Buffalo Little Lamb

My first hot pot was a bit intimidating but that was short lived! Food is fresh and delicious, service was super helpful and attentive, everything was immaculate and really comfortable! Can't give them 5 stars because it's my first one! I'll definitely go back, and very reasonable too!

First hotpot experience ever! The servers were so patient and informative of how it all worked. Huge selection of fresh veggies and tofu which is perfect for me since I am vegetarian. My boyfriend loves their steak and the fish/pork balls. Making your own sauce to dip in is definitely my favorite part! Many broths to choose from as well and I really like that you can do split pots even if it’s only two people since my bf eats meat and I do not. Different sake and soju to try and were delicious! Ambiance is welcoming and the music/ led screen playing music videos is fun but not too loud. Very clean whenever we go, as well as the bathrooms smelling fresh. Any negative reviews about the service must’ve missed the huge “call” button at each table if you need anything or want to order more the employees come right away. We never end up even needing the call button. Overall the service was immaculate and we were constantly being checked on by all three employees which made us felt so cared for. Can’t recommend this place enough and it’s our new favorite spot!

Good place for buffet. I came here on Sunday around 1PM and took the brunch buffet. There aren’t too many options but food is decent and got filled often. I like that they have soy milk. The cake dessert is also very soft. The fried chicken is also good. Other food is a bit salty in my opinion. The restaurant is clean and staffs are friendly. Price is affordable

My husband love to go there. He love hot pot but I don’t eat beef or pork I used to order other stuff. He used to eat all you can eat hot pot now they have beer free too😁. I love to eat eggs plant dish. They never disappoint us.

We enjoyed our meal here. The food was good and the experience of it all is fun. Lots of kitchen dishes to choose from if you are not into the hot pot as well. All were plentiful and delicious. The hot pots are huge and can feed at least 2 off of one pot. If you are sharing, make sure you enjoy the same spices as you personalize each broth with the variety of ingredients at the sauce bar. Otherwise get your own broth and share the meat and veggies. I recommend going when they offer all you can eat as it can get a little pricey depending on what you order. Great conversation fun at Buffalo Little Lamb Hot Pot.

I don’t know if their quality went down when they changed how they do the all you can eat but wow what a time we had today. Nobody checked on us basically ever. They were out of the only things I wanted to eat basically for like 45 minutes and by then everyone else was done and of course I’m still paying the all you can eat price but I don’t even get to eat all I want to eat. Just such poor service today. I used to recommend this place to everyone but after the meal I had today I won’t be. Maybe I’ll come back because the food is great usually but yikes!!!! Not good today! Very upset.

I went to this restaurant with my family, including several young children who are not familiar with eating hotpot. To accommodate them, I ordered additional rice and roast duck. While we were waiting for the food, one of the kids picked up a piece of uncooked instant noodle (not used in the hotpot yet) and was about to cut it when a staff member immediately showed a bad attitude and insisted that we had to pay extra because the children were “also eating hotpot,” even though we did not order an additional hotpot portion. I was very disappointed with this kind of service. Instead of assisting us politely, the staff was unfriendly and unprofessional. Situations like this could be handled with flexibility and courtesy, especially when children are involved. I hope the restaurant can improve its customer service, especially when serving families with kids. Respectful and professional service is key to a good dining experience.

Hot pot is so enjoyable and delicious! We went in a big group and ordered a lot of food. We loved it and you can create your own sauces. I wish they had more choices for the hot pot soup. But overall 5 stars for the food and service.

Okay, perhaps I was putting too much of my soup review in the overall review of hot pot at Little Lamb. So 4 stars for the restaurant. The restaurant was neat and clean, and the server was excellent. The hot pot is buffet, something we didn't really take much advantage of, as two of us had no idea what and how, so time was spent learning about it. I think I might actually try hot pot again, now that I've got the hang of it. I wish, though, that there were more vegetables. Broccoli, maybe, and radish. Green beans. Hot pot is a unique experience, and if you enjoy raclette and fondue and charcuterie, you will likely enjoy hot pot. A big + is that hot pot is available 7 days a week... and seniors 55 and over are given a 15% discount!

Our favorite hotpot spot! It's a chilled place, never too busy. Love the C-pop music videos playing on the big screen and the various hotpot meats and veggies offered are great.

From an experience stand point this is always a great place to go. We've been coming here for a long time now and always enjoy. That said, service is always a weak point and this last visit was particularly poor. Took a long time to be greeted, order taken, and the. Getting the broth to cook took forever. We will continue to go here but I hope service improves.

This was my first hour of experience so 4 stars because I have no comparison. I bet much enjoyed the all you can eat hot pot. The variety of items available to cook on the broth seemed endless. The vegetables were fresh, the noodles were really good. The meats were good. The sauces were delicious. The servers and staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a party of 7 and we got our own room. I was grateful to get some tips from the more experienced dinners that were there. I would definitely go back to visit the little lamb.

Love love love this place. It's now an all you can eat hot pot place. They still have the paper out where you can order your broth and meat. They put all the veggies, seafood and tofu in a buffet table where you can grab anything you want.

Been to this place few times but I guess I never reviewed it. It has been 2-3 years since I went last time with a couple of my friends so we decided to go there again. Well, now they offered all you can eat hot pot. So we were like ok, let's do that to compare with other hot pot. Their non all you can eat hot pot menu was small. You choose the broth and the cut of meat you want and they will bring it to you. The rest of the food you go to buffet area. The waiter very nice and attentive. Compare to Korean BBQ, all is self serve including the meat and they have BBQ grilled option. This one only hot pot. Selection also smaller however this place has options of cooked food! There's fried noodles, chicken fritters, duck and few others. Also have noodles station to cook ramen kind of noodle. It was quiet and clean. They also have sauce station where you make your own combination sauce. We think if you only want to do hotpot probably better off to Buffalo little lamb.

There are two vegetarian broths - mushroom and tomato. You can order a la carte for your add-ins or , Mon-Thurs, there's a flat price option - $27 for unlimited food. The broth is about $4.50, and you go from there. They offer tons of veggies, many soy and tofu options, two types of mushrooms, noodpes, rice cakes, and condiment bar with many sauces, oils, cilantro, peanuts, etc. Thr various tofu options were awesome - especially the dried rolled up one that turns wonderfully spongy in the broth. The tofu skin, which I normally love, didn't absorb much broth. My favorites ended up being enoki mushrooms, dried tofu, Chinese cabbage, noodles, taro, and potatoes. The other stuff was great, too, but these were the items that performed best in the broth. The table has recessed pot heaters where your broth is set. You control the temperature with a knob. Some things cook longer than others, so it's good to have a variety of things in the pot at a time. It's fun to go with a small group and try many add-ins. We had a real feast.

Nice place to sit and enjoy time with the real ones. Services must be nice. Food is so fullfiling!

Good place for buffet. I came here on Sunday around 1PM and took the brunch buffet. There aren't too many options but food is decent and got filled often. I like that they have soy milk. The cake dessert is also very soft. The fried chicken is also good. Other food is a bit salty in my opinion. The restaurant is clean and staffs are friendly. Price is affordable

idk why this place is rated so low because you get more than what you pay for. as a chinese person who's lived in china for many years, i won't say it's "authentic" but it's probably the best deal for authentic you can get here. the owners are chinese and if you think they're ever rude trust that it's a language barrier. they offer a weekend lunch buffet for only $12 pp before tip + tax, with a GREAT selection. you can't ask for much if you're only paying $12 but i can say i'm fully satisfied with what they provide. weekdays they have all you can eat hotpot which is a great deal too. can't compare it to big city hot pots but it definitely can fulfill your craving.

First time here, they have a dining room but then they have a karaoke room in the back you can rent. It holds up to 14 people and you do have to spend $150 or more to rent it, an extra 1/2 hour is $17 more. If you have any food sensitivities let them know right away, they did make someone in our party steamed veggies since she can't have gluten, soy, eggs, and mushrooms. The server was very nice and accommodating!

Service is decent when it's the younger guy. All the other ones don't really tend you. Pricing is alittle bad unless you get buffet. The quality isn't the best either. Overall experience is okay. Only hotpot spot in the area so it'll have to do. 3.4 star experience. Hopefully there will be a better place soon to make them try harder

It was the first time our family ate here. We called a couple of days before to make a reservation for my daughter's high school graduation celebration dinner. We had a whole room set up for our family. The server was wonderful and kept bringing out dishes per our request. The food, service and experience was excellent!

This place is super cool! It's Kinda like the middle part of the melting pot except everyone gets there own broth bowl! I got the mushroom broth. Theres so many choices of what you can cook inside the broth. The stars of course are the meats. I got the thinly slicked ribeye. It was delicious! The corn and udon noodles where also a stand out of what I tried. The sauce bar is also really cool. You can try then by themselves or mix some together to create something new. I really enjoyed the sweet sauce I created. Only one star off as the staff was not very attentive.

for the price and location it's pretty decent. quality of food is sometimes a hit or miss. they have AYCE hot pot for $27 but it's ONLY monday-thursday and you can choose to share a large pot (ying yang) or do personal small pots. friday, saturday and sunday is à la cart. good for gatherings and they have karaoke rooms for larger groups in the back rooms. service is good everyone is super friendly. my go to hot pot restaurant in buffalo.

Food was enjoyed by all. Hot and tasty. Nice waitress. Always nice place to celebrate special occasions

The hotpot here is just okay, definitely not as good as nyc. However, their entree menu is soooo good like the crispy spicy fish and chongqing chicken. Their brunch buffet on the weekends is good and affordable and the menu changes every week.

Came here the night before Lunar New Year because it's been a tradition to have hot pot on the eve of CNY ever since I was a kid! I'm glad to see Buffalo Little Lamb is allowing dine-in. I recommend coming here with people who you live with only as you'll be sharing the hot pot. Everything is really clean and the staff is great. They are still allowing you to make your own sauces as long as you wear gloves. The sauce station was spotless!

Why were we never here before? We stopped here for a late lunch and had the place to ourselves. Understandable since it was a Saturday afternoon around 3:00. We ordered 2 appetizer, scallion pancakes and pork fried dumplings. The pancake was nicely crisp and tasted good but I honestly expected more, maybe bigger? The dumplings were exactly the way I like them with a bit of a kick in the spices. For my meal I got the chicken with black bean sauce and my husband got sesame chicken. The portions were generous. My chicken was tender with plenty of veggies including broccoli, carrots, and onions, all perfectly cooked. I don't like when the veggies are overcookedand almost mushy. The black bean sauce perfectly coated the dish. My husband liked his chicken also. We will definitely be back to try their hot pots. They looked so good when I checked out other reviews!

It's been a while since I last ate here. First time I came here was for hotpot and this time is also for hotpot. We went on a Thursday night around 6:30p and we got seated right away. It was starting to get busy as we got there. They have the option of individual pots or one big one with a split middle for different broths. It is all you can eat! They have a couple of broth options. A good selections of meat, fishball, veggies, noodles, seafood, and some pancakes as a side dish. We tried the scallion pancakes and we thought it wasn't crispy enough. Also ordered the sweet potatoes pancake and it was good. Always a good choice to get the individual pots but you don't have to worry about what others can and cannot eat. Oh, they also have a sauce station for you to make your own dipping sauce! Always a plus :)

My go to place these days for a huge dinner. We availed the Buffet on a Thursday and it was worth every penny. The combination of sauces, and the Mala Spicy broth makes a perfect pairing. We had the crab sticks, the lamb and the fatty beef, mushrooms, bok choy, and fish cakes. We ended with the scallion pancakes which was a pleasant surprise too. We ate like a LOT LOT. Always satisfied, never complaining! We usually fast the next day because we stay so full! The textures, the fresh flavors keep us glued! We love to come here with friends and silently slurp on our food.

I absolutely loved this restaurant! One of the coolest dining experiences I have had. I came here with a friend and we got the all you can eat option. It was beyond worth the price! We enjoyed trying all the different broths and food choices. I got to try a lot of new foods and they all tasted great. I highly recommend to order the taro pancakes. They even have a sauce station to enhance the hot pot food that is ordered. The waiter was very attentive and frequently asked what we wanted to order from the menu next. The restaurant itself was clean and up to date as well. I am already planning on my next trip here soon!

I went to this place four times and each and every time we have had the hotpot. I went on a Groupon for the first time and paid $10 for the buffet. Hence my experience was really above expectations. It really hits you if you are paying $25+tax per person which is the actual rate on regular days. However they have a wide range of choices that ranges from sliced lamb, chicken, beef, fish, imitation crabs to vegetables such as bok choy, spinach, different mushrooms. Every time we take the mala spicy broth as our soup base. The trick is to find the right combination of sauces from the sauce counter that you would want to mix with the boiled items. We had peanut sauce with crushed peanuts and sesame on top, chicken satay sauce with sesame oil and crushed peanuts, chive sauce with sesame oil and spring onions, chili sauce with little soy, and hoisin sauce. However this combination is suited to our taste palette and might not be recommended for everyone. For any meat eater, I would recommend going for the buffet. The vegetarian options are comparatively inexpensive.

Arrived at 9:12pm, they were already closing (10pm posted). Might be good but never tasted it.

I haven't given this place a chance since my initial visit their first month open (when I came because of a Groupon Deal). Boy, am I upset I haven't returned. They have a hush-hush, All You Can Eat Hot Pot, on Tuesdays. We came and got a nice big space in a lively restaurant. The energy was amazing and everything looked delicious on neighboring tables. I was genuinely excited, as my hunger built for both the experience and taste. I usually do hot pot in the Boston Chinatown when I visit my sister, but I liked how up to date, chic and modern this restaurant was- in comparison to the traditional ones I've been too. A lot different than the cold and quiet experience I had initially. Everything was fresh, clean and the staff were fast and friendly. They didn't have some of the drink options listed and the wine came out warm, but those little details did nothing to deter our experience. Can't wait to return with more friends.

The all you can eat Hot Pot is such a treat! Monday - Thursday. Come hungry. The ribeye is wonderful with the spicy broth. And the shrimp are HUGE prawns, with the head on. And the handmade noodles are so delightfully chewy. The service is very attentive. Plentiful choices for sauces, even a small recipe menu if you want to mix a sauce based on pairings. Not sure I have a negative critique based on my experience. $63 for the two of us, in a very zen atmosphere, I'll take that any day of the week. Couldn't recommend enough!

I love the Buffalo Little Lamb hotpot experience. And it's a great place for a 10 person or so birthday outing with an added private karaoke room. Generally, those rooms are available with a $150 minimum spend but with a party of 10 it's only about $15 per person which is generally reasonable and makes sense. As far as food goes, they have a buffet option Mon-Thur for $25/pp or a la carte. Whenever I go, we generally do not do the buffet as we find ourselves typically spending about $70 for 4 people with everyone being full. If you're a more voracious eater or just particularly hungry, the buffet may be good. Here's how it works: - you order the broth and items a la carte. - For meats, the fatty beef and pork belly are my go-to's. I generally cook them first and the other side of the cafe has dipping sauces that you can make for the meats/items. Think of it as a fondue style, you flash cook the items in boiling water (the meats are typically thin so they cook very quickly) and then dip in sauces and eat. - I then move on vegetables, followed by any seafood and noodles generally last (so as not to make the broth too starchy). It was also great for my wife's Whole 30 diet! So the hotpot experience is very friendly to many different dietary restrictions. They don't typically tell you this when you order, so oftentimes you're on your own. All in all - it's a social dining and bonding experience and the ambiance is pretty nice. I definitely recommend it!

Came for the all you can eat (AYCE) hot pot special ($25 Mon - Thurs) and had a great experience. We made a reservation for a group of 9 and they put us in the private room. How the AYCE works - you get a paper menu for your table and tally off which items you'd like. Have each person choose their broth base, then any meat, veggies, noodles, etc. We enjoyed everything we got but the shrimp - they were large and still had their head and shell on, and needed to be deveined, so a little messy. Once you're ready to order, press the button and the waitress will come. Once the broth and food arrives, they'll show you how to turn on your hot pot. They recommend starting on 5 (the highest) to get it to a boil, then turn it up and down yourself as needed. They didn't give us any times for how long to cook anything, so we winged it. The meatballs and noodles took the most time, the rest of the items cooked really quickly. The AYCE also includes pancakes (already cooked). We got the scallion pancake and the sweet potato pancake - both were really good. They come sliced into 6 small pieces. After you cook your food, there's a sauce bar where you can grab some and take back to your table. I highly recommend the bibs (on top of the sauce bar). Several people at our table didn't grab them and spilled sauce on themselves later. If coming for Hot Pot, there are 4 person and 6 person hot pot tables, and two 10 person tables in private rooms. I saw other reviews criticize the service, but every time we rang the button we got service right away. The only thing I'd knock a star for would be that our waitress didn't tell us much until after we asked (like the bibs for example). I also wish we had more space. The lazy Susan was great but we were constantly tidying our table because of the lack of space. There were also fruit flies by the sauce bar, but I'm not sure how that could be controlled. Those are all minor to me though. Overall I still felt it was a good hotpot experience, and I'd highly recommend coming for the AYCE.

The worst hotspot I ever had. The food in this restaurant are extremely bad. Bad flavors, 100years frozen meet. Definitely worthless. Service is not bad. The only star is for the services.

We absolutely love this place, there has never been a time we went that we were disappointed! Food is amazing, we love making our own dip. Service is awesome as well, the atmosphere is very relaxing.

My husband and I stopped by on a Thursday night to try the hotpot. We ordered off the menu instead of choosing the all you can eat option. We ordered pork, beef, fish balls, potato, mushrooms, tofu, bok choy, noodles and a spicy broth. We went to the sauce bar to make a few dipping sauces and found that it was a fairly good variety of items. The order came rather quickly and we began with putting in the potatoes because they take a while to cook. We then tried the meats and tofu, then the rest. The broth was good but it was even better when I threw in some of the items from the sauce bar. We ended with noodles because the broth is so much tastier at the end from everything cooked in it. I would definitely return but keep in mind it's a bit expensive and I don't believe you can really take home your leftovers. Our bill was close to $50 without beverages... only had water.

I've eaten here a few times. I love their hot pot. I've never waited long for food. You get a lot of food for the price, so it's a great value. The service is so-so but the food is great. It's my favorite spot for hot pot.

Shabu shabu! Fun to say fun to eat! I am familiar with hot pot restaurants, I have tried them before. This was my first time having a hot pot in Buffalo, NY. Hot pots are great for social gatherings and groups of people. Eating this type of food in a social setting is a great way to bond with the other people in your group, while trying something new! We went with a group of friends, during their all you can eat special. You heard me right . All you can eat. Start off with your flavored broth then they hand you a menu and mark off all of the proteins and vegetables you would like to try. They have an authentic variety from beef tenderloin, all the way to duck flippers and pig intestine. I will say I was not adventurous..... yet ... to try the duck flippers l, but they do have an awesome variety for the novice food eater. I highly recommend the pork belly, and the lamb. Don't forget to try their pancakes as well, my personal favorites were the black sesame and taro. Pro tip: save your noodles for last, along with your seafood, as the starch will " gum" up your broth, and the seafood will flavor everything else you cook My only complaint a few of the meat varieties like the meatballs and the sausage were less than flavorful. Also! Be careful if you order hot tea, the cups they give you are not meant for hot liquids! I will definitely be back!

I went in with 2 family members on Sunday morning when they just opened. We ordered dishes. All 4 dishes were delicious. Most other people had brunch buffet, which is a great deal. I saw staff refilled buffet food frequently. I will try it next time.

What a unique dining experience! I had the Dinner Buffet which runs $25 a person and the selection of meats, veggies, and sauce combinations makes for a satisfying and flavorful meal. I started with chicken breast slices and finished with pork meatballs. You boil your broth of choice at the table then cook the meats, veggies, tofu, etc.. in said broth. They also have private karaoke rooms available for use as well. The atmosphere was nice and the staff friendly, though a mini tutorial might be needed :)

I am the Dutchess of Little Lamb! Fight me. I love this place. My husband is a big man, and any place he can get filled up so I don't have to hear about it is okay by me! $25pp for all-you-can-eat hot pot is available Monday-Thursday. Just do it. They also have a selection of other options, which also look good, but we have not tried. The service is fantastic and they can answer any questions you have. Their do-it-yourself sauce bar is fun, and you can mix together a variety of accoutrements to suit your palate. The gigantic TV wall with karaoke videos is a bit much at times, but otherwise the place is very nicely equipped. They also offer a big, private back room for parties. Oh, and they have bibs if you need them. :-)

Soooooooo disappointed I had seen the photos which I thought were cool and wanted to try it out. The menu was a little confusing and I explained that to the server and that it was my first time there. She did explain the menu a little better so I understood what I was getting. She failed to tell me that I controlled the pot and needed to turn it on. Once receiving my food, luckily another server walking by realized my pot wasn't actually on. The other server also explained the station of sauces they had as I was definitely wondering how this raw food was going to be seasoned. While choosing your food options, you pick a broth for your flavor. I chose seafood which unfortunately seemed like water and imitation crab meat. The food ended up bland. Several of the sauces at the station were empty. The ones I did try I was not a fan of so stuck with soy sauce. This place could be a gem with better communication and some instruction. Nice portion of food with beverage, appetizer and tip only ran me $39. I'd only go back if I had someone with me with some experience.

I've been wanted to try this place for a long time, and it didn't disappoint. Went on a Saturday and couldn't get AYCE, and the hotpot portion came to about $34, which I shared with my toddler. Had a hotpot combo, an additional broth as well as a vegetable combo. I wasn't sure what to expect from the vegetable combo, and it was mostly greens (bokchoy, watercress, broccoli, Napa cabbage, lettuce, and a few slices of sweet potato). Partner had a stir fry and we shared a few appetizers while our pots boiled. Service was completely fine and what I expect from an Asian restaurant. I really appreciated the buttons behind the table to ask for service. I prefer this dining style because no one is interrupting you while you eat, and they come so quickly with a press of the button. Tea was great, can't wait to return.

Great except the tomato soup base was literally just ketchup and water, it was so watery and tasted kinda gross. The other soups are also watery but the quality of their meats and vegetables are great.

Little lamb has so many options, especially as a vegetarian with diet restrictions. The food was immaculate and the service was fast and incredibly friendly. The younger guy with the tattoo was very helpful explaining how the hot pot operates. Great atmosphere all around!

Second time here for dinner with a larger group so we obvi ask for the "big pot". This time instead of just getting the herbal broth (which we had on our very first visit and liked a lot!) we opted for a Ying Yang - herbal and mushroom. I was hesitant the mushroom would be overpowering but boy was I wrong! It's more mellow than herbal and sooo good!! For appetizers we tried the veggie spring rolls and veggie dumplings: awesome!! And for the hot pots we ordered: + baby bok choy + fresh tofu + sweet corn cobs + taro root + melon + seaweed knots + fried cruellers (I call these Chinese donuts), this was more like an appetizer but you "can" put it into the hot pot if you want +handmade noodles Everyone was very happy with the choices, and satisfied with dinner. The ambience was nice - Chinese music video on the big screen but not so loud you can't hear/talk. There were other flat screens with basketball game and news channel on (muted). The servers were very nice, however, they don't come around to check on you so if you need something you have to get their attention (raise hand, or call out to them when they are walking by, etc.). Overall this is a great place and a keeper in my books for some family style eating time!

I love this place. Noted, I'm a big noodles girl. The best part is getting to cook your own food, so it's always perfect. The enoki mushroom's paired with the udon noodles, and herbal broth is forever my favorite part. This place is beginner friendly, and the waiters are fast. Food comes out on a big tray ready for you to prep. It has a fancier ambiance to it, but the booths are getting old. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun new restaurant.

Buffalo Little Lamb is one of my favorite restaurants from Buffalo. Not only is there almost no other place like this in the area, but the food is delicious! I can't even count how many times I've been here, but every time I've been here it would be a 4-5/5 stars! I've eaten their Chinese dishes and hot pot buffet so I have experience with both aspects of the restaurant. I especially love the hot pot buffet and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for something different, tons of variety, and fun to eat! For the AYCE, you start by choosing from 4-5 different types of broth and you can get them spicy or not spicy. You can even adjust the flavor of your broth at their sauce bar in the front. They have a wide selection of meats (red meat or fish), noodles, veggies, and Chinese pancakes. With this much variety, you'll never eat the same thing every time you come here. But this place is amazing for someone who is vegan or vegetarian because of the variety! They even have private rooms in the back if you are interested in karaoke and hot pot! I had a team bonding event where we had hot pot AND karaoke in our own private room. The song selection was very good. They had Chinese songs but also so many popular American songs.

Very good food. Very nice people. A bit pricey so definitely go during the all you can eat for one price day. A Satisfying meal & really fun to go with with family or friends, probably not with small children.

Not full five stars ordered 3 things on menu and do not have. Closest one to me with out going over the border. Food is good, but one other weaker selections for hot pot restaurant . NJ and nyc and Florida has better hot pot restaurants. Multiple times it has happened at this place. Maybe because I like the exotic items and they are tougher to get. Food and staff is nice that is why it got 4 stars, trying the hot pot across the border next time.

It was very very good. They bring you a menu to check off what you want and take that back to the kitchen, so you do not need to tell them what you want to order individually. It was a little unorganized when we went in, there seemed to be only one waitress at the time we arrived and they told us it was going to be a 30 m wait but we got seated 10 mins after arriving. A few people left because they were waiting there a while but I did not personally experience that. The food is very fresh, I got to try a lot I had never experienced at other hot pots. It's the only one I could find in the Niagara area that holds a traditional layout, but there are a lot of TVs and it is quite loud at times but also very peaceful when not everyone is talking. I recommend coming with 2+ people so you can experience a lot of good food. Mon-Fri it's about $90 for 3 people before tip. The waitress was extremely kind and helped our friend who had never came to hot pot and explained a lot. The prices seem steep on weekends so I recommend coming on a weekday! It was so yummy, we recommend trying the meats first, noodles last. Save room and eat what you paid for!! (:

AYCE hotpot in Buffalo! They offer AYCE from Monday-Thursday's only and last time I came here it was approximately $25/ person. They also have other menu items you can order, such as Asian pancakes. The broth here is slightly bland for my taste but they have a sauce section where you can make your own sauce and dip your food in, and I mean, how can I complain when it's AYCE. They also offer breakfast/ brunch on Sunday if you want to check it out. Approx $10/ person. The only thing for breakfast is if you go in too early when the restaurant opens, they do not have all the food prepared until later so I recommenced going in a little later after the restaurant opens.

i'm obsessed with this place. i go there for my birthday every year and it's just so fun. they have great sauce recipes and i love to get a new hot pot broth every time. the prices aren't bad either! once i went as a party of 3 and we only spent $36 in total. that's a steal! you just have to know exactly how much food you're going to eat, which is easy because you can order as you go.

A friend wanted to check out this place so we stopped here last night. We got here at 5pm and there wasn't a wait for a table. There are many booths and I noticed a private dining area for groups of 10 or more. We each had a pop. (Orange pop for me and lemonade for my friend.) It was two small cane for $1.75 each. Monday through Thursday they have a $26 All You Can Eat special. We decided to get that, even though they have a separate menu. (The other chef wasn't there so we were told that we couldn't order an appetizer off of the regular menu.) I received one paper menu for both of us. You check off what broth and other menu items you would like. I ordered a seafood broth, shrimp, scallops, sliced carrots, and steamed rice. My friend had a different broth with thinly sliced rib eye, cabbage, baby bok choy, lobster flavor balls, and shiitake mushrooms. The broth is brought out and you heat it up yourself by turning on the burner. The dial is in front of you. I didn't realize the shrimp would come out raw, with their eyes still on there. (I didn't know WHAT I was thinking.) I gave them all to my friend and told her she could have them. Once we had our food cooking, we got up and added ingredients and sauces together to create our own dipping sauce. I added my dipping sauce to my rice and my friend added her to her broth. Our waitress asked that we use gloves, when we are at the dipping sauce station. There is a karaoke area here but the sound was odd (or really low), which I was fine with. Our waitress was excellent as was the food. It was a neat experience to cook my own food. I left very full and happy. I would definitely return.
