818 Heat Hotpot & BBQ - Boca Raton, Florida

Convenient mix of hot pot and BBQ. They charge for left food but you have to leave alot to get charged for it. You can cook the BBQ while also doing the hotpot. There is also a karaoke spot directly next to it. Only dig I can give is that the booths move which made it hard to get in and out of them and not affect those behind us. Parking is plentiful as it’s in a plaza type location.

This was my first time having Korean BBQ and it was a wonderful experience. The server walked us through the menu and how to do both the BBQ and the hot pot, including recommending some things we might like. The staff were all very attentive, checking on us constantly and bringing out whatever we needed. I preferred the spicy Sichuan broth here to the other hot pot place I went to. The kalbi was delicious and I had to fight my husband the spicy chicken bulgogi. The bottle of lychee soju was so good that it was gone too quickly. They were really busy and had no indoor tables but the back patio had GREAT airflow (AC unit, rotating fan). I'm looking forward to coming back.

I was so excited to try this place out!! I tried making a reservation through the website but it’s the wrong website. It takes you to an air conditioning website. When I first walked in and told the guy how many people it was for and how long the wait would be, he said “do you not see how many people I have on this list”. He was very rude but I waited because I heard great things about this place. We waited about 25 min and when we finally sat down, the waiters were really helpful and nice. The food was amazing and the experience was very cool! I would definitely come back for the food and experience!

If you have never had Korean barbecue or hot pot, you can try both at 818 Heat Hotpot & BBQ! They have so many different items to cook including seafood, meats, noodles, veggies, and more! We like that they have a selection of veggies and seafood you can pick out from their open fridge. They have a sauce station complete with all types of sauces and spices. There’s also a sauce guide to help you create the perfect sauce to pair with hot pot. If you’re celebrating a birthday or special occasion, you can reserve their private karaoke room and sing your heart out. Their staff is pleasant and helpful. Go visit them!

We came there for my daughters 14th birthday! She really wanted hot pot. We got the hot pot and Korean barbecue dinner. The food is amazing! There are so many options in regard to veggies, proteins, noodles, etc. The service is on point and it seems like they genuinely care that you’re having a great time. I am so glad we made the last minute decision to come here. We will be back again often!

The restaurant is charming and located on a lake with indoor and outdoor seating, beautiful to sit outside with the cooler weather. I have been to many hot pot locations and this one is the best. Quick and attentive service, good food, and they have a make your own sauce recipe menu! They bring your food but you also have the buffet to take from too. On the menu they also have cooking times which I like. Also love their soup bowls they are artistic!

I went with my family and our server seemed in a bad mood and slammed our food in the table which made us very uncomfortable knowing our server was annoyed at serving us. The meat was overall pretty good but some cuts like the thinly sliced beef weren’t as good, there wasn’t a wide variety of meat or vegetables but their ice cream was pretty good just wish our server at least pretended to be happy while serving us as it made the atmosphere uncomfortable for everyone. I’d probably go to a different kbbq spot.

The service was great. The food is amazing. If you know what you're doing, then you will have some absolutely delicious food.
