Kung Fu Hot Pot Newark NJ

My new favorite hotpot place. Honestly, this is the most affordable hotpot restaurant I have ever been too. They also have large sized tables that offer lots of room. We ordered the all you can eat hotpot for $24 per person. It was perfect! 🥰 Yes, you are sacrificing some of the normal service options you get from other hotpot places, like the explanation and lesson on cooking, but for the price, I am good! 👍🏿 You will never feel like you didn't get enough. It's mostly a "figure it out yourself" kind of place, but they will help if you ask. Honestly, I appreciated the hands-off approach with the room to go up and get all the hotpot broth items on your own. You also keep the tablet and can add more items, if you need it. I will definitely be back with my own BYOB next time. The drink options are the only thing I wouldn't mind an improvement on. They only offer cans of soda you get yourself. My kids loved it, but I don't like soda. I can deal with that for all the other bonus. Tips for others: you go to the back to get all your own broth seasoning, flavor items, and utensils; most of the items in the back are labeled but ask if you aren't sure; broth is also unlimited and they come around offering fill-ups; and bring the tablet up with you to pay the bill.

This is the best hot pot place I've ever been!! There's so many type of meat, drinks, sea foods and veggies! And soup was amazing! My favorite is Mild spicy soup :)

Food was great! I was able to make a very tasty broth and was happy with the various fresh veggie, seafood, and meat options! 3 stars because some staff had poor customer service and weren’t accommodating to anyone new to hot pot. They didn’t explain the sauce bar. I had to ask about it based on pics I’ve seen online. Had no idea we had to bring the iPad to the front to pay. The guy at the front demanded us not to “skip” the tip while we paid. Very rude bc a tip is never obligated, and we always tip so his tone was unnecessary. He overall seemed like he didn’t want to be there. I recommend this place based on the food options alone.
