My new favorite resturant in Columbus. All you can eat too! Been twice. Service has been wonderful. The tip is a shared pot so be mindful. They have a robot that brings drinks​

Like mushrooms,, kbbq and hotpot joints have been spawning all over Columbus of late. Meetpot is a truffle - a special one in the midst of Columbus. While their hot pot broth leaves a little to be desired, their kbbq really shines and if I were to be honest to myself, I came here for meats anyways. Their shortrib is thickly sliced which maximizes on the chee that plays really nicely with the flavourful cut. They also have tni foil dishes and frog legs which is something that you don't really see anywhere else. They are currently in their soft opening phase so the question remains to be seen if they are consistent but worth a try!

As we starting the new year, so is the hot pot and bbq place still going strong. Here we have another hot pot and bbq place opened up, Meet Pot. The space is very spacious and occupied the old Wurst Und Bier space. The format is similar to other hot pot and bbq place. Have options to opt in for either hot pot or bbq or pick both. Appetizers, sauce bar and dessert are self serve. Some differences would be on the menu items. They have more seafood option for both hot pot and bbq. For hot pot, love they have the honeycomb tripe For BBQ, other than the menu items, the sauce and seasoning would be slightly less and leaning toward the Chinese bbq style. Which they have dry seasoning option like spicy bbq and spicy cumin. Another things that stand out would be the tin foil bbq items. I tried the Shrimp with Vermicelli and love it. They also have bubble tea and snow ice available, which are not cover inside the all you can eat. They just opened up and currently in soft opening. Service is great but food may take some time to come out when they are busy. Be Patience and enjoy your time.

We all got the soup n bbq with all the extras

Great fresh food. Clean and modern. Staff excellent and very friendly. Priced competitive with others that offer the same. The 6 of us will be back

A great addition to the growing hotpot/BBQ scene here in Columbus. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. The restaurant has an excellent sides/sauces bar and ice cream as well! I've been to just about every hotpot place in the Columbus area and this one is right up there with the best. Reasonable prices as well. We had lunch, but the dinner menu looks awesome as well. Very clean inside and still has that shiny new look about it.

Omg!!! Meet Pot & BBQ is the place to go! Everything from the food, staff and the cleanliness of the restaurant was spot on! The food was fresh and the soups were so tasty. Our waiter Eric was so sweet and nice and took the time to explain everything! Run don't walk to the place! You will not regret it!!

This place is not K-BBQ like some have said it is. It's Chinese cuisine. For the price, it's decent and a good value. Friendly service too.

It was not crowded when we arrived around 2 pm, but apparently they just recovered from a huge opening rush that had people waiting to be seated. On one side of the restaurant there's hot pot tables (burner in the middle for your broth), and the other side is regular wooden table for people that want regular dishes and/or dim sum only. We got seated right away at a hot pot table because we wanted to get stuff from both menus. There daily dim sum offering is on a separate paper menu that you mark down how many servings you want of whatever tickles your fancy. Our server Kwan was fantastic! This was my parents first time for hot pot, and he did a great job explaining the process, what the sauce bar was all about, and how to order from their dim sum menu. We picked their mushroom broth, which I liked. For protein, we got the Supreme Beef & Lamb Combo for hot pot. Meats were displayed on a separate board (beef on one end, lamb opposite). Loved the assortment of veggies that come along; also liked that those veggies are served separately from the meat so it makes it easier to pick and choose what you want to eat. It was a super fun experience. I've done hot pot one other time many years ago, and I would make the same one suggestion for here, too: Wish there were dividers given to put in the broth to make it easier to ascertain which items are yours after dropping them in the liquid; it's hard to keep an eye on your very-thin beef shaves because it sinks before floating and easily gets pushed and mixed around. The dim sum was absolutely delicious! I got a few of the same things I got on my last (1st) visit, and shared a few new dishes. Their Black Truffle Siu Mai were excellent! Fantastic mushroom flavor, and each were big and filling. I highly recommend those, mmmm. Also loved the Crispy Minced Pork Dumplings! A thin fried outside around a bao-like wrapping, with minced pork and I think Kwan said mushrooms. I think Coco's is a new favorite. Their menus are full with a lot of flavors and dishes to pick from. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. There's plenty of free parking, and in my experiences, staff are friendly helpful and efficient. I'll definitely be returning to try more!

Seriously my favorite thing to do/eat in Columbus. Whenever I'm stressed or needing comfort, I ask…read moreto come here. We usually get hot pot and have not tried the bbq. There are many broth options to choose from and several of those are vegetarian, so I can get something different every time. You can even switch out broths if you want to try something else. I've tried a lot of the broths but my favorites are miso, mushroom, and spicy kimchi. Once you choose your broth, you have a variety of veggies, meats, and noodles to choose from to add to your pot. It's great that I can come with meat eaters and we are not committed to the same experience as we each get our own pots. Some of my favorite add ins are tofu, cauliflower, mushrooms, water cress, sweet potato, taro, and fried tofu. There are also several good meat add ins, as other people I've been there with love it too. The restaurant is spacious and the staff is kind and helpful. You also get a QR code at your table so if you want more add ins you can request them without bothering anyone. You can also customize your experience by grabbing some things from the self service bar. I like to add scallions, garlic, and red pepper flakes. I've been with a group of six and also with one other person and have enjoyed it every time. Not only is it tasty but it is also a really fun activity.

We got online to get on the waitlist, it stated 30-40 mins. We got to the restaurant 35 mins later…read more Waited outside for an hour and a half for them to come out to us tell us that they weren't serving anymore Korean bbq. I said that was the entire reason we were there. The manager told us that 1) they were still serving Korean bbq.... 2) their online waitlist isn't accurate 3) there was still 5 parties in front of us (more than 5 empty tables) I understand being short staffed but there was BARELY an apology. Absolutely no reason to come back here. DO NOT TRUST THEIR ONLINE WAITLIST.

Quick and attentive service. We started with crispy dumplings (6), crispy egg rolls (2), and a scallion pancake. Bing, their crepe, wasn't available our night. My dining companions loved the pancake - for me perhaps a bit too much drizzled sauce. It was helpfully quartered when brought to the table so sharing was easy. The dumplings were indeed crispy and probably my favorite with a standard dark dipping sauce. The egg rolls were standard and perhaps a bit undersized and over fried, but a good creamy dipping sauce was a pivot away from the sweet chili sauce that usually accompanies such apps. Ramen is clearly the focus of the menu and three of us had ramen with chicken and one with pork. They spoke favorably of the broth and the combos of mushrooms, boiled egg, greens. I had the rice vermicelli with chicken that they called a salad. I was expecting the classic Vietnamese staple but this one had some adaptations, perhaps to a fusion or one might say less ethnic nod. Small things but the ample portion served in a small bowl made it hard to mix the rice noodles, lettuce, carrot, cucumber and chicken that is a common approach to the dish after drowning all the ingredients in both sweet sauce (nuoc cham), siracha and/or hoisin sauce. It only came with the nuoc cham. They brought Siracha when I asked for it, but I'm a fan of having these condiments on the table standard. Again, had the sense that the business lunch crowd that is probably the primary audience isn't likely to be as focused on the more authentic ingredients. The chicken was also not grilled and sliced but had a pleasant preparation. Just know it won't be the charred flavor that is so common. Finally, not to obsess on this one dish, but cutting the lettuce leaves more would enable easier chop sticks combos of the ingredients in single bites. Overall it worked for us. I am definitely the most focused on (my companions would say obsessed) on connection to what these dishes should be. If adaptations work well for you, Tiger+Lily likely will as well.

I opted for delivery and was looking for a quick soup. Another helpers picture caught my attention and they offered free delivery on dash. Food arrived really fast, piping hot, and was absolutely delicious. I had the Dapanji stirred noodles which was silky and smooth and packed with flavor. The chicken was chunks of thigh meat on the bone and had bell peppers and potatoes. Sounds simple but MAN! Delish! It also had fresh noodles in a separate container. I also ordered hot n sour just in case I didn't like it, and I tasted it but couldn't put the Dapanji down. Hot n sour was also fantastic (leftovers for lunch tomorrow!). The eggroll was so so fresh and crispy. Not oily at all and the texture of the meat (white meat chicken) and veggies was PERFECT! This was probably the best door dash meal I have ever had. I must try eating in the restaurant soon! Side note, they also packed everything in the cutest containers and included utensils (spoon, chopsticks, toothpick)

The experience is very authentic with the meat options being plentiful. I do wish that the menu had a little bit more flexibility, since it seems like the options for two people are much different from the options for four people. We came for a friend's birthday and we were a party of three and we ordered the most expensive option. It was way too much food and could easily feed 4 to 6 people depending on how hungry you are, and the quality of the meat was excellent. Everything was displayed beautifully and it had so many options of meats and veggies. It is definitely (obviously) better quality than the AYCE options in the area. I will say that it was expensive though. That may be our fault because we were splitting it for three people, and if we split it for 4-5 people, that would have been less expensive but was still a bit more expensive than what I would want to pay for a Korean barbecue in Columbus, Ohio, but you do pay for the quality and the service so I'd definitely be back for a special occasion. I also really want to try out their karaoke room!
