    This place is fantastic! You pick your own marinated meats and seafood from a buffet bar, And your vegetables and sides from conveyor belt! You then cook your food and grow right at your table and they bring you out a giant pot for you to make your own hot pot! Thank ​You pay one price barbecue and hot pot. Completely reasonably priced, service is great, food is fresh and delicious! Definitely my new favorite place!

    Stopped by with my son for dinner after work. We were there around 630 and business was starting to pick up. The restaurant was pretty full by the time we left. The waitress came by as soon as we sit and explained everything to us. We had hotpot and bbq. The hotpot is good but the bbq was my favorite. Salmon, pork chops, lobster balls, qual eggs, shrimp, chicken, squid, several types of beef, scallops, mussels, and so much more. All delicious and cooked to perfection (lol). They even had ice cream (and cake) available for desert, and a make-your-own sauce station. Very positive experience and we're already talking about bringing his boys.

    More items for your hot pot soup and table grill

    What a fun food experience and treat to share with family and friends! Every table has a personal hot pot with choice of soup base and a shared grill- right on the table. Epic amount and cross-section of fresh meat, fish and veges that you can take for your soup and your grill. Even has a conveyor belt bringing other specialty food items that you add to your own culinary masterpiece. Go with family & friends and plan for a good amount of time as everyone has such a great time creating their soups and grilling their meats exactly like they like them! Very friendly staff that helps you get acclimated to the setup and offer lots of suggestions to get you started.

    We've enjoyed a few Hot Spot places around Tampa Bay and found ourselves in Springhill and saw this new one, well you gotta try out new places. I can say our service greatly lacked "any service." Other than sit here, what drink do you want, that was it, and picking up the dishes. No, "have you tried hot pot before, are you familiar how it works, here is the temperature gauge, there are the BBQ items, any questions," would have been nice! I did see one employee cooking BBQ for two elderly ladies and engaging frequently with them. Our server never came back and our drinks were plopped on our table by the guy who picked up our dishes. Not a good way to good way to make an impression with me. The server, I mean dish picker upper,dropped off our base soup. I chose the vegetable soup and my date chose the Tom Yum soup. I'd skip the vegetable soup, it was literally water with 2 bok choy , it had absolutely no flavor whatsoever. My date stated the Tom Yum soup had some flavor but very hard to define or describe. He didn't recommend it. We enjoyed, as always being able to add items to our soups, off the conveyor. I desperately tried to get some kind of flavor into my broth so my additions would have flavor, but I couldn't get a flavor I enjoyed and hardly added anything but noodles, mushrooms, scallions, tofu and corn. I ended up throwing the ingredients on the BBQ with sauce and that helped. The BBQ items to choose from where plenty and dish picker upper replaced our BBQ once when it began to burn. We couldn't find the temperature gauge for the BBQ and he only came if we got up to get items. Back to the "I like service!" Our favorite thing was the desserts and we did try them all. As for the Soups, "blah", not a winner. BBQ I give a good rating, but would have given higher if someone would have shown me where to turn down the temperature so I didn't scorch my food. Overall, the experience for the taste and price was not a win for us, we've had much better tasting soup bases, service, and more variety on the conveyor and seasonings.

    The hot pot table

    We had tried a Mr. hot pot up north while visiting family and were extremely pleased. And when we discovered there was a Mr. hot pot here near us We had to try it. We were extremely pleased. As we entered we were greeted by some very nice people, all smiles, all happy to see us. We were seated right away. On the side of the table there is a conveyor belt with small plates of different types of foods which you select from to go into your hot pot. You have a choice of vegetable soup, miso soup, meat, soup, different types of broth. you turn on your burner place your hot pot with the juice in and as the vegetables, whatever you want put in your hot pot as it passes by you grab it and you dump it into your hot pot. Also, you can look at some of the videos. They have different types of meats or veggies of all kinds that you can go and pick up to either put in your hot pot or cook in your grill, which is in the middle of the table. They give you plenty of butter and after your butter melts then you can put your meats or whatever you want and cook it that way or you can put whatever you select into your hot pot. We were very happy and it was my daughters birthday. She and her husband and son had a wonderful experience. They had never been to anything this unique. After our meal, the employees came out and they sang happy birthday. In the picture you can see they gave her a hat and some happy birthday glasses and some gifts and they were very nice gifts too! and a small cake. It was very well done. The food was delicious. The broth was delicious. The ambience was traditional, very clean and Employees were extremely helpful. They came by often gathered plates refilled our drinks, and they have some of the Boba teas I've found. If you've never experienced Asian cuisine like this, this is a treat for you. I would definitely put it on a must try list. It's fun and something different. recommended and we'll go back again. It is a little pricey, but not for the amount of food that you get to eat you can keep going and going and going and the price is still the same and I believe it cost us about $35 a person which was very well worth it for all the the everything that we received and the superb service.

    I have been here close to 10 times now. Consistent local hot pot. The sauce bar is my favorite. This is not a fancy hot pot and if you get Shabu in various places you need to set expectation on where you are. With that said I keep going back because I enjoy it. The only down side is they don't have pork belly for hot pot on the Korean barbecue. The spicy broth is spicy... that should be self explanatory but sometimes it's not! They do a nice job of cleaning the tables as they turn over. The bathrooms are also clean.

    Best kbbq and hot pot

    Soooooooo, my wife is from the west coast and since moving to Florida she has said numerous times how much she misses Korean BBQ. We've tried many of them in the TB area but all have left her disappointed. Keep in mind my wife is super booghie Saw this place open up a bit ago and finally convinced her to try it. She was reluctant cause it's in Spring Hill but finally agreed. This place is amazing!!! The owner was super nice and chatted with us for a bit. This is like the old school Korean BBQs that allow you to go get your own portions, sauces, sides and all. The conveyer belt of sides and desserts is fun! Food was fresh, the staff was very nice and attentive and the pricing is solid for hot pot and K BBQ. My wife was happy and achieving that is NO easy task.....trust me . This place is one of the best things to come to that area in a long time. We will be back.

    Wow!!! Our family of 8 ate here for dinner enjoying both the hot pot and the BBQ grill. Restaurant was very clean and everything we ate was delicious. Service was so friendly and staff were over the top kind. To top it off they sang to my daughter for her birthday! 10 stars all the way- we will be back for sure! -Christina

They had then sliced cuts of beef also brisket and pork. They had tripe octopus different shrimp. And another section they had all the sauces and different spices you could select from. The food was absolutely delicious. We had such a good time, but we ate too much. In the end, our birthday girl they came out with a cake and sing happy birthday, and we were really surprised that they gave her quite a few gifts.

The concept is simple: choose from an enormous selection of raw ingredients and cook them yourself either on the tabletop grill or in one of several flavorful broths. The selection was impressive. They had a huge variety of meats, seafood, vegetables, and mushrooms. One thing that immediately caught my attention was the hanger steak, one of my favorite cuts, and it was excellent on the grill. The pork belly was another standout, cooking up beautifully with great flavor. Seafood lovers will find plenty to enjoy as well, including scallops and even crab legs. As someone currently following a keto diet, there were plenty of carb-heavy options I skipped, but it didn't matter. The selection of proteins, vegetables, and mushrooms was so extensive that I had no trouble filling up while staying on plan. By the end of the meal, I felt completely satisfied and genuinely felt like I got my money's worth. Between the quality, variety, and interactive dining experience, Hot Pot Korean BBQ is a fun place to eat and one I'd happily visit again.

If you have a large group with some people having dietary restrictions, I think this spot helps bridge that divide. I also like how there's an option to add kbbq if you would like. The sauce bar also has a wide variety, where you can mix and match ingredients to make your perfect blend. If you don't know what sauce to make, their house sauce let's you cancel out the guess work of combinating ingredients and it's actually quite delicious, a perfect sauce for dipping any ingredient!

Right after a ceremony at USF, Hong on Fowler was the logical choice. Good reviewd. Convenience. There were supposed to be 9 of us in total, but 2 PAs who got out of a late hospital shift would need 30 more minutes. The policy of this establishment is not to sit until everyone arrives. The manager and the hostess went on and explained their 2-hour limit policy by which they time us exactly 2 hours fir our meal. I asked what if it would take us more than 2 hrs since we might chat a lot during this family gathering. They said a penalty up to $500 might be enforced. I looked around. The dining room was empty. There was only one more table besides us. Setting policies with restrictions when your dining room is empty is the silliest thing that you can do to harm your business. The staff never smiled. I walked around and saw chicken feet was served next to desserts and smelled the burning food from bad exhausting system. I advised the group to drive an hour to KPot in Terone, meeting the 2 PAs half way. We had a great dinner at KPot. Not sure if I would recommend Hong. Sorry.

We left another Korean VBQ on Fowler in Tampa and drove an hour to this location, frustrated at the rude attitude of that place over their 2=hrs limit policy and the $500 penalty (hix!). Our group had 9 of us. KPot's largest table could accommodate only 8. The hotess wanted us to sit at 2 tables, one 8 top and another 4 top. It was not convenience for a family gathering after a school ceremony. We asked Kevin if we could pull another chair and sit together. We did mind two of us sharing a hot pot.

They have a great variety of ingredients for both hot pot and barbecue, plus a hot bar, cold bar, and plenty of sauces to create your own combination. The drinks? Impeccable! I really enjoyed my experience here. The blue crabs and snow crab were definitely some of my favorites. 10/10 experience. I already know I'm coming back to stuff my face! KPOT has several locations, but this St. Petersburg location is definitely a must-try.
