"This Beaverton location of the popular chain specializes in Mongolian-style hot pot, in which groups dunk slices of lamb, rib-eye, and wagyu beef into pots of broth. It’s best to get the restaurant’s split broth pot, with a bone marrow broth fragrant with alliums and cardamom as well as a Sichuan-spiced broth. It’s a fun, interactive option, but be forewarned: Waits can get lengthy on the weekends." - Michelle Lopez
"Sharing the same strip mall that used to house Jin Wah, Happy Lamb Hotpot is the first Oregon outpost of a Chinese hot pot chain. The restaurant is big — 210-seats big — and modern. Diners can go a la carte or all-you-can-eat, and just need to fill out a card with what they want to dip into the bubbling broth. The yin-yang soup base is exemplary, with one side chile-oil-fiery, the other mild and milky, spiked with goji berries and jujubes." - Krista Garcia, Janey Wong

"For hot pot they are loyal to the Beaverton location of this Inner Mongolian chain — Ed says he doesn't know of another place that lives up to it and calls it probably the best you can get for Portland/Beaverton standards; he also notes that Jane always out-eats him in the all-you-can-eat format and still has room for boba afterward." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
"As the Beaverton outpost of a Mongolian chain, this place leans pricier but the extensive buffet, wide range of broth options, built-in burners, and premium fillings justify it — the golden cabbage marrow broth balances heat and tang nicely, while many diners seek out the chain’s distinctive tomato broth; the all-you-can-eat option is the move, and there are fun premium choices like house cilantro-beef meatballs, lamb belly, wagyu beef, and tiger prawns — definitely spring for the added buffet-style sauce bar, which also includes desserts and appetizers." - Eater Staff
