    Despite the rain and long commute, drove two hours to Tasty Pot in Elk Grove. Arrived at 2:20pm as the hours online show that they close at 3pm. When we had arrived, party of three, we were told that their kitchen was closing. There were still many guests inside the restaurant and the staff had explained that they had a long wait list and they were accommodating those who were wait listed or had reservations. We had explained that we had driven two hours away to dine at Tasty Pot and we honestly were not aware that their kitchen would be closed/closing. We asked the staff if an exception can be made, they checked with the kitchen staff and said okay. We were seated within a few minutes and we ordered shortly, after. Within 10-15 mins later, our food was brought out to us. Very large portions, very fulfilling and it was perfect for the rainy day. Their service and food is consistent -- kind staff and the hot pots are tasty! After our meal, we purchased macaroons for dessert. I really appreciate the staff and the fact that they did make an exception to accommodate us. Looking forward to dining here, again, soon!

    Came on a Friday night and joined the Yelp waitlist around 7 PM, had to wait about 40 minutes. Got the lamb hot soup, and it was delicious! The lamb was super tender, and the bean sauce added a great salty savory kick. Definitely worth getting an extra plate of meat too. I'll definitely come back again!

    Elk Grove Tasty Pot is the best compared to the location 65th. I feel like it's always clean. The taste of the pots and spice levels are consistent. The Cajun chicken wings are super good! Great seasoning and never dry. I like the music they play here. I always receive great customer service here! They're friendly, attentive and fast.

    Potstickers

    This Tasty Pot location is the one my girlfriend always recommend whenever we're up north, and I enjoy it every time we visit. The service is nice and it's always packed whenever we go, which makes sense since it seems very enjoyable for everyone. We both got the Taiwanese as well as an order of potstickers. The potstickers were a nice appetizer and came with a total of 6. I always try what she recommends as she used to come often, so we both got the #9 Taiwanese, both mild. It was a good amount of spice and I enjoyed every bit. The broth was flavorful, and every bit of food, from meat to vegetables, were all good and complimented each other in each bite. My only small dislike is that I wish the noodles weren't that soggy, but maybe I could've just separated them from the broth once it came out. Overall I would recommend Tasty Pot for anyone in the mood for hot pot, especially during the colder season. It's so filling and good and warmed me up for the weather during our visit!

    One of my fav local spot ! All the staff are friendly and attentive ! Go for lunch because you get a free drink

    The service is exceptional at Tasty Pot! They're always checking to make sure if you need more broth or if you need more water. One time we were seated near the speakers and it was a bit too loud for me - I told the owner and she turned it down. It was so sweet of her because she didn't have to The hotpots are so tasty and delicious!! I love the variety of toppings they include in each hotpot bowl, always something different and new in each. The wait can be long, especially with the cold weather so I recommend joining the waitlist on yelp before coming in. They have a sauce station where you can make your own sauce and that really elevated the entire meal! If you're looking for a hotpot place where you get your own bowl, this is definitely the place to go to!

    Beef Hot Soup

    Tasty pot is forever my go to place I love it always. I'm a regular customer I order it on DoorDash from time to time and eat inside as well. My favorite pot is beef hot soup with flaming spicy with rice and green tea ! I love how they added chili powder as one of the things to put on your hotpot sauces in the sauce tray it's so goood!! The beef hot soup always hits on a cold day and I always crave it. The staff is always so nice and they are accommodating my favorite place for hotpo

    Mala skewers, this was pretty good with lots of good seasoning.
    Tiff A.

    This is one of my favorite places to get hot pot. The service was phenomenal and super friendly. The hot pot is for single serving but certain ones are big enough to share. The dinning area is a decent size, we've come here as a party of 10, they were able to accommodate. There's plenty of smaller tables but not many tables to fit big parties. So, if you know you have a bigger party than 7-8, I would highly recommend making reservations. My favorite: #9.Taiwanese supreme New item: Mala skewers, I try this today. It has really good flavors and a good amount of spicy level. Would recommend to my fellow foodies who like spicy food. Totally worth trying.

    I've been to many tasty pots, and this is the best location. Usually, at other locations, I have to add more sauces to make the soup flavorful. Here, the soup is already tasty and nothing needs to be added. I got the Sichuan soup and finished the entire thing. Service was very good and attentive. We drink a lot of water and it was constantly getting refilled. I will be back!

    We stopped in for dinner at Tasty Pot. I was quite impressed with the food! I got the Japanese Miso Soup. As everyone says, the portion size is impressive and what a great option as the weather cools down. The soups come in a good sized bowl on top of a heat unit so it stays nice and hot. My dish was nicely flavored (I got mild since it was my first time and the spice level was very good! I may up my game the next time.) The service staff is quite attentive, and the dining area sits a good crowd. Overall, highly recommend!

    Michelle B.

    It was my first time eating at Tasty Pot, I came in when it was quite slow so I got seated right away. The menu was very intriguing, but we landed on the Sichuan and it was okay, it wasn't very flavorful like other hot pot places I have tried. I had to add a lot of spice to season it. I did like the many different ingredients in the soup and getting broth fill ups. The servers were quite attentive, however, maybe a little too attentive. We were halfway through eating, only having had our food for 18 minutes and already was served the check. It felt like they were pushing us out despite it being so slow and nowhere near closing. I wouldn't come back again and I wouldn't advise people to come unless they wish to be rushed, but it is always nice to try a new spot.

    Food is always amazing here! Everything is well seasoned, sauces taste amazing and portions are large! Service is also really speedy and ambiance is great for everything from first dates to family nights.

    1. Beef Hot Soup Dinner
    Wendy F.

    Been here a few times and I love tasty pot! My go to is always the beef pot or the seafood one! Always has a variety of meats and veggies and good soup. Each pot comes with either rice or vermicelli, and a bonus green or black tea during lunch hours. Service has always been great even though they are busy. Sometimes you gotta flag people down if you need something or extra broth in the soup. Restaurant is always really busy inside but good place to go. I would want to work with the staff but it seems they weren't hiring at the moment.

    Is there any non-seafood options?

    Yes. Veggies and beef options. Take a look at the menus posted

    Which hotpot on the menu doesn't contain pork or sulfites (a preservative)? I am allergic to both. Thanks.

    There's a bunch of options without pork in the hotpot but I don't know what they use to make their soup base. I would recommend calling them before dining in.

    Does dinner also include the free tea?

    No, they offer water free of cost but hot tea is on you. They also have cold teas.

    Is this a good place for solo dining? :)

    Yes, we have many folks coming in solo for a quick lunch before going back to work.

    Are there any soup bases that don't include beef or pork? Chicken, lamb and veggie bases are fine

    Hello, yes there is a veggie soup bowl you can order. There are no beef or pork in the base .

    Dine in available right now?

    Only takeouts. No indoor or outdoor dining due to current county order.

    When is curbside pickup going to be available? Or is it going to be available at all? Yelp says they're doing curbside, but when I called they said they were not. We're avoiding restaurants without curbside pickup so any insight is appreciated.

    Is this restaurant still open during shelter in place?

    Hello, we are currently closed until the mandate is lifted. We will post on reopening date on our website and social media platform as soon as we know! Thank you for your support and stay safe!

    Are the broth options all pork based?

    I cant eat pork so i have them use veggie broth or water and add a soup flavor to it for the people are so nice there so ask they will help 😊

    Which Tasty Pots do not have nuts?

    Our number 1, 2 , 5, and 9 have nuts. The rest doesn’t. Please let the server know you are allergic to but and they will take care of you.

    Are you guys open 12/24 or 12/25?

    Hello we are open everyday regular hours except on Xmas day the 25th.

    My husband doesn't eat beef, pork, seafood or lamb. Does this place have chicken or fish (the only seafood he eats)?

    No chicken... But I love their veggies

    Do they use MSG?

    There's no obvious taste of MSG. The hot pots have plenty of umami, though. The decades-long scare about MSG has been proven false, by the way, and based on incorrect chemistry. And many foods can have no added MSG, but still have a lot of natural… Read more

    Do you guys have the Szechuan hot pot offered like other locations?

    Hi Cindy, yes we do!

    Can you substitute one ingredient for another?

    Hi Emily, unfortunately we don’t do substitution, but we can take out any items you don’t want. You can also do add on for items that is not in the soup.

Just a quarter of the dining area were filled. Most importantly they were adequately staffed. Tablets with an intuitive user interface were affixed to tables for placing orders. For the most part, waiter interaction is not required except for non AYCE items (e.g. sodas, alcohol, etc.). Orders do arrive fairly quick. Placing large orders does keep the turnaround smooth. It's 10 items per request, but it's not much of a limitation given you can place them back to back. Sauces, fruits, ice cream, etc. are available at the self serve bar. Plenty of options in comparison to other establishments alike. Ideal for those following a high protein diet. GoGi came in clutch!

I've been to other restaurants where the sauce was not fresh and tasted like tap water. They have a buffet for sauces and veggies. A drink is included, and they have a soda fountain with Coke Zero (big plus for me)! I recommend starting with the cream cheese wontons, and ending your meal with a nice condensed milk bun for dessert. The wontons are crispy and delicious and the milk bun was soft and the perfect portion! The restaurant is clean and has beautiful decorations. There are two private rooms folks can reserve as well. There is a parking lot behind the restaurant where you can park.

As there are a lot of seafood options. However there is hotpot options and other noodle and rice dishes as well. The restaurant has a small outdoor patio. Inside has spacious table seating, some with booth and good lighting inside. There was ballad vietnamese music video playing. The restaurant was not busy and there were elderly men at the tables playing cards and some at another table they were chatting & drinking. Im not sure if they hold karaoke or have live bands but there is a stage with music instruments and a projector with installed party lights. When we entered the restaurant we were greeted right away. It was a bummer when they told us they didn't make ox tail or bum rieu today. Instead we ordered beef tartare, beef pho and shaken beef with rice. The beef tartare was this sliced raw beef with onion, herbs and lime which made the dish rich and savory. The pho was mediocre and same goes for the shaken beef, but both dishes were still tasty enough. During our time there, the server did not check on us or refill our water. If I'm craving for seafood, maybe I'll come back to try their seafood options.
