LaoJie

Very good value proposition AYCE option for hotpot and skewers. They have multiple locations across Brooklyn and Manhattan because the broth and food is good. My go to broth is usually bone or tomato soup base. The fish/shrimp paste is underrated and done well! If your birthday is within 3 days and you have a party or 4 or more, the birthday guy/gal eats for free. Just tell them you don’t want the loud music celebration or else they’ll do it. The interior decor is also themed nicely for “Lao Jie” experience. The best part is always the dessert as everyone enjoyed the mango pudding at the end! Make sure to wear clothes that you don’t mind attracting all that hot pot scent afterwards because it definitely will soak up all the aroma!

One of my favorite hot pot spots in brooklyn… food is always good, they have a nice selection of meats and skewers. Good cold beer and soju too. Highly recommend!

A very good hot pot restaurant in Brooklyn. Various type of broad for selecting and also yummy. Food and meat are fresh, also vegetables. high-quality items. Affordable price and energetic atmosphere. The sauce you can made and designed by your own. The Fried Bun with condensed milk is also good / Yummy !! Recommend. They also like the good service quick and friendly, attentive staffs. We will back again for sure!!

Always a great time when I go to LaoJie. My family calls it Lao Gai, or old street, in our dialect. The food is awesome, the service is awesome, the atmosphere is awesome. They provide bags to put your coats and bags in. The skewers here are a must. No need to worry about food poisoning due to undercooked food. The skewers come prepared and ready to eat. The hotpot is also very solid. Much better than some other options available to you on 8th ave. There is unlimited soda so I had my fair share of diet coke. Ventilation is great so I didn't need to burn up as I had my food cooking up in front of me. All in all, this was a very solid hotpot and bbq skewer restaurant in the 8th ave area!

Walked in for lunch after deciding to eat hot pot. The all you can eat price is pretty cheap. Service is quick and they were attentive. Overall they have a good interior and I think there was dry ice floating around too which was pretty cool.
