Lamei Hot Pot - Brookline

To be very honest, this is the most authentic Mala Hotpot in Boston. Their flavor is as close as mainland China Mala.

I just tried LaMei for the first time and I don’t think I’ll ever go to another hot pot place again. LaMei is the best! Great service and quality meats and veggies. Their spicy broth is ACTUALLY spicy. Good vibes all around.Shout out to Tai for making this the best hot pot experience I’ve ever had. He even made me and my friends a sauce to try.

2nd time there. Excellent fast service. Waitress made excellent recommendations and when asked, mixed a much better dipping sauce than I could have come up with. everything was delicious and we left feeling very satisfied. I recommend mixing up veggies, noodles and meat. The first time we didn't do any noodles and I thing it's a nice change to the other stuff.Vegetarian options: You could very easily make this a delicious vegetarian meal.

The staff were helpful with suggestions and very patient as well. There's many delicious classic hot pot options. The spice and broth is very tastefully done, not just flat flavor. Food came pretty quickly, and the atmosphere is perfect hot pot atmosphere. The bathrooms were very nice as well.Vegetarian options: They were good.

The best hotpot in the area!The service, the atmosphere, the broth and the food, everything is amazing! Definitely come back again!
