    I first tried Tasty Pot in NorCal, but at the time I wasn't impressed due to the numerous options available there. It also doesn't provide that traditional hotpot experience which I find much more enjoyable. However in VC options are limited, so when I saw Tasty Pot recently opened I was quite ecstatic! There were 12 different pots and 5 spicy levels to choose from. Pot numbers 1-7 were smaller size and numbers 8-12 were larger size pots. Except for the Healthy Veggie pot, all the soup base was pork broth. Most of the pots also had very similar ingredients, the difference I could see were the main protein choice and soup flavor. They also have another menu for rice and noodle options if you didn't want to do the personal pots. We got the Taiwanese Supreme in mild and the Seafood Lobster in medium. We also got a side of quail eggs. The pots arrived with a candle of some sort below to keep it hot. Both pots were of the larger size and filled with lots of food. The mild was the perfect level of spicy for me, a hint of spice that does not overpower the original flavor of the ingredients, rather it enhanced each one and made it more tasty. Service was good, our server came by frequently to check on us and to refill the soup. At one point the flame under the pot had already gone out but we hadn't cook the noodles so we requested another flame. We were told they had to bring the pot back to the kitchen to heat it up. So I guess the flame was there to just keep the pot warm rather than actually cooking. Although this cannot compare to the traditional hotpot, this personal hotpot is still a very good option and helps to satisfy my craving.

    Tasty Pot was an excellent dinner choice, and id say this place is a step up from Boiling Point. The server was friendly and the restaurant was clean. There were about 17 options from beef, lamb, kimchi, Curry, tom, yum, making it difficult to choose but I ended up choosing the Taiwanese Supreme, which came with a huge variety of meats and vegetables. I got the medium spice level, which was still pretty hot for me, so order accordingly! We paired our meal with their milk teas; while the tea flavor was solid, the boba texture was a little hard/not as QQ as id like. Regardless of the boba, the hot pot was phenomenal, in terms of taste and the generous serving size! I will definitely be back.

    Tried the Japanese Miso with a side of Calamari this time. The miso tasted weird, a bit on the sour side. The meat and overall meal was not very tasty. The calamari with the sweet sauce was not bad, although it was a bit soggy. Definitely not the best experience I've hard here but I would say the server and service was A+. Was even tempted to bump this review up to a 4 for them but I have to refrain to focusing on the food this time.

    Food was so yummy! I've been driving to LA all this time for AYCE hot pot and I can't tell you how happy I am that I just have to drive across town everything was so good and fresh. The self serve sauce bar is great! And exactly what I was looking for. We got the Thai broth and Taiwanese broth both very yummy with some spice. The service was also good very friendly workers, Would 100% come back.

    My updated review is based on my third trip here. Main issue was that not all of the ingredients were in the Taiwanese Supreme pot that we ordered. It was missing pretty much a third of the ingredients that's stated on the menu, and was mainly cabbage and beef, which were good, but very disappointing considering how pricey it has gotten. We also ordered the fried calamari which was the smallest portion I've seen in terms of size and amount. Not sure if that was worth the price. Overall, this still would be a go to spot for hot pot considering there aren't many places like this in VC and the service was still good, but definitely going to be on the back burner awhile.

    It's always nice to find a good Asian restaurant in the 805. It's even better when the staff speaks your native language (Vietnamese). This is a very good option if you want to have tasty hot pot without the guilt of an All You Can Eat restaurant. The service on a weekday lunch was very quick and not crowded. The soup ingredients are fresh and delicious. You can always add more ingredients with the à la carte menu. And the broth is amazingly smooth and comforting. I ordered the very spicy level and still enjoyed the broth, not too hot. The restaurant is large and clean, we have no complaints about this location and look forward to returning.

    The ongoing growth of Asian cuisine in Oxnard over the last few years has been great for those of us who have travelled for good eats. Tasty Pot is a spot that we have always wanted to visit and glad that this Taiwanese experience is now here. This is yummy and I'm so happy that we tried it. Service was great and we were well attended to. Food came out quick and the staff were definitely pleasant. Decent amount of seating available inside the restaurant. Started to fill up around dinner time. Glad to see they had traffic - we need this plate to succeed. Portions are deceptively large. I had the Kimchi dumplings pot and it was incredible. 10/10. Next time, I'll be getting the same thing. Extra Spicy Heat was not overwhelming head but added a ton of flavor. Those dumplings were perfect. Rice cake, fish ball and an egg. Didn't go wrong. I also mixed all 4 sauces provided in this. Mouth is watering thinking about it. My wife loved her Japanese Miso - medium heat. She says she would get the same thing again. My daughter would get her beef pot again. My son enjoyed the cheesy milk but said he would try something different next time. Thought he would like this as he is a fan of the military stew at Ragin Pot in Hueneme but this didn't hit the same. The kids said their Thai Teas were very good. Looking forward to coming back here.

    The portion was a lot smaller than I expected for the price. I liked that the food stayed hot for a while because of the flame on the bottom! The workers there were nice, they came by once to fill up the broth. Hope to see more people come by!

    Love a great soup spot!!! Tasty Pot is consistent no matter the location. This one we went to since we were in town. Had a bigger party and was able to call and make a reservation no problem. The staff was attentive and kind. The soup was so delish! Burned my tongue a bit, but so worth it. Would definitely grub here again!

    I was helping out in Oxnard for the afternoon, and seeing that the day was gloomy and cold. I immediately thought of something warm to eat. To my surprise, Tasty Pot was close to where I was supposed to be at and well, after sitting in 2 hours of traffic, I was hungry. Tasty Pot is right off the 101 Freeway on Vineyard and located in a strip mall alongside a boba shop and Carls Jr. Arriving at around noon on a Friday, parking was incredibly easy as I got a spot right in front with plenty of spaces around. The restaurant is clean and well kept with a large space. Parties of 10+ will not have a problem here. Sitting down and ordering, I got the beef pot (medium hear) with rice with a side of extra beef and quail eggs. Since it is lunch it came with a free tea, which to me was a wonderful surprise. The hot put came out with a burner along with my additions. Let me start with the broth. So tasty, clean aftertaste, oh and they refill it! The beef itself was well done and along with the additions (mushrooms, tofu, cabbage) filled me up. Safe to say, my hunger was well satisfied. For a rating I would give it 8/10. The broth really won me over, but I feel that the beef shavings needed a bit more flavor. They have multiple types of bowls, so I would recommend either coming with friends, or multiple visits! Look forward to the next visit!

    Rare find in Oxnard to have an authentic Taiwanese Chinese "hot pot" restaurant. Twelve varieties of hot pot choices each one easily feeds two to three. The eclectic menu is not like a typical Chinese restaurant, but much more healthy, delicious and reasonably priced for the size of servings. As a Chinese person, I would recommend and will revisit.

    Amazing hot pot place! I tried the Thai Hot pot and beef Hot pot and they were both delicious. the base is a pork broth and they add flavoring for each specific choice. plenty of meat and veggies and 4 different choices to for a custom made dipping sauce. Also tried theirmulk tea and it was pretty good. There was a sign on the window that stated free tea with lunch but we didn't receive any. May be you have to ask for it? staff is very nice and attentive and the location was clean. Plenty of parking.

    I love that Tasty Pot has come to Oxnard! My friends and I came during opening week (opening day actually) and we had a fabulous time. Always impressed when a new restaurant can fully execute A+ service and a phenomenal dining experience on opening day. This spot will only get better with time but they are already off to an amazing start. My friends and I wandered in around 5pm and were able to get sat immediately. It's seat yourself. This restaurant isn't too big so I'm sure there will be longer wait times the more that people start to learn about this place. Restaurant was clean and inviting. I loved the decor with cute little lights and the artwork / painting behind the counter was cool. The menu is pretty big with hotpot options, additional toppings, appetizers and drinks. Ordering is a little more unique as you scan a barcode on your table and then place your order that way. Once you are done eating you would pay at the counter. This ordering system had to be explained to us because at first we weren't exactly sure what to do but now we know and it's easy peasy. Plus if you are reading this you now have the advantage of you know how it works :). Prices seemed very reasonable for the amount of food that we were given. Definitely come hungry because the hotpot's are a lot of food! To start I had a peached iced tea with 75% sweetness and it was so delicious. I love a good sweet tea. Very refreshing and compliments the hotpot well. Lots of boba teas and fun drink options here. My friend got a taro drink which also looked pretty tasty. A good tea is definitely 5/5 always in my book. For my hotpot I opted for the classic mild beef pot. Definitely a comforting dish. I love how loaded all of the proteins and toppings are in this soup. The broth was very very light. Normally I'm more of rich broth type of a girl (like a ramen) but having something on the lighter side was nice. Good flavor to the broth but to kick it up a notch I added a little bit of garlic and chili oil. The beef was tender and I really liked the clams, mushrooms and cabbage in my soup. Pro tip: get the side of white rice - loved adding it to the soup for some needed thickness. I'd say hotpot was about a 4/5 for me. Comforting and unique for me as I had never tried it before. Staff and service were very warm and friendly. You could tell the staff were eager to help and excited about opening day. I thought everyone here did a great job and made us feel welcome. Tasty Pot is well worth a trip if you are a local or visiting the Oxnard area. A fun new restaurant to try and I'd love to come back to try some different soup bases and toppings.

The salad bar was full and stocked with lots of choices! The restaurant was very clean and brightly lit. Nice music playing. We had a very nice time.

    This was my first (and last) time eating at this restaurant…read more Positives: Table service was very attentive and pleasant. Place seemed clean. (I did not visit the restrooms.) Easy parking. Senior pricing available.. Many types of food. Many kinds of desserts were displayed. Negatives: Food that was supposed to be hot was lukewarm and seemed as though it had sat under the heat lanps for too long. This was particularly true about the breakfast food items, but the lunch entrees were not very hot, either. The soups and chili were hotter. Upselling by charging for drinks when ordered the buffet without asking me directly if I wanted drinks and if so, that it was not part of the meal price. (Note: no one was in front of or behind us, so there was no hurry to move us thru the line.) I had to ask twice for the senior discount, though I am clearly eligible. Food tasted mediocre at best, though the presentation was fine. This is best described as school cafeteria food on a random Wednesday that was not well temperature-controlled. I will not return even though it would have been a great location geographically for me to meet people visiting the area for a meal as it is just off the highway. We ate there is about 11 a.m.. so between regular breakfast and lunch.

    There's nothing like an evening filled with hanging with friends surrounded by a pile of meat…read more Which is exactly how my Sunday evening was spent hanging out at Gen! Arrived around 7pm on a Sunday and were super silly and didn't put in a reservation beforehand, so we had to wait about 30-40 minutes before securing a table (pro tip: GET A RESERVATION! Sunday night is family night, so it will be tough just being able to simply walk in without a wait). After a beer at another location, we got the glorious text from Gen saying our table was ready, so we scrambled to get back ~30minutes later. We were seated and were met with Arvin, our incredible server. Since we all have been there, he didnt have to go through the rigamarole of telling us how to our nght would go, so we got to orderin! First off, the menu is HUUUUUUUUGE. There are so many options to choose from and we got so many things. My personal favorites were: Kimchi fried rice w/ Cheese - so flavorful with a little bit of kick (i love the spicy) Corn Cheese - because of course Spicy Pork bulgolgi - Again Spicy Honey spicy bulgolgi - This surprised me at how much i liked this. So good They even serve my favorite sake here (Kikusui) which was excellent! Great night over at Gen! Arvin, our server was amaxing, gave us lots of recommendations and treated us really well. This was a bit of a going away dinner for myself, but I know that there are tons of other locations of Gen! If I don't catch this particular location again soon, im sure ill be at another up north!

    I have been coming to this Gen location ever since it opened, so there's definitely some nostalgia…read moretied to this place. On a busy Saturday evening, expect the usual 45-60 minute wait. We ordered from the regular menu. The brisket seemed leaner than I remember and didn't taste as high quality as it used to. The pork belly was cut way too thick, I prefer thinner slices so you can get a better char and crisp texture. The galbi marinade also felt a little off this time, slightly too sweet and missing that smoky charred flavor. That said, the service was above average and surprisingly quick despite how busy it was. Honestly, one of the main reasons I still come here is because there aren't many KBBQ options in Ventura County unless you're willing to drive out farther.

    Moqueca has one thing going for it immediately: location. Sitting quietly in the harbor in Channel…read moreIslands Harbor, the setting is relaxed and pleasantly unpretentious. It's the kind of place you stumble into after a day on the water, which actually feels appropriate for a seafood-forward Brazilian restaurant. The problem is the food never quite matches the promise of the name. I lived in Brazil for a while, so I tend to chase those flavors when I see a Brazilian restaurant. This place tries, and the food is perfectly tasty, but authenticity is where things start to drift. The menu hits some expected notes. You'll see things like moqueca, picanha, bolinho de bacalhau, camarão ao alho, and caldo verde. On paper that all sounds promising. But the execution feels softened and Americanized, and the overall menu reads like a curated sample of Brazilian dishes rather than something that feels rooted in an actual Brazilian kitchen. Moqueca itself, the dish the restaurant is named for, should be a vibrant stew layered with dendê oil, coconut milk, cilantro, lime, and peppers, the kind of thing that hits you with aroma before the spoon even reaches your mouth. Here it's fine, but it lacks the depth and brightness that make the real version so memorable. Feijoada shows up as a special some days, which is good to see, but honestly it's the kind of dish that lives or dies by its ingredients and slow cooking. With good cuts and some patience I can make a better one at home. The biggest red flag on the entire menu, though, is what's missing. There is no Pão de queijo. For a Brazilian restaurant, that's almost an affront. Pão de queijo is practically the national snack; warm, chewy little cheese breads made with tapioca flour that show up everywhere from bakeries to gas stations in Brazil. Leaving it off the menu feels like opening an Italian restaurant and deciding bread isn't necessary. Portions are also very American. Plates are enormous. That might sound like a positive, but it often just means a lot of food gets wasted unless you pack it up. For those of us staying on nearby boats in the harbor, hauling leftovers around isn't exactly ideal. None of this means the restaurant is bad. The food is good enough, the seafood is solid, and the harbor setting is pleasant. But if you're coming here hoping to revisit the flavors of Brazil, it falls short. It feels more like a Brazilian-inspired restaurant designed for American expectations than a place that truly captures the cuisine. It's enjoyable. Just don't expect the Brazil you remember.
