menu, but none of the staff explained what was new or different. When we arrived, no one came to greet or seat us, so we were simply left standing there and had to figure things out ourselves. I understand that this is a self-service hot pot restaurant, so we don't expect a lot of service. However, even with minimal service required, the overall experience and attitude from the staff felt very poor this time. What makes this even more disappointing is that I used to enjoy coming to have hotpot here, returned many times, and even brought friends with me. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be coming back again.
