We had a chance to visit 912 Korean BBQ and hot pot last weekend. We were looking for something casual but filling for dinner and because we had not tried out this place yet but had driven by several times, we decided to check it out. Definitely a great decision on a hunch. This is an all you can eat hot pot concept and frankly my first time attending this version. While I have visited hibachi restaurants in the past, this is not that. Basically this is a dual table side prep concept where you can either make your own custom soups and broths, and hot pot seafood or you can select the grill and grill of a variety of fresh meats and fish and vegetables, or you can get both. Both come with a small dessert bar and seem to be accompanied with the additional Fresh salad and sauce bar, although I'm not quite sure if one of those may have been restricted if you did the grill only or the hot pot only. Pricing is pretty fair at about $30 a person which rises to mid 30s if you decide to get both options. We went with the combo because we had never tried this concept before, but in the future, I may lean more towards the grill option only. Especially if I'm not in the mood for hot pot or soup. But I definitely enjoyed the combination choice for our first visit. The meat and vegetable selections at this restaurant are pretty vast and this is after the server first sets you up and allows you to pick from several different types of broth for your hot pot. In addition, they have a sauce bar that must've had 20+ sauces available to choose from. I think one of the most overwhelming aspects of this concept is lack of familiarity with the right combinations of hot pot and grilled options. For this we leaned heavily on our server and she did a great job of guiding us through a couple of her favorite combinations, as well as some of the favorite combinations of other patrons. This was really helpful because there isn't a menu or chart to help you unlock all of the really cool combinations that you can put together including Ramen udon and Thai soup varieties. All of the ingredients you need to make any of those dishes, but in your own customize version, are here to your heart's desire. Service is really good as they do switch out the grills rather rapidly as they will get charred and start to burn and smoke after three or four rounds of fresh meats and veggies slapped on them. However, they do not switch out your broth choice so once you make your choice, that's what you're rolling with for the rest of the dinner. All in all we were really satisfied with the freshness and the preparation of most of the ingredients and sauces. I did think the dessert bar was a little weak given the multitude of options elsewhere, but I also understand that this is consistent with the cultural preferences, which don't skew as heavy on traditional sweets, like American taste do. All in all this is definitely a treat for those looking for a great date night or just looking to take the family out for a really engaging and tasty cook at your table experience - all you can eat style! read more

Had a wonderful experience here! The variety of options was impressive, and the service was great from start to finish. The ambiance was quiet and really enjoyable--perfect for a relaxed meal. The broth could use a bit more flavor overall, but the spicy one was definitely the standout. I'd absolutely come back and explore more of the menu! read more

Excellent food and service. Enjoy going here all the time. Good variety of selections.

This place is awesome! Georgia has a gem in this restaurant. Right off the 95, close to Savannah, is a Korean Hot Pot Buffet that knocks trendy KPOTS off their thrones. I wish this place was franchising in my area. The food is serve yourself, cook yourself and there are so many options, you will miss 50%. We ordered the Hot Pot and Grill because there's only a couple dollars difference. They have quite a lot of flavors, and I was informed none contained MSG. (I hope that's true) The prices are some of the cheapest I have seen, for the quality of food available. Guys, here is the best part, after we grilled our first round of meat, they actually changed out our grill. That has never happened. Not even in Korea! Can you please franchise in Virginia???There was a line on a Saturday at 3pm but we were seated and beginning to eat within 25 minutes. Could there be any negatives here? Not with the food or service... however... they make up a lot of profit in drinks. Soju is 17.00 a bottle and a lemonade was 7.99. Probably not the place you want to order drinks, unless it's a special occasion. Other than that, this will be our new stop by when traveling through. Absolutely amazing service and quality. read more

I have been told by multiple people that I needed to come here. Well I got the perfect opportunity! This place was huge! They had plenty of seating and spacious area for cooking. I was shocked how many options they had for everything! I started with the appetizer including oysters and crab legs which were really good. When it came to the bbq and the soup options it was seriously endless! You could pick from seafood to meat. I ended up getting lamb and salmon for my main course with ramen noodles. For my soup broth I got the pork. It was really creamy and delicious! The staff was really helpful and so knowledgeable! read more

912 hot pot is a really cute place to have either an intimate dinner or a birthday gathering between friends. I have also been for a graduation party and their large party room was a really nice addition for a large group of people. They have a lot of different options on their food bar and so many different additions for the hot pot option. For myself, I only need the food bar, because the hot pot included is just way too much food for me. I think for the price I believe it's like $30 for just the barbecue is more than worth it being that you have so many different meats to choose from probably anywhere from 25 to 50, including the different sauces and the different side dishes that are available. I always leave super full when I'm here and I'm stuffed for a long period of time. The customer service is always really good and they're not very pushy. They also do a really good job keeping the place clean, including the bathroom areas. read more

The ambiance is a big hectic. The place is huge and there is people going back and forth to the food area. You choose a hot pot or a BBQ, or both but if you order both you pay double. If you order BBQ and your partner hot pot, you can't share. Eat what you could eat only! They will charge you $5 extra for every 100 grams of leftover food. The service was good, the servers are here, there and everywhere so it was a bit difficult to get a hold of our great server Rose. The food was super fresh and we enjoyed our first experience here. read more

Great staff! Our waiter made the best sauce spicy with peanuts sooo good! The selection was huge and even desert was more than I could count! 100000/10 recommend!! read more

912 Korean BBQ & Hotpot - New to this. We thought the experience was great. - Hot Pot Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

The ambience is very modern and classy. I really like the open concept of the restaurant. I always go for the spicy Szechuan broth and I always make sure to load up on plenty of steak and veggies. The dumplings are also very good too, and there is plenty of staff, so service is very quick. I recommend the classic 912 sauce at the sauce bar, it's a little on the spicy side, but you can tune it to your preference. Very solid hot pot will be returning. read more

Love this place! The all you can eat is great for the price and the meat quality is top notch. Me and my friend always leave stuffed and satisfied lol. The spicy pork belly is definitely my favorite. The service is really good, they check on you very frequently so they can change out of the grill for a new one whenever you need it. Another great addition to Pooler, no doubt me and my friend will be eating here frequently. read more

If anyone's super excited about this opening up, it's ME! I'm a Korean food fanatic and I've been waiting for a place like this. We visited with a large party of 5 and a baby during their "soft opening". The restaurant is spacious and very clean upon entry. We were the first ones to be sat and were placed in the back. It was nice to be able to have private seating, or what felt like it. Our waitress was an absolute SWEETHEART! She was attentive and very friendly. My baby was making a mess of rice and we constantly tried to clean it up and she wouldn't let us. The entire time she was just amazing. You pay roughly $35.99 for both hot pot and KBBQ- unlimited!! Of course we got this around the table. They have prepared broths and different flavors for you to choose from. They have a buffet style of meats, and veggies that you can choose from. The quality appeared to be good and the restaurant was very clean. As it started filling up the Buffet area got a little hard to get into but no issues, we just waited our turn. You can stay for 2 hours from when you arrived and fill up as much as you can. I really enjoyed my time here. FINAL VERDICT: Do yourself a favor and come try this place! This is a one of its own kind here in pooler and I'm very excited to watch this business grow! They know exactly what they're doing! read more

The service here was excellent! It was friendly and efficient. There are lots of options for both hot pot and BBQ. I did find it a little loud in there, but we still enjoyed our time. I found the price reasonable for what is available! They do a good job of keeping the food stocked. read more

10/10 the food was great, lots of options at the buffet, they constantly bring our fresh meat as everyone eats is so fast, but they are on top of it and your favorite choice will quickly be put back out before you even sit down. Our waiter was great at checking in and being accommodating when one if us was going to be late. The restaurant itself can be noisy and it's hard to have any serious conversation but I personally like the atmosphere of a busy and fun restaurant that is clearly well liked. Highly recommend read more

Way over priced! Just couldn't believe the almost $300.00 bill for 4 adults and no alcohol purchased. It's a buffet so service was minimal but good. Plenty to select from at buffet. Atmosphere was loud & hot from all the table cooking. At times it got smoky and burned the eyes. The cost didn't equal to the food. At their prices it's a ONE TIME visit. read more

The restaurant is always very packed and kind of noisy. The service is really good for the amount of people. The food here is what you make it because you cook it yourself. read more

Always a fun experience here. I can't cook but I make it work. I wish the cooker knobs were a little easier to understand. The arrows don't seem to mean too much but the waitresses are always willing to help. The amount of fresh meats and ingredients available is unbelievable. read more

Wow wow wow!!! I was completely blown away by this new spot in Pooler!!! It's sooooo good, I highly suggest doing the Korean BBQ one day and the Hot Pot the next, it's such a fun experience.

The customer service was dynamic, especially considering the size of our party, The whole vibe here is just different I really hope this restaurant stays in Pooler read more

First time eating at 912. Absolutely loved it! This reminded me of another kbbq place I went to while at college. Been looking for a while to find a similar restaurant and so happy to have gone to 912! I recommend the Thai tea for beverage! Wonderful wait staff, very open and chic feel to the restaurant. Miss kbbq where I could cook the food. Never did a hotpot, so definitely a fun experience! Was my dad's and our family friend's first time to a kbbq where you could cook you own food. They also found it to be such an amazing experience! Definitely will come back. Came out the whole thing fat and happy! read more

912 Korean BBQ & Hotpot - Had a wonderful dinner with my father and family friend! - Hot Pot Near Me - Pooler, Georgia

Recently opened restaurant in Pooler. You don't get that vibe of it being new though. Our dining experience was pleasant so we felt like they trained the staff well. We arrived around 7:00ish on a Thursday evening and were prepared to wait. To our surprise, we were seated right away. The restaurant is big, so plenty of booths and there is even a little semi private room for larger parties. 3 out of 4 of us did both the hot pot and bbq for 34.99. There were endless options at the fresh/raw buffet area. I only had the bbq and throughly enjoyed the beef options. We also had the best server. She was attentive and very sweet. read more

It was my first time to visit restaurant like this. It was interesting and I did enjoy the experience. You cook your own food at your tables, different types of soups you can choose from to cook different types of dishes. Service was very good, was checked on repeatedly. Atmosphere was great, groups , couples, and families. Will I be back, possibly, the cost is a big factor it is pricey to me. It was a great experience. I give three stars mostly due to price. read more

Everything is amazing! I'm from Cali and THEY KNOW KBBQ! This place combines my favorite stops all in one. 912 has great Shabu and KBBQ options and the portions are self serve. Wonderful sauce station with so much to choose from. Superb taste, variety, and even an ice cream station. Outstanding! read more

Love this place! Definitely get a bang for your buck with all you can eat. Food always tastes very fresh and reasonably. Great for families, celebrations and more. Love the hot pot and bbq options. I would have preferred servers ask if you've ever done hot pot or bbq before to walk you through the process because I had no clue what I was doing the first time and asked a lot of questions lol but it all worked out in the end and I enjoyed my experience and have recommended to family and friends since. read more

Pulling up to this restaurant is great because there is a lot of parking. When you walk in,the decor at the entrance is inviting and nice! The decor throughout the restaurant is nice. Inside is also very big with so many booths and tables. As soon as we sat down, we were greeted by our waitress who explained how the process works. You can choose to just do bbq, hotpot or both! I chose both! We ordered Soju for the table. I decided to go with the Tai Tom Yum soup base. We were told that we can go up and get what we wanted. The variety of meat and seafood was amazing! They were all also seasoned to perfection but you can add seasoning because they have a station for that as well. The meat varies from chicken, to steak, to pork to quail eggs and so much more! They have seafood from salmon, shrimp, clams, squid and octopus and so much more. They have a variety of sauces and vegetables. They also have an area with ice cream and the cookies and cream flavor was delicious! I loved doing both hotpot and bbq because you have your own personal pot you can control the temperature that is located on the table. Also the price is reasonable and you get a 2 hour limit. Our waitress was great! She was attentive and taking the plates we no longer needed. She also changed our grill when she saw that it needed to be changed and she changed it like a pro! We are planning our second visit right now! read more

The food was amazing. The only thing that bothered me was space. There is too much space to get around.

This place is amazing! We drive over an hour on special occasions to go. Very clean. So much choice.

Little bit expensive for hot pot ayce. The food quality could be better. I would still go but not expecting 5 star quality. read more
