hot and tasty

Lush food and fab attentive service. Had set menu B and enjoyed every bite. Fab portion size divided between 3, but would have been ample for 4. Also fab waitress who dealt brilliantly with out splitting the bill and business receipts requests.

10/10 stars here! As a south east asian, I have been missing THE authentic Szechuan hotpot since I moved to England. Thank goodness I checked this place on my work trip to Birmingham. THE best Szechuan spicy mala hotpot I have ever had in the UK! Plus only £22 for the whole pot! I am a small eater + solo traveller so it’s enough for 2 meals for me. You can also choose 8 ingredients quality is top notch, all inclusive in £22. How amazing that is! I am a fan of spicy food, so I chose Medium degree and it’s just the right one for me I am a Nando’s XX Vusa Hot person for reference. P.S. Excuse my photo, I literally only realised I should take a photo at half point! So you can see the portion size! Highly recommended place!!!

After a long 6 hour trip on the coach to Birmingham. My friend and I decided we fancied some Chinese food. It was late so many places were closing and didn’t want to travel far as we were travelling all day. We Decided to come here. The staff were nice and took our order swiftly. The food was lovely and came quick. They have one of the best Satay Sauces I’ve ever had.

The place is a hidden gem, offering all you can eat hot pot for £20.99. Plus, it's right outside the New Street Station / Grand Central mall. Unlike other places, there's no minium people that needs to be present to be eligible for the all you can eat. Also there's a good variety of sea food in addition to the tradition beef and lamb rolls. However, the place is lacking in the sauce department. Nevertheless, the service is great.

Bit or a delay with getting my order but the food was certainly worth waiting for. Steaming hot mains and sides with great portions too. Will definitely be ordering again.

One of the best hot pot places I've been to since I lived in Taiwan. The Hot Pot is a set price, all you can eat and even has self-service which is unusual for hot pot places. Waiting staff is very friendly and always eager to help. Definitely worth a visit and nice for bigger groups too.

Had my dinner hotpot there. Poor service! Even I just ask for a glass of tap water, the waitress boss? refused and went back to kitchen. Hotpot is “all you can eat”, however there is just a small corner to place food and never refill, like kitchen waste… I tried to ask them to refill some noodles, they said “that’s all, we will not refill”. So, “all you can eat” is the double meaning here… all you can eat … with this corner.

I had the hotpot buffet and it was really really good. Tasted like hotpot's I've had in China. Definitely recommend and will hopefully be back again!

Edited: Recommend going in the evening as during the day they seem to have less skilled chefs working and the usual dishes we like to order are a little different to how we like them. My absolute favourite authentic Chinese restaurant in the UK! A proper hidden gem of Birmingham. The authenticity does mean yes, you might have to put up with Eastern rather than Western service, but the food is worth it, and the star of the show. Go there with that in mind and it's hard to be disappointed. Portions are huge, relatively consistent, great variety of ingredients and whenever if I have the 'same' dishes elsewhere I always end up saying "Not as good as Tasty Restaurant"! Top tips: - Bring cash - yes it's mildy annoying, but there's ATMs at the station opposite and the signs are clear. - Be aware there are 2 menus for English and Chinese diners, like all very good authentic restaurants in UK/US/Aus/Canada. The Chinese menu is more adventurous has photos and absolutely worth trying. - Largely used to catering to East and South East Asians, so don't take the service personally - it's cultural! - Salted egg yolk pumpkin, water-boiled fish/fish boiled in spicy chillies, stuffed aubergines, spicy lamb leg, cold mung bean noodles, fragrant spicy crab, even frogs legs. Not all Sichuan spicy but mostly! I dream about these when not in Birmingham.
