The decor was nice, and they have a sauce cart where you can make your own dipping sauce for the meat, which was a cool touch. Unfortunately, the service was REALLY lacking. I'm not sure if they were short-staffed, but no one came to refill our water the entire time. Our friend eventually had to go up and ask for a new pitcher. We also had to grab our own napkins and soup spoons, and even refill the broth ourselves by getting the kettle.

The meats were super fatty and tough and not super great quality. It's also not that sanitary too because people were picking up dishes and putting it back so they can get the "best one" There is a 90 min dining limit. We arrived at 5:58 and they asked us to checkout at 7:10 and told us we couldn't order anymore. Mind you we still had about 20 mins left! They clearly do not abide by their own policies. When asked, the server told us "we usually ask customers to leave earlier if it's busy". What? Great way to keep customers coming back lol, NOT. Also, their a/c was broken while we were there and it was so hot! No mentions or apologizing of this at all. Clearly customer service is not a priority... Will not revisit and I recommend you steer clear. There are better hot pot spots around.

The restaurant is spacious, which makes the dining experience comfortable. The food bar also has a great variety of options to choose from. We tried the dry pot, and compared to the soup base it was not as flavorful as we expected. It was still decent, but we were hoping for a bit more depth in the seasoning. One thing we noticed was that the employees would watch us closely every time we went to the sauce bar. They were probably just being attentive, but it did feel a little awkward. Overall, it is still worth visiting if you enjoy mala style hot pot.

They had so many different selections to choose from including veggies, tteokbokki, and even sushi! Come here hungry, and leave feeling questioning your eating habits:)

It's been quiet both times I've gone in - shocked this place isn't more popular. Definitely a relaxing environment, regardless.

I always get the sukiyaki pot, and my kids are obsessed with the Taiwanese pot. And for the sauce? We always ask them to mix all three together trust me, that combo hits every single time. One thing I love is that everything comes fully made and all in one pot for you. Unlike other hot pot spots where you have to pick and cook everything yourself, this is quick, easy, and stress-free. If you want something fast, comforting, and consistent this is the spot.

Pricing was fairly competitive too. $41.32 before tip for AYCE adult dinner & kid (under 6) dinner. Quiet spot, quick service, fresh ingredients.

The Chinese herbal soup was really flavorful. When the meat was soaking in it, I could taste the flavor that was soaked through. I highly recommend this base. The spicy soup was extra, but the reasoning they said was because it's from China. And even getting the very mild was pretty spicy. The concept of going to the four fridges and grabbing your hot pot ingredients was interesting. It's such a waste of skewers though! But the fridge had veggies, skewered meats, seafood, noodles, and much more. Since this is an all you can eat place, you can grab any item freely. I do think they will charge you if there's excess food leftover. Well, says the sign anyway. The lamb and beef were the only two free meat options, but you can order this as much as you can eat. The brown sugar rice cake and crispy fried pork were very unique items that's also in the unlimited menu option. There was also interesting tidbits at the bar area near the sauce bar like beef jerky bits, peanuts, and sweet potato balls with a taro interior. Overall very unique ingredients you can order or extra menu items like pig brain, duck jelly, duck tongue among others. Our group didn't venture into trying these though. The ingredients already included were just as good though.
