Took myself here for Valentine's Day 23'. I was so excited to find an authentic Chinese place in Miami, finally! I was so tired of all the Asian-fusion ish places in FL. I got some dishes along with hot pot, mixed my fav sauce at their sauce bar. I think the total was a bit more expensive (120$+ for just myself). I did had 2 lychee martinis, and I'd have to agree with other reviews, the drinks are probably some of the worst I've ever had. However, I think the food is decent although not the best value compare to the value. But I'm glad to finally have an authentic Chinese place in Mia! read more

I'm so happy I had the chance to dine here during my Miami trip!! I haven't had such delicious and fresh hotpot in so long. The portions are generous, the meat is SO fresh (I highly recommend the ribeye) and the flavors are authentic. The decor is super Chinese hahaha and the servers are helpful! read more

Quality meat. Good noodles. 6 choices of flavorful soup base. Great service. Love how safe the pots are installed and used, especially for young kids. Nice decor throughout the place with well used space. Restrooms are not inside the restaurant which actually might be a good thing. Huge TV in public space and each VIP dining room has its own TV for karaoke. Price is also reasonable given the area. Love. 5 stars well deserved. read more

Da Tang Zhen Wei - Quality dishes + 6 choices of soup base - Chinese Near Me - Miami, Florida

This place is the closest thing I've had to authentic Chinese food in the area. I'm sure due to the ethnic differences in Miami they had to hold back and Americanize their cuisine. Besides all that the food I had was nice for the area. The pork knuckles and lamb skewers stood out the most because they reminded me of home. Service was very good and friendly. read more

I cannot express how amazing this place is. The food is delicious, the service was phenomenal and the ambiance was fantastic. We ordered Peking Duck, the hot pots and a little bit of everything with them. I had the pork broth and it was really good.

I can't believe I found an authentic Chinese hotpot joint in... MIAMI?!? Wife and I were in need of some comfort food (e.g. soup) after a day of boating & snorkeling which can make you a bit queasy, and we stumbled upon this unlikely place, and so fortunate we were! Having eaten at the most authentic hotpot places in Beijing, et al. I can tell you that DTZW is legit. Not only did they have fresh ingredient & multiple soup styles to choose from (beef, chicken, mushroom, herbal, etc. it was great!), they also had a nice dipping sauce bar with soy sauce, oyster sauce, XO sauce, chili oil, cilantro, scallions, sesame sauce, etc. I created my awesome sauce (seen in pic below), one for veggie and one for meat. We ordered the beef broth and for veggie, we got the veggie combo and king trumpet mushroom. The combo gives you a pretty good portion of varied veggies so I recommend that. For protein, we got fatty beef (a must for hotpots in my opinion), their outstanding shrimp ball (they handcraft all their meatballs), fillet of flounder, and dried bean curd. All were good but I especially enjoyed the shrimp balls and flounder. We really enjoyed dipping these fresh ingredients into my dipping sauces! Also - don't forget to get the noodles! We got the ramen noodles and they were just the right amount of chewy & sauce-absorption action that filled out stomach with goodness. Tip - don't get the potato? noodle - that's the slippery and clear stuff which isn't as chewy nor soup-absorbing, unless that's your thang. The wonder doesn't end there - I really wanted to order a Ganguo (a dry hotpot) to eat with a rice and they actually had it. I think I got the beef one out of a few choices they offered, and it was DA BOMB! Beef, lotus roots, broccoli.. everything was so well-seasoned in the delectable soy & mala based seasoning, every veggie so crunchy, it was a JOY to eat with the fly-off-the-bowl rice. Obviously, this was too much food for 1 seating, so guess what - we actually took home 60% of the dry hotpot and ATE IT COLD IN OUR HOTEL FOR BREAKFAST THE NEXT DAY. (Room didn't have a microwave, so we boiled a green tea to go w/ it) It stayed fresh in AC'd room temp overnight and we literally couldn't believe how good this dish was the morning after, cold. (Ok, you got it now right? Do I need to go on?) After dinner accompanied by cold bottle of Kirin, we were so satisfied with that great comforting feeling that only your comfort food can give you. Rumor is that we did have to walk for 20 min to digest all that we had cuz we did eat a lot. I invite all diners, even ones not familiar with Chinese hotpot, to try this place - esp. if all you've been eating are latin/cuban food & american fare that tend to be fried/greasy. You'll thank me later. Highly recommended - a gem in Brickel! read more

Asian food is so limited in Miami. This is my go to restaurant for comfort food. I've only ever ordered hotpot which has always been good. It is a little bit on the pricier side. The service is good but sometimes they'll forget items you've ordered so you have to remind them. Overall it's a great restaurant for hotpot. read more

Da Tang Zhen Wei - Everything we ordered for our dinner - Chinese Near Me - Miami, Florida

This place is located inside of a Shopping Plaza/Hotel in Brickell, and it was a little bit difficult for me to find, but the people working or so nice. They stepped outside while on the phone with me to help direct me to the front. Turns out I had just missed the door and walked around the entire building by accident. It's actually just up the valet ramp inside the glass doors to the left. Our server was so nice, I think his name was Zeus, and being that we were a large group, we probably tried almost half the dishes on the menu and shared them all. The drinks were delicious and strong enough to make us giggly. Honestly, all of the dishes were pretty good, the duck was definitely a stand out, but it required almost the entire length of the dinner to be prepared and brought out. I loved the toppings bar, that enabled me to make a unique concoction of garnishes and condiments that made for a great dipping sauce, which paired very well with my (unadventurous) fried rice. I decided to play it safe since the rest of the table was ordering the exotic dishes. In fact, I didn't even participate in the hot pot, although those who did remarked it was amazing. The ambience is authentic and the service cannot be beat , they are all so friendly there. We were celebrating a birthday and I'm sure we'll be back again soon. Thank you! read more

Food was subpar and the quality tasted old. Not even a thought of compelling anything. Service was lackluster, rushed, and uninformative. The ambience is all that there is to be said about this place. I highly recommend the Chinese Pavilion in Pembroke Pines however, it is like day and night. In an obscure way, this was night. read more

This place is located inside a shopping complex where the four ambassadors hotel is located so it was kind of hard to find at first. When you step inside, it doesn't feel like you were just in a shopping mall in the city of Miami next to the ocean for sure. I love the modern Chinese decor of the place. Maybe my experience was different, but I thought the service was not bad. The staff was very attentive to the table next to us providing them with lots of recommendation and checking up on them with every order they made about the food. We didn't need the same attention but the staff was nice and accommodating to us as well. All of the food we ate were delicious and flavorful. I never had any issues with it being too salty or overwhelming. All of the food were perfect to my liking. I enjoyed the duck and my favorite was definitely the fried eggplants. They also have a la carte hot pot but we didn't think it was quite worth the price but it looked really good as well. We'll definitely be back to try more. read more

This restaurant is kind of hidden in a little building called Four Ambassadors. It was tricky locating it but once we found it, we were so excited. This place is definitely one of the most authentic restaurants I've been too. The staff was amazing and our server was so kind. He explained all the hotpot details and made sure to help us order the right things. We started off with the scallion pancakes, which were delicious. Soo crispy and hot. Then we had the chicken dumplings, I do wish they were a little more crispy. They seemed a little soft and flavorless. Then we ordered the main dish, which was the hotpot. We both chose the spicy schezuan one. We underestimated how spicy it would be. My nose was dripping and my eyes were watering on my 3rd bite But it was DELICIOUS. For the hotpot, we got Wagyu beef and chicken along with shrimp and some veggies and noodles. All of it was delicious. I am definitely eager to try another hotpot flavor next time. We ate till we physically could not eat another bite. This place is definitely the best hotpot spot in Miami! I've tried many in south Florida and nothing has topped this one yet! Make sure to check it out if you're in the area :) read more

By now it should be known that the kitchen and I don't get along. So when friends get together my contribution is takeout. Since I was celebrating with friends who live in downtown Miami, I ordered from DaTanfg. I'd driven by their location previously but hadn't checked it out. After this takeout order, that has to change. For starters, my Ubereats driver was awesome in keeping me informed and even in separately packing the hot food and cold mochi. Speaking of the food, I also ordered pork dumplings and Japanese style fried chicken. The fried chicken had a nice amount of meat, a perfect hint of spice and a nice crisp to it and was a hit at the table. Similarly for the pork dumplings, with the noodles a great texture. The sweetish sauce was great as well. read more

I love this place, I come here every week and always have a satisfying meal so I'm actually confused by the low rating. The food itself is actually great. I love their pecking duck, pork soup xiao long bao , shrimp dumplings, dry fried green beans. I get the pork hot pot while my bf gets the spicy one, we order a much of high quality meat, shrimp wontons, oyster mushroom, lotus root, pumpkin. I love the sauce bar I add more seasoning to my hotpot because I like to drink my soup. Service is fine, sometimes they're more busy than normal and you have to ask twice but I'm not bothered since I come frequently it's not always the case. read more

Wish they were open! I see they've been temporarily closed for a while now. Their food and staff are great!

Note: The food here is pretty good. Really overpriced, but good. Was it worth the price? Not really, especially coming from someone who eats Chinese food every day and knows what authenticity is The reason for the two-star review is they're deceptive. We visited this restaurant for lunch because we've heard decent comments about the duck from friends. However, when we were ordering, the waitress tells us that they don't offer tap water because in the US there's no free tap water. We were like huh? She realized her mistake and then emphasized "you may not know this since you're visiting, but in Miami, it's common practice to not give free water." I grew up in Miami. When I called that out to her that I grew up here and I've had free water in the city my whole life at every restaurant establishment, she course-corrected and said "oh, well not Brickell. Brickell restaurants dont." When I pointed out that I come to Brickell as a regular to dine, she just said "well do you want this water or not" (note: it's $8 for a bottle of flat water). I think if a restaurant establishment wants to scam people via water that's fine. Just say you don't offer tap water and you charge, but don't make ridiculous excuses because you assumed we were foreigners/out-of-towners and think you can make a quick buck off of us. It really left a bad note for our dining experience. It's rather sucky because I do want to support Chinese businesses! But I don't stand for deception nor scammy techniques and false assumptions of dining guests. I'd much rather support the many other amazing local Chinese-owned businesses across Miami that have always warmly welcomed us with nostalgia and grace. read more

I'm very picky about my Asian food and this place did not disappoint. A hidden gem in Brickell! A bunch of Chinese were eating there which is always a good sign about the food quality. I personally really love authentic Asian cuisine as they are made in Asia and am not about Asian restaurants changing the flavor profile to appease the locals' palette. Other reviewers complain about the price but it's the price you pay for a restaurant that's smack in downtown Brickell. read more

Got our order wrong three times (no exaggeration) and served us raw chicken when we ordered Japanese fried chicken. I'm 7 months pregnant. If I didn't notice and got food poisoning, they could've killed my baby. Obscene prices for poor service (and I don't expect any good Asian spot to have good service but this was just ridiculous, they refused to acknowledge they did anything wrong even after so many mistakes). They didn't even apologize for the raw chicken. Garlic crusted rack of lamb did not have a garlic crust, no crust at all actually. They served me their clay pot braised fish with tofu and swore it was the wan zhou spicy fish stew (which is what I actually ordered). I order the wan zhou spicy fish stew everywhere I go, they absolutely did not serve me that yesterday. It wasn't spicy, not a single chili pepper in sight and it also definitely was not a stew. I mentioned it to the server and he checked with the chef before confirming it was the wan zhou spicy fish stew. I strongly disagreed but the server still charged me for the wan zhou spicy fish stew which was $29 (the clay pot braised fish with tofu was only $22). The server offered us free dessert to make up for it. Bro, let me go the fuck home already. You messed up my order THREE times and risked my baby's life, but you didn't fix your mouth to apologize even once. There were three servers available and all three of them were like this. No, they were not all Asian so it wasn't a cultural thing. I'm used to poor service at Asian restaurants but this was just ridiculous considering how badly they fucked up. The mistake with the raw chicken was so serious, could've resulted in a lawsuit for them if the worst possible outcome became reality. There's a lot of respect and love for pregnant women in Asian culture. Didn't feel any of that here and they overcharged me for something I didn't even actually order. Waste of time and money. I love authentic Chinese food and love supporting Asian establishments in Miami. This was a huge let down. I will never come here again. The only reason we came here is because Foodies is permanently closed, they'll be truly missed if this is all that's left for Chinese in Miami. read more

Had a delicious dinner here last night! It was our first time trying Hot Pot and the service, atmosphere and dishes were epic. We started with the half Peking duck, highly recommend! Then the Chicken Dumplings, very flavorful. We then had the best course which was Hot Pot. My partner got the mushroom broth and I got the pork broth along with beef, shrimp, Chinese broccoli, egg and more. Our waiter brought us some special sauce to dip the toppings in once it came out of the pot. You can also choose your own sauce at the sauce bar. It was so fun making our own meats and veggies in the hot pot and the sauce was so tasty. We will definitely be back to try their ramen soon! read more

Many hot pot places that I have been do offer a good variety of meats and vegetables for your hot pot. But deer meat is a first for all 13 of us. They are just as good as the wagu beef but priced a bit better. It is also not unusual to have the best of both world here. We had lobster and clam sashimi to begin with, then excellent Peking duck (pre-ordered). salty egg coated cooked crab and also green onion and garlic cooked lobster. You can have a most enjoyable small group dine-out but this place is made for parties. Yup, they offer a good time for people with passion for great food and great drinks with great friends. Service are very pleasant and friendly. Many selections are right off the menu. But if you have a nice group, call and prearrange with the owner/staff. You will have a most special and enjoyable evening. read more

Food, service and ambience were on point especially the food. Awesome food I felt like the ingredients were authentic and from scratch and minimally processed the steak tender and the chicken moist. The fried vegetable rice was quite good. Bit funky is the layout of the dining area since they have rooms that offer privacy. Regardless, the ambassador is an iconic residence and every Miami and Shosh through there. After dinner, go for a walk and see the bay. It's beautiful. read more

Avoid this Place if You Want a Good Hotpot Experience in an Honest Establishment 'This restaurant is extremely poor value for money, and downright dishonest in how it conducts business. I went with two other friends. Having been to more than three dozen other hotpot restaurants within the past few years, I knew what to expect. My friends did not. The first problem came when we got the menu. They have 2 ways to order meat for the hotpot. You can either (1) buy individual meats and vegetables a la carte, or (2) order from an extremely limited menu of meats and have it flat rated. Most hotpot and Korean BBQ restaurants have a flat rate (like $40) for unlimited meats from a set menu of maybe 8-12 meats. That is what I assumed option 2 was. However, after talking to the waitress, that is not what Option 2 was. She first pushed that option very heavily. When I asked for more details, she was very squirrelly about answering. She finally admitted that if you choose the flat rate option, you only get 1 option of meat and only get 1 plate of it for $45. It is not unlimited. The limited meats in that flat rate list mainly consisted of cheap ones like pork belly that cost $9 a la carte. I naturally asked (and assumed) that if you're paying $45 for pork belly in the flat rate option that you can pay $9 for on the a la carte menu, then the $45 plate would have significantly more meat. The waitress said no. The amount of meat on the plate depends on the mood of the chef, sometimes you can get just as much meat if you do the a la carte $9 plate as you would in the $45 flat rate option. She also said you could also get less meat. It took a lot of probing to get this information out of her which makes it seem like its a scam where they hope you pick the $45 flat rate meat option (as you would in most other hotpot places) and get surprised when you don't get more after the first plate. Apart from that, service was horrible. There were only 3 tables full on a Saturday night, yet they forgot our rice and noodles, did not refill water for 45 minutes, and did not check on us at all. This place reeks of a dishonest scam and there are so many better options available in South Florida. read more

DaTangZhenWei serves authentic Chinese hot pot in the Brickell area. Located in the Four Ambassadors Condo, an older building on Brickell Bay Drive right by the entrance to Brickell Key, it may be easy for people to miss. Street parking is available along Brickell Bay Drive, as well as valet at the Four Ambassadors (though not sure if validation is provided). We came as a party of 3 on a random Wednesday during Miami Spice to try their Dinner Menu out, and it brought A LOT of food. Our server started us off by explaining the different hot pot base (we all opted for something different, and I went with the spicy hot pot base), how the menu worked, as well as the sauce bar they have in the back for you to go and grab your own spicy mayo, soy sauce, eel sauce, among others. Be sure to bring your appetite! All of the vegetables, meat, and sea food were of high quality! Stand outs included the beef short rib, lamb skewers, and squid. While this was not an all-you-can-eat experience, it was pretty close to it given the amount of food we had. The Miami Spice dinner menu came with a selection of mochi at the end which we enjoyed. I am very glad that DaTangZhenWei continues to offer something very different for those of us in the Downtown/Brickell area! Asian fusion is nice, but having a good, authentic hot pot experience as an option is also very welcome. read more

We were looking forward to going, a new experience. While the appetizers were good, not great, they were the only thing as a positive. After the apps were shared, the rest of the meal went downhill. Service was slow and disorganized. After we ordered drinks, some took extremely long to be served. The main meals were served at various times through our dinner, for example it took over an hour to serve a seafood fried rice as well as fish entree. Was very disappointed and will not be going back. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this place. Looks like they were previously a karaoke bar and seem to be in the process of setting it back up again. Really good menu options and would easily come back again.
