Reviews for Seapot in San Mateo, CA
Amazing experience of true Chinese restaurant in the heart of it all. Buffet type hot-pot with all you can eat, rotating pot... filling, freshly cut all types of meats served up on your request, sauces and deserts bar, outstanding interior designespecially at the event rooms, modern and clean bathrooms, polite and pleasant service with all extra dishes (and there are alot) timely removed from your table. Place was jampacked at 1 PM on Labor Day. Seapot, you’ve got yourself a customer. Xiexie. Read more
We had a great time here: super modern deco, bright and welcoming aesthetics, food was delicious, and service was sufficient. I... love the conveyer concept of food running around so I can just grab anything I want (except meat). Would recommend this place???? Read more
This is my first time in a hotpot restaurant. We wanted to make a reservation, but they let us know that only on weekends they... take reservations. So We had to go there and write our name on the waitlist. The wait time was almost 2 hours. Since we livenearby, we went back home and came after 1.5 hours. Whatever the wait time was, the food there made us forget all the wait time.It is an all-you-can-eat type restaurant. They will first serve the soup that you ordered. Also for meat, you have to order froma server and it will be served in 5-10 minutes. You can again order for the meat and again have to wait. All the other foodingredients and desserts are served through a conveyor belt. On the table, a burner is given for each person. All the food wasvery fresh and delicious. I can say, I would go for hotpot again. The buffet price is $30+tax per person. I would recommend thisplace. Read more
Legitimately one of the best hotpot I've ever had in the US! We were a large group, so we booked a private room and it was so... nice! We went fancy and got lobsters and all sorts of other seafood. Everything came beautifully presented. Sauce bar had a goodvariety of ingredients. Service was friendly and prices were reasonable. I'd definitely come back again! Read more
Reserving a seat is easy, however getting a seat will take you 30-45minutes (but worth it). Their staff are very friendly and... snappy. Food is great, place is clean. Read more
Amazing! We absolutely loved it. It’s all you can eat buffet for $30 for dinner! And it is delicious, the vegetables are... fresh, and the ambience is fantastic. Like most Asian restaurants, the exterior doesn’t look very nice, but the interior isgreat. They have really nice rooms in the back that you can rent out for about $400 minimum. It looks like a really goodInstagram worthy place. Read more
Hot Pot place with lots of selection from seafood, meat, vegetables, and sauce. Seafood include clams, mussels, fish, tofu... fish, lobster balls, imitation crab, squid, octopus and more. Love how it is on the belt and you can pick what you like. Service is a bit slow but understandable since restaurant B's are short staff. Glad they are open and price is reasonable. I ate so much that it hurts. Definitely will come again with friends and fam. Read more
1st time here, and I had no idea what I was doing nor did the server help me. There is a self help side's bar, to get sauces,... raw eggsand other condiments. Next to your table is a rotary with different ingredients to add to your pot. You need to turn inthe table, which we were not instructed how to, but it was easy enough to figure it out. The spicey broth is not hot, butburning spice sensation, not for me. Staff never returned to f/u. Oh, and you have to order crab legs ahead. And there is analcohol bar. Cheers. Read more
