This is an all you can eat experience, so come hungry! Picture it like The Melting Pot. You get an individual pot of boiling broth of your choice right on your table. From there, you tell them what proteins, vegetables, seafood, and noodles you want... and they keep them coming. You cook everything yourself and to your liking right at your table. If you sit towards the middle of the restaurant, there's actually a conveyer belt that you can grab veggies and noodles off of! If you sit towards the exterior, you'll order that with the server. They also have a sauce bar to make any type of dipping sauces you'd like. They have a small freezer with a few different ice creams for dessert, too. My personal favorite was the spicy beef and their dumplings. I believe it was around $43 a person, but for all you can eat, I think that's reasonable. read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

It was at a good location. Street parking or just go park at the mall. The waiter was extra super nice when we came in for dinner on a rainy night. The conveyor was carrying mainly vegetables. The meats were alright. They were not fast enough bringing out the meats that we ordered but it was okay since it was a busy night there. Expected :) we had a good time and would come back when in town again. read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

I had never had hot pot before, and our waiter generously explained the set up and timing. We had the Tom Yum broth and the spicy broth - recommendation: just get the Tom Yum and make your dipping sauces spiced to your liking. We were conservative in our initial order of meats and seafood and still felt like we over-ordered, until we ate our way through everything we got. Highly recommend the shrimp paste, which seems counter intuitive, but was one of the more delicious items. I am coming back to try more things, as There is a broad menu and I didn't try things outside of my normal scope. It would be nice if they had a photo guide to what is passing by on the conveyer belt like some other restaurants do for items that may not be recognizable to novices. The decor is awesome, clean, and light. The lights have adorable succulents in them, and the conveyer is magnetic which makes watching the food scroll by impossible to ignore! read more

We came to this place with our friends, 10 in total. Every one enjoyed the food. The service was very attentive. Food was fresh. Sliced lamb was a hit. Many choices. Sauce station had many choices too. My 8 year old son would not eat any "normal food", the restaurant allowed him to eat his packed chicken nuggets. The lady host and waitress were so nice that they even let him to get an ice cream to make him happy. We definitely will come again. read more

I went for their opening week twice when they had 50% off. The normal price/person is pretty standard for an AYCE (all you can eat) restaurant. For those of y'all who aren't familiar with hotpot, you pick your soup base and you add whatever raw protein/veggies/noodles/etc you want (then wait a few min as it cooks), as much as you want. You can refill your soup base when it gets low. Hotpot is a favorite family/friend/large gathering tradition and those who haven't tried it are missing out. This restaurant has built-in personal pots in the table so you can have your own hotpot and control the temperature yourself. There's a conveyer belt and a menu with everything listed. First time going was one of the first days, not super crowded (I think not many people knew about it), they were well stocked with all the dishes you can add. Waitstaff was very polite. 10/10 experience. Second time they were much busier and they ran out of some options, which is understandable given they had so many customers and it was their opening weekend. But they also forgot that they took our orders (they later explained their machine that took orders to give to kitchen froze) so we waited forever until it was figured out. Since it was so crowded it was hard to flag down waitstaff (also understandable given how crowded it was). But I definitely recommend going during off-peak hours. The conveyor belt most had things people didn't really want like lettuce but you can just ask the waitstaff for what you want and they will bring it to you. There is an area in corner where you can get and mix your own sauces/seasonings/etc. On your way out they had this pepe candy thing which was both really good for free restaurant candy and funny with all the pepe memes, lol. Later I found that you can buy a pack of these at H smart or one of those Asian grocery stores in that area. Parking - there is street parking aplenty and there's also a parking lot (one entrance is directly across from Towson Hot Bagels storefront) read more

Instead of ordering items a la carte for your hot pot, this place uses a conveyor belt delivery system; just grab what you want as it zips by. The staff is super-friendly and the overall buzz seemed to be happy and upbeat. If you have a food allergy, your pot is yours so you don't have to worry about your dining partners contaminating yours. Included with the all-you-can-eat items, is ice cream for dessert. Save some room! read more

My favorite place. I wish I could go every week. Fresh ingredients. With friendly, fast service. I've had a couple of the broths, so far they are all great. I love that they have so many condiments so you can customize your hot pot. They even have small desserts, some fruits and ice cream. I wouldn't say it's a great spot for kids as the broth can get very hot, but that depends on the kid. Overall I would recommend this experience. This is a great place to try. read more

We received a Valpak coupon in the mail today that included an offer for a free birthday dinner. Only requirements were that you had to bring your ID, the coupon and your birthday had to have been within 3 days of the visit. Score! Jeremy's birthday was Thursday. We had been wanting to try this place, but at $26 per person for dinner, this seemed a bit much to spend on a concept we weren't convinced we would like. When we got there, we showed our server the coupon. She came back a few minutes later and said that we needed to have 3 people in our party for them to honor it. Oh, I must have missed that in terms... I looked again... nope, nowhere on there. They did offer us 20% off, but I wasn't willing to give money to a restaurant that wouldn't honor a deal they sent us. We walked out. We ended up spending more money than we would have spent at New Generation at The Green Turtle, but I did so happily. Did I mention that I work nearby and walk by it every day? Did I mention that I immediately texted a handful of my coworkers about the experience. This could have gone so differently... read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Coupon they wouldn't honor - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

Came with my brother for the first time and it was good, he did the ordering cause it was my first time and everything was good. The little rotating bit with the sides was well stocked and yummy. read more

It's all you can eat and a great place for a date! Service was great and fast. Only thing I would suggest is that the pictures on the screen you select from are somewhat hard to tell what they will look like when they're cooked, but doesn't take away this is still a 5 star place. read more

Hot pot is one of my favorite cuisines, and New Generation does it just great. Each person has their own small hot pot which helps with groups with mixed food preferences (meat/no meat, spicy/no spicy, etc.). I opted for the mushroom broth, and then an assortment of meats, vegetables, and noodles, but my absolute favorite being the brisket. It's really important to make sure you have a great dipping sauce. In the front they have a station to create your own sauces with some recipes in case you don't know any. I used their recipes and they worked out just perfect. Will definitely be going back next time I'm in town. read more

Just dont go here. (UPDATE IN SEE MORE, AT BOTTOM NOW 2/14/21)The people who work here are very judgmental and I can tell that they whisper and gossip and judge customers. They not charge gratuity for 4 people which is a complete SCAM! These people judge and charge with no notice and then give you the snobbiest service. What a joke. And the fact that they then want more tip is ridiculous. You can not choose the tip here and im calling the Better Business Bureau. The waiter we had was a complete snob and she did NOT deserve a 17$ tip that we had no choice but to give!!! Im calling the bureau and possibly irs or whoever I need to. Avoid this scam!!!!! Update: I went to the baltimore county health dept, the chamber of commerce, and possibly local authorities to uncover what is going on here. After reading online, charging automatic gratuity without notice is illegal so I had to report it to authorities. By law there must be notice on menus or in person at location or with notice by a staff member and this place did none of those. Also being that the bathroom is next to the half curtain that is the door for the kitchen, air and germ particles easy and definitely cross between the two and possibly contaminate food. They also serve food still FROZEN on the table as if we need to defrost it ourselves. Just dont go to this place lol. Its nothing but trouble. read more

This was a family event so everyone came out it was about 8-10 of us this place is great for groups we were seated at 2 tables on either side of the conveyor belt so that we could all see each other. Be where I believe they charge for water. This place has something for everyone but just be aware of some of the updates they have parking for this location at the library parking lot so you don't have to pay make sure you check that out. The all you can eat isn't $25.99 but now bumped up to $27.99 ! They've also added crawfish and lobster to the menu to that's an extra $13 as well. We were served as fast as 5 people working on the floor can. Queen we first arrived there was only a handful of people but about time we left around 8:30 pm ( arrived at 5). Soo they definitely don't social distance or limit capacity which isn't good. It seemed as tho the staff kind of brushed off the smaller table we were with forgetting to bring they're stuff and only ours. But they were nice as can be. I was happy that they had quail eggs , and enoki mushrooms my favorite. This is a great place for groups because there's something for everyone meat, seafood, veggies and plenty of sides the conveyor belt was cool the tables not moving but the little plates do ! Overall my family and I really enjoyed this place between the unlimited options of sauces and food but to top it all off they have ice cream and pastries although I had one of the cream puffs and they honestly tasted like they've been there for 3 days..... but yea if you are in for a treat come here and bring everyone and leave with an overstuffed belly read more

So excited that Hotpot has come to Towson! Went on Saturday night, the place was bustling. Biggest difference about this place is that all the meats are ordered off the menu only. Some places have all the protein options laid out "buffet style" but you have to order off menu here. This means you have less control over how much/how little you get of each meat. They gave us 1 massive plate each for the 2 meats we were planning on starting out with. There was so much of those 2 meats tho, that we didnt really have a chance to try other meat becuz we didnt wanna waste any of what they had already given us. Sauce area is great to help flavor-ify your meat choices. Make sure you find out which items are extra charges when ordering off the menu! We almost accidentally got some massive clams when the clams that were on the belt were mighty enough. Will definitely come back again. read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

A good hotpot place that is a few steps away from becoming a GREAT hotpot place. New Generation is a great spin on the classic hot pot formula. For those unfamiliar, hot pot is a large boiling hot broth and an array or raw ingredients that people can drop into the broth, and pull it out minutes later when they are fully cooked, creating a fun and customization experience. New Generation offers a variety of different types of broth, with each customer getting their own personal broth. I tried the bone broth and spicy broth, and can sadly say that the bone broth came out as relatively bland. I have no complaints on the spicy broth. Next comes the selection of meats and veggies. Options are plentiful from a variety of mushrooms, seafood, beef, chicken, pork, noodles, tofu, and more. Servers come regularly to take your orders and as long as your plates are empty, you can feel free to order as much as you want. Each table is also adjacent to a cute conveyor belt that delivers a variety of hot pot treats in smaller portions. These are perfect for the impulsive customers who want to try something that's coming down the track. This little belt is the big highlight of New Generation and I would love even more items to appear on the track! To go with your hotpot is a dipping sauce bar. After placing your first order, you are encouraged to create your own sauces for the food to come. I suggest making something sweet for chicken and seafood, and something more savory for beef and pork. You should experiment and mix and match flavors to your liking. New Generation is an all you can eat establishment, so be wary of the higher than normal price. On the plus side, there is no time limit on your stay, so feel free to take your time and enjoy as much of the tasty food as you can. New Generation also offers "all you can eat dessert" as part of their meal, but this was a big let down as it consisted of some watered down rice pudding and bland tasting ice cream. Sure, it's free, but it detracts from the rest of the flavorful dishes. If New Generation wants to earn a fifth star from me, it needs to get more flavorful broths and either remove the desserts from their "all you can eat" menu or add in some more worthwhile desserts like mochi or shaved ice with toppings. It's a bit pricey, but New Generation is a great treat for you and your friends. read more

We come here at least twice a month and it's always great. Delicious hot pot with wonderful service. Great ambiance. We have tried all the hot pot places in Towson and Elliott City, and this one is our favorite. There's a sauce bar for you to make your own mix of sauces. The meat and seafood choices are plentiful. There's a fun conveyor belt filled with food as well. You get your own individual pot. And for dessert there's fresh fruit and ice cream! To cap it off, they are running a 10% off summer promotion right now. read more

New spot in Towson ... All you can eat ... Get a soup base - order meats and topping- cook - enjoy There is a conveyer belt that runs thru the middle of the rest- allowing you to grab topping and veggies for your soup- however- if you do sit at the table outside of the belt- no worries- your sever will get you all that you need I didn't like the fact that you can't change the soup base - only get 1 Desert : is ok - pre made , boxed ice cream and fresh oranges- Not great... $26- I see that this willl be an issuse for most college kids/$30 to eat... Parking is tough- no parking lot - so typical Towson I do not see this lasting ...just my prediction read more

I actually LOVE this place. I've been going to the hot pot in ellicot city, but came here because I was in the area..... and let me tell you -- THIS IS AWESOME! not only is it a great deal for all you can eat, but there is also a "kaitenzushi" style rotating platform that brings ingredients for your hot pot that you can just pick up and put in your hot pot. I tried the spicy butter and my partner tried the thai one, and the soup bases were delicious! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Thanks for showing me a great time, New Generation Hot Pot!! read more

So good! We tried their pork bone broth (non spicy for the kid) and their spicy broth. Added lamb cuts, pork belly, fatty beef, shrimp. They were incredibly generous with their meat! You can order from the menu their meat to eat but the ones marked MP (market price) are extra to the AYCE price. Then the rotating conveyor belt had all the noodles and veggies you could want. We tried their ramen, udon, vermicelli noodles and two different kinds of mushrooms. We definitely ordered too much. Their food was fresh and the broth was delicious. The spicy broth had those peppercorns that make your tongue go numb. So delicious. They also had a bunch of different dipping sauces near the front that I didn't know about. Service was ok. They were nice but not soo informative about where things were. We didn't see the dessert and sauces until we left but grabbed a few ice cream sandwiches on the way out. All in all, Towson needed this place! read more

Great place for hotpot in Towson. Heads up: It gets a bit crowded and the lunch menu is limited.

I'm a hot pot fanatic. I was happy to hear about a place opening up in Towson so I didn't have to travel all the way to Ellicott City for my hot pot cravings. I went twice during the soft opening. The price is comparable to other places as well as the selection of ingredients. First of all, the spicy soup is actually spicy and very flavorful. I would put the soup over Hot N Roll, but under Hot Pot Hero. The ingredients are pretty much standard. However, they don't let you request vegetables unlike the other restaurants I just mentioned. Some waiters insist that you get it from the revolving carousel. The problem here is some tables do not have access to the carousel (bad layout) so you have to get up and stand awkwardly by another table as you look for ingredients and snatch them in front of other guests. Be prepared to wait for some ingredients as they put them out sparingly (enoki mushrooms, fried tofu). They have a sauce bar which is good. Bowls and utensils are self-serve which is a first for me. The service can be hit or miss. My first waitress was great, consistently refilling my drink. During my second visit, not one refill from my waiter. Also, they didn't have any spoons. I was told they ran out. For a soup place? Not one customer had a spoon. Did they disappear from my first visit? I had to run to Brown Rice next door to grab some plastic spoons. This place will fill your hot pot cravings. The flavors are great, but they just need to tighten up the service portion and figure out a way to get out ingredients for everyone quickly and easily. read more

The variety of soups, and ingredients for the hot pot were really good. I wouldn't say it's the freshest and the best AYCE hot pot but it will satisfy your cravings, especially on a cold winter day. The service was good, and they had difficult honoring my coupon because it was on my phone- so maybe printing it out will be easier. The sauce bar had a bunch of different sauces you could choose from and you can mix and try new things! read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

Have been and will remain a huge fan of this place. I went recently after a year hiatus due to COVID, and can happily say that it's just as delicious and satisfying as before. There is definitely limited seating, but would still recommend people to come during off-hours to avoid people as the seating still appears close together without any additional panels (limited in space). In terms of food, during weekdays they said that everything is ordered from the table (including veggies, etc which used to be on the revolving sushi train thing) which made me feel a little better to eat there during COVID. Unsure about weekends. See a lot of complaints here about service which is odd- I think a lot of the situations are due to miscommunication? Many of the staff from my experience at least, unfortunately are not primary English speakers but they do try to provide what they can for their customers here. Anyways, just be patient with them! The food is worth it! read more

Me and my friend ordered spicy soup base. I ordered the most spicy option for the soup base but turns out to be not spicy at all. I think it's a pretty good place for all you can eat. It's 26.99/person. They have fruits, ice cream. Plenty of sauce choice. Will come back again. 4 stars because I think it's just an average good hot pot place. Didn't surprise me. read more

I guess I've just had better experience from other shabu shabu place. Seafood were frozen. I had to add flavor to the pork bone broth, service was good though! read more

I wanted to give it only one but in fairness, the food was ok. Not amazing, not really even good. Just ok. Problem one- it's pretty bland. You've gotta add quite a lot to it for it to even have flavor. Problem two- no one explains anything. The waitress seemed annoyed when we asked questions, brought our food out, slapped it on the table and left. No instruction on how to turn the pot on, no instruction on how to cook, nothing. Problem three- we wanted to bring my leftover soup home- I had a fair amount of veg and broth left. Nope- if you want to do that, you have to pay more. Dude- it's $30 a person here. I paid for food on the table, in my opinion, it's mine. And you want to now charge me a second time for the same food in front of me?? Nope. Go somewhere else. Not worth the $$. We'll never go back. read more

I love this place!!!! I waited ~30 minutes to be seated, but it was no big deal considering I went on a Saturday night. Reservations are available. There were many tables: some were attached to a rotating bar that had ingredients, and others were against the wall. You can order anything you want and not pay any extra money, except if you have any left over meat or want to buy a beverage other than water. Don't order everything at once and instead order more as time goes on. There were so many ingredients on the menu. Everything we got was of great quality and the restaurant was clean. The pork bone and mushroom broth were both good. There is a sauce station at the front left. It has various types of sauces, as well as toppings that you can dip your meat/vegetables in. Across from the sauce station is ice cream (I saw coffee, strawberry, vanilla, and ice cream sandwiches). The service was excellent. My waiter was Ethan and he was very helpful. He recommended his favorite sauce and helped explain my questions in full detail. He was also attentive but not too over bearing. Definitely going to be a regular spot read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Sliced fatty beef, dumplings, crispy pork belly, broccoli, shiitake mushrooms - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

Went to new gen to celebrate a birthday with intentions of enjoying a meal or at least having a decent one. I ordered the spicy pot without realizing how "hot" or seasoned it may be. Usually I order tons of spicy things so it surprised me when it caused my throat to swell up as a reaction. No big deal, maybe it is not for me. I request a different broth and it is $4.99 extra...Which isn't that bad but it wasn't in my favor. There was a language barrier which is important to note, but I agreed and confirmed about three times that I just wanted a different broth because it wasn't giving me the best reaction. Instead he brought a diluted version of the broth. So a mixture of bone broth and the spicy and told me if I wanted to get mild I could request it. Thanks but that wasn't the problem. Later my husband started having swelling and discomfort from the spiced beef and these seeds they have in it. We voiced our discomfort to a manager.. more so the same waiter as the other women just left him to talk to us. He was kind, but I couldn't enjoy my meal at all.. There were no compensations or anything to say they were making sure one of us were enjoying it or trying to fix the actual problem. Needless to say it was a wasted money on a meal one of us did not eat much of. They also charge 18% gratuity btw. read more

I have been here three times now since July and had a good experience each time. If this is yiur first time, I recommend coming at lunch time for the cheaper price (17.99 vs 25.99). Broth: I love the tomato broth. The tom yum broth is not traditional but tasty. The Sichuan broth is excellent ma la flavor, u can ask them to adjust the spicy ness for you The tender beef and lamb are the best meat options. Traditionally crab is added in the broth for flavor so they don't have much meat on them. Make sure to try the wide variety of veggie options! Frozen tofu, quail egg, Chinese spinach, clear glass noodle, dried tofu skin, etc. the house made dumplings are actually super delish and worth a try. The sauce bar can seem overwhelming but for a simple classic recipe, get sesame sauce with some pickled chives and a splash of the house sauce. Grab another bowl for a spicier mix - house sauce, minced garlic, chili oil , cilantro. You can't go wrong no matter what combination you pick. Staff is friendly and overall pretty clean. I'm always impressed at how fresh the ingredients are. Really fun place to bring friends and family. I do wish they didn't blast the music as loudly but the younger crowds may not mind it :) read more

Been here a few times now, all at different times of day, and it's been excellent every time! The service is good, the ingredients on the conveyor belt are fresh (if not a little adventurous at times) and the broths themselves are delicious. I've never had an issue with the waitstaff or with times, everyone has been very accommodating. My only real reservations come with some of the selection - not all of the ingredients are on the conveyor at times (which is usually resolved by asking for them!) and the scallion bucket is usually a little low. I highly recommend both the spicy broth (which is actually spicy) and the pork bone. The pork bone is the plain stuff, but if you head over to the sauces bar, you can flavour it yourself and that's the best part! The lamb and fatty beef are also excellent choices. I'm only taking a star off because out of everything, I wish there was rice. I wish there was rice so bad. I would die for some with my meal - putting that flavourful meat and broth on some rice? Hell yeah. The price is definitely standard and worth it - though during weekday lunchtime, they have a special. Excellent overall and highly recommend! read more

We where looking for something different to eat, I did a search for sushi, this restaurant came up. I figure why not let's try it? We got there the ambience was great! The place is super clean. What caught my attention was the conveyor belt with all the sides circulating throughout the restaurant. To our surprise this is an all you can eat restaurant! We ordered the spicy broth, meats, and sea food. Everything was great, the sides running around the conveyor were fresh and tasty. We had a great time and do dinner. We cannot wait to come back again, this is an awesome place to eat. read more

New Generation Hot Pot - Hot Pot Near Me - Towson, Maryland

The $28.99 per person charge is sooooo not worth it; broth/ soup varieties are not good, missing that savory umami taste of an authentic Japanese or Korean flavor. And the worse part is they DEMAND for you to tip (although we know and understand AND WOULD TIP!) at a specific rate/percentage (we were told minimum of 15%), and I'm not even talking about their required 18% gratuity if you're a group of 5. I really would not mind giving even 50% tip IF!!!! we got great experience - of super tasty food ana superb service. More so, I didn't even finish half of my bowl. That's how "blah" the taste was. NEVER EVER WOULD I GO BACK even if you give me half price off. Or free. Thanks, but no thanks. Super disappointed. read more

For $25.99 New Generation Hot Pot delivers the typical all you can eat experience that you expect. The food here, while good, isn't anything more than what you'd typically expect from a place like this. Their options of meat and seafood, tofu, and veggies and noodles are about the same as any other place, with the quality being one that you'd expect (not the greatest but you can't complain because it's unlimited). One plus that they do have is the rotating conveyor belt means that you can grab some things without having to go through the hassle of ordering more with the server. That way you can top off your meal with veggies, tofu, and some seafood easily and quickly. The only downside to this is that what's on the belt can vary, and your seating placement matters a lot because depending on where you sit you might never see some items because everyone ahead of you will pick it up. Between what my friends and I got, we tried the spicy soup and the bone broth and both were okay. It wasn't great or packed with a lot of flavor, and by the end of the meal with all the broth added throughout the meal the spicy soup just wasn't spicy anymore. I wish their broths were better because that's a thing that a lot of places don't do well and an easy way to stand out. As for service the moment we got there we were served really quickly. Every time we ordered something we got it super quick. It was really good, dare I say, maybe the best service I've had at an all you can eat hot pot place? I felt like this was one thing that made New Generation Hot Pot memorable among the sea of hot pot places you'll find. Another plus is that when ordering what you want, the portion sizes they give you are actually reasonable, I don't feel like they're small or stingy just for the purpose of making you eat less, a huge plus!! In my book, New Generation Hot Pot is a: 3.5/5 for Food 5/5 for Service 4/5 for Atmosphere read more

The joy of hot pot has finally arrived in Baltimore and New Generation brings the food and fun in a big way! We hit them up for lunch before a movie at our beloved Cinemark Towson. We arrived at noon as they were opening and were seated immediately next to the conveyor belt. A friendly server explained the experience and we put in our broth and initial food orders. Then it was off to the sauce bar to create our personal condiment. I went for the Tom Yum broth and daughter went pork bone and wife opted for the mushroom. The broths were rich and flavorful and as the came to a boil the fun began. Beef, lamb, dumplings, clams, shrimp, fish balls, tofu and shrimp paste (our favorite). We also had a few different types of mushrooms, spinach, Napa cabbage, kabocha squash (takes a long time, but super yummy) and sponge tofu. We liked the conveyor belt aspect because it provided a continuous choice of small portioned, interesting options to add to the ordered items. Service was top notch and the $17.99 price for lunch was a great deal. Now that (Hot) pot is legal in Maryland, get yours before it's gone. read more

Visited Next Gen for the first time recently! We went hungry in order to get the best out of the All You Can Eat menu, and it was worth the wait for the amount of food! Lots of options for meats, seafood, and veggies/noodles/tofu, and each order comes in a small size so you can try tons of different things. I personally was a big fan of the lamb meat (got like 3 orders of it) and the crab meatballs. There were several broth options (We had the mushroom and the spicy broths, the mushroom was a little bland but spicy was great), the sauce bar allows you to customize your flavors even more, and there are also lots of fruits and ice cream that you can get that come with the AYCE menu. I do wish there was an option to have the seafood that you order come cleaned/deshelled/ready to eat since I wasn't expecting to have to peel my shrimp or prepare squid (it had an eye on it?) before eating it. Although their meats were clearly high quality and fresh, I think some of their vegetables looked a little wilted. I think the main issue with this location is just the price--it's $31 with the all-you-can-eat menu for dinner with an automatic 18% tip, although there aren't a lot of services involved (there's a revolving conveyor belt where you can grab stuff for yourself, the sauce bar is self serve, ice cream and fruit is self serve, etc.). Also, although it is advertised as all-you-can-eat, you still have to pay extra for drinks, and some meat/seafood/broth options cost extra, which I don't think is what all you can eat is for. Overall a fun experience, but I'm not sure if I would come again. read more

"Blackpink in your area" Seriously whoever is manning the music here played Blackpink and Brittany Spears throughout my entire all you can eat hotpot lunch. Not that I'm complaining. When I saw that Towson had a Hotpot restsursnt I became so excited. Hotpot everything! New Generation is tucked on York Road and is easy to miss so be on the look out. Its on the same side of the street as the CVS. New Generation is a mixture of a few different hotpot optiond. Through out the middle of the restahrant they have a conveyor belt that has hot pot add in options. You can request whatever you want from the menu from your waiter and the waiter will bring out more as soon your table even kind of looks empty. They have a sauce and season bar. I swear the sauces are saltier then I'm used to but I'm not clear on the brands they used. They also have desserts fruit cake pudding etc. At the sauce bar. They have a ton of options available for bowls, spoons, tongs, etc. in case you need extras. I like the abundance of options ay New Generation. They have more soup base options then normal. Some places may have 3 or 4 soup base options but they had about 6 soup options one of which was Tom Yum. They also have more drink options then usual, like the chrysanthemum tea. All my favorite vegetable options including the seaweed knots and pumpkin are present and they halve lots of proteins, including duck feet and lamb. The servers were nice and efficient. Overall New Generation is great. What a welcome addition to Towson and I can't wait to drop by on my next visit. I'm even starting to like Blackpink. Who knew. read more

Exciting new addition to the Towson food scene which has been lacking Asian food options for over 20+ years. The quality of the meats and variety of hot pot staples was impressive and one of the best AYCE hot pot establishments in the Baltimore area. The customer service is always worth noting, our waiter was helpful, kind and funny and stopped in to check often to make sure broth and orders were well maintained. Definitely recommend for those who enjoy hot pot and live in the Baltimore area! Note - they also validate Towson library and Cinemark garages, but not the adjacent Towson Commons parking. read more

Yes! It's all you can eat hot pot until they rush you out with a check in less than an hour on a not so busy Sunday afternoon.
