Best hot pot I’ve had in Australia by far! The staff were really friendly and very nice. I believe the manager or owner was there as well and she was very attentive, checked on the patrons and staff! They had a hot pot for one which was perfect, because I was a solo. It typically comes with meat selections, but I was able to customize it fully vegetarian. They had a great selection of sauces. They were playing some fun pop tunes as well. 10/10!!
highly recommend !! Ken provides us with friendly and excellent service. The hot pot at this place has a delicious flavor. My husband and I come here every week, as it has become our favorite restaurant.
Food was absolutely delicious and the staff was super helpful and friendly. They were really understanding as it was our first time trying hotpot and they explained the best way to cook the food. The staff was extremely understanding with my food allergies (peanuts) and assisting me with what I could and couldn’t eat. Overall I’m super impressed. $110 for me and my partner, 3 different meats, instant noodles, bacon, enoki mushrooms and 2 drinks each.
We came here on a whim after a movie and glad we did. We got the 2nd last table and the friendly server saw that we were struggling with the confusing huge menu so he helped us out with how to order. The food was all fresh and presented nicely, like going to a local farmers market lol. We ordered the mushroom medley, the lamb and beef, the variety of veggies, quail eggs, tofu, dumplings, 1 bowl of white rice and some noodles and it was more than enough food for 3 people. The broth had good flavor, we got two kinds, be careful with the spicy broth, because we ordered a number 2 and 2 and it was plenty spicy for us and we love spicy food. You choose your own sauces and condiments which was nice. A fun experience and better tasting than the one we had in Seattle a few years ago, which was the last hot pot place we went to.
Absolutely loved this place!! I've never had hot pot before and this was my first experience and yummmm loved everything. Loved the variety of choices, loved the service, loved how interactive the experience was, the price is decent but you can order a few things without going over board and still be able to enjoy the food. Had so much fun it was amazing. Would come back here again <3
Interesting experience, really enjoyed the food. As first experience would have liked an explanation on the process. The app was difficult to navigate. No wheel chair parking.
Hit China town last night and randomly picked In the Jin Hot Pot. BYO.
Neither of us had been to a dining experience like this so after a lot of questions to our server about how it all works, menu item descriptions (which they don’t have and is tricky when you’ve never had a hot pot before), and how to order.
They have an online ordering system via QR code at the table which doesn’t even have the complete menu item, hence the difficulty in knowing what to order.
Once we ordered and everything was brought out, that’s where the fun begins.
We had the four flavour hot pot, beef, chicken, prawns, pork, bok choy, corn, 2 types of noodles and seasonal vegetables.
The theatrics of cooking it yourself is good fun but after a while the novelty did wear off. I think if we knew what we were doing it would be a different story.
Regardless, the venue is gorgeous. The boots are intimate and spacious. The food was fresh and delicious - a lot of it too, and the staff were friendly and tolerant of our constant questions lol

I love the interior design, feels like gone into a Chinese traditional old alley. Food presentation was great, and flavour was also stimulates your saliva.
Only downside was no air con when we had our meal that day. A bit uncomfortable having hot pot in a hot day.
