Quantity over Quality Fun for a group in a loud and packed atmosphere. AYCE Hot Pot and/or Korean BBQ. Our party tried the BBQ and walked away disappointed. The selection of meet was limited compared to like business. While the octopus, squid, and beef bulgogi was good along with the salmon. The steak, pork bulgogi, and a few others were not memorable. The service was fast and our server offered up suggestions and steered us away from anything chicken. Good call! No complaints. While we won't go back for the BBQ based on better experiences within a reasonable drive, we do want to try the Hot Pot. read more

The food was so good the ribs where my fav and the spicy hot pot was so good definitely will go again!!!

All meat and sides had a old taste to them the freshest items here are the drinks and thats honestly just sad, was done eating after 2 rounds of meat which only the spicy pork belly was great everything else was just extremely disappointing read more

Finally got around to trying this place. I've driven past it a few times and a friend suggested we go. Wait time was about an hour on a Sunday at 6:30. Not too bad in my opinion because it was definitely packed in there. I've never done hot pot yet and was super excited for it. The waitress gave us a good rundown of the menu and we selected our options. I went with the spicy Thai broth and I got pork belly as my hot pot meat. For my K bbq I went with beef finger short ribs as my first meat. The revolving belt of other foods that come by are free to grab anything you want to add to your hot pot. I loved this idea. Only thing that sucked was there was a lot of things that I didn't know exactly what they were and they weren't labeled. However, that had a great selection. I got shrimp, blue crabs, two type of noodles, mussels, various veggies, and other toppings from the revolving foods. They also have a sauce bar with hot items at the end such as, crab Rangoons, steamed snow crab, chicken nuggets and other items. There were so many different sauce choices I didn't know what to pick. This is also a place you need to come to hungry, I made the mistake of eating a big lunch before I came here and next time I'll come empty because it was so much food that I felt I didn't even make a dent in it. My hot pot was so delicious. I loved all the options I chose. They do not do Togo as many places as this don't and they will charge you if your order up a bunch of meats and don't cook them. We didn't finish all of our food but we didn't cook it all and tried our best to finish so we weren't charged for that. Also there is a 90 min limit on the hot pot which is more than enough time of course. I really loved everything I tried and I can see why this place was so packed. Cant wait for round two here. read more

We always had an amazing experience at Seapot Korean BBQ & Hot Pot! The concept of having both Korean BBQ and hot pot in one place is perfect for groups because everyone can cook exactly what they like. The food quality was excellent -- the meats were fresh, well-marbled, and came out quickly. There was a great variety of options for both the BBQ and hot pot, including seafood, vegetables, noodles, and different broths. Everything tasted clean and flavorful. The restaurant itself was spacious, modern, and very clean. Even though it was busy, the service was attentive and friendly. The staff checked on us regularly and made sure we had everything we needed. What really stood out was how fun the experience is. Cooking at the table, sharing food, and trying different combinations makes it a great place for family dinners or hanging out with friends. If you're in the Plano area and enjoy Korean BBQ or hot pot, this place is definitely worth visiting. Jolie read more

Beware of fraud! I spent $44.36 and the suggested 18% tip amount is $14.75 which is 33%. The correct tip amount at 18% should have been $8. You need to calculate your tip! I am so disappointed that they tried to rip off their customers like this! read more

Love this place! Food is great but it can get crowded so be prepared to wait. If I were you, I'd ONLY sit in Jenn's section she's the bestttttt! 10/10 would recommend! Hopefully her bosses see this and give her a raise/promotion or both! read more

This is my favorite Hot pot place. The kids get a kick out of the conveyor belt of items that you can add to your hot pot. The best deal is to go during the week for lunch. We decided to go on a Saturday for dinner and it was super busy. One round of meat was enough to feed us 3. They also offer rice. The cool thing is their buffet area that serves various items like chicken wings, snow crab legs along with dipping sauces to create your perfect sauce. read more

Second time in this place but we went for lunch which has a good deal $19 for hot pot and add $5 for the korean bbq. I got the spicy thai soup which was delish. I mixed some quail eggs , fish balls, mushroom , toro meat and tendon! For the bbq we got pork jowl and the rib finger. The hubby made some dipping sauce from the bar and it complemented all the meat and fishballs. At a separate bar you make your sauce and you also have some dessert. I tried the tea like dessert with jelly and red beans. The service was ok , i was thinking it would be faster compared to the first time we had visited. Good thing there were only quite a few tables filled at 3 pm so even if the service was a bit slow it was ok. read more

My sister and I came here for an early dinner. This place is very busy and has a waiting list , so next time we chose a Korean bbq with hot pot in this area, we will choose to come here but we'll sign up for the waiting list on line. The food here is delicious and fresh. So yes it was worth getting on a waiting list. It's definitely an experience. To me this place gave off a club vibe . Music, atmosphere waiting area and bar. The tables have stove top heating elements for the hot pot and the center has a round grill to bbq your meats. On the side of the table is a conveyor belt of different veggies and seafoods to add to your hot pot. The wait staff is very attentive, they are available for extra meats for the grill and keep your water glass full. read more

Great food and fast service a little longer wait on the weekends. Make sure you arrive before noon on Sunday.

Love this place! I prefer hotpot, my husband prefers kbbq so we negotiate and get both! Doing both is only $5 more. On a Saturday dinner it was $35 each person for AYC kbbq and hot pot. It was so busy and we waitied a good 30minutes. Incredibly, the staff is still quick and helpful. You can make your own sauce at the sauce bar and there's a conveyor belt to grab all the veggies or noodles you want so food is readily available! I got the Thai soup and my husband got the pork soup. Both of us enjoyed what we got and left verrryyy satisfied. The restaurant is large, open, and has a nice bar read more

My son's girlfriend is Asian and she really enjoys this restaurant. I have been there twice and have been very satisfied with my meal both times. The thai style broth was tasty and the servings have been generous. The bbq bulgogi is great.They have good chicken wings and attentive service. Overall it is a large well managed restaurant. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

I finally was able to try this place out and I was shocked at how large of a restaurant this is! There were rows and rows of booths with the revolving plates for hot pot going around. It feels contemporary without going overboard. Clean and sleek. We were sat toward the middle and the table fit 4 people comfortably. I loved that the tables weren't crazy big considering it has to accommodate 4 individual hot pots and a kbbq grill plate. I felt like I could have a normal conversation instead of shouting and standing just to reach the grill. The meat was fresh and tasty. The meat was fresh and a good portion. They weren't skimping out on you. You can choose just hot pot or just bbq and for $5 more you can do both. The hotpot ingredients are on the conveyor belt so you can grab as much as you can eat. read more

My family went to Seapot in Plano for some hotpot on a chilly day. Even though we had a party of 16, we came early enough to get seated before the rush. They have a revolving belt that comes with plates of veggies, dumplings, noodles, and other sides to put into your hotpot. You get an individual pot here and I got their miso soup base. They have a sauce bar to create your own dipping sauce as well as some appetizers. This place is all you can eat so you just order meat and they'll bring it out to you. My favorite meat was the beef toro. If you like your meat with some fat, this one is very good. I thought the rest of the meat was just ok. My table was near the very end of the revolving belt so most of the items were gone, so that sucked. I really liked their dessert, I got some coffee/milk tea jelly with some grass jelly and added some red bean and sesame seeds, it was very refreshing. read more

Seapot - Herbal Chicken Broth, side of lamb - Hot Pot Near Me - Plano, Texas

This was my first time visiting Sea Pot! It was a very pleasant experience and I would come back again. Ambiance: There is a louder noise level with music and talking. The restaurant is huge and there is a lot of seating. The wait for dinner time on Friday was around 20 minutes. The service is fine but nothing too great. Meat: The meat for hot pot was all really good! I personally loved the Angus prime. The meat was really tender and not too fatty. I ordered that one multiple times as it had such nice flavor and texture. Hot pot: I got the miso soup broth and it was honestly such a great choice. The broth was so flavorful and it added so much flavor to the meat. I loved how the sauce was customizable and I made my own concoction that tasted amazing paired with my meat and veggies. The only downfall is the line for sauces or extra dishes was really long. Although, I liked how the hot pot sides were on a conveyor belt so it was easy to access and quicker than the sauce line. read more

Such a fun experience and the food is really good. Every time we go we learn more! Great staff too.

This is the type of place you come to when you want a dining experience. Our server was awesome at helping us navigate both the Korean BBQ and hot pot options. He suggested half orders on the BBQ so we could try various meats to get an idea of what we liked. The hot pot portion was entertaining as you start with a flavored broth and then pick items off the conveyor belt that goes by your table, or from the food bar at the front of the restaurant where you can create different dipping sauces. For the hot pot, my husband went with the Thai Pot and I did the Healthy Herb Soup - we both liked our selection. For our meats, we did the Rib eye and pork shoulder. They both had great flavor. For the BBQ, we did the Beef Bulgogi, Garlic Chicken, Pork Belly, and Garlic Shrimp. Our favorite was the beef and pork belly. Our least favorite was the shrimp (a bit too gritty for our liking). When we next visit, we'll likely just go with the hot pot option as there was plenty of food that way and we didn't even come close to trying all of the options. You are limited to an hour and a half at the table since it is all you can eat. They also have a charge for food waste so you want to be smart about how much you order. The ambiance has a bit of an eclectic vibe and the music was pumping during lunch! read more

Pretty good experience. Food is fresh and environment is nice. We only ordered meat once even could not finish. Will go back again.

Huge space with a lot of tables! Went for lunch at 11:30am and quickly got a table for 6. I noticed they also have tables for 10 as well. You can do either hot pot or kbbq. We weren't allowed to pick one or the other so our whole table did hot pot. The Tom yum broth was really good. You order the meat from your server and the vegetables and seafood come on the conveyor belt. There is also a serve yourself sauce bar. I believe it was $35pp for hot pot so it's a fair price. read more

Was visiting some friends in Dallas and decided to check this place out. The meat selection was probably my favorite of the experience here in comparison to some hotpot places I've been to in Houston. We kept the orders for the Toro beef rolls coming! The herbal broth was pretty good as well. A neat part of this place is the conveyer belt to grab all the rest of the hot pot fixins. If it was just the a small group, maybe 4 people, a cool gimmick. But with our group of 8, it was more of a hindrance. Would have preferred to get up and grab it myself from a table. Despite that, loved the selection of seafood, veggies and other fixins they had available. The line for the sauce bar could really you use some work, multiple times through the night the line wrapped around the place and there were no sauce dishes at one point. It was a very busy night when I went, but I've been to busier hot pot places that never had a problem like that. Dessert bar was also okay, did not care for the options besides the sesame balls, which were great. Also, eggs are an extra charge. Never been to a hotpot place where they charge extra for an egg. Overall, a good hotpot place if you're craving it and it's not busy, but do I think it's worth the over hour wait we had to be able to eat? No. read more

Finally got the chance to try this place! This has to be one of my favorite hot pot place. The food was fresh, they had a fresh bar with a variety of foods for all, and the sauce bar was amazing. Our waiter was super helpful, he was able to suggest that my son and I could share since he's only 4. The restaurant eat huge and the biggest attraction for us was the converter belt. Pretty cool place. Can't wait to go back! read more

I have an obsession with this place! Since the cold weather hit, I've come almost every week. I love their broths, I always get the house spicy, and I love that we all get our own pot. The restaurant is huge and they're always very accommodating when my whole family comes (20+ people). Everything is fresh, just that sometimes there is a little inconsistency with what they have on their conveyor belt and the taste of the broth (a couple times I got house spicy and all I got was straight oil). I noticed that during the week, they're always missing an item that I normally grab on the weekends. Sometimes their sauce line has a long wait so I wish they had a second one given how big their restaurant is. Their BBQ is alright, nothing special, but places like this always excel in one vs another and we go here for the hot pot! read more

This is our family's go-to spot for celebrating special occasions. It's more than a meal...it's an experience. We do the hot pot and Korean bbq combo so that we can enjoy all of the options. Food for the hot pot is transported to your table via a constantly moving conveyor belt. Food options constantly pass by your table: noodles, clams, mussels, shrimp, dumplings, tofu, vegetables, etc. You simply pick the ones you want & drop them in the pot. There are 6 broths to choose from and my favorite is the Spicy Thai. There are also great options for the bbq portion as well - pork belly, brisket, salmon, different marinated chicken options & even wagyu beef. The vibe of the restaurant is very fun and the service is typically pretty good and friendly. You do have a time limit, since it is buffet style and they enforce it, allowing you to cook and eat for 90 minutes. This place is definitely on the pricier side. Lunch ranges from $21-$26 and dinner/weekends are at $31-$37. But for a special occasion or fun night out, it's definitely worth considering. read more

The food was good and the service was excellent. The big problem was that there was only one grill for eight of us. That's slowed things down quite a bit for grilled food. Another issue was that the grilled food was a little thicker than I'm used to so it took a bit longer to cook. I have been to other Korean restaurants with meat was cut very thinly, which made it a little easier to cook adequately read more

Food is always delicious and the vibes are great. I've definitely recommended this place to friends who come from out of town

What sets a dining establishment apart of course is delicious and fresh food, but moreover, the service! Our server, Jin, was a superstar. He checked us on my friend and I often and made sure we never had to wait too long to get a new order or meat or a broth refill. Thank you Jin! Now on to the food. This is an AYCE establishment and we went on Good Friday so of course it was packed and we had to wait. But it wasn't too bad at all. The value is pretty awesome- you get all the hot top meats you want- and then the toppings come on a conveyer belt. For the meat you can order it as well and have it delivered one by one for the grill. The meats are fresh but their bbq cuts are thicker than most places but still tasty. I definitely recommend and will be back! read more

Seapot - Thin slice pork belly - Hot Pot Near Me - Plano, Texas

Huge place with great service! Nice place to try hotpot for the first time or if you're a hotpot enthusiast! Love the conveyor belt for hotpot ingredients. Just choose whatever and whenever you want to try! Great selection of items (we came on a Sunday so it was dinner all day price and selection). Lots of seafood, veggies, meats, noodles, etc to try. We opted for paying an extra $5 for the Korean bbq too. Kalbi was nice and flavorful. Our first order of meat was excellent. The second time we asked for Kalbi, it was a bit too fatty (but we still ate it!). Pork belly was thin sliced. I prefer a thicker cut. I like their iPad waitlist service and waitlist on yelp. Would definitely recommend. read more

I was skeptical of this place at first because I'm generally not a huge fan of all you can eat but I was very satisfied! Meat came out fresh and most of the vegetables on the conveyor belt were fresh as well. I eat a lot of veggies when I eat hot pot so not having to always wait for the server to bring them out was a huge plus. I got the healthy herb soup as soup base which was tasty and flavorful and complemented the ingredients very well. It was a fun place to go and I'd definitely go back! read more

My friend and I are regulars at Haidilao, but we've never really tried an AYCE hot pot place before, so we decided to go to Seapot because of all the videos I've seen on TikTok and Instagram -- and we're glad we did! We went on a Saturday right at 11:00 AM right when they opened, and it quickly filled up, which was a good sign. Food: I opted for the spicy house broth, and it was the perfect level of heat, thanks to the Sichuan peppers and peppercorns. The revolving hotpot sides and seafood on the belt were a fun concept. I tried the beef toro, beef brisket, natural angus prime, and akaushi wagyu beef, along with the New Zealand lamb. The beef toro and wagyu were very similar, but the wagyu definitely stood out -- so tender and flavorful! The sides were also fresh and plentiful, which I appreciated. The sauce bar was decent, wished they had a little more, but it's definitely doable. The hot foods were mediocre. The little dessert bar was great as well! Service: Grace was our server and she was extremely kind, knowledgeable, and informative. She gets the job done and makes sure you're doing good throughout your entire experience. Ambiance: chill but fast-paced, as you'd expect from a busy, popular spot. It was fun and lively, without being overwhelming. Overall, Seapot is a good spot for AYCE hotpot. The food quality and service was well paired with the pricing! read more
