Haidilao Hotpot San Diego Reviews from The Last Year
What a nice lunch we had.
The lunch special is worth it and is pretty filling. Howard was our server and he was very patient to explain all the options and broths. We had the Tom Yum and Pork Bone broth. He even added some to-go items for us like dessert, snacks, and fruit. Overall, it was a very positive experience. The sauces were very nice because there were so many options. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area. Thanks, Howard and Haidilao, La Jolla.

What a surprising and refreshing experience was tonight
What a surprising and refreshing experience was tonight coming to Haidilao Hot Pot San Diego! It was our first time and we were taken care of from the first minute we were there to the last one! The hosts and our amazing server Howard made us feel welcomed and paid attention to our needs and went over and beyond customer service expectations! His kindness and patience guidance was extraordinarily helpful in choosing our food! We loved the food and the ambience too! The design was fresh and modern... The food options were astonishing and various! Loved the care in the details and we wouldn't change one thing! Thank you for the amazing job you're all doing with the business!

Love this place Didn't get a lot of photos this time but food and service is always great! Shout out to Matt tonight for excellent service and for being so helpful and patient with our extremely large group who came in from out of town! Everyone had a great time (: Thanks Matt!!!
It's a very thoughtful establishment, I will give them that.
The bathrooms are clean and fully stocked with a mouthwash dispenser, feminine products, lotion, and all complimentary! The waiting lobby has snacks that you can enjoy if the hangry monster is attacking you, because I could indeed see how this place could garner a long line. We went on a Monday lunch run, and it was a 5 minute wait, so great! Generally, everything is very clean, secret phrases can get you complimentary things (if they are in stock--they didn't have a handful of items on our visit), and they even provided a ziplock bag for phones, a lens wipe, and even hair ties for all the females in our party. The waiter took his time explaining everything to us, showed us how to utilize the IPAD for ordering. He was always pretty available to help, and the food items came out relatively quickly. We were super hungry, and ended up ordering a little more than we could finish, even though we had omitted 2 items from our original list. I'd say 2 servings of meat orders, 1 veggie, and 1 carb base per person was a pretty good portion. We did one extra order of meat, and could not finish it, we were all struggling so hard to finish the 6th portion already! Take note that the combo meal deals are limited selections, and also only doable with membership, that you have to do before your meal. Anyway, I loved that they provided sauce recipes (#4 was good with seafood, #5 Best overall sauce, great with beef, #6 Good with veggies). Egg noodles were nice and chewy, meats were all excellent quality, shrimp and scallop were good sizes, complimentary birthday cake was made by a local Taiwanese Bakery, Yiko Yiko. The Biscoff cake surprised us all with how light and tasty it was. I don't typically like cream on my cakes, but this one was so yum! The fruit was all fresh and sweet, the asian red bean dessert (didn't really like the jujubes in it, though) and ai-yu jelly desserts were a nice compliment to a rather heavy meal. No room for ice cream for any of us! Rounded out to about $55/person, with tip. This is a little pricier than some other places, but, they do offer a lot of extra perks.

GREAT SERVICE AND FOOD!! Our server Matthew was so nice and was always happy to help us. Service was fast and friendly, WOULD COME BACK!!
Our server Matthew gave the greatest service I've ever
Our server Matthew gave the greatest service I've ever experienced eating at hai di lao. He was very present in serving food, water, and among other things. 10/10 would come back and again. He gave an overall happy vibe to my table and again was very attentive to everything with precision and accuracy. Again 10000000000000% would come back and specifically request him as my server.
I love coming here, it's a family friendly experience and
I love coming here, it's a family friendly experience and budget friendly for big groups. Not to mention everything is always fresh and the service is always consistent. Today Gina waited our table and she was so kind and helpful. We always leave satisfied and look forward to coming back. I love that no matter how busy it might be, staff is always friendly, attentive and organized. Truly delicious food and a business worth supporting.
Service was awesome, the host to the waiter took care of us
Service was awesome, the host to the waiter took care of us from start to finish. The place was busy, but everyone worked in harmony and made sure we were taken care of. The layout is your typical Haidilao, they used robot servers to send the food to your table, but the staff still had to take the food off the robot and send it off to their next table. The food was good as usual, got bone broth and spicy, few meat options and veggies. The sauce bar was super busy but it was restocked quickly. My friends really enjoyed the food and the experience!
What an adventure.
I felt like we were in Japan! Location: 5/5: in the UTC outdoor mall, it was hard for us to find after parking on the street La Jolla Village drive for free. All I can say is look for the AMC signs & Nordstrom and it's right next door to Zara. It may be closer if you park in the structure but I think you have to pay. Seating: 5/5: We came about 4:00pm on Saturday with no reservations but I don't recommend that. Although we were seated right away, by the time we left the waiting area was a mob scene. Our booth was soooo cute! What you do: 4/5 It was a little confusing, but you order the broth first via an iPad and send to the kitchen, then order your protein and veggies and carbs. We needed help from the wait staff. Food: I have a shellfish allergy & my daughter has a nut allergy so I had to be very clear communicating that but we had no issues. Our favorite soup base was the Tom Yum because it was flavorful and a bit creamy. Similar to Korean BBQ, your broth is cooking in the middle and you use the metal baskets to cook your noodles and protein and veggies inside the hot broth. Condiments bar: 5/5. this is where you can really step up the flavors. I got fresh cilantro, tons of garlic, scallions & ponzu sauce. I dipped my meat in the broth then the condiments mix I made. It was so good. Tons of drinks - our drinks somehow got mixed up. We had to keep asking over and over for them and they finally came about midway through our meal. Flavor was delicious (pineapple mango soda), but serving time was bad. Overall experience: 5/5. They did an authentic show that we weren't expecting! The servers were Al super nice and made us feel welcome and they give you an apron because you make a huge mess! Can't wait to come back.
Made a reservation online the day beforehand for lunch and
Made a reservation online the day beforehand for lunch and was seated immediately. Had been here before for dinner and the quality was great, but definitely pricey! Came again for their lunch special, which is definitely a 5/5! For $20 a person, you get a protein, soup base, plate of veggies, a drink, and access to the sauce bar. With 3 people, we were able to get different things for variety. Service was great, and they checked in regularly! They offered to let us takeaway the rest of our soup base as well, which I probably would've done if I was going home right after
The service was terrible.
Servers kept forgetting about me and took forever to get the food. Took so long I had to pay for parking! First two hours parking is free... won't come back! Better places! Not worth bad service and expensive prices.
My favorite restaurant.
Service and food was top notch. I've been 15 times and it stays consistent. If you're looking for fancy hot pot this is the place, especially if it's around the holidays. Worth the money.
The food is bland; think about the flavor of cabbage soup
The food is bland; think about the flavor of cabbage soup in "Willie Wonka!" Busy restaurant and very noisy, but the staff seemed like lifeless zombies ( like the ones in Hotel Transylvania; per my little one! ) not worth the expense and time!
This is the first time I want to write a review because of
This is the first time I want to write a review because of a lady, her name is Kaely, who provided service to us on this Tuesday night around 5:00 pm. She is really nice and caring during the whole time we were there. And my daughter likes her very much as well! We will definitely return to Haidilao because of her. Btw the food is amazing as well of course haha.

super fun i loved the performances and the dancing noodle!!
super fun i loved the performances and the dancing noodle!! the food was delicious, my fav was the tom yum soup base. my first try at the sauce bar was a fail because i was too excited to scoop the stuff. the snacks are so yummy and the included ice cream is a perfect dessert. we also went for a birthday and they brought out a big sign and gave us the most delicious little cake it was strawberry and angel food cake.
Yummy Hot Pot
This Hot Pot Place is so much better than the ones that are locally near me. These guys make the drive worth going here and I love the amount of selection they have along with broth options as well!

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.

I have some reservations coming up tomorrow that have gotten lots of views but haven’t sold yet. I haven’t made a sale yet since I just joined this week.

Just looking for a little reassurance. Thanks!

This app is a catfish and overrun by people programming “bots” and algorithms. It makes it frustrating for someone not well versed in this to have any movement.

Also don’t pay these fake “gurus” hundreds of dollars to teach you. Might as well sign up for a software class. 😕
