They have a nice selection for both the hot pot and BBQ. The interactive cooking experience made it a fun outing, and the staff was attentive and helpful in explaining the options. It was a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of food and the unique dining experience made it worth it. It's a nice spot for couples looking to try something new for lunch or dinner.

Had an awesome time at LaTao. It is AYCE hotpot and you can choose to share or have your personal hot pot. Great variety of different stocks to choose from, from spicy to mild. Quality was definitely there - very delicious, rich and savory broths with tons of choices for ingredients. Portions may be a tad smaller but it helps avoid food waste and you can keep ordering more. Service was excellent and they were very very attentive and patient especially since we had a few first timers in our group. Great place to hang out and just enjoy some good food as a group or family. Note that on weekends you do pay the dinner price but since it is AYCE with the full dinner menu and the ingredients are of great quality it is definitely worth it.

If you're looking for an amazing hot pot/ Korean BBQ experience THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE. Amazing high quality meats, and the broth is full of flavor. The food you cook in it actually tastes like the broth. Delicious all you can eat, great meat, and vegetable selection although i didn't eat any vegetables they definitely had a selection. Very helpful staff really attentive. Overall a great spot 100% would return. If you're reading this review just go here stop giving money to larger kbb spots, and try this place you won't be disappointed

We went for dinner and chose the hot pot only option which seemed more popular. The staff were very friendly and were encouraging us to order more which is rare from an all you can eat place. The meat and vegetable option were pretty decent. Even though we did not go there late they ran out of some options in the middle. Definitely a great experience and food.
