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.

SungHwan Lim: Been here more than ten times and it was my first time to see more than ten little flies flying around the food.The most disappointing part was that I saw no effort to make it better after I talked to the guy on the front desk.The photos were taken 20 minutes after I talked to the guy.

최may: You can eat vegetables in a healthy way, and you can season them to your liking! It's fun and the soft-serve ice cream after dinner is good. You may have to wait an hour or more on weekends. Anyone should go once.
