Originally from Sichuan, China, in 1994, Haidilao Hot Pot is the largest direct-managed Chinese hot pot brand in China and a globally recognized Chinese restaurant chain, with the total number of customer visits now exceeding 1 billion.
Fondue Haidilao consistently earns praise for high-quality, fresh ingredients and flavorful broths, delivering an immersive hot pot experience with interactive features like noodle dances and birthday celebrations. The service is repeatedly described as attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere is lively and festive, with a broad sauce bar and extensive selections of meat, vegetables, and noodles that invite customization. The all-you-can-eat option in the evening is a popular draw for groups. However, it can be very busy with long waits, cramped seating at times, and occasional service hiccups, especially on off nights; language barriers at the front desk are also noted by some. Alcohol is not served. Overall, Fondue Haidilao is viewed as a standout, experiential restaurant where food quality and service excellence create a memorable, repeat-worthy visit, even if prices can feel high to some guests.

Le temps d'attente était un peu long vu que c'était rush hour sinon c'était une bonne expérience! Le serveur Olivier très mignon, gentil & il explique bien :)
Super amazing food! I loved it so much the flavors were amazing, the onion brothers was fire. Oliver's service was great too. $50 pp & $30 AYCE after 9pm on weekdays.
Amazing first experience with Haidilao! The wide variety of options to choose from was a delight, though the service is truly what seals this place at five stars for me.
Our waitress Marie was an absolute sweetheart. She was energetic, attentive & very friendly! She truly curated one of my favourite dining experiences in a minute.
