It's a classic pricing " bait and switch scam". I ordered over the phone. I used the menu from yelp that was their original menu with prices.

I showed them to the cashier and he just argued with me. I WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE AGAIN‼‼ I highly recommend that you stay away from this FRAUDULENT restaurant also.

I cannot think of a single thing that would have improved my luncheon experience…read more I was greeted immediately and invited to sit anywhere I ordered a $15 lunch special: Sichuan Crispy Fish that came with a mound of steamed rice and an exquisite spring roll -- crispy and packed with flavor My best decision was to upgrade for $2 for a cup of the best hot and sour soup EVER Please overlook the neighborhood and take a shot at some genuine Sichuan food Note --the crispy fish was really spicy, so don't ask for more spice The portion was so generous that I would have hade the leftover boxed, but I was staying at a hotel, so sadly had to say goodbye to at least a third if not a half of what they served me Also there were only two other tables occupied when I got there at opening time (11:00am) but it was clear they also do a brisk take out business If you want the real deal in great Chinese food, don't pass this one up if you are in downtown!

We discovered Big Hey Hot Pot by chance while grocery shopping at a nearby market, and we're so…read moreglad we decided to give it a try. It turned out to be a wonderful surprise! I really like the individual hot pot concept. You get to pick exactly what you want--vegetables, meat, seafood, noodles, and other ingredients--then choose your own soup base. The experience is a little like Mongolian barbecue because you select your own ingredients, but instead of grilling them, everything is cooked in your personal hot pot. The price is based on the weight of the ingredients you choose. It's also similar to traditional Chinese hot pot, except everyone gets their own pot instead of sharing one. I actually prefer this because everyone can enjoy a different soup base and customize their meal without having to compromise. I ordered the No. 6 spicy dry pot (without broth) and chose the mild spice level. It had a nice kick without being overwhelmingly spicy. My husband chose the tomato soup base, which had a rich, delicious flavor. He practically finished the entire bowl of broth and commented that it felt like such a healthy, comforting meal with all the vegetables he added. Overall, we had a great dining experience. The food was flavorful, the staff were friendly and attentive, and we loved the fun, customizable dining concept. We'll definitely be coming back and would happily recommend Big Hey Hot Pot to anyone looking for a delicious and unique hot pot experience.

We came early on a Wednesday night and were the only ones here. What was good and bad? First let me say, we asked for help with ordering. The server couldn't understand why I was confused. I said I wanted the braised pork wide flat noodle and showed him the photo on Yelp. He told me to select stir-fry, then spicy pork flat noodle. I explained I didn't want spicy, he said it's not spicy then pushed the "less spicy" option. When the dish arrived, you could see the red peppers and it definitely was spicy! It was tasty but very spicy! My husband got the Mongolian beef which he said was good - he selected "no spicy". The only downside was it does not come with rice. Just Mongolian beef and lots of onions. We also ordered the bbq bao - do not order this - the dough was really "off" in both texture and flavor. I literally spit it out as did my husband. We'd come back but we'd be better prepared to order and we'd be way more cautious with what we order.

The portion…read moresizes are generous and the service was quick, but the flavors were a bit of a mixed bag for a 3-star visit. Here is how the dishes fared: - Mapo Tofu: The sauce had a decent kick and nice chili oil sheen, but it was leaning a bit too heavy on starch and salt without much of that authentic, mouth-numbing Sichuan peppercorn depth (ma). The tofu texture was nice and soft, but overall the flavor profile felt a little flattened. - Crispy Spicy Chicken / Chongqing Chicken: Visually great and seasoned well with chili flakes and sesame seeds, but the chicken pieces were fried a bit too long, leaving them somewhat dry on the inside. A lighter batter and a punchier garlic/chili aromatic oil would make a world of difference here. Overall, it's an okay neighborhood option if you're craving a quick, filling meal, but it lacks the bold, vibrant spices you'd hope for from this style of cuisine.

There are booths where you order food to come cooked, and then the hot pot tables where you order the ingredients and cook them yourself. It's very interactive, and they have plenty of meats, vegetables, tofu, dumplings and noodles. You can choose the broth you want at the beginning and they'll bring out the pot. Each pot is split in 2, so you order one regular broth and then a spicy broth. They also have a veggie broth, which I really enjoy. You can grab things from the salad bar, and they have different sauces/oils you can take and add to your soup. You're able to really customize the experience. It's a fun little experiment you get to do with your friends and family. The space itself is busy with customers walking around and staff brining drinks and food, but it's not crazy. We joke that the steam from the soup is a nice facial treatment. Lol. You can end the night with an ice cream cone and lollipop in the waiting room. I've been a few times, and I will say the first time is overwhelming with trying to figure out what to do, but after that you get more confident and interested in curating a soup that's to your taste.

We had a staff replace it. Staff were very attentive in checking in on us and making sure our water was filled. A+ for customer service, very rare to find attentive staff nowadays.

Measuring it against Chinese in towns like my own Sacramento, I give it 4.5 stars. Love that they offer a Mu Shu chicken option because I don't eat pork - it was really good. A little too heavy on the onion (and the onion was in large pieces instead of blending in more with the dish as I'm used to), but it was still fabulous. The hand cut noodles were as great as advertised - definitely get at least mild spice to get more flavor than the no spicy (that's on me, I'm scared of what Asian restaurants think is "hot," especially Thai and Indian, so I will wasn't taking any chances with it and said no spice). Hubby said bathroom needs a deep clean and maybe a refresh so deducted a bit from that. Service was prompt and nice and not lurking which I appreciate. Lots of tables with Chinese people eating which is always a good sign in my book.
