5 POT

So good and staff was so friendly

This is like the ramen version of Mongolian bbq. With to s of options, there’s something for everyone - vegetarian, meat, fish, etc. Fast service and tasty.

Nice small hot pot buffet styles selections of self customize items and about 4 to 5 choices of base for the soup. I recommend original (mild spicy although not spicy at all) and the ice tea self served is pretty decent, the mushrooms, fish balls, and veggies are yummy, if you like it cooked til its quite soft. I prefer a little crunch to my vegetables not that mushy for me. Very friendly service and overall a nice spot to try. The portion size are very fulfilling and massive at about $15.99 I believe, a bit pricey than other hot pot spots. It's Pasadena so mostly paid parking unless you park across the street in free lot near Target or some street parking that are 1 or 2 hours max.

Create your own hot pot bowl and they'll cook it. 15.99/lb and choice of broth style. They give you huge bowls so it's actually tons of food and easy to share. Great new spot and definitely will come back!

Well, I wasn't expecting much because 5 Pot is located in Pasadena. I've never had this style of mini hot pot before. Was randomly craving for some after a long break from it. The place sure does live up to its good reviews. You just come in, pick the veggies, meats, and noodles you want, then weigh and pay. I bought a huge pot and it was worth every penny. All the ingredients tastes fresh and went well together. I especially recommend their tomato broth!

Hits the spot and when something hits the spot you wanna come back and this is one of the places that makes me want to come back

Outstanding Hot Pot, especially the broth and quality of meat and veggies. Highly recommend!
