老九门火锅旗舰店laojiumen hotpot 9

I was excited to try Hot Pot 9 with my friends and our kids. The interior and ambiance were stunning, and they currently offer a great deal: $30 per person on weekdays and $32 on weekends and holidays. They also have a fair policy of charging 60% for kids aged 12 and under, and our 5-year-old ate for free, which was fantastic for parents!nnThere were 9 of us, with several kids, and we were welcomed with two soup bases of our choice—tomato and spicy broth. The menu was accessible via a QR code on our phones, offering a wide selection. However, it was confusing as every order remained in a pending status, and we could all add items at the same time, making it difficult to confirm if our selections were processed.nnInitially, the food came promptly, but as we neared the last half-hour of our two-hour seating, my pumpkin dessert, popsicles, and pork belly never arrived. We placed these orders when they announced last call and handed us the bill, subtly signaling the end of our meal. After following up, we finally received the pork belly, but the popsicles never came. We weren’t notified of any cancellation or given a reason.nnAdditionally, the lack of air conditioning made the experience uncomfortable, as we were all sweating and losing our appetite. The service slowed down toward the end, and we felt rushed, unable to fully enjoy the last part of our meal.nnWhile the food and setup were impressive, the poor service and treatment were disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend this place unless there's a change in management.

Came here for their $29.99 deal. Not bad at all. They had good food selection. Beef and most other ingredients were of good quality. Soup base was flavorful and came at no extra charge. The friend chicken wings were surprisingly good. Service was good enough. The restaurant could be a little more clean. A few things felt kind of sticky. I liked it and would recommend.

We’ve visited numerous hotpot spots in the GTA, but this one truly stands out with its stunning ambiance and beautifully themed Chinese décor. We took advantage of their summer promotion, and both the food and service were exceptional. The meats were incredibly fresh, and the crispy chicken was absolutely delicious. The spicy broth, while not overly spicy, was packed with flavor, and we also tried the coconut-flavored broth, which had a mild sweetness, reminiscent of coconut water. Service was prompt and attentive. Parking is free, with plenty of spots available just across from the restaurant. You’ll need to tap your credit card to enter the parking lot, but the staff can validate it for you later. We’re already looking forward to returning in the winter!

I recently dined at a fantastic hot pot restaurant, and it exceeded all expectations! The ambiance was inviting, with a modern yet cozy decor. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring our experience was top-notch. The variety of fresh ingredients, from tender meats to crisp vegetables, was impressive, and the broth was flavorful and aromatic. Each bite was a delight, and the interactive nature of hot pot dining made it a fun and engaging meal. The dipping sauces added an extra layer of flavor, making every bite unique. Highly recommend for an unforgettable dining experience!

Price wise it's a great deal for the Happy Summer all inclusive at $29.99 where the competition usually offers that for late night only. However, the past two visits at this restaurant has been rather uncomfortable as they either have no a/c/ventilation system or it's just been down. It's like walking into a sauna each time, which forces to you to keep drinking and hence filling you up. Both Daimaru and Haidilao don't have these issues as their temperature setting is just right. The overall atmosphere is very unique and nice and probably the best compared to the other hotpot establishments. The quality of food, especially the beef and pork has been hit or miss. Usually the first serving looks fantastic, however when you reorder the cuts of meat appear to be of lower quality and inconsistent with the first serving. Quality control seems to be non evident as we were served meat that was 90% fat on several occasions which we had to return back. The condiment area has a wide selection of sauces, fruits and desserts, however they need to do a better job of replenishing items as well as keeping the area clean. Similar to what many other reviewers have mentioned, there are a lot of fruit flies buzzing around.
