Reviews of Haidilao Hot Pot Flushing
1- Mars
The place was very big and the environment was very friendly. Even though the food didn't really stick out as much, it was still quite amazing.
The service- on the other hand - was the real cheery on top. The bathrooms were far more clean than any other hotpot place I've been to. The waiters were super friendly and always did their best to make sure we had the best time.
There were very unique shows and events such as the dancing noodles and the mask changing dancer.
Overall, it was a lovely experience and I'll definitely come again! <3
Eric Finkelstein
They've thought through the full experience so well, I was very pleased and impressed. And the hot pot was all delicious (2 broths used: tomato, classic spicy mala). Also I had the kiwi slush tea which I loved.
- Online reservations and a waiting list that shows you the number of tables waiting.
- Waiting area with teas, waters, coffees, mints, games, decorations, and seating areas.
- Waiter was very helpful and detailed. And attentive, giving us extra bowls for soup from the broth, routinely refilling our waters, checking if we needed more broth, swapping in clean plates, removing used bows, and even making us sauces (in additions to the ones we made ourselves). I also loved he offered to take a photo of our group without us asking, and that he pointed out when a fun dancing noodle presentation was about to happen at a nearby table.
- Sleek tablet ordering system.
- Offered bibs, plastic bags for face masks, and hair ties.
- Table utilized vertical space with shelves.
- Bathroom is very clean will full suite of items, and sinks at multiple heights.
- Check delivered with moist towelettes, floss picks, mints.

The staff were super friendly and I was told they have express pass for pregnant women. The overall experience was amazing, our server explained everything to us in detail and served fruits for us when we just arrived at the table. She also helped us with sauce and the soup. We had an amazing dining experience here, the food was fresh and delicious. Especially the soft serve ice cream was epic! I’ve always want to try the oat milk mochi, it was delicious! Highly recommend this place and it’s good for family, friends and couples! It’s always full house, so would recommend for advance reservation before arrival.

Came here to celebrate my birthday tonight and had such an amazing time! I’ve been to the location in queens so many times and it is just as I remember from China! The quality of food is top notch and what really sets them apart from any other hotpot place is their impeccable service! Our server, Ada, was amazing! She took such good care of us and made sure we always had what we needed and that our glasses were full! I just wish I lived closer so I could come every week! I will definitely be back again and again! Thank you!
Mandoo Mul
Well, I’m proud to say I’m a huge fan of Haidilao since the grand opening of the first Haidilao in South Korea. Almost having 80 visits including here in New York, it’s one of my favorite food / restaurant of all.
Service was fantastic. Everything in the menu was almost as same as how I ordered in Seoul. Great dishes, fresh ingredients and, not to mention, fair price.
Highly recommend!!!
Sree Sreenivasan
We loved this place. Highly recommended online, so we chose it for a special trip to Flushing. And now it’s highly recommended by me! “Really yummy,” said one of my teens. “Get the spicy broth,” said the other. “Very clean, including the bathroom,” said my wife. Friendly staff, supplemented by robot-delivery of food to the tables during busy times.
Really fun experience, even if you’ve never hotpotted before. Comes with free ice cream cones. And, I have to say, the most welcoming waiting area of any restaurant anywhere in the world. With comfortable seats and snacks!!! Amazing. We will be back!
Salinda Y
I was so happy to celebrate my birthday here. To make it even more special, the staff even decorated the table for me. Super thankful. Even got to try the king crab which was big and delicious. Staff was attentive and also gave us our privacy.
Nadia
Amazing restaurant! Their food is delicious. The ambiance is great and the service is perfect. Very friendly staff and very professional. Especially the waitress Ada. She made our time at the restaurant special and unforgettable. She helped us with the sauce mixing and gave us a free ice cream on dessert. Don’t miss their noodle show and face changing performance! I highly recommend this place!
Katy Phan
This is my second time at Haidilao. The first time was so so, maybe I was expecting so much from all reviews, but this time I am satisfied. Quality and service were much better than. I guess the restaurant was so busy last time. This time, Long was our server. He took a good care of us. Long heard us complaining each other how we messed up the dipping sauce, then he helped us to remake one. I personally don’t like server to check on us often (I am weird), but the amount of time he checked on us was perfect. Anyway, I had a great experience for this visit. Will definitely come back.
Angel Trata
Great service and amazing flavors.
Tomato and mushroom soup bases are great for vegans. The staff is extremely helpful in explaining how hot pots work, they understood the needs of a vegetarian/ vegan.
Sauce bar is beautiful with all you can eat fruits and make your own sauce.
They also sell soup mixes to take home to make your own hotpot at home.
I love the soft serves at the end (complimentary)
The restrooms are nice and clean and very tech friendly with heated toilet seats and free toothbrush and combs
Susan Lenny
This was our first time at Haidilao and our experience was amazing!! The beef was EXCELLENT quality and so were the other protein and seafood options! Everything was so fresh and delicious. I love the variety of hot pot soup bases you can choose from and I especially love that you can get 4 different soup bases and get to try them all at once! We got the spicy, green pepper, pork bone, and Tom yum! All were delicious! You can also mix your own sauce and there's a variety of sides you can choose from too.
What really makes this place stands out is the size of the restaurant, the amazing staff, and the cleanliness!! The bathrooms were large and clean and the restaurant was spacious and had their own cute waiting area. Our server was Ada and she was awesome. Our broth was always topped off and empty plates cleared away very quickly. The food came out really fast too. Ada also did a great job explaining how to order since this was our first time dining there. The attentiveness of the staff really made the experience stand out. A must try if you're in Flushing and want hot pot!
Carlos Figari
Best hot pot experience. Gold standard. Andrew was fantastic. Explained everything. The menu has classics and some niche items, but the quality and presentation is fantastic. Highly recommended hotpot experience in Flushing.
The Kobe was great. Vegetables were fresh. But the service and attention to detail is what makes the meal.
Christine Choy
I grabbed lunch today with my mom at this place and the service was amazing! They offer you an apron, a hair tie and a zip lock bag for your mask. The food came super quick and our waitress, Ada, was super attentive and helpful! She was so sweet and constantly checked on us. Love the service here and love the food. 10/10! :)
Troy Eckhart
Consistent great quality of food , clean, great staff. I loved the variety mu girl and I had for out meal with friends. Was great to go there because they have a chain store all over world at select cities. Last one I was at was in Vietnam.
Cheveen
Compared to the more original chains in Beijing, China, the service was definitely consistent with the chain name but the flavor was not. Service alone I would give the restaurant 5 stars but what are we here for? —— Hotpot. Sure, there are games in the waiting area, appetizer options at sauce stations and even toothbrushes in bathrooms but there was nothing special about the food. We tried a number of different meat/seafood options from the menu but it just tasted like mediocre hotpot with lackluster soup base. Price tag not justified, would not return.
Note: some sauce bar items did not have English, had to translate for my party. Menu does have drop down option for English on top right corner.
Silver Light Fox
This place I google best hotpot in flushing, so I naturally had high expectations, but they went above and beyond, I went with myself and 2 other people, the wait was about a hour but that's to be expected on a Saturday night, the meat was all very high quality, the selection was excellent, and I ordered the a5 wagyu it was worth every penny. the broth for the hotpot was very flavorful and rich. the staff were very attentive and helpful with the menu. sauce bar was excellent and the bathrooms were amazingly clean-they even had free amenities like toothbrush/toothpaste, mints and even razors and free cologne, 100% would recommend if your looking for the best hotpot in flushing.
kelly wang
My favorite hotpot place, so many options for hotpot in flushing but this place is the best. The atmosphere is amazing when you walk in there’s games in the waiting area which is very thoughtful.
The tomato broth is delicious it is a must get when you come. Our server Maggie was very friendly she went above and beyond with her service. Got us everything we needed. I would say the service is top notch. Food is very fresh and delicious.
Chino Villanueva (MrDaisies)
One of the best hotpot places in Flushing! Haidilao elevates your normal hotpot experience to extraordinary heights.
Their menu options is wide and their sauce bar is extensive. They also have appetizers on the sauce bar to prepare your appetite for what’s to come. Their soup base is flavorful and comforting. The assortment of vegetables makes you fulfill your daily dose of vitamins. The protein selection ranges from meat, seafood and vegetarian. Truly a place for everybody.
Ellen M
Haidilao has always been consistently delicious, service is very good. My toddler absolutely loves this place since they always have cool little toys to play with or snacks. Our waiter Long was extremely sweet, he not only helped me discover the kids menu but he even brought him some extra snacks & little toy planes & cotton candy. Thank you so much Long!
Giselle Reynoso
This was our first time trying hot pot, and it was an amazing experience! This place is very nice, clean, and the staff goes above and beyond to make your visit comfortable and easy. This is a great place to go on a date, bring your family or hang out with friends.
We were served by Andrew, who was very informative, kind and patient with all our questions. He was super attentive and also hilarious!! He made our experience really easy and made us feel welcome. Not to mention, the food was delicious!
The bathrooms were the nicest I’ve ever been to in a New York restaurant. The toilets were equipped with bidets and had heated seats!
Will definitely come back again! 10/10 will definitely recommend to everyone I know. Andrew, thanks so much for making our experience awesome!!

This place was amazing, the food was really good. Unlike most hot pot, this is an a la carte so be mindful of the price. It gets packed so recommend to place reservations ahead of time. They have a waiting area with snacks and tea. They also have an unlimited side and sauce bar that has recipes for sauce recommendations. Each table is equipped with additional chopsticks, hair ties, and wet wipes. The bathroom was the coolest part, they had high tech toilets like in East Asia and had products like eye drops, tampons, pads, mouthwash, toothbrush, and toothpaste. They end you off with a complimentary ice cream.
We paid $192 with tips for 4 people.

So this is my 3rd time at Haidilao Hot Pot Flushing and it was an amazing experience like last 2 times. While we were waiting for the table we had some snacks from the snacks and tea bar. Their bathroom was very clean and had everything I needed. They kept their standards and customer service to a 100%. We were a group of 9 and we got a private room. This time we got Long and his service was outstanding. He was keep coming and asking if we were ok or if we need anything else and keep filling our watermelon soju glasses. This place never disappoints and it will always be top of my list.
Lydia YuFei Jiang
Best hotpot experience of my life. I celebrated my birthday here and Haidilao truly went above and beyond to make my day special with cute decorations, candles, cupcakes, and even a present (a toy car)! The staff was attentive and nice and the food was 10/10. Strongly recommend
Katie Bodtcher
Long was such a good waiter! He followed up quickly, gave great suggestions and made us soups and sauces on the spot! He was kind and very friendly to us even though we hadn’t done it before. He was also very attentive! 10/10 would recommend the mushroom base. Loved the surprise at the end!
Au Ri
We had a fantastic time at Haidilao. Despite the Friday night crush, we were seated fairly quickly with our reservation. I highly recommend the tomato broth base. I usually love anything spicy, but the tomato base was far and away the star.
We also really enjoyed the lamb shoulder, fatty beef, the mushroom combo, and tofu skin. Then, we washed it all down with a pitcher of beer and some complimentary soft-serve. The small details really make the experience great.
Malachy Quinn
Haidilao was a great experience! Ada was a great server, and was very professional handling multiple tables and ours as well!
Great broth sections and although I don't prefer fish, the Haidilao fish is a must!
Approx $60 per person.
Davic Le
The best hot pot in the nyc!
I’ve been to so many places and this is by far the best hot pot experience I’ve had so far. Food quality was on point but beyond that was the service. The host was personable and seated us quickly even though it was a Sunday night. Our waitstaff Amy and Ada were great, always attentive, charming and helpful. I was honestly being an annoying guest and they never made me that way. Great experience overall; will def be visiting again.
Vivian Uang
A pleasant hot pot place in Flushing. The staff are very friendly and tentative. We had the bone broth and the Tom yum soup bases and they were both delicious, I’d drank them all if I wasn’t so full at the end. Each booth has high back seating so you are not hearing other customers’ conversation and therefore you can actually have a conversation with your friends. (Most Chinese restaurants have bad acoustic that it’s either echoing every noise or you have to shout across the table to talk). The price is higher than most other hot pot place, but I think it’s worth it because the ingredients are fresh, the service is great, and the overall experience is much more pleasant. We read about the “noodle dance” after we left the place, so we’ll have to go back and see what’s that all about!
Justin CC
The tomato based broth was the best. Besides the usual dishes you will find in a hot pot restaurant, they also offer some complimentary delicious Sichuan delicacies for appetizers which is an A+!. Will definitely come back!

I visited on a Friday evening to introduce our friends to Hot Pot for a dual birthday / Chinese New Year dinner. I had read the reviews and knew there might be a queue to get in but you can add yourself to the digital queue and go away and you'll get a text when your table is ready. We arrived at 4.30pm and had our text at 4.52pm so it was not very long at all (but appreciate that this was before the main rush when I strongly suggest booking in advance). If you decide to wait there, there's sweets, snacks and dispensers of orange water provided. There's even a nail bar!
My server was Amy and she explained all my dietary concerns and her overall service was amazing with her recommendations and her amazing personality.
This is the first Hot Pot where I've had it split up to 4 sections which suited us as we had a vegetarian, non-spicy and spicy eaters. There's a massive range as well as good value found in the Vegetable Platter and Mushroom Platter. There's also one of the biggest dipping sauce stations I've seen. Orders are placed using tablets at your table and you can add extra rounds (which you will) and drinks. There's even a pasta maker! Aprons are provided and in fact, Haidilao Hot Pot, if you're reading this - please tell me where you get your hair ties from! The cloth is both a good tightness but doesn't tug.
Unfortunately, the only thing I'd say is that as the restaurant is downstairs I don't think it's wheelchair accessible. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't see a lift.
Hien Tran
Very nice place for hot pot.
Little bit hard to find the parking.
Very nice waiting room, friendly staff.
They provided tie for your hair, apron if u need it, ziploc for your mask, also Dior perfume, toothpaste & toothbrush, wet and dry napkins in ladyroom.
Free snacks and games in the waiting room.
Price is $180 for 2 adults and 1 kid before tip and tax.
Andi Muskaj
This is hands down my favorite hotpot restaurant. Everything from the setup process, to the sauce bar, to the ice cream at the end. Plus their staff, like Amy, are super friendly and very helpful. They even have a karaoke waiting room. This place is a gem!
Rasheeda Eskak
Amazing! Is all I can just say about it. The staff is super welcoming, the restaurant is gorgeous, spacious and tastefully decorated and most of all, so clean!! Even though it’s huge, the waiting room is still always packed full of people, a testament to how amazing this place is. There are games and arcade machines to let time pass as you wait! Now on to the food, you order via an iPad assigned to your table, so minimal interactions with staff but they’re always happy to help just in case and they’re on standby! The food is fresh fresh fresh, and gorgeous! Portions are hefty, and the soup bases are amazing! The two times I went, we had mushroom, spicy beef tallow, and green onion jalapeño! The food arrives in a timely manner, and the presentation is incredible, colorful, and not a single spoiled ingredient! Also at the end, free ice cream!!!! Oh and one last thing, their bathrooms are equipped to the teeth with things you may need like toothpaste and mouthwash and even a hairdryer (Dyson!!) and many other toiletries, it’s insane. Also the toilet seats are heated and come with bidets, which is just incredible. Do come to Haidilao, it’ll become a staple favorite in your life, guarantee it!

Five Stars!! There were multiple waitresses that took care of our table each one as friendly as the next. I went with my friends who are Asians and I felt very much welcomed. I don’t eat meat however I still wanted to experience eating hotpot. There are so many meatless options and they also inquired about food allergies before serving your food. The staff made sure that we were having a great dining experience. I 100% recommend this place. It was also very clean. Food was awesome and the sauces ranged from mild to spicy 😋.They also give commentary ice-cream that I think is made in house. Overall great experience.
Aurora Li
Very good food and awesome service here! I really really appreciate our server, Yuna Song, who is beautiful and patient. She provided awesome service make this hotpot experience became even more meaningful. I can tell how she passionate about her job and her attention to every single details on the table, refill drink, food recommendations, hair tie, etc. and make me feel like home and welcome. Thank you for the great experience and will definitely come again!!!!!!!!!!! Love tomato broth forever
Sam
One of the best ala carte hotpot in NYC. The place was clean and very organized. Service is great as always as this is what they are famous for. Broth is good which makes all the food cooked in the pot good. Bathroom was clean and filled with personal hygiene supplies. Definitely a pricey place to go but worth it once in a while.
Things I didn’t like:
The geoduck wasn’t fresh and had some faulty smell to it but it was manageable.
The line was very long but there weren’t enough seats at the waiting room for more than half the people.
Chelsea Galinos
Came here after seeing the numerous glowing reviews and it did not disappoint. The food, restaurant and service was fantastic. Our waiter Andrew was very insightful on what to order along with making some sauces to go with our meal. Definitely recommend!
Maxime Gau
First hotpot experience in a restaurant, I loved it! Everything is well organized. The mushroom and tomato broth were delicious. Also appreciated the sea salt mints at the end.
Elika Lie
Excellent hotpot restaurant with superb service & amenities. Our server Andrew attentively went above & beyond, he will be our barometer for the service at Haidilao.
The tomato broth was delicious & like Andrew said it’s the most popular broth at Haidilao. Dancing noodle was a must, the fresh hand pulled (danced) noodle was so good with tomato broth.
I definitely will bring my family here, because it’s not only an excellent hotpot restaurant, but also the dining experience itself is worth it.
Marisa Li
Best hotpot place!! Incredible service and they really pay attention to detail. The dancing noodles are fun too. This is a really great birthday place. They’re happy to plate your cake and sing and decorate for you. Really such a pleasure. Make sure to make a reservation - there’s usually a really long wait.
Wen Jin Guo
brought my dad and family here for a belated father's day dinner (later review, i kno lol) and everything was well thought off from the moment we stepped in. they offer free snacks and games in the waiting area. we didn't really partake in them as i've already made a reservations.
we were quickly seated and provided with a tablet to order from. our server showed up and asked if we would like to get the kid's meals first (FREE, btw). we got one for the kids to check out but mostly have them save room for the hot pot. the menu selections were big and diverse and ordering was done via a tablet. however, the tablet had issues (didn't pair with the table) and it wiped out our entire order several times when we tried to submit it. finally, the server advised to order in batches just to be safe. for the broth, we got tomato, pork bone, and mild spicy broth.
DIY sauce station is located towards the back and they provided some recipes for unique dipping sauces, as well as some apps, fruits, and desserts.
highlights:
-tomato broth: tangy and lots of umami, goes well with many ingredients. such a hit with the kids and the rest of the fam.
-signature shrimp paste
-kobe beef
-assorted seafood combo
i'd say the food was pretty standard and ok value. the restaurant is spacious, clean and comfortable. the bathroom even offered perfume/cologne, hair ties, toothpaste/brush, floss, feminine products etc. it's ridiculously well thought out and i've never experienced anything quite like it. and finally, the service was IMPECCABLE. everyone had a smile on their face and genuinely seemed like they wanna be there lol. haidilao has a reputation and i can see why they have such a loyal following. will return to try out the infamous hand-pulled noodle (we were too full and the server offered to cancel it for us. another great touch!)
Nan Wang
As a customer who had Haidilao since almost 30 years ago (back in China), this is always my best hotpot place. Service and food quality are good as usual. Lovely kid’s meal and my girl enjoyed it very much.
Bryce Montgomery
Fantastic evening here! Kate helped explain everything we needed to know, and even helped make us sauces after we ordered. Andrew was an extremely attentive waiter, quick to help answer questions and make sure we were doing alright. If you want to try hotpot - don't hesitate, Haidilao does it absolutely perfectly
Vinson Tang
First time here and I really liked it. The restaurant was really modern and clean, with ample seating, and service was really great. The Waitlist feature was really easy to use and convenient, and the line moved quickly. We tried 4 soup bases, but my favorite is always tomato 🍅. Got the wagyu beef and all the other standard items, and all were high quality and delicious. The watermelon soju was easy to drink and really good! I really liked their ice cream and how they bring it to you. Get the mango vanilla mix, as it reminded me of a dole whip. Servings weren't huge and prices were on the high end, but will definitely come back!
Yi G
Delicious as always. One of my favorite hotpot in China! They are famous for the good service. Have been here for several times, we have to say our favorite staff is Andrew. He makes good dip dishes, and provides outstanding services which are very different from the other of his colleagues. If you go there, ask for Andrew’s table would be a great choice.
Mary Smith
Tasty food and great service here. I wrote this five star review especially for Andrew, who gave us complete hospitality service, making us feel at home. He provided soup condiments, took photos, made special dip for shrimp slip, toothpick when finished, etc. Those are really nice! Thanks, Andrew.
Sabrina Poon
美女 Ada and 猛男 Max were very friendly and made my birthday experience super lovely. They gave me a cheesecake for celebration, extra chocolate drizzled with love and tears. They definitely deserve a raise for such hard work!! Will definitely come back for them!!
Vanessa S.
Great experience at Haidilao Hotpot!
Our friends kept talking about this place and how great it is and now we’ve finally checked it out.
I love hot pot and Haidilao delivered! It’s def more on the fancier side, not as simple as other places I’ve tried before. Awesome selection of meat, seafood and fish.
Not a lot of noodle items on the menu.
The sauce bar is amazing: they even have recipe ideas for popular sauces so one can easily follow the steps and can be sure it’s delicious.
Also very convenient that you order via iPad. Soft serve as dessert was awesome!
Highly recommended-looking forward to go back again.
Vincent Horng
Drove from Pennsylvania to New York to experience Hi Do Lao. Did. Not. Disappoint. We ordered 4 broths and ordered a wide selection of meat and veggies. Hi Do Lap is a bit pricey but worth it once in awhile. Each plate of meat is about 15 to 20 dollars. The service is definitely worth noting. There is also a sauce bar and fruit bar for your use. Recommend giving it a try even traveling to NY just to try it even for once
Isaiah L
This was overall a good experience. The service, as mentioned by many other reviews, was superb; I never ran out of water and the staff were all super friendly. The food quality was great as well. Although you might find yourself spending more than you would at other places, the quality, cleanness, and variety definitely makes up for it. (Also the ice cream is free and super delicious)
Chichiger Shyy
First time here and I really enjoyed it!! The food is fresh and high quality and the restaurant is huge. I like how there’s a lot of space and each table has a big booth. Our server Andrew was really nice and always checked in often. Def would come back!
Ming Lei (popoway)
Long is one the best servers so far I’ve had here! We came here for my birthday and they literally had a celebration board and cake. Also the soup base is very good, highly recommend the dum yum one which has a balanced sour and spicy. He treated us very nicely and professionally. Bonus point is the cat shaped robot that serves food 💯
Brent Ferguson
Our hostess Ada made sure my family had some entertainment while we waited and informed us when our seating was available. Our server Amy was a pleasure as well she ensured that my girls had plenty to eat and knew where the amenities were. Additionally she helped us pack our food and gave us advise on what items we should order
Ian J.
Great service and clean unlike many other Chinese restaurants especially in NYC. There are more soup flavors at this location compared to other locations we’ve been like the green pepper. This is now our favorite soup base. This location also offers free kids meal. Everything else is as you expect from a high end hot pot place. Be prepared to spend $$$
Jenny
We love this place, we’re from Florida. Everytime we come to New York, we always come here. This is our favorite place to go to. Our waitress Karina was super attentive and super helpful. We ask for her all the time , she makes our visit great every time !!!!!
Cat Eaton
What an incredible experience. Such delicious food. Server David was very helpful. There are snacks in the lobby for before your meal and Dior perfume in the bathroom
Trang T.
Top tier-- one of the best hot pot experiences ever. Each Haidilao location offers its own style and services, but they are all consistent in taste and superior service across the board.
We highly suggest to check-in online to get on the wait list. There are several places to explore in the area while waiting. There is also a cute waiting area in the restaurant as well that serves complimentary snacks and tea.
At the restaurant, they also offer complimentary aprons and hair ties. The restrooms are fully serviced as well.
Onto the food--
The broths have deep flavors that complimented all of our dishes. The seasoned oils on top had AMAZING aromas. For the soup bases, we got the tomato, green pepper, spicy, and beef bone. The tomato and green pepper bases were our favorites.
All of the dishes were fresh and well portioned. They are on the pricier side for hotpot but that's the price of quality. The shrimp paste, dancing noodle, fried tofu skin, variety fish balls, and lotus were some of our favorites.
The side dishes near the sauce bar were also appetizing as well. The desserts were a great refreshment at the end and not too heavy to eat after a large meal.
We tried saying some of the secret Haidilao phrases to get free items (e.g. soup base, wand, etc.) but they were out for the day. Come early if you want a better chance of having them in stock!
Service was impeccable and the staff were almost always one step ahead.

Had an amazing experience here. The food and service is incredible! Our server Long went above and beyond to make our friend’s birthday dinner extra special!

This place is awesome - I'd say it's the best hot pot I've had in the city. The food is great, and the overall experience is fantastic. You'll probably end up spending a decent amount, but it's entirely worth it.
Been here twice now, and most recently had a server named Andrew who provided the best service I've experienced in a long time. I was pretty much blown away. The place operates like a 5-star hotel.
I like that you can get four different soup bases and everyone shares. I'm a big fan of the tomato soup base, but the others I've had have all been good as well. The meats are good quality, and you can help yourself to endless sauces and side snacks. The free ice cream at the end is a very nice touch.
I'd highly recommend this place!

We love this place! Ada was our server and she is fantastic! She went above and beyond, and knew exactly what to bring without even needing to ask. I hope she gets a raise for all her hard work!
David Lee
One of the better hot pot restaurants in NY. Very clean and lots of items to choose from. I like how you can get 4 different kind of soups. Service is top notch. On the pricier side but worth a try.
Ahla Khan
The food was amazing as well as the service. My server, Ada, was extremely attentive and helpful with bringing food to the table and packing the leftovers it into to-go containers. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and highly recommend anyone to come here.
Jenna Li
I had such a wonderful night here, shout-out to the crew Ada and David.C,they are AWESOME! The food are great and the service are great 👍 This restaurant has everything you need. if you don’t know where to go for hotpot, come here, you won’t regret! Once again shout out to Ada and David! Love you guys!!!!
Hui Shan Yin
They're known for their really great service which didn't disappoint. They have a waiting room with seats, games, and a beverage bar. Their bathroom is stocked with all the right necessities (including eye drops and toothbrushes), and they offer you a plastic baggie for your mask, an apron, and a hair tie for the ladies.
The broth and the food came pretty quickly which was nice because we were a hungry group of 6. We ordered a bunch of their meats including the kobe slices, the fatty beef, lamb shoulder, and their most expensive A5 wagyu. I'd say aside from the kobe and wagyu, the rest were standard quality - nothing mind-blowing.
Also ordered their cantaloupe juice which was fresh and their drinks (non-alcoholic) which were standard.
Total came out to about $80pp (you'll be very full at this price point).
J Lou
First time here - amazing food with exceptional service. Our server Long (阿龙) is great, and is patient in explaining the different soup bases & dishes to us. Would definitely come back, and highly recommend!
Howard Chow
Excellent food and service. The sauce bar is unique compared to other place and well stocked. They have their own special Sha Cha (Chinese BBQ sauce) as well as desserts for free. Though it’s a la carte and not all you can eat, the final spend was pretty much around the same as an AYCE price
Becky Zeng
Amazing service here. The server, Andrew and the server in training, Yan, was very attentive and checking in with us regularly. The were very patient with our question and requests and even gave us hair ties to tie up our hair.
Jami Antona
Top-notch service, especially from our waiter Adrian! My family celebrated my sister’s birthday here, and they had this amazing birthday spread as a surprise when we first came in. Perfect photo op, they really go above and beyond here. And of course, the food was amazing and high quality! As someone obsessed with hot pot, I can’t wait to go here again.
Mark Dimont
The reviews are to be trusted. Perfect modern hot pot place that is efficient, friendly, and delicious. It's all the extras that make it great along with the fresh and tasty food. Really can't go wrong here.
Minh Yen Nguyen
We were traveling from ATL & stopped by this amazing Gem & had the best , BEST, service ever. But what makes it phenomenal was our Waiter Andrew. He’s super attentive from explaining how the hot pot works, placement of dishes for a picturesque view, & accomodated is very well. If we were to come back, we will come back for the food & our waiter Andrew!
Tam Tran
So on top of the fantastic food was our incredible waiter Andrew. He was SO SO kind and make the experience amazing. Hands down the best food experience and service EVER. He went above and beyond expectations and was consistently delightful. Thanks for everything Andrew and good lord the food was FIRE 🔥 …
Yu Ting Zhu
Haven't been here since the pandemic, food is good as usual, but the price increases a lot. We spent almost 200 bucks for two and barely order meat. Inflation is crazy.
Brittni Weiss
Love everything about this place. The staff is friendly, the food is fresh, and the ambience is great. They stand apart from the other hot pot places in the area. Highly recommend!
CHRISTOPHER MACFARLANE
I have to give this place and our server Ada five stars. The food was amazing, though a bit intimidating.
You walk up a flight stairs in pretty traditional Chinese fashion. Clearly the place is prepared for long wait times with seating and snacks. We planned ahead and made reservations. We were immediately greeted by Ada and show around the sauce table. I know sauce table - a bit intimidating.
Ada walked us through the menu making suggestions and recommendation. Appetizer of crispy pork that was OMG. Then the full spread. Ada asked do we want aprons. Thinking, ‘well if you are asking, Ee should probably get them. Needed for sure.
My son and I loved the food, experience and server. Don’t miss this place in Flushing.
Victoria Zhu
Great food great service, what more can you ask for! Our server Andrew was very attentive and caring! This place exceeded my expectations 😊 Thank you to Andrew and Haidilao for making this an amazing experience!
Meredith
First time here and my husband and we had such a good experience. Our server, Alex, provided excellent service, was attentive and very helpful. The quality of the meats, sides and snacks at the sauce bar was really nice and had good variety. Thanks for a great experience Alex! Won’t be the last time we come back
Tsering Y
Possibly the best customer service ever!!!! Our servers Andrew and Loung were both extremely accommodating considering I’m vegetarian. Andrew made this cucumber barrier so that the meat broth doesn’t go into my veggie broth which I thought was so sweet. We’ve been here before but today, the experience was just above and beyond😊 …
Pauline Leong
Absolutely delicious and fun hot pot experience! They have a complimentary salad and dressings bar with fruit, peanuts, seaweed salad, candies and other yummy appetizers! The menu is huge with different broths and lots of vegetables, starches and meats to make the hot pot really special. Service was excellent. Our waitress Ada was lovely and so attentive. She made sure to replenish anything we needed. Looking forward to making the trip to Haidilao again and will be bringing my mom who would love it!
Fiona L
Great food as always. Super friendly staff. Our waiter Long 龙 is amazing, he got all kinds of the appetizers for us to start when we were browsing the menu. When we come back from the sauce station, all our dishes seats on the table. He even poured the beer for us to start. Best waiter👍 …
K C
We came here to celebrate my birthday and Haidilao is one of the best hotpot restaurants in NYC period! The staff in particular displayed the best service experience I have ever witnessed. Our server Long, was extremely attentive and accommodating, making sure all of our needs were met.
Justina Eng
Awesome hotpot spot with a sauce & snack bar, they give you aprons & covers for your coats. Our waiter Long was super attentive and made our experience here even better!
Don't forget to order the dancing noodles ~~
Ken H
The food is very fresh and the portion is great! Our server Ada was very friendly and made sure we were taken good care of ! She made us very comfortable while dining here . Will be back again !
Katty Wu
I came here with a large group of friends and we left with great memories! Andrew, our server, was fantastic and incredibly attentive. You could tell he was incredibly experienced and he would make sure we had all our needs met and anticipated our needs before we even had them! The food was fantastic, but gotta say that the great service and clean, spotless environment at the restaurant really kicked the place up many notches. Every component of the restaurant was thought out - from providing hair ties and aprons, to providing floss and bidets in the restroom, to ice cream and fun balloon hats, the restaurant met all of our needs and set a standard for restaurants on the future.
Looking forward to coming back in the future!!
Al L
I been here many time for late dinner and service is always on point. We did had issue with the heating plate and waited a little long for the soup to boil but I understand technical difficulties is out of people control most of time. The food quality is above average but would like to see more option like they have in China. The environment is very good and clean. They also have wire and charging plates for people to use at their table. My favor is the the snack/fruit bars. I would recommend this place to others
De Gao
Nice hotpot. Service is great. Line to get a table is long. They give kids free gifts. Maybe $50 pp or more.
kim m
We’re new to hot pot and have been trying different spots around flushing and Haidilao set the bar high and exceeded our expectations! The establishment itself is very clean and luxe feeling but still cozy. Also love the music they play and the atmosphere gives off good vibes. Our waitress was very attentive and made our first time here a very welcoming and fun experience. Despite it being busy she took the time to explain how to order and gave recommendations. The food itself is delicious!! We ordered only a couple of things and still had a bunch leftover. My personal faves were the fish ball and rice cakes with cheese - so good!! tried three different broths that were all delicious and loved being able to make our own custom sauces. The complementary ice cream at the end was the Cherry on top. Between the two of us we spent $130 so it is a bit pricey but worth it when you want to treat yourself!
Kristen Lee-Haug
Great hot pot base and add on options, service was very friendly and attentive. Have been to several hot pot places in the area and all have been great, but this might be the best one yet. Get the dancing noodles too!
Sam Lee
Absolutely huge bustling restaurant with several dining rooms. Despite being so busy, the restaurant was ran incredibly well. The sauce station was well maintained and all the hot pot ingredients were fresh and well trimmed. Our waiter treated us so well from beginning to end. He checked our coats, kept our drinks topped off, and even went as far as to bring wet naps and eye glass cleaners at the very end. Thank you Andrew!
Sudeep Mandal
10/10 Food was the best, the classic spicy soup base was my favorite, and the New Zealand beef was amazing. The bar was full of great stuff, and our server Andrew was fast and on point, and definitely helpful, he told us how to work the hot pot and how to order. All and all amazing place and the most go-getting staff, would definitely recommend
Nia Lyn
I'll start this review by saying that it is in your best interest to make a reservation! Ig you try to join the waitlist for dinner (especially on a weekend) you will be waiting for over an hour. However, this isn't the worst because there are snacks (including cotton candy!), drinks, and games in the waiting area to tie you over while you wait.
Once you get inside you are greeted with a wonderful atmosphere. It is lively, the music is great, and the space is quite large. The food is a la carte, but the portions are big and the food is fresh.
You can order a split broth with up to 4 options, my boyfriend and I loved the spicy pork bone broth and the tomato broth. Our waitress Maggie was fantastic. She was attentive and kind and even made a custom sauce for us (which went very well with our food). She also brought out a small bowl so we could sample our broth before the meal. I've never been so catered to.
Even the bathrooms are fancy! There are free toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, and an automated mouthwash dispenser.
Overall it was a great evening and I woild absolutely go back.
minji kim
Expensive, but the spicy beef broth makes up for it. Definitely recommend more than 2 people to share as my friend and I weren’t able to finish all the food we ordered. We weren’t able to get the dancing noodle as the guy who makes it was off. Will be back to try it next time!
Linh Tran
We love this place !! Amazing food, amazing staff !! Everything about is amazing !!! My partner have the best birthday ever at here !! And thank to Andrew being so kind and helpful to my friend and I
Ankita Sunilkumar
Our server, Andrew, was the best! The food and atmosphere is great, yes. But what puts this place in the forefront is their customer care and hospitality. So much so that it was refreshing. This is the 2nd place, the other is Masalawala and sons, in NYC where the hospitality is just heartwarming. You can select upto 4 hotpot soup bases. For vegetarians, you have 3 choices of soup base and a water base if you like to diy. This is not all you can eat. But I eat about the same and end up spending more in AYCE, so this worked for me. My company said that the quality of meat was better than others we have tried. They have assorted platters in each group/category. The sauce station is great and has some desert choices too. I think there are chocolates, porridge, jelly, Pocky, plum candy if you want to munch on. You can also get soft serve ice cream for free after your meal and it was good! Need a hair tie, toothpick or apron to help eat? Better yet a toothbrush and toothpaste before you leave? I think the men's restroom even got your shaving needs covered. What more? Don't mind me, but the bathroom was so clean!!! The toilet seats were heated/warm, like my soul that was warm and toasty with the service and my tummy was warm with the delish hotpot. Left this place a happier person, and even shook a leg with the aunties doing movement exercise in the open walkway outside. I am going here again.
linna wang
First time at Haidilao and You need to go!!! It’s the cutest little spot with amazing food. The tomato soup base is amazing! The service we received was so amazing and we really appreciate the helps that mushroom provide. She was really nice and patient, she helped us going through the menu and introduced to us about the different types of soup base. Thanks mushroom!!! we will definitely be back again.
Sandy
Haidilao is amazing. Food and service! The servers are all very nice. The environment is very clean. I come here very often like 3-4 times a week. I want to give a shout-out to Exdeus, Annie, Yonex(people call him Bo) and Qiaodian! Everytime I go, it’s mainly them to help me DIY a soup base or a dipping sauce. I had help from other servers too like Long, Lily, Yan, Pingping, Siu, Alex, Floria and 2 others more but I forgot the names😅 they are all very amazing and I love eating and spending my time here a lot. There’s one thing I would probably say is there was a few times when I went, there wasn’t vanilla ice cream and left with only mango flavor and I am allergic to mango so I just hope there are more flavor of ice creams in the future or at least always have vanilla ice cream in stock. But overall this place is great! I will keep coming 😁
Seb Vidal
I love this place! Awesome food and awesome service. Recommend having a reservation weekend evening, as it tends to get pretty busy.
Shoutout to our waiter Long — thanks!
Evan Sze
Broths and food are amazing. The waiters are extremely helpful and it’s a huge space with enough privacy. Service is quick and easy as you order through iPads.
Kristin Heaven
Best hot pot I’ve been to so far! The broth options are delicious. My husband is a vegetarian so we had two veggie options and two pork broths for me. They were absolutely delicious. The food options are the same as most hotspots veggies, meat, fish but tastes so fresh. Love the option to order from the tablet and not have to search out a server. The service from start to finish from Amy was top notch! She came to check on us multiple times throughout the meal and as it was our first time there she took the time to thoroughly explain everything to us and answered all our questions in relation to the broth options. She was always close by if we needed something and even answered our question about a table setup when we saw them doing it for a birthday. Good to know all the little things that come with celebrating a birthday here. We love this place and will be our new go to hot pot spot.
Nekamarie Roberts
If I could rate it more I would. This is the first time I was wonderfully shocked at the professionalism and care the young staff took to care for each table. My family had a wonderful experience. The staff gave us directions when we were lost coming tot he restaurant. They continued to be polite and guide through the menu selection. All staff as I noticed were attentive to everyone’s needs as the night was full and busy. No attitude just great personalities and patience. They Helped us with to go bag as we were stuffed early on. I will say we enjoyed ourselves as a party of 4.
Jenny Pham
Always have a great experience whenever I go. Their broths are great, service is always on point. Food is delicious. They also do a cute birthday setup for special occasions.
Neos Sama
This is my second time visiting the place and the service is immaculate as always. Our server, Andrew, did a phenomenal job and tended to all of our needs without even asking. He definitely went above and beyond and made us as customers feel like we are at home eating comfort food. When we go back, I will definitely ask for Andrew!
The food is amazing as well as always!
Kenneth Rodgers
The food was great. Large portions the soup bases are delicious. Although on the pricy side I think it's well worth it. The service alone was amazing our waitress Ada was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. She even apologized for a slow service even though we thought the service was really fast. This was during peak hours 6-8pm we didn't feel the service drag at all. Very impressive.
Serg Chernata
Food and service here are nothing short of amazing. All of the ingredients were fresh, the broths were flavorful and the wait staff went above and beyond expectations. Tomato broth was very interesting, mushroom broth had the least flavor but the classic spicy was my favorite.
Amelia
Waiting time was at least 1.5 hours without reservation so be sure to reserve before you come. The food tasted pretty good and service could be a little better as I think they were understaffed. Overall, I enjoyed my experience.
Mina
Haidilao was a really fun experience. Me and my husband came here for my birthday and it was our first time trying hot pot. It was a little pricey but worth the money, we got a few different kinds of food quality beef, we got the watermelon Soju drink, lots of veggies , and sides, they have lots of sauces available to dip your meat in. The hot and sour broth is really tasty and they come by whenever you need a refill on your soup. The restaurant has such a nice ambiance and it’s really clean, workers are friendly and they surprised me with a happy birthday song it was really funny and cool they also give you a gift if it’s your birthday. Bathroom is really clean they offer designer perfumes, tooth brushes, etc in the bathroom. Definitely would come here again
Edward Chang
Overall a wonderful experience, our server, Long, was an absolute joy. The quality of the meat was amazing and tasted fresh. The pork broth was also wonderfully seasoned, but a little too salty. The spicy broth is very spicy, but the mala flavor is perfect. The sauce selection is large, but there was a little of a off taste with the fried minced garlic. The table size for a group of 6 was a little small, as all the meat was piled on top of each other. The experience can be very messy, but they do supply aprons. The price is also a little higher per person, for our group, $40. Overall, a 4.75/5
Yandi Wang
First time customer! Absolutely love it! Despite no reservation, there was only a 10 min wait. Lots of activities in the waiting area. When seated, we were very promptly attended by the server! Food quality is awesome! Sauce station is beyond amazing with lots of snack options that remind me of childhood nostalgia! Would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants to try hotpot for their first time!
Shubhangi Rathi
Love this place! Highly recommend. You can get a manicure or a massage while you wait to get a table for free. Also, you can play board games and they have a karaoke room. Food is delicious! Plus, if it’s your birthday they bring you a fruit salad and sing happy birthday.
Anni Liu
I had a great time at Haidilao Flushing NY thanks to Alex's fantastic service. He was attentive, friendly, and made our visit truly enjoyable. The food was also delicious and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!
Deanna Y
Amazing meat quality !
This place is very clean and organised. The meat is better than any all you cal eat hotpot/bbq in the city . I recommend you try the fresh noodles as it is freshly made.
The toilet has a extraordinary bidet installed.
Women bathroom provide lady Dior perfume incase you feel uncomfortable/concern about the after hotpot smell .
Great service .
Yiren Lu
My friend had a 20 person birthday party in one of the private rooms and we all had such a good time! Amy our server was literally the hardest working and sweetest I have ever experienced, such a great attitude. manager ex was great too. Would definitely come back for my own birthday!
Danny Chong
Great experience here! And we were surprised by the service! It’s really more of an experience than a simple restaurant. Haidilao is renowned for this, particularly their other locations in Asia. You can even get your nails done here....
For the experience...once you’re seated, you are asked if you’ve been here before...there’s a zip lock bag for you to store your mask. They show you how to order on the tablet. Everything comes really quickly! Quick note on the broth...I highly recommend the tomato one. Surprisingly good and helps bring out the flavor in the food. The pork bone is also great!
The most amazing thing of all for our visit is that we came with an infant in a stroller. Most of the time when we go out to eat we just keep the stroller by us in the table (duh!). Because of space constraints they offered us a bassinet to put our baby in and the stroller was stored away. We were surprised they even had this and was told they clean it. Also I forgot to mention sometimes they have robots that roam around to bring out the food (thinking robot vacuum but 3 feet tall) so it makes sense.
Overall food was great. Pricier than other hot pot places but it is justified. Service is impeccable!
Roxanne Alberts
Absolute best hot pot in New York. They honestly need a Michelin star, best service I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant. Thank Maggie for being our server!
Akshay Kashyap
Amazing food (and not pricey). Even better service (shout out to my man Andrew) - you get everything from aprons at the table to combs in the bathroom. Would definitely go back soon.
Elizabeth Holt
Ada was the best! It was our 1st time at hot pot, she explained everything, made us feel so comfortable. The staff was wonderful to us with our twins, they are 20 months old, loved their free meals and trying bits of ours! The food recommendations were excellent, I would not have thought to order shrimp balls but they were delicious.
Katie Zheng
One of the best experiences I’ve ever had! Calvin was our server, and he was amazing. He was so attentive, always made sure we had what we needed, and even helped us cook something we didn’t know how to. The food was also incredible. Definitely recommend, especially Calvin who made sure we left satisfied.
Joanne Vu
Had the best lunch experience with my waitress Maggie. The food was great and the broth, pork bone and spicy pork bone, was so good. Maggie was attentive and made sure we always had our water filled, as well as gave us ice cream at the end of our meal. Can’t wait to come back soon, thank you Maggie!
Keemo Chi
My spouse and I drove about 3.5 hours just to try this place after a friend of ours told us about it. Our waiter was Andrew; he was very attentive, kind, and informative. He guided us through our meal. He was super helpful and very knowledgeable about everything. Our food was brought to us quickly, and everything was fresh. The soups/broths were delicious as well, everything was super fresh.
The bathrooms were extremely clean, bidets in all of the women’s stalls. There were so many sanitary objects for women in there; it was heaven.
I feel a lot of places beed to learn from this one; it was a lovely experience.
Shannon Kim
Highly recommend!!! The food was amazing, the space was well designed and so pleasant, and most of all the service was awesome. Andrew was our server and he gave us really good recommendations on what to order & how to try different sauces, etc. Tomato broth was our favorite, with added spice. All of the meat and vegetables were extremely fresh.
Chau Tran
The best hot pot in NYC. I love the experience. Good foods, good service. Don’t miss out the kobe and wagyu beef. The lady room is full of fancy stuff like dyson hair dryer, dior perfume, bonus toothbrush and comb. I will definitely go back!
Kelly Kwong
I had a great time at Haidilao, the food was great and very fresh. The service was amazing and the server Maggie really showed me each process of eating the hot pot. I would definitely come back for the food but especially due to the service here. Everyone was happy to answer any questions I had. I absolutely would recommend Haidilao and when I come back I hope Maggie can serve me again.
Liezl Gamboa
Came here for my friend's birthday! Our server Andrew was so nice and attentive. The food was also great! My partner has dietary restrictions and the many options for broth, meat, veggies, and even cooked food was great for all of us!
Martino Pham
Beautiful, spacious and clean. Our server was attentive and welcoming. We took some friends here whove never experienced hotpot before and I feel like Haidilao is the perfect place for that situation. They have a robust sauce bar, the food presentation is beautiful, the bathrooms are stocked like a private club and my god, they even have an ice cream machine. It's like I'm 12 again. After finishing our meals, they even have a cool towelette dispenser and to go hot teas to help digest the rich foods. A++
Stephanie Moya
Amazing. Delicious. Service is beyond amazing and the restaurant is big, clean, spacious. Highly recommend!
R B
I went here recently and had a great time. Andrew and Annie were so attentive and kind, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. The menu has so many delicious options to choose from (the oats and milk mochi was my favorite), the restaurant is so clean and bright, and everyone there is really courteous. I would definitely go again!
HONG JONG
Party room is great! Dan Dan, Ping Ping, Amy, Maggie, Ada, and Vivian are excellent!
Matthew Luen
It was my first time at Haidilao and it was phenomenal! My waiter named Long was so nice and very helpful.
The food was so good overall and everything was good quality. Also random but the bathrooms are so nice. They have heated bidets and eye drops in the bathroom. Will come again
maximiliano barona
Long was the best, this restaurant was the best. It really does deserve 5 stars out of 5. (I never been to a hot pot before so I was unfamiliar) I never experienced so much hospitality before, Long was so thought. He brought and made us soup, he gave the best suggestions, made us a salad. Checked on us low key by just walking by a lot to and occasionally asked if we where good.
Just need to experience it for yourself. But super impressed. Def bringing my wife on many more dates here
This restaurant is very high quality, they have everything you need in the bathrooms, to shaving cream and a razor to a new tooth brush and tooth paste, wet wipes for glasses, Q-tips, mouth wash and more! And the bathroom has a BIDET!!! And free ice cream after !
The table is very nice.
Kevin W.
Best hot pot I've had in years. The food was great, and service was fast and efficient. My party also had someone with celiac disease, and the experience was smooth and easy for them - the options on the menu are all listed with their allergens, and for the ones not written in English the server showed us which character meant wheat.
We will definitely be back!
A. Yumi Yamsuan
I had a late night dinner here tonight and needless to say had an amazing experience. Ex and Andrew went above and beyond to make our meal super memorable. My bf is allergic to peanuts so Ex made us a super tasty sauce mix.
Everything about the food and experience was 10/10. Our guy Andrew even brought my friend 2 ice cream cones at the end of the night. Can’t wait to go back!
Kelsey Chin
WE ATE SO WELL 🤤 Definitely on the higher end of hotpot experiences (about $100 for two people) but it was totally worth it. Alex, our server was super attentive and really kind. The taro ice cream was really good, and the bathrooms were definitely the cleanest and nicest that I’ve ever seen in a restaurant. Definitely go if you have the chance!
Kylie Bernard
Great hot pot and impressive sauce bar. This place had of the best service I have ever experienced – Andrew was legendary. He was on top of everything, offered us the utmost attention and even got me a tide pen when he noticed that I spilled some sauce on my pants. Did I mention we got ice cream at the end? Perfect to appease the ever burning and tingling mala sensation in my mouth. Bonus: heated toilet seats and bidets. Unforgettable.
Tiffany Chiang
Food was incredibly high quality and delicious. Timing instructions included with most menu items. Live shrimp is a must get! Ah Long was an amazing server, quick, informative, and went out of his way to make us have an amazing experience! Make sure to hit up the well stocked bathrooms and stick around for a bit in the lounge for some board games!
Ludovic MASSON
What a great time, experience, food !! we totally recommend this place. We have been lucky to go there with some friends from Singapore and they ordered and help us on how to do things. We really loved it !
All products are great quality - service was perfect ! and we loved the little robot carrying the food :)
we definitely come back there and try other stuff !
Janice Chung
Me and my friends had such a good time here. Food was delicious, veggies were really fresh. The soups were awesome and our server Andrew was incredible. He was the star of the show. Thanks so much for making our lunch so wonderful.
Isabel Shaw
Absolutely amazing experience! Wait was long but so much fun with candy and games. Then the meal - incredible! Our server Maggie was great too. Also make sure to check out the bathroom!
Jared Baum
This place was super clean, modern, HUGE, and we were able to order everything off a tablet. The quality of the food was superb, especially the broth bases. Our server, Alex, did a great job and was very attentive. I live an hour away by car, and even though parking is a nightmare in Flushing, I would definitely come back and bring others!
Mer'Ce Grace
This is my first visit to New York and my brother and I were overly excited for the Chinese hot pot cuisine here! Surely we were not disappointed. David C. is our server and his service has been top tier. He did a wonderful job explaining the menu (especially since I am a first timer) he was so courteous!! I can appreciate this whole entire experience. Not to mention the food is DELISH!! 5stars for me!
Michi Mercantile
Olina and Andrew were very kind and made our birthdays extra special!
Daisy Jane
We loved our server Maggie. She was tentative, kind and helpful. She know it's our first time there so she spent extra time with us explaining everything even though it's a Saturday evening and she's crazily busy. We want to come back next time and ask for her again
Hang Yu Xu
We enjoy the food there and it always has the great service! We drive 2 hours from PA only for the hot pot once every another month! I love seeing my wife smile while having the food. Tomato soup is must to have and I makes myself a noodle with it. It has nice kick and out of world!
Nishad Deshpande
Loved this place! One of the best meals I've had. The sauce station alone is worth but the excellent food and service, as well as reasonable price really make it a must. Special shout out to Andrew and Leo for being such great hosts!
Ariel Chi
This is my absolute favorite place to hotpot. The food is always so fresh and the tomato pot is a must try. I love the jelly desert after the meal. It’s so refreshing 😋
The service is always amazing here. Andrew was my server tonight and he was excellent. Making sure I got everything I needed and packing the extras for me for tomorrow. 😊
Luolan Kuang
Great food! Great atmosphere! Very friendly staff. Our waiter long was very kind and attentive. Would definitely recommend!
Bita Conelli
We came in as a party of 5. Long was our waiter, he was very professional and helpful. He even made some special sauces and brought it to the table without us asking for it. He explained everything thoroughly and made our dinner feel extra special. I highly recommend this establishment. They are very clean and very friendly!
James Luk
We celebrated a birthday there and it was a fantastic experience.
The evens decorated our table free of charge and helped up cut our cake.
Our server, Long, was excellent and gave us the best recommendations for food and soup bases.
Highly recommend!!!

I ate here a few days ago with my friends and the customer service was literally the best I've experienced. Our waiter, Alex was super helpful and patient with us. He explained how everything works since we were first timers at Haidilao. It is pricy but the quality and service were 100% worth it. Definitely go check it out!!!
Evanna Phan
we had a great experience at Haidilao! The food was lovely and the staff was kind. I had Long as our waiter for my dinner. It was so busy during the holidays but Long did a great job servicing us as well as making us feel comfortable despite the holiday rush.
David W. Astor
Very good setup and service is very attentive and staff is friendly. Fun assortment of soup bases to try. Family friendly and great for birthdays (staff can sing Happy Birthday and have toys for kids). Waits can be long if no reservations. (Each party generally takes their table for the entire lunch or dinner rotation)
Daniel Reshef
Between the food quality, the taste and the service, it’s tough to ask for more. My wife and I had never been to a hot pot restaurant before, so the staff happily explained every little detail to us and made sure to bring us different combos to try, and in general were very attentive the entire time. I would definitely recommend Haidilao Hot Pot to anyone.
Subi Dubi
I love this place. Especially their service, really good and decent, I don’t have to call server for anything, they just come to you frequently to ask you if you need anything. We got served by a server Alex, had great time with wonderful service. I hope boss can see this review, get him a bonus pay or day off to reward this guys. We really need this kind of services at Boston. lol.
Angelica Coddington
Absolutely incredible experience customer service and wait staff are phenomenal!! Long made sure we had everything we needed and more!! He was superb! On top of the experiencing amazing the food is just as good. If you're looking for a hot pot this is absolutely the place!!!!

Expensive, tasty, clean, free souvenirs, spacious, delicious peach ice cream and quality ice cream cone. Pork broth is a bit bland but everything else was enjoyable.
Rachel Smith
Incredible experience. Our waiter Andrew and everyone here was so helpful and patient. The food was a delight and the atmosphere perfect for kids. A really memorable and awesome meal. We can’t wait to come back!
Ashley Nguyen
I’m visiting New York on vacation, and it was my first time here. I really enjoyed the food and customer service. Our waiter, Alex, was especially kind and understanding. I appreciated how accommodating he was. We will definitely visit again! Thank you for a great first experience, Alex!
Wallace Tang
They serve a lot of freebies e.g welcome drinks, snacks, candies and the bathroom is so well equipped e.g even with a disposable razor! The whole place is clean, spacious, excellent food, friendly staff! The price is slightly more expensive compared to those buffet style hotpot places but the food quality and service are worth the price! Our server Long is very attentive! We had a good time!
Alvin Tong
Went to HaiDiLao hot pot for the first time this past weekend. I've always heard great things about them and their customer service. I loved the vibes and how they were all so accommodating. Special shoutout to Ada and Amy, who made sure we were comfortable and kept checking in on us. Food was great. Definitely one of the best hot pot places I've tried!
Debra Khoo
Service was great. The outdoor dining has heaters to keep us warm. We only had to wait 10mins on a day afternoon without prior phone reservations. A little pricey but quality of food and service makes up for it. We had the pork bone broth hot pot, braised pork rice, Dan Dan noodles, and that crispy pork appetizer.
David Sang
Went here for dinner with my friends. The food was super tasty! The ingredients were high quality and reasonably priced. Andrew was an amazing server! He was super attentive and very helpful!
Eunbee Jang
The food was so good! Broth was great but the best thing about this place was the service. Amy was very attentive and never left our cup or pot empty. She also brought me a hair tie and apron so I can eat without getting it all over.
Phu Tran
First time trying Hadilao hotpot and the experience is amazing. The food is fresh and tasty. My favorite out of all soup we tried was tom yum and we highly recommended it. Amy and Vivian, who served us that day really made our visit incredibly pleasant.
Edison Lin
Our server Amy was outstanding in every aspect, she helped us prep the shrimp paste, offered us refills on our drinks, and was incredibly informative. The front of house Ada was very efficient we were promptly sat down after registering. These two combined made our dining experience at HDL very memorable. Everything was on par with the brand reputation and will be returning soon.
Madeline Groth
This was a great experience! Definitely worth the journey! The sauces are fresh, so many choices, the soups are boiling and tasty. The establishment is clean and very well maintained. I felt very safe coming here. The booths are comfortable and modern. Our server Long is amazing!!! Definitely try to get in his sections. He knows how to whip up a tasty sauce if you don’t know what you want. He was always there to help you if you have questions. Thank you Long!!
Julianne Recine
This was my first time dining at Haidilao and definitely not my last. Andrew was our amazing server who explained everything about the process and menu to us and constantly checked in to see whether we needed anything. He was also very patient and accommodating to our large group which included a young kid. The food was delicious and fresh. We chose 4 soup options (tomato and mushroom were favorites) as well as a number of proteins and vegetables. The meats and shrimp were very tasty and the tofu skin is a must. I also enjoyed the mixed vegetables which included mushrooms and some noodles.
Aside from the excellent food, the restaurant has some added features such as a self serve area which includes fruit, candy, boiled peanuts and a sauce station. I don't typically speak about restrooms but Haidilao's restrooms were not only very clean but included great amenities such as toothbrushes, a hair dryer, hand creams and diapers!
shineden
The best hot pot in NYC. Had the most amazing hot pot experience ever. It was supreme. The food is delicious. It smells good, it looks good and the taste even better. The staff is super courteous, excellent service and the price is right. It's a must try. Can't wait to go back for more. Oh and I love the apron concept. I would love to buy that apron
Wen Lu
If I could give more than five stars here I would. The minute you walk through the door you are greeted by a kind smiling person it’s a very nice place. Food is amazing tasty my server Dan Dan make me a fantastic mushroom sauce. So good. Thank you Dan Dan
Christina Wen
Definitely a great place to bring with your friends or company. Amazing service by Long. Great sauce suggestions and fun goodies 😁❤️
Julia Schneiderman
This place is so great. Runs so smoothly, everything is so delicious, and great hospitality. Our server, Long, was very welcoming and helpful! And he made sure our soups stayed topped up. We had an absolute blast and can’t wait to come back!
Ofelia Marquez
What an amazing food and experience! We had been to other hot pot places before, and this place is by far the best. Yes, slightly more expensive, BUT if you over order you can take home your extras.
Also, the staff, especially our server Calvin, was a huge help. He made helpful suggestions as to what sauces to pair with our broths and dishes, making us feel confident in the several choices we could have gone with. Thank you, Calvin!
S Zhou
Food is great but the service is lackluster, much worse compare to our last few visits. Haidilao used to be known for its good service, but sadly it is getting worse and worse because it seemed new waitress are not well trained.
The waitress randomly turned off our pot while we’re obviously still eating without asking, and didn’t bother to add any water to our pot in the meantime.
The store is not busy when we visit, there is only a few tables, but somehow it is a bit hard to find the waitress to add water etc for us.
We ordered shrimp paste and the shrimp ball he made is way too big compare to the standard size that we had before so we had to pick those up from pot and cut it in half ourselves.
Emma
Ada and Yanni went over the top service for us, will definitely be back. Food is good and service is beyond words. They even do a whole shebang bday w/ gift for you if you have a bday coming up. I got a moaning duck, that’s a plus for me. :)
Chollada Klibbua
I went to this hotpot place many times. It is excellent as always. Siu is our waiter, he’s so detailed and well prepared. When we had a problem logging, he spoke to the manager and got resolution for us all without us asking him to do it.
Maria Whelan
We are vegetarian yet ate to our heart’s content. Recommend the tomato and mushroom broths. Andrew is an amazing server and we had a incredible experience. The restaurant is clean, atmosphere is festive, and professional staff. Free ice cream, aprons for dining and nice waiting space with refreshments. 10/10 experience
Kevin Tran
Haidilao is good as usual but the service provided Long elevated my experience from all the other hot plot places around! He was very attentive and accommodating to all of my party’s request! Definitely made the atmosphere very friendly. Will be coming back for all of my hot pot cravings if services like this is provided everytime.
Shawn Luo
It was our first time to visit Haidilao. We heard that the service here is great but we were still impressed by how good it is. Andrew helped us go through the menu in details, and he was very patient and friendly. The food quality here is also good. We’ll definitely be back again.
Alex Cantor
Excellent experience, hospitality, and of course food! Coconut water was excellent. As was the fresh tofu. They prepared everything in front of us out of the goodness of their hospitality for us, since we’ve never been to a place like this.
Daniel Leung
Excellent hot pot place! High end! Superb service overall. Shout out to Long our waiter! Super nice and accommodating! Decor and bathrooms are modern luxury and clean. Bathrooms have shaving creams, shavers, mouth wash, toothbrush and other toiletries you might need. Preparation and presentation A+++
Food was definitely delicious. The best part is their broths. We picked chicken and pork bone broth. Chicken broth is a must have / must try!!!
Highly recommended!!!
Timothy Rooney
Wow! I have been to all of the local hotpot places in town, such as Little sheep, Dollar Shop, Xiang. This one is by far the best. I have never had such amazing service at a restaurant. The servers were so incredibly kind with every aspect of our dining. They switched flawlessly between speaking Chinese and English depending on which member of our table with whom they were speaking. Any problem we had, such as the broth being too spicy, was fixed immediately. Any question we had the entire night, they were there to help!!! I can not say enough good things about our servers Andrew and Carrie, truly wonderful people. The food was also delicious. I am so glad we came here. We will be back.
Opal Karan
Hands down best place we have ever been to ! The food is absolutely delicious and the servers and customer service is beyond compare. Long, our waiter was amazing and his service made us feel right at home. Will definitely be coming back !
Moses Slone
Such an awesome place!! Literally top notch!! The best in Flushing a must go! Food taste amazing and it has such an upscale vibe!!! They also have a cute waiting area for you to enjoy a selection of teas and snacks for free!! Perfect for a surprise date night!
benqun lin
Y’all can’t even lie, this is the best hotpot in flushing! Ada and Amy are hands down the best servers here! Been here many times and they’re literally the best. Oh and Ada made some niceeee sauces for us so if you’re there and want some good sauces, request for her!
Jiamin Zhuang
Haidilao Hot Pot are definitely one of the best places to eat as the cold weather and winds starting to hit here in Flushing. They always have fresh and delicious food and also friendly service. We had the girl name Amy to be our waiter the other day and she was definitely the sweetest girl. We will absolutely make our way back there several more times during this winter.
Qi Zheng
I came to this place a lot. Food has always been exceptional and the staff were always welcoming. I’m finally writing a review because this is the first time my party had booked a private room and the server Maggie’s service was extra stellar. Food has always been great and never let us down either.
Elizabeth Pollard
This is by far the best hot pot experience I’ve had in NYC! The quality of the food is great, amenities are incredible, but the service is what really stood out. Long took great care of us and made sure we had everything we could possibly want or need. The soft serve service at the end really took it over the edge :,). We can’t wait to come back! Thank you, Long!!
Weiyu Deng
Always great service, shout out to Yan! Delicious food and amazing place to celebrate special days!
Melissa FLORES
We had such a fun experience and the vegetarian hotpot broths (mushroom and tomato) were absolutely delicious. The servers were so kind and friendly! Such an experience. Definitely coming back soon!!!
Carlos C
Place and table set up was well thought out and very comfortable. Food was really good and allowed for our 4 different taste in soups. Our waiter Andrew provided excellent service. Spoke to us in both mandarin and english to make ordering very easy. And was very attentive to us. Will be back, service was amazing, highly recommend this place.
Navie Choun
The experience was delightful. Haidilao has a unique dining experience I have never experienced before till today. Our server, Long, was attentive and informative. The food was delicious and our server made the experience even greater. Worth the money. Would dine here again if I’m ever in New York.
Thang Nguyen
Our server, Siu, is very amazing at his job. I got myself a bowl of porridge and didn’t realize that I forgot to get myself a spoon, but when I just sat down to the table and he just pass me the spoon without i am asking for. He is very caring for the table he is taking care. I highly recommend this place!! And Siu, you did a very good job. Definitely coming back!!!
Ben Robinson
Just went here with some friends and it was a fantastic meal! I have a friend who’s lived in Shanghai and she told us this place was the best and she was right! All delicious food and our server, Amy, was amazing. Highly recommend!!!
malcolm wong
It was my son’s birthday and we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at our table to see the birthday presentation the staff prepared for us. The waitress was very pleasant and helpful and made our time there very enjoyable! It was a very fun and enjoyable experience and we would certainly recommend anyone wanting to celebrate a special occasion to go there!
Leyi D.
Although it was a bit pricy for a hot pot place, Haidilao deserves to set high prices because they had great quality ingredients and had excellent services.
Chinese people usually say you go to Haidilao not to eat hotpot, but to enjoy the services. It’s partially right cause the servers will prepare you with everything you need (lens wipes, plastic bags to put you phone in so they don’t get splashed, cloth covers, hair rings if you have long hair, etc.) They even have Dior perfume, to-go combs, to-go toothbrushes, cotton buds, cotton pads, sanitary pads (in women’s restroom), mouthwash etc. in the restroom.
You will also get fruits and ice cream cones included in your meal after you are finished with the food on the table.
The quality of the hotpot ingredients were also well-maintained and they were delicious.
However the hotpot soup base were very pricy. You can choose to have 1,2,4 different soup bases (if I remembered correctly), but you would need to pay around $25-$30 for the soup base no matter how many you choose . It added a lot to the final price, and we didn’t get to order a lot of food because it very easily reached $100+ (for two people). Hope the soup base can be less expensive so that there could be room for us to order a little bit more food.
Overall, it was a very satisfactory experience!
Ashneel Das
The food and environment was phenomenal here! Our waiter, Andrew, also provided some of the best service I’ve ever had, checking in with us frequently and making sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend!
Weihua Li
I haven’t been here since the pandemic, and I forgot how amazing this place is, both the food and the service. Our server Maggie was super helpful, tentative and diligent! We had a great experience dining here.
Joseph Kim
Amazing food! Amazing service as well, thank you to my server, Yani! She was so polite and well informative, probably one of the best service I’ve seen by far in quite a while! Glad to see a new generation of hard working individuals in the service industry!
JingYi liu
Yuna from Haidilao has a particularly good service and a very good attitude. Everything I want will help me, and she speaks softly.
Chi Bellmore
My second time here after a few years since my last visit. It was just as great as it was pre-pandemic. Top notch attentive service tonight! Ada was fantastic and I really appreciated how personable and attentiveness she was.
Kisari-V
Long is a great waiter! Great experience and keep an eye on the spiciness! It's good but I wish I could handle the spicy level. Try the dancing noodle! It's a great experience for birthday dinners ^_^
Jimmy Lin
the food was amazing but the service was AMAZING. I had a server named ADA and she made my experience so much better. I would 100% recommend the restaurant and if you get Ada as a server it's always a plus!!!
John Private
Hot Pot that is really, really good! Some hot pot places are lame, not good at all. But Haidilao's is authentic. Fresh food too, nothing day old like I've seen before. Finally found a Hot Pot place I can come back to with my family. Thank you Haidiao's!
Zhe Wang
My favorite hotpot place in Flushing. The meat, veggies, and other ingredients there is always fresh, and the customer service there is top notch. The restaurant is huge and offers many different sauces, drinks, and dessert options. Great place for friends to chill, relax and talk, and family dinners.
Seán Hassett
We came here for Chinese New Year's Eve. Service was great and really helpful. It was our first time here and the waiter, Ex, explained everything. It was a good idea to let him make some sauces for us rather than doing it ourselves. He was a master. The later waiter, Long, was also helpful and offered complimentary ice cream. My mouth is dancing and I have an endorphin rush. I can't wait to come back.
R. H.
Loved eating here and trying hotpot for the first time with my boyfriend. Andrew, our server, was especially pleasant and made our experience that much more enjoyable. Will be back again!
Kevin Zhan
Ok dining experience, was a bit on the pricey side
Lindsay Geier
Delicious!! We got tomato and spicy mala base, pork, tofu, so many veggies and an abundance of sauce. Long was an amazing waiter! Can’t wait to go back again.
Y S
Came here with colleagues and they were super impressed. Our waiter Long was incredibly nice and attentive. He made a sauce that we all loved so much.
Kelso Lee Kennedy
Yuna, Chen, and Andrew gave us thee best service ever. We had a huge party and they made sure everyone was satisfied and happy. They even sang us happy birthday! it was so fun!
Brian Lum
Location is very nice and clean. Even on a busy night our waiter Andrew was extremely attentive and went way above and beyond. Also free ice cream cones after dinner was awesome.
Alan Kollar
Great food, customer service is always top notch. The manager there remembered my girlfriend's allergies from last time. Shout out to our waiter Long, very attentive and respectful, thank you.
Giancarlo Marconi
Over the top customer service & delicious food! Our waitress Maggie was particularly attentive & helped make sure we had everything we needed / explained the menu and all of the great options.
Sergio Butron
Long was amazing! We love his energy, he was attentive, and he made us laugh and smile. The food was delicious and fantastic and full of good flavor. The price was excellent as well!
Huilin Pan (Aileen)
I love so many things about Haidilao that I don't know where to start. First, it has a very efficient and easy reservation system. The staff are all very friendly and passionate. The food is amazing, as well as complimentary snacks and desserts. They even have Dyson hair dryer, baby wipes, and smart toilet seat warmer in restrooms. It's one of the best places to celebrate special occasions.
Margaret Z
The place has really great service even before you’re seated with drinks and snacks to eat while waiting. Once seated, service, food, and environment was great too. Shoutout to our waiter, Long, for being amazing!
Yuyuan “Hana” Pan
Update based on second visit:
Service has deteriorated significantly since the first time we went there. I understand it was a busy Friday evening but it doesn’t explain why our server went missing half way through our dinner? We never saw him again after all the food have been brought up. We were basically served by several other servers responsible for the surrounding tables and some random server passing by and realized we were not attended and came to help us. We felt like we were a burden to these other servers because they had their tables to attend to and we had to stop them to ask for things because our server Kevin went AWOL.
——
Went on their second day of test opening. Lining up on the first level was a bit chaotic but once you get into the actual place it was the full haidilao service they are known for. All servers were super friendly and helpful (a bit too helpful sometimes lol). There’s a play area for kids and a couple of free massage chairs. Definitely child friendly with a special faucet for kids in the restroom. Free soft drinks and snacks in the waiting area and all you can eat appetizers brought to your table. Price is descent considering the service and food quality. All food are brought to our table within 10 minutes of ordering! Hope they keep up with the good reputation!
Christopher Lasasso
Great service, good amount of options, and comfortable seating. Some places feel small and claustrophobic when crowded but this was not the case. Andrew was our server and it was excellent service all around.
January Cayaya
My first hotpot in nyc and it was very pleasant! Carrie and the staff was very welcoming and nice. They were very prompt with our orders and often offered to help us with our hotpot. The hosts also put us in right away on time for our reservation. The food was great. Fresh meat and veggies. They also offer ice cream and fruits in the end! Had a lovely experience. Thank you again Carrie!
Nicholas Low
Awesome experience!!! The staff serving us, Long was such a great help and super friendly!
Phoebe Leung
Long wait so plan ahead with reservations. When we finally got our table though, the hotpot quality was so good and the service was even better. Andrew was our server and he made sure we had everything we needed and helped us check up on items that were taking longer.
Chandrika Agarawal
My husband and I love Haidilao. We always leave full and happy, and our most recent visit (last night) was no exception! Thanks to Amy and Ex for making our visit extra special! Amy took care of us and made sure we always had everything we needed, and Ex mixed his special secret sauce for us that made everything taste just right!
J Lee
Really great customer service from start to finish! Was provided a pillow after sitting down. Calvin was super attentive and kind. Felt really taken care of. This was our first time at haidilao and we'll def be back again.
Corey Puglisi
The service here is better than great. The food is seriously better than any AYCE hot pot you can find in queens and honestly not as expensive as you would think. We had calvin as our server and he was so sweet and made the experience amazing!!
Thao Dang
Very clean restaurant and most of all the best service! It was our first time here and everyone from the moment we walked in was so kind to us. Mango ice cream and vanilla. Fantastic after the spicy hotpot
Tony Fang
Love eating here. I have been coming hereon weekends 2 to 3 times a month. Thank you to Long for being an attentive server 🙏 didn't have to say much, and whatever needs that came up were provided before a word was mentioned
Liz Mariana Diaz Bravo
Excellent experience, great food. We completely enjoyed it. 100% recommended, best Hot Pot ever. Ask for Exdeus, he’s an amazing server and he will explain everything and make the best sauces for you.
dutsrm1 yup
We had a wonderful time here.
Our server was a guy named Long. He is definitely on my top waiter list.
Excellent job..!!! Happy Holidays.!!
Stephanie V Ayora
One of the greatest services experienced. Servers Andrew and Yuna were incredibly warm and accommodating.
The food was good and varied, and the drinks delicious
Sunny Wang
The staff was really nice and the food was good! It’s a good place for friends and/or family to hang out with. The staff are really attentive of your table and try their best to accommodate you. Our dancing noodle didn’t happen but we still got the pre made noodles.
Also, don’t be afraid to try out the secret codes! While they don’t have all the things like in HaiDiLao, China, they still have some of the freebies you might see on tiktok. All in all, I would come back.
Sarah Qiao
Haidilao is just such a fun experience. We really didn't know what to expect but from the moment we stepped in, we were transported to some sort of hotpot wonderland where people cared about how we experienced eating hotpot. The food was good (and you can probably find equally good if not better food elsewhere), but what stood out was the service and the attention to detail. We got hairties, a bag to put our phones in, lens wipes for those foggy glass situations as you hover over the pot, aprons for hotpot splatter and so many little things that you come to appreciate as you eat. We also had fun checking out the sauce bar that also came with fun snacks like pocky. We had a great time!
Diana Kao
We went to HaiDiLao for lunar new year and it was spectacular! Our waiter, Long, was extremely professional and attentive - he took excellent care of us. The food came out super quickly and was delicious! Thank you, Long, for helping us celebrate an amazing Lunar New Year!
Priscilla Cheng
Had a great time here with Amy as our server. She has helped us with our mochi desserts and we had an amazing meal with flavorful soup bases and fresh ingredients.
Carrie TAO
Amazing service and food as always!! This is our fist Haidilao in US but have been to Haidilao many times in China. Exdeus made us feel very welcomed and gave detailed explanations to the food. Will definitely come back again.
Eric Lee
Our whole party walked out full and happy with the bill only coming out to be like $30 per person (and that's with the watermelon soju). Also free ice cream! Andrew was a great server
Shiba Inu
You will be treated like a king by the staff. Well worth the long wait. The attention to details from the waiting room to the toilets are mind blowing. All staff very friendly, helpful and well trained. Refreshing to see this level of high service in NYC (in a non stupidly expensive restaurant).
Serena Gil
i've been here multiple times and the service is always so friendly, atmosphere is inviting and the experience is so so worth it! food is amazing of course and there are always options for everyone to enjoy. shout out to our server alex today for being awesome even though we were a big group !! highly highly reccomend ♥︎
Aitor C.
Very nice place! Friendly staff, nice looking place and the hot pot was one of the best I've had. It has self service for sauces, so you can mix your own and a good variety of broths and ingredients.
Carla Prado
Our waiter was awesome. His name is Long. He was super attentive, and cordial, and has great food recommendations. Next time you visit make sure to look for the awesome waiter with the cute pins and tiny unicorn Keychain 🦄
Victor Coscia
Food was good, place was clean and staff was very nice. We had Andrew as our server, he was very attentive and super polite. I would recommend going here and asking for Andrew.
Alexia Kollar
I’ve been dreaming of coming to Hai Di Lao for way too long, and I thank GOD I was not disappointed. Customer service from Long is absolutely all-star, and the attention to making sure you are taken care of and well informed of how the hot pot works is zealous. The food was delicious, fresh, generous, and I can’t wait for the next time I’m in NY to come back! My only regret was not getting the noodle dance :/
An Qi Li
Great food and service. Definitely recommend getting the mixed ice cream flavor at the end of the meal! Long was a great server and we’d come again.
Katherine Trevisan
tried this place for the first time and WOW the service. Alex was amazing he gave us great recommendations. the soup bases were so flavorful and the meat selections were amazing.
Ina-Louise Thomas
Had a great time here for dinner. Long was our server and he was fun and friendly. Great job. Will definitely tell my friends and come back!
vivriia
hello!??? best hotpot place. such nice service. food was delish!!! love how you can make your own dipping sauce. they even had amenities before seating and in the bathrooms!? will come here again when i go back to new york.
Yin Chen Lim
We love Hai Di Lao in flushing! In all honesty we have been to many many hot pot places and Hai Di Lao has always been the best and our favorite. Hai Di Lao service is always amazing and they are super super clean. I’m a stickler for cleanliness. I hate food places that are dirty. Today we were served by Andrew. Andrew is amazing! Very polite and thoughtful. He did everything right and we could not be happier that we had Andrew service us today. He is very patient in explaining things to us when we had questions. We definitely recommend Hai Di Lao in flushing to anyone that wants quality and clean food. The wait is very long but worth the wait.
Nidhish D
This is literally hot pot on crack. What an amazing experience. Definitely recommend it if you like or want to try hot pot. Do get a reservation. Staff is friendly. The seasoning station is just wack (in a good way). The cute robot will make you feel giddy like a kid haha.
Volts Center
Food was amazing. Our waiter, Long, made our stay even better and was quick with our requests too. Would definitely be back and highly recommend.
Howie Solomon
I adore every aspect of this facility. The atmosphere is wonderful, the service is cordial, and the food is fresh. They distinguish themselves from the nearby competition for hot pot. highly suggestable Dandan is my servant.
Fangrou Zhou
Hailin is gorgeous!!! He is SO CUTE, KIND and NICE! Love him!
Joyce Ahn
Coming from ATL, where there’s a lot of good hot pot places, I did not have especially high expectations so I was VERY pleasantly surprised with everything from the waiting area to the food, dessert, and drink options. Special shout-out to Long and YY, they made the experience truly amazing! I am usually too lazy to leave reviews but HDL was too good not to🤭🤭🤭
Vincent Yu
Robot server 😆 only come first time and the waiter David do the service
Wish next time the robot become the real waiter :)
Honestly the food didn’t give much surprise, even this is second time here
The best part in Haidilao is always the people, maybe more robot in the future:)
Wish the best to the birthday girl next to our table
Shirley Nurse
Super duper service! But please try to make a reservation before you go or go earlier. They only have about 10 tables for reservations so a week before the day you go the reservations are open. Hope that makes senseI have been there twice and both times, I waited about 2 hours for a table on a weekday. They try their best to keep you comfy while you wait. They have juice and snacks for free. There are games that you can borrow. They even have a hand massage station and a screen protector changing station. Everything out in the lobby is free but they do a tip box. But once you're in, you're good. The second time we came here, we were celebrating my brother's birthday and the managers gave us hot pot chopsticks and DYI soup broth packet. Oh, if you order the pull noodles, you will get to see one of these guys dancing. Excellent service!
Yinghui Xu
Amazing experience here, also they supplied traditional Sichuan face changing magic 😈, the waiters were friendly and helpful with us, the fruit and sauces were delicious. The waiter his name Long was awesome, changing our plates and serviced us very good!!!
Rebecca Fu
BEST HOT POT RESTAURANT EVER! Amazing food and atmosphere, our server Andrew took care of everything we needed and was very respectful and kind to us all night.
Catherine Fradelos
Reservation needed, very enjoyable environment and dinner please put on your bucket list or come get asap was a very very enjoyable experience and the food was versatile and amazing!! Thank you to the owners Xiaoyu and Andrew for the wonderful birthday experience :)
Leah Schneider
I'm full just thinking about eating here. It was so good. Such delicious fresh ingredients. Amazing sauces and little crunchies. Just a lovely experience.
Mz. Mimi
Keeping true to the franchise standards Haidilao hotpot is all about providing a superior experience while you wait to be seated AND while you enjoy a meal with them. Our server Ben was absolutely amazing he really went out of his way to ensure we know about all amenities offered here.
The food was amazing, and too costly. I do recommend doing the 4 hotpot broths to ensure you try a little bit of everything. The dancing noodle show and the changing mask dance were definitely fun entertainment highlights. I highly recommend!
Erica Lei
Food was amazing and our server Long was exceptional. He was fast and attentive. Make sure you use your secret codes for fun surprises.
Alex Anderson
I visited this restaurant with friends. Only 1 of us spoke Chinese, so the waiters were very helpful in explaining the menu, how to cook the food, and in creating a delicious sauce based off our preferences. Andrew made our night! I can’t wait to return to enjoy more of the fantastic food and hospitality.

Awesome place to eat hot pot around Flushing area. Great food, super customer service (shout-out to Andrew, David and the team), and one of the safest place to eat out.
Temp check at the point of entry with a bunch of hand sanitizers, and only 4 people can be seated at 1 table.

Sadly our Haidilao NYC experience wasn’t great — especially compared to the California outlets.
Yes, there are more amenities in the waiting area, but what really matters in the end are food and service — both did not live up to the expectations. Our waitress’ house sauces were bland, except for her signature Thai-style satay. The house specialties were particularly bland and disappointing.
Considering the many other local hotpot options, we won’t return anytime soon.

For the first time, I celebrated my birthday at Haidilao. I really like the atmosphere. The waiter Alex is very enthusiastic, thoughtful and careful. This dining experience is very good~
Shashi Kiran
This is really good hot pot place. the tomo soup base is amazing. There are many options for vegetarians. the rice cake work cheese tops everything. The staff were very friendly and made sure we knew our options. The tables are placed on safe distance and you get covers to keep your masks.enjoyed the food while heartedly!!
Frances Fan
This is a great place to dine.
Excellent service and awesome dining environment. Fresh ingredients and delicious soup bases.
You can actually choose four soup bases, which is a great option if you couldn’t decide what to choose from. Of course you need to pay more.
The price is a little bit high relatively, but I guess we pay all the complimentary service and goodies, like hand message service, iPhone screen protector service, free ice cream and fruits, crackers, candies and drinks etc.
Waiting area is a good place to relax. Message machines, kids playground for age 3-8, table games etc.
Wei Connie
Love everything about this place. The staff is friendly, the food is fresh, and the ambience is great. They stand apart from the other hot pot places in the area. Highly recommend! dandan and pingping.
Hsin Yi Wei
Their service is the best of the best; A key reason that makes them special and outstanding. Haidilao is my favorite without a doubt and I visit them once a month.
I highly recommend to have green hot pepper and seafood with tofu broth.

What an amazing place to try hot pot. Staff named Long was super helpful with selection of menu. He specially made seasoning sauce for us. Great experience.
Jenn L
Seriously probably one of the best hot pots I've had outside of Asia. They've taken covid precautions and service was of high standards. Food was of course incredible. Can't wait to return.
Tom Nguyen
I love going to Haidilao and had been missing it so bad lately. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had a great outdoor setup and we had a great time. Our server, Andrew, was super attentive and always made sure we were comfortable. Can't wait to come back.
John Kim
Long was an amazing server and he took care of us really well. It was our first time at haidilao, and we didnt know how it worked, but he helped us with everything. The food was delicious and everyone was so helpful. Definitely a must come.
Claudia R.
Great experience, service and food. Our server, Long, was so attentive to all of our needs. Really enjoyed coming back and will definitely do inthe future!
Timothy Snyder
Always provides a great experience, with great food and excellent service. Long took care of us on our last visit and made sure all of our needs are met. I’ll be back soon
Sabrina Ramirez
The food was fresh and tasty, obsessed with the flavors. A1 service, good food portions, the space was clean and neat. It's not an "all you can eat" spot, but the ice cream was free 😋 A liiiittle pricey but worthy. …
Daliah Ammar
Incredible service. Ada was our server and made sure we were well fed and taken care of during such a busy night. She was awesome.
We reserved online on waitlist on a Saturday night at 6:30 and waited 1 hour (at home and then commuted, so really just 5 mins waiting inside the restaurant😄) I definitely recommend using the waitlist online on weekends. The quality of food really is incomparable to other hot pot spots in the area, definitely will keep coming back. 🫰
Angela Ng
Food and service are great. We have eaten here many times, and it never disappoints. Our waiter, Alex, was very attentive and friendly. Can't wait to come back again!
Sahay Yap
Andrew & Jing are PHENOMENAL!!! If you’re looking for authentic servers, they are the ones to ask for. This spot is a hidden gem. Great service & great options. Best hot pot I’ve been to so far.
Pablo Correa
Very pleased with the experience overall. The place is clean, the food is good, and the service is exceptional. Ada was incredibly attentive and made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. 100% will come back!
Christina M
The food was great with a decent selection of meats - we balled out with wagyu and Miyazaki beef for a special occasion. But the real star at Haidilao was the service. A big shout out to Haidilao staff for their patience and kindness, especially our server Alex:).
Other highlights:
+ That super nice bathroom with toothbrushes, mouthwash, razors, eye drops, perfume, and a Dyson hairdryer beats out luxury establishments in Ginza
+ Easy to use iPad ordering system
+ Thoughtful placement of tray holders and lights
+ Snacks, flavored waters, games, massage chairs, and hand massages in the waiting area (hell yeah!)
The only con is the wait time. We got there at 11:30am on a Wednesday and there was at least a 15 minute wait. But who cares when they have SNACKS?
Sopheak Tang
Best food and service! Our server Long was excellent, attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back.
Melissa Shang
Edit: Just went again and the service was again incredible with our server Andrew. It was my birthday and ended up needing 2 tables to fill 14 people and Andrew was so accomodating double checking if we needed more plates /chairs/cups and helping us put our coats in a nearby cupboard even though there wasn’t any formal coatcheck. We went through multiple corrections of our orders given we were so many people and Andrew never made us feel like we were being too demanding. He was also so helpful when my friends brought over the cake in finding us a candle and lighting it. 10/10 experience!
Such a great experience! Ada helped us for our friends birthday and we had a really great time.
Dennis Frame
Amazing service and amazing food. Long was amazing and responsive. 5/5 stars recommend. The wagyu was amazing!
Jacky Wang
Always happy and satisfied with food and excellent service. Nice stuff (Dan Dan ). Great place in queens. I would said the best hot pot around.
Tommy Shiou
Had a fantastic experience here for my daughter’s 5th birthday. Our server Calvin was incredible and made my daughter feel so special. Would highly recommend again!
justin wong
Entertaining place for group. A lot of amenities by the waiting area, unlimited snacks and drinks, just don't overdo it and don't have room for the real meal! Very crowded, come early. The foods are fresh and the waiters and waitresses are very. accommodating. When you first sat down, they will give you a bag to put your jackets in and give you and your party aprons to wear. They have a great selection of sauce and garnishes for you to choose from, they even have fruits and dessert right there at the sauce bar. Must try their dancing noodle, even if you don't like noodle, still be entertained by the server's noodle dance, be prepared to get noodle in your face. Parking lot is close by, 3-5 minutes walk.
Helene
We had a birthday celebration at Haidilao and everything from the food to the service exceeded our expectations. The staff went above and beyond to make the dinner special. This restaurant is also Covid friendly; outdoor dining with tables spread far apart and hand sanitizer at every table. The staff also gave out individual ziplock bags to store our mask and gave out hair ties to the ladies to tie our hair. It's the little detail that make for a awesome dining experience. I would definately dine here again.

First time trying Haidilao and we weren't disappointed! Thank you to Alex for the friendly service and taking us through the steps to get the most out of the experience. Will for sure be back!
Zerlina Lin
Just walking in, there are many amenities for customers to take advantage while waiting. There are snacks and beverages offered to everyone as well as a children playroom, a shoe shiner machine and a hand massage station. Sadly, I was unable to use many of the amenities due to lack of customers, it was not offered.
My friend made the reservation mentioning we were coming in for a celebration. I was pleasantly surprised to find our table nicely decorated with birthday decoration. It was a nice surprise on behalf of the Haidilao servers and staff.
Haidilao offers a wide range of food selections for customers to order. All orders are done on the iPad with accurate pictures and pricing of each food. Important to note that Haidilao is an order by plate hot pot restaurant NOT an AYCE. With that said, the quality of food is average and can be compared to others.
The most expensive part of the food sections are the seafood and the meat. During our visit, seafood was such as lobsters, Dungeness crabs, etc. was not available. Meat slices can range from $59.99 for Waygu to $10.99 for basic beef slice. Despite pay by plates, there were many things offered for free such as fruits, appetizers and dessert making sure you’ll leave Haidilao full and satisfied. At the end of dining, you are also offer soft serve ice cream.
Highly recommend ordering the Tomato hot pot soup base. The best tomato soup base compared to all its competitor. The tomato flavor is flavorful and light. The soup base is not as oily as it’s tomato soup base you can purchase from the supermarket. It had a nicely balanced between the sweet and savory. Haidilao also has sauces already made to help you pair with your corresponding soup base.
Haidilao is a reputable restaurant for its dancing noodles. I’d recommend ordering the dancing noodle for the experience only. If you’re looking to order for noodles to fill your stomach, I would not order it. I personally will not be ordering it again because the dance is quite short as well as for the price I paid, it comes with very little noodles.
Suggestion: Make sure to make an RSVP, this can reduce your waiting time especially for busier seasons!
Rico Sharp
This place was fantastic. We got here a little after midday and did have to wait around 15 mins. The waiting area is pretty cool though as there are different things to do, like play on the Nintendo. It’s a such a unique place.
It was definitely worth the wait it. The hotpot was good and there was a great selection of things to order. The thing that stood out most was the service. Our waiter was really good and attentive and I would go back just for that (plus the free ice cream at the end!).
Also, check out the bathrooms. Best I’ve ever been in! Heated toilet seats, those “spray your bum” water cleaner things which I still to this day am scared to try. There’s also plenty of shaving equipment there...yes that’s right! Razors, foam plus face wash and perfume.
Overall, you must try this place!

Amazing food and atmosphere and all above service. My waiter Andrew was so nice and accomodating, I felt very taken care of. 10/10 would recommend.
Jairo Coronado
Long was an amazing server. Brought the food out quickly. Also refilled my drink before I needed to ask which was great
JR Casa
Very nice lunch today. Kevin L is amazing in terms of brining us food, keeping the table clean, packing up takeout boxes. Thx for the self heat mini hot pot kits. Very nice gesture for Chinese New Year. Will and hope to come back to dine again very soon.
Wasabi Chan
The service is excellent. The food comes out great and clean. You can choose different broth for your hotpot. The manager Catherine is extremely knowledgeable with what is on menu. She always greet with a nice smile. That's a bonus with what people like to see
tara saha
One of my go to hotpot spots. The quality of their items and broths are great. Sauce bar is decent could be better with a few more sauce options.
Ma-Lé
HDL has the Best Outdoor Heated Dining set up in Flushing, Queens during this winter time during the pandemic.
First of all I love Hot pot!
The usual amenities that HDL provides still given and Plenty of heat lamps around the tents.
All staff wear protective gear and plenty of hand sanitizers on each table and welcoming area.
All foods are served fresh in Individual containers and nice alcohol options!
Catherine, David, Andrew and Annie are AMAZING. They give the best service!
You can make your reservations online.
Saturday and sundays are the busiest.
If you have never tried hot pot, this place is a great spot to try for your first time!

Calvin is a very handsome guy! Extraordinary service! We had an amazing birthday party at Haidilao! 100% recommended!!!

Haidilao hotpot simply outstanding! Server Yuna's warm hospitality, top-quality ingredients ensure a memorable meal.
Jacky Tsui
Went here with my wife for my mother in laws birthday. We were assisted by A Xiang and had a great time. As Lunar New Year was approaching, Haidilao was decorated with a lot of Lunar New Year items. One caught my attention as it was a little bunny in a traditional new year outfit. I asked A Xiang where did they purchase those decorations and he immediately contacted his supervisor to find out for my wife and I. Not only was the food and environment of Haidilao was great, it is employee like A Xiang that make us keep going back to this hot pot location. After we finish our meal and paid, A Xiang actually gifted us a decoration that my wife and I was asking about. This type of customer service and employee makes a great impact to client experiences. Thank you!
Popo
Can't give enough praises to Andrew. Everything was perfect thanks to his mastery over the service. 5 stars!

Perfect place for a fun birthday dinner. Thanks for the amazing service, Aida.

Our server Amy did an absolutely wonderful job serving my family and I our delicious dinner.
Thank you Amy and Happy New Year!
LJ With no K
Absolutely excellent customer service. From the woman at the door, all the way to the server and what I suspect was the manager. Everything we at was fantastic. We ended up ordering too much spicy food and our server helped skim off some of it for us. Can't wait to go back.
Don Huang
I cannot comment on price in this review as I was a guest and did not seen the check. Reservation strongly recommended as it's not a in and out type of restaurant might Not be what you want when you are in tight schedule. Quality of good is high for hotpot. They came in small portion so you can sample more varieties. I recommend get at least 4+ friends to enjoy family style. As you can tell from photo you have choice of 4 soup base. Ask server for ice cream it's a sweet finish. ordering the hand pull Noodle gives you a noodle pulling show. Free Face change performance upclose is interesting if you haven't seen it before. Restroom was very clean and with amenities toothbrush comb mouthwash hair gel wetwipe etc. Didn't use the waiting area or other features but they were packed on a Friday night. Free snacks while you wait.

Haidilao service always goes above and beyond - would definitely recommend celebrating a birthday here. Our host Leo was incredible, thank you for creating a memorable experience.
Jonathan McHugh
Came here last week since my wife has been craving it, and its been a while, cause y'know...2020 and all. Haidilao proved they can actually do this during a pandemic, but how well... That depends on how much you want what they have.
You HAVE TO GET THERE EARLY if you want to be seated timely. Period. Especially outside. Indoors (25% capacity) you may have better luck. If you get there after 6pm, good luck! You scan a code, get your number, and then one table out, one table in. And since its hot pot, that can take HOURS. We got in right at 6, and still waited 45 mins.
The outdoor seating was ok, they had heaters all around to keep it cozy. The actual pots on the mobile machines were wayyy too small though. And obviously, do not expect the same visitor experience they are known for here, that's all out the window mostly with a few exceptions ill get to.
The food. So, I think Covid creating the situation we are in, has now made me realize that half of the $$$$ you pay to eat here was in the experience itself. With that gone, you come to find out the prices on food is WAY overpriced for the quality and what you get. Everything now comes in sealed boxes, and its just not the same. Combine that with a small pot thats tough to fit what you want, and it becomes a meh food time. We ended up taking the rest home after being filled by veggies (the meat takes longer to come out). It was all tasty, but not Haidilao tasty. That one service point i mentioned earlier came when my wife wanted to take a soup base home after I had already paid. The waiter had forgotten that, and gave it to us for free.
Ill add that yes, the bathrooms upstairs are open, and you will most likely need them if you do not have that famous iron stomach regulars here do. I went twice while I was here and there would've been a third time if we stayed and finished. Also that may be down to the quality of food again.
My bill was $207 dollars for 2 people. Was it worth it? No. If there wasn't a pandemic, would I pay that price again to go back to what I remember here? Yes, and I hope that day comes. Until then, I wish you luck Haidilao, I will not be returning.
Mary Li
Excellent customer service. Long was our server - super attentive and walked us through the ordering process. Facilities are great very kid friendly!
Eunice Chang
This place has been consistently wonderful
The food the wait staff the ambiance is so pleasing on each visit.
They did run out of spoons at a sauce station.
Bailin Li
Very authentic Chinese hotpot. The environment fantastic and clean. Great experience with waitress Yunna. Very passionate and great hospitality with customers.
Stanley Kong
The service is top-notch, but the wait is a bit much considering the food is not that out of the ordinary. The atmosphere is also something to rave about, especially of the complimentary services offered, the amenities in the bathroom, the mask changing show, etc. Definitely would recommend to visit at least once.
Chelsea Galicia
Amazing experience!! Our waiter, Long, was great and made our experience even better! Will be recommending to friends.
Gabriela Piatek
Our server Ex was so friendly and kind!! He explained everything and gave his recommendations which were all extremely helpful. And he made my friend feel extra special for his birthday!
Gabriel Campoy
Aida the waitress, was so kind, so accommodating for a large birthday group. Would highly recommend coming back. Yummy hot pot.

We was at this nice hotpot restaurent called Haidilao Hotpot in Flushing Queens NYC. New comers to hotpot this restaurant they will help you and explain how to mix ingredients. Carrie was my waiter for the night and she was awesome she was responsive when ordering extra items will be going back again.
Eric Chan
Great food, great service from 100% of the staff there. Best hot pot in the city. Plus, comes with free ice cream!

It’s a very nice dine in experience. Our waiters: Sean, Ping Ping, Carrie, David, are very considerate, responsive and sweet. They introduced the sanitization procedures for us patiently. We were very comfortable with the settings and the meal. Would recommend to anyone!
Kevin Luu (RadPlaysRBLX)
The place is terrific, including the waiting room & service. There's a variety of meats & etc to choose from, and you can get hand-pulled noodles by a guy dancing w/ it for $4. Also, it is a calming atmosphere with many features within each table, including a robot that comes around with food. Like the place itself, even the bathrooms are outstanding; in stalls, they have seat cleaners right after usage. Overall, it's a great place to sit down, talk & enjoy the place as a whole. Just a little extra, the waiting room supplies free phonecase replacement, refreshments & snacks, and even nails. Also, they have you wear an "apron" in case of any accidental spillage on yourself, and they give some other things before & after eating.
Lucy Du
As a hotpot lover, this place is a bit like an amusement park. You come to have an amazing experience: plenty of new things to discover and try out and you get some quality hotpot at the end. Must say I was not expecting for the food to be so fresh and the options so plenty. Service is also great. Overall a great dining experience for flushing. Also just FYI, feminine products here are free in the restroom. Something the US government can learn from honestly.
Kent Nguyen
Staffs super friendly, soupbase delicious, meat and vegetables fresh.
Restroom is A+++. Perfect Hotpot place!!!!Recommend

been here 50 times..
always had great experience..
but today, our server Andrew. he's the star of the night.
David Chiu
Semi automated hot pot. Good variety. Clean. Good service. Our server was Andrew. He was excellent.
Morgan H
A friend told us about this place and we love hotpot, so we managed to grab a weekend reservation and check it out! First of all, the seating system is extremely smooth if you have a reservation. We walked in, got a piece of paper, walked through the waiting room, and sat down to eat in less than 5 mins. However, if we did have to wait, the waiting room is crazy! It has a bunch of snacks and a kiddy play area and mario kart. I wouldn't have been too bummed to wait there. Once we got in, our waiter Andrew was super on point. Extremely helpful, always at our table to check if we needed anything, great at explaining the menu and answering questions. The entire staff was very polite. The food came rolling out as soon as we ordered it on the tablet. The "dancing noodle" was fun. The broths/food were all absolutely delicious. The bathrooms were amped up to the max(bidets, perfume, toothbrushes, you name it). There was free soft serve ice cream at the end that may have been the creamiest ice cream I ever had. And all super affordable. Also- my clothes didn't smell AT ALL. Andrew was right, the place has amazing ventilation(plus I tried that bathroom perfume). I usually leave hotpot reaking of meat. If you were worried about smell, you can get a bag for your coat and also can wear an apron for any potential spills. Thanks Andrew and Haidilao! (:
Yan Yi Lam
Huge shout out to Ping Ping for providing excellent service today. She gave us free gift a super cute balloon on Valentine’s Day and snack when we leave. The food and service here is way above average!
Bonnie
Haidilao - 8/10
The quality of haidilao in NYC is pretty similar to the haidilao in China. Their tomato broth is their top tier broth and is second to the dolar shop’s silver exquisite broth. The quality here is impeccable as always and the meats are pretty fresh. I would say it is definitely worth a visit and one of the best hotpots in NYC but definitely on the more expensive side.
Mrs Dong
Had my bday party there, everyone loves it, including my 3 years old! Our server olina is awesome!
JInglin Tao
Mr. Long is the nicest waiter we’ve ever had and everything is perfect. Definitely recommend for families and couples.

I love this place, my second time here in the states and Ada was our server, she was the best!!! Sooo considerate and she speaks both languages so my bf who is American and I were both very happy with everything
Sean Rourke
Had a great experience at Haidilao. My wife and I took my mother-in-law here for her first hot pot experience and it really set the bar high for quality of food and quality of service.
Ada was our server and she was great. She was helpful and attentive to our needs, Regularly keeping our table clear of empty plates but at the same time giving us space to do our own thing. 10/10 on the service here, will be returning again.
daniel shimonov
Amazing!!!! God bless them. I will never eat anywhere else. Best food ever. They take care of you, offer free desserts, free ice cream, thier soups come in spice free and hella spicy. You can change your own spice. Thier bathrooms are super clean and stacked.
Katherine Ly
Andrew was our server tonight and he is just incredible! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. He never made us feel like we were asking for too much and even gave us pointers on the best ways to eat certain foods. My whole group agreed that we’d love to see him every time we visit!
Nathy A
What a great spot and the service from server Long was sooo good. It was a great experience! Even someone who never had hot pot would have a good time here.

I always enjoy to have a hot pot here, it’s never disappoint me whenever I come. The quality of the food is great and very fresh , clean environment and the service is the best. Today, I’m here with my parents, we are party of 4, and our waitress Karina is second to none server. She provide a fantastic service. She gave great attention and support from beginning to end of our time there. She was really informed and went the extra mile at every stage. It is another great time here.
Mafe Pazos
I have never had a more positive and frankly magical dining experience! The food was incredibly delicious and beautifully presented. And the service was SUPREME! Truly felt like Michelin star quality service. Our server Andrew was outstanding, so patient, thorough and caring to all our needs. He truly made the already incredible experience that much more amazing! I am obsessed with this place and will definitely come again and again!!!

I had a fantastic experience here for the first time today! The place is very well organized and clean. It is also very convenient as you order what you want from an iPad. There are many different kind of food to choose from and the meats are very delicious and tasty. I also really like how they put instructions for how to make popular sauces. Waiters are very helpful and friendly! You definitely have to come at least once if you haven’t. I’m definitely coming back with other friends and families in the future. Overall it is a very good and authentic hotpot place that’s unique from other places.
Nini C
Haidilao service is always the best, our server Olina was wonderful. She helped us make pre dinner soups with the tomato soup base and helped us make an extra sauce for our shrimp paste as well. She checked in with us if we needed any help or anything all the time.
Amy Huang
Food was delicious and fresh. Service was phenomenal. I don’t particularly like hotpot however ANDREW made us feel like royalties. Even though he had multiple tables to wait on, he PEELED our shrimps for us. Oh and can’t forget about you, Mr. Dancing Noodle Man! You looked tired as heck but you still performed gracefully for us 🤣. Thank you so much for your service! If y’all don’t like hotpot or don’t think it’s worth it, come for ANDREW. He’ll make you change your mind.

First time at haidilao and had an amazing time. Cozy setting and quality ingredients worth the price. Above all the attention to service was top notch, our server Karina dropped by often to check up on us and was incredibly thoughtful. She easily resolved small inconveniences and took into consideration us coming from Brooklyn; giving us a packaged soup sample to go in case we were craving haidilao at home. 5/5
Chloe Li
This is what you called service!!! Amazing experience, amazing staffs, amazing food!
We have a group of four with a baby, got our seat right away considering we did make a reservation. Our favorites soup base is green pepper soup, it's spicy and refreshing. They have a sauce bar with many varieties of sauces and fruits. Our server is Pricilla and Exdeus, both are extremely nice, basically anything you can think of, their server will get it ready before you even mention it. Bathroom are sparkling clean, they have high end perfumes ready for you if you wants it. Kids playground has a surveillance that’s connected to your table’s iPad, you can check on your kids anytime. There are so many great details about their services and environment that are so thoughtful, i will definitely go back and bring friends there.
Nurul Huq
Haidilao is the absolute best hotpot in town, but what’s even better is David’s service and hospitality. Immediately after sitting down David came over and went through the entire menu with us and suggested some options, all of which were absolutely delicious. David was attentive, catering to our every need, he even offered ice cream at the end to satisfy our sweet tooth. Chen put on a mesmerizing performance with his noodle dance, we enjoyed every moment. We will be coming back time and time again! Thank you!
Helen Zhao
Cheap, delicious hot pot. Restaurant is super organized, staff is quick and attentive. Food comes out fast, meat & vegetables were both very fresh.
Spencer Kondak
My favorite hotpot place in New York, worth the trip!! Hands down the best service and staff, Andrew and lily were great! Get the tomato broth!
Rosie Lu
The service at Haidilao is legendary for a reason. Yes the wait is pretty horrible (I waited 45 min for a table of 5 on a Friday night) but at least it’s in a comfortable waiting room area with snacks and games to satisfy you while you wait! And honestly I think the wait is worth it. I was so amazed by the service, everybody got a little ziploc bag to put their face mask in, people with glasses got wipes for them, people with long hair got hair ties, everybody had the option of getting an apron (of course!), the table had outlets to charge your phone, and ordering was super easy to do via a tablet. The bathroom also has soooo many amenities omg more than I ever thought I would need but it was amazing. The best part is probably the heated toilet seats/bidet, free pads and tampons, and YSL perfume you can spritz on yourself. Anyways, time to talk about the important stuff — food. The sauce bar was a bit small but it makes sense given that the dining area isn’t enormous. I really liked that they included “recipes” for example sauces you can make. The food itself was solid! Not mind-blowing or incredibly unique but not bad either. There’s a decent amount to choose from on the menu but not an overwhelming amount. I also got the thai iced tea drink and that was really good. The price was fair too, I think you definitely get a good deal considering how incredible the service is. Overall, would definitely recommend Haidilao to someone who wants a next level hot pot experience!
Marilyn Wan
First hot pot experience in NY. I love that they give aprons!
Our server MoGu was awesome and showed us the ropes. Bonus: dancing noodles!

This was one of the best restaurants I've been to. The service was phenomenal. The waiting area has snacks, drinks, and origami paper to bide your time even for the short amount that I had to. They give you aprons which is nice and you can get free appetizers for yourself as you wait for the food. The ordering is done on a tablet. They provide bags for face masks. There is plenty of space to place your trays so you can order plenty of food and eat it at your own pace. The bathrooms were stocked with products for you to use, even shaving cream and a razor. A little (very little) pricey compared to what I would usially get, but well worth it in my opinion. I truly loved eating here.

Awesome awesome nyc hotpot! They got clean environment and the best service. Andrew and Leo are the best! It was a decent five star dinner.

This was truly one of best customer service experienced I have ever experienced in my life - and totally unexpectedly!!
I have 2 words: Heated toilets.
Separately, we came for my best friend’s birthday. And we didn’t make any plans to have any type of decorations. But they surprised us at the table with a really cute birthday setup. And they even gave her a small gift!! They were incredibly attentive to all of our needs - for example, we got excited and put in an entire plate of rice cakes right when it arrived. They noticed later that we seemed to be missing an order of rice cake and proactively brought us another one, even though we had actually already eaten it.
It’s so many small things - like how they give you aprons to not get your clothes dirty; how they provide floss after the meal; how they have a bathroom stocked with freshen-me-ups like disposable toothbrushes. AMAZING.

Had a great time here. Annie’s service is absolutely one of the best. Would love to come again.

Haidilao definitely is one of my favorite hot pot place in NY!
We were here for a birthday celebration and it was an amazing experience! This place is very nice, clean, and the staff goes above and beyond to make the visit comfortable and easy! The food was as amazing as the service. The meats are good quality and seafood are fresh. We were served by Ada who were always attentive and provided outstanding services.
Will definitely come back again! Definitely give 6/5 stars and recommend waitress Ada to everyone I know.

It was my first time eating here and wow!! My whole experience was amazing!! My server, Amy, was the BEST!! Our whole table was so well cared for throughout the night, and she made us feel so comfortable. On top of that, the food was AMAZING. We will definitely be returning!!

This place lives up to the rave reviews. Quality, fresh food and amazing service!
There is a little bar area to get sauces, fruit, dessert, and appetizers before you sit for the meal. Make sure you don't get too much so you don't fill up for the good stuff.
The soup bases come in an array of options, spicy to non spicy, and costs increase incrementally for more types. You can get up to 4 kinds of soup bases in one pot. The spicy ones are no joke, but they will adjust for you if needed. The tomato soup base is surprisingly fresh and delicious, and you can even drink the soup as an appetizer.
Food wise, everything is delicious. We ordered a few of the variety plates to try multiple things, and also had a banana crepe and kiwi drink. Crepes are freshly made, came out piping hot. The kiwi drink was so refreshing with fresh fruit in it.
Highly recommend making a reservation, but if you have to wait, they have a waiting area with charging stations and free drinks until you can be seated.

Best hotpot in Flushing! Great service from Jieke, he is there whenever I needed something, fast service and nice suggestions on foods! Went on Halloweens day, great costume from Jieke and many others too.
Yuji Horimoto
Really good quality hot pot. Too bad the guy making the dancing noodles wasn't all too happy about it 🤣 …
Ray Zhou
Same good food but the service doesn’t live up to the Haidilao reputation, they seemed short on waiters or something, they didn’t check on us or refill our water at all
Justin Kwok
Amazing food and environment, Long was a great server. Definitely will come back!
Isabelle Tran
Finally experienced the famous Haidilao hot pot and their exceptional service. I have not been so pleased with their service team, well done to this company.
Food is average and not too expensive. But they impress with the creative ways to make your visit memorable such as dancing while making noodles, robot server, etc

My sister and I was in NY for the weekend and wanted hotpot. After researching for the highest rated hotpot restaurant in Flushing, we decided to try Haidilao Hotpot.
The restaurant did not disappoint and exceeded our expectations. The beef and shrimp was extremely fresh, and the service was stellar.
David C. and Ada served us both and were extremely helpful in teaching us how to order and cook the meal. David C. always stood by tentatively to check our table and refill our broths. Not only that, he graciously cooked the dancing shrimp for us upon our request and provided us complimentary treats such as ice cream and an appetizer soup bowl.
Ada was also extremely helpful with letting us know what ingredients were available and constantly clearing the dirty dishes on our table. She demonstrated excellent teamwork with David to brainstorm ideas for our meal.
Both of the wait staff uphold the restaurant’s reputation of having quality service.
The only con would be that the restaurant did not have certain ingredients that are common to hotpot available such as “watercress” and “mussels”. We hope that the restaurant will include these in their meals!
Overall, it was an excellent and delicious.
FYI, the handmade noodle performance was the exact entertainment to top the meal off.

This is one of the best hot pot places I've ever been. 15/10 would recommend to everyone interested in hot pot. Not only is the food amazing, the service is out of this world.
Here's what to expect:
- be prepared to wait at least an hour. Most of the time the wait is 2 hours, but for reference: I went on a weekday for dinner and my wait was 1:15.
- While you're waiting, you can have some of their free chips, fruits, hot herbal tea, plain cold tea, fruit smoothie or lemon water.
- there's also two massage chairs in the upstairs waiting lounge, a playpen for children AND a nail technician for anyone to get their manicures done while waiting.
- when we were seated, our server Andrew was immensely helpful. He explained everything in detail, he asked if we needed more of anything and he even got some of the self-serve items for us.
- I highly recommend getting any of the fatty beef, the dancing noodles (yes a guy literally comes to perform and hand-stretch the noodles) and fish ball with roe. MOST OF ALL, get the fried sticky buns. I haven't had a sticky bun that was perfectly fried since Macau.
There's just so many good things to say about this place that I might not even have enough room, but those were definitely the highlights. Omg I almost forgot about the robot who brings your orders!
I can't wait to bring more family and friends to this place.

First time here since Covid, impressed with the service and quality of food.
This would be considered on the higher end of the pricing.
Definitely recommended for any and all hot pot fans.
Thank you again for the great service Carrie!

World best service mala hotpot from China newly opened in Flushing New York. They offer many type of soup, We tried tomato soup, original mala soup, pork bone soup and green peppers soup (not recommended). All food are fresh and premium. The service is best of the best, they provide massage chair, snacks, Xbox, board game etc. while you are waiting. The restaurant is quite big and they offer only 100 tables per meal (lunch and dinner) so the waiting time is not that long. Highly recommended to check out this restaurant.
Sulina Chen
One of the top hotpot spots that come to mind when I have hp craving. Their buffet item 紫米粥 is soo good.
Celeste Zhang
Very nice! Good atmosphere and staff were also very nice and attentive. The food is really some of the best hotpot I have ever had
Oscar Romero

Our experience here today is fantastic, the food is fresh and tasty as always! The service from our servant Karina is awesome. She is very patient with our order and has been a great help all the way along to satisfy our requests! We will definitely visit here again and hopefully meet Karina again for her great service!
Charlene Garcia
One of the best dining experiences I've had with such an affordable place. The servers, Andrew and Shiao, were amazing and took the time to explain everything thoroughly and keep it all well organized for us. The dining area was clean, the robot that delivered our sides needs to come home with me, and the food was great! I'll come here way more and take more friends out here with me! Thank you all so much for a place like this.

Excellent dining experience at Haidilao. Clean environment, attentive staff, and comfortable seating. Maggie was our server for the evening, and she was welcoming and helpful to any questions we had about the menu and ordering especially because it was our first time. She also offered me a hair tie shortly after we sat down, which I found most considerate. In most hotpot restaurants, I often leave with the scent of food lingering on my clothing, but not here which goes to show that the ventilation is also quite efficient. I loved that you can hear one another across the table making this a great place for friends and family to gather for a filling meal at reasonable prices. Overall, would highly recommend and will visit again! :)
Sher k
It was amazing me and my group were treated with the utmost respect and care shoutout to our server and helper Andrew he did a great job will be coming back
stan yu
Good price for the food and service. A lot of little things add up here to make this place unique. First, the waiting area has mahjong, complimentary fruit juices and other games. The bathrooms have toothbrushes, razors etc... very clean environment and the staff is very attentive. The broths were just ok nothing too special and the dipping sauce selection is perfect 👌🏼
Randi Schroeder
Favorite hot pot spot! Food is amazing. Service is top notch. We’ve always had amazing waiters but our last visit we had Andrew and YY and they were so sweet and very attentive. Highly recommend!!
Itamar Zik
The hot pot was excellent! Amazing service too. Our server Ada helped us out and made some sauce for us. Would highly reccomend!
Ramea Balachanthiran
No words to describe this amazing spot. The food was not only DELICIOUS but wow the staff is AMAZING!!! Super friendly and accommodating going above and beyond, I felt so at home they treated us so well over there. Needless to say very clean atmosphere. Great spot to go for occasions, family dinner or even a hangout. This is not a spot to overlook. Definitely worth coming here. I would so come here again with friends and family!!!

Stephen Poon
Great experience for my daughter’s 2 yr old birthday! Food was great as usual and the service was spectacular. Amy and Ada took care of our party and especially our kiddos with ice cream, fruit, and an energetic birthday song performance. Wow wow for Amy and Ada! Thank you two for my daughter’s bday memories!
Jayanne Kayla
David and Jolin were the absolute best servers. As first timers they made our experience soooo memorable and just amazing. My husband and I left so unbelievably happy. The whole team was amazing. Beautiful establishment. THIS IS A 5 STAR DINING EXPERIENCE. EXTREMELY FRESH FOOD !!!! CANT wait to come back. Love haidilaooo❤❤
Jessie Xie
It is a great experience. The waiter who named Alex is so nice. I’m sure we’ll come back again.😄😄 …
afonso zhan
One of the best restaurants here. Probably the best customer service and bathrooms in all of Flushing and the surrounding areas. Also loved the complimentary ice cream and fruits!
Erik Hanzlick
Amy and Ada provided the most wonderful experience. I've never received such high quality attention. Get the dancing noodle and come on a birthday!
kiki patel
The food and customer service was top tier here but i want to specifically mention their bathrooms. They had bidets, heated freaking toilet seats, dior perfume, toothbrushes, and even makeup wipes in their bathroom. It was so slay. Plz go there 🙏 i would pay all that money again in a blink just to go to their bathroom 😍 …
Qi Ting Liu
Look out for Long. He is friendly and looks out for his customers
Carrie Chen
The food is amazing! One of the best hotpot in the city! They help us celebrate the birthday of our friends! David have the best service. We really like it!
NIKITA DEUJA

I went to Hai Di Lao for the first time and had a wonderful experience last night just like how many other reviews described it.
We made a reservation for 6 and was seated promptly when we all arrived. Since I was bringing my 5 month old baby, they made sure to find an arrangement that can accommodate the sleeping baby.
The waitress patiently explained to us how to order since it was our first time and were always there to serve us whenever we seemed to need help. Food was served quickly and any empty plates were also removed quickly.
When my baby woke up from her nap in the stroller and we had to carry her to calm her, the waitress brought out a bassinet for my daughter to sleep and play in. When we mentioned it was the baby's 5 months' "birthday", they surprised us with a song and a toy for the baby just as we finished dinner.
PS: We also witnessed an accident with a nearby table. One of the male patrons was choking and a waiter immediately performed the Heimlich maneuver until the food was dislodged. They handled the entire incident professionally and calmly even though they mentioned later on that they were also very frightened. Truly 5 star service!
Yuchen Li
The service here is outstanding, Amy and Ada respond quickly to the demand of the customers. Would recommend anyone to give this place a try, late dinner time usually has a lower wait time.
Angela Huang
I had a great time there! I‘ve been there a few times prior but this time I went the service was incredible. My waitress was named Olina and she was super friendly. She engaged in comfortable small talk and made a really delicious soy sauce based dipping sauce for us. I hope she can be our waiter again next time!
Jefferson Mar
We had a wonderful night, with my family here, celebrating Father’s Day. The service was excellent. This is definitely one of the best Hot Pot restaurants in town!
There are different places to sit while waiting for your table, including a lounge and game area. Many refreshments and goodies complimentary!
Our waiter and waitress was David and Ada. Their service was spectacular! The food service and atmosphere was amazing. The beef was juicy and delicious. We ordered the 4 different stocks and each one was uniquely made and delicious .No matter what you choose to have you cannot go wrong with anything on this menu. The drinks are also amazing! I definitely recommend to all. Whether you are looking for a date night or a night to celebrate this is the place to go!
The staff is truly there to provide a great and relaxing experience! They were on top of everything and always accommodating to us. All in all we had an amazing time and give this place a try!!!
Riya Headley
Thank you so much Long! Amazing service and food! Definitely coming again with friends!
Tahmid Hasan
Hands down best hotpot experience i've ever had. Alex, our server, was the best. Super attentive, super prompt, the whole nine yards.
Adam Kim
First time at here even though I've seen it for years... I regret not coming sooner. Food is fresh and the service is very very good. Leo was my waiter and he was 200% why my experience was great. Forgot to write that comment card so I hope this gets to management.
Anastasiya Zolotova
This place is like a well oiled machine. Service is incredibly on point. They even have scrunchies for your hair. 🥺 Broth is good and I loved the ice cream. One thing they can fix is the wasteful plastic that comes with every single item , I know they stated its post pandemic protocols but its so many and not eco friendly. I think they can go back to regular plates now.
Eric Shen
Amazing experience! Long was the best waiter! He let me be a fairy 🧚♀️ …
Cyril Tan
My group had a great time at Hai Di Lao. The ambiance and sauce bar was amazing! Not to mention the excellent service as well, Ada was a wonderful server!
Coffee Su
Visited Haidilao for x-mas dinner. Although there were a lot of people on Christmas, but Ada constantly check in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. We were satisfied with the service and food.
Vivian Tian
Ingredients seemed very fresh, easy ordering experience from the tablets. The waiters are friendly and provided cover for your coats and aprons.
We went there during COVID, so the buffet sauce bar was closed and the utensils are mostly disposable. I’m sure it’s not as nice as the regular plates, bowls, spoons but its totally understandable. They have super long chopsticks which I like, so you can use them to pick up food from the pot.
It seemed they only have big pot, not individual pots like some other places.
A special mention of the restroom. Mouth wash, tooth brush, tooth paste, tooth pick... and perfume? I was undergoing orthodontics treatment with braces so I especially appreciated these amenities after a meal.
