My Grill'n Pot - Arcadia

Family and I walked in, it was empty except for two people sitting in a far desk talking to each other. I thought they were customers at first so I didn 't pay much attention to them. Waited for a bit until we decided to poke our head in the kitchen and get the staff 's attention. He yelled at the other guy at the table for something, forgot what and then realized it was staff too. The two staff talking at the table didn 't even know we were here. Anyway... You order from a tablet and it has English and Chinese. Small selection of items, but I thought most of the portions were decent. Big plate of bean thread noodles and the thick noodles. The napa cabbage weren 't cut into smaller pieces and I had to break them up into small pieces by hand. They really should cut them into quarters at least because each leaf was too big. Beef slices could be cut into smaller slices too. Bone broth soup was good.I ordered spinach as well and after about five or ten mins of already eating, they told us they ran out of spinach. Like really? The staff talking to each other could 've gone out to buy some at least, but no they were busy talking and doing their online math homework instead to bother helping. This isn 't a college study and homework session place.The beef balls and cheese fish balls were too small portion. Booth seat was not as comfortable. Back rest too far from table and you kind of just slide off the edge.The service honestly kind of killed the experience. This place also offers noodle dishes and half grill and half hot pot option. There is also a sauce bar. The sand tea sauce made me chuckle. It 's supposed to be Taiwanese shacha/satay sauce. This place was more Chinese than Taiwanese.

May 2023 No wait for a party of 3 around 5pm on a Friday.Food/Pricing The meat was great quality but everything else was just okay. There were missing pictures from about half of the self ordering menu and no descriptions. The 'Green Vegetables ' came in an oily sauce and fully cooked. The hotpot noodles were smaller than anticipated.Service/Ambiance The sauce containers and some plates weren 't cleaned well. Some sauces and condiments were completely mislabeled. Service was lukewarm and a little slow. It 's a fairly new place so they 're probably still figuring things out.Parking There 's a small parking lot in the back and street parking.

Nice cozy family owned restaurant. They have different food selections aside from hotpot. I would recommend their specialty "Liu-Zhou” screw vermicelli. They also have great to-go lunch menu, spicy rice noodles is one of their most popular orders. This spot is a gem for foodies!! I would tell everyone to give it a try especially on the days you don 't want to wait in line. Customer service is friendly and usually let you enjoy your meal with minimal interruption.

I ate there three times in a week ? I really like itAlready the new boss

Meat just tastes better grilled but I love soup with my meals, so this is the perfect lunch/dinner spot for me. The 1/2 hot pot/grill option only includes the broth so I'd add a basket of veges and a plate of lamb. Voila! My perfect meal that I have to myself and whatever I don't finish, I can take home.Vegetarian options: Plenty to choose fromKid-friendliness: Kid friendly but hot foods so must be carefulParking: Parking is limited and located in the backWheelchair accessibility: Ground floor, no stairsDietary restrictions: You pick and choose your items
