Legendary Hot Pot's continued existence over the years is a testament to the remarkable tolerance of Canadian diners. The quality of food, service, and atmosphere it offers is nothing short of a disservice to authentic Chinese hot pot cuisine. Whoever oversees this establishment ought to reflect deeply on the damage it has caused to the reputation of Chinese culinary traditions.

December 8, 2024

The food, service, and atmosphere were all disappointing. The soup base was so watered down it might as well have been plain boiling water. The server made multiple mistakes and, shockingly, blamed the customers. The restaurant itself felt unclean, and the buffet items appeared as though they had been sitting out for days. If you're craving a quality hot pot experience, I highly recommend HaiDiLao Hot Pot. It’s priced similarly but offers far superior food, service, and ambiance.

The condiment station is very dirty and makes people uncomfortable. There are very few types of condiments available. The all-you-can-eat for two people costs nearly 100 CAD after tips, but the taste is mediocre. I wouldn’t recommend this place.

The food and environment are nice and clean. The service is great. The owner is a couple, they are so friendly and polite. I enjoy the dinner so much. The taste of sesame balls is impressive. You must try!

I like how their broth is made from scratch, so the ingredients are natural, and light. Each round of order is limited to 2 orders to minimize food waste which I appreciate. There are some food that you can go out and grab, but selection is limited. Lots of parking in mall. The servers have good intentions and try to be attentive, but I feel like I was being monitored. Also, the fatty beef was very rough and low quality sadly.

★★★★★

Their ayce hot pot deal is pretty good, priced at $39.99 per person, which includes access to the hot food bar, sauce bar, and a selection of soup bases. Their menu is extensive, offering a wide range of options including seafood, chicken, pork, beef, and lamb. I was happy to spot raw eggs—I thoroughly enjoyed finishing my hot pot with a delicious egg drop soup. The other finds that made me happy was the popping boba at their jelly station. Overall, I highly recommend this spot!

this place has brilliant decor and the atmosphere is great with the music. their new all you can eat menu is amazing, it gives you plenty of time to try tons of things and lots of food options. we got the individual pots but there’s shared ones too, personally i love the tomato broth and the beef they have is amazing. definitely recommend, 10/10

Been meaning to try this spot for a while. Had a great time with my lady and enjoyed the experience. Food was tasty and well presented. Service was challenging with speaking English, but understandable. We enjoyed our time and food. But be careful as it sure adds up as you add various items each costing a price for the meal. So it gets expensive. We dropped $100 for 2 of us having a light dinner.

Was here Dec. 2024. The food station was dirty and BAD service! Basically the guy was angry that every time I tried to order more food.. no thank you whatsoever even after I tipped. AVOID THIS PLACE!!

Me and my girlfriend decided to go try this hot pot place went after skiing. Was really disappointed, soup was bland, and tofu tasted old. Also feel the cuts and plates were not really the cleanest. I was expecting better but would not be visiting again.

Great food and lovely owners. Will return in the future

Went to this restaurant with a few friends around a week ago, the food was so bad, everything tasted really old and funky. The service was awful, as they couldn t even explain the menu properly. One of the imitation crabs we ordered still had plastic on them and was put into a soup. After telling them the situation, they didn t even apologize or do anything about it, instead during the bill, they demanded a tip. Poor service and terrible food overall. This place is a health and safety hazard

My favorite hot pot place in West Vancouver, amazing food, and even better service. Always super courteous and helpful, and the food is delicious. I always late extremely satisfied. Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options Dietary restrictions: Check their menu online, but you got a large range of options and complete customization. Parking: Its got a lot of free parking all around. Kid-friendliness: I think kids would have a lot of fun cooking their food in the pot. But more suitable for 4+ year olds that are raised well and wont try to grab the element or something. Wheelchair accessibility: Not a stair in sight. Very accessible.

Fantastic service. I took my elderly parents who had never had hot pot before, and the servers very kindly prepared the dipping sauce for them and explained how to eat everything - taught them how long to cook each ingredient - some of the best service I can remember having in restaurant ever. Food was great - 5 stars :)

What an amazing place! Came for the à la carte menu for my moms birthday dinner. The food was absolutely delicious- everything was fresh and super tasty. The service was impeccable! They were always on top of filling up our soup bases and were super friendly and kind. Attentive without being intrusive and were quite personable. Will come here again and again - we have found our new favourite hotpot place! Thank you so much for the lovely dining experience

Edit update (5/27/2024): What an odd and unprofessional response. We told the waitress the shrimp paste and pig blood tasted sour and off. She took it away and didn t follow up. It s up to the staff and it s not a customer s responsibility to tell the employer. The staff and customer should feel comfortable or safe sharing this to you as an owner. Sending threats isn t a good look when I genuinely got a stomach ache. Learn how to apologize properly in this lifetime. Original review: Please avoid if you can. Some of the food we ordered were definitely spoiled and sour. We told the waitress, she apologized and was not offered compensation for food being sour. Soup base is bland. Two of us have food poisoning and will be reporting to authorities. They should have offered a discount or refund if the food is spoiled or gone bad. Way too expensive for pretty bad food.

Recently went here for their $40 AYCE Menu. Unfortunately my experience was subpar The food quality was low and not fresh overall. Their meat slices was the only thing of decent quality. The soup base was tasteless as water. Sauce bar was disappointing as well. The sauces were watered down and toppings likely were in there for a long time so youre basically stuck with soy sauce and green onions. How can a restaurant in such a prime location be this bad any Vancouver hotpot franchise will boil this place alive!

★★
June 23, 2024

Service was decent, but the food was pretty bad. Sauces at the sauce bar are watered down. The free soup base is flavourless and tastes like water. The self-serve ingredient and buffet section featured stale food that was mostly inedible. Some ingredients were questionable and did not taste good. They limit you on the amount of meat you can order. At the $50 per person price point, there are much better hot pot options I would pay at most $20 for what they offer.

I came here with my friend for the all you can eat buffet. Lots of food which tastes great. First time having hot pot and it was amazing. However 1 concern is miso broth was an extra $10 when we were already paying $40 per person Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly

The visit started off well with good food and a pleasant atmosphere, but it ended on a sour note due to an uncomfortable situation at payment. When it came to leaving a tip, the owners behavior was unacceptable. They loudly insisted we tip more, even giving us the machine back and saying pay more, we need money. This not only embarrassed us but also tainted the entire dining experience. Its important to remember that tips are a gesture of appreciation for good service, not a mandatory fee. This aggressive approach to tipping is not appropriate and significantly impacted our overall impression of the place.

My friends and I had the best experience at Legendary Hot Pot yesterday We each got a different soup base and I have to say that they were all chef kissed Of course, since this is all you can eat, we make sure to have food comas haha. I love everything on their AYCE menu but their hot pot broths are my favorite. This restaurant is quite affordable considering the high quality of food and service they provide. Highly recommended!

Definitely the best place to go to get away and wait out the traffic jam when coming back to Vancouver, hangry passenger problem solved, stressful driving during traffic jam is solved, and its all you can eat, love it. If you come here, park on the second floor, less hectic parking, go down from shoppers drug mart and cross the road. Parking: Dont park on the first floor, very stressful to get parking, go upstairs to the second floor, theres parking right above the hot pot place, take the stair from the shoppers drug mart and its just there across the road

The option to choose between a large or small pot adds flexibility. The diverse flavor selection leans towards the mild side, not overly salty. Both meat and seafood are fresh, with handmade meatballs being a standout delightfully chewy. The owners warmth adds to the positive experience. I look forward to returning for another visit!

I was there a few days ago. It was my first hot pot experience and will be the last one. The prices are very expensive and the taste is bad. The chicken broth was the most plain thing ever, no flavor at all. Everything was tasteless. They also tried to charge what I didnt have. Nobody explained how to make a hot pot. The cashier and male server were rude. Ill never go back again. Very disappointing experience.

Ive been there several times and I dont recommend students to come with friends, because if they see you are a student or a child, they will ask you to tip more. If you give it, will they say its just a small amount? I was really speechless. The last time I went to eat with my friends, they saw that we were students and were easy to talk to, so they wanted us to pay more tips. If we didn t pay back, they said sarcastically.

Small portion of food, over priced menu, and above all, their fruit bar is not fresh. The watermelon was at least over a day a old and smells sour. Walking to the washroom in the back, I could smell bad odour from sour food or garbage. By the time I got home after dinner, I was already feeling loose bowel. The only reason I gave a 2 star is they still taste genuine hotpot. Do not recommend after all.

Best duck. We went for the hot pot and it was great. We got two broths, hot and thai. The hot one was nice and spicy and the Thai came with a couple of shrimps and a bit of seafood all was wonderful. All the extras we ordered were great from the ribeye steak to different vegetables and different meats. So highly recommend the hot pot. However, what amazed us was, the duck. We also ordered the duck and it was one of the best ducks Ive ever had so that was a total surprise and this is the place to go for the duck

I was walking with my son nearby and he really needed to use the washroom. It was the closest place I could find as this was an emergency - hes only seven! So we duck in to this place and ask them politely if my son could quickly use their bathroom. They said NO and pointed and grunted towards the mall. Listen, I love hotpot, but do you know what I love even more? Good human beings. Im not a Karen but I recognize a parent in need and know what its like for my kid to suffer. These people were brutal at just being good. And for that, I recommend going anywhere else. Avoid please!

This was my family s first time eating Hot Pot and it was terrific! The service was lovely and fast, a perfect duo. The workers were very kind and helped us navigate through your first hot pot experience. The meat was so good we had to order more. 5/5 definitely recommend if you are looking for a new place! P.s dipping sauce, it was a game changer!

04.28.2022 I will add it because I got a reply from them. we did help you guys through making house special sauces and teaching you how to cook in the hot pot. It says, but it was honestly annoying. An old man grabbed my chopsticks without permission and put the meat in our hot pot. They speak loudly and overwhelmingly over and over during our meals. I wanted this to be private time with my friends, but are restaurant stuff proud of it as the best service? These people are quite confident and amazed. Do you grab the chopsticks your customers are using at this time when COVID-19 was popular? can not believe. They dont understand anything and the reply in this shop is not a real apology. 04.26.2022 When paying with a card, I accidentally skipped the tipping screen. I couldn t go back because there was no button to go back, so I was thinking of tipping it later. (There was only a cancel button) But earlier than I say about it, she said, Huh !? Why isn t there a tip!!!? Are you dissatisfied with our service!!? What s wrong!!? . I accidentally skipped the screen. And I tried to ask her if I could pay tip separately. However, I felt scared and atrophied because she spoke unilaterally with her high-pressure attitude. (It was difficult to communicate with each other, probably because English is a second language.) She said before I said anything OK! OK! Then how much do you pay me !? What percentage !? Huh? How much !? she put out the calculator, pointed to the total amount, and she attitude was You pay me early . I was fed up with this situation and became reluctant to tip. (But I paid it a little bit.) My mood was terrible and I wanted to share this event with the people around me. As a matter of course, it s my fault that I made a mistake and didn t the tip. However, it is true that I was shocked by the attitude of the shop owner. The food is more expensive than other HotPot restaurants, but it s not delicious. Overall, I didn t like the taste of this restaurant. Compared to hot pots from other stores, the ingredients may be fresher. But I m not convinced by this pricing and the shopkeeper s attitude. I ll never go to this restaurant again, and if my friends were planning to get together at this restaurant, I would share this incident and we would go to another restaurant. So sad.

All my visits with this place would be 5 but my latest experience was just average(I brought my parents here first time and the service lacked that day). I would give 4.5 if that was an option. The meat quality here is unmatched for the price we pay. We tried all tiers of their meat and would recommend their AAA beef. Best bang for your buck. Give their homemade plum juice a try...its delicious!

I just ate here yesterday . There wasn t a lot of people at the restaurant when we went to dine in , it took a long time for the server to come . The food honestly didn t taste good to me , nothing special . Took the mushroom soup base and AAA beef and shrimp ball and handmade noodle . My bill was over 50 dollars . I would honestly be fine if the food tasted good also you have to pay extra to get sauce . The server brought cup to serve tea which had something black dirty on it . She quickly removed it with her hand and was gonna serve me tea in it . I said I won t use that cup and she said let me get another cup. I just used my cup which I had for water . It is now 1:55 am and I am feeling sick in my stomach after eating there can t sleep. I almost feel I am gonna vomit . I will definitely not go back to this restaurant . I have gone to other hotpot restaurants but this place isn t good at all .

Traffic on Marine Drive was so severely backed up that we ended up pulling off into this mall, and then chose this place for an early dinner. Serendipity! It was fantastic. Our server was incredibly helpful, and made some great recommendations. In fact, we felt doted over all meal by the staff. It was great. We ordered half spicy with Szechuan chilies, and half pork broth. We did 2/3 on the chilies scale and felt we could have maxed it pretty easily. Thank you to the reviewers who suggested the AAA level of beef. We felt that was just right. Our favourite protein was the homemade shrimp ball. We also enjoyed the hand pulled noodles. If we are ever back in the area, we will definitely pop in again!

im sad we had a bad experience here. we have a family who have concerns with sanitation and some of the people we were with have low immune system. we wanted this to be the first hot pot we would ever eat together with them since we dont know how to do hot pot. so we were asking to move around sadly bec we asked for a less traffic area but they didnt know also, which made me sad seeing how our group moved from one table to another. we ended up being near the kitchen entrance :( so one of our guests left our group bec we were sitting in the high traffic area. so when we ordered we thought it would be lots of food but it wasnt. there were 3 of us wanting veggie options and it wasnt really that much for a very expensive payment. as a pregnant person i was not satisfied with the amount even when i thought we paid too much already. so yeah...that was a disappointment. we also were asking so many questions and were educated just a little bit to get the orders along the way. we went to a different place and they were giving us more understandable info on how hotpot should be done in their restaurant. im sad that the servers kept on fidgeting with our fire while we wanted a certain cooking temp with ours. they do have condements but its open and shared with everyone in the restaurant. also we wanted them to not touch the rim of the water glasses since its just not sanitary. its like sucking our servers fingers basically. so we asked for new ones and she still did the same and touched the rims of the drinks. WHY? in anycase, as a vegetarian eater its kind of hard even if they had the creative half n half pot. but we ordered individuals instead because we wanted to eat a lot but ended up not eating much at all. im so sad since we come from Burnaby and crossed just to try this place. sadly we wont be coming back anytime soon since we had that sad situation unfold. we said sorry to the restaurant servers when we left for making their lives inconvenient. for sanitary reasons 2stars. Vegetarian options: they have only a few broths for vegetarians. there is a half n half bowl with meat eaters. Dietary restrictions: im pregnant so i asked if the soup was ok for pregnant people. it was ok. just ask also and they will try their best to accommodate but sometimes they just dont have.

The four non-spicy pot soups are all delicious. The shrimp paste is in the shape of eight-treasure rice and is garnished with salmon roe. The texture of the beef and mutton is great. The decoration atmosphere is also slow. The small hot pot for one person also ensures health and safety.
