What caught my eyes immediately is the elaborate decoration, makes for a very fun dining experience. The food is great and fresh. Service is quick and efficient. They have insanely spicy broth options for those who are up for a challenge. Though my 1 complaint is that the spicy broth is too oily.
It was my first time coming here and the decoration inside the restaurant was really nice! However , me and my friends ordered the shrimp paste but it tasted very unfresh.. we had tried many hot pot places before and it should not taste like that. Overall the rest of the food was yummy, and we would come back!
Great quality, nice portions, and well decorated interior. They even provide a tote bin for your clothes to prevent it from smelling like spicy hot pot. One of the best hot pot restaurant in Chicago. Highly recommend.
Great ambience and setting in what is otherwise a very busy area. Has a good variety of meat options for the hot pot and is easy to order. The servers are polite and respectful and the place is clean. The taste per se could be slightly better though of the meat options. I rate it four star only because there are better hot pot options out there but again you would have a good experience here too.
