Great spot for a family night or even a first date. Busy atmosphere. Meats, seafood and vegetables are fresh. We had a great celebrating my daughter’s birthday. Oh and the kpot bear comes to your booth and they sing happy birthday. So cute.

I went here to celebrate a belated birthday dinner for my son. He was a bit frustrated on what to do in the beginning but our server, Jon T. was awesome in explaining how it all worked and put out minds at ease. After five minutes, it seemed like my son was a pro. He so enjoyed cooking his own food creation at the table and actually, so did I. I will come here again now that I have a plan on my next fun food creation. However, make sure that you are hungry, really hungry when you visit so you are getting your money's worth. This place is very nice and calm and pretty to look around. I would have loved to see a huge fish tank some place with lights but that is just me trying to redecorate.. lol Give this place a try. It's great

I frequent this place a lot :) I really enjoy the food, the service, and the overall vibe. The people that work here are also really pleasant. Shout out to all of them. They make having a meal there even more enjoyable. I typically do both the hot pot and bbq. I get the pork sesame broth with fishcakes, black fungus, quail eggs, and meat balls. I also get the short ribs, pork cheek, and the porkbelly

I’ve been to several Kpot location but this one is nice. Our server was very accommodating and super friendly. He even offer cupcake to all the father after the bill was paid. We had a large group of 11 and the server ensure he check on us frequently. The only negative thing I have to say is the restaurant not having any butter because the grill kept on getting burn quickly and the beef tastes dried. We were able to order rounds of drinks to the table. If you love hot pot and Korean beef then this is the place for you. Reasonable price if you have a huge appetite other you’re better off going to an actual Korean restaurant and order individual entrees.

The newest Korean Hot Pot experience in Northeast Philadelphia. Been here twice so far and each time has been great. The service staff is great and will even do a little song for birthdays, we went on a night with 5 birthday tables!

We were a party of three on 5/31/25, celebrating a birthday, our server was named “Aaron” I believe, he was super sweet, communicative, patient, and friendly.

I've never done something like this before, and I really liked it! The food was really good, and the service was quick. We got our ingredients very shortly after ordering, and our server Carlos checked in on us very regularly to see if we needed any refills or extra food. Great server, by the way, kudos to you, Carlos, if you read this. Cool guy. Overall a fun experience. A little pricey, but it is a buffet and the food is good, so I didn't mind too much. I'd like to come back from time to time.

I couldn’t wait for this location to open up!!! I always travel to the one in Franklin Mills glad there’s a spot close to home. Came in shortly after they opened was seated immediately! The waiter greeted us and asked if we’ve ever been before and of course we have but it was nice that he asked. We had no problems ordering or switching out the hot plate or asking for drinks. Definitely will be back!!!!
