Xiang Zi Hotpot - Markham

4 stars:I went in a group of 5 for all you can eat hotpot lunch, where we got a mushroom soup base and tried a variety of hotpot ingredients. They gave free abalone, and the food was delicious overall. However, they cleaned the floors while we were eating, so it briefly smelled like a pool, and they also never asked to refill our teapot. The music they played seemed to be on repeat as well.

Excellent hot pot location! Everything is fresh. The beef, scallop, and beef tongue are soft and melting, plus many other selections for the dinner menu (dinner menu can be chosen for lunchtime as well). Service is fast and polite. Great price/quality! Don't forget, there is an extra charge for the hot pot soup (like any other hot pot places).

Very poor service, taste just so so, and very expensive, big space though, overall not worth it!

We enjoyed lunch here. good lunch options, beef slices and veggies were excellent. Tomato soup base was delicious. The servers were attentive too. they even wiped the high chair before they gave it to me. very kind of them. Will come back again.

First time trying this restaurant and it was great. I was there pretty late on a weekday for their all-you-can-eat lunch. But frankly for two people an hour is plenty. The decor looks like it is from an old Chinese restaurant or inn. The server was very friendly and helpful and made sure she warned us of the time limit. Picked 3 soup bases and they were all great, spicy, mushroom and tomato broth, $29.99. The spicy one was so flavourful that no dipping sauce was required. The quality of their food is very good. While the selection wasn’t huge, there was some interesting stuff, maybe because we only ordered the basic all-you-can-eat lunch, $29.99/person. Plenty of parking spaces. They take debit cards or cash!
