So good!!!!!!!! Great service and excellent food, highly recommend! We went at 5pm and there was no wait.

The services was amazing as well as the food. I really appreciate the servers helping me when they saw me struggling with messy hands. The orders come relatively quickly. The place is very esthetically pleasing. We paid cash and they offer drinks to take it to go. read more

Pricey but super super fresh food. All the seafood tasted so fresh. The beef dishes were very good. $60 per person but they don't have grilling available. Loved that there is durian available as dessert at the end. read more

We went here on a whim to try. The place smells like very much like cooked seafood there why they place your jackets in a plastic bag. It is all you can eat for $58 per person and if your kid is under a certain height, they are free. My kid really wanted to eat scallops and the wasn't the choice they had there, but they had abalone, lol. You had a special choice of a lobster or sea cucumber for the table. You had 2 choices of broth. There was a BBQ grill on the table but I guess that is not part of the AYCE? You self serve the sauces and drinks. The drinks are a can of sodas, Chinese herbal tea and others. You are not allowed to take the drink leaving the restaurant because they will charge you $3 as a "take out." Like most all you can eat hot pot places these days is that you order from a tablet, submit your order in, then they bring it. But the problem is, it kept asking us for a pin so regardless you had to call someone over to take the order for you. This is what really took down a notch. If you pay cash, you will get free bubble tea for each person at the table. The problem is, the waiter came back and kept double tapping for the suggested tip amount which I didn't like, however, I was generous and actually gave more. So if the tablet would have worked and had a little more section in seafood then my rating would be different. Place was poppin but I tried it once, I don't think I'll go here again unless I was dragged to go. read more

Chongqing Wharf Edison - Terrible service rude not on time ! And and turned me away as paying customer for wanting to dine by myself ! - Barbeque Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Most of the seafood here comes out fresh (was live before arriving to our table to the point that's own shrimps we're still jumping and the lobster still moving a bit). Some pricier seafoods that's an option here that's unavailable anywhere else. My personal fav are the bombiil fish as it has smooth meat, swimming shrimps, etc. Loved that they had AYCE durian (ripe too)! On the occasions they don't have it, they'll substitute it with other goodies like a young coconuts for everyone (1 each) to drink. Excellent service: they're on top of changing plates giving you new ones! Servers also proactively come around to scoop soup scum, add more broth, clear dirty/ empty plates, without being asked. You can request for plastic bibs to protect clothes. When we choose 2 soups, we ask for an extra set of utensils plus the inside strainer box. Coffee ice cream cups (in addition to other flavors)! read more

The wait was extremely long--we waited over 1.5 hours and almost gave up. The AYCE prices include lobster, drinks, and ice cream. This place offers a wider seafood selection than other hotpot spots, and the service was great. However, I don't think the experience is worth such a long wait. read more

Fresh seafood and wonderful service. The staff is super attentive. The music is chilled. The stations are super clean. The food hit the spot. Nice spot to bring a date. read more

TOTAL SCAM! LIARS AND CHEATS! They say its Korean bbq and Hotpot, for $65 but when you sit down, you find out the whole bbq half of the experience/food is a LIE and you are paying $65 for Hotpot which is $36 tops anywhere else. TOTAL RIPOFF! RUINED NEW YEARS EVE!​ read more

A hot pot place that is definitely on the pricier side, but I do feel that you get what you pay for here! The type and quality of seafood here is unique from what I've seen in hot pot places around Edison and more similar to some of the crazy places I've seen in Brooklyn/NYC. I think the higher price allows for there to be less of wait here as well, as I noticed that we were seated fairly quickly and it is not overly crowded here. A nice perk is that drinks are included in your AYCE price and as a soy milk and snapple tea lover, that was great! There are two separate containers, so you get to pick 2 different soup bases. The decor of the restaurant is very modern and clean, however it can be a bit cold, so be sure to bring a jacket/hoodie. The heat from the hot pot does help eventually. Service was very prompt, the only downside is that you need your waiter to manually approve each order you put in. read more

Great service and clean hot pot restaurant. Fresh seafood and plenty of selection. Free lobsters for our table of 6!

Went with our friends to our all time favorite place for the best ayce seafood buffet. So Fresh and delicious. Love the sashimi, raw oysters and so many choices of seafood for hotpot. Also the staff are so attentive and provide excellent services. The place is very clean. read more

I rsvp before I travel over to the place and when I wait 50 mins and seeing people of 4 or 5 non stopping going in. Then I went to the cashier and the girl said yes they are going in when I'm on was been waiting as the first inline the last 30 minutes. They told i will be next but I still seeing people going in. They don't follow by their waiting list. Be honest I think they just letting friends go in. After one hour of waiting, we seat. The food is fresh that's why I give 2 stars. read more

Sashimi and seafood are fresh! Lobster nice! Very food service! Though slightly expensive. Its a nice choice

recently had the pleasure of dining at Chongqing Wharf, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience. As a fan of hot pot, I have visited many places, but Chongqing Wharf stands out for several reasons. Ambiance and Atmosphere: The restaurant boasts a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. The decor is a blend of modern and traditional Chinese elements, which creates a cozy and authentic dining environment. The seating is comfortable, and the tables are spacious enough to accommodate the hot pot setup and all the accompanying dishes. Variety and Quality of Ingredients: Chongqing Wharf offers an impressive variety of ingredients for their hot pot. From fresh vegetables and a wide range of meats to seafood and unique specialty items, there is something for everyone. The ingredients are always fresh and of high quality, ensuring a delicious and satisfying meal. read more

I won't lie, I hesitated for awhile vistibg here because it was $$$ but my friend had invited me to try and boy, it was worth every single penny. We were greeted with warmth and everyone was super friendly and accommodating. The place looked super clean and they had offer a lot of things that took me by surprise. It's really the little things that count like the hair tie they ask if we needed before we start grubbing and we each got a fresh coconut to drink out of. I was told each table had a complimentary crab or lobster which was amazingly great. Their menu was super extensive to the point where we wanted to try everything! They even had raw marinated crab, blue crab, fresh oysters and a bunch of seafood that's not offer anywhere else in hotpot places in NJ. They had a full sauce bar and a refridgerated shelf full of different sorts of drinks. The service was on point and our waiter even offered to peel our shrimp. I would give this place 10 stars if Yelp would allow! If you are a seafood lover, THIS IS YOUR PLACE. Forget about the seafood boil places. This is much more worth the time and money. I would def come back (don't be surprise if I come back in another week lol) read more

Best ayce hot pot experience. $59 per person but worth every penny. Live shrimp, nice cut of beef, the quality is amazing. You also get free lobster. I will def be back. read more

The food was extremely good and the service was top tier. I would definitely recommend you visit and have the salmon sashimi.

Great food choice, price is reasonable for the food choice and quality. Price is on the expensive side which means there is usually no wait time andparty of 6 can be seated almost immediately. Kid price is actually much cheaper (for 6 yr old) compared to other AYCE places (which is usually at half price). So overall with 2 adults and 2 kids, your price comes out similar to other cheaper AYCE places (since you save on kid prices here). Service is great. You are not tied to just one server, which makes it convenient to get help. Food is ordered through the ipad and arrives very fast. AYCE includes unlimited soda cans and water. Tons of sashimi, the quality is very fresh. There is plenty of sauce choices for hot pot meat. The noise level is on the loud level, but this is a buffer, so it's acceptable. read more

Went here for the first time after hearing about it and seeing about in ads on ig. I know for sure this place would be a long wait so thankfully I searched tren up on google and you can put yourself onto the waiting list. I work 23 mins away so I put myself on the waiting list for a party of 6 and there was 6 parties before me, once I arrived I checked again and it was only 2 parties ahead of me, I only waited for about 10-15 mins and my party was next. We sat in section C5 and our server name is Andy! He's sooo funnny and provides good service. Fresh ingredients for hotpot, you get your own personal fresh coconut with a straw in it, this place is byob, the sauce bar has a lot of options and you get your beverage tooo. The desert menu has 3 different desserts and they're all good! Fresh oysters, mantis shrimp! The homemade dragonfruit fish paste I think or shrimp is gooood! Sashimi white tuna is soooooo goood, all sashimi is good! Andy is awesome lol I would request to be in his section again for sure! read more

Came back again today. We opted for a more seafood based meal. But we still ordered the standard pork belly and fatty beef. This time around we ordered the Alaskan shrimp (with shrimp roe), snow crab legs, stone crabs... and the famous Spanish red prawns! They definitely didn't disappoint! read more

Lets first start with the high price point of $58 pp, every 2 people gets a free lobster or sea cucumber upon sitting. The service was fantastic and place was clean and organized. It was interesting to have sashimi and hotpot at the same time and the seafood was fresh. The hotpot soup bases were a miss for me unfortunately, as there wasnt even a mala option...its def a place to try once to see what the hype is about, but i wouldnt return again due to the high price point. read more

Good quality of seafood, attentive service, premium atmosphere compared to other hot pot places! Must try if you like seafood and hot pot

Went here for Valentine's Day so the wait was over an hour long. The waiting area can get cold if you go in the winter. We got the golden soup and the hot butter base soup. IMO the spicy soup was wayyyy too spicy but to each their own. Additionally, both soups lacked good flavor and I had to add salt to them to better the taste. We were served a whole lobster and had access to unlimited canned drinks. There is an abundant sauce bar and a wide variety of seafood and meats. I wish they had a wider selection of vegetables to choose from. You order all your food through a tablet but you need the servers permission to actually send the order in which is a bit annoying. The service itself was ok, nothing to write home about. Lastly the deserts were meh. It is more expensive than happy lamb and provides more lux options but overall it just doesn't hit like others. read more

This was our first experience with Hot Pot. Our server was very helpful. He explained the whole process to us and helped us order. We tried some new foods and had a great time. We will definitely be back! read more

Fresh, fresh food! AYCE but expensive. At $59pp it's difficult to eat your money's worth with the time limit. Service is always great. My family of 5 have been to this location 10 times since they opened. No complaints except last we got rushed out. read more

Super high-quality AYCE. It's very similar to 37 Xiang in flushing, but I think this place is slightly better.

All you can eat hot pot (they are not offering bbq) and all you can drink (various soda and bottled water). No wait on a Saturday night. Premium ingredients and premium prices (adults $54, kids $29 if 1.2m-1.5m tall). Very fresh and delicious food. Excellent choices of soup bases (two per table). Currently they give one free lobster per table as promotion. You order your food on an iPad. Service is prompt and excellent. They will give you a plastic bag to put your jackets and valuables in so they don't smell like hot pot afterwards (but you will!) read more

Chongqing Wharf Edison - a variety of food items - Barbeque Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Food was very fresh and we got the complimentary lobsters. The service was superb and we were well taken care of. The waitress placed our coats in bags so they wouldn't absorb the smell and offered fresh plates as well as periodically skimming our soup and refilling as needed. The only disappointment was the peach juice that everyone loved was nowhere to be seen. read more

The word of mouth for this new All You Can Eat Hot Pot and Barbecue joint is nothing but impressive therefore the average wait time is 1-2 hours in the first 2 weeks of grand opening. It's a clean and modern setup with a quick turnover so typically it's quicker than you think. Everything is digital/ tablet oriented so you get a text when your table is ready and self order with a tablet. No food wasting though cuz that's gonna cost you. All your standard broth you'll find in a AYCE hotpot joint and very strong in flavor (better than K Pot) The best seafood - lobster, variety of crabs, variety of shrimp etc. The Mantis shrimp is alive by the way, cruel but fresh. All the meat and veggie you love/find from a hotpot place. Unlimited drinks - sodas, peach drink with pulp (must try), soybeans milk, herbal teas (hotpot staple) etc. Unlimited dipping sauce of your own creation. Durian for desserts, anyone? All that good stuff mentioned and we can't talk about the BBQ side. Not available yet due to township permit issues so imagine when all is available to feast for $54 per adult. 2 hour dining limit but It's an absolute bargain in today's economy. By the way they're related to Hot Space Grilled Fish down the road. read more

I am so disappointed with this, I saw on TikTok that every thing look good but when I came, food wasn't good. They were out of so many things. It's not worth 59$ per person, won't recommend. read more
