Xi Hotpot & Chinese Cuisine 大渝喜筵火锅电烤串

The big highlight is definitely the broth and ingredients. They’ve got a nice variety of soup bases, from rich and savory to seriously spicy, so you can mix and match depending on how you’re feeling. The spicy broth especially gets props from a lot of folks for having that real Sichuan kick.

This restaurant offers an upscale and elegant dining experience, and the pricing reflects that. If you’re looking for a luxurious atmosphere to impress your friends, this is a great choice, though it may not be the best option if value is your priority. The seafood was incredibly fresh—likely prepared just moments before being served. The attention to detail in presentation was impressive, from the spotless utensils to the beautifully matched plates and bowls with gold trim. Even the mini sausages were meticulously cut, enhancing both their appearance and taste. That said, while the refined touches were appreciated, they felt a bit excessive for my personal preference. I was hoping for a more traditional Asian dining experience with a stronger emphasis on value rather than presentation. However, I recognize that this is a matter of personal taste rather than a flaw in the restaurant itself. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience, just not exactly what I was looking for.

I recently dined at Xi Hotpot, and it was an exceptional experience! The atmosphere is vibrant and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal or a fun outing with friends. The variety of ingredients available is impressive, from fresh vegetables to premium meats and seafood. The broth selection is fantastic—each option is flavorful and perfect for dipping. The staff was friendly and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. I particularly loved the spicy broth; it had just the right kick! Overall, Xi Hotpot offers a unique dining experience that combines great food with a lively atmosphere. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu! Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious premium hotpot meal.

Nice hotpot restaurant! Meat quality was good. The handcrafted noodles and broth were the best things available. We got the chicken fish maw broth! We wished there were more vegetables to pick from. Areas that could be improved would be expanding the sauce bar. There could be more variety compared to other hotpot restaurants in the area. The dessert was also very limited to just the jello dessert, which was okay. Overall, it was okay for hotpot, but for the price and limited selections, there are better options available.

I’ve visited about six hotpot restaurants in Duluth, and this one is by far the best! I’ve been here three times now, and each visit has been fantastic. The Tom Yum soup base is way too good, and the staff is genuinely kind and welcoming. The last time I ate here, I came alone for a solo date night while my husband was on a business trip. It was a personal challenge to work on my social anxiety, and the experience couldn’t have been better. The staff made me feel comfortable, they even gave me a free tea and I had plenty of leftovers to take home. The variety of ingredients and the quality of the food are outstanding. Without a doubt, a 10/10 from me!

I visited this restaurant for the first time with friends, and we enjoyed the food. We tried three different dishes from the same pot, and both the meat and veggies were great. However, it seems like the restaurant may be in the process of renovating because some areas looked unfinished. The space felt quite empty, including the sauce-making bar and the dessert bar.

So happy I finally got to try this place out! I managed to snag one of the vip slots to get the initial 20% discount. Aside from that, I actually really enjoyed my experience here. The quality of the food here is great. If you want pure value for money by comparing it to the ayce hot pot spots in the area it's hard to match that but I still found it to be a pretty solid deal given I can't eat a lot anyway. The split amongst my friends did amount to what one spends at any of the ayce spots with tip included, so do with that what you will. The meat variety is OK, along with the veggies, but what they do have is very good. I wasn't disappointed, to say the least. Now, the soup bases were amazing. I absolutely adored the spicy beef tallow. The mushroom soup was good, too, and just enough flavor, but I couldn't stop indulging in the spicy soup. One of the best I've ever had. This is more of your family style hotpot so just a heads up. Overall, the service was great, being able to order off the tablet is nice, and they make sure your soup base stays full throughout the experience. For others who bank on value for their hotpot outing, this may be a tough sell, but if you want quality, this one is hard to beat. I definitely don't mind trying this again. But just keep in mind if you want a huge variety of stuff and just overall just a lot of stuff. Give it a try, I think you'll still enjoy it

I used to live in Sichuan so I was so excited to try this place! It felt like we were back in China! Amazing service. We got medium spicy and bone broth half and half because we love spicy, but needed a non spicy option for our kids. Our kids loved the food. It was delicious. I loved the tofu skin and frozen tofu, the tripe and the goose intestines were delicious. The broth flavor is perfect. I cannot wait to come back!
