Hotpot Spot

This was our first experience of 'hotpot' eating but it did not disappoint! The food was all very fresh, with a huge array of possible combinations of veg, meats, seafood, broths, sauces, etc. Also the dumplings and steamed buns were fantastic. The service was excellent and we will definitely be going back. Was great for a date but would also be fantastic with large groups.

Friendly staff - healthy, tasty food. Great experience. Spicy means spicy - so if not sure go for no chilli in your broth.

Really tasty and healthy! - great for a cold dark evening

My partner and I had a great time for lunch at the Hotpot Spot. The service was friendly and quick, and the food was excellent.

We ordered the vegetable plater and meat plater and they were both enormous. The vegetable platter, in particular, was bursting with a wide variety of yummy, fresh vegetables and two kinds of tofu.

We also got the fried bread and the belt noodles which were excellent.

A really enjoyable meal, and will definitely be back/tell everyone I know to go visit!

Came in for my birthday. We had a great time, it was a very different dining experience than I've ever had before. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. If you're looking for a unique dining experience in Cardiff I would definitely give this a try!

Could not recommend this place enough. A fun and tasty dining experience with friendly staff. Great value for money even without the voucher. Worth a try!

We had a lovely time at the hotpot spot yesterday! Such a relaxed atmosphere which is really great for conversation as you all try different things together. The tray full of veggies and meats was very easy to use and gave a great selection. The cocktails were delicious and very unique! We really enjoyed our time and my friends who had never had it before are going to bring their friends to experience it!

Absolutely love this place. Fresh and nutritious food and a great and fun way to make your food. We really enjoyed it and will be back for sure. Thank you at the Hot Pot spot.

Having lived in Asia, me and my partner both love Asian food so thought we would give this a try. The interactive experience was great and the food was so tasty. Especially loved the sauce making station. Service was great and we will be returning shortly. Thanks :)

Welcome environment from start to finish, the owner who hosted us was very helpful at all points of the meal. Food was delicious, recommend all the meats and the spicy broth. Tried the baos for dessert as well, can recommend. Overall authentic hot pot experience, will be going back and would recommend anyone who hasn't tried hot pot before to partake.

Lovely atmosphere with attentive staff who were willing to help. Loved trying something different and quirky, will definitely recommend.

There's nothing quite like sitting in front of a big steaming pile of broth and cooking everything to your liking. The menu is pretty extensive. We chose sliced beef and pork, squid, noodles & a huge veg platter. It was tons of food and the dipping sauces took it to another level. The broth itself was flavourful too. If you don't like hands-on dining this isn't for you, but it's definitely an experience.

Absolutely love going here. A great Asian dining experience for adventurous people. Great if you want to try new things. The food is so tasty and the service is great. We sometimes get given things on the house

Had a great time at Hotpot Spot. It is tucked out of the way on the first floor above the street which was nice. The staff were lovely and attentive considering how busy it got. I enjoyed the fun and accessible experience very much, it makes for a really entertaining dinner. Thank you!

Very unique experience with amazing service and delicious food... we will be back!! Highly recommended.

The broth is very good. With the nature of hotpot, you have to try it with fried tofu, youtiao or noodle to fully appreciate the broth because they absorb it during cooking. The sauce station has a variety of choices and if you don't know what to do, simply ask and he is very friendly and helpful. The potion looked small but was quite filling. You can always start small and add more if you want to.

Very happy with my meal at Hotpot Spot and glad to have a good hotpot place in Cardiff. I have had hotpot in China several times and found Hotpot Spot to be authentic and of a good quality. Part of the charm of Hotpot is making your own dipping sauce so it was nice to see a well-stocked sauce station. I've already booked to eat there again and I know my friend who dined with me plans to take his family there too. If anyone is new to Hotpot and unsure if it's for them, I'd encourage them to give it a try, it's a really fun and social way to eat.

Had a great experience, fresh food, great flavors! Will be returning!

Most incredible food and customer service experience!

My boyfriend is a meat lover and thoroughly enjoyed the meat selection. I am pescatarian and the whole meal surpassed my expectations, incredible veg, tofu and lobster all for such an incredible price.

The staff and very knowledge and the foods and how to cook them best, the manager even custom made a delicious sauce for us!

Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Great concept, cook your own meat, veg and noodles in a pot of stock on a hot plate. Wide range of tasty dipping sauces, bit messy but a lot of fun. My 11yr old loved it. Will be going back!

This is our 2nd time visiting HotPot Spot.
We love the novelty of cooking your own food in the resteraunt. The owner is lovely and very happy to explain about the food and last night we were lucky enough to sample some potential new food going onto the menu. Great night. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved hot pot spot!! The broth is delicious as are all the vegetables, noodles and meat to go in the broth. The sauce station is also great. The knife pare noodles and Chinese spinach were amazing!

We had a wonderful Sunday lunch experience at HotPot Spot, we were greeted and talk through the menu, it was a great introduction for those who have not had hotpot before. The owner was knowledgeable and eager to share his knowledge. Service was fast and we would have happily paid full price for it! We spent a blissful 2 hours dipping in and enjoying the novelty of it all.

Lovely food, very attentive staff, something different a great way to eat.

Arrived and was seated straightening away. Waitress was really polite and helpful with the choices. Had a great night and would definitely recommend to anyone thinking about going. I’ll be back.

I really enjoyed my meal at the Hot Pot Spot. It’s a very different dining experience with really delicious aisian food. The flavours were very fresh and the staff were very helpful. Definitely going back!

Love it. Great experience.

Loved it! It was fun, sociable, new, delicious, friendly and memorable. A great new dining experience for both of us. And crazy cheap!

My only moan is it’s not easy to find. But it’s lovely bright modern dining area with a welcoming warmth. You’re encouraged to take your time. Also impeccably clean.

Must try the spring rolls and lotus root and 4 is v hot!!!!

Thanks for a lovely evening I’m sure we will be back soon

We really enjoyed our experience at Hotpot spot this weekend. It was a fun experience cooking your own food and something we had not done before.
The waitresses were good at explaining what the set up was/how to cook eat item and they made some fab cocktails too!
I don’t think we quite understood the concept before going and although we had a really good time and the food was really tasty, it would be difficult to say if we’d go again. If you’re looking for a sit down served meal in your best dress then due to the messy, frantic nature this definitely isn’t for you!

I'd never had hotpot before and really liked it. We were a little gutted that the restaurant had run out of some of our favourite toppings but everything we did have was excellent. There are a great range of dipping sauces and the waitress gave us free top-ups on our green tea. We loved it and will be back!

We had a great time at hot pot stop. My daughter and I tried first table for the first time and made a fantastic mess of our table with our first Hotpot experience . The staff and service were great and we will certainly return again. The best ice cream I have ever eaten. Watermelon! Make sure you try it if you visit .

What a lovely experience! Great fun, all cooking and chatting together with the communal hot broth. The spicy (level 2) was enjoyed by everyone! The opportunity to pick your own is great for all people whether you favour vegetables or are an avid carnivore. Would recommend! A few cocktails were drunk and I particularly liked the elderflower sake one! The restaurant is quite new but the staff were happy to help. The sauces station is very nice, really opens you up to trying a variety of tastes with the same base. Well worth a visit!
