Originaire du Sichuan, en Chine, en 1994, Haidilao Hot Pot est la plus grande marque de fondue chinoise en gestion directe en Chine et une chaîne de restaurants chinois mondialement reconnue, dont le nombre total de visites de clients dépasse désormais 1 milliard.
Fondue Haidilao propose une experience hot pot vivante et conviviale avec des bouillons riches et variés, des ingrédients frais et un large choix de sauces qui permettent des combinaisons personnalisées; la viande et les fruits de mer sont souvent loués pour leur qualité, et les nouilles faites maison apportent un vrai spectacle; l'ambiance est dynamique et interactive, avec des démonstrations de nouilles et des chansons d'anniversaire qui font partie intégrante de l'expérience; le service est généralement décrit comme attentif et chaleureux, capable de guider les choix et d'accompagner pendant les heures de grande affluence; la clientèle apprécie la polyvalence pour des sorties en famille ou entre amis et la possibilité de prolonger l'expérience grâce au buffet de sauces et à des options de bouillon à emporter; des remarques mentionnent parfois des prix élevés et une ambiance très chargée ou bruyante, mais l'expérience reste globalement perçue comme unique, festive et de haute qualité, incitant à revenir régulièrement.
I had a really great experience at this hotpot restaurant! The food was fresh, flavorful, & there were so many options to choose from, which made the whole meal really fun & satisfying. What stood out the most though was the service. One of the workers, Steven, was very nice & honestly really cool. He was friendly, attentive, & made sure we had everything we needed without us even having to ask. His positive attitude made the whole dining experience even better. Definitely coming back again & highly recommend this place!
Used to be our favorite spot for vegetarian hotpot, but despite their website boasting them being vegetarian friendly, they've recently made the decision to add chicken powder to every soup base with no substitution possible, meaning its now impossible to eat there as a vegetarian.
When they told us this we went to leave but they insisted we stay & they would find a broth for us. After about 30 minutes of waiting they came out with hot water with seaweed in it, which really did not work at all. It was such an odd & comically bad situation. I really hope they go back to the old tomato & mushroom broths & just keep the chicken powder separate. Literally every other hot pot place has the option to make their broth vegetarian.
By far the best hotpot in Montreal! Great selections of meats & other dishes, & the service is always on point, Miller was our server, she was nice. You get free ice cream too at the end👌🏻
When we first came here it was our first hotpot experience & we found it interesting but a little rushed, & overwhelming. However after a second visit we expressed this, the care we received from management was truly great, very kind people. They made sure everything was right for us afterwards & let us stay as long as we wanted. The buffet is better bang for the buck but be aware that not all broths & meats from the after 5pm menu are included. Although lamb might not be for us, we found the whole experience quite interesting despite the unfamiliar flavours. The laksa broth we found was of the best. Be warned even the less spicy of the two spicy broths is very spicy & mouth numbing.

Favourite hotpot place in town. Good quality meat, good variety of choices (meat, veggies, sauces, etc) it even comes with a show (1 noodle dance, face mask change dance). Our server Steven was attentive, respectful & friendly, making sure our empty trays were taken care of, fat of the broth skimmed & we had enough broth throughout our meal. Can't recommend enough!
I always order their beef malatang combo from ubereats & they never disappoint. The combo is so worth it, filling & flavorful. Their diner service is also amazing; kind staff & fast service. One of my favorite restaurants to go to whenever I am craving for spicy & numbing hotpot
First time trying hotpot… our server Steven was so helpful in our choices. It was delicious & we were given complimentary ice cream, a great way to end the night!

Order their Haidilao.. house made fresh noodles.. they are best served. A great place for Chinese hotpot... Loved the seafood dips. They are open late that's good as well
5/5 Stars - Worth Every Kilometer of My Questionable Life Choices.
I drove 2 hours-yes, TWO full hours-just to eat at Haidilao, & honestly, if I had to walk barefoot through a snowstorm uphill both ways, I'd still do it.
This place isn't just a hotpot restaurant-it's a full-blown experience. I came for broth & meat, but stayed for the complimentary coded snacks, the apron they insisted I wear like I was about to perform surgery.
They treated me like royalty. I dropped a napkin & three staff members appeared out of nowhere like ninjas to replace it. I sneezed & someone offered me a warm towel & possibly a life coach.
The broth? Magical. The meats? Tender & majestic. The noodles? Danced in front of me like they were auditioning for So You Think You Can Stretch?
Would I ever go to another hotpot place? No. I'm loyal now, even if it's 2 hours away.
Go to Haidilao. But don't blame me when you find yourself planning your next road trip with a bib & a craving.
First time at a hotpot restaurant, lots of fun, good energy, & the broths were delicious. Our waiter Oliver was excellent, kind, helpful & friendly. He really helped us navigate our first hotpot experience. We will return
No words can explain how great my overall experience was.
Something I love about Haidilao is their consistency when it comes to quality of food & service, had a chance to eat in Haidilao Philippines & I can say that there is no difference at all!
I went to their Montreal branch last Saturday, & for someone who knows how long their wait time for walkin can take regardless of the time of the day I made sure to reserve a table.
We went there earlier than my booked reservation but they accomodated us, just needed to wait 30 mins before we were seated to our table.
From the time you enter their resto they will offer snacks, fruits, drinks, activities non-stop just to ensure that you will not get bored.
Upon being seated we were given the'essentials' - hairtie, wet wipes, glasses wipes & apron & asked to login to the tablet since I'm already a member. We were seated on a table at the 3rd floor, initially I thought service might have delays since kitchen was on the 1st floor BUT orders arrived less than 10mins!
What separates them among all other hotpot is how they let you customized your orders based on your preference, like I really love their Sichuan spicy soup but I always request for it to be less numbing & less spicy. They also have LOTS of varieties when it comes to their hotpot ingredients, majority of the balls are handmade & not the frozen hotpot balls that you can find on grocery stores. The quality of meat is exceptional, top choice will be beef as it really does melt in your mouth!!!
Though it has an additional price, their sauce bar is also worth it.
We tried the'popular secret code' regarding their soup but instead of a soup base we were given a bag full of snacks!!!
Another worth mentioning is their washroom, hotpot soup & sauce can leave strong smell so they have creams & even listerine available in all washrooom!
Hope to try mooooore Haidilao branches & continously be amazed with the quality of food & service they offer.
This has to be the best hotpot restaurant in Montreal, located in one of the most walkable street right in downtown St Catherine. The place is clean & classy & offers really great food at the right price. Service was great, it was fast & really attentive, thank you Fanta for explaining everything & being very welcoming! Food was really good from meat to vegetables all extremely fresh, lots of items available on the menu. There is also a sauce stand available for a small extra, all the sauces were presented very cleanly & freshly prepared. Fried pork was one of the favorite dishes, the spicy soup base is REALLY spicy so pick it only if you're prepared! Honestly highly recommended.
