“Great quality, nice portions, and well decorated interior. They even provide a tote bin for your clothes to prevent it from smelling like spicy hot pot. One of the best hot pot restaurant in Chicago. Highly recommend.”
“The food was really delicious and it had a cute atmosphere , it was our first time experiencing hot pot and we didn’t know how to order. One of the kitchen workers helped us out on ordering. I definitely recommend this restaurant to family members and friends who go to Chicago to go eat there.”
“It's my first time to eat here. I didn't expect that I would come back again.”
“This is such a great family place the soups are so comforting, delicious and authentic also they have drinks available the service is great”
“Great ambience and setting in what is otherwise a very busy area. Has a good variety of meat options for the hot pot and is easy to order. The servers are polite and respectful and the place is clean. The taste per se could be slightly better though of the meat options. I rate it four star only because there are better hot pot options out there but again you would have a good experience here too.”
“First time ever dining at this type of restaurant. My husband and I really enjoyed the food and service. It was a little overwhelming to gobin blind without knowing what to do. But the staff was kind and answered all of our questions. We ordered to brother. One spicy and one mild. I usually like spicy food, but had to take a break. The spicy was spicy!💥🔥🔥 For meats we orded wages, garlic chicken, and shrimp. We ordered broccoli and noodles as well. Very tasty meal and great date night idea.”
“Lovely aesthetically decorated spot for authentic hot pot! We were seated right away, the booths are somewhat private and have nice tall partitions. The waiters were mostly hands-off which is fine, we just ordered via the tablet but they often walked by so it felt like they were available should we need them. Don't forget to assemble your own dipping sauce at the sauce bar while you wait for the food to come out. Extremely generous portions, we ended up ordering way too much lol but everything was delicious! Spent about $50 for two people. Highly recommend their tomato based broth or the mushroom one. We keep talking about "next time"! 😁”
“super nice services! love the workers and the dessert is a must get!”
“first time here for hotpot, really enjoyed it here. Vibes are vibing. the meat was really fresh. And the side dishes were good too. Overall my favorite hotpot place at chinatown. And the workers were super nice and helpful when I didn’t know anything. Always come back to check up on us.”
