Service was good throughout the meal. The pork bone broth we chose was delicious. The signature marinated beef was a bit of a miss for us. Didn't taste like much. For anyone who's planning on going, please review carefully your receipts before paying as there could be mistakes or extra charges for nothing. After coming back home, we looked at our receipt carefully & realized they had charged us for the sauce "bar" although we did not ask for it nor did we take any. We were a party of 4 so we basically paid a total of 16$ + tx for sauces we didn't even use. I guess it was our fault partly for not reviewing carefully the receipt at the restaurant. Also, one of the managers (I think he was a manager) gave us his words that he would be giving us a 12% discount if we managed to finish our meal within 90 minutes. Which we did... but we ended up having only a 6% discount. I don't know if they were just honest mistakes from their part or if it was deliberately done...but hopefully its the former! So pls be careful before paying!! We learned our lesson & not sure we want to come back agin because of this...

We had never been to a hot pot restaurant before but Beibei was so friendly & helped explain the process. He recommended the Sukiyaki soup base & it was delicious. Service was great, food was amazing- would definitely go back!

What a great experience!! I recommend having a reservation (you might still wait to be seated), but it's worth the wait. Beibei our server was very kind & patient. Hands down the best hot pot spot in Montreal.
