I have to say, the food we had at the BBQ was absolutely delicious. Every dish had a unique and mouth-watering flavour that left me wanting more. The BBQ, in particular, was cooked to perfection with a crispy exterior and tender meat that just melted in my mouth. Overall, it was an amazing culinary experience that I won't forget anytime soon.

Can’t complain from the 2 times I’ve been here! Great taste, great service, nice decor - my favourite hot pot place in London so far! I like that they provide all the right sauces for us to make the dipping sauce (not all do) and I came on a 50% off day which was even better! Only negatives are they don’t provide a baby chair or rather they do not advise to if you’re having hot pot, and they don’t accept AMEX.

I've been here 4 times and each better than the previous time though the 4th time was great there were some inconveniences but to begin when walking in, it feels like a normal hotpot place and it pretty much is, it's just that there's a lot of halal options considering it's in an area filled with a lot people of islamic faith. The first thing I wanted was a tomato broth alongside a spicy broth. The spicy broth isn't halal despite the menu saying it is halal. I've been here 4 times since Ramadan and I've always gotten it. For me this is very disappointing because a lot of us love spicy food and you could argue probably more than the local people. So I hope they either fix the menu or create an actual spicy halal broth which I'd prefer if they create a spicy halal broth. As for the food, the beef, the lamb were all amazing and when you mix garlic, sesame oil and coriander it's amazing and if your put a little bit of this in a bowl full of tomato broth, it's so delicious.
I went during a day there was a massive discount of 50% and I didn't know there was a catch that you'd have to a write a review to get the discount which I think is very disingenuous. But I did enjoy it but just being told to do that to get a discount is outrageous. I wrote a previous review in the restaurant but I now wrote a note informed review of my experience in the hotpot place.
I would recommend this place for spicy food lovers only. Overall my experience here would be an 8/10 which is great

Very good and attentive service! Delicious broth, we had the tomato and special spicy broths and both were nice. I like how the tomato broth had real tomato pieces inside. The food was served very quickly. Our standouts were the mushroom platter, fresh tofu and pork wontons. For dipping sauce you get free green onions, soy sauce, coriander, oyster sauce and vinegar alongside some paid options of sesame oil and paste, chilli and garlic. I thought this was pretty reasonable. The decor and layout is very attractive, with cool neon light signs and the booths are clean and comfortable. Our total was £50 for two people including service charge (with a limited anniversary offer of 50% off dishes, without this offer the total would’ve been around £75). We were very full and had some leftover food, so you can definitely go at a cheaper price per person, especially if you are a larger party. Will be returning!

What a wonderful experience. We went there for Iftar and the food was absolutely amazing. The staff are extremely helpful. As it was our first time they explained the process really well and made sure we were ok through out our meal. Part of the menu is halal. Definitely recommend you try.

Great hotpot, one of my favourites in London. Food was excellent and service was great. The beef tallow base was super spicy — definitely good if you like spicy based! Quality of meat was great — and large portions!

Loved it! Went on the 1st day of the new year of the dragon, we were kindly fitted in despite a fully booked restaurant. Great fresh food, great service and excellent atmosphere. A lot of fun!

We were very lucky to have booked a hotel right next to this lovely place. It was a cold night and we were craving a soup, so we decided to walk in and luckily we found a table. The food is super tasty and dinner is quite an experience as you add the ingredients yourself in the boiling broth, so the cooking is according to your liking. It's really fun, i totally recommend Hotto Potto!

Great experience!
Delicious fresh food with lots of selections to choose ( vegetables, meat, fish, seafood, specials and more). The main bar menu is quite accessible, we had a bottle of champagne who was really tasty and crispy.
We ordered a mix of mushrooms, seafood, both tofu and meats who arrived in timing, fresh and well presented.
Attentive service, the Manager and few servers was around all time asking if we need any help, great service.
Guys, you need to try this experience, is great.

The restaurant is near Aldgate East station. We came here on a Thursday for lunch. You can easily book online. It was not full so walk in is welcome too.
There is 20% off for lunch as long as you pay and leave before 4pm.
The shopfront looks nice and bright. The decoration is new. The seating is comfortable. It is spacious between seats. There are some private rooms for dining too.
The food is quite fresh, and soup base is nice. It is up to standard but not woah. There are many rare ingredients for Chinese like tripe and Chinese vegetable.
The service is attentive. I definitely recommend the spam meat. Come for lunch and it’s cheaper.

LISTEN!!!!!! I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!! Please bear in mind it was our first time. And they were so lovely and explained everything to us, Step by step even helped us put the food in the broth and told us how long we had to keep it in there. We ordered quite a lot because we wanted to try a bit of everything, and we did not regret it! The broth was so tasty and flavourful that everything we put in tasted amazing.

Foods are super delicious.. the best plain soup base ever. And the grill skewers are very tasty. Serving is super quick. The only thing I don’t like about it is toilet is dirty. Overall price is reasonable..super tasty .. will go back

This hotpot offers delicious and flavorful dishes with fresh and diverse ingredients, creating a delightful experience for the taste buds. In addition to the scrumptious hotpot, the service is attentive with warm and detailed assistance from the staff. The clean and tidy ambiance inside the restaurant establishes a comfortable dining atmosphere, enhancing the overall enjoyment of the dining experience. Definitely a place worth revisiting.

Great hot pot experience. Plenty to choose from, would recommend the spicy beef. Staff could be a bit more attentive but no real complaints.

The location is bustling, the waiters are courteous, and there are halal options available. There's hardly much parking. The meal appears to be more traditional in that you cook the stew using requested ingredients such as prawns, lamb, squid, and bamboo shoots. Although it was a positive experience, I doubt I'll go back.

First time having hot pot.
We loved it!!
The place had a fantastic atmosphere and the staff was super friendly and efficient. They will advise and help.
The food was so tasty and the value for money and drinks was actually good.
Highly recommend!! We will be back for sure. There are vegetarian options.
(Book in advance as it gets very busy)

First time we had hot pot and it was amazing! The waiter explained everything and helped us to order everything we needed. The food is really good and it's a fun way to eat. Basically you cook everything in two kinds of broth. It's very popular so I would recommend to reserve a table.

Had the halal extra spicy broth and the mushroom broth which were both very flavorful (although the Sichuan pepper caught me and my husband out a few times and really numbed our mouths, it wasn't pleasant!). We ordered the mushroom platter, premium fatty beef, chefs lamb and beef meatballs and it was a great experience. We went at lunch and got 20% off our meal too, so it came to a very reasonable price for such a tasty meal.
