Tahoe Hot Pot - Stateline

I made a soup and this place was up on the list. Not sure if there are many options in the area for Hotpot. Service was great, servers were friendly and helpful. Occasionally checked for us, but the restaurant was not too busy when we were on a Wednesday at the end of May. Angry Shrimp and Tahoe Buffalo wings were excellent. So much taste and fritted to perfection. It's a must! For the hotpot we ordered vegetables and tahoe broth both were light in taste, maybe on the Bland side. I usually prefer the lighter aromas and that was even too easy. The meat cuts and portions are good quality, vegetables that come with the meat combs are enough for 2 persons max, so order extra. A bonus is that they have 3 delicious dip sauce that I basically stopped cooking the meat in the broth, dipping into the sauces, then in the mouth. They have other broth flavors that can be more tasteful, but only one note on the two I mentioned. Restaurant is clean and very decorated, they share a parking lot and it was not crowded when we were there. I'm sure if I came back in winter, I'd find myself here again!

I was pleasantly surprised to find that there are not many vegan and gluten-free options here, but it meant that I was able to have a decent meal here. There is a vegan mixed vegetable tofu soup for hot pot, and a good number of add-ons (more leafy vegetables, baby corn, sweet corn, 3 different mushrooms, and tofu). There are also glass noodles for a gluten-free option, also! Bonus: The staff seemed to have a good understanding of what vegan and gluten-free means, which is sometimes a challenge! I did the mixed vegetables tofu hot pot soup and added Enoki mushrooms and the glass noodles. The broth was delicious and the ingredients (both cooked) were also quite delicious. My only handle is that the mixed vegetable tofu combo came only with a Shiitake pitch for every half of the hot pot (so, two overall, as I got the big and it is therefore two halves of the pot). It came with a good amount of tofu, so you can get a fair amount of protein in this way. But I will say that I got hungry not too long after we leave the restaurant so while the amount of food was a lot, it was not so much in terms of calories, fat and protein to keep you full of feeling.

Cold 26 degrees... Hot Pot is the way to warm up the body. Excellent food. Very generous portions. Good price. Beautiful surroundings

The large beef portion is perfect for two light eaters. The miso soup is delicious, but the tahoe soup is just average. The lobster ball is fine, nothing special. However, the low prices really make up for any drawbacks. It’s incredibly affordable! If this restaurant maintains these prices, it will always earn at least a 3-star rating. The quality for what you pay is excellent!

The service was excellent, and I had no trouble securing a table for eight on a Sunday evening in August. The menu operates a la carte rather than all-you-can-eat, allowing you to choose what you prefer. Each main course—whether chicken, pork, beef, Kobe beef, or seafood platters—comes with a small assortment of vegetables. Alternatively, you can order individual servings of each vegetable or seafood. The large platters are perfect for sharing, as they comfortably serve 2 to 3 people. For broth options, you can choose from Spicy Tom Yum, Tahoe pork bone with herbs, Miso, or vegetable. Both the bone broth and Miso broth were packed with flavor!
