This place is sooo pretty with a dark futuristic and butterfly garden theme. Not to mention the sauce bar is so unique with top notch service. Everything I order was really good. I'll try to list everything I remember. I started with a bone broth and added dry chilis to make it spicy. I got some appetizers and there is a shrimp dish, tuna tartare, shrimp, tempura, and a bone marrow pot I think but they're all delicious. For the hot pot I got the fatty beef and brisket plus a bunch of different vegetables and abalone lol. Everything was really fresh and delicious and I'll definitely come back here with friends next time. I also got two drinks for myself, a plum juice and a watermelon juice to cool down all the heat. I'm eating from the hot pot. Yeah, I'll have a parking lot and it's free parking. To me that is a plus! I hope this helps. Please follow me if you like my vibe. XOXO JJ.
Been eyeing this place for a while now and it worked out because it was right next to the Vuori warehouse sale. This place is beautiful inside it has gorgeous green jade colored plating. Very sophisticated and elevated. Reminds me of X Pot meets Niku X. AYCE premium hot pot for $55 ($50 for membership price//membership is $18 per year I think). We ordered the second tier which included the Wagyu truffle fried rice. Wow that was so good it filled me up! Highly recommend the truffle fried rice and the Wagyu meat was so soft and tender. The rice was so perfectly moist! I tried all the appetizers and my favorite probably was the crispy baby octopus and the juicy octopus bite. They gave a huge sauce bar that tasted really fresh with tons of appetizers and cantaloupe and cuties. We got the short plate which was a more fatty beef, the a5 Wagyu brisket that they limit to 1 per person and pork belly. The pork belly was the most meat but the a5 brisket was the most beautiful marble. I was so full ordering only 4 plates of meat. The soup is so good. I loved the chicken pepper because it had ginger in it. If you want a thicker version then the pork stomach is also a great option. Michael got a hot green tea which is so nice they serve it to you in a pot so it tasted so fresh and I got the orange green tea which wasn't too sweet and tasted very Orange! We also got their dessert cinnamon mochi which was served warm and wasn't too cinnamon-y. They also serve black sesame ice cream too! All in all, great experience and easy to find parking! The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly.
More of a 3.5 stars but the server we had was aming nice so 4 stars more for service. Pros: good for big parties with private rooms, offer individual pots table for up to 6 people vs sharing one pot. Nicely decor inside feel more luxurious, great service the day we went, meat quality. Cons: not a lot of sauce options or appetizers. Cheapest option being $35 bucks not as competitive as other ayce places. Overall the place was just decent, nothing too memorable and for the higher pricing they should offer more appetizers and options at sauce bar.
It was my first time at Prime Hot Pot and it did not disappoint, the premium hot pot restaurant that serves unlimited wagyu beef and lots of seafood options. I had to order all the wagyu I wanted to eat cause I love wagyu! There's multiple tiers at Prime and they all offer unlimited options and a self-serve sauce bar. I had the B Menu which came with a few appetizers, I liked the one bite shrimp and salmon & tuna tartare! Menu B had a limit of one order for the A5 Brisket so of course I ordered it, so fatty and tender! The short plate, chuck short rib, chuck roll, and round flat were pretty good too. I also tried the seafood platter, abalone, and fresh oysters! The abalone and fresh oysters were my favorite. Prime Hot Pot is definitely a gem in Tustin for AYCE wagyu hot pot, the interior is beautiful decorated and gives off an upscale vibe and ambiance. The service was great, the servers kept checking up on my party. Can't wait for my next visit!
This place opened up close to my house so I decided to check it out on a rainy day. Immediately upon walking in, I was greeted by a host and amazing decor. There was no wait which was nice and got seated at a booth. We ordered from Menu A and only got brisket and chuck roll. The brisket was VERY flavorful. I got mild house spicy broth and it was the perfect amount of spicy to still be enjoyable. However it was definitely spicy so be cautious of that. Overall, the place is reasonably priced and it's amazing that they have tuna tartare and baby octopus appetizers included in menu A for only $35!! Only thing that was slightly off putting was the service but we will be back!
Great hotpot place to try if you are ever in Tustin. It was our first time trying this place out since moving to Irvine and decided to give this place a try. Upon arrival we were greeted with friendly staff that sat us right away. When you get to your table it feels so spacious that it was easy to get comfortable while you eat your meal. The waitress that we had that night was great she went through the menu pretty efficient and answered all our questions . Made it easy to choose the what we wanted . There is a sauce bar where you can go and create your dipping sauces for your meats. I love how there's so many art that it was just a aww moment when you saw it. I highly recommend you try this place out if you ever are in the mood for hot pot or if it's your first time trying it. Thanks prime hotpot for excellent service and amazing food . You will see me back again soon
Walked in (without reservations) with my family. Huge place. Plenty of seating. Super nice lady and great service My kids ate free. No charge. Yay! The service was great. Lots of water next to you (in the push cart) and lots of napkins also (in the push cart at the bottom right drawer). $35 for cheapest lunch menu per person. It's all you can eat. It's so good. There are only 5 diff meats but the meats were good. The noodles were good. The rice was good. Omg I also ordered salmon sushi just to try out. So funny but their salmon sushi was fresher and more delicious than an actual sushi place! Couldn't believe how good it was. I got fish filet also. My kids love fish filet so it's always a must order for me. I got the bone broth. And also got the chicken with pork bone broth. Both of these are not spicy and awesome tasting. For meats - they'll give you a sampler plate if you ask. Which is when they'll give you 5 diff meats on one plate just to try a bit of everything. I did this to try all the meats. Towards the end, I recommend only getting the chuck roll and the beef plate. Both of these are amazing. Skip the brisket because you can get that meat anywhere. But the chuck roll hands down had the most marbling so it was nice and fatty haha. You walk up to grab / make your own sauces. They don't charge extra for making your own sauces like other hot pot places. Forgot to mention. At the very end, they give your kids free ice cream. At least they gave my kids some free ice cream lol. Vanilla or strawberry flavored. 100% milk and has a spoon inside. Loved it! I'll be back! To be honest, I prefer this place over Haidi Lao. Can't believe I'm saying that but this place is more delicious.
We had to try this place since this was a fairly new place at the Tustin District. Overall, the experience was okay. The whole experience was slightly confusing though. However, the waiter helped to answer all our questions. We opted for the B menu, which does include A5 wagyu. The quality was definitely there and all the meats tasted great, but to be totally honest, you really can't tell the difference with the american wagyu and the japanese A5 one. The service was pretty good as our waiter came around quite often, but the food was just super backed up. We waited so long for the meats to come out that we really got full as we waited and let the food sit in our stomachs. The ambience was nice and beautiful, nothing to complain about. I wish more hot pot places would adopt this kind of ambience. We'll probably be back, but will 100% stick with the cheapest option at $35 per person.
Our new goto for AYCE hot pot at Tustin District. It's definitely an experience and not cheap, but their items are high quality and they have a decent selection for what you choose. We have been here three times since Prime Hot Pot has opened. All of our visits times have been exceptional. The staff is extra friendly and helpful. The restaurant is very clean with plenty of seating. We recently joined their membership for $18 a year which gives us some member perks and discounts as well as a free birthday meal. We really enjoy their soups, brisket, fish filet, and fresh veggies. They have a great sauce bar too. Their ponzu is delicious and very addictive! Only complaint we have is that the food can take some time to arrive. We have to wait awhile for our rice and soup at one point..so be sure to order a lot of items ahead or eat some of the hot foods they have available at the sauce bar. Also, the cut of the meat is sometimes inconsistent. There are times when they melt in your mouth and other times where they're a bit chewy but still good. Nonetheless, a great addition to The District. We'll definitely be back again very soon!
We went for dinner Friday night and loved the experience. There is plenty of parking right next to the restaurant. The bright sign makes it easy to find. Inside the restaurant is one of the most beautiful hot pot restaurants you will ever see. Service here is friendly and efficient. They had great recommendations for us. We went with the B menu offering. We got the beef bone broth, which was so flavorful. They have a tablet to order from, which made it super efficient to deliver food and drinks. They have an extensive sauce bar with some helpful recipes if you don't know what to make. And by the time we got back to our table with our sauces, the appetizers and meats began to arrive. We got the salmon and caviar sushi which was very fresh and delicious. We also got the one bite shrimp and the hot stone wagyu rice. We ordered seconds on all of these. We also ordered the seafood platter and the vegetable platter for our hot pot. The shrimp, mussels, oysters, cuttlefish and fish were all fresh and delicious. The mushrooms, cabbage and pumpkin were all favorites. The marbling on the best was fantastic. Every piece melted in our mouths. We had ube ice cream and black sesame ice cream. Both were very good. The brown sugar mochi was our favorite of all the desserts and ordered a second helping. All in all it was a wonderful experience. We loved the ambiance, the service and of course all of the food. We cannot wait to come back!
*This post is only for business management and not regarding food* I got pretty excited about trying this new spot since I saw this ad on instagram about it being BOGO deal. However, when I called them they had said the BOGO deal is ONLY for people who are MEMBERS. I have never even heard of a $39.99 membership for a hotpot place before. I get it if it's a gym membership but this is quite interesting. It is honestly false advertisement on their IG post. It would have been nicer if they explained it without hiding shady information. Do better with adding more fine print. Just giving yall all a heads up. Stay safe yall.
My husband and I both got the membership two weeks ago and has been back twice for the October member BOGO promotion! It's such a great deal for such high quality A5 and American Wagyu. There are also many appetizers and sides to change things up. I love their Wagyu Truffle Stone Pot rice. It is so good when they let it crisp up in the hot stone pot! I know some people wonder if it's worth getting membership but for us we already got our money's worth with this promo that ends on 10/31. Hoping they will run more in the near future. Also shout out to the awesome staff! Everyone is so friendly and attentive. I already feel like they know us from our last several visits!
Ivan is one of those host that makes you want to come back to this restaurant. His hospitality, his energy, and his love for his customers are what makes him a genuinely good person that made my dining experience here fun and memorable. As for the food, we ordered the classic set and the food was top notch. I have been to many AYCE shabu places and this place by far has one of the best quality in meats. The sushi and seafood were fresh and the presentation was surprisingly "fancy" (which is a good thing) at an AYCE. As for the service, I was definitely impressed. I don't expect much from these types of restaurants, but all the servers were willing to either help with the menu and or place our order. They actually looked like they wanted to work there and wanted to help the customers. The only one negative is that a lot of the servers were new so they did not know what meat was being brought out. This did not negatively impact their score since I know that they just opened and it will take a little bit of time for everyone to get caught up to speed on the food.

We love this place! My dad and I ate here for lunch and tried out their Menu Set B which is about $55 per person. We mainly tried the A5 Wagyu, American Wagyu, Short Plate, Chuck Roll, Short Rib, Seafood Platter, and Vegetable Platter. We really enjoyed the Chicken & Pork Broths and the Beef Bone Broths . My dad loved the abalone option. I love how you can also make your own sauces. Everything complemented each other very well. Don't forget to order the Wagyu Truffle Stone Pot Rice. Our watermelon juices were nice and refreshing. The quality of the food, and the service was wonderful. I love the ambiance of the place. It's very dim lit and moody. It also gives off a fancy vibe, which make it great for dates or even business meetings. As for the dessert, the Black Sesame and Ube ice creams were lovely, and the Brown Sugar Mochi was so good. There's free parking in The District plaza. Big thanks to Kenny for taking care of us. He was holding it down by himself, and still showed us exemplary service. Come check this place out soon! read more

We gave jt a try since it's new....safe to say we probably won't be coming back unfortunately. Overall we just didn't have a good experience. I didn't appreciate everyone automatically speaking Chinese to us, yes we are Asian but please realize that not everyone who is Asian going to hot pot is Chinese. This happened multiple times and every time we had to say we aren't Chinese. On top of it there was a 2 party group next to us who was, from the sounds of it, arguing very loudly in Chinese...like this is completely normal behavior during dinner....it was awkward and uncomfortable and personally a first time dining experience that I would never want again. But the staff seemed completely unphased by this type of behavior. There was no flow to service...it was our first time, there was no offer to explain the menu or what to do. Veggies, meat, and sides all came out before our broth so we were sitting there for awhile waiting. The spring rolls are actually veggie egg rolls, decent but not what I was expecting. The shrimp tempura and fries - hard pass Broths we picked were mushroom and wagyu bone - good picks Meats - we chose different cuts of wagyu from the basic menu, they were good but again nothing to phone home about No offer to refill sodas or water, constantly having to ask Overall, just not a great experience on any level, there are better ACYE hotpots or even non-AYCE hotpots out there with better food and better service. Maybe it's because they're new and still trying to work out a lot of kinks, but for now we'll be going elsewhere read more

The food was excellent and the service was just as good! The ingredients here are high quality! You must get the spicy pot and the non spicy pot. Both soup bases are the super good. The base for the soup is made from beef. The interior is really nice and gives off luxurious vibes. Would definitely come back to celebrate another special occasion. read more

Been coming here since it opened and it is probably my favorite hotpot restaurant in all of California! The food quality here is top tier and the service is even better! I wanted to give a shoutout to Kenny, Henry, Yono for always taking care of me when I stop by. Their excellent service and the quality of this establishment is the reason why I only go to this place for hotpot. If you're looking to take someone on a date here like I just did today or just eat with family this is the go to spot. 10/10 read more

I spent $80 on two memberships just for it to be useless now. We came during their buy 1 get 1 free promotion on IG but once we asked for the check they removed the posting and said it was not valid. They offered us these vouchers instead, but said we would have to pay full price on the meal instead of the member price. The member price was only cheaper by $5-15 total so we said okay and paid the full price even though we both bought a membership the previous time. They gave us these vouchers but when we returned to dined the following time they would not accept the vouchers and said that they decided to cancel them and that they're useless now. Then the girl proceeded to say even if you could use it, it was only valid on the $139.99 menu option which is not stated anywhere. I just feel like every time I've dined here I've been scammed by them and service sucks. The girl assisting me wasn't even apologetic for the messed up, but instead just said you can't use and didn't explain anything. I even convinced my other 2 friends to buy a membership last time we dined but It's basically useless now. From now on I would recommend going to Waygu house in Rowland height for better service and food. I can't wait until Chubby cattle in Diamond jamboree opens up, I've been to their locations in Las Vegas and LA and both were delicious read more

Very confusing membership policy. Sign up July 22th, wonderful service. Come back August 11th. They said they can't find my membership. Waitlist says ready in 10 mins, waited 1hour to be seated. So angry how they solve the problem. Waste of money. 真的大骗子，千万别买会员。第一次感觉真的很好，就买了会员。一个月后啥啥都不好，响铃卷都被取消了。等了一个小时啥都没处理好，不吃了，真冤种。 read more

Prime Hot Pot is a must eat if you're in the area!! The hot pot here is so good. It's lowkey better than Hai Di Lao. There's a bunch of sauce options too. The soup base is so good too. I usually don't like the soups at hot pot restaurants but this one was genuinely so good. There's so many options of things you can add in the soup too. The meat here is super high quality too. You won't be able to get this quality at other hot pots. If you come you have to order the wagyu stone pot rice and the hot pot noodles. We ordered the beef broth soup and it was so yummy. The service here is so good too! My cup was not empty once. They constantly check up on you and make sure everything is going well. The ambiance is super nice too. It looks like they took their time on the design of this place. It's definitely a place you can take someone to on a date. I will definitely be back. read more

The wait was too long, I got here at 6:30PM. Yelp showed a 20-minute wait, but we were on hold for a good two hours. They told me there are two ways to make an appointment, and that the one made by phone would be prioritized over the one made through Yelp. read more

The food was amazing, There is no way you will leave hungry. Authentic Chinese Hot Pot. The decor is upscale, and they have individual rooms for large parties. Even the regular tables are tucked away and make you feel like you have a personal space. No sharing pots, the pots are individual ones built into the tables. The service was exceptional. They really wanted to make you happy, and service was on their minds. Thank you for a wonderful dinner. Did I mention everything is brought to your table? You can order and get some condiments on your own, but the appetizer, dinner, and deserts were all you can eat. read more

It makes no sense so it's a bit difficult to explain, but essentially they send you promotions/deals via text when you sign up to be a member. I think we got buy one get one free per person (it's priced per head) just to sign up.
