    Tomato / Pig bone broth
    Sera Y.

    My group of 6 was able to get seated immediately at 1210 on a cold Saturday, but we definitly saw the place starting to get crowded round 1230-1. Overall I had a pretty good experience, they had a pretty good selection of items and quality of most of the items were pretty good. Taking a star off for a few things though: we ordered two portions of the steak rib eye, and for some reason one of the rib eyes was really thick + we wanted to cancel the seafood platter when it hadn't been brought out to us yet and were told we couldn't because nobody else was ordering it. I really enjoyed the tomato broth, and they had a good selection of sauces and fruits and a sweet desserty soup that you could help yourself to! Would definitely come back again

    Love the decor here! Overall the hot pot was decent if you aren't trying to eat a lot of meat. We order a beef and a beef tongue, felt like meat quality was kinda mid. We liked the vegetables and the shrimp paste more. The spicy broth was super spicy even when it's mild You order your food through the iPad. Service here was good, we were able to get a server's attention pretty easily& and the server came around with help us with the shrimp paste and add more soup without us having to flag them down.

    It's a vibe

    Real deal. Mango shaved ice. This is an amazing little hot pot joint in Koreatown. Order anything. Whatever suits your hot pot fancy. It's all awesome and perfect late night comfort food in New York. We went back as soon as they opened the next morning for another round of the mango snow ice. (Sounds strange but it made the perfect breakfast) The snowy, flaky goodness changed our lives and we've been on a journey since to find its equal.

    Hot pot - chicken broth with coconut and seashells on the left and pork broth on the right.

    First time for us to try a Chinese hot pot. The waitress was very nice and did provide great advices. You can get on top of the broth a lot of ads-on like beef, chicken, mushrooms, tofu etc... and you can add pasta to do a sort of ramen. The food had a lot of great flavors. Overall, this is a great place.

    TLDR: If you are looking for spicy Sichuan style hot pot in the city, look no further than ER. Conveniently near Herald Square, pretty on par quality-wise with Flushing. Stopped in during the week for a work lunch. Tables were a bit tight but then again this is Midtown so not surprising. Ordering is done on an iPad as is customary nowadays. Went with the pork bone broth and the spicy broth. Both were flavorful, most meats were cooked in the spicy one and veggies in the pork bone. Fish was probably my favorite and quite reasonable at about $5 per order. All the other staple items were good, shrimp paste, tofu skin rolls, fish roe balls, etc. Extra points because they got aprons, so you can hot pot even in a suit!

    Oy, $80 for a la carte hot pot for two people. This place is priiiiicey. But I guess it's what they need to do to stay afloat in Midtown Manhattan. Pro tip: Arrive at 5:30pm on a Monday night, and you won't have to wait. By 7:30pm, though, the place is packed. Best broth was the Pork Soup base, and the best items were the Handpulled Noodles. They need more leafy greens besides napa cabbage, lettuce and tong hua. Some bok choy, yu choy or Chinese broccoli would be great.

    Thought the broths were okay, the spicy one was very oily and it was pretty pricey. I liked how you could just walk in and they had good sauce selection!

    After eating and removing scraps you can see how old + black the pots are

    Not my favorite hot pot but suitable for midtown im sure because of the lack of competition. The hot pots are super old, burnt, and worn out (see photo), i believe these are called cancerous aluminum/stainless steel pots at this point. You would think they can afford to buy new pots

    Excellent new hot pot location in ktown. Went early around 6pm to beat the dinner rush. There isn't a ton of seating so I could see it becoming difficult to get a table during rush hour. Portions are a little bit smaller than other hot pot places, but for us it works out since we aren't huge volume eaters, and it also works out to a much more reasonable price point. usually we're close to $200 but here the bill came out to ~120. I also noticed that the spicy hot pot soup was easier on my stomach, so i think they do a better job of preparing the sauce here. highly recommended!

    ER Hot Pot has two midtown locations and is always busy! We joined the (Minitable) waitlist online, and our table was ready in around 45 minutes for Sunday dinner. I would recommend joining the waitlist before you plan on arriving. It is a more premium hot pot experience where you pay per item. The restaurant is hip with bright neon signs and clean with bins to store your belongings so they don't smell like hot pot. We opted for the two types of broth - pork leg bone and spicy. The spicy broth definitely had the mala/numbing flavor so be prepared (but maybe I'm a baby for spice). I found the broth to be rich and flavorful, while not too fatty. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, but it is pricier than other AYCE hot pot options in Manhattan Chinatown. Favorite ingredients were the Class A beef roll, taro, quail eggs, enoki mushrooms and handmade noodles (so chewy and delicious). They have some exotic dishes too like tripe, feet, pig ears, etc. For a party of four with some non-alcoholic beverages, the bill came out to ~$150 (~$38 pp) and we left incredibly full and satisfied. I would recommend ER Hot Pot if you are in Midtown looking for a more upscale hot pot experience without too long of a wait.

    Ingredients are very fresh Service is great Decoration is modern and stylish Broth is very standard and nothing stands out BUT this place is just way too overpriced to justify... 3 of us spend more than $75 per person and we weren't even full afterwards... For this price, we could even go to Keen's steakhouse across from the street for a nice fine dining dinner

    We got here early in the evening so we didn't have to wait too much. We opted for a two person meal and just paid for extra sauce. So we ordered lamb, pork belly, and marinated beef. The marinated beef was not the move for hot pot. When it went into the broth it got super tough and also soggy? The breading on the chicken was more for stir fry and not hot pot. The lamb was good but my favorite was pork belly! The veggies were yummy too. I can't remember what flavors of the broth we got, but the spicy one was super spicy. Which is to be expected, I just can't handle it. The atmosphere is nice because they played a lot of pop covers sung by Asian artists.

    The restaurant is clean and has character. The food/meat/ vegetables are fresh. It has oranges and cantaloupe as side dishes. A lot of source/seasonings to choose from. Also, it has 2 types of Chinese sweet soups that free to eat. The service is great, the staff is very responsive and quick to help you.

Got off the E train and when we looked for Chinese food, this place popped up with good reviews and it was just a short walk from where we got off the train. My buddies ordered the special lunches and we also got two types of xlb's, beef chow fun, and some fried dumplings. The special lunches come with a little fried rice, cold garlic flavored noodle, choice of egg drop or hot and sour soup, and main side. My buddies all enjoyed their meals. The beef chow fun was also really good and beef was nice and tender. The xiao long baos were excellent and is comparable to any place in California like DTF. Nice and juicy and great with some ginger, soy sauce, and spicy chili. Friendly service and food comes out pretty quickly. Credit card is accepted. Bathroom was also very clean, which is sometimes rare in some Chinese restaurants I have been to. If you're looking for a good Chinese meal, stop here when you're in the Chelsea area.

Then we got a handful of apps - everyone else swore by all the ones they'd had - but I just tried the Salt & Pepper Shrimp and... sweet baby Jesus, this little plate had a wicked amount of flavor from every angle.  "Aggressively seasoned" might be an understatement.  Wild. Onto the mains and I ventured towards their Spicy Drunken Noodle (my go-to whenever I'm hitting a Thai restaurant on my home turf) and... yeah, you probably guessed it - incredible. Not the biggest portion but they made every single component sing with flavor. With so much going on - of course I needed to indulge with another drink (hey, I wasn't driving!). There were six of us, it came to about $100 a person... welcome to NYC. But we did get a wide selection of plates/food and those two drinks accounted for about $40 of my tab. (And you'll never see such a heavy wine pour at a restaurant... they filled the glass almost to the rim - which was not even something I'd do for myself when I'm home.) Definitely recommended.
