    Popcorn chicken and winter melon lemonade
    Le T.

    I was craving hot pot and noticed Pop Pot & Tea was close. I ordered the popcorn chicken, winter melon lemonade and the Thai Flavor hot pot. The overall taste was good but could use a little bit more flavor. The popcorn chicken was really flavorful and crispy. I was not a fan of the winter melon lemonade it was a little too bitter for my taste. The restaurant was nice and clean. Be careful when asking for soup because the server has to take your whole pot to add more soup.

    Satay Beef Pot

    I came here once when they first open and was underwhelmed. But I recently came here again and had a better experience. I think the food and flavor has definitely improved. I got the Satay Beef Pot and my husband got the Korean Troops Pot. We both liked ours. And we also got the Mixed Fruit Tea and the Winter Melon Tea, which were good. I can't help but compare it to Tasty Pot though. Tasty Pot typically includes noodles in the pot, plus you get an additional vermicelli noodles or rice for free. My Satay Beef Pot at Pop Pot didn't have noodles already included, however my husband's soup has some ramen noodles included. It may just depend on which soup you get. At Tasty Pot, you're able to control the flame under your pot yourself. But at Pop Pot, you need to ask one of the servers to put out the flame. It's not a terrible inconvenience, but you do need to wait until you catch one of the server's attention. Overall my opinion of this place has improved, but I think I still prefer Tasty Pot.

    Normally what I order in Los Angeles for 12 bucks

    I paid $28 dollars for 2 sausage links and some rice they are overpriced. I normally pay 12 bucks in Los Angeles and get way more food.

    My first time here with family. We ordered 4 pots for 5 people. Came with rice or vermicelli noodles. We ordered #1,3,5,10. I liked the Taiwan Spicy Pot the best. It's a little spicy but very good. It's the first time that I had the fried preserved egg, and it's actually not bad, if you are used to having preserved eggs.

    Taiwanese spicy pot
    Stephanie O.

    It is hot pot season in Phoenix right now so come visit this place and get some delicious broth! The place has lots of tables even for large parties. These are individual hot pot but there is a lot of food, enough to share if one wanted. The service was fast and efficient. The spicy taiwanese hot pot was very tasty with all the veggies, fish cakes, meat and noodles. The fried combo was also good and my favorite were the brown rice cakes: crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside!

    Classic Milk Tea and Tieguanyin Oolong Milk Tea
    Daniel H.

    I've been a here a few times from their soft opening to a few months after their grand opening and about a year later. The parking lot was small but also shared with Lee Lee's Supermarket on the side. It was busy the first time here and on my latest visit, it wasn't busy on Friday at 6:15pm. It was bright inside so that was good. Their menu had a lot of pictures of the hot pot which was nice and they had the ingredients in each. There was also an appetizer section as well as the drink section. On the first visit, we had the Sukiyaki Pot, the Thai Style Hot Pot, Popcorn Chicken, Classic Milk Tea, and Tieguanyin Oolong Milk Tea. The Sukiyaki Pot was not bad and their broth was a little bit light in flavor to me. The Thai Style Hot Pot was also the same. The amount of food seemed a lot less than my most recent visit. The Popcorn Chicken was good and both the Classic Milk Tea and Tieguanyin Oolong Milk Tea were not bad to me. On the second trip, we ordered Korean Troops Pot, Satay Beef Pot and the Fried King Oyster Mushrooms. The Korean Troops Pot was good and the Satay Beef Pot was tasty. The Fried King Oyster Mushrooms were delicious and had the same batter as the Popcorn Chicken. On my last visit, we had the Taiwanese Spicy Pot, the Popcorn Chicken Pot, and also the Fried King Oyster Mushrooms again. The Popcorn Chicken Pot was literally popcorn chicken and the hot pot but it was nice to have two in most one. It tasted good to me and the portion seemed like it was a little more than the last few times we came here. This place was not bad and I'll come to try other things on the menu.

    Giant chicken steak

    Hot pot is my comfort food, so I was surprised to find authentic Taiwanese hot pots in Chandler ! I got the house special pot and my family ordered satay beef pots, we all loved it! We also ordered the popcorn chicken, tempura fish cake, and giant chicken steak, all tasted just like the night market street food in Taiwan! The service was friendly! We don't live nearby, but we'll definitely come back whenever we're in the area!

    Beef satay pot
    Anthony H.

    Food 3/5 I had the Taiwanese spicy pot it was ok it had good flavor but still felt like it was missing a lot of something and didn't had much of a choice in sauces to make up for the missing flavor as well My wife had the beef satay pot and hers was mehhhhhhh af we also had the takoyaki was the best thing we tasted there sadly but delicious!!!! but we stilled enjoyed our meal Service: 5/5 the men who catered to us were really nice and it didn't take long for our food to show up so that was nice Ambiance: 5/5 nice little cozy spot to bring a group so all in all good experience but maybe switch up the flavors a bit

    my boyfriend and I have been thinking of hot pot for a while.. and this place was a doable fix near us. Broth pretty mid to me. Wish they had more variety of sauces to taste on though! 3 stars for the great service we had. Cuuuute and kawaii ambiance that I failed to get photos of :)))))

    Cilantro & preserved egg hot pot, $18.99
    Joyce W.

    What is hot pot? From Mongolia to China, from Japan to Korea, hot pot has now become a common style of eating throughout Asia and elsewhere - various regions and countries using different ingredients and broths, and having developed their own distinct hotpot styles. Think fondue but with soup instead of cheese! I finally popped back in for some hot pot. I came with a party of five and got myself a winter melon tea with fresh milk and a cilantro & preserved egg hot pot. The table shared some fried stinky tofu and some fried century eggs. No complaints here. I really enjoyed my cilantro & preserved egg hot pot and that dipping sauce they offer at the table was so tasty. I could use that sauce on everything! As for the appetizers of fried stinky tofu and fried century eggs, while good, they're not necessary. Neither item was strong and robust in flavor despite being stinky tofu and century eggs! So yeah! Solid hot pot spot!

    Linda W.

    What stands out from other hotpot places were the Taiwanese food items on the menu. As the valley weather gets sizzling hot, it is definitely a great option to have other food items. Stinky Tofu: Don't worry if you're afraid of the smell. It is not stinky at all, but overly fried. It needs moisture in the tofu to taste good. Hopefully, there is room for improvement there. The best part was the pickled cabbage. Fried Chicken Steak Rice: Marinated perfectly and crispy. The minced rice comes with the meal. We also ordered on the side. Absolutely delicious! Pepper Pork Tripe Chicken Pot: Bland broth, but not bad. Sesame Oil Chicken Pot: We clearly told the waitress wanted a mild broth, but somehow got a suicide based broth. We told the waitress but got a response from her it was Taiwanese hot. As the customer, we would know the difference between mild and extremely spicy. Rice Truffle Milk Tea Creama: Ordered with no sugar but got a 70% sweet. Lost in translation even confirmed the order. The drink was okay. TVs Excellent for groups Service definitely can improve!

    Minced pork
    Lei G.

    The 1. 滷肉飯 / Minced Pork Rice portion size was smaller than expected. The taste was ok and it didn't have many fatty pieces to elevate the taste.

    Thai pot
    Nikki M.

    Tried Pop Pot for the first time because we love hot pot. The concept is very similar to our favorite Tasty pot where you have individual pots. However, this place does not come close and we were highly disappointed. I'm quite surprise by the good reviews on Yelp. The 2 stars are for the nice decor and cleanliness. Service could definitely improve. Although they were nice, I had to get up to ask for things multiple times. We ordered the popcorn chicken, Thai Pot with medium spice, and Beef pot extra spicy. They must have mixed up the spice levels because Thai pot was super spicy and Beef pot had no spice at all. Taste for both pots were pretty bland. The pots did not look anything like the menu picture. It was full of cabbage and broth with one of each topping. Definitely not enough to share. Thai pot and beef both cost the same but beef was smaller. It was definitely not fulfilling for such a high price ($20). Popcorn chicken ($9) was decent size but taste was just OK. Overall, I would not recommend and will stick to our tried and true.

    Authenticity -- 10/10 This place is actually real Taiwanese…read morefood. Not "inspired by," not Americanized, not playing games. This is the closest thing you're getting to Taiwan in Arizona right now. Service -- 10/10 You order at the counter, which threw us off for about two seconds, then we realized it just works. The owner is a super nice Taiwanese guy and the whole place feels chill and genuine. Deliciousness -- 10/10 We ordered a bunch of snacks and I'm telling you right now, the deep-fried stuff is non-negotiable. The popcorn chicken is life-altering. I don't even want to exaggerate but it actually changed my standards. The drinks are also dangerous. Smoothies and slushes both hit way harder than expected. Overall Score: 10/10 I would come back. I would bring friends. I would think about this food at 1 a.m. Definitely Unofficial Food Critic approved.

    This has been on my list for a long time to try and finally came in tonight for dinner…read more The place is very casual and frankly kind of dumpy but those are the best places for good authentic food! My family is from Taiwan and so I was looking forward to coming here and giving it a try. Now granted, I am picky when it comes to Taiwanese food, so if not made right, you will know about it. We ordered the ground pork over rice and Taiwanese braised pork over rice combos. Both dishes were pretty good. I dont have high expectations here in Phoenix and I was pleasantly surprised! We also checked out their cold case and lots of comforting dishes like Taiwanese pickled cabbage, marinated pig ears, marinated seaweed and tofu gan. We got an order of the seaweed and tofu gan and it was good. Also had a boba tea to go and it was as expected. Boba was chewy like it should be and for $3.35, pretty good deal. Overall, the food was good and there is a specials daily menu by the cash register but its written in Chinese, so you probably need to ask the owner what specials they are having or bring me with you! When we came tonight there was eel over rice, 3 cups chicken over rice combo and papaya milk and green bean sweet soup. I'd definitely come back here again when Im in the mood for Taiwanese food but I would skip dining in. I felt like I was in some school cafeteria, zero ambiance. But the food was legit!

The Boas were good, but the dough was a little thicker than I'm used to. So I felt full rather quickly! The fried rice however, 10/10 NO NOTES!!! Best fried rice I think I've ever had!! Totally worth the drive. Will be back for sure!!
