I got to pick a date spot and I wanted to try a hot pot place that we haven’t been too. I read the reviews online and Qing seemed like a cool place. We arrived and were seated instantly. The place wasn’t busy yet. They have table and chairs and booths. The decor was typical of that of an Asian restaurant. The area and bathrooms were clean. It is a bit smaller than most hot pot places. The menu was extensive. I was impressed with so many options. We did not know that the table grills were not open yet or we would have modified our ordering with less food. The broth was very flavorful. The cold bar had many different sauces and some fruit. You have to get your own utensils which is fine, but it can get crowded with more than one person up at the bar. It is all you can eat so we wanted to try a little bit of everything. This proved to be a mistake because the portions were so big. We felt bad for ordering so much but 1 portion was the size of a dinner size. The sirloin and potatoes were my favorite. My boyfriend loved all of the seafood. I got the crab legs. Do NOT recommend. You could tell they were previously frozen and the meat was very sticky and stringy. We did end up paying to take home some meat we didn’t cook. It was definitely worth the price, we pan fried it at home and it was delicious. We would definitely go back. Both of us would order less and maybe try the hibachi and hopefully the table grill will be open. I believe he said the end of November. Lesson learned, always ask about portion sizes! Overall, you most certainly get what you pay for, plus more.

First time coming here and it has become one of my favorite places. I didn't know this place existed, it's kind of hidden in a plaza, but definitely a gem. Food was so so good, they provide many options. It's kind of pricey but, very well worth it and you're given 2 hours to eat all the food you want. Make sure you eat everything you order because there is a food waste charge. I'll be coming back often❤️

Hello! First off I would like to say that this restaurant has a very nice and quiet atmosphere if you come in the afternoon like my wife and I did. It’s a perfect spot to relax and eat some really tasty food. We enjoyed their well marinated spicy and normal beef bulgolgi as well as their Szechuan base for the hotpot. Thank you Qing Shu for the amazing food and great experience! We will be coming back again soon!
