    Curry hot pot (medium)
    Stephanie W.

    Tasty pot never disappoints and I always leave very fulfilled. Was seated promptly for lunch and there was no wait. We get our usual curry and lamb hot pot with medium spice but we always ask for a side of chili oil to add more spice if needed. All the sauces were filled and they even had napkins at each table which is a huge plus (esp when it gets too spicy) because I haven't seen this at other locations. Service was good and the staff offered to add more soup to our pots.

    Green Pepper
    Linh L.

    Stopped by Tasty Pot after noticing their new Green Pepper flavor and it did not disappoint! I had my usual Beef flavor while my wife tried the Green Pepper. Both were flavorful, comforting, and packed with ingredients. The broth on the Green Pepper pot had such a unique kick without being overwhelming. What I like about Tasty Pot in the category or personal hot pot, you are able to fully customize your choice. For myself, I love the toppings in the beef flavor, however I love changing the broth to tom yum. Anyways, great spot for a cozy meal and we'll definitely be back next time.

    The food was actually Tasty & full of flavor. We got there as they were opening their door. Good thing too because this place became full of customers in the blink of an eye. I would say that I wish all of our main dinner dishes came out at the same time. It made it weird to eat my udon noodle dish while everyone else was waiting for their hot soup. Their fried calamari was a hit with its tasty crunchiness.

    Tasty Pot is definitely one of my favorite spots! The food is always amazing--everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to because you know you'll get a great meal every time.I also really appreciate how clean and well-kept the place is. It makes the whole dining experience even more enjoyable and comfortable. Most of all, the service is excellent. The staff are always so nice, friendly, and welcoming, which really stands out. They make you feel taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommend if you're looking for great food and great service in San Jose!

    I was honestly surprised by this. I've tried so many hot pot places around the Bay Area, but Tasty Pot was way more amazing than I expected since they start to do "All You Can Eat". Their side dishes have everything, especially the variety of meatballs and hot pot ingredients. That's something I appreciate because most hot pot spots are usually pretty limited. They also had a huge variety of vegetables to choose from. Definitely one of the better hot pot experiences I've had in the Bay Area.

    6. Healthy Veggie Hot Soup with beef soup base very spicy
    Michelle H.

    I love love love Tastypot its like the perfect comfort food no matter if its hot or cold outside. The soup and ingredients are always consistent and I dont think its ever been off in any way. My favorite pot would be the beef pot or the veggie pot with tomato soup. The variety in ingredients is great and I always feel like Im getting a very nutritious meal The workers here are super friendly and nice! I ordered a large takeout order once and one of the servers was kind enough to help me bring it out to my car! The store is really clean and everything is nicely decorated. Its my favorite place to have a casual dinner or a good hangout with friends

    Wow I had a wonderful dinner experience yesterday here at Tasty Pot Milpitas. I got their Japanese Miso Hot Pot and it was good, 4.5 stars. Funny enough, our table all got the same entree. Flavor was not too light nor overwhelming. If you want to add more spice for flavor, they have it on the side of each table. Portions were good too. I was so full. Also got their coconut lava balls which comes in 5 pieces per order, delicious, 5/5 stars. Service was spectacular from start to finish from all of their staff. They were very proactive and attentive in their service throughout to all customers whether it is helping navigate through their online menu, water refills, soup refills, or more napkins, they will come by and provide what they think customers need without needing to be asked. Interior is spacious, clean, and provides relaxing vibes.

    Tomato Fillet Hot Soups
    Michelle L.

    My third(?) time coming here with my group of 6+ longtime Milpitas friends! Parking is easy since it's located in a plaza. Walked in a little after 6:30pm on a Friday night and were immediately seated. Scanned the QR code at the table to order, and waters were brought out as we perused the menu I've gotten their beef soup twice prior, but I was looking at their new items and noticed a Tomato Fillet Hot Soup. They had varying new fillet hot soups, and it looked like the only difference was the type of soup they used (all the ingredients were the same). Opted to try the tomato one in mild w/ noodles. Didn't have to wait too long before the food started coming out! Unless you have dietary restrictions, I don't think you could go wrong with any of their choices. My vegetarian friends noted that there weren't many options for them (it looked like the Healthy Veggie Hot Soup was the only suitable option, but there lacked an option to add more protein - the consensus was that MalaTown had many more vegetarian options). Definitely enjoyed the Tomato Fillet Hot Soup! I did find two small bones in my fish, each about an inch long. It didn't seem like anyone else in my group who ordered the fillet soup had bones, but just be careful when you're eating the fish! Very comforting and casual meal! The total per person after tax and before tip came out to a little more than $20. Would be more than happy to come back!

    Takoyaki and coconut sesame balls
    Sarah T.

    Food is always great here. I'm glad they serve sizzling plates along with hot pots because I'm the only one who likes the soups in the family. Food is ordered by QR code at each table and comes out really fast after the order is submitted. The cheesy hot pot medium spicy was delicious. The snacks were piping hot! The restaurant is family friendly so it can get rather loud but it's expected with groups and families. The server would automatically bring by sealed water cups and forks for young kids which is greatly appreciated. Tasty pot is a good choice when no one can decide where to eat for dinner.

    Eel Sizzling (Udon)
    Jason H.

    From the "New Item!" menu, the Eel Sizzling with Udon versus Rice) plate was a pleasant change from soup. The sweetness from the eel (and eel sauce) was just right. The egg, edamame, and udon noodles were a perfect mixture. The Takoyaki and soup dumplings were typical, but hot and fresh. At first, they said we ordered one Eel with rice and one with udon -- until we showed them our cart/bill with two udon. Other than that, service was attentive and our water filled.

    This location is in a very busy plaza. You are lucky to find parking. The wait staff is always very friendly and the wait is never too long even though they are always busy. They have a few TV to watch sporting games. It's never too loud. You can hear your table perfectly fine. The food always comes out really hot and fresh. The wait is not too long. I like that you can make your own sauce right at your own table. On weekdays during lunch you can get a check in offer for free green tea. One of my go to spots for hot pot.

    Blanca G.

    I love coming here, It's been a while since the last time I was here but the food is always very tasty and fresh the staff are always very friendly and the store is always very nice and clean and the environmental is very welcoming.

    Nothing but great things to say about this restaurant. Great food, good service, and solid portions. My partner and I both ordered the Taiwanese Supreme Spicy Hotpot, which can be adjusted to your spice tolerance. It comes with your choice of white rice or vermicelli noodles at no extra cost. The portion size is perfect, with premium ingredients and a solid variety of veggies/meats. There are dipping sauces at every table, and each customer gets a free iced green tea or black tea, which is a nice touch. They used to offer a creamier green tea if you checked in on Yelp, but it seems they don't anymore. Overall, I highly recommend this spot for an individual hotpot restaurant that hits all the right spots!

A waiter told me they don't take credit cards when I was trying to pay. I was like, okay, maybe I should have done more research before I went there. So I tried to talk to him to see if there's any other options, like Zelle or Venmo, or maybe I can go to a nearby ATM and get some cash. He ignored me and did not respond, and left. I walked around, was finally able to get a waitress who was willing to talk to me. I explained that I didn't know they only took cash and I wonder if I can pay through other ways. She pointed at the wall and told me "it says on the wall", sounding like blaming me for not getting cash ready. Yes, maybe I should have read all the signs on the wall, but I really don't enjoy being blamed when I did nothing wrong. Assuming credit cards as one of the payment methods is not my fault, just how the society works. Anyway, I was able to pay them via Venmo, but I did not enjoy the experience at all.

We ordered 2 small Taiwanese Wontons soups, a House special beef noodle soup, and a Taiwanese sandwich. Everything was authentic and delicious. The wontons soups were flavorful and warm. My beef noodle soup was hearty. The tender beef was scrumptious. The sandwich was different, something that I have never had before but I enjoyed it a lot. The pork meat filling was savory and tasty.

We got to try the Firecracker Fries, Spicy Shrimp & Pork Wontons, and the Traditional Beef Noodle Soup with thick noodles. The Firecracker Fries were definitely my favorite. Crispy outside, soft inside, flavorful with a little kick, and honestly addicting. The wontons were soft and packed with filling, although sweeter than spicy to me personally. The beef noodle soup was really comforting. Broth had a nice herbal flavor, noodles were chewy, and the beef was tender. The regular size was actually huge, enough for us to share and still have leftovers to bring home. Service was fast and friendly, we literally the last table there but they really took good care of us. Overall, really great experience and now I'm already craving those Firecracker Fries again.
