Average AYCE hot pot place. You can add $5 additional per person to enjoy both hot pot and kBBQ. We just got the hot pot and the selection wasn't the biggest but had all the basics of hot pot: meat, fishballs, veggies, noodles. All the meat and veggies looked clean and fresh. However, I found the broth we got (Tom Yum) to be very salty, so we ended up not using the sauce bar that much. The sauce bar was great as well- they had pig ear and a bunch of ingredients to make your own sauce. Most of the stuff didn't have labels though so it was hard to know what sauces were what. Lastly, I think the service was great. They made sure to refill our water constantly without hovering. The food came out quickly. Parking isn't too bad in the area. There's also a lot right across the street! read more

Good place, good foods, crowded at night time. Best to go early. Foods come out fast. Recommend to those not try it yet read more

Tai Xi - Hot Pot Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

Tai Xi is one of the few AYCE hotpot spots in Quincy. For the price, you seriously can't go wrong! Currently, AYCE price is $30.95/pp and includes appetizers, as well. There is additional cost for broth though; price varies depending on what kind of broth(s) you choose. I enjoy getting: -rib eye -lamb -quail eggs -white fish -clams -fish tofu -tong ho They also offer boba here & take out seems to be popular here. They've got authentic Chinese dishes, if you're not interested in hotpot! Overall, I have always had good experiences eating here and I always leave here super full, so can't complain! Parking: can be found on Billings Rd and there is also a free lot on Vane St. read more

Good quality AYCE hot pot for a decent price! They sat us super quickly on a weekend evening and were exceptionally understanding of our rambunctious toddler. The food came out extremely quickly. It's AYCE so you only get one thing at a time as you order to help pace yourself. We had some floaters leftover in the broth by the end because we were so full, and we were not charged extra for it. The sauce bar here is noteworthy - it has just about everything you can imagine as far as hot pot condiments go. It even has unlimited self serve shrimp right in the sauce bar. Most people come to hot pot for the sliced meats but IMHO the veggies here were even better. The mushrooms were phenomenal and had great variety from oyster to enoki, and the cabbage was fresh and crunchy. Some sleeper shoutouts are the crab rangoons (I know, right?? But they were sooo good and crispy and crunchy and cheesy) and the wide sweet potato noodles (so much al dente-ness holy cow). read more

Small good place to eat the hot pot soup was real good the waitress came out with food pretty quick and was very plentiful plates the sauce station well was confusing and some items were not replenished but overall very friendly read more

Anything below 4 stars is disrespectful. Great bottomless hot pot AND you can do Korean bbq too

My partner and I got AYCE hot pot w signature tom yum broth and pork bone broth - TASTE: 4/5 - highlights included the signature tom yum broth's hot and sour flavor and mala beef's numbing spiciness. Several toppings available at the sauce station, including soy sauce, peanut sauce, green onion, and lots of garlic. Quality of the meat was decent for the price TEXTURE: 4/5 - wasn't expecting to have fried appetizer options, like the crunchy fried dough, crab rangoons, and scallion pancake! Enjoyed the chewy fish balls, bean curd sticks, and watercress (easier stalks to eat than tong ho) PRICE: 5/5 - honestly a great deal at $35pp SERVING SIZE: 5/5 - AYCE, though we were stuffed after two rounds SERVICE: 4/5 - walked in at 5:15pm on a wintry Saturday and only two tables were occupied (though only two tables were unoccupied by the time we left). Filled out the sheet, and our order was brought out 5 minutes later. Got our waiter's attention when we wanted to order more or get a water refill. Not sure if Tai Xi was rebranded to Thai-C, or the other way around? ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - cozy, mid-size space playing Canto music PARKING: 5/5 - happened to get a free street spot right in front of the restaurant. Otherwise, Vane St Lot is a free 2-hour parking lot nearby, if street spots on Hancock St or Billings Rd are unavailable read more

Where to begin? Hot pot everywhere. Whats different from this place than others are you can enjoy hot pot and Korean BBQ for just $5 additional for each person. Service can be a little better, but they are trying their best with only a few workers. Everything you need from meat to vegetables for both categories are available. No hidden fees for anything else. Lots of places bait and switch charge you fee for different broth bases. Shrimp and fish paste must try for hot pot. Short rib for Korean BBQ yummy. pictures next time as I was hungry and starving for food lol btw price as of 12/20 read more

The food didn't seem fresh, and both my friend and I got upset stomachs after eating here. Really regret coming here.

Been here twice in the recent month, service is 5/5 they are quick and attentive. The sauce bar has a lot of cold food. The first time I came (weekend) they served crab legs and then when I came here on the weekday they weren't. The ayce meal is such a good deal at $35 they include appetizers, meat, seafood, veggie, and the sauce bar probably the best deal in the area and the soup base is covered as well. Highly recommend tai xi in the nq area. read more

Came on an early Friday for dinner and we were the first ones here but later got crowded. They have all you can eat sushi, hotpot or both. We ended up choosing the all you can eat hotpot (including meat) and it was pretty decent. Even though it's still all you can eat, it is ordered as you go. The quality of some of the protein isn't as good as Happy Lamb (another all you can eat place) but they have a huge variety! The appetizers are pretty good and they have a huge selection for the sauce bar. read more

Tai Xi - Hot Pot Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

We came here for lunch on a Sunday . The service was good. The food came out fast. We did the all you can eat hot pot for $31. The broth was an extra charge. The food was decent and broth was tasty. We got the kim chi and Tom yum . Felt like everything we pick didn't come out but it was still enough food. We still had a chance to order more. We bought in a cake and they kept it cold then bought it out when we need it. Overall, decent spot read more

AYCE hotpot. The setting is nice a lot of families seem to have dinner here on the regular. They also have boba and smoothies which are great. The meat cuts are your hot pot thin cut meats, broth was tasty but could be elevated. For the price though I've been back here multiple times. They have a sauce cart that you make your dipping sauce on as well as appetizers like crab rangoons. Service is usually quick and you can get their attention pretty quick. Would come back, but if you're looking for more elevated there are many hot pot spots around the city most of which aren't AYCE. read more

This is one of the best hot pot spots in quincy!!! Can't beat AYCE hot pot!!! The choice of adding Korean BBQ for only $5 more is unbeatable!!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Oh hotpot, how I can never get enough of you. The mister and I are determined to try as many hotpot places as we can or at least that's what it feels like. We typically prefer the AYCE option if it's available. We found this place while perusing the fabulous Yelp community. It definitely doesn't have as much love as other places AND the name is deceiving. When you see Thai, you think umm, well, Thai food.....they really should've just kept their name listed as what's on the menu - Tai Xi, but I digress. We got there when they first opened so were able to find street parking easily just one street down. Hardly anyone was there yet. The place is a bit smaller in person than the online pictures show, but the place is modern and hip and prob insta-worthy as the kids these days say it, with some of their cute wall decor. Although there is an attractive AYCE $30.95 price tag, just note that the sauce bar and broths are additional. Their site doesn't show what the options for the AYCE menu is so voila - see my picture. Hopefully, that helps! For what they offer, I feel it's plentiful and they do offer a handful of apps as well, which is a nice touch. What I appreciated is the fact that they didn't give you a heaping pile of apps if ordered, they were portioned perfectly for our party of 2. Just enough to have a taste without pumping your belly with unnecessary fillers. We had a split pot of pork bone broth and beef tallow (med spice level). The pork bone broth was a bit under seasoned but nothing the sauce bar couldn't help. Our faves were the pork belly and the Mala beef. We both really enjoyed our meal and would def come back! And although some reviews complained about the service, we had zero complaints - the staff was impeccable even when the place started to fill up and got busy. There was only one snafu with them giving us something 2 things we didn't order - but we made sure to tell them we didn't order it so we weren't charged for not eating it. Tip - take a pic of the menu once you've checked off your selections - makes it easier to keep track of what you ordered, if it didn't get to your table and to make sure you're not charged for not eating something you didn't order. read more

Definitely come here hungry! They have AYCE option that is worth it if you are hungry. The AYCE menu does not include everything that's on their a la carte menu, but the selection is good enough and you can always add on anything else from the a la carte menu for that price if you want. It is extra charge for the broths, some broths are $8 just for one side. My favorite would be the maw chicken broth. Sometimes we would get the entire pot with maw chicken broth. It is this creamy, coconutty, chicken broth that is very flavorful. We try not to get full off appetizers from the AYCE menu, but I do like the fried bun with condensed milk. The meat is definitely fresher than some other AYCE hot pot restaurants, I've yet to see anything slightly frozen-looking. Vegetables are consistent with most hot pot restaurants. I wish they had ramen, even instant ramen noodles would work. The restaurant itself looks nice and bright, good for pictures. Service can be slow sometimes, because some of the staff members just stand in the corner talking to each other or on their phones so it is hard to get their attention. One time, my family and I were waiting for someone for so long, I had to ask the manager for the bill on the other side where bubble tea orders are taken. read more

Nice cozy restaurant fresh food and great boba drinks. They have hot pot and very good entree. The owner personally made our drinks and explain how to order and recommended some great dishes. It was a hot day out. So we didnt try hot pot .we tried some nice boba like melon which was very satisfing and my daughter got the toro milk boba and she was very happy with it. Everything we had was so delicious and it was a very clean and fast . read more

The boba tea location was called Chaitime, the store sign currently says Thai C Haven't tried the unlimited hotpot yet but, the section is always busy. I usually order boba tea which usually just good. The Matcha ice cream float was a first, wish the matcha flavor was stronger. The menu is a little different than most places in the area. The drink area is well decorated including a fish tank. The chairs are cute, perfect for pics. read more

Tai Xi - Mango Passionfruit Sparkling, Matcha Float, Strawberry Strawberry Rose Cooler - Hot Pot Near Me - Quincy, Massachusetts

My sister has been wanting to take me to try this place and while we were in town decided to go. They do all you can eat hotpot which I really liked. There soups were very flavorful and all the seafood, meat, vegetables were fresh. We also ordered a bunch of smoothies which was one of the main things my sister was raving about. Specifically the watermelon smoothie. They also have a sauce bar and some side dishes which she said wasn't there the last time they came so I think it might be new. The restaurant is smaller, cute and clean. It took a while for the food and soup base to come out in the beginning but after the food came out then it was good service. I would definitely come back and really enjoyed my whole experience there. read more

We came here couple times just because of its location. We don't like how uncomfortable their chairs are. The menu is small and missing many things . The meat slices are super thin , thinner like paper. I know it's AYCE buffe but please don't try to be cheap read more

Don't know when they change the name to Thai Xi... haven't been here for some time.. now they offer AYCE, will come here if craving for their coconut soupbase. Fresh meat t&at are nice quality for AYCE and fresh veggies. Now more people coming here comparing before. Hope they offer more veggies selection. read more

Located in Quincy, there is an All You Can Eat Hot Pot Buffet for about $31 per person, with an extensive menu offerings available such as beef, pork, lamb, chicken, veggies, and loads of seafood to choose from. They also have a la carte menu items that you can order for the table. What was nice was they also have mild to spicy offerings in the broth that you choose. When they say spicy they really do mean spicy. I also recommend the avocado smoothie. Down time to get food wasn't too long of a wait. Food seemed fresh and with their sauce bar, it enhanced the flavors of meat. read more

Great value AYCE hotpot! Around $31 per person for all you can eat including the meat is a pretty good deal around these parts where individual ordering gets so pricey. The soup base is separate price but in total for 2 people it did not end up being more than going to individual ordering hotpot places. The soup broths are not bad! I would say 3/5. They do refill it with water. I got the beef tallow spicy medium which was really spicy. And I love spice. I would say start with the mild then see how you feel. The quality of the food was good as well. I've definitely had better but for the price I really couldn't complain. I recommend the shrimp paste! All in all I will go back when I'm craving hotpot but don't want to break the bank. read more

And just like I said before that we would return - we did, on a chilly day. Not too many patrons at the time we arrived so we were seated right away and were asked whether we wanted the buffet menu, to which we affirmed. Because of our affirmation, we received a smaller set of menus which made it easier to go through our dining selections. Right off the bat, we ordered the salted egg yolk fish maw broth for hot pot for the entire pot cuz it was just the right thing to do. Once simmered, it was warming, smoothing and satisfactory as it danced through our body. You'll notice miniscule bits of egg yolk in the broth that gives it a pleasant texture. From the veggies, root veggies (daikon, taro), fatty beef, beef tongue, tofu and shrimp paste, everything was consistently good. Definitely recommend ordering the clams cuz they are big, plump and juicy. Wish I had pictures to prove all this but we were hungry and in need of warmth. They also had a condiment cart nearby that can be pushed tableside and I would say they had at least 20 condiments based on memory. No doubt we will return many more times! read more

Tried Thai C for the first time yesterday. The place is clean and has modern decor and seating. They have AYCE menu ($31/pp) and a-la-cart menu. We did a-la-cart. We chose their signature Tom Yum broth, it was slightly creamy from the coconut but good. We ordered a variety of food and popcorn chicken for appetizer. I especially like their Kumquat Lemonade, very refreshing. Food portion was great, not too much nor little. Service was quick and we had no issues ordering. They have a small Sauce Bar so you can customize your sauce. There's even recommendations on how to make your sauce with the broth you pick on the wall which I thought was nice to have for hotpot newbies. read more

I only come to this place for hotpot so I am only rating on that. I came here a few times. I was not impressed (but my partner likes it) until the last time which was yesterday. If I didn't come here the last time, I would give this place a 2-3 stars. But after yesterday's experience, I think a 4-star should justify their improvements. First the broth is way better than before. We ordered Tum Yum broth and the Beef Oil Spicy (medium) broth. One thing that I was not impressed by this place in the past was because the broths are so bland and thin like water. But yesterday, we were surprised to see some great leaps in broth quality. They are thicker, creamy and flavorful. Good job! Second, the ribeye quality is amazing. I have been to quite a few hotpot places and always avoided the ribeye meat because they are always too lean to go with the hotpot. But Taixi's ribeye is marble-like and really delicious. However, their lamb is a bit mediocre and doesn't taste like lamb due to the lack of the unique gamy lamb flavor. Lastly, the service is where I think Taixi can improve. During our 90-min dining, no one comes to our table to ask if we need anything. We had to get the staff's attention to refill our water or order more food. Overall, I am happy with Tai Xi now. I would say that Wei Shu Wu nearby is still a little better in terms of food quality, when I want a very authentic Chinese Sichuan style hotpot. But Wei Shu Wu is too overpriced to the point that it's really not worth it anymore. In the meantime, Tai Xi is all you can eat. Given its recent improvement in the quality of the food, I think Tai Xi is a great replacement of Wei Shu Wu from now on. read more

We went early on a busy Saturday and were seated quickly. There was an excellent selection of meats, and veggies to choose from. I was impressed by the freshness of the meats and fish. We ordered boba for the table and they are one of the few places I can find that does really good rose milk tea. They had a few broth options from mild to hot and sweet to savory. The sauce station is well managed and clean. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu and very friendly and patient about questions. Appetizers are included as well. Would definitely go again. read more

Always been my favorite and go-to hot pot place to hang out with friends and family. Now imagine you've been denied of service in a cold rainy Friday at 5PM (lol not even a dinner rush) just because you're a single customer when there's literally 1 table of 2 that enjoying their meal, isn't it a bit cruel? But please if you believe that single (LOYAL) customer not bring you any profit, please put a sign outside that said minimum 2 people party, so that I don't have to be that disappointed. Staff said stuffs like "we're changing tables, they're reserved ect". Right, when I confronted with her that she also have like at least 3 small tables left, she denies. Cool, thanks God Quincy is a very vibrant neighborhood with at least 10 competitive hot pot places that ready to welcome me and my humble dollars. Sad but I guess I'm ready to move on. read more

Amazing food and amazing deal with their AYCE menu. Went today during Memorial Day and there was plenty of staff to service everyone in the restaurant. Food comes insanely quick and they missed no orders at all (usually other AYCE they miss orders). The interior is modern and very clean. Not sure why this doesn't have more reviews and is only a 3.5 star. MUST COME read more

good food, great service! we've been here a few times and it's the same servers/waiters, who are always on top of everything! i dropped my chopsticks twice by accident but it was replaced very quickly without even asking! it seems to be a family ran restaurant and the owner is very nice as well. the vibes are great, veggies are clean, the meat is pretty fresh and the service is quick! they have a build your own sauce station and also an exotic drink menu with a variety of bubble teas and the best thing is they also include appetizers unlike a lot of other hotpot spots AND if you're a sushi lover you can get AYCE sushi for just $10 more!! overall a great price for an AYCE hotpot. 10/10 recommended! read more

Came here twice at around 10:20-10:25pm. This obnoxious lady keeps saying the kitchen is closed and she is not accepting customers. Their restaurant closes at 11:00pm and the kitchen closes at 10:30pm. This is a Hot Pot.. the kitchen does not need to cook any food.. just bring out raw food for us. So, why are you refusing customers over 30+ minutes before closing? If you don't care about business then put a sign out! After 2 attempts to give them a try, I will say that I will never go back again. They have lost my business and a positive Yelp review from me. I would much rather go accross the street to Wei Shu Wu, who offer more quality meats and service is excellent! Don't waste your time with this place! read more

Amazing hot pot experience! It has many different snack foods but also fresh meats and ingredients!

I tried this place a couple of times but not for their AYCE hot pot. I usually get their dry mala pot. You need to order each item separately. My usual order would be with fried white fish fillet, fish tofu, wood ears, lotus root and sliced potatoes. It's pretty good and not too spicy as compared to other mala places. read more

Not just hot pot!! Incredible Chinese/Szechuan place. Great mix of familiar dishes and traditional ones you don't see anywhere else. Dan Dan noodles, Ma Po tofu were our favs - had it twice in two weeks, can't wait to try more of the menu. read more

Came here twice. Once before the AYCE hotpot was implemented and once after. The second time was due to a coworker recommending it to me so I thought I'd give it a shot. Both times were kind of disappointing. First time, the chicken wings were still raw on the inside, had to return it to get it redone, not sure if it was the same ones but just reheated but they were cooked afterwards. Second time, for the AYCE hotpot, it was an interesting experience. The service was all right, there wasn't much to be flabbergasted about. The food felt a little on the lower quality. The quantity was wack too! If you write 5 orders of enoki mushrooms, you would get maybe a quarter of one. And if you write 5 of the fish balls, you get a crap ton of them. Not sure if the 5 enoki was measured by individual mushroom strands or not but it was definitely NOT it. read more

Dine in regular menu review: We were looking for a place to eat as we were walking by and saw Thai c, we automatically assumed it was Thai food because of the name, but it wasn't. At first we almost walked out but glad we gave this place a try because we were quite impressed with the service and the food. We stopped in a a Saturday afternoon for lunch and we were the only customer there. We were greeted by a young man who assisted us throughout our dine in experience. Since we were the one ones there, the food came out at a reasonable time. The popcorn chicken were a huge hit. We also ordered the beef scallion pancake and we were really excited to try it since the presentation was lovely, however it was really dry and lacked so much flavor. We also ordered the chicken teriyaki and the brisket noodle which were both delicious and flavorful. This dine in regular menu visit was great, 5 out of 5 stars. Dine in hotpot review: All the reviews on here was for hotpot so we decided to come back and do hotpot this time around.. HUGE mistake. This place is way too over priced and everything is so unorganized. There is no "host," at the register. We walked up the the counter and no one was there. We waited about 15 minutes for some to acknowledge us. After being greeted and seated we were given a menu that did not have a description to their combos. When we asked the server regarding the combos she was unsure and kept saying "I think it come with this," when the food came out it wasn't what she had mentioned to us. We pretty much paid for food we didn't like nor did we even bother to eat. The server was very inattentive and seemed to be bothered that we were asking questions about the hotpot menu. She was unknowledgeable. The fact that hotpot doesn't come with sauce is ridiculous- you have to pay for sauce per person. All the portions were small. Service this time around was really bad and slow. Overall the place is really clean and gorgeous decor, but definitely not worth the money. I will continue to order off the regular menu if I do ever come back. read more

Best hotpot place to get the most bang for your buck in and around Boston! It's AYCE with fresh food and unlimited food/great variety of food. Meats are never frozen. I went to a regular restaurant in Chinatown the other day and felt like I was cheating on tai xi. It wasn't AYCE, I got one plate of frozen beef and some sides and it was the same price as tai xi! The grass isn't always greener. Friendly staff/great food you'll see me here consistently until that changes. (Hopefully not) read more
