*4.5* stars This…read morerestaurant has a very unique taste and dishes that aren't really seen anywhere else in the KW region (not that I'm aware of at least!) I saw it on Ubereats and saw there was a BOGO going on so I ordered it. I was pleasantly surprised at the complexity and variety of dishes they had! If you crave Asian food, I definitely recommend this place. This place seems to primarily be for hotpot, but I can understand with covid it's harder to see that side right now. Nonetheless, they have many options outside their hotpot as well. I got the seafood with vermecilli noodles for my partner and a Mala spice with fish noodles for myself. The beef pho was a BOGO option so I got them for tomorrow's meal. (the BOGO list was quite limited). They were delicious and I found the portion sizing to be quite nice! The soup was very very flavorful and hits the spot. Again something that I haven't found in the KW area at all until now and would crave (since it can be found commonly back home in Toronto) Packaging, wait time and everything was fine. Why it's not a perfect score is because of its price point. It's a lot pricier than some other places. Their primary feature is hotpot and noodles. The hotpot options seemed fairly nice but there's also a few other hotpot places just around the corner too. With the noodles, you can get the same large portion (but different noodle type, same richness in broth though) for half the price that they set it at here. I personally see this place as somewhere I'd get ever so often, or special occasions only. For student prices, I'd probably look to go elsewhere. However, you can't deny how good their broth is, so it's not a big enough deal to knock off a star completely.

This is the best AYCE hot pot place in KW in my opinion. Even though the restaurant is slightly…read moreinconvenient, I always look forward to visiting. This is one of the rare late night grabs that is not fast food. Environment: Like I said, it is not the most convenient restaurant for students, but trust me, it is worth taking the trip. The restaurant does offer free parkings for those who drive. On the inside, the place looks like those traditionally looking Chinese restaurants. The ventilation is not the best, so wear something you don't mind getting dirty and getting smelly in. Food: AYCE hot pot. The price doesn't include lamb however, it costs extra. The beef, chicken, fried pastry 面筋 are my favorites. They make a lot of the ingredients themselves, so it's always fresh and they are super tasty. Their slushies are really good too and the portion is quite big. The price for hot pot includes tips and tax as long as you pay cash. Service: Yeah...this place is notorious for the bad attitude of the owner. He's manageable as long as you don't piss him offer. Don't mess with the heat setting and find someone who can speak Cantonese and you're good to go :P

Leung Yue Hot Pot on King is my "go-to" Chinese Hot Pot place in Kitchener. The restaurant is…read morelocated in the same location as the now defunct Castle on King Restaurant. For those who don't know what Hot Pot is, from Wikipedia: it consists "of a simmering metal pot of stock at the center of the dining table. While the hot pot is kept simmering, ingredients are placed into the pot and are cooked at the table. Typical hot pot dishes include thinly sliced meat, leafy vegetables, mushrooms, wontons, dumplings, and seafood. The cooked food is usually eaten with a dipping sauce. In many areas, hot pot meals are often eaten in the winter." When we go for Hot Pot at Leung Yue, we always go for the All-You-Can-Eat option, so that we can get more of our favourite items. The staff has always been friendly with us, and has always been helpful. We love the great ingredients for the Hot Pot, including beef, chicken, pork, shrimp, among many others, which are freshly prepared. As another reviewer also pointed out, because of the large amount of food, Hot Pot is best experienced with a large group of people. If you are open to new dining experiences and have never tried it, I heartily recommend it... it's a lot of fun!

Tasty food, and lots of it!…read more First off, it's not really $30 AYCE hotpot, as you have to pay an extra $4-10 pp more for the broth, depending on how many you choose and what size. A quick note, their communication is poor. They're not being mean or ignorant or rude or anything, but for some reason it's just hard to figure out how to order, or to get supplies, etc. Even the signage isn't great, and their servers just seem kinda perplexed that you don't just know what's going on. Like, what is this extra $4 charge? What drinks are included, and for what prices, in the AYCE menu? How do you turn on this induction stove? How much food will we get? How much should we order? Can we choose spice levels for each of the broths, or just the one? Is dessert included in the AYCE? etc etc. Anyway, communication aside, there was a lot of food, and it was tasty! We underestimated the amount of food they would bring us after we circled our selections on their paper menu. We were afraid to get charged for leftovers so we just kept eating, and eating and eating. The meats seemed fresh, and there was plenty of it. We really appreciated having the hot food too, like the fried tofu, chicken wings, etc. We also ordered the popcorn chicken as part of the AYCE but they forgot to bring it. Overall, now that we understand how this restaurant works, I'd come back again for the quality and quantity of the food.

After so many month of planning and finally, First time visiting this place with my friends for…read morelunch and I'm in a mixed feeling not sure how I feel about it lol. The place itself is nicely structured... BUT, everything was so messy and cluttered w pile of papers boxes.. It didn't give us vibe of being at restaurant but rather visiting at my old uncle's Roger's house. The food wasn't too bad, had lots of great varieties of stuffs, meat and vegetable options to choose from, everything was neatly stored in container for self serve. I had tomato broth and it was super sweet like dessert. DO NOT ORDER IT! I replaced to pork bone and was so much better. The service though.... The servers weren't attentive, lack of attention, no instructions, no communication, lack of service over all and I was pretty confused to the point I felt bad kept interrupting them asking for almost everything... menu, plates, utensil... chopsticks, napkins.. literally EVERYTHING to start off my meal. They were probably owner's kid? Idk.. they didn't seem like to care and were hanging out at their own table w computer, device and eating their meals... . We weren't mad, just thought it was so hideous cuz no one seemed to care. The other customers at other tables.... Were filled w bunch of Highschool kids hanging out, they weren't really eating.. yet some were laying on table napping.. playing W phone... listening to music quietly.. (not much noise) . It reminded me so much like school detention room. Over all, they weren't rude or anything, so we just minded our own business eating away w girls and left. We did had a good meal thoughts cuz we were in our own zone cuz no one really disturb us or no interaction, made us felt like HOME to do whatever we needed.. helped ourselves! There is lots of room for improvement to bring more customers if they care enough to give better ambience and service. Will I come back...? Hmmm, if I'm so desperate for hot pot and around the corner May be... otherwise.... I won't even recommend it.

It's definitely worth the money compared to other lunch menus which is around $20 for an entree. Unlimited beef or lamb rolls that come on a plate, nicely displayed. Service is good too for an Asian place. Knowing how to speak Mandarin helps too. Lots of variety of veggies, and other things one would like to try in one's hot pot. The sauce station is wonderful too!! You can also get little appetizers and some hot food that is already cooked. The downside is their 3 items dessert area and one soft serve per person. The soft serve was not acknowledged to us the first time I was there. I had to ask about it the second time I was there. I loved each experience and I am glad we have a hot pot place in Mississauga.
