The shrimp fried rice was delicious but the spicy chicken tasted weird to me.

The restaurant is simple and clean. We ordered a lot of dishes. They were all good. For me, the best dish was Suan Cai Yu . It was a resplendent dish full of delicious tender fish slices, delicately pickled mustard greens, and crunchy sprouts, all immersed in a most tangy savory soup. This dish stimulated our appetite. It was perfect to eat with rice.Both of us were very satisfied with the food and the reasonable prices, and we had to get takeout boxes because there was so much food. I‘ll return again.

I ordered this dish through Fantuan Delivery for those seeking a flavorful and satisfying dry pot experience. I chose the Signature Dry Pot, featuring potato, cauliflower, celery, and soybean sprouts. My protein of choice was Griddle-cooked lamb, and the flavors were fantastic.The combination of medium spiciness and mala (numb and spicy) brought a perfect balance to the dish. The spice level was just right, and the numbing sensation added an exciting twist. The large pot size was ideal for sharing, making it a great option for group dining.

What a gem of a place! While I don't know specifically what kind of Chinese food this is, what I do know is the food is delicious.Came right at opening with no one here, perfect, my favorite. The crazy part was they were busy cooking up to-go orders, a great sign. I was drawn in by their picture ads outside so we ordered all of em. Scallion pancake beef rolls, lemon pork pot stickers and juicy bao buns. Oh and we also had to try a sizzling item so we got the pork belly and a side order of rice.Everything was yummy the beef rolls had a soft but slightly crispy exterior with yummy beef, a little sweet sauce and some lettuce for extra texture. I hope this is not just a temporary special because I would order it again. The pot stickers were advertised as lemon but it came with sweet and sour so unsure if there is a translation error, still crisp outside, juicy inside. The bao buns were pillowy and chewy outside and savory inside. The base was crusted with sesame. My least favorite of the order but it's still tasty. The pork belly was sooo good. If you come here order this. It was so tender with just enough sauce and tons of garlic. It got soft as it braised and I was impressed at how not oily the food was. Great over a bowl of rice.It's clean inside and the booths are comfortable to sit at. Service was simple and had no issues closing the check. I'm a fan. Don't judge a book by its cover!

Summer 2022: I ordered takeout twice. The spicy one was okay, the garlic one was a bit greasy, and other dishes were also okay.Winter 2023: I came on a business trip and ordered takeout again. I was very disappointed. Nothing was delicious. Won't come again

The medium size portion good for two. I ordered beef rib dish. Overcooked and tough to eat. Second time at this spot. Won't be back.

I ate at this restaurant last week and found the food is amazing. The ingredients are fresh, and the flavor is very authentic. Plus, the facility inside looks very new and pleasing to the eyes. I would definitely go there again when I am in San Francisco.

Absolutely my GO TO spot if I crave for spicy dry pot. I’m a huge lover for hot pot so knowing there’s a place so close to my home but dry pot, I was so happy.I probably ordered at sizzling pot over 10+ times and will continue to order here. I never got a chance to dine in since it’s not in the best area + finding parking is always very hot.The medium size pot will be enough for 3 people and the large pot will be enough for 4 people. Short rib for main protein is always the way to go for me.The appetites are also very yummy! Everything is just SO GOOD here.

Fantastic dryish hot pot at SPK. We got the vegetarian one with various appendiments and especially loved the ramen noodles in there. The tofu, cauliflower, broccoli all went really well in there. We also tried the mapo tofu which packed spice and went well with the rice. Perhaps on the greasier saltier side but you don't eat hot pot every day.

The food was absolutely delicious! I wish I had a restaurant like Sizzling Pot King here in Fort Lauderdale. It was so amazing that in some ways no other place will ever be as good. The pork belly was perfect. What a wonderful find! The fried rice was the best I have ever had. It was not oily or salty but perfect
