Love this place! The cute décor and panda pillows on the chairs make the dining experience fun and cozy. The soup broth is delicious and full of flavor. The staff is attentive and provides great service. We also loved the dessert bar with its variety of sweet treats. The only downside is that the food portions are a bit small for the price. Other than that, it's a great spot for hot pot, and we'd definitely come back. read more

I was interested in coming to this hot pot place for the panda theme! I found it interesting! As someone who really likes meat and protein, they do have some variety of meats and seafood. However I felt like their carbs section was a bit more limiting. I do like the service though! read more

Nanshan Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Flushing, New York

So I was looking for all things themed panda and saw this as a wonderful place to go before Citi Field for a Mets game. It is in Downtown Flushing which apparently has become New York's better Chinatown for food. This is one of two American outposts of the Nanshan Hot Pot chain from China with the other in Bayside, Queens. We walked in and were greeted by very friendly staff and adorable pandas. I am glad we made a reservation since it was quite busy for an early dinner at 4:30 on a Saturday. Our waitress was amazing and ensured the broth had no pork or shellfish due to my wife's allergies and my kosher customs (although I eat meat out and now some shellfish but not shrimp). We got the spicy fish broth as our main hot pot and the fruit as the smaller side one. The spicy was a bit much for us but we still finished most of it. We had various meat including brisket and loved every bite and sip. To drink they had some bartenura in a can such as peach and lychee on menu (but substitute rossato) that I have not seen in Maryland so that was wonderful too and shows cultural appreciation towards us Jewish people. I really hope they expand to Chinatown in DC that is struggling and this would be so successful. read more

The service was nice even though you order through and iPad. She refilled our broth, waters and checked in on us, and then packed up our leftovers to go. The place is cute but imo overpriced and I didn't find the variety of ingredients or the ingredients themselves to be that great compared to other hotpot places. A few of my usual favorite hotpot ingredients were nowhere to be found. I was not a fan of their broths either. I think this place focuses on its aesthetic more than the food. Not bad. But I probably won't return with so many other places to choose from. read more

Nanshan Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Flushing, New York

Flushing has a plethora of hotpot establishments erecting, so quality of food and service is really what sets them apart from each other. This spot is hard to miss because they normally have a dancing giant panda right in front. Bear in mind (pun intended?), this isn't an AYCE spot, so ordering a la carte can add up quickly. Most of the ordering can be done via tablet; it's very user-friendly and rather straightforward. You have the option of choosing up to 3 broths. We initially wanted to opt for 2 broths, but the size of the pot didn't really make sense; there was a small and large side to the 2 broth pot and we didn't have a preference to the broth yet. We opted for 3 broths (pork broth, tomato, sour soup) because of the even portion size. The broths were all very fragrant. Pork bone broth was my favorite, with the perfect amount of herbs. Tomato broth had a potent tomato flavor, so I would not recommend if you're not a fan of tomatoes. Sour soup is actually spicy, which we were very surprised about, but this wasn't too bad. One gripe I had was that they took forever to bring out the broth for some reason. We ordered a wide range of protein -- angus beef, beef slices, beef tongue, lamb slices, and fish; most of it ranged from $8.99 - $16.99 per order. I honestly could not tell you the difference between the variety of beef, but the beef tongue was definitely a crowd favorite. We also ordered the usual hotpot items such as fish roe balls, dried bean curds, quail eggs, wood-ear mushroom, fish tofu, enoki, AA Choy, vermicelli and handmade noodle; all which were very standard. Loved the wide vermicelli noodles, but you could hold off on the handmade noodles. These items were reasonably priced, at about $2.99-$6.99 per item, but they also charge for usage of sauce bar. While I do think the quality of most items were solid, I don't find myself visiting here often. You could probably get better quality items at a similar price range in the area. The restaurant itself is cute though, especially if you love giant pandas. -- BUT ALSO, why aren't there personal metal/heat friendly spoons to use??? Why are we hotpotting with plastic spoons? read more

Okay Haidilao was booked, so came here and I knew it was going to be underwhelming, but I said, I will give this place a chance. I don't care about the pandas, like it doesn't make the place cute or anything, it just makes me think these stuff pandas are collecting mad dust from hanging all around this restaurant. No one is cleaning that mess - these poor stuffies just smelling like hot pot and collecting dust. The floors here are crazy slippery - I am sure someone have already slipped and slide here. The menu was super limited and a lot of things were combo and you couldn't order them individually. Got the whatever Beef Broth that you can pick the level of spice and I picked mild, since not trying to do spicy anymore, and I am sorry, but it was spicy, not even medium okay. The sauce bar was a joke - the garlic, and chili appears to be store bought that's already minced and cut not freshly done at the restaurant. The offerings at the bar was also very limited and not good. The dessert bar - too many things that were overly sweet. We didn't even get any serving utensils, when we finally asked, we only got a ladle not even the slotted spoons. But the waitress had two spoons and she gave us the ladle and the slotted one to the other table but we actually wanted the slotted and that other party wanted the ladle. But I heard her tell the other party they ran out - like this place is not even that big and they ran out of serving utensils? WHAT? Yeah, not coming back here, since one, not trying to bust my ass on their wonky ass floor and two, the food is just too limited for me. I did appreciate the basket they offered to put in your belongings and that was it! read more

Got nanshan takeout so three different kind of mala tang. Everything tasted okay but favorite was definitely the tomato broth one. Everything tasted like it was built upon the plain bone broth which was definitely the worse. The portions are pretty big and overall the order was prepared pretty quickly. The restaurant was pretty busy so might come back to try their hotpot read more

Yummy hot pot! Nanshan is not AYCE, and it's a bit pricey but the meat quality is very good. The plum pork and the lamb were both very good. I also liked the crispy pork trotters as an appetizer. I liked that you can have up to 3 different soup bases - the tomato was my favorite! The staff are very friendly, and the service is fast. It's casual and cute inside, with lots of panda-themed decorations. read more

Nanshan Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Flushing, New York

You'd think that it would be hard to stand out as a hotpot place in Flushing, but surprise! I was so happy after eating here and I've already come twice in the last few weeks haha. Both times I came rather early, around 5:30 or so, and we managed to get seated immediately; but they definitely get really busy during peak meal times, so come early, make a res (I think this wasn't previously an option), or be prepared to queue. We opted for the classic three-flavour broth both times, which has a spicy mala broth, pork bone broth, and a fruity (!) broth. The fruity broth is actually kind of similar to the pork broth IMO but just a tad sweeter. Also, they were (are?) doing a promotion where the spicy broth can come with the spicy roe butter, so we did opt for that the first time, but to be entirely honest, we couldn't really taste the difference lol. And, the regular spicy one comes with the cute panda bear :) Some highlights - - For meats we tried a few but my favourite was the American beef (美國肥牛) despite being one of the cheaper options - really tender and flavourful. I also quite liked the basa fish which had a surprisingly large portion size. - We got an order of the fish roe balls (魚仔丸) which were really delicious. - Veggies were very fresh and yummy across the board. - Sweet potato noodles were great! - Matcha shaved ice was definitely the low point of the meals :( I really hate popping boba, so maybe this is just on me lol but buyer be warned! Overall it did just taste overly/sickly sweet, but at least it wasn't too pricey. For drinks I think you can actually order from the bubble tea shop next door (seems that they may be sharing a kitchen or something), and instead of desserts I'd recommend having some of their yummy orange slices at the sauce bar instead of their shaved ices lol. And get the membership! I think you have to basically buy/load a gift card, but there's no cost for the membership itself, and I will be coming here pretty often (and soon!) so it was a no-brainer for me haha. read more

Nanshan Hot Pot is so adorable and is a panda themed hot pot spot. The inside of the restaurant is bright, clean, and very inviting. Service here is kind and fairly quick. We got a variety of meats, veggies, and seafood for our hot pot and everything was delicious. The prices are good, but portions are also smaller to reflect that. The broth here is also pretty decent and I love the panda decor that they have on their hot pot. Their sauce bar has sesame oil and sesame paste made in house, which is super neat! Overall, not a bad hot pot spot! read more

Absolutely adorable and tasty new hot pot spot in Flushing. In a city where there are hot pot places on every block, it's sometimes hard to stand out, but Nanshan makes its mark with all the panda-themed features and outfits throughout! From staff dressed in panda ears to a huge fluffy panda mascot that wanders the street outside, everything is so adorable. When you come in, you're given a bib and hair tie (if you have long hair) and given an iPad to order from. Their spicy broth comes with a cute panda shaped seasoning block and their "house special fruit soup" is a great soup base if you need a break from the spice. All ingredients are very fresh and tasty, and quite reasonably priced. You do have to pay extra for sauces as is now seeming to be the norm. read more

Always wanted to stop by since it's so cute inside and heard good things. Finally gave it a try and overall, it was good but wouldn't go again. The hot pot soup options were flavorful and had depth, but the hot pot selections on the menu are limited compared to many others, and the portions were smaller than expected considering the price. read more

Be careful - the spicy is actually really spicy (great for spicy lovers)! It is a la carte and everything is panda themed. I recommend joining their membership for discounts and you get more value based on how much money you load up. The quality of the food is higher than most AYCE spots. Some highlights include the shrimp paste and mushroom combo. You can also order from the boba shop next door TeaPulse from the same iPad - there was even a guy walking around giving samples. I recommend the jumbo ceylon tea, which comes in a mini bucket. read more

Amazing place filled with panda theme! Definitely recommend their coconut soup base, very worth while! They also gave big Chinese envelopes as gifts for Chinese new years, the atmosphere is very welcoming! Been wanting to try since it opened, very pleasant! Side note: their seaweed kelp is very good the leafy kind! Service was great attentive to everyone even when it was rush hour! read more

Nanshan Hot Pot - Gift - Hot Pot Near Me - Flushing, New York

This place just recently opened, and on a Sunday it was about an hour or so wait for a table of two. They have a member's price where everything is a little bit off (~$1-3) depending on the dish, but it didn't seem to be available yet. Food was fine overall, I liked the tomato broth and the classic Szechuan one. It wasn't particularly amazing or special compared to other hotpot in the area, except for the cute panda decorations. Ambiance is classic hotpot restaurant, busy and noisy, good place to chat and eat. Service is a bit hit or miss, but they just opened so things will probably get better as time goes on. The items on the menu don't also appear as shown. For example we ordered the angus beef karubi, and it looked nothing like the menu picture (same price $19.99 version etc), being fewer slices. read more

The meats and seafood were high quality and fresh. We loved the sauce station, where we got to make our own unique sauces.

We went to Nanshan Hot Pot because I'm a big fan of pandas, and the panda theme is cute and fun. Unfortunately, the overall experience didn't meet expectations. This is not an all-you-can-eat hot pot. We got the three soup base pot, which was good, and the ingredients were fine, nothing exceptional, but solid for a hot pot. We were seated in the basement, and I would strongly recommend asking for upstairs seating. We barely saw any servers during the meal. Since everything is ordered through an iPad, they only came by to drop off food. The dessert was good. There were also a few concerning issues. I kept feeling water droplets at our table, which we realized were coming from condensation off the A/C unit above us. That was bad enough, but what bothered me was that the droplets could've fallen into our soup without us even knowing. On top of that, a spider dropped into one of my friend's plates, and with no staff nearby, we couldn't even notify anyone. In the end, while the theme is cute and the ice cream was great, the poor service, basement seating, and questionable cleanliness made the experience feel off. I don't think I'd come back unless there were clear improvements. read more

Cute interior, good selection of meats and veggies for hotpot! This place has 2 floors for seating and nice waitstaff. There are also side dishes and fruit at the sauce station for free. The only qualm I have it the hot is a little too small, you can pick up to 3 flavors of soup but if you go with more than 2 people then it gets a little crowded to be cooking so much in such a small-ish pot. read more

Nanshan Hotpot in Flushing is a popular family-friendly restaurant known for its panda theme, creative hotpot dishes. I like the panda-themed atmosphere and attentive friendly service. One complaint I have is that I wish this was AYCE hotpot but it's not. I went during 5pm and was glad I didn't need to wait in line and got seated immediately. The hotpot comes on 3 broths( pumpkin tomato,herbal,and chil). There's this orange cute bear looking sculpture which is use to make the broth spicier. The selection of foods here are limited and price is reasonable. Will I come here again? I probably wouldn't. read more

What stands out here is their service. They immediately start you off with hot disposable towels and a bin to put your clothes in. They come around frequently to refill your water, your hotpot soup, and help with cooking dishes like shrimp paste. The food was ok- we mainly got a lot of seafood and vegetables. All the ingredients were fresh and presentation was nice. There's a sauce bar charge. Total for dinner for two was ~$100 after tip and taxes. Good hotpot spot close to center activity area of flushing. Which is perfect for cold days when you don't want to walk too far :) read more

Pandas. Pandas everywhere. I feel like if that wasn't Nanshan's biggest selling point, nobody would give this place a second glance. Because of all the hotpot restaurants in Flushing, at least food quality and price wise, this place is your average hotpot, nothing special. Most dishes were overpriced for the portion size and I wish you could customize the soup bases how you wanted. Service wise - majority of the stars given are for the staff that were super attentive and helpful when it came to ordering and placing all the dishes at our table. The whole time we were waiting for our table, the waitress kept checking in on us, updating us and giving us mints and panda hair pins. Overall, nothing to write home about and I would unlikely be returning. Food: 3.5/5 Service: 5/5 Likeliness to return: 2/5 read more

I went on a Saturday night, expecting the waitlist to be long. We waited in the store and the lady in charge of the waitlist wearing a panda hat and outfit did not bother to check the waitlist. I was next in line and confirmed this multiple times using the waitlist in the store but unexpectedly, the waitlist lady allowed another group of 3 to go first even though my group of 3 was first in line and we were there waiting to be called. I'm assuming this was because the other group of 3 constantly asked how much longer do they have to wait. The waitlist lady never confirmed if the first group on the waiting list was there, we were supposed to get a text but we never did until after we noticed that another group went in. When the waitlist lady came back, I confronted her and she claimed that I saw wrong and that the other group was in front of my group. How does one mistaken their name and phone number? I told her I saw the waitlist and the group behind us on the waitlist was gone and all she told me was she was sorry and for us to wait. Wait? How much longer when we already waited about 1hr and 30 mins? As you couldn't tell, I was pissed. It felt like the iPad she was using to view the waitlist was just a prop and there was no purpose behind the waitlist as she could just invite anyone who was "on the line" to go in. After getting seated, food was just ok. The food was served very quickly. But none of the ingredients stood out, it was very mediocre. We chose the Beef Tallow broth with medium spice (it was pretty spicy for someone who can handle spice) and Mushroom broth with no spice. If you love spice, definitely try the Beef Tallow broth. My favorite topping would be the vermicelli dipped in the beef tallow broth, everything else was just average. Sauce bar was also decent, it had everything you typically see in any hotpot store and they do charge for the sauce bar. The dessert bar was one of my favorite, they had many different toppings and you could mix and match. Ice cream didn't taste like ice cream, it tasted like yogurt slushy in a cone. Overall food experience 3/5 Overall food service 4/5 Overall waiting service 1/5 Overall 2.5/5 Since the staff made a mistake about our waitlist, I got a discount but will not be coming back. Overall felt like the time spent waiting was not worth the food and the price. Not worth the hype or the money, save your wallet and try a different place. read more
