About Seafood Hotpot

Located at 1002 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19107, Seafood Hotpot operates as a chinese restaurant serving Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

In cities with a Chinatown, weekend mornings bring dim sum carts or order sheets, and lines form early at the most popular spots in Philadelphia; walk-ins are standard and reservations are uncommon outside large banquet restaurants. Regional labels matter: Cantonese, Sichuan, Hunan, Shanghainese and Taiwanese kitchens cook very differently, so a restaurant's stated region is a better guide to the food than the word "Chinese" alone. Some smaller restaurants in Pennsylvania are BYOB with no corkage fee; call ahead to confirm. A tip of 15-20% is customary for table service but not expected at counter-order takeout. Spice level, MSG and allergen questions are normal to ask before ordering, and most kitchens are happy to leave an ingredient out or tone down the heat if you mention it when ordering rather than after the food arrives.

No hours are on file. If you plan a visit, phone first or check the Google Maps link on this page for the latest times. The listed phone number is (215) 928-8838. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone.

Its Google rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 71 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.

Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Getting around Philadelphia is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across Pennsylvania's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

Food was delicious and fast. Drinks were high priced but that is normal for center city. The atmosphere is fun, and there is art on the wall that is beautiful. Servers weren't the nicest but the host was sweet

I had such a good experience here. The broth was genuinely flavorful β€” not watered down or overly salty like some places. We did a split pot and both sides stayed rich the whole time. The spicy broth actually had depth to it instead of just heat, which I really appreciated. The ingredient quality stood out the most. The meat was thinly sliced and fresh, not frozen-tasting, and the vegetables looked crisp and clean. Their sauce bar was also surprisingly good β€” lots of options, and everything tasted fresh. I liked being able to mix my own without it feeling messy or picked-over.

I think this is an excellent deal when it comes to price. $40 for everything! For the ones in the menu plus for all the drinks! If you are a foodie and can stuff alot, I mean alot lot!, this is the place to go to! The food taste is amazing in general! I just doubt the freshness of all foods served. But overall, they still are palatable! The place is not well-lit. I know that there's a reason for this and I also believe that they should put more lights to see, monitor, and maintain the sanitation of the place. We had a good experience. Will visit again next time to see if there's improvement 😊

This place is a hidden gem for seafood and hotpot lovers. For just $40, you get an all-you-can-eat hotpot plus a seafood boil β€” easily one of the best deals around. It wasn’t busy when we went (probably because it’s summer), which meant we had plenty of space and some nice privacy β€” we were seated far from other tables, which was great. The main dining area was super clean, and even though there was only one staff member running the front, he was attentive and checked in often to make sure we got refills and anything we needed. They really stay on top of the AYCE part, which I appreciated. You can choose between an individual pot or a communal one, and there’s a solid self-serve section in the back with drinks, sauces, veggies, noodles, and other hotpot basics. The seafood selection was surprisingly good β€” abalone, conch, crab legs, shrimp, mussels β€” all fresh and flavorful. The seafood boil took a little while to come out, but it was seasoned well and worth the wait. For meat, they had American wagyu, ribeye, pork belly, and lamb β€” all sliced fresh and great for hotpot. The only downside was the bathroom. The sink was clogged and almost overflowing, and there was no hand soap, w

I came to eat alone: so I can only do the $26.99 all you can eat option (the one that exclude Cajun seafood thing). The $26.99/person All you can eat (included non-alcohol drinks) with tax $29.15 I love that there are so many drink choices that included in the buffet (see attached picture) because not many hot pot restaurants do this. Tom Yum soup is delicious! The owners are friendly and patient with me too! Will definitely come back whenever I visit Philly!!!
