★★★★☆ 4.0 Kaori Rivera · Jan 2026

Arrived around 12pm, had seating with 6 people instantly (no reservation), food came relatively quickly (less than 13 mins). Only about 3 other tables were occupied at the time, so lots of open seating. All of the food is savory and tasteful, the broth taste can vary from herbal to spicy, and a nice array of appetizers. They seem to have limited edition foods (popcorn chicken), and a point system to order food if you come more frequently. I got the Sizzling Wagyu plate, and onion scallions. All 6 of us enjoyed our plate. You do need to ask for more napkins. The ordering system is online, and all under one table. There isn’t much need for human interaction.

The food was perfect for a cold evening. Service was slow when it came to our request for tea, and when I asked for help with putting the food into the takeout containers, they didn't help. For a place that charges over $20 per "tasty pot", it was a bit disappointing. At least the food tasted good.

★★★★★ 5.0 Elaine Kuo · May 2025

Came during the soft opening and had a overall very good experience. I ordered a Taiwanese Supreme Spicy Hot Soup (mild) with vermicelli, the flavor is really good and authentic; portion size was large. My friend ordered Beef Hot Soup with rice, and she liked it as well. The sweet ice green tea is very refreshing. I do wish there's a less sugar or no sugar option though. Overall, highly recommended if you want some delicious and fulfilling food that is affordable in an open and inviting atmosphere restaurant.

This Taiwanese hot pot is soooo delicious. I was surprised we can find Taiwanese hot pot in Palo Alto already so I went and tried immediately, it turned out a great satisfaction!

★★★★★ 5.0 Nickolas E · Jul 2025

The beef hot soup here is absolutely delicious, rich, savory broth packed with fresh ingredients and just the right amount of spice. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the portion was generous. The restaurant was spotless, with a welcoming atmosphere. Huge shoutout to the waitresses, super friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving comforting Taiwanese hot pot!
