The Pots has been doing all-you-can-eat hot pot in the Sunset since 2008. Guests cook at their own table, choosing from a wide range of broths that includes vegan and low-sodium options, with spice levels adjusted to order. Meat and seafood come through a tablet-based ordering system that sends trays out quickly once an order goes in.
A self-serve greens bar sits alongside a well-stocked sauce station, so vegetables and condiments stay in steady supply through the meal. Dessert gets its own separate area, going beyond the usual soda-and-ice-cream combo with fresh tropical juices, Thai iced tea, churros, and chocolates.
The room leans into the communal side of hot pot — shared pots, drinks, and conversation are part of the draw as much as the food itself.
