It was good! I ate here free on my birthday. It is one of the few places that lets you eat free on your birthday as long as you have another guest. Other places require you to have 5+ guest or more to eat free. It is decent, it is one of the few bbq places in the area. We had a party of 5 and service was pretty quick. Sauce bar could be a little better. They change your grill frequently!

First hot pot experience. The veggies were fresh and the broth was good too. I liked how they had sauce mixture recommendations on the sauce bar for people like me who haven't been there. It's awesome that they have free food on your birthday. The service was a little slow but the food made up for it

We ate here with a party of 6 at the hot pot table. Our experience was better than expected. We had never had Korean Hot Pot before and it did not disappoint! The choices were diverse with a great assortment of seafood, meat, and vegetables. The broth was delicious. This is a great interactive experience especially for a family or larger group but there are also tables for smaller parties. I would recommend it. You will not leave hungry.

I took the family out to try Korean BBQ. This is an all you can eat restaurant with plenty, plenty, of options from beef and vegetables to seafood. You can add onto the base price for an extra five dollars to get a Hot Pot Soup which adds plenty of new options to eat and to try. The restaurant is very nice and sleek. The tables were clean, the cooking area clean and the restrooms were clean. You scan the menu on your phone, the wait staff comes and you order what you'd like. The food is brought raw and then you cook it on the table's built in BBQ (there are separate burners for the Hot Pot). There is only one grilling station which makes it awkward for tables larger then two people. Some of the staff were extremely friendly. Other staff were courteous but rushed with less patience. The food is brought on large platters. It was very difficult to figure out which meat was what as many of the proteins look the same. When I asked one waiter, he explained it, but not thorough enough and too rushed for me to remember what he said. They changed the BBQ grill several times to remove the burnt food debris. It's unlimited so you can order away. Now, the meat itself is not Grade-A meat. It can't be for that price. It's a bit fatty, which you need for the grill. It's good though. The salt and fat in the meat coupled with the BBQ grill makes the food taste pretty good. Your fingers will swell later from the salty meat. On the table are some trimmings and there is a whole station of lots of sauces and seasonings to cook with. The meal ends with juicy oranges brought to the table. Now folks, this is not a place to come if you want fine dining Korean BBQ. This is NOT a premium steak house in any way. This is a place that's a fun experience where you can try a lot of different meats and seafood. What I love about it was that the food takes a bit of time to cook which allows you to hang out with your company and not feel rushed at all. This whole local area has dozens of restaurants to choose from. If I'm back in the area I might try another place as there are a lot of inviting places. But, I would not have a tantrum if my family wanted to come back. I enjoyed my experience very much.

I realized that I go here all the time for hot pot but never review it since it's such a regular spot for me! I went here last week with some friends and had a completely vegetarian hot pot meal for the first time (in a restaurant). The waitress was very accommodating since we can't eat chives, onions, garlic, et cetera. We ordered the herbal and mushroom broth in a duel hot pot. All of the vegetables, protein, udon, were fresh and delicious. The waitress checked in on us a perfect amount of time to take our orders and cater to our needs. We came here on a Sunday evening, and there were only a couple of tables full, but I can vouch that it's usually more packed. The sauces station were refreshed and plentiful. The vibes are always right here. My friends loved it, and they're so excited to come here again. Even though we didn't order meats this time, I typically order meats, and I can admit that the meats here aren't as juicy or as high quality--compared to other places like K-Pot. I'm not a big meat eater anyways, so Nine Ting is absolutely perfect for me. As always, thank you Nine Ting for being my go-to hot pot restaurant in PA.

I've been here a handful of times for hot pot and each time a member of the group has been celebrating a birthday as the birthday person enjoys a free meal! The service is pretty standard, not overly attentive but if you need something a server is around to assist. The portions of the food brought to the table are very reasonable and the produce has always been fresh - I love the fried tofu! The highlight is the sauce bar - they do have a little guide to help you make something you'll enjoy but if you're like me you'll make a few mistakes until you find a combination you enjoy. I love that each meal has ended with a little ice cream and fresh fruit. It's a good place for a 4-6 person group! Just remember it's a BYOB!

I am a first timer to the Korean BBQ & hot pot. It was a family gathering of 8, so we decided to do both. Wow, we were lucky to get a private room. I had to get the hang of using the hot pot & grill. They have so many options for the seafood lover bs meat lover. And so much food but you need to remember that you will get charged if you don't eat most of the food. Overall a great time to have good food, good conversation and a cooking experience for my kids. Next time we wouldn't do both it in one visit. It became overwhelming. Oh & we didn't know it was BYOB!

Nine Ting in Chinatown is a culinary paradise blending Korean barbecue and hot pot. The ambiance is a perfect mix of modern chic and inviting warmth. The Korean barbecue experience is a masterpiece, with melt-in-your-mouth meats and expert guidance from the staff. The hot pot journey offers a symphony of broths and a vibrant array of fresh ingredients. The communal experience around the bubbling cauldron fosters togetherness. What sets Nine Ting apart is the meticulous attention to detail, especially in crafting dipping sauces that elevate the entire dining experience. Leaving Nine Ting, I felt a profound sense of satisfaction. It's not just a meal; it's an immersive journey into Korean culinary excellence. Five stars feel inadequate -- Nine Ting is a gastronomic symphony that leaves you craving more.
