Reviews for Hometown Hotpot & BBQ in New York, NY
Great solid choice for hotpot in the city, especially for the price point. Would definitely come back to try the BBQ option as... well. They have a wide assortment for sauces, to complement your meat and veggies. And a wide drinks menu, alcoholic andnon-alcoholic. Very family friendly & large gathering friendly, but can get loud to hear your own party sitting at your table.But just goes to show how popular this place is, even on a regular weeknight. Read more
One of the better hotpots in the city that i can recall - for sure. I forget the name of the drink but its the only green... option, but apparently its one of the more popular choices. I liked it! It was fine. Not that strong. $10, not gonna fret muchabout that. The food itself was a bit higher quality than some other hot pots ive been too. I noticed it. The part i didnt lovewas the wait. We tried to go a while ago and it was a 2 hour wait so we didnt go. Today was an hour wait even though 80% of thetables were empty. So odd. Apparently they wont take reservations of parties less than 6 so i guess that makes sense. So we wentaround the corner to oreillys and got a drink and 25 minutes later the called us. It got crowded and kinda loud but i guess imstill a little weirded out by that logic to not seat us? Idk. Service was great. Polite. Quiet. I have no complaints. Overall iloved it and its currently my go to hotpot option! Read more
This was a great ?discovery?, considering it was on the ground floor of my hotel building NOBLEDen, a great hotel by the way.... The food was great tasting and additional spices made a lot of difference. The staff were helpful and the requests for specificmeats was received warmly. It was all reasonably priced and I would recommend this experience to anyone Read more
Been looking for a nice and very affordable UNLIMITED Korean BBQ in town and I think I've found it lol ALSO it offers UNLIMITED... HOTPOT TOO at the same time. Very reasonable price. No need to travel to Flushing for something like this anymore && they offera lot of options to choose from Read more
Very clean environment with nice decorations and nice ambiance. The quality of the meats is pretty good but I think this place... lacks variety with the AYCE hotpot. Not a lot of options from the seafood section and the Blue Crabs are also not available.Some seafoods are also extra charge so it?s not really an all inclusive AYCE. The service is also really slow but that might bebecause they?re a little short staffed. Read more
Excellent hotpot! We tried the trio pot with Chicken broth, Chinese herbs & TomYum. We loved the Chinese herbs the most, so so... good. The beef there is very fresh too. They serve you a big plate based on numbers of people to start. Then when we ask formore they will reduce the quantity, which is perfect. We don?t need to ask for more many times. The source is excellent!!! Weloved the house source (that has sesame seeds) added a bit chilly, cilantro & onions - perfect for the entire hotpot. Highlyrecommend! Read more
Decent kbbq and hotpot restaurant. Definitely not the best for its price but it shouldn't disappoint. Not that much for... selection on the kbbq side and when the waitress was cooking our food she kind of kept tossing it around without any care. Maybeshe was just tired that day, not sure. Other than that the food was tasty but I probably won't be coming back anytime soon sincethere are better options around the area. Read more
The only thing I could say negative is that the table is so big and the place is so crowded that it's hard to maintain a... conversation let alone hear the other person. We waited almost 2hours to get a table here, but when we finally did we enjoyed ita lot. I am not a huge fan of Korean food so it was more about the experience than the tastyness. Interesting concept Read more
