Hipot Hot Pot Restaurant

Went with a friend for lunch. Free parking in lot, easy to get to and find. Service was decent. Portions large and tasted okay, but not the best I've had. Not likely to return.

It was fun...but I didnt feel very well after....which is why this review is so short They won't give you lobster unless you ask A LOT! I probably would never go back.

We were here on a Monday night for dinner and we couldn't be happier as I was craving for hot pot that night. The food served was very fresh, especially the seafood. We had $10 lobsters were still moving when it was served on our table and the oysters are cut open and served on the half-shell (not the ones that come in a can.) We decided to try their regular sliced beef (the nicer beef was $2 extra) and it was already perfect. The fat content was minimal, but not to the extent that would make the beef tough or dry when cooked. Their fish noodle was pretty good and they had a nice selection of veggies. One thing that was lacking was their dipping sauces, but that typically doesn't bother me too much given that I typically only use the chinese bbq sauce (sha-cha,) soy sauce and a raw egg. This isn't the cheapest place for hot pot in the area, but it sure was fresh and I don't mind spending a little more for quality food.

We had dinner here on a Saturday in the end of February. I am guessing the ventilation system is not as strong as it should be because there was SO MUCH condensation in there and very foggy. It was hard to breathe. The food was good. The chicken was tender surprisingly! I've tasted better beef. I'm just glad that when you order, they don't give you SO much so you don't waste food. The service was okay for a really busy Saturday.

Food is terrible, not fresh, no special sauce, limited choices, and have lots of hidden add on charges. Will definitely not return again.
