    Cheesey Milk Hot Soup in mild spicy
    Donna Mae T.

    Not bad and also not great. Ordered their Cheesey soup in a mild spicy level, comes with a iced green tea and it was all just ok. You order from the qr code so not much interaction with their staff, which is fine. One of the things I really liked about this location is that its a good amount of space with lots of tables and it was busy as it was lunch time however it wasnt to ok loud inside.

    Loved the Tasty Pot location in Elk Grove so we had excited the same level of quality and service as well at Tasty Pot in Newark. Boy, was I wrong. Located inside in a busy plaza in Newark, parking at the store front is very limited. But parking is available in the lot, just a quick walk. This location is a little dirty, seats and table aren't cleaned. Sauces are not wiped down or filled. It's unappealing because no one bothered to clean it up and refill the sauces. The staff were nice and polite but they were not very attentive. I had to get up many times for things like having my water refilled, asking for napkins and adding another item. Wished they were more aware and attentive versus chatting among themselves at the front counter. The food was decent but not so great. Although, Newark location is much closer for me, I would hold off on eating at Tasty Pot in Newark and eat it when I'm back in Elk Grove (which is two hours away). Disappointed; won't be returning.

    Stinky Tofu
    Jennifer T.

    Overall: 4.8/5 This place is our go-to when we want something quick, warm, and seriously satisfying. It hits the spot every single time. Our favorites are the stinky tofu and the 9 Taiwanese Supreme. The bowls are always filled to the brim- no skimping here. If we're not starving and just want a quick fix, we can even share an order. I also love that you can customize the spice level of the soup to your liking. Service is consistently great: fast, attentive, and friendly. They also have a solid selection of boba or fruit slushies that pair perfectly with the food. Comfort food done right. :p

    Fish cake & side of ramen
    Marilyn G.

    This is one of my favorite soup spots in the east Bay Area. We get seated right away every visit and order off the QR code located at the tables. We usually come during lunch hours but also came during dinner a few times too. I ordered the veggie soup & add a side of ramen and side of fish cake. I feel so good after eating here, the food is delicious and nutritious. During lunch they serve green tea which is a nice sweet contrast to the savory soups. the soups come out super hot so eat with caution. We love coming here a few times a year, definitely a fave of ours. all the customers seems to enjoy their meals and everyone is eating + having good conversations with family & friends. Overall, very chill vibe with hearty soup options! our tab price is roughly about $45-$50 for 2 people. looking forward to our next visit here, yummm.

    7. Kimchi Dumpling Hot Soup (mild)
    Grace H.

    Love Tasty Pot! This location is convenient and pretty consistent throughout the years. I recently revisited on a Saturday around 1:00pm and it was packed with a short wait. You order via your phone which is nice and convenient, although I wish they were a bit more thorough on what's included in each pot. Although I know my order, my husband isn't a huge fan of fish ball, fish cake, tofu, etc, so it'd be easier to pick if the info was listed. Our order came out fairly quickly, maybe about 10-15 minutes. Food was good portion per usual and soup was delicious. It was hard to get service though and flag down employees for more soup so we ended up not getting more. Overall, will be back. I enjoy their food and consistency. Service is alright but fast.

    點了一個日式鍋,晚一點補上點評。
    CJ H.

    I've been eating at this restaurant for almost ten years. In the beginning, the cabbage used to be cooked very soft, and they even served fresh raw seafood. But now, most of the dishes are undercooked and too tough, and the seafood isn't as good as before. Because some customers complained that the seafood was too raw, others who don't know how to cook it properly often end up with stomach issues after eating. Overall, I always order the Japanese seafood hot pot with rice, and the soup base is still excellent, with generous and good-quality ingredients. The only real problem is that the cabbage is just way too hard! On the bright side, the sauce is great, and they even serve complimentary green tea during lunch. The service is good, the environment is clean, and the prices are reasonable. All in all, I still recommend this restaurant! 我已經吃了這家店將近十多年了,從一開始高麗菜都會煮的很爛,還會提供生鮮的海鮮;直到現在基本上菜品都超級硬的,海鮮也因為被客人舉報太生,導致有些客人不知道怎麼確實煮好,一吃就拉肚子了。總體來講,我每次來都點日式海鮮鍋配米飯,湯頭還是非常好的,料也不錯實在,唯一問題就是高麗菜真的太硬了!另外醬料是真的不錯,午餐還會提供免費的綠茶。服務也不錯,環境也乾淨,價格中規中矩,基本我依舊推薦這家店!

    1. Beef Hot Soup
    Carolyn N.

    My favorite place for individual hot pot hands down. Other individual pot places simply don't compare because the broth and seasonings at Tasty Pot are the most flavorful of them all. They definitely have the best beef pot. The availability and variety of toppings is abundant, anything you can think of they likely offer. There's also a decent drink menu so you can order boba to enjoy with your meal. I believe they offer free iced tea with lunch but I usually come during dinner so I've only gotten it a few times. However, I remember the complimentary tea being good! The drinks you can order off the menu are yummy too. Service is always attentive and quick, and most importantly consistent. I know I can expect my order to come out exactly how I like it every time. Also Tasty Pot offers a rewards system if you put down your phone number. I'm a regular but I find even when I don't dine here as much I still accumulate enough points for a free pot fairly often. This is my reliable go to restaurant when I want to have a satisfying, comforting hot meal. The best!!

    Beef hot pot with extra lamb slices and vermicelli noodles

    Love the food here. Service is quick. Ambiance is friendly with music and sports on tv.

    Dumplings

    Came here on a Sunday around 12:30 with a party of 7. They were busy which is good thing and had to wait about 30 minutes. Although the wait was longer than we all liked it was worth it. The food came out fairly quickly and we were eating in no time. Very well priced for the quality and my whole group enjoyed it. I personally got the beef hot soup and ordered it mild. Although it was mild it had a decent kick and more than I would like. Next time I would order it no spice as that's my preference. Highly recommend this place and looking forward to my next visit!

    Had lunch at Tasty Pot with my family. There were a couple of unexpected things. The tea was sweet, which wasn't what I was expecting. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's something to be aware of if you prefer unsweetened tea. We also ordered the stinky tofu, but the waitress told us it wasn't fried. We decided to cancel that order, which was a bit disappointing. I appreciated the waitress letting us know, though. The hot pot itself was fine, and the service was decent. It was an okay meal, but the tea and the tofu were a bit unusual.

    This hotpot was pretty good similar to the one in milpitas. The flavors are really similar but the service here was more attentive.

    Vegetable Thai soup pot
    Kimm N.

    Food - 4/5 we used to frequent tasty pot chains a lot in the old days but haven't been to one much in the past 1-2years. Went with my usual order of Thai soup pot but found the soup to be a little less rich in flavors this time. Service - 3/5 I have never been to a place where they out of the blue, turned up volume of music and blast loud in middle of our eating and chatting. I wonder if it's because the store closes in 20mins time and they just wanted to get patrons to finish up and leave but I can tell you for sure it was really uncomfortable eating in that condition. I was so tempted to ask them to lower the volume but refrained from doing so. Ambience 3/5 parts of the floor was slippery and greasy. Had to walk super slow to avoid slip.

    Miso hot pot
    Phil L.

    This is a classic if you want to eat something tasty and warm while in this cold weather. I simply cannot resist the taste of a nice boiling hot pot in rainy weather. The miso hot pot (medium) has a nice kick, which is spicy and savory. Lots of goodies in there. Service was prompt and ambiance is casual.

    Ask the Community - Tasty Pot

    Do they still have outdoor seating?

    No they do not.

    Outdoor seating back again with the uplift of restrictions?

    Yep! Just went last week.

    Does anyone know how the food is packaged for takeout? Is the soup separate from the meat, veggies, etc?

    All together!

    Are they currently offering take out during COVID-19?

    Yes, take out or delivery through doordash and ubereats

    Is there any veggie type?

    Yes, there's a vegetarian pot option.

    Can I order veggie pot in a soup base other than thai or mild? I prefer the other soup bases, but prefer veggie pot (it is ok if soup base is meat based)

    Their broths are either meat of veggie based. Just let the server knows what kind of broth you'd like. Same when replenishing your pot. Let them know that you want veggie. Otherwise, the servers will serve you meat-based broth.

    I know when it comes to the sauces there is a garlic soy sauce, sha cha sauce, chili oil. Does anyone know what the other sauce is? I've asked my waiter and he told me it was soybean chili sauce, but i still cant fond it in stores

    You should be able to find soybean chili sauces in any Asian market like Ranch99 or H-Mart. Hope that answers your question!

    Is there a veggie broth? I see the veggie pot but is the broth used also vegetarian based?

    Yes, spoke to the Newark CA Tasty Pot, they answer: " it is vegetarian based soup ".

    Does the lamb pot taste similar to Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot? Is it good and worth getting?

    Not the same. But it's super tasty! Totally worth get it. A small tip: their spicy is super spicy. Medium is already too much for most people

    What kind of sauces do they have? When I asked them, they were kinda clueless on telling me what it was. They said it was just "sauce" -_-"

    The sauces on the table are soybean paste, chili oil, garlic soy sauce, and satay sauce.

The broth was really good with really good flavor and was full and creamy in a rich way without blocking my arteries. I thought it was a good idea to have two kinds of broth. Beef and broth like besties, and like after like two seconds, fully cooked and still really beefy. The shrimp paste had bounciness. The staff was amazing at cleaning up the area.

A little more frequent cleaning would go a long way. The whole setup is fully automated--you order from a tablet, get automatically charged for sauces and random apps you may not even want, and then piece together your meal from there. Our "extras" included old marinated mussels, chicken feet, and some sad-looking jelly desserts. The broth was watered down, portions were small, and lunch for two somehow came out to almost $100 with tip and no drinks. For that price, I shouldn't be leaving hungry and annoyed. There are way too many good hot pot spots around to waste another visit here.

Don't let the fair pricing fool you, it is a really nice restaurant!! The interior is incredibly clean & well maintained, it's a whole experience having dinner there. After dinner (if you have children, this is key) they give you a scoop of ice cream, which is included with your dinner / lunch. I took my little daughter there once, for lunch, during daddy-daughter day. She REALLY enjoyed it. They have great meat options & the noodles, vegetables, etc - you go grab yourself, buffet style. So you go load a plate with whatever you'd like to add to your cook pot, along with the meat. They have little soft boiled quail eggs that you can add to your pot - HIGHLY recommend!! They have, if I recall, 4 or 5 different soup bases to choose from. I've had three thus far & they have all been incredibly good. PLEASE NOTE - the spicy one is no joke, I am a spicy food connoisseur & I will admit, even on my "0-10" scale, that red spicy soup base was easily an 8. Interestingly enough albeit very spicy, the red soup base has excellent flavor; in other words it's not just pure pain & terror & capsaicin overdose... It's spicy AND very flavorful. Give these guys a try!! We will definitely be returning, although this has to be more of a quarterly thing. As eating hot pot with little kids is NOT easy for parents - constantly making sure they don't spill boiling soup on themselves. What we did was asked for a bowl / plate; so we could serve the children the various meats, noodles, vegetables after they were cooked... Also to prevent the children from sticking spoons into a vigorously boiling pot. (SAFETY NOTE - the cook pots are directly in the table, built-in cooktops. So be vigilant with small children. The wait staff will give you a tutorial on how to increase/decrease the heat on the burner and/or how to shut it off when you're done cooking. Aside from my concern of the children burning themselves, it is an EXCELLENT experience for kids nevertheless).
