I was there 2 nights ago and the food was great, we didn’t find out until we’re all stuffed that we can all do BBQ on top of the hot pot by adding $4 per person! This place is very kid friendly and is so huge that any size groups can easily fit in! Plus drinks are included, we had the Chinese style desserts at the end, it was amazing love this place

Easily the best AYCE hot pot joint I’ve been to. Usually all you can eat equates to tiny portions of sub-quality meats (translation: having to order over and over wasting time), but not here. The portions are very generous and nicely presented! The sauce bar and beverage cooler are well stocked with a nice drink selection including jasmine tea in a bottle! They even have Haagen dazs ice cream! Easy to order on a tablet, excellent service. Waitress explained everything perfectly! It’s also a really pretty space, clean, with a dedicated kid’s play area. Highly recommended!

Wonderful service, delicious soup bases, large drink selection, love the appetizer options as well the best scallion pancakes I've ever had. No lunch special so it's $40 all day for just hotpot or grill an extra $4 to do both. Premium items included but limited in quantity per person, but there's still a large menu in the ayce including blue crab. Oh interior is very beautiful and clean, servers are very attentive.

We happened upon this spot today while actually going to the Asian Market next door and we were starving and our kids are a bunch of bougie kids so they demanded hot pot. Right away you walk in and are greeted with huge fake cherry blossom trees that look amazing. Off to your far right, there is a play area for kids (HUGE THANK YOU, coming from parents of 3). There are delivery robots, staff placed strategically and most people happily conversing or on their phones while eating. The lady who sat us down explained how to use the tablet for service pretty thoroughly, and explained that all of the drinks in the fridges are included, as well as the typical bar food in the back. The amount of sauces and such is expansive versus other places like A Pot and other knock-offs. But the hot appetizers lacked from those as well. When we first came in (around 2pm) the hot appetizers hadn't been refilled and there weren't enough fries to fill a happy meal, and only a couple wings and other things. For drinks there's sodas, teas, juices and water of both traditional American and other varieties. Though I saw what seemed to be the start of a boba/tea area off to the immediate left when entering, it seemed to not be up and running during the day. Some other places have that option or have some premade so that, as an after thought, was a bummer. But otherwise ok! Service was fantastic. Super attentive, super quick. Only setback there was waiting nearly 10 minutes for another bowl of rice. Food was either great, or meh. We chose to do only the BBQ portion, and that limits the meats you get tremendously. Looking at other pictures, the thinly sliced beef, which at other hot pot/KBBQ places can be put on the grill for quick bites, was not an option here. Their angus steak cuts are a bit tough, and their bulgogi beef is just square-ish cuts of big tenderloins I believe. Sauce wasn't amazing, but it was the most tender of the slim choices. Garlic chicken was great! We even let ours sit a bit too long and they were still tender and juicy. Garlic shrimp was the biggest favorite for us and the kids besides the mussels. I feel like the BBQ meat options were super slim pickings. They're very attentive to the plates and help if they see the BBQ plate not working as well. This place also offers butter to help circumvent the burning and that contributes a GREAT deal to leaving not smelling like burnt BBQ hot plates like most places and that was a HUGE plus. SUPER AWESOME SIDE NOTES: -Huge fridge/freezer of Hagen Daaz Ice Cream bars. -They have semi private rooms on the right hand side that have hard closing doors, and on the left side they have curtain wrapped ones. We didn't ask how much extra they were or how to book them, but I image that if you have enough guest in your party or just want the privacy, you can most likely obtain a spot there! I think the curtain enclosed ones looked much more entertaining than the others. But for conversations better left at a whisper otherwise, the closed door options are great. - The bathrooms were extremely clean (according to the females in the fam today). The guys room even had Febreeze to mask the smells if need be! Super thoughtful. - They have sinks on the back wall with the fridges so if you want to wash your hands without going into the bathroom you can. SUPER THOUGHTFUL! Though this place could definitely use all kinds of additional additions, like more meat and veggie choices, more appetizer/quick bar options and such, the vibes are great. No overbearing or overly loud music, no TV's to keep you preoccupied, staff is attentive and helpful and they have an abundance of plates and extra utensils (not traditional ones) on the table. For traditional American silverware, that is obtained in the back near the fridges/extra bars. Also, as someone else has said, this restaurant, along with practically every shop on the strip, doesn't cater to Americans first, so English isn't always the first language from staff, nor from menus, food or drink items. But if that's annoying or offensive, you're SOL.

This place opened end of 2024 I been wanting to go check it out. Finally made my way there tonight with couple friends to try out. We went on a Monday night there was no wait at all. We got seated right away. It’s $40 ayce either hot pot of bbq. If you want to do both it’s extra $4. Every 2 people gets a free lobster that comes with the hot pot option. Since we had 4 people we were getting 2 lobsters. Instead of getting it raw you have the option for the to cook it in the kitchen stir fried with ginger and scallion. In addition to the lobster they have some items that are consider as specialty items which everyone is allow to choose 2 which are not unlimited. All the ingredients were decent quality except for the shrimp paste we didn’t really care for. After we cook it it’s supposed to have this “bouncy” texture but instead it tasted kinda soft/mushy. Drinks are also included in the price. They have a good selection of drinks from Asian drinks to soda. In addition you can enjoy some hot rice dumpling dessert or ice cream. This review is only for hot pot as we did not opt for the bbq

Came here with a friend and enjoyed my lunch. There is a nice variety of meats and veggies to choose from for the hot pot or BBQ. Sauce bar is ample but the dessert and side bar is a bit lacking. They give you nice portions of whatever you order to the table. The restaurant is large and nicely decorated and staff is attentive. Would definitely go back.

Excellent all-you-can-eat place. Stopped by on a Tuesday night with a co-worker and had a great experience getting the hot pot and Kbbq combo. The saff were friendly and helpful, proactively offering to swap out our grill and having some good recommendations. The food was good too with good portion sizes and the tablet system made it easy to put in orders and look back on what we had already ordered. The sauce bar is very well kept and labeled with some recommended sauces you can mix up yourself, drinks were self serve from the back with a nice variety, and for after dinner they had ice cream and sweets.
