Review Lavender Hot Pot - Newark

Kim L Ground
I preface this review by stating that I didn't end up eating there and am obviously not familiar with the hot pot concept. Went there to eat, but could not understand the server (heavy accent - my bad ears, not her fault). When I finally realized that you have to cook your own food here that was a deal killer for me late at night after a 1000 mile drive. Food is probably ok (if YOU are a good cook), and there were several interesting things on the menu, but I find the whole concept of buffet questionable during the pandemic. Buffet is banned in most nearby states at this time. They do offer sit down dining as of 1/31/21

COVID WARNING: I’ve been a fan of this buffet place even before covid hit. I’m giving 3 stars because of the food, ambiance, and the meat that accommodate Muslim people. HOWEVER, the last time I went there for the buffet(4 months ago), the mask restriction was so loose that some of the customers decided not to wear masks walking around the restaurant and while picking up the selections. Some of them were coughing too so we decided to leave earlier that we planned to. None of the waiters/waitresses warned them too!! Not just that, the 6feet distancing between tables wasn’t implemented like they said. We were placed near to the other occupied table. I suggest for them to have plexiglass in between tables so it looks more safer. Imagine this happen on a daily basis ..... I was really worried about the children and olds coming in and unfortunately get to eat with people who couldnt care less about this virus. If the restaurant starts to implement a tighter restrictions, then I’ll come back. If not, you’re gonna lose a lot way more customers.

It's an all you can eat Asian hot pot place. Variety of choices for soups with various flavors from many Asian countries and choice of sauces; with varying degree of spices. All types and meats and seafood are available. They also have a buffer section of desserts, including red bean paste and other similar items. And the price is very good.

Food wasn’t that good for AYCE. Most of the meat tasted like it was freezer burned and the broth was bland. Seafood was not fresh. Had to add satay, chili sauce, etc. to give it flavor.

Second time ordering fried chicken from this place. The meat is undercooked obviously. Called the restaurant and the guy answered the phone insisted the chicken leg is edible. Please be careful if you order from this place.

Good place for a buffet lunch! Healthy alternative to standard Asian buffers! It is halal, therefore, the food is good certain religious requirements. You get a pot of soup-base and cook the food you choose yourself in the pot. Food looks fresh and yummy! Place was busy!

The food is just okay. Good price for lunch buffet including weekdays and weekends. You have your own small pot. It seems only offering one beef and one lamb for lunch. Good service for our table.
