My only complaint is that the receptionist/hostess Jennifer was very rude. At first we were told we could check in as long as the majority of our party was there, once we had 5/7 people with us we went to the front desk and she very obnoxiously rolled her eyes and did not want to seat us. She was short the rest of the interaction and rude to the point that we were all confused. It was my friends birthday dinner so this was quite upsetting for everyone. As a receptionist myself I was very shocked at this behavior.

My server, Sunay, radiated wonderful energy and ensured a seamless dining experience by keeping the premium cuts arriving consistently. By the end of the evening, I had enjoyed eleven servings of meat, complemented by an assortment of sides and fresh vegetables - the price an absolute steal. This place will undoubtedly remain at the top of my list for my next hotpot craving.

The chefs do an amazing job at preparing these entrees, many of the plates are spicy but THE FLAVOR is immaculate!

Over all this restaurant is a must try, easily one of our favorites!

I ordered chicken lo mein, garlicky Chinese vegetables (I selected the gailan), and vegetable spring rolls. The lo mein was good. The garlicky gailan was excellent, and so were the spring rolls. When I heated up some leftovers I combined the gailan with the lo mein which really elevated the whole thing. It's like you can taste the love that they cook into the food. Five stars!

My friends and I went on a Thursday night to enjoy some korean bbq and karoake afterwards. First off, they had these super light, wonky cushioned sectionals which didn't handle any movement well. We got the all you can eat and the meats were okay quality. Flavor and taste was decent, but not the best. Asian karoake is a rare find in San Antonio so this is the place. Although it may not be as clean or new, the job is done if you're in for a good night with karoake in private rooms. Plenty of asian song options and YouTube is linked as well.

I came in around 11 PM specifically because I was looking forward to their advertised…read moreall-you-can-eat option, which is listed as available until 2 a.m. When I arrived, I was told I could not order the all-you-can-eat menu unless there were at least two people in the party. This requirement is not posted anywhere on their website, menu, or in-store signage. If this is an actual policy, it needs to be clearly disclosed so customers are aware before coming in. The restaurant was not busy at the time, with several open tables, so it did not appear to be related to capacity or kitchen limitations. I asked if I could speak with a manager to clarify, but was told the server's decision was final and no manager was available. Overall, it was frustrating to arrive expecting a clearly advertised late-night all-you-can-eat option only to be told it is not available to solo diners without any prior notice. Better communication and transparency would prevent situations like this in the future.

When J-Pot first opened, it quickly became one of our favorite restaurants in San Antonio. The…read moreatmosphere was warm, welcoming, and genuinely felt like the staff wanted you there. Even on busy weekends, managers were constantly checking on guests, the self-serve bars were fully stocked, and the servers were knowledgeable about the menu and enthusiastic about the experience. It felt like they were trying to showcase Japanese barbecue and hot pot--not just serve a meal. Fast forward to today's visit... what happened? From the moment we walked in, the hostess acted like our arrival was an inconvenience, despite greeting customers being the job description. Our server was pleasant enough, but completely lacked enthusiasm for the product. At one point, when discussing an item, the response was essentially, "If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it." Fair enough--but that's light-years away from the hospitality we experienced just a few months ago. The self-serve stations have apparently changed, and several items now have to be ordered through the server. That's perfectly fine, but it would've been nice if someone had explained that at the beginning of the meal instead of us discovering it near the end. Then there were the bathrooms... I'm not a restaurant owner, but if you're open during Saturday lunch in the middle of a shopping center and business appears slower than it once was, you'd think keeping the restrooms clean would be a manageable priority. Soap dispensers were hanging off the wall, paper towels were stacked all over the bathroom, trash covered the floors, and--ironically--I found the napkins I couldn't get at my table... in the restroom. The employees clearing tables looked less like restaurant staff and more like high school students serving detention or trying to earn extra credit. The whole place feels like it lost its identity. What was once a polished, family-friendly restaurant with pride in the experience now gives off a "Come on, man... it's not that big of a deal if things are a little gross. We're trying our hardest." vibe. J-Pot used to have standards. Somewhere along the way, those standards seem to have been replaced by cost-cutting and indifference. The food is still good(ish, but that for a different time), but the experience that made this place special has largely disappeared--and that's the most disappointing part. Will JPot bounce back? Or will Jpot succumb to the lackadaisical labor mentality of the modern day employee (I blame communism) and commit seppuku??? The world awaits....

I used Doordash, which I usually have pretty good luck with, especially when my son orders it through his own account. After waiting more than twenty minutes after the delivery time, I got a text from the dasher telling me to cancel the order. My son had already told me about that scam. You go into the app and get the support folks to cancel it, or it is called "customer initiated" and you lose your refund. Anyway, Doordash had the order redone and delivered with a new driver. Let's get to Sichuan Garden. I ordered from here because they had some "non- standard" offerings. I lived in Taiwan a while back and upon return to the US never acquired a taste for the supposedly authentic Americanized dishes. I ordered stir fried pork tripe and pork intestines in spicy chili sauce. I got a complimentary side of fried rice with each of them. I also ordered beef lomein for my son and 4 eggrolls. I tasted the lomein, and it was just okay. I have definitely had better. The egg rolls were "delivery soggy" but tasted fantastic. Can't complain there. The trip and intestine dishes were both delicious. I could eat them every day for the rest of my life and be satisfied. The fried rice, though, was awful. I used it the next day to make a much more improved version at home. All in all, I like the food from Sichuan Garden. I am anxious to go there and dine in. There are some other "non-standard" items I want to try.

THIS PLACE IS REALLY GOOD! GREAT SERVICE AS WELL!…read more Food: 4/5 The food has a great taste! I really loved the galbi, it was a little sweet but very good. The Banchan aren't what I'm used to, I guess I wish there was more variety. No rice paper, no radish, no mac salad, no potato salad...we did order the fried dumplings- they were good. Service: 5/5 They're very kind and attentive! The small group of women who run this place are doing a phenomenal job. All around:4/5. The plates are a bit small (I am a light eater and still found them not very big for the price) not ridiculously small, but on the smaller side. I am also used to Koreatown - Los Angeles Korean food which I feel is a league of its own (lol) so it's definitely hard for me to like just any Korean food. All in all It's a little far and out of our way, but we will definitely come back. :)

As an entree, I ordered the spicy tofu soup, but I wish it was a little spicier! The soup also had a stronger seafood/fish taste compared to other tofu soups I've had, which I didn't expect.
