This is becoming a fave for me and my bf. The options are great, and though there seems to be a 90-minute limit, we never (ever) come close. Would recommend!

Went to celebrate a double birthday party as a group 6 and found it totally worth the 90mins all you can eat. A bit pricey in general as a meal but totally worth it for the occasional and quality and speed. Definitely will be coming

We go to Boiling Hot Pot atleast 1x/month. It’s our go to spot for almost every occasion whether happy or sad. ? We went here for my wife’s graduation and for when I had a bad day and needed a venting session.We almost always get mango soju. My mother-in-law and I always drink unfiltered Sake when we all got together. It’s like a family tradition now.We usually pick out 4 favorite soup bases (Tom Yum, Red Pepper, Green Pepper, and Tomato). We LOVE their sauce station! It’s so customizable but my favorite is their first recommendation. My wife loves their green sauce and their mushroom sauce with spicy chili garlic.We always order a bunch of vegetables and wagyu beef. We always leave super stuffed and so satisfied. Unfortunately the only downside is the time limit of 90 mins which leaves you feeling rushed. I will say that the restaurant really only enforces the time limit when there is a large wait. Otherwise they are very nice and flexible.Would definitely recommend for any occasion. We’re probably going to go back soon.

They require umbrellas to be stashed in a huge box-like bin that is not intended for umbrellas. This results in umbrellas getting ripped, which is not a great feeling when you exit into the rain at the end of one's meal.

Boiling Hot Pot is the BEST in San Francisco, hands down! Our friends introduced it to us and we have loved going there ever since. The variety of broth flavors, and then the huge assortment of meats, tofu, veggies, etc they have is awesome! Also, they have all you can drink draft beer + sake!! It's a fun atmosphere, the restaurant + bathrooms are clean, the staff are very friendly and service is unspeakably quick. It's literally the best - such a fun night out to share with your friends and if you have any guests in town, take them there. It does not disappoint!

My favorite hot pot place in the city. Good variety of meat and seafood available, I love the build your own sauce bar, and the option to order food from the iPad at the table. Great place for families/groups to share a meal together.

Went here last night and wow, their green chili soup was amazing. The AYCE hot pot and drinks options are now a rare find. The service, these people need an award or to teach a workshop, I swear we would order and it would arrive at our table not 30 seconds later! Highly recommend, we will be returning.

Lived in China for 6 months and developed an absolute craving for hot pot. This place is the most like what I ate when I was there. Its so good. We get it everytime we drive through the city, yum yum
third visit: good for the price but def not a hidilao type of place quality-wise, this place makes me sentimental for some reason

Great hot pot value for buffet style!!! Food was good, servers were always attentive to when we needed more water or needed plate clearings. Food came out almost just as soon as we put the orders in. Place wasn't stuffy or strongly smelling like some other hot pot places can be, which was a nice plus. Only caveat is that there did seem to be little fruit flies flying around the sauce cart every so often, although everything else felt clean that I wasn't incredibly worried about that.

Boiling Hotpot is a haven for hotpot enthusiasts, offering a fantastic dining experience with a variety of broths and impressive meat quality, all within a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. I recently had the pleasure of dining here and sampled several broths along with their meat and vegetable offerings.Broths: 4/5The choice of broths at Boiling Hotpot is extensive, and each one brings a unique flavor to the table. The pork bone broth was rich and hearty, offering a comforting base for the meal. The tomato broth provided a tangy twist, adding a refreshing contrast to the savory options. The miso broth, with its depth of flavor, was a personal favorite, and the spicy soup packed a flavorful punch. Overall, a solid range of broths to cater to different preferences.Meats: 5/5The star of the show here is undoubtedly the quality of meat. The House Special Slice Lamb Shoulder was a melt-in-your-mouth delight, bursting with flavor. The House Special Beef was tender and delicious, and the Kobe Beef truly lived up to its reputation. The Premium Pork Belly was a savory treat.Vegetables: 4/5While the focus here is clearly on the meats, the vegetable offerings provided a welcome contrast to the richness of the broths and meats. They were fresh and added a healthy element to the meal, making sure there's something for everyone.Atmosphere: 5/5The restaurant provides a cozy and spacious setting, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. The warm lighting and pleasant decor contribute to a welcoming ambiance that enhances the overall dining experience.Service: 5/5The attentive service at Boiling Hotpot deserves special mention. Our waitress was exceptionally attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. She was quick to refill our broths, explain the menu, and accommodate our requests, making the evening even more pleasant.Overall:Boiling Hotpot offers a fantastic dining experience with its diverse range of broths, outstanding meat quality, fresh vegetables, attentive service, and a comfortable atmosphere. Whether you're a fan of traditional flavors or seeking something unique, Boiling Hotpot has you covered for a delightful and comfortable meal.
