Where To Get Delicious Hot Pot in Atlanta
Simmering, sensational hot pot is a fantastic way to warm yourself up in the cold winter weather (or enjoy any other time of the year)! Perfect for group dining, hot pot is a cooking technique and cuisine that originated in China with many regional variations. For those unfamiliar with this cuisine, a flame in the middle of a dining table keeps a pot of flavorful broth simmering, and you’ll add delicious meat and vegetables to the broth and cook them to your liking. It’s an interactive and delicious way to enjoy your meal amongst friends. Here are some of our favorites around town!

2. Chong Qing Hot Pot
5385 New Peachtree Rd, Chamblee, GA 30341
The portions are truly plentiful at this Chamblee outpost in the Chinatown mall. They have all sorts of Chinese cuisine, including lots of Sichuan favorites, but their super affordably priced seafood and beef hot pots are some of our favorites. Try the fried crispy pork hot pot for a bit of a twist. This is a food court spot, so be aware the digs are pretty low-key, but the portions, flavors and prices are all fabulous.
3. Chuan Yu Hot Pot
1300 Peachtree Industrial Blvd. Unit 3101 Suwanee, GA 30024
Chuan Yu is a really excellent all-you-can-eat hot pot spot. They have an individual hot pot option as well as a split pot option. Try the bone broth or the spicy broth, which you can get at varying levels of spiciness to suit your taste!
4. Good Harvest
Good Harvest is unmatched for fantastic Chinese hot pot in Atlanta. Gather around and add ingredients like meat, seafood, and leafy vegetables to a simmering pot of soup stock that is one part show and all parts deliciousness. Something different they do is serve “dry” hotpots with unique meats like frog. Be sure to also order their “charpati,” an addicting flat bread/pancake that’s popular in regions like India and Nepal.

You really can’t beat the prices and flavor KPOT is offering.
