One of the favorite places my friends and I go to eat whenever we're in Columbus. The food is good quality, and the social experience is fun! You have to have a little knowledge about how hotpot works or be willing to ask a lot of questions, but we've always had good experiences with Mr Pot
Food was delish and it was a lot of fun! I will definitely be back.
Mr.Pot is one of our go to's on a cold fall or winter evening. The buffet is a great option, allowing you to choose any protein, vegetables and sides you want. Everything is always very fresh and the staff is very friendly and ready to help with any questions you may have. Don't over order initially, as they will charge by the pound for any excessive items you have ordered but did not cook or eat. A good waybto prevent wasted food. I recommend trying a few items at a time as they do come back and let you keep ordering throughout the meal. There is a 2hr limit-but I've only seen that strictly enforced if there is a wait. I recommend the beef broth for the hot pot, it has a lot of flavor but it is not overpowering and goes well with most veggies and meats. And you have to try the fried pork!
Overall -gets a five star based on quality/taste of food and fun presentation of the food.
The good...
This is fun. Get one or two types of broth. The stove at your table continuously boils the broth. Pick out your raw meats and vegetables. Cook everything on your own in the broth. I don't normally go to what I would consider a soup only dinner but how fun is that to at least try this once.
The food tastes great. The broths I had were very good. Food was fresh
The not so good...
All you can eat option is almost $30 per person so if you do this (I have) then go hungry and go with two free hours. The individual plates are about $15 each.
Some of the sauces are unusual but you could look at it as there is a sauce for every person.
They have a spicy broth there, don't get it unless you have a high tolerance to spicy food.
The atmosphere is kind of blah.
Love this place! We've been coming regularly for almost 2 years now. My husband loves all the options (especially seafood) and my daughter and I live for the handmade pork balls. We've tried all the broth flavors, our favorites are curry and mushroom. Try it, you won't be disappointed!!
I ordered for the very 1st time via UberEat. The stir fry was disappointing (overpriced & not flavorful enough); however the Spicy Hot pot is awesome!!! I will definitely order the hot pot again!!! (For delivery order, please staple the brown paper bags like other restaurants so we feel safer). Thanks.
It's now called Chillispot and it's definitely worth checking. The staff is great and the food is fantastic! Some of the best Asian food I've had in Columbus. Highly recommend the sauteed ribs with Szechuan peppers if they still have it, one of my new favorite dishes!
