Fiery Hot Pot Buffet

July 2022: Grew up close by in the Golden Gate Heights area so I know this area very well. I had dinner here on a Friday night and made reservations for a party of six. They were a little late getting us seated but were very nice and friendly about communicating the delay. 👍 We didn't get the all you can eat and chose the "get out of school" set menu. I found the portion to be quite large. I went with the ramen, waygu tender cut, ribeye steak, shiitake 🍄, winter melon, watercress, lotus root, and potstickers for my choices. We chose the beef and pork broths. Everything was really tasty 😋. I was surprised that the ramen was the instant type (was expecting fresh noodles). But it was still very tasty. Beef slices were razor thin which cooked very quickly. Tasted fresh and flavorful! Sides were all great 👍. Beer options were great. Had a Deschutes fresh squeezed IPA. They had 3-5 other beer on tap! Overall, would definitely come back again for more delicious hot pot 🍲!

A little shy of $40 per person at 37.99 (as of 1/18/2022) they added 18% gratuity on top of that but it was well worth every penny. Especially when you consider its all you can eat. Not sure if there's a time limit on all you can eat tho but in 2 hours we didn't feel rushed and we ate a good bit. Went with a party of almost 5 (4 and a well behaved 3 year old who ate free) please don't bring your crying kids here because it would really ruin the atmosphere for everyone else. They did ask for ID and proof of vaccination for covid which made our family feel really safe in an indoor seating eating environment. Will definitely go again when I'm back in the area.

It's a hotpot buffet with a decent variety of self serve items to choose from. The meat is order thru the waiter and brought out quite fast. The staff is quite efficient as the restaurant was not that large. Soup base was very good along with the freshness of everything. They don't have a large variety of green veggies and mushrooms. Dessert was limited to 2 choices. $33.95 for dinner was not a bargain.
