Hot Pot
Portions and quality were not what I expected for the price. When you ask for additional broth when the pot gets low, they just have kettles of hot water.

It is clear that this place started out well, there are nice tables with a central induction cooktop and four individual cooktops; but then cheapened out. The napkins and chopsticks are low grade. The napkins are see through and not much good for picking up liquids.
The server was often not there physically, and when the melamine cup used for hot tea cracked and spilled, just stared at the increasing puddle for a solid ten seconds before leaving to bring back paper towels.
The food was so-so. The broths (had mushroom and spicy) were flavorless. Both the broths and my taro tea tasted like they were made from powder. The meats were good but there isn't much when they cook a bit. Doubt that I will be back, but do want to try again at a more established restaurant.

This was our first time trying a hot pot so I don't know how it compares. We were seated quickly, the way you order was explained well, and the food came out very quickly. The bill was $45 for a two-broth hot pot, marbled beef slices, broccoli, baby bamboo, daikon, mushrooms, fresh noodles, chili flakes, garlic oil, a mango smoothie, and custard buns. The spicy broth was moderately spicy and tasted slightly like anise seed among other spices (I'm not a fan of black licorice tasting spices but I understand it's common in Asian foods). The mushroom broth hardly had any flavor at all. We were passing the garlic oil back and forth to make it a little less bland. The mango smoothie was alright and the custard buns were a fun texture and smelled amazing but tasted kind of bland. At the end of the day we left still moderately hungry. It was a fun experience and the service was great but the food was pretty bland and we left hungry.

Hot Pot
Horrible dining experience. Server seemed lost and confused about everything. Asked about drinks - she had no idea. Strangely, there was a sign right in front of her, facing her or else my group and I would've seen it, with the drink menu. Asked for tea. She brought out a cup with a crack and when the small bit of tea I poured into the cup poured out onto the table, she just stood there as our table flooded. Had to ask my dining companions for napkins just to keep the liquid from spilling off the table on me. Also, note that the napkins are the cheapest on the market - transparently thin, small, and you only get one, unless you ask repeatedly, then you might get two. After the cup-flood crisis was dealt with (she finally brought paper towels), we waited seemingly forever for her to take our order sheet (too busy gabbing with coworkers and some guys that wandered through). Food was prompt, but it doesn't take much when the broths are just boiling water. There was no detectable flavor difference between the "hot and spicy" and "mushroom" broths. Meat and veggies to add were ok, but the cabbage was wilted to the point of being limp and sticky. No small bowls were ever brought out, so we never got to drink any broth as literally every other table around us was able to do. Ultimately, the best part of this experience was visiting with friends and the worst was the restaurant (if I hadn't been meeting friends, then I would have to say the best part of the restaurant was leaving - this place is massively dysfunctional). I don't eat a lot generally but ended up eating again after leaving here just to get a proper lunch. Avoid.
After waiting so long for them to open, the wait was so worth it. Having a lightly lit dinner with my partner for our date night, made it seem more comfortable and romantic if we were to go anywhere else. The waiting staff is professional and never made us feel unsatisfied with our needs but not continuously interrupting. It was a great experience. I am suggesting it to everyone and planning on coming often for date night.
