Yonny Mini Hotpot & Suancai Fish

This is a great concept; we love this place! We had a wonderful time here with our friend, and it was such a fun and tasty experience. There were several things I loved that set this place apart from other hot pot restaurants: 1) It's like a froyo shop for hot pot where each person can get exactly what they what from hundreds of choices of fresh ingredients. This is so much more fun than having to order plates of meats or veggies by table. It's also a great way to try new things without having to commit to too much of it. 2) By having a wall of countless fresh options to add to your personal bowl, those less familiar with the cuisine (like me) can decide if they want to try it by looking at it instead of reading through lists and wondering what certain things mean. 3) Everyone can have

Yonny Mini Hotpot & Suancai Fish was such a fun, “build-it-your-way” hotpot experience and I’m already planning my next trip back. The first thing that stood out was the ingredient bar — it’s huge, super organized, and clearly labeled (English + Chinese). There were tons of options from fresh veggies and mushrooms (enoki, oyster mushrooms, leafy greens) to tofu varieties, noodles, fish balls, and a solid mix of meats/seafood. I also appreciated that the pricing felt straightforward: they advertise the same price for meat & vegetables $14.95/lb, so you can mix and match without feeling like you’re getting upcharged for adding protein. Once we got seated, the broth was the star. The suancai-style soup had that addictive balance of tangy and savory with a gentle heat that builds as you keep

Here is my review after eating at this restaurant a few times. The employees are always attentive, accommodating, and happy. The food was fresh and delicious. Customers have two options. They can either order dishes from the menu or pick up a bowl and tong to choose food then go to the back counter to weight their food and pick the soup to go with the food. There is also a small area where customers can get regular rice, five grains rice, pickled cucumbers, fresh fruits, and Asian soupy dessert. Will definitely visit this restaurant over and over again.

Inviting casual atmosphere with wide menu variety of broths (or you can build your own hotpot at the ingredients bar). If you want a low/mild spice suancai hotpot, I recommend the Traditional Laotan Suancai Fish + add the $2 Snakehead Fish bc it was very soft and yummy!! 😋 The a la carte Grilled Giant Squid Skewer was really good too! 🦑 I came here with family and really recommend it if you want Chinese suancai hotpot :D

I love suan cai yu and I wanted to try this place for a long time. Food and flavor is really good and I will definitely come back! I got the traditional bowl and it was definitely worth the $20. I came with my parents and flavor was a bit strong for their Taiwanese taste buds, so our server brought out plain broth to help us dilute the spiciness and oiliness. Zoe was very kind and friendly and knowledgeable. She is a great server!
