The host sat us at a table with menus and a tablet but didn't explain how their system works. We waited several minutes for someone to come. Finally the host came back and I told him it was our first time so then he got some instructions for us. Soon after our server arrived and rushed through how to order on the tablet. I would expect the host to have done all of that when we were seated. They really need to improve their customer service. The food was good. The all you can eat option is the best deal if each person eats more than 2 orders of food. We ordered al a cart which was a little spending. I should have eaten the broth after our food was cooked.

Portland’s OG AYCE hotpot place. I love their side dishes especially fried pork (so good). They have variety to choose from. Meat and veges are fresh. I wish they have more meatball selection to choose from. The only downside is the soup is not spicy. As someone who likes to eat spicy, Happy Lamb is not my favorite but my family love going there. They gradually increase the price over time which is understandable with the inflation. Overall, I still think this is a good place. Note that, the charged additional for sauce bar. We also see soup fees or something in our bill.

We tried 6 broths: Tomato, Golden Cabbage Marrow, House Original Marrow, House Spicy Marrow, Curry Marrow, and Mushroom. Most of them were tasty, except for the Golden Cabbage and Curry. The meats looked and tasted fresh. You can’t go wrong with their lamb, especially since it’s in their name. The sauce bar costs extra, which I found odd. For the price point, I expected more interaction from the staff. Someone in our group got really sick after eating here, and others reported minor stomach issues. Because of that, I will not be returning.

Had an absolutely fantastic experience at this hotpot restaurant! The broth was rich, flavorful, and packed with the perfect balance of spices — you could taste the depth from the fresh herbs, chilies, and aromatics simmering away. The dipping sauce selection was excellent, allowing us to customize every bite to our liking. The side dishes, especially the stir-fried rice with eggs, peas, and carrots, were light yet flavorful, complementing the hotpot perfectly. Service was attentive and friendly, with staff checking in just enough to make sure everything was going smoothly without being intrusive. The ingredients were fresh, the portions generous, and the overall atmosphere warm and inviting. If you love authentic, well-prepared hotpot with quality ingredients and great service, this pla
