| - Came by for lunch buffet on a Sunday (12:30pm).
There wasn't a line up which is nice for a Sunday, I expected it to be a bit busier, but no complaints. For those who don't know, hot pot is where you get a pot over a burner and you cook your food yourself.
Atmosphere/decor, the restaurant is nicely decorated. Note that because it is hot pot, it will be a bit noisy and depending on where you sit, you may have steam in your face. Depending on the table you get, you either share a pot or you get individual pots for yourself (which is nice).
Service, typical Chinese service. You will need to flag down a server if you need anything, don't expect them to be attentive, but since I know what to expect, it is normal. You do need to get your own food other than the lamb/beef (you need to ask the server for more), so they aren't really required (aside from the initial order and to fill your pot with more soup base).
Food, typical hot pot food and selection. You go up with a plate and fill it with what you like to cook and repeat until you are full. There are a lot of choices although I feel their desserts are lacking for lunch (only two). You do get unlimited drinks (fill yourself).
Cost, it is a bit more expensive on the weekends, but seems inline with other hot pot places. I believe it was around $23 after tax/tip for unlimited beef/lamb (there is an option where you only get one plate of each, I believe for $4 less), but the rest is all you can eat (there are lots of veggies, fish/beef/shrimp/lamb balls, dumplings, noodles, chicken/pork, among other things).
I have no issues with the restaurant. Do note that the servers are all Chinese, so English may be minimal but we had no issues in general.
