Perfect First Hot Pot Experience!
This was my first ever hot pot experience, and every choice I made was just perfect! It was such a fun experience, and I didn’t want to stop eating even though I was very full. I really appreciated the variety of vegetables offered to add to my soup.
I used absolutely everything and couldn’t recommend more highly.

Excellent Hot Pot Experience
My experience at the restaurant featured an individual pot style hot pot at the bar counter. The service and good quality were excellent. I found the sweet broth to be one of the best I’ve ever had.
They provide big enough portions of vegetables, rice, and noodles, which were more than sufficient to fill me up. The meat quality was great, and the sauces were well prepared for dipping.

Excellent Broth and Attentive Service
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The broths were excellent, as was the food and service. The staff provided just enough attention throughout the meal, being respectful and charismatic while ensuring I had everything I needed without being intrusive.
The best part is that you get to take your broth home!

Gem with Amazing Vegetarian Options!
This restaurant is a real gem. We went here because of the great vegetarian options. Usually at other restaurants, I have to pay full price although I'm vegetarian.
They are very kid friendly too, providing crayons and a coloring sheet. I also liked that they immediately asked about allergies and took care of it very well. Another great thing is that you will be seated at one big round table.
Most important thing though is that the food was amazing (although I can't say anything about the meat). Loved the service, loved the atmosphere, loved the food, loved everything!

Family Favorite for Delicious Hot Pot
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It has always been one of my family's favorites for hot pot. The food is absolutely delicious!
My son loves to cook his own pot here, which makes it a great experience for kids. We found plenty of parking with free street parking, and reservations are not required. The price per person is reasonable, ranging from $20–30.
We enjoyed the indoor dining area and the overall atmosphere and service were excellent, both rated a 5 out of 5.

Amazing Hot Pot Experience!
My experience at this restaurant was truly memorable! I discovered one of the BEST hot pot spots in SD. The energy upon arrival was fantastic, and the seating in a big square made it fun and more sociable.
Our host provided amazing recommendations, and I've found my new go-to: the Sukiyaki! Everything was soo good and fresh. I'm already planning to go back this week!

Outstanding Service and Fun Food Experience!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The service was outstanding, and the food was great. Our server was incredibly helpful, offering excellent recommendations for both returning diners and first-timers, which truly made the experience fun.
The meat and vegetables were all fresh. Preparing my own broth to cook in was a unique experience, but one I would definitely repeat!
