Myles Awai: One of the best hot pot experiences I’ve had in a loooong time. Happy Lamb has a great assortment of meats and other items to include in the pot. The food is decently priced and there’s great service.

Gloria Ha: I hadn't been to Happy Lamb in over 3 years (I did love their lunch special) but I was inspired to go since they offered free AYCE on your birthday (or the day before or after, with purchase of another AYCE). It seemed like a low-stakes way to try out the AYCE I've been seeing advertised online. I'm so glad I went. I had a wonderful experience and Happy Lamb is now my go-to for hotpot in the area.Currently the promotional price for AYCE is $27.99 on weekdays and $31.99 on weekends including Fridays. It looks like their normal price is $35.99 -- not sure when they'll return to that. In any case, unlimited meat and seafood at $27.99 is amazing for this area. And the quality is amazing! We arrived around 6:30pm on a Wednesday and were lucky to get seated -- there were people who arrived soon after that were waiting for a looong time. The restaurant was packed.I was surprised to see how the restaurant has completely changed to AYCE only -- it was such a good move. They manage to fit a huge variety of seafoods, vegetables, and noodles/tofus in a small amount of space, very efficiently. It's compact and designed smartly to keep the ingredients in their best state (eg having some things in individual plates).Everything was very fresh and tasty. I especially loved the shrimp paste -- it's airy and light and makes for delicious and fluffy pieces of shrimp goodness. The fish fillet (probably swai) is delicious and the marinated fish fillet had a nice coating that kept it more tender after cooking. Those were definitely my favorites in the seafood section.The thinly sliced meats (you order these separately) were amazing!! It made me think that thinly sliced meats are a win-win for the customer and the restaurant. The restaurant can give you less meat by cutting it thinner but it will taste better because it will melt in your mouth more. Both the fatty beef and the thinly-sliced pork were amazing -- just 10 seconds in the boiling broth to make it a melt-in-your-mouth bite. The marinated beefs are thicker and tougher with some weird parts -- I would not get this again when there are so many better seafood and meat options.They had all the different types of tofu skin and tofu -- love the wrinkly tofu skin and the porous tofu. The bok choy was very fresh and clean. The drinks are a bit sweet but you can always dilute them with water. Of course the broths are amazing as always. The spicy is not as oily as I remember and it's so good! I love the garlic in the broths too -- they end up getting nice and tender.Happy Lamb literally has everything I've ever wanted in a hotpot place (shrimp paste, fish fillet, fatty beef, delicious broth, tofu skin) and it's unlimited! I was very happy. This was a big improvement from the previous version of Happy Lamb (where I never ordered a la carte because I saw the $$ going up). You can definitely eat enough here to be done with hotpot for a few months (or until your next birthday...). I'll definitely be back! I would definitely choose it over Spring Shabu Shabu -- location-wise much more convenient, probably can avoid crazy waits, and unlimited meat and seafood.

Michael Metz: A good selection of items for the hotpot are available at the buffet. I also appreciate that they include some basic fried rice and spring rolls to have alongside the hotpot if you want. I also love the music they play here, though that of course will be a matter of personal preference. Overall both my visits here have been pleasant, I'm sure I'll be back again in the future.

Kevin Wang: Summary of my experience1. Soup base was very salty.2. Sauces were also very salty.3. 1.5h time limit - This is the first time I could not finish my meal at a AYCE place within 1.5h4. They ask you to basically self serve everything.. side items fine, but even napkins and water5. There’s a line to get side items.6. The meat that they do serve comes very slow, so we were constantly waiting.We didn’t finish eating.I gave a lower tip that’s not 18%. First of all, I was not happy. Second of all, was there even service?I think I should have not tipped because I got “lectured” by one of the waitresses and questioned about my tip. And I was stared out.

cat: I’m surprised that this place is still surviving. Their so called hot pot is terrible, broth was watery and food portions were small. Seating is dated and service was poor.

Rajesh Prabhu: Tried this place for the first time through Uber eats. Got the Kung Pao chicken and spicy chicken fried rice. The food was tasty and spicy. But had lot of soya sauce, sweet syrup, oil and lot of oil lol 😆😆😆 the fried rice was good though but quantity of chicken was like very very less. Hardly saw some chicken in that dishes lol but it was substituted with vegetables instead. I don't understand why chicken is included in the dish name lol. 20 bucks for each of those dishes, the quantity and quality was not worth the price. Very disappointed and wish it was better.

Songlei Liu: Very authentic Chinese food! Definitely underrated. Surprisingly few people considering how great the cooking is.

Steve Carr: Great place for hot pot with options for Chinese food as well. Staff was great and food was tasty. This place is kinda hidden but we'll worth the time to find it.Vegetarian options: You can order vegetarian options for hot pot and some broths are vegetarian

Pengbo Zhang: The special flavored chicken is my favorite. Beef is also great

Kit Kat: Went here for lunch on a Friday afternoon and it was completely empty! The atmosphere was nice and the hot pot was amazing. I also ordered a Thai Tea and fried rice, they were both very tasty. I would definitely go here again.

Ioannis Zafiropoulos: Familiar tasty Chinese recipes, attentive staff, huge plus the privacy (we were almost the only ones in the restaurant) for whoever worries about covid. We will be back.

Zhuangda Z: I ordered a boiled beef, the meat tasted very powdery, obviously not fresh meat, the whole taste is not authentic, not deliciousI ordered a water boiled beef today. Obviously, the meat was not fresh. Not only not authentic, but also tastes so bad. Not recommend from a Chinese customer.

Viviana Urra: The sushi was great and delicious, the desert was so good, loved the green tea & red bean ice cream. The waitress was really gentle and nice. I would definitely go again

marine azais: We ordered sushi but it did not taste great. I don't think the fish was bad, just rather tasteless. Would not return for sushis.

Kavya Srivastava: We ordered the Surf'n Turf Hotpot. The portions were a little small, and the place is a little bit more expensive than other hotpot places in town. The food was good, not too spicy.

gammeelovemusic: I’m pretty sure the restaurant has hired different chefs recently… This restaurant was always very underrated in my mind for the past 3 years, always did authentic flavors no matter what dish you choose. But my recent order is a disaster and very disappointed!

Sanja Simonovikj: We loved the food and they have a whole section in the menu for veggie/tofu dishes which is nice for vegetarians. They also have lunch specials but they seem to be offered only until 3pm. The service was fast, we got our food in like 15 min since ordering. The price is reasonable given the ambience and food. We plan on coming back!

Fei Peng: Food is good, service could be better...

Nirvan Patel-Masini: Interior is beautiful and the aromatics from the hot pots were wonderful. I’m remorseful at not getting the hot pot. The bento box with steak was fine. Nothing particularly special nor outstanding. Everything cooked well, the steak dull, the sides (fried stuff) was pretty tasty. Don’t come here for bento boxes. Get the hot pot!!!!!

Hunter Lunardini: Excellent service. We got the bento box and tonkatsu ramen. Both were amazing. Highly recommend.

Erin Lucier: Great food at a reasonable price! The service was fantastic and everyone at the table enjoyed their meal. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. Highly recommend for a date night or a group lunch.

Kevin Hsieh: Had ramen. It was good and was able to fit 7 people and a baby.

Nate Call: Just had a great dinner at the bar of Shabu & Mein. The bartender was amazing and interactive. He was patient with my questions and gave recommendations where asked. I went with the traditional ramen (though as I understand it, this ramen was less traditional with more of a modern twist), I've been trying to get some for years but never got a chance.It was delicious! Going to be coming again before I leave Boston.

Autumn Premen: Great drinks, delicious food, and exceptional service

Victoria Bartolome: Really good broth options here. Rib eye highly recommended! Veggie platters and tofu skin / bean curd skin are also good

S T: We love the hot pot. Went for the ayce on Wednesday. Extremely generous portions. Only one server on and she was killing it.

Alvin Tam: The ramen is amazing especially the pork cheeks!!! The service is a bit lacking. Slow and not very responsive...and that's when there was only 3 tables there including us, can't imagine when they are full

Liana: High quality and generous portions of ingredients. Vegetable and meat platters were fresh. The spicy mala and tonkotsu soup were really tasty!

Maria Mavrikaki: Very overpriced, but quality of food very poor. We had the special hot pot base broth ($12 for the broth), but taste wasn’t good, very spicy and hardly felt any meat taste (probably overly diluted). We also had ribeye (~$30) and it was..bad. Def never going back, they need to work more on their food (they can try something like Happy Lamb to see the difference).. real waste of money :/

Wise Guide: Super polite staff, but the service was very slow!I had very high expectations from this place! I love ramen, but the curry ramen here tasted very different from other curry ramens I’ve tasted before! It was like an Indian based curry rather than Thai based curry.I may go back here and try the hot pot or other food, but I don’t think I’ll try the ramen again!

Andrew Shiah: Awesome place to grab hot pot in Cambridge. The staff and service are fantastic and knowledgable, able to answer any questions for new and experienced hot pot diners. Food is also of great quality and they have a great variety of broths, meats, veggies, etc. Would recommend for anyone!

Sally Ng: We had hotpot here. The broth was ok but the food was so little for the price. Ordered two short ribs combos and the meats were so little we had to order another plate of meat which we never had to when we go to other hotpot place. The additional plate of meat we ordered was very dry, can’t even finished it. They also chopped the cabbage to tiny pieces which it literally just dissolved in the broth. Ended up spending $100 for two people and neither of us was 70% full. Will never come back again.

Jasmine Chow: After waiting 45 minutes to have our order taken, we received the dishes that were all very small portions and drowning in super salty sauces. Maybe rice would’ve helped but they were all out of white rice. The noodle dish had maybe 5 strings of noodles in total. I’ve never been so disappointed at the quality of classic Chinese dishes. I guess the only redeeming quality is that after such a long wait to order we were given a tiny dish of (very salty) peanuts to..add salt to injury?

Duan Yutong: Happy lamb didn't use to be this good. The meat quality has always been great, but the broth and sauce sucked, and waiters liked preaching their way of sauce-free hot pot which surely was part of their training and considered as a selling point. It was pretty annoying and ridiculous.However happy lamb has gotten so much better over the years, responding very well to new competitions pushing the local hot pot scene to a new level.With the addition of new broth options and a self-serve sauce bar with fruits, it is now a feature-complete shop.The AYCE is unbeatable bang for your bucks.

Rachel Wallace: We were visiting the Boston area for the weekend and dying to eat some authentic hotpot. It was crowded and a Friday night, but we put our names in and were seated within a half hour or so. The meat selection was extensive, we ordered that thin sliced American beef and it came out on a beautiful platter, one order was the perfect size for our party of four. The menu was easy to understand and even had recommendations for the best variety of dishes. The atmosphere was great, super quick service and they even had cubbies below the booths to put your belongings. The only thing I'd say is there needs to be a tissue box at every table because that spicy broth really got to us. Overall excellent service, great food, and a perfect start to our weekend in Boston.

Chris Park: Individual hot pot holds a special place in me and my wife's hearts. Their soup has lots of flavor and the ability to choose the spice level is awesome. And portion size is just right. So why 4 stars? Well, it CAN be a bit inconsistent. Over the years, we've been here nearing triple digit times, and sometimes the soup is too watery, but that is a big sometimes and doesn't happen too often. And when that does happen, we just let it boil off for a bit and we're good to go.Check this place out if you like or want to try out hot pot.

Ngoc Lieu: I have been coming to this hot pot place for the past 2 years on my way home from work. It’s pretty much standard hot pot where you pick the broth and order from a list.

The servers are nice and the service is prompt. The facility is decent.

K. T.: My favorite spot to eat buffet hot potUpdated after 4 yearsI went to this place once a month or so, but once the waitress had the audacity to stop us to ask for 20% tip minimum after a terrible service, but she couldn't even do math, over $24 of tips for party of 3 with a terrible service, and their clams always full of mud, lot of times we get diarrhea after eating here at least 1 out of every 3 times, so we stop going here. I always tip 20% but with terrible service n stopped us to forced 20% is really something, won't ever come back again.

Colt Roth: I have never been so confused. More guidance from the staff or better instructions on what to do, how to order, how long to leave each food in the pot, etc. would have all made the experience more enjoyable. It also very pricey for the amount. Maybe if you aren’t amateur it is better.

Vanessa Smith: Literally obsessed with this place. By far best hotpot in Boston in terms of pricing, meat options, and service. All you can eat is $32 but will probably come out to around $40 a person. Seems expensive but easily a better deal compared to other popular hotpot places that charge $30 for one type of meat alone. Great options for vegetarians, i really recommend the spicy broth, it's amazing. I've been here almost every week and have been taking all my friends. Don't go anywhere else but here, they have it all trust me I've tried a lot of hotpot

Rafa O: Una experiencia muy agradable. Esta forma de cocinar era novedosa. Nos gustó mucho, comimos de maravilla y no fue caro para la calidad que ofrecen, incluído el servicio (una camarera estuvo explicándonos cómo cocinar los alimentos, súper agradable).Pedimos muchas cosas para probar variedad, y lo que más nos gusto fueron los dumplings y el marisco en general, todo riquísimo con la salsita que te acompaña.El exterior no invita nada a entrar, pienso que deberían de mejorar eso. En realidad es un malísimo escaparate. Y los baños también: no se veían muy cuidados ni muy limpios en realidad.

Kristina Lowe: Great place, cheap eats, friendly and funny staff. I liked it here. 4 stars only because of the interior, it's a bit outdated. But other than that - just great!

Nanice Tuff: We found hair in our food twice. We ordered one round and the total was 72.78. The selection of food was pretty small for the price. The waiters weren’t friendly they would come up to our table reach over to fill our water without saying a word then stand in the corner watching everyone. It was honestly pretty weird. They never responded when we said thank you etc. the food was good but it wasn’t hygienic which is funny bc on the door it said the place was Health inspected and passed. Absolutely disgusting. Avoid this place

Kelsey Hebert: This place is so fun! The spicy broth is amazing if you love heat and they have so many different veggies you can choose! This is one of my fav places to bring friends who are visiting Boston since the atmosphere and food are both fantastic!

赵文祥: 锅底很正宗，串串很好吃也很新鲜，非常不错的一家店

ying hu: 很棒的一次体验 从菜品到服务 都非常nice 还会再来的

Liu Qian: 味道太赞了👍，串串种类也很多，小姐姐服务也很好，很值的去的一家串串店

Alexanda Shi Yang: speaking as a chinese person, save your money

Anser One: 肉质很差，串串调味也偏重导致味道变质， 肉类基本不能吃全部都吐出来了。炒饭跟没有调味过的食物还算能吃

Pink Taroreh: One of the best hotpot I’ve had so far! I got the two pot combo - spicy beef broth and mushrooms. Both are sooo good. I just had to give it 4 stars because the “beef broth” smelled like Lamb. The Angus beef we got also definitely taste like Lamb. I don’t really like Lamb because of its distinctive taste and I can tell it’s definitely not beef. But it’s still not too bad! Also love the experience where we can go get the skewers and the plates. Skewers are pretty great! Plates are comparatively expensive, just make sure you have a strategic plan and be mindful before taking more of those. All the staff are friendly and very helpful. Overall, really good food and experience!

Michael Kit: Very casual hot pot restaurant. Big tables and big pot nicely placed and your not awkwardly reaching into the pot, or sitting too high or too low. Able to self serve and pick your own skewered meats from a fridge and order the traditional thinly sliced meats. Service was good and very helpful!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Xuecha Huang: Very delicious 😋 highly recommended

bond James: It’s not as good as it used to be. The waiter has been playing with the turntable. There is no service. The checkout waited for 10 minutes and it was not busy. The door may be the boss and there is no courtesy. Many dishes are not fresh.

赵钱: The first time I ate it, it was quite authentic and had the taste of my hometown.

Jianhua Chen: Delicious

Jaye Aster Broder: Nice place for hotpot. It’s well-priced. There is a spicy and non spicy broth. You fill up your sauces at a buffet area. There is a veggie platter but it has more basic vegetables so I’d recommend selecting individual vegetables separately. Make sure you add your noodles last or they will over cook.Vegetarian options: There are vegetables.

nxranny: Any review will tell you the food is good. Because it is of course. My rating is here is to tell you the staff is beyond this world! They are so friendly and caring! They make the food 10x better! Everyone was so sweet they really deserve a raise!!! If the owner can see this DO YOUR STAFF JUSTICE! The best restaurant experience in Massachusetts! Any low reviews on the staff are most likely from miserable people who are entitled! Be kind and respectful to any staff at any restaurant!

Toni Engmann: Great restaurant. I have been to the location in Cambridge several times and I like the Allston one even more. I think they could improve a little if they had a website so you could look into their options before you go. The facebook page ist not too clear on which days you are able to get all-you-can eat and on which you don't. A website could potentially help with that. Still love this place.

Sandip Sharma: Great hot pot place. Very good selection of broths and delicious thin lamp cuts. We had a lot of fun cooking our food there.Be aware of spicy stuff if you are not into it. The consider not spicy some dishes that would be considered moderate spicy for most.The service was good. I'd visit them again.Parking: It's Allston, so it's very difficult to find a parking spot in the area and if you found something, it's a 2 hour max, so you have to re-park if you plan to dine more that two hours.

Nataliia Ost: My to go hot pot place. Love it!

Jamie Van: Favorite hot pot place in Boston because of their broths. Definitely give the veggie tomato broth a try, always a go to. Meat selection always great- spring lamb, beef tongue, and any of the beef choices are great. A little pricey for the veggies considering portions, but always fresh. Definitely skip the sauce, you really don’t need it considering the broth is already flavorful enough. Parking isn’t really an issue if you don’t mind the walk, a bunch of metered parking on Commonwealth.

Tony J (Tony): Frankly speaking, I’d be happy to see such a hot pot restaurant in Allston. However, the food here is disappointing. The quality of the meet is just so so. The base soup is not that good flavor. You have to pay additional fee for sources. Well, the options are barren, and they are far from those typical ones from a native Chinese hot pot. Last but not least, the sanitation status is horrible, bugs flying everywhere. In short, far behind a qualified hotpot restaurant.

Gene Ho: Very disappointed. Wait staff was slow. It took 20 minutes before a staff got to us to take a drink order. They did not have a pencil for us to circle our order in, We had to use our own. worse part, they rushed us to leave, because they had another reservation waiting for our table, while we were still eating. Pretty sure I won't be going back.

Ryel Romero: As usually Happy Lamb broth is delicious, This location is pretty small. The sauce bar is very tiny and needs to be expanded, they have the most popular sauce options but would like a bigger variety and better labeling.If you’re looking for AYCE, try another location.Service was very nice and attentive, they refilled the broth without asking and would come and check in pretty often
