Hot pot recommendations in the Baltimore area?

Submitted by starrbub t3_124wyj1 in baltimore

I have a serious craving, but just moved here and don't know where to start! I see a ton of options nearby.

Would appreciate suggestions that are good quality, good atmosphere, and good bang for the buck. Thank you!!

Update: We ended up going to Hot Pot King and I'm currently lying down in the car in pain for the drive back 🙂 AMAZING recommendation - the Hub in general is a super cool place although I'm confused why it has a Charley's, and you can't beat unlimited crab and oysters on top of the regular hot pot offerings.

Hot Pot King checks my two most important boxes: individual pots, and buffet access to meats (and all other ingredients), whereas a lot of other hot pot restaurants in the area require you to order meats from wait staff or a tablet. Also has a good sauce selection and a delicious wintermelon tea! It is lacking a bit in ambiance but I'm there to eat.

Honey Pig in Ellicott City used to always make the list, but I haven't been there in ages not sure how they are more recently.

For somewhere within city limits there's Jong Kak.

I second Hot Pot King at the Hub and Kpot, both in Catonsville. I haven’t found a hot pot place within city limits that I like.

This the man with the plan ⬆️ or if you want it all in one package, legends off Pennsylvania. Chicken, subs, whatever, plus all the green you need for great prices! (Allegedly I don’t know shit about anyone or anything that goes down there) but yea, check out legends.

We ended up going and the ambiance was great, honestly, I'm not sure what you're talking about!! Leagues above a regular strip mall interior. Thank you for the recommendation!!! I had a great experience 😁

My preference is the Catonsville HMart and my kitchen.

I been there and didn't care for it. I thought that both the hot pot and BBQ sections were mediocre at best and the only thing I did like about it is that you can do kbbq and hot pot at the same time.

It's really the only hotpot I recommend to people. I've been to a few in the area, generation hotpot in towson, the hub(next to Iron age in Catonsville) and hot pot hero is really the best option with food choices and how nice the experience is with using the TouchPad

Second this - broth is flavorful, buffet for vegetables and seafood, and meats and noodles are ordered on tablet. Of all the hot pot places in Baltimore and Ellicott city/catonsville this one is the best - close second would be Hot Pot Hero - only con with them (and it's not a huge con) is everything is ordered on tablet vs buffet option
