Haidilao Hot Pot Irvine

The Best Kid-Friendly Family Restaurants in San Diego | Eater San Diego

"The hot pot restaurant in the Westfield UTC mall has lots of entertainment for kids and adults alike, starting with a robot that delivers ready-to-cook dishes to the table. Dressed in a traditional Chinese costume, an entertainer regularly performs with a “face-changing mask” that ranges from Beijing opera to Spiderman to the delight of children. A must-order item is the Dancing Noodle dish, which involves the entertainer performing an iconic dance while hand-pulling noodles tableside. Children get free meals, including unlimited chicken nuggets, fruit, a Yakult yogurt drink, and a sweet character bun, along with unlimited snacks of fruit, veggies, and popcorn." - Helen I. Hwang
