amazing food! Steaming broths bubbled at our table while we dipped paper-thin beef, fresh shrimp, and crisp veggies into rich, fragrant soup. The dipping sauces were a highlight, and the service kept everything moving smoothly. A warm, fun, and deeply satisfying meal experience. read more

Qiao Lin Hotpot - Atlanta - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Had a really great experience at QL Hot Pot. They offer a ton of options, so it's easy to build exactly the kind of meal you're craving. The service was excellent the whole time, and the staff kept everything moving smoothly. The restaurant itself is clean, airy, and bright, which makes the whole meal feel even more enjoyable. The only thing I'd point out is that the bathroom is a bit small for how big the restaurant is, but it wasn't a dealbreaker. One perk you shouldn't miss: dessert is free. Definitely take advantage of that before you leave. Overall, a great spot with lots of choices, great service, and a comfortable atmosphere. I'd happily come back. read more

There are plenty of parking spots in the plaza if the spaces directly in front of the restaurant are full. My family went for an early dinner around 5 PM, so the restaurant was mostly empty, with only two other occupied tables. However, while we were dining, the place filled up quickly. The restaurant is clean, bright, and well decorated, with plenty of seating options, including private dining rooms and open seating areas. There is a sauce bar and a dessert bar featuring fruit, candies, sweet soups, and more. The sauce bar costs $4 per person, which also includes access to the dessert bar. I'm still not sure how they keep track of who uses the sauce bar and how many people in a group choose to use it, or if they simply charge based on the number of people at the table. The service was very friendly and attentive. It also helped that we arrived before the dinner rush, so the menu was explained thoroughly and the server answered all of our questions. They also give you disposable hot pot bib and gloves. In addition to hot pot, they offer a variety of other dishes, as well as separate drink and dessert menus. At the end of the meal, they give you a complimentary ice cream bar. The flavors available during our visit were ube, mango, and melon. These are packaged ice cream bars rather than scooped ice cream served in a cup. They tasted good, although I wish they offered a chocolate flavor as well. You can choose a single pot, a half-and-half pot, or a triple pot, all for the same price. We chose the half-and-half option with the herbal broth and golden chicken broth. Both were flavorful and delicious. Since it was our first visit, we ordered the seafood combo, mushroom combo, freshly cut short rib, instant noodles, and the Lady M matcha cake for dessert. The broths were excellent, and the ingredients were very fresh, which is one of the most important factors in a good hot pot experience. My family was completely full by the end of the meal, and we all had a great experience. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be back whenever we're in the mood for hot pot! read more

Qiao Lin Hotpot is the cool new spot in Metro Atlanta. It's trendy. It's got legitimately very high-quality ingredients. It's packed to the brim and busy every day. It has incredible over-the-top presentation that is very influencer-friendly. And, it has some of the worst service I've ever received. My family went here for my stepmom's birthday. She loves this place and the chain, which apparently has roots in Chongqing. I have no doubt in my mind that the Chongqing location is amazing. I have no doubt the Chicago location probably is also great. The Qiao Lin Hotpot in Atlanta is disorganized and chaotic. The service team completely forgot quite a few different items that we ordered. Our last item didn't arrive to our table until an absurd 1 hour after we had placed the order. We reminded them periodically that we were still waiting, but they seem to have deprioritized us. Qiao Lin Hotpot is an upscale place for hotpot. The ambiance will one day settle into something great as the staff learns to not move around chaotically doing a whole lot of nothing. The service will one day get better with the staff learning to be organized and not forget items that diners have ordered. I am truly rooting for this place to succeed. All that said, service plays an outsized role in your experience at a hotpot establishment. The rather poor service that my family received has convinced me to not return for at least a year. Hopefully by that point this place will figure out how to provide good service. read more

I've tried Qiao Lin in Chicago before and loved my experience, and it was no different here! They have such an incredible spread and selection of sauces, candies, snacks, etc. and everything is so high quality. Their service is incredible, the establishment is super bright and clean, and they even give ice cream at the end! I had such a blast eating here, and we all left feeling incredibly full. Note that this place isn't AYCE, but honestly, you won't complain. It'll always be a phenomenal meal! read more

First time here and overall a solid hotpot place! You pay one flat amount for the hotpot soup bases (can choose multiple) and then pay per plate for meats, veggies, etc. There is also a small fee for the sauce bar. I ordered the 1 meter beef (which is the beef belly cut), Australian Kobe beef, and avocado mango smoothie with the spicy and mushroom soup bases. The food came out relatively fast and the Australian Kobe beef was quite good, super tender after cooking! But at that price, I felt the portion was a little small. The beef belly was also good, especially for the price, but wasn't really high quality which is what I would expect for a pay per plate hotpot style. Solid but not special. The drink menu is quite extensive and was pretty good, really liked the avocado mango smoothie as it had a slightly yogurt taste but had flavors that really complemented each other! Broth flavors were also solid, but towards the end the spicy broth became very oily and it was hard to sift through all the small chopped peppers and peppercorns that were mixing with the meat. Overall a solid hotpot place in terms of food! The waiters would visit and check in a good amount and were really friendly. They also refilled the hotpot bases with the correct specific soup instead of a generic one, which a lot of other places do not do. Newly opened, the area is really spacious and also up to date! Again a solid hotpot place with quite a large range of options for meat, drinks, etc read more

Qiao Lin Hotpot - Atlanta - Great hot pot spot with big portions so bring family and friends! I got the passion fruit fizz and it was delicious! - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

The service is fast and there's a good amount of seating, so it's ok for larger groups. They have an extensive sauce bar that also has desserts and sides (there are two areas and they're different)! For the actual food, nothing was standout and if anything, the tripe didn't feel all that fresh. The cut of beef was too thick so it became tough to eat. read more

Came for dinner and we got three soups to try! It was $13! We got chicken, tomato and the spicy beef tallow. The spicy broth was sooo oily! Even from the picture you could just see the oils. And the chicken one was not very flavorful. The tomato was probably the best one. The food took over an hour to arrive! And by the time it had arrived half the soup was already boiled away. And my drink never arrived at all. The meat was pretty fresh I would say. I wish for the price you get more vegetables though. A small vege platter was $10. My favorite items were the fish and the shrimp paste. The sauce bar is also $4 per person. Not really worth it in my opinion as th appetizer bar was slim. Overalll, the service was friendly though he was very busy and never stopped by till we asked. They definitely need either more servers or people in the back. Because we spent a total of 3.5 hours there and most of it was just waiting for the food. read more

(4.5) meat quality and food quality in general is insane.. so GOOD! Since it's not an all you can eat, I wish they had more vegetable platters because with 2 people it's kinda hard to get all the vegetables you want especially when it's by order... but if a large group is there you will have an easier time ordering. Portions here are HUGE! Service is great as well. Def would come back read more

Qiao Lin Hotpot - Atlanta - Chinese Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Is this new famous hotpot restaurant worth the hype? Yes, I have been to one of their Chicago locations with associates visiting from China before, so I was interested in how the Duluth location compared. Everyone knows that Duluth is where you visit for an authentic and delicious meal. So, there is definitely competition in the area for hot pot. What makes this business special? Elevated broth quality, sweet soups on sauce bar, modern atmosphere, tea menu, and meats sliced fresh to order. Should I visit here? Yes, definitely visit if you are a hotpot conissour, have a party of 4-6 people, don't mind making reservations, and have at least $50+ per person to spend. What I tried: Sauce Bar - Not used to a "sauce bar" costing money, but this one was $3.99/person to make your own sauce. It was missing peppercorn oil, and black vinegar, but the other ingredients were acceptable. Also, the bar includes fruit, and tongsui 糖水, as well as some cold dishes. Broth - My favorite foodie @nails_summeryang recommended their 花胶鸡 = Huā jiāo jī (fish maw chicken soup) broth base to me, so I had to try it. it was rich, like a salted egg yolk flavor. Other broths are Chongqing Spicy Broth, Tomato, Mushroom, Herbal Chicken, Pepper Pork Tripe, Thai Tom Yum, and Hot Sour Golden. My favorite, as always expected, was the Hot Sour Golden. Meat - I had the One Meter Sliced Beef for $12.95. Note that most meats are sliced to order, which you can watch live at the counter. The meats here vary in price, starting with lowest being around $12. The meat serving is much larger than expected, and was very filling. Meatball - For hotpot, my favare always fresh meatballs, not frozen. Which I prefer over dumplings because the filling is what is important, right? So, I tried the Beef & Cilantro, as well as my favorite shrimp paste. Bubble Tofu - This is their special tofu skin wide shape, like a noodle. The tofu skin has bubbles that form on the surface when cooked, hence the name. Vegetables - Standarsld fare of veg to choose from, overpriced so you will see customers ordering more meat than veg. Desserts - The dessert menu is not necessary, as there are so many desserts on the sauce bar, but I couldn't keep myself from ordering the fried sweet rice cakes. Drinks - Large tea and drink menu, but I was already over budget, so just sipped provided water and broth instead. Special Dishes - This section of the menu is honestly where you should order from. read more

Lots of options to enjoy, the only thing if I should point out would be chongqing broth, which was a bit rough to handle for myself. One of my friends was enjoying the broth, don't get me wrong Golden chicken broth was the best option for me to enjoy fyi. You should try out short rib and shrimp paste, it is so delicious! read more

On a Saturday night, our wait was 30 minutes (estimated was 55). Definitely join the waitlist ahead of time. The broths were good! We got spicy (level 2), tomato, and golden chicken. My fiancé usually likes spicy food, but he said he would get the level 1 next time. For meat, we got the one meter beef, the cilantro beef meatballs, the beef skewers, the fish tofu, and quail eggs. He liked the one meter beef the best, and I'm a big fish tofu fan. I would skip the meatballs next time- they had an interesting texture that I didn't like. The beef skewers also tasted a bit gamey, so we will probably skip next time too. We also got the veggie platter which had a nice variety, and we liked the udon with our meal. They ran out of rice though, so that was kind of sad. Overall, a good experience. A clean, nice place with an attentive waiter. & now we know what we like! read more

My friend and I tried this place after seeing it on TikTok and I am so glad we did. We got the 3 part pot with the golden chicken, mild sichuan and the hot and sour. We way over ordered but they allowed us to take it home in to go which was greatly appreciated. I have tried all lot of hot pot places and this one really stood out for good service and flavors. I would recommend this for both newbies to hotpot and seasoned veterans. read more

Excellent food and service. Everything was fresh, and the broths were packed with flavor

When I got there at opening, I waited for a bit for walk-in and I got sat at a spacious table. It was pretty straightforward how to order and where the sauce and appetizer bar was. I ordered a mix of beef and seafood and vegetable platter, definitely more than for 1 person. The music was nice. The ambience was great. I'm definitely bringing people next time with me. Customer service could use some work but during soft opening, that's completely normal. read more
