Overall, Homey Hot Pot was a good experience. My friends and I did the AYCE sushi when we went, which is priced at around $26, which is not bad for the quantity you can order. The sushi is great, but is a little heavy on the rice. The issue we encountered was the service. The first two orders came out pretty quickly, but for our third order, we only did 2 rolls, and it took over 1.5 hours despite us giving several reminders to the waiters. Overall, a good experience, but I would recommend ordering most of the sushi in the first two orders. read more

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Worth every penny! This was my first ever time trying hot pot and will definitely not be the last. The ingredients were so fresh and delicious. I got the hot spicy base and boy was it spicy. As they added more soup to it, it only got better. Loved it. The inside is a little awkward seating wise, but nothing to worry about. The server who explained everything to us after learning it was our first time was a little... weird? He was talking normally and then switched into an accent and talked super quickly. Not sure what that was about, haha. There is a nice and affordable parking garage nearby as well! read more

This was my mom's and my first hot pot experience and it hit the spot! They had clear instructions on the table for how everything worked and a highly visual menu with nice pictures of all the options. The price for all you-can-eat was pretty good, we just couldn't eat it all. I think the lunch special would be the perfect amount if it had been available at the time of our visit. We were seated quickly, our food came out quickly, and our drinks and broth was topped up often. You check out at the counter, when you're ready to go, which I always appreciate. Would love to try the sushi next time on another visit to Bloomington. read more

Very good food but the layout can be confusing for fist timers such as myself. It was really good and I'd love to return especially knowing my way around better. The service was helpful but it was a bit loud at the time and hard to hear the server who was explaining things. Pretty relaxed vibe in there overall and it's a cool little spot. read more

Can't beat it for the price! Homey Hot Pot delivered such a fun and flavorful experience. We got a great spread of meats, noodles, veggies, and sides--and it all came out super fresh and well-stocked. The broth stayed hot and bubbling the whole time, and I loved being able to mix and match everything just how I liked it. The vibe is super casual and welcoming, and for how much food you get, it's honestly such a steal. Definitely recommend for a group dinner or date night! read more

I love this place. I ate here the first time I visited Bloomington and I go back every single time I'm in town because it's so yummy! And so healthy! I don't even know how the other restaurants in Bloomington are because I'm usually only in town long enough for one meal and I can't get myself to skip this place! They have great service. The staff seems to work as a team and is so attentive. read more

The Homey in Bloomington is completely different than the homey in Indianapolis. The quality is 100% better. I wish this one was in Indy. I ordered a few sushi rolls and sashimi, the fish was a lot better than the one in Indy. Everything overall seemed a lot better over here compared to their other location, meats, veggies. I would definitely drive the 45 mins here just to get this again! read more

Wowwwww -- this was the first experience everyone in our party has had with Hot Pot; of course, thanks to TikTok I had seen many places for hot pot and wanted to try it out for myself. The service did not disappoint- he was so kind and explained every part of the ALL YOU CAN EAT Hot Pot and sushi - we each got our own hot pot with our choice of soup and the add ins were abundant. My favorites ended up being the dumplings, rice cakes, Napa cabbage, bok choy, and the pork that was marinated. They also had a sauce bar where you can either follow a recipe or make your own concoction. We were highly impressed by everything we ate and the atmosphere was welcoming. Highly recommend giving Homey a try. read more

Swung by on a whim when my meal prepped lunch didn't work out. For a little under $9, you get 2 rolls and a salad for the lunch special! A little too much sauce on the salad, and the lettuce didn't taste very fresh, but the rolls were great. For the price, I'm impressed. I'll definitely be back! Might get the soup instead of salad, though. read more

This place is a must-go AYCE in Bloomington! I'm visiting some IUB friends and they recommended here. We ordered hotpot and sushi combos. The receptionist is very patient to introduce their specials. The soup base is very nice, I especially like the beef tallow spicy one and the herbal one. Their food is also fresh and clean. Also highly recommend the homemade spicy oil chill dipping sauce, too nice!! read more

Homey Hot Pot & Sushi - Hotpot and sushi!! - Hot Pot Near Me - Bloomington, Indiana

This is the first time experiencing the Hot pot craze that seems to be growing. That being said my review cannot be construed as anything other than a novice hot potter that was slightly overwhelmed. The service was exceptional and the attention to our needs was spot on. From the time we sat down till we left the help was always close by. Parking is also close by with a parking garage right next to restaurant and street parking available as well. We advised our server it was out first time trying the hot pot and she sent over a gentleman who took his time explaining every single page of the menu and answering any questions we had. Homey hot pot offers all you can eat hot pot or all you can eat sushi or both together. The price is only a few dollars difference and actually quite a value for what you are allowed to choose from. You start off by picking a soup base and then page by page you choose what items you would like brought to your table. Keep in mind that you actually cook the items you choose at your table. So don't freak out when raw ingredients are sat in front of you. Once the broth/soup is sat on the burner and it comes to a boil, you can start adding your ingredients. You are the chef, cook and mastermind behind your own concoctions. We were advised that the food can be a little bland so they have a very nice seasoning bar where you can mix and match any desired flavors. They have a couple of recipes on the wall that help you build a nice dipping sauce. You do have to be aware of the temp of your broth/ soup and that can be a little tedious at first. There is a lot going on and your table fills up with food very fast. There is so much to choose from I would recommend asking for smaller portions to start so you can enjoy the many offerings they have. We chose to go with the basics and were perfectly happy. We left full and were pleased with the selection and service. The restaurant appeared very clean and the employees very friendly. We would of given 5 stars but for the amount of work to cook and season the food made the experience feel more like work than pleasure. The experience is most likely worthy of 5 stars for hot pot aficionados. read more

Never have tried this hot pot stuff before and it's not that this place was not good just not my kind of food..we were there for lunch our waiter did explain how it all works, different broths, ingredients etc. I ordered the mushroom broth with a variety of ingredients, It was just okay, my husband liked his though. Also had a rainbow roll it was just mediocre too, my suggestion please roll the sushi rolls a little tighter. Service was great and looked clean! read more

Homie Hot Pot and Sushi definitely feels like home for me. I have moved from East Bay Area, California and have been craving for delicious hot pot and sushi! When I heard I had to drive 1 hour to go to this location, I didn't hesitate at all and went for it. For only $19.99/person all you can eat hot pot and sushi, it was definitely worth the drive. They had a lot of selections of sushi and hot pot ingredients to choose from, which I'm very happy that they did that! Their soup base were super delicious and flavorful! The two soup base that I highly recommend for new people are tomato base and tube bone for a clear taste. For people who don't know what hot pot is, it is when they give you raw ingredients of your choice and you boil it at your table yourself. They allow you to choose 5 ingredients first for each person, to make sure you don't waste the food. You may continue to order more ingredients as you eat! At this very moment, they are having ventilation problems, but that just means you can't cook your food at the table. The chefs in the back will cook everything for you, so during that time mind as well try their sushi selection but be careful and don't get too full off of rice! The waitress is very friendly; she helps you change plates when needed and always says you're welcome when you thank her. I would definitely come back again and hopefully their ventilation problem is fixed, so I can cook my own hot pot! read more

All you can eat style of hotpot with only a few dollars more for all you can eat sushi also! The sushi uses a lot of rice but it's made fresh! There is also sashimi offered! The hotpot was good! There is a charge if there is food waste but that was not a problem! I think it would be nice to have more beef options. The bone broth is nice and light. The service was very good we got seated quickly but had called ahead to make sure a party of 4 was possible. The ambiance was good we got a nice booth table. read more

Update: my husband and I have now leveled up to professional hot-pot-ers. It truly is a skill. While you wait for your food, you need to go find the sauce bar. Load up some bowls with whatever sauces and spices you want to add to your broth or dip your noodles in. Pro-tip: get some yum yum sauce for dipping noodles. For the broth, I like to order the tube bone broth and then I add in chili oil, garlic, green onion, and seafood sauce. Also, to the side of the sauce bar, they have some miso soup and also some sort of desert soup thing that I haven't tried. Another pro-tip: be sure to order some dumplings for your soup. I didn't know that was an option for the longest time. That was time wasted. Another update: the price is about $29 for unlimited sushi and hot pot. All the sushi is included, even the chef's specials. Come hungry to get your money's worth. read more

Homey hot pot never disappoints. The food is always fire. The soups are super flavorful, the sauce bar is crazy well stocked, the meats and veggies are super fresh, and the sushi hits every time. A little expensive, but that is to be expected with all you can eat. The service is amazing. The dude who always seats me and takes our order is the one of the nicest guys in Bloomington. The people who come around and check in/refill your meat and veg are also super pleasant. The ambience is always great. Sit down and stay a while. The place is amazing. Try my sauce recipe: Sesame sauce Peanut sauce Hot chili oil Fresh chili peppers Oyster sauce A ton of black vinegar read more

Finally a dedicated hot pot place in town! I'm giving it an A-OK rating because Homie/Homey is truly A-OK compared to my other hot pot experiences (grew up in the San Gabriel Valley [SGV] in Southern California where hot pot restaurants proliferated) and because of the poor user experience (for newbies). Since this place is new, they're still working out some operational kinks and they seem a bit inefficient. Also, Homie/Homey needs to upgrade from chinese-only menus. I'm used to and can manage with chinese-only menus in the SGV because of the saturation of my fellow Chinese folks, but it's not conducive in a more diverse town like Bloomington. Furthermore, there are no directions for folks who have never had hot pot + the employees don't seem trained yet on how to explain. So, in case you're looking for pointers, here goes: *First things first, choose your soup base. The spicy soup base is pitiful because it's not spicy at all. *Second, choose your meats, veggies and other fixings. Unlike shabu, there isn't a set plate of veggies ready for you. *Lastly, after you order, pick your sauce! Hot pot is traditionally eaten with Sa Cha (the sauce on the way left on the lower row). It's made of soybean oil, garlic, shallots, chilis, brill fish, and dried shrimp....and I think it's pretty gross even though I grew up with it. So you can't go wrong with some chili, soy sauce, garlic & cilantro. It's really weird that they have random spices and sauces that we don't traditionally eat with hot pot (like ketchup) but whatever. The sushi that comes with the hot pot AYCE is actually decent. This is also because I've been to a "Japanese" restaurant in town that completely butchered a California roll, so my standards are pretty low here. Hot pot is perfect for the cold weather that's setting in! read more

I honestly do not have enough good things to say about this food, just went for the first time and it's already my new favorite hidden gem, planning on going back again this week. Each person gets their own bowl of soup base (different options for the soup base, and they have a vegetarian one), and then you can order any and all toppings to cook inside your pot and eat. They had SO many toppings we barely had room on the table, and you can order as many different items as you want. It was so fun experimenting with different items to cook in the broth, I got to try a new mushroom (enoki, order it! Once you cook them they are like yummy little noodles), and they had so many different seafood and vegetable options to choose from. They also had a long bar of sauces to add in or to use on your cooked veggies/meat that I loved, I added fresh ginger, green onions, yum yum sauce, hot chili oil, and another hot sauce at different points in time and it was really fun creating new flavor combos. They were really attentive about asking if you wanted more soup as you cook and eat, but honestly we ate so much in just the first round we were stuffed. The sushi is all included if you do the all you can eat sushi and soup combo, the sushi was good, def not my favorite (almost all the rolls offered were pretty basic and had shrimp tempura in them, I like a wide variety of sushi cram packed with different fish), but I mean the main star of the show is the hot pot experience for sure, so that's fine (I wasn't there for the sushi, it was just a nice little addition). The sashimi was good! Definitely a hidden gem, I've lived here my whole life and never tried them before and I'm so sad I didn't catch on sooner! I'll be back later this week for more hot pot fun, and can't wait to try new items! read more

I love this place . Every time I'm there I wish I could eat more . We took friends and they loved it too .

We came here Saturday evening for dinner because my wife was in the mood for Sushi. We got the AYCE and hotpot. This is maybe the 3rd time we've been here. We've always enjoyed the atmosphere and service here. The food had been very good in the past, however, this time we were a little disappointed. The sushi was rather bland and one note. They didn't seem to have as much selection with things, either. My hotpot was decent, however I feel like that has maybe changed since we were here a couple years ago. Overall, it was an alright experience this time, and I'm not sure if we would go back. read more

Drove down tonight to try out Homie!!!! It was definitely worth the drive!!! $21.99 for all u can eat hot pot is an amazing deal!!! The portion sizes are huge! I was shocked by the amount of meat you are given. I chose the fatty beef and peeled shrimp. The amount of shrimp I received was shocking because there were so many!!! Definitely try the hot and spicy pot. Extremely flavorful and I even added more spice to kick it up. Not only is a hot pot fun to eat, at Homie it is delish!!!!!! My add ins included, fatty beef, shrimp, straw mushrooms, another type of mushrooms, tomatoes and instant noodles (ramen). From the sauce bar I added soy sauce, garlic, green onions, peanut sauce and I think the call it Lou????? Looked like chili oil. Soooooooooo good!!!!!! read more

I've come here twice already, and neither times have I been disappointed! This is a pretty big place but can get packed if you get in at the wrong time. One thing to mention: when you go, make sure you are HUNGRY!!! This place has awesome options where you can do all you can eat sushi and hot pot for 21 bucks and it's so worth it! Few things I tried that I loved: * gyoza - I ordered 2 orders of these and pretty much devoured it * sushi rolls - I don't remmeber how much I ate but I feel like I tried all of them because of how full I was. It was an awesome experience and personally the rolls with spicy tuna I really enjoyed * hot pot - you can put 5 items of your choice in here to which I picked beef, lamb, enoki mushroom, pork and shrimp balls - I enjoyed all except felt the enoki mushrooms were too much *** one thing to note - order the hot pot the hot & spicy - it's sooooo good but pretty spicy so be aware**** Overall great experiences and great service - I will be back :) read more

Homey Hot Pot & Sushi - Look how pretty these hot pot covers are!! - Hot Pot Near Me - Bloomington, Indiana

Five stars for the sushi! This was my first time visiting homie/homey hotpot. I've read some mixed reviews about the sushi but my boyfriend and I thought it was great. He contemplated getting all you can sushi and hotpot but ended up just getting sushi. I got sushi and a very large bowl of hotpot. They are still cooking everything in the back which is fine but they are still pacing everything like it's still a hotpot place. In Hong Kong, we would spend a couple of hours cooking our own meals around a hotpot but since their ventilation system is broken, they have to cook everything in the back. So, instead of spending a couple of hours there it's much faster but the employees still treat it like it was a slower paced "actual" hotpot place. It took us awhile to get the check but since it was still noon there weren't many customers waiting to get a table. We will definitely be back for the sushi. I can see how it can be a long wait for sushi during busy nights though. read more

So we never had hotpot before and came in because of our curiosity. Our server explained how it worked, but after seeing the menu and the sushi options we opted to just have sushi. The portions are good if you want to order a few different ones and share. Next time we will be more adventurous and try the hotpot. read more

I love their hot pots. Their sushi is below average especially after they just included all you can eat sushi to their all you can eat hot pot (used to be an extra charge for adding sushi to hot pot). Their sashimi slices are very thin and you can only order 8 slices. Their sushi rolls are okay for all you can eat, but need to improve on sashimi quality and quantity. I personally would not mind paying more for better quality and quantity of sushi. read more

Homey Hot Pot & Sushi - Great food!!! all you can eat hot pot and sushi - Hot Pot Near Me - Bloomington, Indiana

I took my 11 year old bonus daughter here because she was craving sushi. $19.99 for all you can eat sushi and hot pot. It's usually $23.99 but the burners at the tables aren't working, so they bring the soup out already made for you. The food was excellent! I got the Godzilla roll and it was top notch. Reminded me of the sushi I'd get when I lived in Clearwater, FL. The only downfall with this place was that the waiter rushed us. I was honest and said I'd never had hot pot so I had no idea how to order. Apparently you pick one seafood, six veggies and one meat? The menu gives no instructions. Once he told me that, he rushed me through it and gave me no additional time to look at the menu. No clue where the meatballs fit in. He didn't explain that at all. He just assumed I'd want chicken and didn't give me time to pick a meat. He also pointed to a bar off to the side and said we could go there for wasabi and things of that nature. We got some additions for our soup (garlic, spicy oil, etc). The portions are big so we didn't ask for anything else, as it's "all you can eat". I'm honestly not sure how you'd even go about ordering extra since he didn't explain it. Also- it says "don't waste food, waste food charge of $8.99/lb". I don't know if that's for the additional stuff that's ordered or what but it made me nervous bc my bonus daughter is only 11! We couldn't eat all of the soup. Maybe that's just for the additional stuff for the all you can eat. I would have given 5 stars had the waiter been more patient and explained things better. read more

Usually, I am not one to leave reviews on restaurants, however my experience here was absolutely PHENOMENAL. After a bad hot potting experience a few years ago, my girlfriend had no interest in going, but after some consideration and research we came out here! We were promptly seated at our table and drinks were brought to us within seconds. The tables around us were extremely clean and beautifully set up and the bathrooms were extremely clean and secluded away from tables despite how small the store was. Our server brought a gentleman aside to explain to us what hotpot was, how to cook our food, how long, explained the broth base to me that i wanted, and even broke down prices for us. Mine and my girlfriend's food were brought out entirely within 5 minutes and our drinks never reached completely empty before refilling. I gladly will be back!! read more
