I wasn't able to get their names, but the 2 young gentlemen who worked form 6pm yesterday were very helpful and communicative with helping us order. Checked in a proper amount, and ensured the food was to our liking. This was my first real experience dining at a hot pot spot, and they definitely made it worth coming back. Thank you guys, 5 stars. read more

We came for the Ayce hotpot & skewers at 8-10 pm with a group of 4 and after figuring out the fine print (soup base and non proteins are à la carte) which ended up still being a good deal with a group. We also ordered beer & sake which increased the bill but they did honor a 50% discount on the alcohol ! Ayce meats included unlimited lamb, pork belly, beef, and shrimp. Same for the skewers ! But that's all that's included so please plan accordingly. The meat was hq in my opinion. I generally only care about lamb in my hotpot so I'm easy to please. But The shrimp skewers were fireeeee. So crispy! My favorite of the 4. We also ordered some veggies à la carte cuz I can't go without lotus root, some greens, and mushies. Sadly they didn't have any kabocha We also ordered a chicken gizzard skewer à la carte but it came out raw so you're supposed to cook them in the hotpot which I've never done before and it honestly made the texture weird so def skip that next time. We need bbq crispy chewy chicken cartilage! Anyway I'd be down to come back sometime to try some wagyu cuts with friends again although the Ayce was def a good deal. Service was fast and efficient. My only complaint is that there were some fruit flies in the restaurant which was annoying. read more

Liuyishou Hot Pot - Spicy soup base - Hot Pot Near Me - San Jose, California

First time and had a great time! First off... the owner and the staff were amazing - very attentive and super nice. When the broth got low.... there they were... when the food looked like it was going to get low.. there they were. Thank you very much to the crew. Next, the hot pot - was so delish! There was a wide selection of seafood, meats, and veggies. We had two types of broth.. medium spicy and mild, both were very good. I would like to try spicy next time. The place is a decent size... most of the tables I saw were set up for four people. Parking could be a little difficult as they have a small lot... be prepared to have to find parking. Overall... was a great experience! Would I go back? Yes, for sure. read more

Came here with my mom because we were craving hot pot after our recent China trip and I was very impressed. I really loved the spicy soup base (not as spicy as China but still quite delicious). We might have went a little crazy when ordering the food but I loved every single one. Meat was good quality, the tea was very fragrant, and the sauce bar had so many toppings. Service was also very good as well. It definitely is on the more expensive side, but I think it's worth it. I can't comment on parking because I went at an off time; I didn't have an issue parking but the lot is small. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here. I'm looking forward to my next visit. read more

My friends and I decided to try Liuyishou Hot Pot because of an ad we saw on IG for AYCE hot pot + skewers for $23.99 for lunch. However, that could not have been more misleading. We were charged $19.95 for the broth on our final bill. It was originally listed as $7 when we ordered then changed to $15.95 for our party of three. When we questioned it, they said $19.95 was the "actual" price but would honor the $15.95 shown on the ordering tablet. If we hadn't caught it, we would've been overcharged. I find it strange that that an AYCE would charge extra for broth, cause how are we supposed to eat hot pot without the broth?!? And we were automatically charged for the sauce bar. We had to ask the staff to remove it since we didn't touch it. As for the food, the hot pot wasn't bad, with meat quality similar to Chengdu Memory. The only standout items were the shrimp and pork skewers. The beef skewers however were incredibly tough and became almost inedible once they cooled. We ordered 8 lamb skewers in the first round, but when we tried to order more, we were told they had run out--even though the skewers are advertised as "unlimited. To top it off, the ordering tablet was confusing and not user-friendly. Overall, the tough beef, "unlimited" items running out, misleading pricing, and confusing ordering system made for a disappointing experience. I wouldn't come back. read more

I've eaten at plenty of hot pot restaurants across the Bay Area, but Liuyishou Hot Pot stands out for a reason that's easy to overlook. After spending decades in Silicon Valley's high-tech industry, I've developed a habit of judging restaurants the same way I judge engineering: Consistency. Repeatability. Process control. Great food can happen once. Great execution has to happen every day. Liuyishou feels built around that philosophy. The first thing I appreciate is the setup. Instead of forcing everyone to share a traditional yin-yang pot, each person can order an individual soup base. That's a surprisingly smart design for groups with different tastes. I went with the Signature Beef Tallow Mala Broth and the Mushroom Broth. The mushroom broth is clean, naturally savory, and surprisingly comforting. The beef tallow mala broth is exactly what I look for in authentic Sichuan hot pot. Rich, aromatic, and wonderfully numbing from Sichuan peppercorns without relying on overwhelming heat. It has layers of flavor instead of simply being spicy. Then came the meat platters. Besides the generous presentation, what caught my attention was the knife work. The beef, lamb, and pork were sliced to remarkably consistent thickness. That isn't just about appearance. Uniform slices cook at nearly identical speeds, giving every piece the same texture and tenderness. Good kitchens understand that consistency begins long before the food reaches the table. The beef tripe is another must-order. Properly cleaned, crisp, and completely free of the unpleasant odor that often ruins this dish elsewhere. The bean curd skin was equally impressive, soaking up the broth beautifully without falling apart. And of course, fresh fried youtiao. If you've spent time eating hot pot in China, you already know this is almost mandatory. Freshly fried, crispy outside, airy inside, and perfect after just a few seconds in the broth. The most memorable dish, however, was the Dragon Beard Pork. Before serving it, our server actually brought out the entire fried strip, introduced the dish, then carefully sliced it into bite-sized pieces before serving it with chili powder. That presentation was fun. What impressed me even more was the preparation behind it. Look closely before it's cut. The pork belly has been carefully trimmed into an incredibly uniform strip before frying. The color is even from one end to the other, the crust develops consistently, and every piece looks nearly identical after slicing. That level of uniformity doesn't happen by accident. Someone in the kitchen spent real time preparing it before it ever touched the fryer. That's quality control. Service deserves special recognition. Our server checked on us throughout the meal, regularly refilled both soup bases, made sure we always had enough water, cleared empty plates promptly, and never made us feel rushed. Friendly, attentive service like this makes a big difference and is absolutely worth rewarding. To go with the meal, I ordered Lao Xue Hua (Old Snow Beer) from Shenyang. I'm happy to see more authentic Chinese hot pot restaurants around California carrying it now. It's an old-school Chinese lager with a clean, straightforward profile that's incredibly easy to drink. Pair it with rich beef tallow broth and Sichuan peppercorns, and you'll understand why it has remained popular for generations. People often ask me how I judge restaurants. Honestly, I don't judge them by one spectacular dish. I judge them by the small details most people never notice. Uniform slicing. Even frying. Proper ingredient preparation. Balanced broth. Attentive service. When all of those details are consistent, great food becomes predictable. And that's the highest compliment I can give any restaurant. Liuyishou Hot Pot isn't impressive because it's flashy. It's impressive because the system works. -- Dr. C Silicon Valley High-Tech Executive "Good engineering is invisible. So is a great kitchen." read more

Liuyishou has become one of my go-to spots for hot pot. Service is always quick, prices are pretty reasonable and the quality of meat + broth have always been delicious! It's not super pricy too when compared to other spots like Hai Di Lao. The broths here are hearty (I like the pork bone!) and the ring of meat (beef + lamb platter) provides a fun experience when eating. They have a fairly generous sauce bar with tons of options and they even have snacks that you're able to take with you after dining in. Ordering is done via an iPad and service is great too! Everything here is a la carte; if you're able to come during lunch, it's definitely more of a steal. read more

First time trying this spot. Was very surprised how much i ended up liking it. The spice is spicy and the flavors are indulgent. It's unfortunately not ayce like I normally like, but they serve good quality meats with great soup I love the fact there is chicken feet as a side here as well. Hdl has stopped offering this which makes LiuYiShou a step up now. I will say that the table space was not great for me. I sat behind the swiviling shelf and it just didn't provide me any room to cook or eat... they tried to accommodate a party of 6 on a table for 4 which was nice but didn't work out for me unfortunately I would for sure come back a 2nd time to see if I can cook and eat freely next time for a better rating, just because the food was great. If they started a ayce option, I'd be omw right now. read more

Had the AYCE. Hotpot meat is not that great, honestly. Usually I don't eat meat with the sauce, but this required sauce. Skewers (beef and lamb) were good. Had the mushroom broth and chicken. They were alright. I would prefer a richer broth, and they refilled with water I think. About the AYCE price: Broth NOT included in AYCE cost. Sauce bar was automatically charged. Slow service. Next time, I would only go for the skewers over the hotpot. read more

Parking is plentiful but spots are limited mainly due to being reserved for other places in the small plaza. Food is pretty good. The meat is fresh and nicely arranged. I like how it surround the pot saving on table space. Portions are fair for the price. Overall Liuyishou is a good hotspot place. Service is good and food is fresh. read more

Loved the vibes here! The meat ring presentation is a 10/10 and the shared pot for two is massive. Service was super fast and the staff was very sweet. They have a DIY sauce bar with recipe posters, though we had a little trouble matching the sauces to the names on the signs. Pro-tip: The lot is small and located on a very busy road, so give yourself a second to navigate the parking situation. Aside from that, it was a great experience! read more

Have been meaning to checkout this place for some time now and glad I went over last weekend. Place was not too busy so we got seated immediately on Saturday afternoon. Decor is clean and pretty with gold accents -- reminded me of Haidilao. You order with the tablet at your table, sauce bar on one end of the restaurant automatically added @ $7/pp. We had a light lunch for two. Split hotpot with the spicy broth and the house pork broth. Cute cow mascot in chili-fat form slowly melting as the broths warmed like Darth Vader's mask. The famous meat ring was sold out that day, but we got the beef and lamb orders which I believe is the same thing sans-ring. Meat quality was excellent -- tender, balanced, tasty. Both broths were great. Sauce bar ingredients all fresh. Tip: green pepper sauce. That's the tip. The menu is pretty lean. Not too much core hot pot sides and items to choose from. Could be disappointing if you're coming in hungry, not bad if you're just wanting to nibble. Better value than Haidilao, but Mikiya's the current king in town. 4/5 read more

A one and done spot here for me! We swung by on a cold winter Friday evening and boy was it busy! There's an in-person waitlist, and they send you a text when your table is ready. But they don't give you a time estimate so you're kind of left in the dark trying to figure out the best way to kill the time. We had to wait 50 minutes for a table for two! We got Liu's House Special Soup Base and the Mixed Mushroom Soup Base. Flavors for both are umami and tasty, although Liu seriously be trying to up your cholesterol levels with all that BEEF oil he be putting in that broth! There's two huge chunks of solidified beef fat that goes in, and whatever your broth touches is left with chunks and bits of that solidified cow grease once it cools down. All that be going into your arteries! We also got the Sliced Marbled Beef and Vegetable Platter. The beef is tender and soft, and I like the unique assortment of veggies you get like lettuce, woodear, potato, and lotus root. Also note that Liu's House Special Soup Base got a smell that'll stick to your clothes -- after our meal our clothes and car smelled like hotpot for days! You can literally even smell it emanating from the restaurant a block away. Parking is also super hard -- there's only twenty spots or so for all their customers. We had to park street side in the nearby neighborhood and walk a block over. Overall, what a pricey and greasy meal! It was nice to try, but I probably wouldn't come back here again when there's much more affordable and healthier options out there. read more

Liuyishou Hot Pot - the combo of lamb and meat - only $21 or so on the meat so cheapppppp - Hot Pot Near Me - San Jose, California

I love it when a restuarant can make me full hehe. This is NOT AYCE, but still good quality and premium hot pot. Good service, high quality meat, good soup, noodles cook fast so I recommend putting them in later. They also have variety of toppings and sides. Broth: Sour Duck and Pork - flavorful in the beginning but then they eventually started tasting the same, not too memorable Meat: - high quality, prefer beef over lamb (preference), recommend the sliced marble beef - known for their wheel of meat read more

I've tried a few comparable hotpots in the area including Haidilao, Little Lamb Hotpot, mikiya wagyu shabu house etc and this one was an OKAY experience. They didn't have much in the appetizer bar area and didn't bother to refill. It looks impressive with the display of meat etc but I think with all the other salad bar, drinks, desserts of other hot pot places this one is behind. It's also a la carte menu so it adds up with a big group, I rather pay a bit more to get all you can eat. read more

Went for the first time today around 1:15pm. We were immediately seated, with no greetings or introductions. The girl assumed that it was not our first time. When we had to find her to ask her about the soup combination, she told us we had to move tables. When we grabbed our tea to move, she said we can just sit at our original table. Like wtf. Which is it? No "hi welcome, have you been here before?" Every order we put in, she came back to clarify. I would appreciate it if you were nice and transparent with us with the beginning, so service is subpar. Meat is ok, veggies look old, sauce bar is ok. It wasn't even busy inside today and the parking lot was full. I can't imagine how parking will be when inside is packed. Also, idk but this was a huge disappointment. Definitely will not return and don't let the long line deceive you. read more

Chongqing style hot pot! Chong Qing is known for their spicy cuisine and the signature broth here is a very spicy beef broth made with premium beef tallow. It's rich and oh so spicy good. We were recommended the chicken soup with fish maw base and they was also rich and flavorful. The menu here is a la carte but we appreciate the portion size. The part which we didn't care for was the required charge to use their sauce bar and there's no way to opt out. read more

I came in around 8:30 PM for the AYCE night option, but left feeling incredibly disappointed by how the service was handled. First, shortly after we arrived, we were told that "last call" would be at 9:15 PM because the kitchen was closing. To make it worse, we were asked to pay the bill shortly after they informed us about the kitchen closing, way before 10:30 PM. This is incredibly frustrating because their own ads explicitly state that the unlimited menu ends at 10:30 PM. How can you close the kitchen and push out the check over an hour early for an All-You-Can-Eat option? To top it off, they failed to disclose that they were completely out of lamb skewers until after we had already sat down. The lamb skewers are my absolute favorite and the main reason I decided to eat here in the first place. Because they were out, we were left with a very limited selection of only 7 items to choose from for our entire meal. Between the misleading hours, the kitchen closing early, being rushed to pay the bill, and the lack of upfront communication about being out of key menu items, this was a huge letdown. Forgot to add that the waiter keeps turning the hot pot level down to 2 from 6 every time he came to drop off item without saying anything. We like the hot pot water to be boiling to cook the food. I have to repeatedly turn it back up. I dont understand this behavior, but it is really annoying. Also, I have to argue about the sauce charges for my 2 kids at the end. What a nightmare at this place! read more

Liuyishou Hot Pot - Great hot pot place in San Jose. We have enjoyed the food and service. - Hot Pot Near Me - San Jose, California

Went here for a friend's birthday and it was a cool experience overall. What's unique about this place is how they arrange the meat in a circle around the hot pot, which looks really nice when it's served. Service is quick. They also have some interesting Chinese side dishes like cold sour chicken feet and other cold appetizers you don't usually see at other hot pot spots. The experience itself was fun, but aside from the presentation, nothing really stood out too much for me. The food was decent, just not particularly memorable. read more

Came for hot pot and found their $25.59 lunch set -- includes soup base, sauces, and you can pick 9 items from a large selection. Each set also comes with a full plate of meat, so ordering two basically gave us unlimited beef, lamb, and pork. Recommended: shrimp, baby cuttlefish, beef tripe, celtuce, tender beef, and beef tendon. They also have Kagoshima A5 wagyu -- rich and worth trying. Also liked the brown sugar rice cakes, liangfen (cold jelly), cilantro pork meatballs, and the squid. We chose tomato and mild spicy broth, but the "mild" is actually pretty spicy, so the liangfen helped cool things down. read more

First time to Liuyishou and tbh was intrigued the meat ring I kept seeing on social media, it definitely worked because it brought me out to try the place! Dined in on a Sunday night with a short wait time, definitely a spot for large groups and pairs not so much solo diners. Checked in on the iPad and was prompted to order on the iPad. Automatically charged for the sauce bar, $3.50 pp for sauces, side dishes and dessert. Everything else is a la carte including the broth. If you've ever been to Haidilao, you'll be accustomed to the ordering system here. There do have a good variety of items you wouldn't see elsewhere, but feel like they're lacking the veg department. Ordered the Mushroom and Pork Bone broth with two beef entrees, assorted veg (woodear mushroom, lettuce, spinach, taro root, potato and corn), chinese donut and rice. Everything tasted fresh and the broth was not too salty at all. They also provide Tartary Buckwheat herbal tea on the house. The sauce bar has your typical dipping sauce staples with some instructions for recipes if you're not too sure, some side dishes as well. I loved the cucumber salad. Fruits like orange and honeydew as well as a sago, goji berry dessert. Service was minimal and hands off, we did have someone come by to help and to refill broths when we ran low. Besides that, you can call for assistance on your iPad for anything or to call for check. The only thing that bothered me was the music, if you're not bothered by noise this won't be an issue. I just didn't find the hard, experimental EDM to be good for pleasant conversation. But of course, YMMV. Price point is a bit steep, bill came out to be around $80 before tip for two people. Parking lot is small, but didn't have an issue with late dining on a Sunday. read more

Liuyishou is consistently the top tier hot pot. Their spicy beef broth and tomato broth are so good and flavorful. The quality of the meats and other things are great as well.

Service is good, and it's easy to call the staff with the click of a button on the iPad. The ambiance is nice and the place is very nice and modern. read more

Food (5/5) Great hot pot, ingredients were fresh. Excellent sauce selection. Love a good split hot pot too! Price (4/5) Will be about $20-25pp, very reasonable given the ingredients. Wait Time (5/5) We came around 1pm on a weekend and were seated after ~15mins wait. Not too bad. Service (4/5) Pretty good service. They have a tablet with buttons so you can make specific requests (such as for water), though they usually come and ask what you need and occasionally our request went unanswered. Ambiance (5/5) No concerns. Parking/Access (4/5) The parking lot is annoyingly small and is shared with a tutoring place next door which uses a lot of spots for pick-up/drop-off.

This location has a male employee (manager?) that harasses customers for more tip. We gave a 15% tip, which was generous considering the lack of service. They sat us down and never spoke to us ever again. Luckily, we knew our way around hot pot, and knew to use the tablet to order. We had to wave down the waiters 3 times just for simple things like water to drink or missing items. We tipped 15%, even though there was no service. The male employee then asked us why we didn't tip more. We were so confused, because tipping is not mandatory, let alone demanding more. We will never come here again. There's so many other hot pot places that offer better service without harassment. Long story short. We tipped 15% but got harassed and embarrassed for not tipping more by a male employee (manager?) when paying our bill. There was no service from the moment we sat down. Eat somewhere else unless you like getting embarrassed for tipping anything under 30% here. read more

Hot pot is my favorite food so I might be a bit biased, but I genuinely thought Liuyishou was very up there for authentic Sichuan style hotpot. The house special soup base was actually spicy and super rich from the beef lard. Also how cute is the little cow for the soup base!!! I also thoroughly enjoyed the Chicken Soup w/ Fish Maw. Literally comes with chunks of chicken. So flavorful and hearty. We got their beef and lamb platter, the seafood platter, the vegetable platter, the Deep fried dragon beard (pork), and signature fruit tea. Everything was fresh, clean and presented beautifully. The sauce bar here was very extensive and had all my favorites; very reminiscent of Haidilao sauce bar. Lots of authentic chinese cold dishes and some snacks were available too. The workers were very helpful as it was our first time there. They gave us really good recommendations and warned us about their spice levels (it's no joke). The place was super clean, bright, and had a nice modern feel. I overall really enjoyed this ala carte hotpot spot and would definitely come back! read more

I've been to one of the locations in Seattle but finally got a chance to check out the San Jose location on De Anza! Came here pretty late, around 9:30 pm on a Friday night. The restaurant was pretty empty since it was late, and we were seated right away. We ordered the house pork bone broth and the spicy soup base. The bases run for around $13, and you have to pay for the sauce / side bar separately per person. The side bar has a good variety of sauces, as well as some fruit and side vegetables. Everything is a la carte, so sometimes the bill can be higher than what you'd expect, although on par with other hot pot places. We ordered the classic pork and beef ring and lotus root, which came out pretty quickly as the restaurant wasn't that full. The bone broth was pretty decadent in flavor, while the spicy soup base was also good, although not as spicy as I'd expect it to be. The vegetables and meat were fresh and good quality. Overall, Liuyishou is a reliable a la carte hotpot chain, with many fresh menu options and a large variety. Their broth is fulfilling and they have quick service with a very chill environment. Will be back soon! read more

Came here on a weekend night at around 7, had to wait around 30-40 mins for 2 without a reservation. Parking space is very limited. We ordered the lamb and beef platter and it was a decent amount of food for 2. The meat quality is really good too. We also ordered the deeply fried pork belly which is really crunchy and crispy, with the perfect amount of flavoring. It can be a little fatty tho. The vegetables are pretty standard. The sauce bar though has a pretty wide selection imo, they have cumin sauce which I did not expect. They also have the standard cut fruits, and side dishes. The food came really fast so we were able to enjoy it on a cold night in December, would definitely visit again for their signature spicy pots!! read more
