Sauce always so good. So good on a cold rainy day. Service was quick and attentive.
I always order the beef medium spicy and it's the perfect meal everytime. Their table side sauce options are the best and complimentary with each dine-in meal. Boiling point is simply second to none!
Came on a weekday evening and there was no wait- we were seated immediately. While the portions were generous, the quality of the meat could've been improved (it was a little dry). The hot pot could've also been better prepared before being served, as the meat was all clumped up in the pot and not mixed in properly into the soup. We would always have to physically separate the pieces of meat every time we got a pot at boiling point. Otherwise, the flavor of the pots was decent and satisfied a late night hot pot craving. Each pot comes with a complimentary rice or vermicelli as well. Staff were very attentive and added soup to our pots in a timely manner. Ambiance is nice as a good spot for a casual hangout with friends and family.
I've been coming here with my friends since I was in middle school, and most recent visit was after I graduated college! The food here is consistently good and delicious, never had a meal I didn't enjoy. I think if you've never been here before, the spice level is something that takes a higher tolerance. Yum!
First time trying. It was good. The medium spicy matched my regular spicy level. The portion was good. Had it with a side of rice. Got the winter melon tea. Sadly they did not ask the sweetness level and got a really sweet tea. The server was kind enough to remake it with half the tea, extra water and ice. Still sweet but tolerable. Overall service was decent, we came at opening and the three servers helped each other but, they did forget to serve rice at the same time as soup. They forgot our tea (needed to be reminded until middle of the meal). Then the extra meatballs I ordered were forgotten so, again had to remind them. Thankfully the servers were quick to remedy our requests. We had been lucky to get in there early, it was loud and full of conversation. Nice vibe and fast paced.
Long wait on weekends rush hour. Food comes quick and is perfect for a cold or rainy day Also got boba. Definitely recommend if you're ok with long waits at times!
Comfort food at its best! ::Drinks:: I went with the Honey Green Tea, which paired nicely with the meal. ::Food:: I always opt for the All Beef, non-spicy. I tried the spicy version once, and it was too hot for me. I also add fried tofu skin. My go-to sauce is the Soy Garlic. ::Customer Service:: Friendly staff. ::"Meh" Moment:: They charge 45 cents if you ask for a small container to take some sauce home. ::M's Notes:: - Indoor dining only - Street parking available
I've always go to the San Gabriel location and I absolutely miss the old SG location so much. I'm not too fond of the new SG location. It's pretty small and the floor is always sticky there. I decided to visit another location in Arcadia. I couldn't find the place at first because it wasn't obvious to me. I found street parking and walked over. This location is bigger than the one in SG. Surprisingly they are not busy on a weekday during dinner time. I called ahead to ask for the waiting time for a table of two, which is none. Yay for me! My mom and I ordered #1 house special, mild spicy, with lychee green tea and amber tea. I can always count on their drinks, all drinks are good at BP. Sometimes I stopped by just for drinks only for to go. Staffs are attentive and friendly. Always checking up on us and refilling the soup base. I'll definitely come to this location going forward!
