Yin Tang Spicy Hot Pot - Duluth GA 隐烫: Reviews & Ratings

This review is longggggggg overdue so I'm going to make this one count! For those following my Yelp journey, as usual thanks for tapping in and for those who are new to this type of stuff, keep on reading and I'll put you on some game. Where it all began for me...Arcadia, CA. I lived literally across the street from this location and my Wife was in loveeeeee with this hot pot place, this is a complete understatement when I say love! I could easily say for 1 year straight we ate it 1-2 times weekly, family of 5 meaning we spent an average of $70-80 per visit, $150/weekly, $600/monthly, $7000+ in that first year! We had so many damn stamp cards I think the owner considered just Net 30 billing us. For those familiar with the Southern Cali area, we lived in a 90% Asian city which was also surrounded by other Asian cities so saying Yingtang is a top contender is saying it all! The business model is great and straight to the point, simplicity wins. Just like at a buffet, you grab yourself a bowl, choose your meats, veggies and so on then tell the lady your spice level, that's it! Gotta love my Chinese people and how they get straight to the point of getting you from the beginning of the line to handing them money :) Fast forward to 2024, I moved to GA with my Wife...as an Asian man spending 99% of my life in Cali I knew I was doomed when it came to culture and food choices in GA, yeah yeah everyone keeps telling me how "diverse" GA is but it's all bologna. Here's the thing, I trusted my God that he was bringing me to a new state for a new chapter of my life, so I had to trust the process. Just months after moving here when we found out 7 leaves Cafe (which is literally up the street) built a location in GA! What in the holy jumping Jesus, go check out my 7 leaves review you won't believe it either! But thennnnn, thennnnnnn my Wife like many women happen to be scrolling through Instagram looking for food and how to spend their money and damn near loses her shit when she found out Yingtang arrived to GA also, what's the chances! 7 leaves was one thing but YingTang, nah that is evidence for God! For those thinking, man stop Cappin! You were probably paid to write this review, nah, I got receipts and here is one of them. I've literally attached a video of the day my Wife found out about this location, there's a dancing portion to it where she starts break dancing and actually left work early that day so we could go eat there to verify it was the same place, yes I'm not lying! Look, the food is great! The value is great! $13.99/Lb (prices are subject to change and I'll let you know when they do because my Wife will notice) the vibes are great! Staff is super attentive and nice and the owner Stephen is super dope too. Oh lastly, I get it...it's kinda intimidating being non Chinese or Asian for that fact and walk into a very "Asian" restaurant, for all the non Asians I promise you it's worth visiting, dont skip leg day and don't skip the chance of having the best hot pot in the Atlanta area. If I'm wrong just email Stephen, unfortunately I don't deal with complaints :) So my family and I have an inside joke every time my Wife takes us to eat here, our inside joke is that Stephen drives a Supra and every time he sees us walk in he goes to the back room and starts ordering parts for it because once again the amount of times we come here he is going to easily have a 900hp Supra built in no time. On a serious note, this place is absolutely worth the hype, let Stephen know his buddy Mike from California brought you and your family in, he'll treat you right cus he's never done my family wrong

Yintang genuinely have a special place in my heart. The employees are all so kind, accommodating, generous and most of all, accepting. Food is always prepared quickly, and they serve the entire table all at once so no one ever feels left out. Portion is amazing, food options are great and the flavor is incredible. 10/10

Really good and convenient choose your own ingredients hot pot! Its similar to others like YGF, but I like this one more because they have sacha sauce and give you a yogurt drink at the end which is a nice touch. I also personally like a few of their topping options better, like the shrimp fortune dumplings and the noodle choices. Otherwise the options are pretty standard, with beef, lamb, pork, and the usual fish balls and veggies. If your weight is over 2.5lb, they also give you a free soft drink.

If you love ramen and want to try new ingredients this is the place! Everything is made fresh to order! You grab a bowl and start adding the raw ingredients you want to add to your soup. The price is $13.99 per lb, if it goes over you pay a little more, so choose wisely! I pre-planned ahead I wanted a tofu seafood veggie combo. I noticed some ingredients I never tried before and was curious to try! There are over 70 ingredients to choose from. We got to the broth option and I wish they had a clear broth instead of the miso based broth, it was a bit salty. I saw there was a no broth option, which would make a great stir fry. They cook the food and arrived very fast. It was fun to search for your ingredients under the broth. Great experience, I'm not sure this can be ordered ahead of time if it was an online order. It's better to eat it hot and dine in person.

Yum!! This is a great place if you want a quick and flavorful meal! I believe it opened a few months ago and i've already been a couple of times. The selection is great and the prices are fair, I usually only pay $15~ and walk out FULL. The sauce bar is small but it has all the essentials. The food comes out quick as well. It is also great to get To-go!!

I enjoyed the food here! It was very confusing as it was my first time here. But I just looked at what other people were doing. You come in and go to the front to get a clean bowl and tongs. And you go down the line and pick what you want in your bowl. There's a decent selection of different proteins, vegetables, and noodles. I really liked the tofu, noodles, and fish balls. You add what you want in your bowl and then the staff will weigh your bowl. Then you select which broth you want. There's tomato and spicy beef. I chose the tomato and they gave me a ton of broth. The staff takes your bowl back to cook all the ingredients in the soup. You get a receipt (keep the receipt to pay at the end). After your food is done cooking, the staff brings it to your table. The makeshift sauce bar is near the doors. It's very limited and mostly just containers on trays of ice. But I had no complaints as it had all my favorite basics. I like a lot of minced garlic, green onion, sesame paste, soy sauce, and chili oil. If you are expecting a more extensive and fancy sauce bar, you may be disappointed however. Staff were nice. They gave me a TON of broth so I had sooo much broth leftover. I think it may be because most people get the beef broth so they had a lot of extra tomato broth to give me. This is a different type of hot pot, more like malatang style. If you like hot pot, this is an interesting and new place to try. I think I still prefer hot pot places where I can cook everything separately myself in different broth bases.
