We got the mushroom and tomato soup base, which were great- I liked the former better but my husband like the latter, so it worked out well. We were stuffed with the all you can eat- come super hungry. Super kind staff.

It was a bit of a bait and switch when the all you can eat price does not include the soup base?!! It's hot pot. If you're going to have AYCE hotpot why would the soup base to actually do the hot pot not be included!!?? Anyways selection is also limited and not really worth the price tag.

I have been on the hunt for a new hotpot place after frequenting my last place in bayside for almost ten years. I was so happy to find JOYPOT super close to my new home in Astoria. Not only is the quality of their meat and veggies 10/10, but their mushroom broth and spicy broth are phenomenal. My boyfriend LOVES the mushroom base and it’s incomparable to anywhere else we’ve even been.My only qualm with AYCE places is that they don’t usually let you take your food home, and that is what I was told when I first called JOYPOT. However, on today’s visit, I asked if they can charge me for whatever we left behind and allow us pack our leftovers, and they gladly let us at a small fee. THANK YOU, Joypot!!! You are my new go-to and I’m so glad I found you ?? the fact that you will allow me to pay an extra fee and take my food home brings me so much joy ☺️
The service was super attentive, and the less spicy wasn’t too spicy but just right. Loved the different sauces as

This HotPot is off the hook! You have to give it a try! The food was delicious. Also good service very, very kind. Then the food was delicious exactly like the pictures but the spicy side is too spicy for some people like me. My son love it here!! Water amazing so refreshing. He love the eggs!! But the best part is the meat sooo delicious the noodles especially the glass were my favorite part!!!!!

what a great hotpot spot! so delicious and yummy. really good deal. it's about $50/55 per person. if you go during lunch time, it'll be cheaper but it's a good ayce place. meat is good quality but not a lot of options. but it is worth if you're into beef and lamb. i would recommend !

Love this place! Fresh ingredients, clean, great service. The only thing is that you'll have to pay for the broth on top of the AYCE price.
The selections of meat and vegetables are outstanding! They charge for the soups on top of all you can eat price, so the total per person comes to $50-60. If you love hotpot and love eating a lot, I highly recommend this place. The qualities of all produces were excellent.
My friend and I had lunch before my birthday on Sunday afternoon. The atmosphere is cozy, comfortable and well organized for hot pot restaurants.Food and vegetables are fresh, various and good amount on each dish. Not too less and not too much.We like to oder food online at the table cuz we can take time to select what should we order next without giving pressure to staffs.The staffs are attentive and fast when when serve the food from kitchenI recommend this hot pot restaurant in Long Island city area

The service is great and the flavors were spot on. I've been to some hot pots where the soup is lacking salt and flavor that is not an issue here. My only con is paying 39.99 for all you can eat and then paying additional for your soup base feels a tiny bit scammy

We made a reservation for a group of 10 at noon on Sunday. When we arrived on time at 12 pm, the rolling doors were tightly closed and there were no sign showed any info. We stood in the cold wind for about 10 minutes and had to move on to other plans.The Google maps still shows they open at 11:30 am on Sundays. Very disappointing.

I enjoyed the food here and it's a good experience overall. I had no issues with the meat, which if you order a lot, you're getting the most value. The selection is extensive and up to par with other hot pot places I've been to. The people talk very minimal to you - everything is ordered via your phone, which is fine. We were a party of 8, so we had different people ordering different food items. The staff didn't say anything, not even checking if they placed the food on the right side of the table (given we had two tables put together to fit us all). They did refill waters pretty frequently with lemon-infused water. We ordered a half/half broth - one of the halves was spicy and we got the "less spicy" and that's still quite spicy to me, so be warned. I have the same complaint as another reviewer - it's an all you can eat hot pot spot but the soup base is a separate charge (?) make that make sense!! The sauce bar is smaller than others I've been to. It had the general ingredients one would need tho, although I've been to several other hot pot places that have some helpful guides/recipes for sauce recommendations. The ambiance is very casual and the space is small. It's ideal for a hangout with friends. The pricing per person makes it a good spot for a special occasion but in that case there are better places to go out/ have a nice-elevated dining experience. However it is nice to have a hot pot location conveniently in the area in Long Island City.
Love the food
