But when I came yesterday, it was very chaotic. The cashier was not understanding the soup base I wanted & I had to make sure she got it right. Even then when my husband & I received our soup, they had mixed up both our broths. He wanted spicy tomato & I wanted no spice for mine. When I asked the server, she brought my soup back to the kitchen. I thought they were going to remake it from scratch but ended up just dumping out some of the spicy soup & diluting it. By the time I got my soup, all the vegetables were very wilted & still spicy since it soaked up the old broth & my noodles got soggy. I was really disappointed that they didn't remake it since it was their mistake. My husband was fine since he was able to add spice to his at least. Overall the concept is interesting but doesn't work since vegetables cook faster so you end always end up with things that are overcooked.
Everything here is halal, including the broths 🙌 - I checked before going in, & they confirmed it. It's such a relief to enjoy a full hot pot experience without worrying about ingredients! 🥘✨
There's so much variety to pick from - meats, veggies, noodles, & a great seafood selection 🦐🐙. I went with the plain beef broth & mixed my own sauces (perfect for customizing spice levels 🔥). Also got a small tom yum on the side just to try - totally worth it 😋.
The ambience is cozy & clean, with a modern feel. The gold cutlery looks gorgeous against the pastel walls - such a pretty, classy combo 💛🎨. Even the washrooms were spotless, which says a lot about how well they maintain the place 🚻✨.
The staff - from cashier to servers - were all super friendly, professional, & kind 👏. Loved that they even offer take-away bowls so nothing goes to waste ♻?.
& omg the ice cream at the end 🍦 - I don't even know what flavour it was, but it was so delicious! I asked for two & they actually said yes 😂💜.
⚠? Tip: There's usually a wait time, so it's smart to join the waitlist 10 minutes before arriving.
🚗 Parking: Street parking outside - if you're lucky, you'll grab a spot!
Great food, halal-friendly, & all-around good vibes. Definitely coming back! 💯✨
Genuinely amazing. Cheap for restaurant food. (4$ / 100g if I'm not mistaken). BONUS: Everybody gets free ice cream (Ube flavor) for dessert. All water is either lemon or lime water though, not really cold water either. Overall yummy, nice staff & cute atmosphere.
Wow! What an incredible hotpot place 😍🔥 You can pick your own ingredients & choose your broth too! They even gave me ice cream for dessert 🍦 It's the perfect spot to come back to in winter or autumn ❤?🤗
Nouveau resto de hot pot à Montréal où on choisit ses ingrédients & on paie au poids avec choix de bouillon ou dry pot (nouilles & ingrédients sautés & assaisonnés). Le bouillon signature était vraiment délicieux, belle qualité & variété d'ingrédients à choisir!! Tout était cuit à la perfection, rien de trop ou pas assez cuit. Petit bar à sauces dans le fond du resto aussi. Il y avait 1:30 d'attente pour les tables mais on a pu s'asseoir au comptoir sans attente! Délicieuse crème glacée au ube servie à la fin & incluse dans le prix, une belle surprise!
Pretty standard build-your-own hotpot location. Bright & spacious, with a unique earthy palette. They have more unique offerings than most places, like smoked duck breast, fried egg, & zig-zag-cut fried tofu.
I got the tomato broth, it had strong tomato flavours, but was very one-note. I needed to add complexity to it at the sauce bar, which in contrast, had limited options.
They give everybody ube ice cream at the end, it was very pleasant, rich, creamy, with strong ube notes.
The concept is awesome & the food was good overall - However - while there are vegan options, the tofu tasted fishy, which was off-putting (probably because people use the same tongs for getting different ingredients)
The mushroom broth had very little flavor, but I look forward to trying the tomato broth next time.
I do wish they cut the ingredients smaller so that they cooked a bit more. The harder veggies like carrots & broccoli are still hard
Food: Fresh ingredients & decent broth, with lots of variety.
Cultural issue: This isn't really hotpot in the traditional sense. What Soup Zen serves is much closer to Chinese málàtàng - a Sichuan street food style where you pick your ingredients & they're cooked in spicy broth & served individually. Hotpot, by contrast, is a shared, communal meal. The restaurant markets everything as'hotpot' &'Asian fusion' without ever acknowledging malatang or Sichuan origins, which feels like a missed opportunity & a flattening of culture.
Atmosphere: The interior is styled more like a European café than an Asian eatery. It doesn't match the cuisine's roots & makes the experience feel more like a concept restaurant than something tied to its heritage.
Overall: Good food, but I'd like to see Soup Zen respect the distinction between hotpot & malatang & give proper credit to its Chinese/Sichuan roots. Some cultural acknowledgment & more fitting decor would go a long way.
Wow super bon, ambiance non bruyante, service génial par gens souriants je recommande vraiment mais réservé lolll
I ate at Soup Zen after running the Beneva Marathon & it was perfect. I sat at the bar, the reception offered me a free drink, but I forgot to mention it to the cashier. So if you are eating alone, sit at the bar & let the cashier know. The food was great & hit the spot after a long run.
Concept novateur ou l'on choisit soi-même les ingrédients de notre soupe. Le tarif est au poids. Ensuite on choisit un bouillon puis le chef prends notre bol remplis de nos ingrédients & procède à la cuisson. Notre soupe est ensuite servi à notre table. Les ingrédients sont frais & le choix est vaste.
Le résultat est délicieux. 🤤
I found the tomato broth is so delicious.They also have many options for vegetarian too & the ube ice cream is very yummy.
Super spot pour les amateurs de nouilles ! les bouillons vraiment savoureux. Le service est rapide & très sympathique, ce qui rend l'expérience encore meilleure. Ambiance conviviale, idéale pour un repas rapide mais de qualité. Je recommande vivement 😊
Un peu chaotique à notre arrivée, il n'y avait personne à l'entrée pour nous accueillir. Beaucoup de choix d'aliments pour composer notre plat, pour tous les goûts, faire attention le prix peut monter rapidement avec le poids du bol, cela m'a coûté 25$. Ils n'ont pas mis le bon bouillon que j'ai demandé il était épicé alors que j'avais demandé non épicé, mais il était goûteux. La crème glacée est offerte mais ce n'est pas clair de la façon que l'on peut l'obtenir. 3.5 étoiles
It's a nice place, the food is delicious but the ice cream is amazing 🫶
