La Tao

Ingredients were fresh and good quality, but I have to agree with other people that it is quite pricey here (not all-you-can-eat). They do serve other Chinese food as well: dry hotpot, BBQ on skewers etc. They got a bar here with some cool cocktails as well as Japanese and Chinese beers.

Nice hot pot in University city! 25$ on average by person before tax and tips. Hot and spicy hotpot is very tasty!

Authentic food and great atmosphere!! Recently stopped for a business lunch and what a great choice!! The variety is incredible and includes some fairly standard items as well as others recommended for the more adventurous bunch. Great presentation and freshness. Loved the sauce bar and learning about the different options!! Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area, and I can't wait to come back!!

All you can eat hot pot! The broths were savory (rib broth, szechuan hot spicy broth), meats were tender, veggies fresh, and you made your own sauces. They did forget some of the things we ordered, but pros of all you can eat is that you just order more! There were a few things we wanted that they said they ran out of. Great spread to choose from in their menu, portions on the smaller side (possibly to decrease food being wasted). Like all you can eat places, they do have a charge if you order more than you can eat ($13.99/ lbs) and they have a 2 hr limit per table. My family came here at 1 PM on a Saturday and they sat us no problem, service was prompt, and everyone was nice. Servers are all bilingual (Mandarin/ English). We're already planning to come back with our friends!

This University City restaurant is a great place to go for Chinese hot pot. Their all-you-can-eat menu has a great selection of meat, seafood and vegetables; good quality and fresh. Also a nice selection of different broths. You can get individual hot pots or a large one for a group to share. Friendly and attentive service. We're already planning a return visit.

Love coming here.

Great food, fresh ingredients, highly recommended!

Waitstaff is very helpful! Great ambiance!

love their unlimited option at lunch. They have such a huge variety there is literally something for everyone. Can't wait to go back.

Very good food and nice people

Great food! Good service!

Ugh I can't even say enough good things about this place. Amazing service and food. Had a bit of everything and really felt like I was back in southern China!

Nice little restaurant. The ingredient selection and overall food is fine. Would be nicer if they would contain the dried spices in say, a broth pouch, so customers won't have to bite into certain strong spices.

I love this place . About $55 for 2 people . Amazing broths and great service , the guys there are quick and friendly. I was there from around 9-10:40 on a Sunday , it was only about 5-6 tables taken and we were the last to leave.

The food was okay. The dry pot chicken had potatoes and peanuts in it which I was not expecting. I usually get my dry pot chicken from Chili Garden on 47th Street and Baltimore Avenue and they make theirs differently and I love it (yum😋). I think what disappointed me most was that I was charged .50 cents extra, which the host went out of his way to retrieve, and I did not get the brown rice that I ordered. I got takeout which I am happy that I did because it was a little too loud for my own tastes for dining in but the music was nice to listen to because I knew I would be leaving soon.
