China Bros.

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant and I highly recommend it! The all-you-can-eat hot-pot provided an authentic hot-pot experience, and it included drinks and beer on self serve base. Just a word of caution, when they say spicy, they mean it! Thankfully, if you prefer non-spicy, it truly means non-spicy. It was perfect for both me and my companions.

The restaurant offers a wide variety of vegetables, meat, and fish. They also have some pre-prepared dishes, ensuring there's enough choice for everyone. Although some of the meat was a bit fatty, taste preferences can differ. Overall, I had a fantastic time and enjoyed a lot of delicious food.

For dessert or a refreshing break, they offer a selection of fruits, primarily melons, and a wide array of ice creams.

I highly recommend making a reservation in advance, either by phone or in person earlier in the day. The place can get a bit crowded, but somehow, it adds to the atmosphere!

It’s the best hotpot in Essen no doubt. I visit the restaurant every year when I attend the Essen Spiel. They have a bunch of choices on different ingredients and serve with many ready food. It’s worth your every coin.

Authentic all-you-can eat Chinese hotpot buffet! Really nice, and especially with options of REAL hot and spicy (and tongues numbing, 麻辣) pot, which is what I want sometimes :)

All you can eat, and a pile of meat. Albeit small seating, the food they give are fresh and exotic, authentic Chinese food and real Chinese spicy. I had a fun time eating there, not to mention the drinks are included in the all you can eat fee

Really authentic and if you are into really spicy sichuan flavour, this is where you wanna be. Most people are there for the hotpot, as was I, but they have a la cart menu as well. It is all you can take&eat with drinks included. The ingredients are fresh, the staff are really friendly. Now, whenever we are in Essen, this is our to go eatery. Recommended as authentic Chinese hotpot👍👍

Great soup choices are offered for hotpot. Various ingredients to be chosen for. Unlimited drinks are included!

Because this is a self-serving place so I don’t need to understand Chinese. I went here the first 2 times with my Chinese friend, but the third time I went here with my sis, everything is easy when it comes to eating 🤣🤣
we just need to first smile with the waitress, choose a table, then tick on paper which 2 broth flavors we want, then go roaming and hunt for food 😂😂 there’s 1 fridge near the entrance for cooked ingredients and desserts, other fridges inside are fresh or frozen ingredients. There’re also lots of ice cream flavours (opposite with the 1st fridge). And yeah you can mixed up your sauces too ( I just mixed anything I think might taste good together 😂)
Small tip: don’t put your ingredients in the hotpot all at once like my sis. First, it takes longer to cook them, second, those that you haven’t eaten yet, would absorb the water a lot, which means while you eat your food, it also contains the broth water (the waitress will fill up your pot), which makes you feel full faster, everything then would taste the same, and you won’t even have space for dessert 😂😂

Delicious food. Large selection of items. All very traditional Chinese 'Hotpot' experience. Try their various soup base.

Hot pot for 23.5 per person including drinks. Large selection - meat, shrimp, vegetables, etc. Also included in the price is a buffet with hot dishes, watermelon, melon and ice cream. Friendly service. Better to book in advance. I recommend.

One of the best hotpot in town. I'm a regular here 😊

Food is amazing! Friendly staff, though I recommend bringing a Chinese-speaking friend.

Can't ask more for the price
