Came here for a birthday dinner, and the overall experience was great! There's a conveyer belt in the center that brings out items for hot pot (for which everyone has a personal pot)--mostly seafood, which was fresh. Servers brought out high quality cuts of meat which were grilled/boiled to perfection. Cuts were well marbled and tasted great with the provided sauces. Marinated meats such as the spicy pork were full of flavor as well. There is a snack bar with fruits and desserts that provide much needed refreshment after all the heavy meats. Restaurant was lively and a great place to celebrate a birthday--after dinner, our server provided candles and sang with us, which was really nice. For the price (~$35), I would highly recommend over other kbbq/hot pot combo places! Would come here next time for just kbbq, since we were already too full for hot pot.

they have bbq and hot pot now! I believe adding BBQ was only $5- thats one gallon of gas, worth it!! I don't know where I have been but I went twice this week and I am not sorry. The first time I went there the service was slow and I didn't feel like they were really paying attention but the second time was great! Our service was attentive, came back over and over and the meat quality was very good. I was very happy with the options and the quality- I will be back!

I recently checked out SeaPot and had a great time! The meats were top-notch--tender, flavorful, and really good quality. All the ingredients were super fresh, which made a big difference. I loved the conveyor belt for the sides; it was fun picking out what I wanted, and everything looked and tasted fresh. The sauce selection was fantastic too, with a lot of options to mix and match to your taste. The place was clean and tidy, which always makes the dining experience better. Plus, the service was super quick and efficient, so we never had to wait long for anything. On the downside, it can get pretty loud in there with the music, which made it a bit hard to have a conversation at times. Also, the ventilation could use some improvement since it got a bit smoky inside. Overall, though, SeaPot is an awesome spot for a hotpot meal. Great quality, fresh ingredients, and fast service make it worth a visit. I'll definitely be coming back again.

Stopped in for weekend lunch this past weekend for a solo dining experience and it was as good as always. I went with the spicy miso broth this time and it was good. With hot pot you need good sauces, and their sauce bar has so many choices that you kinda just have to experiment with what flavor profile you want. They also offer sides like spicy cucumber, potato salad, egg rolls, and fruit. All the veggies and other hot pot items comes around on the conveyor belt, so having something to fill your pot is never an issue. The portion sizes of the meats came out really big, and after 4 orders of meat, that's all I needed. The weekend price is $32.99, which allows you access to both the lunch and dinner items. They recently added a new American Wagyu meat option, which is definitely worth the $5 upgrade because it had the most flavor out of all the meats I tried. While the beef toro and angus prime coming being good options, the American wagyu is a whole other level of deliciousness. The service here was quick and prompt. They have a couple of TVs playing sports and whoever had the aux cord that day must've been going through it because it was all Drake, Chris Brown, and Justin Bieber songs lol. The songs were uncensored, so not exactly family friendly. While I appreciate the options you get with the dinner menu, I still think the weekday lunch price still provides the best value for an AYCE.
