Papa Zhang’s BBQ & Hot Pot

Judy S 3 months ago

This place is great. One of the best AYCE hot pot in the IE, especially for the price. Lunch specials are before 2 pm during the week you get the best bang for your buck. It's a clean and all the veggies and condiments are fresh. The protein is great they have pork, beef, lamb, fish, shrimp and squid. They also have a few sides such as crispy chicken and rice. To top it off free ice cream for dessert, can't beat that. 1000% recommend.

Date: March 15, 2026 I wanted to try 85°C Bakery for the first time for my Birthday this year and decided we should try this place as well for the first time. I've been craving hotpot and BBQ for a while now. So we was like what a coincidence that they have a place to try as well near by. The server was attentive and friendly. He gave us all the items that we ordered and refilled our drinks constantly while picking up all the dirty dishes. I really appreciate him giving us our own area without any interruption. But it was quite a distance away from all the foods. Which I really did not enjoy getting up and walking to the center of the restaurant to get the meats and cold foods for the hot pot. I really enjoyed the refreshing light raspberry tea drink that tastes like it was freshly brew in house. The ingredients looked fresh and appetizing but we got food poisoning while sitting there eating. I got up to used the restroom twice(both time consists of diarrhea). The second time I used the restroom I ended up throwing up while having bad diarrhea at the same time. It was the worst experience ever while it was on my birthday that day. 😭 I was lucky I did not used the restroom on myself

I've been here with different groups of friends, and every time everyone is very happy with their meal! Everything is fresh, they have a great cold bar with fresh veggies and seafood, and a very solid sauce bar. The service is usually pretty snappy. Their Chinese Herbal soup base has great depth and just the right amount of spice. Absolutely recommend for a great hot pot experience!

Monday dinner, got here at 7pm and was seated right away. Unlike last time it was over an hour wait for a table. Food is always fresh and you can fully customize your pot at your table. Various meats, seafood and veggies available through the buffet. There are special meat cuts that they bring to table by order. But from the Select menu, you serve yourself the meats from the bar. New price options are Select at $19.95 and Ultimate at $45.95. Great deals all day!.

My family is so happy to have found this restaurant. We now don't have to drive to Los Angeles or Orange county when we crave for hot pot. We love how clean and inviting the restaurant is. The ambiance is great with good music. There are different varieties of seafood, noodles and very clean fresh vegetables. As for soup choices, there are plenty to choose from. The server will top of your broth once you run low. We tried the mushroom, tom yam, and gold soup bases. We ordered beef and lamb. They were all very good quality meat. I was especially pleased with the sauce bar where you can choose from several different ingredients to make your own custom sauce or follow some of the recipes they give. All in all, my family love this restaurant and definitely will come back.
