Absolutely delicious hotpot restaurant! Melody was a wonderful host, and very attentive. There is a great selection of broths and customization options, and a good variety of toppings, some are seasonal. They have an awesome self-serve boba bar with so many options, and the milk tea options are very rich & sweet. The prices are very reasonable to boot. Definitely worth a visit!

Not sure why it took us so long to try this place! The owners are Taiwanese and they said they’ve been open for two years. I was so happy to see they had a curry pot! It was the perfect amount and you can add a build your own boba for a couple more dollars.The part that was the best was build your own pot. My kids typically only like noodles and meat with some tofu and it’s never worth it to get them their own pot. We were able to build our own with udon noodles and a bunch of meat which was just a little over a pound. We asked for a miso soup base and the kids loved it!We decided to add boba after we were done with our meal so we could take it home. They had so many different toppings. The boba was perfect! I loved the grass jelly, it seemed like it was homemade along with the almond pudding! I think half of my cup was toppings! Next you pick your drink and amount of ice and they seal it for you. They had fruit teas, milk teas along with drinks without tea. I like how thoughtful they were with having non caffeinated options also.They also automatically brought out plastic spoons, forks and extra bowls for the kids! We will definitely come back!

This place was unique and extraordinary. I cant wait to go back. This was my first time going and I did not fill my bowl up with enough delicious ingredients. This is the only place that they let you fill your drink with as many boba type items as you want without charging for each.

Me and my wife come here from time to time if we are nearby the area. We were there again few days ago, normally I trust ppl with the amount of tips I leave on the receipt. Funny thing was I happened to pay the bill with a visa gift including tips total $40. I was making a purchase somewhere that’s 10 dollars which then should empty out the card. Then it says insufficient fund, and I got curious so I checked the balance and $42 was paid. So I’m thinking maybe they overcharge me on tips?? Not really upset about that extra $2 but you can’t treat your customers like this..

I wanted to give it 4 stars but the vibe and the staff put this over the top. The drinks are self serve, so all the toppings or ice or drink you want. Me and the wife got the make your own pot and were very satisfied. The only thing is we wish there were more toppings and the quality of the meat wasnt that good. We made up for it by getting a lot more of the other toppings. The spicy broth wasnt that spicy but it was still delicious and flavorful. We feel as it is on par with boiling point. Overall will come again.

I am jealous of Ontario residents to have this place.Very good service.Impressive mini hotpot with very affordable price and numerous food. I ordered pickled mustard greens pot w/ lamb for $15. Very filling.Plenty of drinks options (self-serving milk teas&topping, slushy, coffee, soda, etc.) Too many choices for a hotpot shop!Only cons: the hotpot base soup could be improved.

Had been wanting to try a hotpot place for a while. So glad I had this as my first experience. Tried the self serve where you can decide exactly what you want for vegetables, noodles, and meats: they weigh it; then you pick a soup base. They bring it out on these personal wooden stove type boxes and light the fire underneath which keeps it boiling hot.

This place was once our go-to place. However, the last few times we went here, the staff was not welcoming. I think they are a great small shop but please be polite and courteous. The last few times, from ordering to paying the bill, we dont get a thank you or a welcome or anything. Just because you are busy doesnt mean you forget youre in a restaurant business. I dont know what happen but please remind your staff, a thank you goes a long way. Not even asking much.
