Tasty Pot

Visited during their soft opening and although it took a long time to get the food, the owner/manager went above and beyond to take care of us. We didn't expect anything as it was their soft opening but the staff attentiveness went far. Their hot pots are similar to boiling point but the portions felt bigger. I also loved that you can customize the spicy level of the taiwanese spicy unlike boiling point. If you are feeling like hot pot this place hits the spot.

Tasty pot is a relatively new Taiwanese hot pot (individual sized hot pot) restaurant in downtown Alhambra. We came on an early Sunday, and it was pretty empty around 5pm. But by the time we left, it was packed! There are 9 different soup bases for you to choose from. And we opted for Taiwanese supreme spicy hot soup and Thai flavor hot soup. What impressed me the most was their large intestine, it was not gamy at all but delicious! Pros: 1. New and clean. 2. The portions. Compared to other Taiwanese hot pot restaurants, they seem to offer more ingredients/food in the pot. And, the quality is slightly better. Cons: 1. On the pricier side. (A few bucks more than BP) 2. Taiwanese supreme spicy hot soup wasn't spicy at all. Most importantly, it was not very authentic. Some flavors were def missing in the soup. 3. I probably like the dipping sauces from BP better. It doesn't mean their sauces are bad, just they can be better. Service was good and bad. The female staff who had a pony tail w

My boyfriend and I came here on a Friday night around 8pm and the wait was like 5 minutes. We shared the beef hot soup (#1). The broth tasted like satay spices and it got a bit salty towards the end. Overall, it was pretty good. We got extra vermicelli & taro for toppings. With the protein and veggies the soup already came with, we were both pretty full and glad we just shared one. The bowl/pot wasn't deep enough so it didn't fit much broth. The staff came by and refilled the broth a few times so I appreciated that. I would like to come again and try their other broths. We also tried their popcorn chicken and it was pretty delicious. ????????
