    What I Ordered: Beef ($20.45) Korean Bean Paste ($19.98) Garlic Pork Belly ($6.41) Scallion Gravy Rice ($2.83) Pudding Sweet Milk with Boba ($6.45) Food: Boiling Point's Hot Soup is always a good old reliable for a warm bowl of soup. My personal favorite is the Beef Hot Soup, which comes with beef, fish cake, and assorted vegetables. The broth is rich and savory and you can choose to get it with either rice or vermicelli noodles. I personally get mine with rice and choose the Mild spicy level. Don't forget that at lunch you can come for cheaper prices and free tea! It was my first time getting appetizers here, but I loved my Garlic Pork Belly, which is thinly sliced pork belly with a strong and savory garlic flavor. I love wrapping some rice with the pork belly and eating it all together in one bite. Staff: All staff members were friendly and provided quick service! Ambiance: The inside of the restaurant is modern and clean. Huge parking lot that is shared with other shops in the plaza. Indoor seating only.

    My local spot for when I'm craving hot pot! I usually order the beef pot and it never disappoints. When you go around their lunch special hours you can get a free tea with your pot. The beef pot is delicious, bursting with flavors. I usually get my broth mild because it's pretty spicy. I get it with vermicelli. Service is great, staff members are super friendly, tentative, and efficient. Ambiance is nice, there's descent amount of booths and tables. There's always a wait, but they have a iPad for you to put your name on the waitlist.

    Came here craving something spicy, and this spot definitely delivered. My go-to order is the #4 Beef Hot Soup with medium spice, and I always recommend getting the beef upgrade. It's consistently good every time honestly hard to go wrong with it. The ambience is pretty average, nothing too special, but it gets the job done for a casual meal. Service was solid as well. The staff were friendly and kept checking in on us to make sure everything was good. I went when it wasn't too busy, which made the experience even smoother. Overall, a reliable spot when you're in the mood for something hot and spicy. Definitely worth checking out.

    Am I crazy for eating hot pot in 90 weather? Absolutely lol. I've been to the Boiling Point in Garden Grove many times, but this was my first visit at this location. Parking: Free parking lot. There's a large parking lot with plenty of spots. Ambiance/Environment: I really like this location because it's very spacious, unlike the GG location. They have a decent amount of indoor seating. No outdoor seating. All tables and chairs were clean. We visited during early dinner hours on a weekday, so it wasn't busy at all. More foot traffic came around 17:00-19:00. Service: Shout out to our server Jewel! She's attentive and courteous. She checked on us multiple times and refilled our waters. Throughput was also quick after ordering. Food: My go-to is the House Special or Beef. I decided to go with the Beef, mild, and rice. It came with a generous amount of protein, vegetables, and toppings. I also got rice in the side. Noodles and ramen cost extra. The soup base was very tasty with a nice kick to it. They also offered some specials like 50% off milk teas and happy hour during specific hours. Pricing: Don't forget to scan your BP points through the app. Prices have gone up over the years. It's worth it every once in a while.

    I love boiling point! I came here quite often and stacked up a lot of reward points but I honestly have not come in so long. I think it's bc I can go to Broth Shabu down the street for roughly the same price and get ayce. Before you come for me, I know that one is Taiwanese and the other is japanese, so I'm aware they're diff cuisines but to me if I'm craving for a good soup/meal, I always consider quality and bang for buck. However, I came on my birthday because they offer a free small pot + drink for guests dining in. All you need to do is show proof with valid ID and it has to be redeemed on your actual birthday. My normal go-to is the #8 Taiwanese spicy! it's a large spicy pot with ramen noodles and lots of protein (beef, pork, and some seafood). But for birthdays, only small pots are included, so I opted for the #4 beef pot. This is a very popular choice, however it was my 1st time having it. Unlike the taiwanese, the beef pot allows you to choose your spice level- I chose mild (I was recovering from a stomach bug, so I wanted to play it safe) The beef pot is very similar to the taiwanese pot imo. It has vermicelli noodles, sliced beef, fish cakes, pork ball, and some seafood. The mild spice had a little kick but nothing too crazy. It also comes with a side of noodles or rice, I just rice. I honestly thought the small size wasn't going to be enough but I ended up not even finishing it and had the rest taken home. For my drink, I was recommended the assam black tea by my server. I very much enjoyed it! There was just the right amount of sweetness to it but you can also customize how sweet you want it too. Overall I really enjoy my meals here, the service is great, and the ambiance is not too loud. I'm so grateful that BP offers this birthday freebie, it's a nice way to treat ourselves on our special day!

    BIRTHDAY MONTH=BIRTHDAY COUPONS=HAPPY RODNEY Free hot pot & drink on your actual birthday Lunch orders include drink of choice Taiwanese Spicy- I am never ordering this againg! Mala (Hot)! As I've become older, my heat tolerance has slowly dwindled down from what it once was. Pondering between the Taiwanese Spicy & The Hot Green soup, I was told the Taiwanese Spicy cannot be adjusted for heat, but the Hot Green can. Believing I'm muy macho, and hearing from a fellow customer in line that her favorite is the Taiwanese Spicy, I figured I'd go for it. Yikes! My mouth immediately numbed and eating became a challenge. I had the staff add more broth to dilute, and it only slightly became less difficult to consume. The Taiwanese Spicy was good, loaded with protein. After finishing most of the ingredients sans broth & some vegetables, my mouth started find relief from the heat. Deciding upon having a couple spoonfuls of broth for the LOL's, I immediately felt the pain in my nose and starting coughing. Whew! Hokkaido boba milk tea & jasmine green tea- Lunch orderes come w/ drink of choice, and the birthday promo also includes a drink, hence two free drinks. I wish I could've said I savored these drinks, but I finished these right away, to alleviate some of the punishing burn from the broth. Refreshing, though. Service was excellent. Showing the staff my ID to show it was birthday, they were friendly, hospitable & quick with service. Boiling Point, you are locked in as my birthday destination spot for some nourishing hot pot action in the midst of the August heat wave. I wish I knew about BP's birthday promo sooner, as I would've taken advantage of this wonderful deal numerous times, already.

    We came here to celebrate my bf's birthday. They still offer the free birthday hot pot. I got the beef hot pot. Food still delicious. I love the winter melon tea. Service was good. We upgraded the tie with mince pork and extra side of beef. Overall, it's a nice way to celebrate a birthday.

    Just like any other locations, this place also gets packed. I did notice the wait times weren't too bad though. The food is still good and the ambiance is lively. The only thing is that the service is so low. We sat down for a good 10 minutes and no one came to take our order and had to flag them down.

    Easy eats hot pot in a strip mall. Was sat immediately for a weekday dinner. Place was clean - your typical boiling point. Took a bit to place an order and we were pretty hungry. Received our food - was pretty good. I drink a bit of water and needed to call the waiter back often for refills. Would come back for an easy soup.

    My Asian parents love coming here for special events!! I got the # 6 Milk Cream Curry Hot Soup with a mild spice level. The soup is served with a fire underneath, but you can ask if you want the fire turned off anytime. The soup was not too spicy, and it tasted great! There was plenty of meat and vegetables, and there are vermicelli noodles at the bottom that are easy to forget. I got my soup with a small bowl of rice, and it was the perfect amount to finish the soup. The employees are super kind and very attentive. We tried to put ourselves on the waiting list on the tablet in the front of the restaurant, and an employee noticed my sister and I and sat us right away. The employees and the trainee would constantly refill our waters, check in on us, and ask if we needed anything. They also said goodbye to us when we left. The restaurant is placed in a huge parking lot so there should be no trouble finding parking. The restaurant isn't very big, it's kind of small. However, the restaurant is very clean and bright. If you have family members that hate dark restaurants, bring them here. I would come here again and continue to order the # 6 Milk Cream Curry Hot Soup. It's just become my go-to order at Boiling Point

    It's been sooooo long since I've had BP. I always go to Ranch but didn't know this was even here. We went to eat on a Sunday around 7:30pm. No online waitlist so you just write your name and party size on the clipboard. It took us about 20 mins to get seated. Come early to skip the line, or grab boba nearby because it could take a while. There was a new flavor that came out. Talked to the waitress about it, tried it, and didn't like it. It's the green pepper one where it's ma la spicy. I hate that taste. I didn't ask to switch it out or anything, but what helped out was when the staff would come around and refill your broth. That helped dilute it and made it edible for me. Next time I'll order something else.

    #4 Beef Hot Soup with iced green tea (Lunch)
    Ashley V.

    My absolute go to restaurant for hot pot! I always go for the beef with a meat lover upgrade, as well as a side of spicy tangy beef. I love that there's a good mix of meat, vegetables, fish cakes, and noodles in the hot pot. Their spice levels are somewhat inconsistent each time you go, so I usually just opt for no spice and just add the chili oil myself. I love that when it's lunch hours, from 11am to 3pm, you can get a free green or black tea with each hot pot order. Otherwise, if I go for dinner, I get an amber oolong milk tea with boba. The milk tea itself is pretty light and creamy, which is perfect when paired with the beef hot pot. Service can be a hit or miss at this location. Lately, I've been going at night around 7 to 8 pm and this last visit took around 30 minutes before we got seated. There were at least 3 to 4 tables open around the 15 to 20 minute mark of waiting, but no server wanted to seat us just yet. I do appreciate that as soon as we got seated that a server asked us if we were ready to order. This time around, the food didn't take as long to come out-- maybe around less than 10 minutes. Sometimes, I personally have to flag down the servers for water refills or to turn off the fire for the hot pot. Other times, servers or trainees are consistently coming around to ask if anything is needed. I do wish that the service was a little more consistent, but coming from experience in the food industry, I understand that it can get busy at times. The ambiance is pretty nice with bright lights and good music. Sometimes, they play R&B, which I love. Overall, I would recommend boiling point to satisfy your hot pot cravings! The food and the drinks never miss!

    Do u have a private room for 12-15 people?

    They do not. The restaurant itself is not very large. Accommodating 12-15 in general might be difficult.

    Do you accept reservations?

    They do not accept reservations! They have a tablet in the front of the restaurant that you must check-in on to put yourself on the waiting list.

    Is this location open today (December 26, 2022? I called, but got a machine both times.

    Do u have outside seating? Are let's allowed?

    There's no outdoor seating. And pets are not allowed.

    Haven't been here for a while now. Do we need to make a reservation ahead? Or when we get there, do we just get a number?

    First come first serve, as I don't see a Yelp check in option. I went here on a Thursday around 7pm.. and the wait was about 1hr and 10 mins

    Been calling on 3 different days to place a phone order, but no answer. Are they closed?

    No they just suck at answering their phone

    Why isn't the prices on your website? Or did I just not see it? Is there a reason why?

    Prices are always being raised. Probably less work for them to not put a set price.

    What's time they openon weekend?

    We are open every day 11am-11pm!

    Can you substitute the meat broth for veggie or miso broth for all the items?

    Hey maybe this is a stupid questions because I've never been.. but can you take it to go?

    Hi Jen, yes we offer to go orders!

    Can 2 people share a large pot?

    You technically can but it really wouldnt be enough food for 2 adults in my opinion

    Do they have a vegetarian broth option?

    They have a vegetable soup with clear broth. That is only option.

    What's their most popular item?

    Beef pot is their most popular one.

It includes access to the Australian wagyu, unlimited meats and sides, plus a one-time seafood & sashimi platter and a specialty dish. Even though the seafood & sashimi platter is limited to one order, the portion is huge and more than enough for the table. For my specialty dish, I chose the bone marrow and WOW.

The flavor of the broth was decently strong, not the spiciest I've had but not the weakest. It was quite filling for the both of us and adding the noodles towards the end helped fill up the pot overall. The interior of the restaurant has plenty of seating with booths and tables.

The workers are nice and apologetic but it wasn't even that busy when we arrived and our food didn't come out for a while after ordering. I ordered my usual regular toro with the marinade. The rice and veggies are still refillable. The soup base is additional (including the regular soup which is so odd to me because it's basically just water). The rice was mushy. The ponzu and goma sauces were not the same as I remembered it.
