"Definitely not authentic. The twice cooked pork is sweet rather than spicy. Their best dish, duck feet, is just ok."
Here are a couple of tips for first-time visitors:
1. The spice levels here are similar to those found in hot pot restaurants in Sichuan. In other words, a medium level of spice is already quite spicy, even for me. If you're used to medium elsewhere, it's better to stick to a little spicy here. If you can only handle mild at other places, opt for “little little spicy.” There’s no harm in choosing non-spicy options either; their mushroom soup base is delicious.
2. They offer half portions, which is a huge advantage. I often order too much hot pot because there are so many varieties I want to try. Having half portions makes it much more manageable for smaller groups. The best part is, the pr...
Eating spicy hot pot in the U.S. is quite an emotional experience! The mild spiciness is not overwhelming, but it’s definitely flavorful. The price for individual meat items ranges from about $10 to $20, and the quality of the beef is excellent. Vegetables are around $5. I left feeling full, especially enjoying the pig tripe soup which had a strong pepper flavor and a wonderful broth. There's also a self-service area with side dishes—I just wish they had more stinky tofu! Overall, the place is quite clean, and the staff are all very young.
We tried three soup bases: pork bone, spicy, and tomato. I didn’t enjoy the tomato flavor, but the pork bone soup was quite good. We also ordered a variety of meats and vegetables. The biggest disappointment was the pig brain — they didn’t prepare it well enough to eliminate the smell.
Overall, the hotpot experience was decent, but I would advise against ordering the pig brain.
The air conditioning was not functioning properly, making it uncomfortable to enjoy a hot pot meal while sitting in front of a stove. We also had to deal with mosquitoes biting us throughout our time inside the restaurant. The food was decent, but I won't be coming back. Unfortunately, the low rating is justified.

The air conditioning wasn't very effective, making for an uncomfortable hot pot experience while sitting in front of a stove. We were also bothered by mosquitoes biting us during the meal, even inside the restaurant. The food was decent, but I won't be coming back. Unfortunately, the low rating is justified.
The restaurant is located on the second floor, and you place your order through an app. While it's not an all-you-can-eat establishment, the prices are still reasonable. There's ample underground parking available. I found the duck tongue to be quite gamey.
I used to be one of the most loyal customer. The employee I haven’t see before, refused to serve me and my friend with a horrible attitude. Worst dining experience ever, never coming back again. Not worth for us to drive one hour and be treated like this.
When we arrived on Saturday, December 10, 2022, the restaurant was closed. We weren't certain whether this was a permanent closure, as there were no signs to indicate what was going on.

The prices are a bit high, and the flavors aren't very traditional. I think I'll try a different restaurant next time, as this one won't be my first choice.
Definitely not authentic. The twice cooked pork is sweet rather than spicy. Their best dish, duck feet, is just ok.
