Really great individual hot pot deal for weekday lunch. It's $14.99 for the pot and a kumquat drink so it's such a good deal, especially in comparison to Boiling Point which the prices for have gone up recently and there's always a long line there. I also love the unique flavor options here! I really enjoyed the Mongolian lamb pot, the flavor of the broth was good and the lamb wasn't too gamey. The Thai style one was like a tom yum soup base. Both pots came with endless amounts of toppings and a choice of vermicelli or rice. I love individual hot pot because you can try a little bit of a lot of different things. Service was fast and efficient and the interior is spacious and clean. I'll definitely be back when I get my next hot pot craving! read more

Two strikes so I've got to write. :( First incident: I had a good experience the first time I came here so I brought my husband and my sister back. Hubby ordered the salmon rice. The picture on the menu shows a piece of grilled salmon but what they brought out was totally different. Thank god, it was good anyway. Sister and I trying to order the same hot pot I ordered before and owner told us no, we cannot swap the pork belly out on the Thai hotpot. Told him I was able to do that before. He said "I'm not sure who let you do that but no, we do not allow that." I told him "you did, you let me swap the pork belly for the lean beef the previous time. I still have a picture of it on Yelp". Anyhow, he insisted No. We went ahead and ordered two beef hotpot's and the broth was salty. We had to pour some water in the hotpot to soften up the saltiness. Second incident: I came here on Thursday evening. Walked in that door at 9:10 pm and the server quickly told me: "No, we already had our last call!" Say what? the sign on the door says open til 10:00 pm and it is only 9:10 pm? If you don't want to serve late, then change your hours listed on the door and close those doors at 9:00 pm instead. Not good!!! read more

Not crowded for a Saturday lunch. The restaurant was neat, nicely decorated, and all the people already seated seem to enjoying their food. We were given water and our sodas quickly and were surprised to receive a complimentary fruit drink (not sure what exactly it was but was delightful and refreshing!). We ordered beef hot pots with alot of meat and veg; so yummy! And a side of fries that were perfectly crispy. Definitely will come back again! read more

Came here 3 weeks ago. Very similar to Tasty Pot. I forgot what I ordered but it was delicious with the dipping sauce. Very spacious parking lot and dinning area. Big enough to accommodate big groups of 10-12. Our waiter was super friendly but hasn't come back to check up on us after our food got delivered. Would definitely come back when I'm back in OC. read more

Came here on a cold night craving hot pot and didn't feel like dealing with Boiling Point's ridiculous wait. ZZ Hot Pot hit the spot and it's on par in my book. Nguyen was our server and he was great: friendly, attentive, no fuss. The food came out exactly as expected, everything tasted solid, and the experience was smooth from start to finish. No complaints. This is a reliable hot pot spot when you want a quick and causal meal. read more

I've been here twice now around dinner time during the weekdays and this is one of my new favorite hot pot places compared to Boiling Point. I'm usually able to order my food fast and it has a lot of veggies and meat. I really like the original beef and I like that there are no peanuts in the sauce. When you order you also get a free side of kumquat juice. Parking is quite abundant in this location. I really like the service and ambience as well as the staff are very nice and kind to explain any of the dishes and the seating inside is very modern with really pretty light so I really enjoy talking there as well. I highly recommend trying this location. The food is great quality and great on a cold day. read more

Located in a plaza, parking was easy to find and plenty of neighboring restaurants. The space is well-lit and clean. We ordered the spicy duck blood and It was well made-- the texture and taste was spot on. For my meal, my hot pot was supposedly Japanese with miso but it tasted more like kombu (seaweed). The hot pot portion was plenty and great choices of ingredient. Highly recommended. Would out this on my dining list. read more

Went into the restaurant during lunch hours and it was pretty busy. There was happy hour going on for $15 hotpots. I went with my mother and we shared a shrimp garlic with garlic noodles and the zz house special hot pot. The food was really delicious. Honestly I am not too fond of garlic noodles because they all taste the same to me, but when i saw this i was skeptical because it was a bit saucy. However, looks were deceiving because wow this amazed me. It was actually really yummy and garlicy and the sauce was perfect not too savory and not too sweet. Moreover, the hotpot was also really good, what I love about this place is how good their side sauces were . I think for me the sauces make/break how well the broth is because i do really enjoy dipping my food in it. Overall, I really enjoyed this place. I would totally recommend this place and would go here again. I probably would want to try a thai style hot pot next!! read more

Came to ZZ Hotpot post-rave and it totally hit the spot. I got the beef hotpot and garlic beef noodles, and both were super yum. flavorful, comforting, and just what I needed after a rave. It was super good, the meat was cooked well and not chewy. The sides were nice and the sauces were perfect. they had my favorite sesame sauce and it paired perfectly with everything. The service was great and the ambiance was modern and clean, giving off a nice late-night chill vibe. Perfect spot to unwind and refuel after a long night. definitely coming back. read more

I've been here a few times and I love it. The best deal is coming before 5pm on weekdays- hot pot is only $15. I always get the Salted Egg shaken fries and the crispy pork intestine.

9/10 Mongolian Hot Pot - This is absolutely delicious! With so many options to choose from, you really can't go wrong. I specifically wanted one with udon noodles, and this was the only option that had them. It comes packed with ingredients--two shrimp, udon, mushrooms, cabbage, tofu, and more (I honestly can't remember everything, haha). 8/10 Cost - $22.45 in total with tax and tip--such a great price! I'm so happy about it! Plus, they include a free little honeycomb drink and a generous scoop of rice on the side. I've been back multiple times, and I'll definitely keep coming! read more

We ordered the beef hot pot, salmon with garlic fried rice, garlic noodles with crispy salmon and the saltado shaken fries. Everything was good from the service to the food. Service was fast and food was delicious. Beef hot pot had a lot of proteins and veggies and it was very flavorful. I loved all the sauces on the table for dipping. The salmon was very crispy and garlic noodles were very tasty. The garlic fried rice was good and the sauce with the salmon complimented it well. The shaken fries didn't have enough meat and had too much onions and bell peppers but the fries were still nice and crispy and the flavors were there. The complimentary honey kumquat drinks were refreshing. The water however was horrid. I thought coming out of a nice water pitcher that it was filtered but they said it was tap. I enjoyed the food and would come back again. read more

I ordered the Malatang pot. I'm always a fan of these types of hotpots where everything is preset and you just pick your pot. Overall, I really liked the cozy interior. Super cute vibes inside the restaurant. I also loved that they offered complimentary passion fruit tea. It was delicious! That said, I felt like something was missing from my pot. There wasn't much of a "wow" factor. The broth kind of reminded me of pho, but without the hoisin or sriracha. I guess I was expecting a different flavor profile. Also, I wish they had used fattier slices of beef. The ones in my pot were a bit too lean. Still, I appreciated the variety of ingredients in the pot. read more

Such a cozy restaurant!! I went on Sunday evening and came before the dinner crowd, so it wasn't too crowded. Their Christmas decor was the cutest. They were quick with our food, but still apologized that we had to wait The fries came out nice and hot, and were such a yummy snack while we talked. The food came out and the flame lasted so long Đi my food was hot the whole time. As a slow eater, I was thankful for that part! Overall I recommend..support your small businesses!! read more

Wanted some hotpot for the cold weather. I got the beef hotpot and my boyfriend got the spicy taiwanese hotpot. He says it's better than Boiling Point. Soup bases were flavorful, but I would say that the toppings were pretty minimal, they give you 1 or 2 of each. Service was pretty decent. Nice clean aesthetic interior. Would come back again! read more

Service: 4/5 Friendly but wish we were checked on more. And need to pay up front. Food: 6/5 The Thai and Taiwanese Hotpot are amazing. Lots of different meats and vegetables... amazing. Complimentary tea is amazing too, and I usually don't like tea. Very spacious. My favorite hotpot. Demolished before we could take pictures. :))) read more

Tried this spot the other night, and I gotta say, it's the best Boiling Point dupe out there. It was my first time here and I can confidently say that it was a great experience! I love that they use the Yelp waitlist so you can sign on before getting there. We arrived around 7pm on a Tuesday and there was no wait. The restaurant itself is an average size, probably seats like 40 people. We got sat in a booth and scanned the QR code for the menu. Their menu consisted of some popular Vietnamese staples like garlic noodles, hot pot, bobas, and your typical boba shop appetizers. We both got a beef hotpot and split the crispy couple which came with fried tofu and fried fish balls. The hotpot also came with a side of rice or vermicelli (I got rice). We also got to try their complimentary kumquat juice and it was so good! Our server was super friendly, and I love that they offer broth refills. I got my pot at a danger spice level and honestly, it wasn't that bad. It would probably be the same level spice as a medium at BP. The pot itself was filling and came with tons of meats and other proteins and veggies. This place really nails the soup flavor and I'm glad I got to try them out. Parking was pretty easy as it's located in a not so busy plaza, although I can see that plaza being busy with the other shops surrounding it. read more

Eh... this is basically a poor man's Boiling Point. Most recent visit was no bueno. Broth was off, meat was tough, cabbage not cut well - felt like the quality of ingredients dropped. I would much rather go to BP. read more

I really wanted BP and since I've never had ZZ Hotpot but saw good reviews on this place, I came here to try. Pot menu options are very similar but the taste and the ingredients that go into the pot aren't identical. I tried the Korean Kimchi Pot. The ingredients are as listed: "Pork belly, cabbage, soybean sprout, enoki mushroom, chives, carrots, green zucchini, soft tofu, lobster ball, fish fillet, fish tofu, mini sausage, crown daisy, seaweed, kimchi" - There was a lot of cabbage. Most of the pot was cabbage. - Maybe a bite full of kimchi and soybean sprouts together only - A tiny bundle of enoki - A piece and a half of fish fillet - Mini sausage is spam - 1 lobster ball - 3 or 4 squares of soft tofu - Seaweed was a stack of cut roasted seaweed - 3 big semicircles of zucchini - 4 big cuts of carrot The taste was much kimchi sour forward, not so much meaty and deep. There's a lot of veg in this and sadly did not find noodles underneath. Each pot does come with your choice of a bowl of vermicelli or rice that has a sprinkle of furikake and a honey kumquat small drink (love this). For a medium spicy, it's a slow kick that isn't very spicy yet you'll find yourself dabbing your nose with a napkin. Overall, it's a good place alone if you don't compare it to the other restaurants. I am very curious how their drinks are. I'd give this place another try again with a different order. read more

Such an underrated restaurant! :) They offer a decent range of hotpot flavors and a bunch of other dishes as well! It was our second time coming and we were quite impressed. Compared to other hotpot places that we've been to, the flavors were pretty similar and had a decent amount of toppings. Our favorite part is that they offer a stamp card which is so unique! * Beef Hot Pot: 7/10 - good amount of meat and veggies * Thai Style Hot Pot: 8/10 - nice broth * Honey Kumquat Tea: 9/10 - my family enjoyed it We came when they first opened and there seemed to be only 1 person working during that time. Even though he was scrambling, he managed to serve all the tables efficiently. My sister and I believe he deserves more than he gets paid. The place is a lot more spacious than we remembered so there are plenty of tables to sit at. It's located in a large plaza with a bunch of other restaurants so parking shouldn't be too difficult but can get crowded at peak times. We'll be sure to return regularly! read more

Tasty but I'm always a bit biased to hot pot, especially on a cold day. Portions are pretty standard across these single-person style hot pot. Servers were attentive to my needs. A newer restaurant at the time I went and I recall it was clean and modern. They also offered a free drink with check in. I got a taro milk tea with boba which was actually pretty tasty.

ZZ Hotpot House - House Special Hot Pot (Mild). - Taiwanese Near Me - Garden Grove, California

I've been waiting for a decent Taiwanese hot pot spot nearby for a really long time and ZZ Hotpot House is definitely hitting the mark! The ZZ Hotpot Special has the broth that's about 80% similar to the classic Taiwanese 3 mom Stinky Tofu hot pot brand (三媽臭臭鍋) which is already a win in my book! It even comes with a piece of pork blood cake and a few slices of pork intestine, trying to represent the authentic taste. (Almost there as my point of view.) The Taiwanese Spicy Hot Pot is served with beef slices by default, and unfortunately, they don't allow substitutions for pork slices so I skipped it this time. The Seafood and Japanese Hot Pot came with two fairly large shrimps, what a nice touch. Veggies are generously piled under the hot pot, so you get plenty of greens in every pot. They offer four different sauces each table for you to mix and customize to your liking. Compared to Boiling Point, this place has a more diverse selection of Asian-style hot pots, including flavors from Vietnam, Thailand, Korea, Japan, Sichuan, Nanjing, and Mongolia. Right now, they have a happy hour deal (Monday to Friday, 11:00 AM - 5:00 PM) where each pot is just $14.95, and it comes with a free drink plus your choice of white rice or glass noodles, I consider super worth it! This spot is definitely going on my go-to list for those lazy days when I don't feel like cooking. ZZ Hotpot House 14291 Euclid St D113, Garden Grove, CA 92843 read more

ZZ Hotpot has actually been a spot that I wanted to visit for a while but I was extremely disappointed. When ordering, I wanted the taiwanese hot pot but saw that it had peanuts. Since I'm allergic (WITH AN EPIPEN), I asked if they could skip the peanuts and they said no. So I ordered the Nanjing hot pot instead since the menu doesn't say it has peanuts. When one of the servers brought out my boyfriend's pot, I asked for napkins and he completely ignored me. I'm not sure if I spoke loudly enough but there wasn't even any reaction at all - just put the pot down and left. Then when asked if the sauces had any peanuts, it took like 3minutes to ask a simple yes or no question. Then my pot came and after maybe 10-15minutes of eating it, the server comes back to tell me that my pot had peanuts in it. Luckily, I only had a couple bites but my lungs and throat already started to feel tight 5minutes after. I ordered another pot because I was starving at this point and at the end of our meal, they didn't comp out my portion until my boyfriend brought it up as a courtesy of almost causing a trip to the ER. TLDR; service was trash, employees and menu apparently not on the same page, and no apology or acknowledge of a huge mistake until my boyfriend brought it up. I won't be coming back and I'm telling everyone I know to not come either. read more

Our go-to hot pot spot--we've been here at least 10 times and keep coming back weekly. The food is always fresh, prices are super reasonable (especially with happy hour), and you even get a free tea with your meal! Clear vegan options, great service every time, and the vibe is cute and casual. They always have fun millennial throwback music playing, which makes it feel extra cozy. read more

The French colonized Vietnam around the 1850s, which gave birth to a new era of Vietnamese cuisine. They introduced rich and fatty ingredients like dairy: milk, butter, foie gras, etc., so without them, Vietnamese culture wouldn't be where they are today. Zz Hotpot is known for its variety of soupy entrees with various ingredients toppings. On a cold day or in the winter season, this meal warms up the soul, mind, and body. Have a little sesame and ponzu sauce on the side to dip with, and oh my gosh, it's a treat made in heaven. But surprisingly, we ordered the Shaken Beef here as an appetizer to and share with. The beef cubes were on a bed of freshly tossed salad with diced tomatoes and slices of white onions, then garnished with mini-fried garlic chips and parsley. The dish's color was vibrant, and its aroma captivated my nostrils. The richness of the butter and sauteed beef created a salivating experience. So I immediately grabbed my fork and picked up some meat and vegetables, and wow...that beef was so tender, most likely a tenderloin, and juicy. The beef oozed savoriness, but the raw white onions and tomatoes complimented this exquisite bite in no time. But don't take my word for it. Give it a try and let me know. :) read more

The food and experience was nice for an afternoon lunch. I went in on Sunday and there was no wait. While we were deciding on our hotpot they gave us each a complimentary sweet, fruit-flavored drink. I got the new Japanese Style Hotpot medium spicy and it was good. I loved the meat, seafood, and vegetables in the soup! I had the sip of the Creamy Curry Hotpot after it boiled some more and it was also good. The place was clean and so was the restroom when I went to wash my hands. I would come back especially during their happy hours! They gave me a stamp card too before I left! read more

Nice new food spot, run by younger people. Food is very similar to Boiling Point with a couple of their own twists. There seems to be more hot pot options as well as more appetizers... Not to compare. Not going to lie, it isn't the cleanest establishement I've been to, but they are busy - and I give them credit for doing their best. If I was in the area I would definitely consider coming by again. I had the House Pot.
