I will say, even though the reviews are good I felt like from reading the Google reviews, I did not know what to expect and I was a little hesitant coming here as I could not see all the food options. I was pleasantly surprised. This was unique that their hot pot bowls were sunken in the table, I never saw that before. It made it soooooo much easier to get the food out. They did have a good selection of food. Some unique things that I never saw before like black tripe, beef throat and some other things. For an adventurous eater, this was totally worth it.Things they did well:• The servers were extremely knowledgeable. They wanted for you to have the best experience and they were extremely attentive but not overbearing.• The food selection was fresh. The whole time they put new things out and were cleaning out the wilted greens. It was definitely appreciate.•*I will note is that it was busy, there were many occasions where food was empty in the buffet style. We had to wait 10-15 minutes sometimes to get what we want. For the price of not having to wait for food, we think it was worth itThings we did not like:• If one person had the hot pot, they charge everyone. I understand that it's for assurance purposes, but we did not like this as we would not have dishonored the rule if only one person had to pay.• Some of the meats did not seem fresh. The Squid was rock hard and it was quite disappointingIf you come here:• There was a decent wait when we left. We got in at 630 on a Sunday with no issues. They only do reservations that are over 8 people.• If you don't love seafood, this probably isn't for you. We have been to many different hot pots before, this one by far had the most limited amount of true hot pot meat we have ever seen. Yes there is something for everyone, but still. If you do Korean BBQ (which we did not) they had the most amount of meat I have ever seen. Which was kind of crazy to believe.If you are gluten free, the only broth you can have is the pork bone. It was good but I would have liked more variety.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free: there are limited sauces and broths. Beware but no cross contamination and that is much appreciated.
