100 Degrees

The serving area and seating areas are crowded and difficult to navigate. There is a nice selection of broths. I picked Thai tom yum, which was flavorful and sour, like it should be! My groups was seated in what appeared to be an extension into the side alley. We had individual pots and burners, which allowed us to cater to our individual tastes. Other tables shared large pots and burners. Selection of meats, veggies, seafood, noodles for the hot pot was great. Tongs are shared for just about everything, so those with allergies or dietary restrictions should avoid. Hot pot aside, there are steamed food, stir fries, and rice available on the side. Ice pops and ice cream is also in a little freezer. Soft drinks are included: sweet teas, canned sodas, juice, coffee, and hot tea. I don't know if they offered plain still water; it was not obvious if so. Would I go again? Maybe if the group was up for it. Overall, I'd probably pass and eat elsewhere. Warning: chili oil was HOT. I thought I had a decent tolerance for spice, but I ended up with chapped lips from that oil.
