Tried the Cheesy Milk Hot Soup this visit and it was good. My goal is to try all their soup variety but I'm quite sure everything tastes good since there's just a few I haven't tried yet. We love getting our hotpot craving fixed here.

#1 Beef
Victoria E.

Food is amazing! Had the beef pot my friends had the following: the veggie, Japanese miso and tofu. One of my friends brought her little one so we got appetizers to share. The service was wonderful very accommodating for my friend's little one even customized one of the appetizers for him. The ambiance is simple clean and fun. Eat here if you want good tasty pot!

I have been in the mood for hot pot recently with all the cold and rainy weather. Had stopped by sourdough&co a couple weeks ago and realized there was a Tasty Pot next door. Finally had time on a Monday to come here for dinner. The service was very fast and friendly. We were able to pick our seat when walking in as it was a slower night. There were still many open tables. This is a smaller restaurant with pretty chill vibes inside. Looked through the menu for about 10-15 minutes and then had our order taken. The food came out pretty quickly after ordering. We had our own pots with the burners underneath to keep the soup boiling. I had the kimchi dumpling soup and my friend ordered the beef hot soup. I didn't realize how much we could or couldn't customize so for our first time we just ordered the soups as they came. If we come back, I will definitely customize as there were parts I really liked and others that I didn't. And now I know. I think I was expecting more of a hot pot shareable experience and this was different with the individual pots. Overall, Tasty Pot was okay. Nothing overly outstanding unfortunately. But the service was excellent and the server checked on us many times and offered to refill the soup broth which was nice.

Stopped in for a quick dinner. Because it was a week night, there were plenty of tables. Was immediately seated, menu provided and water served. Service was quick...10 mins from the time they took my order til I received. I ordered the Miso Japanese Hot soup with vermicelli and fried calamari. The breading on the calamari was light and the pieces were BIG! Loved my soup selection. They even came back to add more hot soup Thank you and I'll be back

Tasty Pot is a satisfying personal or shareable hotpot experience, especially with the cooler fall weather and darker evenings. Hot Soups Menu #1-#7 are standard portion size, and #8-#12 are larger and meant to be for more than 1 person. Once you pick your Hot Soup flavor and spice level, you can add on veggies or meats that don't already come with. Rice or noodles, and additional sauces at the table (miso, garlic, chili). Refills on broth if needed. Mild level spice is generally too hot for me, and I lean towards rice over vermicelli noodles. I've tried the #1 Beef, #2 Lamb, #3 Cheesy Milk, #4 Curry, #7 Kimchi Dumpling, #8 Thai, and #10 Miso. I've also had their fried potstickers, nori fries, calamari, and tea. My favorite is the #4 curry (NO SPICE), mostly due to the variety of fish balls and it being a pork-based bone broth. Open late (9 or 10 PM) and service is always good. At lunchtime, an iced black or green tea is included with the meal!

Thai Flavor Hot Soup
Anjel A.

It was my husband's and my first time here, and we brought our two kids with us. I got the cheesy milk, which I enjoyed. My husband got the Thai soup, which he thought would be different. I liked how the waitress kept asking if we wanted more broth. I love drinking a lot of broth, so I assumed it was unlimited. I think the burner keeping our pot boiling may have turned off, because I ran out of soup and she never came back to ask if I wanted more broth. A table behind my husband, who arrived after us, kept getting asked if they wanted more broth. At one point, we made eye contact, but she didn't come back to check on our table, so we just asked for a to-go container since we don't like wasting food. Luckily, another waiter noticed my bowl without broth and asked if I wanted more, and I said yes. If we were to come back, we would probably try a different soup other than Thai but I would order the cheesy milk again.

Beef Hot Soup
Jessica D.

Their lunch combos are so worth it! It comes with either green tea or black tea. If you run out of soup, they also offer refills for your broth. Their beef soup and lamb soup are so yummy!

Half & Half Milk Tea (With Boba)
Ann H.

This is a typical hot pot establishment. I ordered the Japanese miso hot pot, which consisted of sliced pork, crab, udon, assorted vegetables, and rice on the side. The broth was lightly seasoned. I sampled my sister's beef hot pot and it was very flavorful. I prefer the beef hot pot over the miso hot pot. We also ordered a side of small sausages, which was just okay. The fries were great as it consisted of some type of seasoning. They ran out of calamari so we settled for the egg rolls, which was just okay. The milk tea tasted somewhat watered down. I can barely taste the flavor of the tea. Sadly, I am not impressed what the quality of the food.

Thai Flavor Hot Soup
Jessica C.

We came here with a group of 15 while in town for a business trip, and I have to say--the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. One thing that really stood out was that they were able to split the check individually for each of us, which made things so much easier since most of us needed receipts for reimbursement. I really wish more restaurants did this! The hot pot experience overall was enjoyable. The broth was flavorful, and the ingredients were fresh and plentiful. I ordered the Thai bowl, which came loaded with seafood--so definitely keep that in mind if you're not a big seafood fan. It also had thinly sliced of beef. I paired mine with a side of rice, but in hindsight, I think noodles would have been a better choice to soak up the broth. One small issue was that the soup came out extremely hot, which made it tough to eat quickly, especially since we were on a tight schedule. Still, it's better than lukewarm soup any day. The complimentary green tea was a nice touch--light, soothing, and perfect with the meal. All in all, it was a good experience and I'd come back again, especially with a group. Great service and a solid hot pot spot.

Japanese Miso Hot Soup
Meng Y.

You choose what flavor you want for your hotpot and they vary on ingredients. I've gone to lunch 2 times at this location. It is a good deal for the price. I can never finish all of it and have leftovers to take home. They pour you extra broth if you run low on soup. Food seems fresh and the flavors are good. I've ordered the Japanese miso soup and the curry one. I got mild for the spice level and it's a bit spicy. For lunch, you get green tea or black tea with your meal and you get to choose rice or noodles for the side. The service is good.

02/22/24. 3.5 stars. #1) Beef Hot Soup. $17.99 for Dinner. Chewy beef. Delish broth! Food coma-ish. Contains nuts. Free unlimited broth.
Sharmaine M.

02/22/2024 Thursday 6PM. Not busy at all. We walked in, greeted and seated right away. Back when they first started, I went to the one in San Mateo, CA. I think the prices were a lot cheaper back then and you can order different sizes. Correct me if I'm wrong. It's been a really long time and from what I remember, it was very delish! Ambiance has a hipster vibe to it. Dead ass reminds me of "ABG vibes" *tongue emoji* ahahah. ANY WAYSSS.. 3/5 * Beef Hot Soup Dinner $17.99+. Contains nuts. Napa, beef slices, vermicilli, enoki, mushroom, taro, tomato, tofu, tempura, corn, meatball, kamaboko, fried tofu skin, imitation crab meat, fish cake, clam, cilantro, and scallion. - Fiancé and I decided to share because $17.99 is no joke! Luckilly, it filled us up. The beef slices were a little tough and chewy. The broth was delicious but I slipped into a food coma instantly! You can ask for more broth if ya like. 4/5 * Calamari appetizer $8+ some thing. - It's on the table menu. Wished they cooked it for a couple more minutes or so cause there were parts where it was a bit soggy. Over all, I loved how tender it was! Flavorful. In the past, I used to always eat AYCE hotpot. Now that I'm older, my stomach can't take in too much food. I tend to eat 6 small meals a day now vs. 2-3 big meals. This hot pot will do. I love how they ask if you want more broth! Excellent customer service. Happy Eats Ya'll!!! =)

Kimchi Dumpling Hot Soup after mixing the egg
Dang Y.

We've been coming here and enjoy their hot pot. Glad that we have a hot pot place near by especially for cold weather season. Service is good. They make sure to fill your pot with broth if you want more. Today we had eggrolls, lamb hot soup, and kimchi dumpling hot soup. Eggrolls was good. My sister's lamb soup was mild spicy, but she said there's still a kick to it. The kimchi dumpling soup is medium spicy just as I like and the kimchi flavor is not that strong that it will overpower whole dish. It's just right. All in all a good meal. Thank you.

Is each soup mean to be per person or do you share with the group? From the reviews, it looks like each person orders their own "pot". Is that correct?

Bowls 1-7 are smaller portions and my friends each ordered one. They finished their soup just fine with some leftover soup. Hubby and I opted for the bigger portion, #10 (Japanese Miso soup) and we shared one bowl. Since I added a side order of corn…

I believe our server's name was Long (I forgot to confirm on the receipt before leaving), and he was absolutely amazing. He was so kind, personable, and completely on top of everything we needed throughout the entire meal. Also there was also another young man that periodically stopped by to give us waters or pick up empty place that was very kind as well. The inside of the restaurant is always very clean, incredibly spacious, and I really love the modern decor and vibe they have set up. Plus, getting the lunch hot pot for just $21.99 is such an amazing deal for everything you get! The food was incredible as always, with a great selection of fresh meats, seafood, and vegetables right off the conveyor belt, but We always get the Spicy Miso broth and Beef toro, Pork belly, Beef brisket, Rib eye, New Zeland lamb, Collar butt.

My personal best is about 36 in one sitting. I eat other things too!! The Hokkaido scallops are great in Thai broth as well. I like the sauce bar, and it's always stocked well. I don't think I've ever seen it low on anything. The side dish bar is also well stocked. I like the picked radish and lettuce to eat with my hot pot and sometimes bbq. Their meat selection is great and you don't have to go the expensive to have a good selection of meat for your hot pot either.

Genuine interaction and gave us recommendations that we ended up loving. It was so cozy and a very calm atmosphere. They were constantly checking on us & cleaning our table. We even met the owner and he was so kind and funny. 10000/10 service! Food wise. Absolutely amazing. The broth was very traditional in the best way. Not salty at all, super umami! They let us sample all their broths and they were all super rich. Their appetizers were perfectly portioned and tasted amazing for my family and I. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEIR GREEN TEA ICE CREAM! I'm very VERY picky with green tea, as I usually drink the tea completely plain. When I tell you, it's so creamy and PERFECTLY sweet, it is! Even better, it's homemade. I wish they had to go containers for their ice cream because I would SO buy it! This place is a hidden gem! I truly recommend it for all the more shy and picky eaters! No regrets, 10000/10 (not glazing), & would definitely take friends and family here!

I ordered the Large American Kobe Beef with miso and crab broths. It was an average size to feed two people, however I was hungry so I was not full after the meal. The dish came with thin sliced beef, veggies, and choice of noodles or rice. The portion of noodles was very small. The crab broth was my favorite of all the broths and had a nice crab flavor. The meal came with dessert which was a choice of ice cream; I chose the cookies and cream. The chicken wing appetizer was scrumptious. The wings were fried and coated with sauce with lots of jalapenos. Service was good as the employee offered samples of all their broths to assist in making a selection. After the food was served he checked if we needed anything and refilled water. There is indoor and outdoor seating. It was busy on a Saturday evening so reservations are recommended. Free parking is on the street.

We honestly have a great setup at home and much better tasting sauces with sliced premium shabu beef from local groceries at half the price of our bill eating at Tao's, but we used to come anyways thanks to the great service and convenience of having everything prepped and ready to feast. The only reason for coming here now no longer exists. My family of 5, including 2 little ones, were very hungry and decided to swing by with empty stomachs. Unfortunately, we got stuck with one of the laziest and most inattentive servers we've seen in a long time especially considering their prices. Our server was an Asian gentleman who, we strongly assume, seemed to be a family or friend of the owner given he wore whatever he wanted to wear (wasn't in uniform), was on his phone often, and didn't give much attention to our party when we were trying to flag him down. The tables next to us were being attended to by other servers. We placed our meat order (3 meats at a time) at the same time as the other tables, yet our guy came back acting surprised that we hadn't gotten our meat yet while the others around us got theirs much earlier. It got to a point that I had to get up and approach him near the front to ask if we could order more meat while he was busy having fun on his phone (promise you he wasn't working or attending to any orders). If you enjoy this spot - Option A is the way to go with their best meat Angus Ribeye. Option B is a great alternative with their American Kobe Beef (go with fatter). Their house sauce is too lemony for our liking so we typically customized our own meat sauces with Ponzu as the base. Sesame sauce is subpar and we typically end up not bothering with it. We won't be coming back. Was good while it lasted! If you're the owner and reading this, steer clear of hiring your lazy family or friends or perhaps hold all workers to the same level of professionalism. I have to say, our regular server was there that same night and she took over our party's orders after seeing how frustrated we were - she deserves a raise or, better yet, a promotion! She's always on point and I believe we kept returning because of her prompt, friendly, and professional service. One bad apple ruins businesses, sorry to say!
