Located at a very tired looking Hong Kong Plaza. Plenty of parking in a sketchy looking lot. The quality of the beef and lamb (didn’t try the pork) was decent especially for an all you can eat place. Veggies and other included ingredients were plentiful and fresh, except for the tonghao 茼蒿菜(it was also fresh but took a long time before it was refilled). The fried chicken wings were pretty good as appetizers while waiting for your pot to boil. The seatings were tight and worn. It’s a good choice if you are hungry as the per person price is very reasonable, which is the top reason for its faithfuls to return on a regular basis.
My go to for Hot Pot spot, especially during lunch time. It’s a plus that they open until late. The quality and flavors do not disappoint, and I feel like you get the most bang for your buck with all the choices.
I usually get the spicy (which is quite spicy) and the original broth. I have tried the mushroom, but I actually prefer the regular broth here better. I love that they have a wide selection of veggies, seafood, and dipping sauces. The only thing is I wish there was more space around the refrigerator area as it can get tight trying to get your toppings, but for the price, I can get over it.

I want to go there every day if I could. There are ample parking places, and the place is packed on weekends.
Their lunch menu A is only $16.99, which is insanely low today with all the inflation, I honestly don't know how they can make money.
You have to order the soup base and meat from the servers, rest are all self-serving. There is a snack bar with sesame balls, fries and spring rolls for the kids, and there are a line of freezers with literally everything, from veggies to seafood to tripe.
Food is fresh given they move through everything pretty fast, for the price there is really nothing to complain.

Not sure how this place can get over four stars in reviews. $32.99 is the most expensive premium plan we chose and expected to get better meat quality. However, all four of us only had 6 plates of meat as the 2nd round of the meat was definitely not fresh and not as fresh as the first round, even looked and tasted totally different. If this is the way owner does the business by serving only one round of quality meat of the premium combo, I would suggest you all just the basic combo because it won't be any difference. I believe there are better choices in the area and we will not come back.
Hella good quality for the price. Really good options, lots of variety of sides, sushi is actually super good too!! Definitely my go to hot pot place.
All the meats were from combo A, their cheapest one but still really good. I got the sliced beef and lamb.

The main saving point of this place is the price. Nowadays you can't find an AYCE hot pot place for $23 per person. The meat selection is pretty limited per tier (that's how they get you) but they don't charge extra for the sauce/snack bar.
They provide two types of drinks, lemonade and passion fruit tea. The lemonade that night was really off, so do avoid it. The passion fruit tea is alright, reminds me of the ones you can buy at the Asian Grocery Markets.
The meat looked pretty good and not too fatty. Even the lowest tier option provides decent cuts of meat so overall this place is an alright place to come eat.
For people who only want a discount on their bill, giving them a 5* on yelp or Google reviews provides a 20% discount. So be wary of the short 5* reviews.

Very great place! All you can eat hotpot with a choice of up to two free soup flavors. Great quality meat and be dry reasonable prices!
Amazing food and great selection in the fridge for self serve. Their spring rolls and side dishes are great. Only complaint was that it was a little slow with the meat but it was a full house so it's understandable. Overall Amazing and great price would go again.
