    I've always liked happy lamb. Good selection of meat, vegetables and condiments. They are expensive but I'd say it's nice to eat all you can once in a while. We had plenty of veggies and meat; and left feeling overly satisfied Lots of seating available this evening (Monday). Service was very good, very friendly waiters. Everyone said hi and greeted us with smiles. Clean interior decor.

    Happy Lamb Hotpot - Coquitlam location 1001-1163 Pinetree Way Coquitlam (by Henderson Mall) Parking - Rooftop of Henderson Mall Entrance - outside Henderson Mall by Pinetree Way ( No access inside the mall) https://happylambhotpotca.com/ We decided to celebrate one of our family member's birthday. Our first time to Hapoy Lamh Hotpot - AYCE Apparently if you go there on your birthday with party of 4 or more. Birthday person gets a complimentary meal ( just have to show your ID). You get to chose your broth for $11.99 We chose the AYCE Dinner Combo They have a wide selection of choices from meat to seafood including fishball & meatballs, mutton dumplings, fish slices etc. Definitely something for everyone! The food were fresh, the raw prawns when cooked were firm & sweet. I was impressed with the quality of the food & its choices. The robot Carrie's the tray of lamb & beef slices with the server, it was so cute...it even says "Thank you" & "Goodbye" before it leaves. Service was good, server checked on the soup level, your water glass & your teapot. It was a great lunch, all of us went home & had a nap! Meat/Food coma

    I visited here about a month ago for a hot pot. I'm totally obsessed with hotpot particularly in cold days in Vancouver. Happy Lamb in Coquitlam had a smaller selection in meat and toppings, bur food was good. I had AYCE lunch combo for $20.99. Server brought meat while everything else is self-serve (eg. watercress,mushrooms, tofu, garlic beef, etc). They also had chicken wings, spring rolls, sesame balls and noodles on the side. One special thing about this location is the robot that brings you meats. The price is cheaper than most places these days. It's usually $25.98 including the broth and is included with pop. Lunch special is pretty decent. I'd recommend this place to everyone who wants affordable delish hot pot. The female server was very friendly.

    Reasonably priced all you can eat food. I like the self-serve area, particularly for vegetables -- I can choose what I want, and get as much as I need. You only need to ask for a few different types of meat, but generally most of what you need is self serve. They do not have many floor staff as a result, but they were really efficient and tentative to all tables.

    Amazing all you can eat hot pot! You choose a soup base and then you can go off and grab all the food you would like. Great assortment of veggies, meat, noodles, fish balls, seafood, etc. The sauce bar is also stocked with peanut sauce, satay sauce, soy sauce, garlic, green onion, cilantro, etc. Unlimited pop is also included. You have to ask the servers for beef and lamb, but the robot is nice and quick. Ice cream at the end of the meal is a must!

    My first time here. Was impressed with the well appointed, well ventilated interiors and overall cleanliness of the place. The service was also friendly and perfectly timed. Broth flavor and sauce selections were just ok. Food safety regulation was clearly not being followed with raw meats being stored above raw vegetables in the self serve refrigerated showcase. Showcase had a varied and good selection of veggies, meats, carbs and seafood. Quality of sliced meats was impressive for the price point. Garlic beef was the only item that bad - slimy in texture but in an off putting way .. possibly from over tenderization?? Ample free and safe parking on the rooftop of Henderson Mall, even after hours. One of the most reasonably priced AYCE hotpots. Would def return for the good value.

    Let me start off by saying this is an AYCE place. It wasn't too busy when I went and there is paid parking located in Henderson Place. I ordered the premium option which came with the Lamb and the premium meat. They also have a selection of seafood balls and seafood in general like : Oyster, fish, crab and shrimp. There is also a selection of fresh vegetables. The dining experience was good. The broth had good flavour and the side options were good. The service was good. The place has a casual setting. It's worth a visit I think

    You can eat so much for $19.99, there are many varieties and not many flavors. After all, it is only 20, what else can you expect?

    I bought a Groupon to have dinner with B. The Groupon was not a great deal given the amount of food we got. I think there are better deals outside of Groupon. Anyways. The Groupon came with the following for 2 people: -Premium Lamb Shoulder (15 Slices) -Marbled Beef (15 Slices) -Tender Chicken Filet -White Prawn -Cod Fish Filet -Pork And Shrimp Dumplings -Assorted Meatball Platter -Fish Tofu -Leafy Vegetables -U-Don -Dessert: Lychee Goji Berry Pudding -the Half and Half Soup Broth The portion of each item was very small. The price of the Groupon was $53. Other than the lamb, beef and meatballs, everything was meh. For a little bit more, the AYCE would be a better deal. In terms of food freshness, it was ok. There was almost no service. The food came all at once which was good. The thing that didn't impress me was their sauces. Seems like their sauces were nothing special. I do like the variety. But you can easily get each item / sauces from T&T. The robot waitress was very cute.

    Came here for dinner with my parents and it was a self serve AYCE hotpot place which I thought was kinda fun. Hotpot is already interactive so to pick your own hotpot items yourself was a nice change. They kept replenishing items that would go low and every item was super fresh. Got the regular AYCE menu and at $30.99 it was a good deal compared to other AYCE hotpot places. But the best part surprisingly was the service. Only two servers working tonight and the tables were constantly clean, drinks were refilled and most importantly, they were always smiling. Lily and Mila were so genuinely friendly that it made for a pleasant dining experience especially from an Asian restaurant where good service is rare. This might be my new go to AYCE hotpot place in Coquitlam.

    Broth options and prices

    This was our first time at this location for lunch. Their only option was AYCE plus the price of the broth. Their food selection was pretty good. There were some cooked items included. The sauce bar was basic with the standard options you would expect. Additionally, there were items you can pay extra for such as soda drinks and dessert. Service was alright. Staff dropped off plates of beef and lamb. Staff stopped by regularly to clear dirty plates and refill drinks. Overall, it was a decent meal. Kids under 5 can eat for free which is great since AYCE can get pricey.

    What I find it fun was their robotic cat that delivers your order to you. The food was alright but would have been good if they have more selections in sauces. 3.5/5 for overall service and food quality

    Alleged spicy mala soup base, but it really isn't.
    Kevin L.

    The Happy Lamb leaves a lot to be desired with the food being below average and the server a bit on the excessive side with the presentment of the check and a huge presence when paying cash and expecting a tip....more on that later. Came for lunch and order the Meat solo pot special with fatty beef and fatty lamb, lettuce, cabbage, noodles sweet potato slices and lamb dumplings. The meat was acceptable but I wouldn't exactly cite it as quality cuts. The meat was excessively thin, more so than other hot pots I have had in Vancouver area. The noodles definitely are not made in the shop and the dumplings were a disgusting machine made product that was "perfectly formed" and frozen. So disappointing that when you come to such a traditional Chinese restaurant that this type of food quality is presented. Also ordered was the side dish of mushrooms and you can select two. This was quite fresh and the quantity was great. Again, with the poor quality soup base, this quality was not able to be appreciated. Online menu shows lotus root available, server says never had it. Also as mentioned in other reviews, the sauce bar was rather on the weak side with many of the "standard" items missing. When I ordered I was not given the choice of a base, and was brought the bone base. I requested that I wanted a spicy mala soup base expecting that undeniable numbing sensation so integral to a spicy hot pot. So the server takes the first base away and then quickly returns with what appears to be the same pan she took away and simply some red small liquid and a few cut up chilis. There was no spicy flavor what so ever. This was very disappointing. Presentation: Excellent Soup/broth: Poor Beef: Lacking Lamb: Lacking Noodles: Not fresh Dumplings: Frozen and no flavor Mushrooms: Excellent Heineken: Excellent At the end of meal and check presented, I was paying with cash. Quite a bit of the meal was left uneaten. The server asked me if everything was all right. I said it was acceptable. Then paid my bill with a very small tip. Server then asked again, I responded the same. She then stood there and said was I sure. I then said there wasn't any additional tip coming. What was surprising to me was the amount of attention paid to me at the end of my meal, surfing for a tip, as opposed to not checking during the meal as it was quite evident that the amount of my meal being consumed and the pace was suggestive that not all was well. The restaurant had 4 tables other than me. I didn't observe her checking on any of the other tables as well. PS: The cat robot was a nice touch!

    Unlike the Burnaby location, their broths are either beef or pork. I don't eat either so I probably wouldn't come to this specific location.

Staff are friendly but understaffed. Once the place filled up they were swamped. Signature steamed seafood pot - definitely on the pricey side, but they don't skimp out. Special mention for the presentation. Plenty of goodies including an entire lobster, half a large octopus (tenticle/arm half), snails, oysters, scallops, prawns, and fish balls among others. Basically everything without fish. Served in a large tray (the ones seen at banquet buffets), and everything cooked in broth. This was enough to probably feed 4-5 adults (assuming average appetites). So pretty. Deep fried squid with fries - honestly this dish was meh. Basically exactly what it sounds like. Squid is tempura style. Nothing special. I'd skip this one. Bossam (pork belly wraps) - served with tofu and spicy kimchi and some vegetable (kelp?) as well. They don't really give enough wraps compared to the pork slices. Decent portion size. My friends and I gobbled this up. This place also serves makgeolli (Korean rice wine) for a very reasonable price. Goes well with the food. Overall my friends and I left happy. Wouldn't mind coming back at some point to try some other dishes. Recommended.

They do have a minimal order weight of 1LB/19.99 / so this might be the reason why some stated this place is expensive, and it could be if you're a small eater seeking the $10-15 pots. In terms of selection - I don't think they have that large of a selection compared to say Big Way - I felt like there was less of everything. The Fried Egg here was a disaster and don't recommend / it was very dry. Broth selection was mid , tried the #1 spicy broth , apparently most popular among customers - the medium level spicy was alright - you can taste the gentle numbing of the peppercorns, however it still lacked intensity , maybe I should got max heat. They were having a happy hour - so the drink was on the house, no option of type of drink. It tasted pretty good. Did not get the ice cream at the end, believe they had basic Vanilla.
