Enjoyed my experience at Happy Lamb Hot Pot. This style hotpot is very interactive as they bring you the meats and broth, but everything else you go up and grab from the ingredient bar. My boyfriend and I split the half and half broth, one was spicy and one wasn't. Then we got the all you can eat standard meat package--our favorite was the classic beef. After ordering this, we went up to get veggies, noodles, and seafood options. There is also a DIY sauce station where you can customize a sauce. The experience really depends on what you make of it, and after a few rounds and observing others, I got my footing and had a better idea of what to mix and make it tasty! They also have a few appetizers and desserts in addition to the classic hot pot. Overall it was a fun experience and I woul

Service wasn’t the best and we had to flag down the waiters and waitresses constantly to order more premium items. Broth was a bit lacking in flavor, but majority of items were quite fresh.

I am writing to formally complain about my experience at Happy Lamb today, which was by far one of the worst service experiences I have ever had. My friends and I were the first table of the day right at opening time. A male and a female staff member greeted us and led us to our table. Before we even had a chance to sit down properly, look at the menu, or understand how the restaurant works, the female staff member immediately demanded that we place our order. This was my first time dining at Happy Lamb, and I clearly stated that to her. Any professional server should understand that first-time guests need time to review the menu and receive guidance. Instead, she stood over us, repeatedly pushing us to order, even after I politely asked for a moment. At one point, I had to answer a pho

This is great hotpot in Central Square. The service was awesome. They sang happy birthday to my friend and brought a candle in ice cream for him. They proactively asked if anyone had nut allergies. Any time we ordered more meat it was brought very quickly. They have a great selection of all you can eat veggies, noodles, and treats to add to your soup. Their thai tea and lychee sake was super tasty too! Definitely check this place out!

★★★★★ 5.0 Kim Ondrako-Nguyen · Dec 2025

Our party of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Happy Lamb Hot Pot. This place was packed on Christmas, but it didn’t deter from the quality. The staff seemed overwhelmed, but they were efficient and it was wonderful to be able to just go up and pick as many items as you want for your hot pot while they come out with the meat. I wish we came here again before we left Cambridge!
