Good spice levels, and adjustable to the desired level. The service was fast, ensuring I didn't have to wait long. If all you can eat hotpots are not your thing, this fills that void in the Philly chinatown scene
Definitely worth trying this place if you love noodles. Their soup base are not bad, pretty good. You choose your ingredients to be added into your bowl. They have choices of soup noodle or dry (no soup). Different level of spiciness. 5 different types of noodle to choose from. I definitely would want to go back and try the dry noodle next time.
Restaurant is very spacious and clean. They do offer other a la carte in their menu. They also have drinks like smoothies.
Came at a busy hour so there was a bit long of a wait before we got our food. Other than that, the spicy flavor did taste authentic and the spiciness did meet my expectations. Recommend that if you can't eat that much spicy, don't go above medium.
One of the best deals in Chinatown, especially if you're dining in! The portions are huge and very filling. Both the dry pot and Mala soups are delicious. I'd recommend little spicy unless you have a very high spice tolerance.
Of note, I had takeout once and it was quite disappointing (the food doesn't travel or keep very well). Also look out for the (slightly unnecessary) singing robot that helps bring out the food!
Excellent food. We went for top spicy and it was super spicy haha.
The tea will definitely help calm down the spice.
Very clean space and good service.
I would definitely come back.
I like coming here for the mala dry pot. Portions are big and you definitely feel like you got your money's worth.. haha besides that the flavor is good but not authentic. Overall good and will be back
I had the build-your-own noodle soup with mei fun, shrimp, and vegetables. The food was tasty, if nothing particularly special, but very affordable, making it a quite reasonable value. Service was efficient and the Hello Kitty serving robot was a quaint touch. Lovely decor too. Subtract a star if you expect fine dining. This is a cheap place, but great for what it is.
My only complaints are that there were only two shrimp, though they were very big, and the spiciness. I ordered medium spicy, and I’m glad I didn’t order anything hotter or I would have ended up like the bad guys at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Incredible, authentic feel. This was an experience like no other- fast, fun service and hot food completely worth the price paid for it. Definitely a place I'd come back and try again.
The best Hot Pot or Dry Pot restaurants I've ever been too. Amazing selection. Great food. There's an adorable robot that delivers your food to your table with a catchy song.
The broth here is so flavorful. It’s not overwhelming, but perfectly creamy and spicy. I came here twice, tried medium spice the first time then the spicy for my most recent visit. I’m not high tolerant but can handle my spice. The spicy level was honestly not even that spicy. It was just the right amount for me. It was a rainy and chilly autumn night and it hit the spot. Bowl is pretty large so you can definitely share it with a friend. Just get double noodles & double meat. Not a lot of tourists come here so it feels like a hidden gem. I’m surprised myself that I’ve never been here growing up near philadelphia. Will definitely be coming back with more people.
