Reviews
We had a truly wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were exceptionally friendly, professional, and welcoming. Since it was our first time trying hot pot, they kindly took the time to explain how to enjoy it properly, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The meat was also sliced perfectly — thin enough to cook quickly in the soup while still being tender and easy to chew. Highly recommended, and we will definitely come back again. We ordered: Hot pot( beef soup, wagu, neck beef, rice noodles, mushrooms, potato, chinese cabbage) + sauce OTS
This is a very authentic Chao-Shan hot pot. The beef is very fresh. The soup base is very light and nourishing. Both my friends and I really like it. The hot pot rice porridge is also highly recommended. Eating a bowl on a cold day will warm you up. It's very suitable for winter.
The quality of the meat is excellent, and their broth selection is rich and flavorful—a genuinely authentic hot pot experience. On top of the great food, they are currently running a Lucky Wheel promotion where you're guaranteed a prize! We loved spinning the wheel for a chance to win, especially the free pot of their NEW soup base or half-price specialty bases. It added a fun layer to an already fantastic meal. Highly recommended!
Excellent Chaoshan-style beef hotpot! The beef is super fresh and thinly sliced — especially the “Diaolong” and “chest fat” cuts were amazing. The soup base is rich but not oily. Staff are attentive and help guide you on how long to cook each cut of beef. The environment is clean, prices are reasonable Highly recommended for hotpot lovers who want an authentic Chaoshan beef experience!
This isn’t my first time here, and I personally think it’s the best hotpot restaurant in the industry. This time I came with friends and everything was delicious. The beef was very fresh, the soup base wasn’t greasy at all, and the restaurant’s new “nine-grid blind box” is highly recommended. It includes beef, fish slices, abalone slices, and marinated shrimp. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back!
