The servers were nice and explained the menu items since it was my first time here. The vibe is chill to include the music. They have TVs around of game shows and movies.

We came here on a late Saturday afternoon so it wasn't crowded. They sat us right away. There were low on staff so service was quite slow and they kept forgetting some of our orders but it wasn't a big deal and not their fault anyway. It's a really nice and big restaurant. Sittings were comfortable. It's kept very clean! There weren't a lot of meat options I would say but they have amazing broth flavors! We got the duck and fish maw soup base and they were absolutely delicious! So flavorful and unique! I would come back here just for the broth lol. They do have a wide variety of sides, fruit bars, make your own sauce bar, etc. Pretty pricey but for the ambience and quality of the food, I definitely recommend. Considering that I'm typically not a hotpot person too!

The broths here are amazing!! I rank this place so highly based purely off the fact that they have top tier broths. I recommend the pork bone or chicken fish maw soup bases-- they are not oily at all and have so much flavor without feeling like you're ingesting an absurd amount of sodium. They have a sauce bar which is well stocked and allows you to get creative with what you want to dip your meat in. Their menu is very extensive and provides a lot of variety for tofu, vegetables, fish balls, and seafood. The service can be a little bit slow, especially when it gets busy but the staff are pretty friendly overall. Upon walking in, there is a strong smell in the restaurant but this is definitely a great place to stop by when you're craving something warm and comforting.

I've been here twice and they were pretty different experiences! The first time I came wasn't a great experience: we had to ask for certain things that we ordered multiple times throughout the dinner and by the time they had brought it out/remembered, we were full. They also will run out of certain drinks which is unfortunate, when you pay for the expensive menu for the unlimited drinks. The service was very slow that first time, so maybe they were understaffed! As for good experiences, the food and options are great. We pay for the more expensive menu for the unlimited drinks/juices, which are delicious! We like the fruit tea and the watermelon juice. As for the broth, I think they recently added the sukiyaki which is always enjoy! I also like the mushroom broth. If you get the tallow broth just note that the mild is already pretty spicy in my opinion!

Best hotpot place in SD with a bang for your buck! If I could bring this to my hometown I would gladly build 10 of them. THIS IS SO GOOD, I am obsessed. I usually get the mush room broth and this spicy one. I don't really recommend getting the spicy one if you cannot handle spice, I feel like it's toooo spicy that it prevents you from eating anything else. Otherwise there is a cool unlimited food bar with sesame balls, cool fried goods and a sauce bar you can make to personalize your soup a bit! There's even fruit added if you want a fresh taste after eating hotpot! The service is amazing. They're usually pretty quick and informative.
