Hotpot was okay. Not much service or ambiance.
The service was good and our hotpot came relatively quickly however, the actual food was very mediocre. I got the vegetarian hotpot with Thai soup and while it was delicious in the beginning, as you made your way down the bowl, the one-note flavor became increasingly obvious and honestly, I was bored by the time I finished it. The Thai soup was good but again, as you continued eating it just got too lemony. The highlight of our meal was actually the boba! The Thai tea and the boba were so good and extremely affordable compared to the usual outrageous boba prices. The actual restaurant was not well-cleaned and lacked any sort of ambiance. The floors were disgustingly wet and five minutes in, I almost slipped and fell on the way to my table. My friend had a boot on her foot due to an injury and found it difficult to walk around with liquids on the floor. The bathroom was just as nasty with 1 of the 2 stalls clogged and the ground somehow being even more soggy and slippery than the restaurant floor. Overall, good food, incredible boba, and horrible vibes. Vegetarian options: only one vegetarian option, but it’s pretty good
Don't expect to get your pot fast if you come alone. Normally it would take 10-15 mins to get the pot you ordered, but lately this particular location start prioritizing group size instead of time of order when preparing the hotpot. Long wait (45+ mins) if there are big parties ahead or behind you. Skip this place if you are in a rush or just want a hot soup after work, it not worth the time.
Tasty Pot is one of my favorite spot to eat in the Bay Area! Their Simple menu includes some of the best and most Flavorful Hot pots such as Thai Flavor, Curry Hot pot, Spicy Beef, Kim Chi Dumplings Hot Soup, Healthy Veggies Hot Soup, Cheesy Milk Hot Soup, Lamb Hot Soup, Japanese Miso Hot Soup, Stinky Tofu Hot Pot, Seafood Lobster hot pot, and my favorite Taiwanese Supreme Spicy Hot Pot. I have already tried Thai Flavor and Taiwanese Supreme. Both are Tasty, Hearty, Flavorful, Spicy, and definitely Delicious!!! I love their portions size and the healthy ingredients! Spicy and flavorful that is right up my alley! Perfect Combinations!! We Absolutely enjoyed eating here! I love the Welcoming Environment, the Beautiful, Relaxing, and Friendly Atmosphere, and also the Simple Charming Decors as well!
In contrast, the restaurant service in Cupertino is more reasonable and better. Very bad experience. I arrived at the restaurant at 2: 30 in the afternoon, and they said their staff had a rest. Then I asked the waiter about the time of last call, but he didn't answer me. Just tell me I only can take out. I can understand that they think that eating alone will delay their time off work. lol
