“The food was delicious, and the staff were very attentive and provided excellent service. I would definitely come back here again if I have the chance”

“My server was awesome! He was willing to accommodate me and my party! The food was great. I asked the server to set up an Anniversary celebration for my parents and they did a tremendous job at getting our table set up. I felt served and cared for on this special day. This is probably one of my best experiences with Haidilao and at any restaurant! Keep up the great work!”

“the food is sooooo good!I enjoy the service here. Ellie is sooooooo sweet and helpful!I love her.❤️Highly recommended to anyone who wants to enjoy a authentic Chinese hot pot😀”

“Had such a great experience at Haidilao! Big shoutout to xiaoting. She was super friendly, attentive, and just really on top of everything the whole time. Made our meal so smooth and enjoyable. The craziest part—after we left, we realized our car got towed (and it was super late). Xiaoting literally drove us around to help find it. We went all over the place and it took a while, but she was so patient and kind the entire time. Honestly, that’s way beyond normal service. She’s genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve met. Give this woman a raise ASAP. Seriously.”

“Kai Qi was our waitress, we were very satisfied with her professionalism and her being genuine, we had a great time dining.”

“Good place to try new things here with many kinds of base soup, and you pay whatever you pick. Prices but look nice and great service, we happy have Evan very good to help and nice 👍”

“Can't recommend this place enough. Perfect for a special occasion as it is a touch pricey. The service is top tier from start to end and we couldn't have asked for more. We left with overly full bellies and happy hearts”

“Evan is the best server out of every haidilao I’ve been to. He’s amazing at hospitality and made us feel very warm and welcomed. He is very knowledgeable about all the items as well! This place is BYOB”

“Evan provides such reliable, friendly service every time we visit. He remembers our usual orders and checks in at just the right times. It's the main reason we keep coming back.”

“Amazing food and amazing service. I would recommend putting in a reservation as it does get busy at times. We celebrate our moms birthday here and they sang to her and gave her a gift bag. At specific times there are even some performances! The hand tossed noodles you get to see it being tossed and pulled in front of you, but because it is done in front of you there may be a delay but definitely worth seeing at least once. Good food and good snacks. The atmosphere was very nice and you get a semi good view of the city!”
