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

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

COCONUT LEMONGRASS BROTH. We eat at shabu places quite frequently, but none have this broth. It is creamy, savory with a hint of sweetness from the coconut, and a slight tang from the lemongrass. Hits the spot! This is the reason we've been here twice in two weeks! The meat selections are decent and I love that they have not just goma and ponzu sauces, but also the sate/sacha sauce. Ask them for the special sauce as well! The veggie selection that comes with the meal is decent. I wish the plates were more consistent; both times my plate seemed skimp compared to my husband's and other folks. The service is excellent. The guys are so friendly and happy, always a good time. They offer both à la carte and AYCE. 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

Also he was the only waiter running the entire packed restaurant, which was super impressive to watch how fast he tended to his customers. Definitely recommend!! And ambiance was great! 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

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

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

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

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

Service is fantastic. Prices are fair. The meat is great quality and cut in large slices. I was pleasantly filled with a 8pc rib eye meal. The thai lemongrass broth had a bit too much lime in it and was sour. If I were to go back, I'd try the spicy schezuan. 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!

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

Rolling Boil - beef belly and pork tenderloin - Hot Pot Near Me - Anaheim, California

Rolling Boil is located in the Anaheim Packing District on the 1st floor. We came around 8pm on a Saturday, and there was no wait. We got seated quickly at the bar. I ordered the 8 pieces of salmon with the Thai coconut broth. It comes with a plate of veggies, a portion of noodles, and a bowl of rice. Price was ~$23. The Thai coconut broth was interesting; probably not my favorite broth. It was a little too sour for my taste. The dipping sauces were quite yummy, especially the toasted sesame sauce. The salmon was delicious of course! It was super tender especially if cooked properly. I overall enjoyed my salmon. It's a little pricey for just 8 prices of salmon, but it does come with veggies and carbs. In general, hot pot/shabu are on the expensive side, so price is as expected. Ambience was super casual. read more

A small hot pot/shabu spot located inside the Anaheim Meat Packing District food hall. They have mostly bar seating with a few tables for up to 2-4 people. The service was excellent!! They went above and beyond to check in on us frequently. The food was delicious. All the meat was fresh and good quality. I went with the AYCE-had the beef belly, chuck roll, and pork tenderloin. I opted for the spicy miso soup base and it was very flavorful with a strong kick. They had a small selection of draft beers-IPA, Japanese lager, and 2 others. It's the perfect balance of healthy and tasty. read more

This hot pot place is pretty consistent since the beginning of the Packing District! They are one of the few restaurants that were the original when they first built this place. Their meat quality is good and soup flavor is great. The place is very dim and it's a bit hard to see your food if you're sitting toward the inside. AYCE is either $35 (all meat) or $40 (including seafood). I love their mix combo broth and my favorite combo is the spicy Szechuan and Thai coconut. One of my favorite cuts from them is the beef belly! Yum! read more

You don't see a lot of places for hot pot, so I was pretty happy when I stumbled on this one. Regarding the quality of the food, everything I had was absolutely delicious! I ended up splitting a pot with a friend and it was still a ton of food! A bit pricier than other hot pot places I've been, but I'd say it's worth it for the quality of their ingredients and the amount they give you. The staff is really great as well. I, being the clumsy fool I am, actually slurped my noodles too hard at one point and splashed broth all over my face and a drop got into my eye. I wear contacts so I had to run to the bathroom to wash my hands and take it out because it was burning soo bad! When I returned, the staff kept asking if I was okay and it was nice to see they were genuinely concerned about their guest. I'd have no issues on deciding to come back here for sure! 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

Rolling Boil - a table full of food and drinks - Hot Pot Near Me - Anaheim, California

Pricy for the portion, but a hearty meal to satisfy your hot pot cravings. Rolling Boil is located downstairs in the Anaheim packing district, my BF and I were seated pretty quickly when we came around 6 PM for dinner. Table is bar or table seating. They have different cuts of meats, prices varying from type of meat and amount. We got the 7.5 oz New York steak with spicy Szechuan broth. For sauces there are three types citrus, sa Cha, and toasted sesame, either choose one or all three. Each pot comes with a dish of veggies and noodles. We also ordered two sides of rice and milk tea. The hot pot broth was spicy and piping hot, very delicious, meat was super tender and thinly cut. Wish there were more veggies, noodles were mediocre. The side sauces were all solid with good flavor. Overall not authentic hot pot, but def will satisfy a hangry stomach. read more
