You can enjoy the authentic taste of hot pot you had in China right in Takadanobaba. The staff's service is just like in China, adding soup at the perfect timing. It's recommended to visit with a large group to enjoy various ingredients you had in China.

I was able to enjoy an authentic hot pot that doesn't seem like it's from Japan. The level of spiciness and flavor is on a different level. You may need some preparation, but I was very satisfied. There is also the fun of mixing your own sauce. If you're not good with spicy food, try the mild or less spicy options.

This is my third time at this hot pot restaurant. My wife, who loves authentic Chinese food, says it's not too spicy and quite sweet. For me, it's already spicy enough haha. The variety of meat dishes available for all-you-can-eat at this hot pot restaurant is amazing, as shown in the photo. However, the squid was too spicy for me!

The Chinese hot pot restaurant near Takadanobaba Station is famous for its course meals. You can order the course meal and enjoy a buffet-style selection of side dishes and condiments separately. The food was a bit spicier than expected, but I managed to finish it while drinking water in between. If you like spicy food, I recommend giving it a try!

Located 2-3 minutes west of Waseda Street from Takadanobaba Station, this Sichuan hot pot restaurant is on the 3rd floor of a mixed-use building with nearby izakayas and karaoke bars. Upon entering, you are greeted by a large, flashy doll and the aroma of Chinese medicinal herbs. The bright and spacious interior can accommodate up to 50 people, mostly Chinese customers, giving it an authentic feel. Orders are placed using a touch panel, with helpful explanations from the Chinese staff for first-time visitors. I opted for the special Ma La and medicinal herb soup, along with a variety of vegetables and thinly sliced meat. The hot pot base features a unique solid lard in the shape of a thumbs up, with Ma La on the outside and medicinal herb soup in the center. The Ma La was quite spicy, while the medicinal herb soup was mild and delicious. The portions were generous, and the overall experience had a good balance of authenticity and entertainment value. They accept PayPay for payment, and I look forward to trying their lunch menu, which offers a discount on hot pot.

On Friday around 8 o'clock, four people arrived at the restaurant. The staff seemed to be Chinese, and about half of the customers were also Chinese. There were two types of tables, one for 2 people and another slightly larger one for 4 people, and we were seated at the larger table. We placed our orders using a tablet, which was initially in Chinese but we changed it to Japanese. Three of us liked spicy food, so we ordered a spicy and medicinal hot pot. Unlike Japanese hot pot, you mix your own sauce and dip the food in it, which allows for a variety of flavors and keeps it interesting. We really enjoyed it because we love spicy food! Although I didn't try the medicinal hot pot, those who don't like spicy food praised it as delicious. The dessert was also delicious, although we weren't sure what was in it.

I searched for a place where I could eat something spicy while drinking beer, and I came across this place. I realized that I had never tried hot pot before. It was so spicy!! It was hard to enjoy the beer because of the spiciness (lol). However, they also serve medicinal cuisine, so I thought that if I order wisely, I might still have a good time.

The store is located about a 2-minute walk from Takadanobaba Station and has a spacious and clean interior, which left a very good impression. I ordered the hot pot, and although I'm not a fan of extremely spicy food, I do enjoy some level of spiciness. The spiciness was just right for me and the flavors were delicious. It was nice to be able to taste two different soups at once. I ended up sweating a lot, but it made me feel refreshed. I would definitely visit again if I have the chance.

I have been to this restaurant so many times that I can't remember the exact number. I always order the special spicy soup! I change the soup in the middle each time. This time, I chose a soup with lots of mushrooms! It was light and provided a refreshing break between the spiciness. It paired perfectly with winter melon and yam!

I don't know how many times I've been here! I tend to stick to the same vegetables and meat, but I change up the central soup and dipping sauce I make myself a little each time, so I can enjoy it without getting tired of it. This time I chose chicken soup. It's my favorite besides the spicy one!

It's a Chinese hot pot chain restaurant. The interior decoration is very Chinese, and all the staff are Chinese, with many Chinese customers as well. You can choose from three types of soup: spicy, mild, and herbal, with the spicy option being moderately hot. The soup is delicious and spicy. You can mix your own sauce with the help of a friendly guide. There is a wide variety of ingredients including meat, seafood, vegetables, and mushrooms, making it impossible to try everything in one visit. It's very delicious and enjoyable.

Since the closure of Xiao Long Kan in Shinjuku, I have been searching for a new hot pot restaurant. I found this place, which is also a Japanese branch of a large Chinese chain. The taste is spicier than Hai Di Lao, and it resembles the authentic Sichuan flavor rather than traditional Chinese. They offer a buffet with crayfish and other dishes, and the atmosphere inside is quite vibrant. Overall, I think it's a genuine Chinese dining experience.

A space that feels like China without any Japanese people. I chose the course menu but the seafood dishes smell too strong and it's uncomfortable.

There is a place in the restaurant where you can make your own sauce with your preferred taste. The hot pot and dessert shaved ice have a variety of colorful and fun ingredients. I would love to come back in winter to enjoy a lively meal with friends.

The place has a Chinese vibe but with a stylish touch which is very nice! The staff is friendly, and it's great to have free side dishes to eat! They also have unique ingredients that are typical of China, which is great!

I went to a hot pot restaurant after a long time and wanted to try something different, so I decided to challenge myself with duck blood this time. The soup was fragrant and delicious. By the time I left the restaurant, my whole body smelled like soup. I had to put my bag under the table because the smell got on it.
