Little Sheep Mongolian Hot Pot

This is Shabu / hot pot, and not your typical Mongolian BBQ associated with Mongolian cuisine. The soup broth (can choose spicy or non-spicy) is quite unique ... It is delicious and very flavorful due to numerous asian herbs brewing in the soup base ($3.75/broth for each person)!

Non-spicy & spicy soup broth

Lamb and beef combo ($~11) - thin slices of meat absorbs the flavorful broth well. Not the best meat quality and can get a little tough in texture.

Lamb + beef combo
Soft tofu and spongy tofu are great additions, especially the spongy tofu which easily soaks up the soup broth. Veggies such as Napa and spinach adds more sweetness to the soup base. Unfortunately, the veggies didn't come out until the very end after all the meat, tofu, rice and noodle had already been consumed.

From the sauce bar 
(garlic, green onions, parsley, assorted sauces)

** TIP: I would come back for the lunch special, which is a great deal.   Mon-Fri, for $9.95  Comes with meat, an assortment of veggies, and noodles.  You can always order additional veggie/meat/fish balls etc. if desired.  (The lunch special isn't offered year-round... double check/call to see if your location is offering the special.)


Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Cost: $$$ (depends on what you choose to add... trust me, it will all add up!)
Service: 1.5 out of 5 
Service - 1.5 out of 5. 15min after ordering, the meat came first. The rice, noodle, and tofu didn't come until 20-30min later, so it was unbalanced just eating meat for the first half hour. After asking 3 separate waiters, they still forgot the orders of veggies. It wasn't brought out until a few minutes after asking for the check, and by then the meal was already coming to an end.
Recommend: Yes  - for the lunch special
