东镇老火锅 Flower Peppers

Flower Peppers Hot Pot delivers one of the most satisfying hot-pot experiences around. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the aroma of rich broths and fragrant spices — especially that signature málà kick that sets this place apart. The broth options are excellent, but the Flower Pepper spicy broth is the star: aromatic, layered, and just the right balance of numbing heat and deep flavor. Ingredients are impressively fresh — the thin-sliced beef curls beautifully in the pot, the vegetables are crisp, and the seafood tastes clean and high-quality. Service is friendly and quick, and the staff actually pays attention to your table, checking in without hovering. The sauce station is well-stocked and clean, with plenty of options for customizing your perfect dipping mix. The atmosphere is warm, lively, and perfect for groups. Everything feels intentional: from portion sizes that justify the price to the well-organized table setup that makes cooking easy instead of chaotic.

Like this place. Too bad no all server speak english. Their check in mandarin so if you can not read it, make sure you remember what your order and the price 😅. Seasoned cripy pork and pork stew is the best. Crab with salty egg is okay, with corn. Crab $ 59.99 Lobster is just okay, no meat 🤣 pricey $ 79.99. Fish soup with pickle veggies is pretty good.

Such a wonderful place for cozy winter night hotpot! The ingredients are fresh and the broth is pretty flavorful. Beef tongue is a must try!

My favorite Chinese restaurant. Delicious food with good service! You must try!

Wyd too overpriced, horrible attitude. Owner is awful and is liar and hustler because even when items were out still calculated in our bill. Never answers to customer concerns. No flavor too bland the barbecue and the hotpot had low quality meat and seafood.

I personally love everything about this restaurant. It is great for a date with the significant other or even family gatherings. The service is outstanding and the waiters are absolutely some of the kindest people I have met. The food is delicious for anyone's pallet. They do deliver and there is a party room for larger gatherings. So grab some friends or family and head straight to Flower Peppers.

Very delicious and spicy szechuan food. Their lamb on skewers is delicious, and so is their spicy chicken. They have really yummy soft boiled beef and I really enjoy their green beans. Avoid the pork belly though, too sweet, that is my one complaint but all the spicy meat is amazing.

We visited SoCal specifically because a friend told us that they have the grilled frog in copper pot dish. We drove down in 6 hours to try it so why only 3 stars? Well, first of all, let's talk about false advertisement. The grilled frog in copper pot has three key ingredients: frogs, grilled, copper pot. However, we got a spicy frog in Sichuan sauce in an aluminum pan. The lame excuse is that it's due to covid but there is no way the frogs are grilled. They are not even breaded properly. It's so different not only from the real deal it's a completely different dish. The frogs are at least fresh which is all I will say. For about $80 it's a huge letdown. The services were good as we were offered free coconut juice but I couldn't add more stars because the other dishes weren't anything special either. The 小炒肉 or stir-fried sliced pork is my judge of how good a restaurant is and it's only so so. It's not bad but not worth driving more than 30 minutes for. The Sichuan fried pork also is not crispy enough to be any special as even Haidilao has better version. It's not a bad restaurant but not special enough to warrant a return visit when there are so many choices in SoCal.
