Review Summary

Soup Zen Hot Pot is widely appreciated for its customizable build your own concept, featuring a diverse selection of fresh ingredients, flavorful broths, and a convenient sauce bar. Many patrons highlight the inclusive halal options, the cozy and clean atmosphere, and the popular complimentary ube soft serve as standout features of their experience. While many reviewers praise the friendly and accommodating service, particularly from specific staff members, others report inconsistencies in service speed, long wait times, and occasional organizational issues during peak hours. Opinions on pricing are mixed, with some finding it reasonable for the generous portions and others feeling it can become expensive depending on the weight of the ingredients chosen. Despite some concerns regarding crowded seating, hygiene, and occasional mix ups with orders, the overall sentiment remains positive for those seeking a fun, personalized dining experience in a lively environment.

very clean. & a lot of options for different type of toppings. ramen was very flavourful & their complementary ice cream at the end is so good. i'd go again just for the ice cream. portions are huge so do not overfill your bowl with toppings. they have 2 options for veggie broth which was nice.

If this food is available in your country, you shouldn't eat it; if it's not, you can still try it.

My husband & I have been to a lot of Hot Pot restaurants in Taiwan so were curious to see how the Zen HotPot compared. We were a table of 6 on a Saturday night. It was very busy but we were able to book in online & were seated once we all arrived. There is a great selection of items to choose from to put in your soup......various types of thinly sliced meats, lobster & fish balls, Basa Fish, vegetables, noodles etc.

You grab a bowl & a pair of tongs as you enter, pick the ingredients that you want & then pass it to the cashier who weighs your bowl & asks you what type of broth you'd like. Both my husband & I chose the'Signature Broth', medium spicy. We both like spice/heat but I wouldn't have wanted it any spicier. They have a nice selection of broths including a Tom Yum flavoured broth & even a Vegan Mushroom broth.

The cashier passes your bowl on to the kitchen who cook up all the ingredients up for you & eventually it is served to you at your table. For some reason, two of our party of 6 had their soup delivered long after the rest of us which was too bad.

If you have leftovers they do have Take Out bowls which you can bring home which is nice. Once you're finished they offer free Ube Ice Cream cones. Delicious & a nice way to finish the meal.

We had a lot of fun & I'd totally go back.

On a dû attendre plus de 1h30 pour avoir une place . Le service est vraiment lent. La nourriture est toutefois délicieuse, j'aime le concept de faire nous même nôtre plat.

Je suis malheureusement dans l'obligation d'accorder une seule étoile à mon expérience à cet établissement; la 1re raison est que la jeune dame à l'accueil était incapable de nous servir en français. La 2e raison est que le bouillon que j'ai choisi était moyennement épicé mais c'était extrêmement épicé même immangeable... probablement que la personne a mal compris ma demande vu qu'elle ne parlait pas français & qu'elle a entré ma commande' très épicé' alors que j'ai répété & exprimé clairement ma commande. (jeudi dernier)

Was super excited to try this place, especially since they offered halal options.

There is a wide variety of halal meat available. Depending on the time of day, the level of busyness varies. I did find it expensive for what it is, but I also chose a lot of protein options. The soup broth tasted pretty good.

The food overall has a lot of flavour. However, the person taking our order mixed up the spice level of my broth with my husband's. Also, I'm not sure what happened in the kitchen, but some of the items my husband chose ended up in my bowl. The order mix-up did irritate us a little. We mentioned it to the waitress, & she was apologetic.

They give you free ube ice cream at the end of the meal which is a nice treat after a hot soupy meal.
