My friend and I came here on a recommendation and we are so happy that we found this place. We came on a Monday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all so it was perfect for us to take our time and have a little afternoon sake as well. There is an all you can eat option, but we both decided to do a-la-cart and honestly it was enough food for each of us. The quality was so good and it went so well with the nigori bottle that we chose. I forgot which bottle we chose, but I believe they have two options and we can't go wrong with either. The girl that worked there was so sweet and was so fun to talk to you, especially since it was not too busy at the restaurant. She had the best playlist going and we just talked about music and it was great!! Can't wait to come back!! read more

Rolling Boil - Hot Pot Near Me - Anaheim, California

What started off as a great introduction went completely downhill. We were served by a female with facial piercings and tattoos (not that it matters however important to identify her). My friend and I ordered the 12 piece total 2-item combination. We both ordered 6 pcs of shrimp and 6 pcs of rib eye for the upgraded price. Our plate of protein only came out with 4 pcs of shrimp so we questioned the server why this was so. She tells us its actually weighed out to 4 ounces and not "pieces" which the menu clearly states. We asked her if this was a new rule because we had dined here literally the week prior. She proceeds to tell us "idk who served you but it's always been like this. I always tell our customers its weighed by ounces" (she did not inform us prior to ordering). We sat for a bit but felt we were being kind of cheated because of the discrepancy from last week's experience. We called her over again and literally told the server we were not trying to pick a fight and we just wanted to clarify due to the discrepancy from last week's meals. She stated "you probably got less rib eye and more shrimp, hence 6 pieces of shrimp." However this was not the case, because we know how to count and its 6 pieces of each item in the 12 PIECE COMBO. So, eventually we asked to speak to a manager. She left to get Kozen (?) her manager and when she came back with a male server(?) she told us "the managers too busy - but he'll allow it this one time but like I said its always been by ounces". From there on out, she proceeds to ignore us, starts coughing (pretty obnoxiously and grossly, might I add) and speaking loudly to those around us, cursing and being overall unprofessional. If you're going to say your food is served in ounces and not by pieces as your menu states, you best be telling ALL YOUR GUESTS before they order regardless if they're returning or new. We had lost our appetite, could not even finish our food and were just trying to rush out because the whole situation made us feel so uncomfortable. She made sure that we were ignored and put to the side and the male server who came down with her tried to mitigate by checking in on us, however we had already been put off by female server and her unprofessionalism. Due to this lack of professionalism and overall extremely uncomfortable and disappointing experience, we left 0% tip (which btw, is extremely rare for us). Overall, the food itself is still delicious as always, but we'll likely only patron when Roger and Cesar are working (because they at least, know how to count). read more

LEMONGRASS COCONUT BROTH (Thai flavor). This is the only place we know of that has this broth and it's why we keep coming back. Tucked away on the first floor of the Packing House, this spot has bar seating as well as table seating. It's cozy, so it might be challenging if you're trying to seat a large party. Our go-to's are the salmon and the New York cut (lean, not much fat) or the chuck (marbled with fat). This place has the shacha sauce, which is uncommon at shabu spots around here. Veggies are always fresh. The service here is friendly and attentive... weekday or weekend, lunch or dinner. They're all great! read more

This wonderful restaurant is on the lower level of the Packing House. It's a very intimate setting especially when the employees slice the meats to order each plate. They are very attentive and kind with their service and portion sizes. They are also very patient for first timers (me!). We met two employees both named Alex who really made our experience special and personalized. I enjoyed mixing the Spicy Schezuan and Thai Coconut broth for a great balance of heat and flavor. They even let you decide the ratio for each broth in mixtures! 4 plates of meat later, I felt satisfied and full. 5/5 would bring family and friends back! read more

Best hot pot I've ever had visiting from San Diego and found this place it was amazing really good service and music, there meat and seafood were very fresh and the sauces and broths were really flavorful will be coming back read more

We have eaten at most of the places in the Anaheim packing district. We decided to try Rolling Boil for the first time before an evening of cocktails at The Blind Rabbit next door. This hotpot place is located downstairs on the south side of the packing district. You can either sit at the main counter, or at one of the standalone tables on the right side. Ordering involves selecting a broth, proteins, and sauces and rice. They have a la carte and all you can eat protein options. They also serve beer, sake, and a few cocktails. I chose the spicy Szechuan broth, the eight piece New York steak protein, brown rice, and the toasted sesame sauce ($23). They can adjust the spice level and I went with mild since I didn't want to blow out my palette before cocktails after dinner. It was pretty mild, and I would definitely order at least medium spice level next time. They also have hot drops if you want to add that to your broth. I was afraid that only eight pieces of meat would leave me hungry, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that the cuts of meat were a good size. You also get a separate bowl of noodles and veggies to add to the pot. Without asking, they offered to serve us all three sauces to try. She chose the savory veggie broth, the eight piece chicken protein, brown rice, and the toasted sesame sauce ($20). She's picky about her chicken and did a little fat trimming before I could take a picture, lol. Our favorite sauce was the toasted sesame which had a nice nutty flavor. I also loved the citrus sauce. The sha cha sauce was good, but came in third. I enjoyed the protein in my bowl, but hers ended up being a little smaller serving after trimming some fat off the chicken pieces. The veggies and rice were good. The staff was friendly and checked on us often. Overall, it was a good meal at a reasonable price. read more

Not a great experience unfortunately... I got the Thai coconut soup base which turned out to be very citrusy. I could hardly taste the coconut flavor. The citrus flavor itself wasn't bad, but it's just not what I would expect from a Thai coconut flavor. A huge downside was that my soup arrived fridge-cold. And my station took FOREVER to heat up my soup, hardly took it to a boil. When it eventually started boiling more, it was over ten minutes. Later, it was still barely boiling, just hot. I've never had this happen to me at a hotpot place before. $35 for the basic AYCE (all you can eat). Not a lot of meat options for that one( 4 choices). The first plate I got with the chuck rolls and pork tenderloin looked really fresh. However, my second plate with beef belly and chuck rolls was unsatisfactory. The beef belly had a lot of fat on them, and the chuck rolls this time were super thin slices and they even have brown spots in them. Not very red and fresh like the first plate I got... It also came with a bowl of white or brown rice and a plate of veggies with noodles and tofu that is refillable. Was surprised to see a hot pot place at the Anaheim packing house. Tiny space, seat felt a bit crammed though. The staff member was friendly. I would not go back, don't recommend. read more

Rolling Boil - Hot Pot Near Me - Anaheim, California

TLDR: There is always something charming about dining at a bar table. There is also something charming about hotpot. This place provides both. The ala carte options are good, and the AYCE is a nice addition for parties with various appetites. The price is $5-10 more than the chain hotpot spots, but I'd pay the extra for supporting a local business. AYCE Premium: I chose the miso based soup just because it was familiar. You get rice, a plate of napa cabbage, noodles, mushroom, and broccoli to start and you have 7-8 choices of meat. The sesame sauce seems to be the restaurant's top choice, but I thought the meal would have been fine without it. The turnaround time of how often the staff would take your fresh set of orders is heavily dependent on how many people are eating at the bar, but they'll keep you in mind via mental queue if you let them know that you're ready to order again. Best cuts for me are the Ribeye and New York, which is important since those are the additional slices you get access to if you opt in for the premium. Beef belly was good, just to change things up a few rounds in. Service: It was alright. It's not the best, but it's far from being the worst. They found this fine balance of being able to take in a Friday rush with as little staff needed while providing what folks need without waiting too long. Ambiance: Anaheim packing house is already a good place to be. Pair that with a hotpot place that serves good food and it's a pairing that is hard to beat. The Friday night DJ also played a set that I enjoyed, which helped with the vibe. The conversation with my group was a touch challenging given that we were sitting side by side, but I don't mind. read more

You have to remember to rub the cat for good luck! Haha I took a selfie as proof that I rubbed the cat for good fortune. Hopefully it works for 2025! Lol The food is good. It's your typical hot pot place. You pick everything that you want in your hot pot, and it cooks right in front of you. It's really good and filling! Service was fine, no complaints there. It was very clean too. And luckily, no wait time or anything when I arrived. I was seated right away. I enjoyed a good meal. read more

Hot Pot at Rolling Boil is good and piping hot! It's a different vibe and not the usual hot pot experience in a Chengdu or Szechuan style restaurant. The veggies were fresh. However the chicken and salmon were teeny tiny. Being in a place in buzzing Anaheim Packing District Food Hall, Rolling Boil is a good alternative to beat the crowd. read more

We had lunch at the Rolling Boil at the Anaheim Packing house. Donna who helped and served us provided exceptional service. She let us taste different types of broth and sauces to make sure we picked the one we liked best. She also was very patient in walking us through the cooking and preparation process. We ended up ordering the Thai Coconut broth, with 8 New York strips, and toasted sesame sauce with white rice. The meal also included a variety of vegetables and noodles. Overall, we really enjoyed the taste of the broth and all the added ingredients. A very good meal. read more

If you end up in the packing house not knowing what to get, bonus points if you're with family or friends, FOR SURE go to the Rolling Boil. The food is great, many options, and the protein deals are nice. The spicy broth at 5/10 was perfect for me and the miso was great too. The music taste was chef's kiss featuring Arctic Monkeys, Paramore, and Muse. Our server, Alex, gave us incredible service and she was so kind. She gave us free dishes and a family discount unprompted. Genuinely such a a sweet person. I definitely recommend this place. read more

My veggies were fresh and crisp and the shrimp was plump and juicy. The service was AHH-MAAHH-ZING thanks to Alex. It was our first Hot Pot experience! Alex patiently walked us through everything. She made us feel like she had all the time in the world to help us understand our journey. The ambiance was very nice not too quiet but not so loud that you couldn't hold a conversation. I definitely want to return and try the Spicy Szechaun/Miso broth with double veggies. Oh and that citrus dipping sauce= I would've taken a picture but it was so good I didn't want to stop to take one lol. read more

This used to be my favorite place to get Hot Pot. When the original guy/owner was there, everything was delicious. The past few times we've been, our experience hasn't been great. I've eaten here at least 20 times before. The service isn't great anymore. I ordered pork tenderloin and they brought out some kind of beef. I could hardly get our waitress's attention to change it. Water has weird aftertaste. There was also a leak in the pipe above which kept dripping into my food. I'm really sad cause I still want this to be my favorite hot pot place. Please bring back the original owner to return this place to what it used to be. read more

Our server Alex gave us the best service I have ever had! She is super knowledgeable of the menu and overall friendly and looks like she truly loves her job! Which made our experience even better!

Located in the Anaheim Packing District, on the lower level. My hun & I could not decide where to eat, there are so many delicious restaurants in one spot. But once we passed Rolling Boil & smelled the food & heard the ouuuing & ahhhing of the diners, we knew we had to dine there. Customer service was excellent & attentive. The workers were so happy & worked great as a team, it was refreshing to see. 16 piece New York Steak: We ordered 16 pieces each because we were starving & that was a lot. We had to tap out early which was so sad because the meat was super tasty & tender! It comes with vegetables & at the end you have a choice of noodles to make soup. Yum! 16 piece Choice Ribeye: Thinly sliced & melts in your mouth. read more

I'd never had Hot Pot before and if i had to start somewhere i was glad it was here! Located downstairs in The Anaheim Packing District this small restaurant locations offer excellent music, friendly staff, and good vibes! We sat at the bar top and the staff helped with all our questions (how and when to cook, what to do, best options etc)! The broth was incredibly flavorful - trust that the spicy broth is very spicy when they tell you. I was super glad for the veggie assortment which i wasnt expecting as well as the tofu and noodles/rice! The menu is easy to read, and mixing sauces or broths is pretty tasty as well. I'll for sure be back! read more

The food is always great every time we come . We always get, all you can eat because that is all that we know. Fun thing is we never caught that you can also get a scoop of ice cream when you are done. The people are very nice and attentive as long as they are not busy and having people waiting but I have always had great experiences with the staff sometimes I am shy to talk but they are patient and attentive and always ask if we need anything else. The area is placed at the bottom floor of the packing house so it is a little tought to find parking spots so it's busy lots of foot traffic. There is also plenty of noise there, if you are looking for a sweet cute quiet date night I would not recommend this place. Definitely something more I closed but I love the packing district. read more

This hot pot restaurant is in Anaheim packing house. The seatings are spacious and cozy. Menu was extensive enough and prices were fair. We started off with a medium Kikusui, the sake prices were really good. I chose two items chicken and shrimps with Thai coconut broth, hubby had ribeye with special broth. The broth was actually pretty good and flavorful. The proteins were fresh enough. Our shabu experience here was pleasant and the service was great! We will come back when it gets cooler, the AC was horrible in Anaheim packing house! read more

I came here with a friend when our original shabu spot was closed, but so lucky that we did! First of all, the server was super friendly and talkative (although sometimes it took awhile to get his attention because he was busy chatting with all the customers). But once we asked for something, it came right away. We weren't too sure how much meat comes in the combos and we were feeling hungry, so we opted for the AYCE without seafood for $35. It's a bit pricier than other AYCE shabu spots, but I have to say that their broth is amazing. I got a mix of broth (highly recommend doing this), which consisted of the spicy szechuan and special of the day: miso. It had the perfect balance of spicy and savory. The broth was also quite thick, which gave it so much flavor and not watered down at all. For the meats, we got the beef ribeye and beef belly. I'm all about the beef, so this was perfect. As we went through our rounds of meats, the quality did go down a bit and our plates got smaller. Overall, still very delicious. I also really enjoyed the ramen noodles, but I do wish there were more vegetable variety. Of course to end it all, you get a scoop of ice cream to wrap it all up. This shabu spot is very good, but definitely a bit pricey. If you do, come hungry! read more

Rolling Boil was the most unpleasant shabu experience I have ever had. Or maybe I should say lack of since we were ignored. We drove all the way from HB to check this place out. We have been wanting to try Rolling Boil for awhile and I have had it bookmarked for years. We came in and were ignored. They didn't ask if we wanted to sit or anything. We literally had their menus in hand. So finally we stood right in front of the bar and the guy behind the counter finally asked if we wanted to sit. No shit. So we sat. He kept talking to the people next to us and just straight up ignored us. So after sitting for a long time we just decided to leave. I rarely write negative reviews and if you do not believe me then check my stats. Looking at the menu, prices, and based off of what we experienced I can guarantee you I will never be back. I can also guarantee you I would never recommend this place and I would not be surprised if Rolling Boil ever goes under. There are 928374324 other shabu places now in OC. There's just so many better spots that this place is really not worth it. read more

Can you describe something soo flavorful bubbling and hot that just blows your mind away? Well if you can then you must be thinking about Rolling Boil as that's basically what you get a hot pot of boiling broth veggies and meat to have the most fun you possibly can while paying to cook some of your own dinner! Of the options I went with the spicy one and with some steak which was totally perfect as I had a good sized bowl of boiling goodness to throw some meat into making for one killer pot of goodness! The veggies the broth the meat the sauce everything was perfect and soo good like I'm going to be craving this until I can get back here! Our service was outstanding too they were totally on top of everything we needed and very nice even more so when they kept giving us sake shots which just added that much more fun to an already awesome night! Overall this is just another reason to come to Packing House as it's another insanely good restaurant doing it right and turning out some incredible boiling goodness! So do yourself a favor and just come here you'll be stoked you did! read more

The owner is really nice and friendly. He made sure to check in with all of his customers and built rapport with his easy-going personality. As for the food, it was delicious! Perfect for a cold day in December. We had two bowls for a group of 3 people for AYCE. One bowl had the Thai Coconut and the other had a combination of Spicy Szechuan and Savory Veggie as the broth. Personally, the combo broth was our favorite to add the veggies and meats in. We ordered all of the sauces to try and the Citrus sauce was the best for the meat. Wonderful service and great food = 5 stars read more
