    Sizzling Pepper beef w/ udon option. Delicious!!
    ZenVibrations 8.

    We eat here every two weeks! It is amazing.! Always get the sizzling beef with udon and the different skewers. The calamari app is great too.

    My daughter brought me here a week or so ago for a great lunch. Great it was! The service was great, the place is spotless and the food was great. The bubble or boba drink was absolutely delicious! I wish I could remember the names of the two pots we got but I don't. The only thing I do remember is that it was green'ish and it had curry. I could have eaten thw whole thing by myself. They have Tv's that were playing the soccer games. The bathrooms are also spotless. The colors are a beige and gold. Their selfie wall in the front is cute. I would absolutely come back here again.

    Sizzling Beef with rice
    Liv L.

    We went back here to try new dishes. We ordered beef hot pot and the sizzling beef, both were delicious! Service is fast too and we got free refills of the soup. It was not busy since it's summer time so people tend to avoid this kind of food, so it was pretty quiet. Their Restroom was clean too.

    It was nearly empty when I went. I think this type of food is hard for this demographics. If you were in San diego or orange county or l.a it would always be busy. I dont like tasty pot in general. This place looks big on the outside but its kind of small in the inside. I love yin tang and ziangliang mala tang and places of the likes bc its 14$ a pound and you choose what you want inside. Today I ordered the stinky tofu soup, which was BTW very delicious. Its an excellent broth. I chose the flame spicy and there was no spice but that's sort of expected bc the demographics in temecula cant handle ANY spice, even tiniest bit. This soup was very rich and flavorful, but what I was disappointed in was there was 0 intestines. I only ordered this bowl bc it had intestines. I showed my server I had 0 as I was sifting through my soup. I asked him if he can get me a bowl of intestines a d if he can't, ill pay for the extra charge. This was the only reason why I ordered this dish! Its just sad it had none. This is why they get 3 stars. I like the cabbage substitute bc I dont eat noodles or rice. Everything else in the soup was OK. I also got beef sticks. It had 0 flavor. I think even this demographic would agree. Maybe today I got a bad batch? Again, im not a big fan of tasty pot and its overpriced food, but i shall say this is the best tasty pot I've had. Ill come again to try other things. I want to add i loved the tofu paste sauce they had with chili oil and soy sauce on the middle of the table. The soy sauce was really funky however.

    I was close by, starving and wanted to try the soup, I went to order and ask what her favorite was. She mentioned a couple of the soups and then the Beef sizzling plate. That sounded so good, with udon noodles, onions, corn, cheese and a fried egg. Of course that's what I ordered, with all the extras. I was going to take it home, but instead thought it would taste better on the sizzling plate. I was seated and patiently waited. Once it arrived I was instructed to mix it together well and enjoy. It was so full of flavor and tasty. I will have to make another trip to actually try the soup, I am very happy I decided to stop here today. Thank you.

    Taiwanese Spicy

    I liked this concept of hot pot, although I was confused at first but they refill your broth, assuming with a base broth that mixes well with all flavors. Even though it isn't all you can eat, the portion size makes up for that, you don't need all you can eat lol. It's nice getting your hot pot to go, I should ask at the other spots bc why waste the broth! Some countries drink bone broth for breakfast and I'm all about saving food, I don't mind leftovers. I wanted to try a Taiwanese hot pot and I got the spicy beef one! There was a lot of things I wasn't sure about but it's not that big of a deal and just took them out but I tried them first! You never know what you will like! I really loved the Napa cabbage!!! Oh and please y'all, get the black tea, I came during lunch and it was complimentary but if not please get that black tea! It's the best black tea I have had in a long time! They do need to do something about the flies! I had to take a greedy fly out bc he kept trying to get my food and actually landed on it! I'm giving them five stars bc it was only one fly but made me think ya know. Now I wonder how the other restaurants ensure there aren't any flies! There must be a way and hopefully you guys figure that part out.

    Even though we didn't order the hot pot, we still had a really good experience at Tasty Pot! The food was overall delicious and definitely worth the visit. Workers were friendly! Ambiance good for friends and family! The popcorn chicken was a standout -- super flavorful and crispy. The beef skewers were also really yummy and well-seasoned. Rice was solid and did the job. The torpedo shrimp and the pork & shrimp egg rolls were just okay -- not bad, but not the highlight of the meal. For drinks, the taro milk tea with boba was good and satisfying. The Thai tea was okay, nothing special but still enjoyable. Overall, a solid spot with tasty food and good variety. Next time we'll probably try the hot pot, but even ordering off the appetizer menu was worth it!

    Delicious beef hot pot with a side of white rice. Enough for two people. Clean place, good environment to sit as well. Service was great, staff was welcoming

    Unfortunately, the flavors in the food were lacking. I had read that from others and even tried to add the available sauces. However, the sauces didn't do much and I was left wanting to find a way to enjoy the meal. Fortunately, the boba tea was good and I ordered a side of chicken skewers which tasted more fresh. Also, the setup is odd because you sit down and order using your phone yet at the end you walk up to pay. Not sure why we couldnt just pay using our phone since the location forces you to order using a phone. There is staff around that bring out the food and beverages, so there is some human interaction. When the servers were around, they were friendly. I wanted to like this place but the tasty pot was not worth it. For a place that features a hot pot, that meal is not there speciality. Back to the drawing board to explore other hot pots...

    I was about to write a review for boiling poi*t, but I decided to come back and get to the review for tasty pot. The overall ambiance was a bit unsettling with their tables not being the cleanest, the sauce containers having what seemed to be some residue as well as some bugs on there, and it just didn't feel the greatest. The service was good and was helpful with our meal, and the food itself was good, not great. There definitely could have been more flavors since the broth tastes a bit watered down. I was just overall put off by the ambiance and bugs on our table.

    Oden noodles with black pepper sauce
    Erik A.

    Super tasty food, I got the beef skillet with oden noodles. I can't wait to go back and try the other dishes. The lunch special comes with a green or black sweetened tea which are good as well. Cayden I think was the kids name that helped me as well as a girl who went over the menu with me. Very friendly people. The place is small and cozy vibe.

    Thai hot pot
    Tram N.

    My husband and I have dined in plenty of times, and each time we've always had a great experience with the food and staff. My go-to is always the Thai hot pot and my husband really enjoys the sizzling beef plate. The popcorn chicken they offer is tasty and crispy too! I think it's a great price for all of the food you're getting. If you dine in during their lunch hours, you get a free green or black tea. Both are really good and I wished they offered this complimentary drink during dinner too. You order via a QR code with your phone, or you can always order with the staff if you're not tech savvy. There are sauces that are left on the table to add to your liking. The restaurant is always super clean and there's usually plenty of tables. The longest we've ever waited was 5 minutes. This is usually our go-to, on rotation, restaurant when we want to eat out. Will definitely be back :)

    I was craving hotpot today and was so happy there was a Tasty Pot in the area! This was my first time trying the cheesy pot and it was so good. I love how the cheese slowly melts on top of the meat. Service was good. Drinks were delicious as well I liked the creame top wintermelon tea a lot! Skewers were great too!

    Full Flavor at Half Cost!…read more I have yet to experience anything negative from this establishment. Everything from customer service, pricing, portions, and quality has been nothing short of outstanding. Tucked next to the Eastern side of the food hall, you'll find this modest selling spot. I ordered the garlic noodles and the pork belly bao. I wanted something different from their iconic dan dan noodles (try those if you haven't) and boy was I surprised. There isn't seating with them, so you must find a spot in the general area, no problems there. The garlic noodles will have real chopped garlic with a delicious flavoring that will have you satisfied with a stinky breath (not sorry) and the pork belly bao is insanely tender, you'll think you're not even chewing over how soft it is. It's garnished with a mustard topping on a steamed bun. Both of these items were on happy hour and I was fulfilled while not breaking the bank. The owner really does take pride in his work and the quality he produces for us, always happy to support those who bring the passion to the kitchen. YUM

    Heads up: Misleading pricing, bad value, and hygiene concerns!…read more I walked into Jojo's Kitchen inside Haven City Market and ordered the House Special, but the total came out to a shocking $21. The posters on the wall only show images of the food. Sneakily, they only list price tags for the small, cheap side items--the actual price for the House Special is completely missing from the posters. You don't find out the real cost until the transaction is complete and it's already too late. The real kicker is that my card statement showed the charge under "DoorDash." They are running their walk-up register through a DoorDash POS system and forcing in-person customers to pay inflated app-delivery prices without warning. They need to put a tag on the register letting people know. If they were transparent, I could have placed a pickup order through my own DoorDash account to use a discount, or just ordered their $6.25 mini bowls separately to save nearly $9. Don't get me wrong, the Taiwanese sausage is actually good, but the popcorn chicken is way too dry and the rice is not good at all. To make matters worse, I paid $21 just to get half an egg! Most places give you a whole egg, and other restaurants would even provide a free drink with a combo at this price point. Getting a half-egg and no drink for a premium price is ridiculous. If you do eat here, I recommend just ordering the small snacks or trying their noodles instead of the main bowls. The owner's attitude itself was okay, but I noticed a major hygiene issue. He was sweating heavily from his forehead while packaging my food. He really needs to wear a sweat-absorbing headband because it looked like sweat could easily drip right into the customer's food. Also, there was a younger guy in the back (maybe the owner's kid or nephew), and when I asked him a question, he walked over in slow motion acting like a gangster and talked to me like he was rapping, just saying, "Yeah." Between the hidden app pricing, the poor value, and the sweat issue, it was a very frustrating experience.

I went to the A&J in SGV over a decade ago and was thrilled there is one in Irvine. They have the usual Taiwanese staples like nu rou mian (beef noodle soup), beef roll, and green onion pancake but they're done exceptionally well and have abundant portions. Bonus for me is they have a very cheap zhua bing, which I don't usually see on menus.
