Finally got a chance to try GoGo Chicken Pot and let me start by saying it was a very underwhelming and disappointing experience. To start off, the restaurant is an all you can eat restaurant where you start off with either the original chicken pot or the cheese pot followed by hot pot with chicken broth. As someone that loves eating chicken, all this place serves is chicken and even I was sick of it at the end. I made reservations for Sunday at 6:30pm and it was already busy.
Food 2/5
As I mentioned the food is generally all you can eat. You start off with the chicken pot where the food is already 80% cooked and finish it off on the heat. Pitchers of chicken broth are provided to thin out the sauce and that you don't burn the pot. Our party of four ordered two each of the original and the cheese pots and were quite disappointed by the taste. Original pot comes with skin on bone-in chicken in a soy sauce based with bits of chillies and green onions. The cheese on the other hand had an option of three types of cheese to choose (brie, provolone and blue) but the server first comes with a big bowl of questionable "cheese sauce" along with two sad slices of the chosen cheese. Our provolone was drowned out by whatever is in that bowl of processed cheese and was quite bland. The chicken in this bowl is a deep fried and comes with instant noodles. The cheese pot was quite disappointing and tasted grainy after a bit of cooking. At least the chicken was tender which made up for the lack of flavour. After the pot they add more broth for the hot pot where you can order sides of vegetables, fish balls, etc. The pots also come with a side of their chicken soup and/or steamed rice. Both were okay, soup was bland and the steamed rice was like the ones you get at dim sum.
Service 1.5/5
Wow service was almost non-existent. I'm not sure if the place is usually this packed but they only had a total of 5 servers for the entire restaurant. They barely came around to clear up the dishes which made eating uncomfortable when there was no room on the table. We had originally ordered the deluxe hot pot ($4.99 for other meats such as beef, pork, shrimp) but we were almost full after our first chicken pot. We spent a solid 10-15 minutes trying to wave down a server to void it but they never look around. When we finally managed to wave someone down he went to the computer to void it and comes back with our deluxe order. The meat was already melted and was clearly sitting out waiting for someone to take it out.
All in all I have no plans on coming back. It was an okay experience but neither the service or food was remotely good enough. The restaurant opened recently and obviously has kinks to work out. If you were to try this place I'd recommend coming in a few months time.
