Aunty’s Hotpot House Reviews

Excellent and good food!!!!! Will be back asap. Mahalo!! Nice and clean, quick service.

Celebrated my birthday here with friends and it was the best decision! The broths were super flavorful, and the staff really went above and beyond to make the night feel special. Aunty and her son added such a warm, personal touch that made the whole experience so fun and full of laughs. We're definitely coming back for the ono food and amazing hospitality!

Went in on a Monday night and it wasn't too busy and no wait at all. We went to try out their new AYCE set up. It was 35.99 per adult. I will say I like their appetizers (beef and cheese gau gee, and the salt and pepper fried chicken). Other than that, everything else pretty much seems the same. I got the Vietnamese spicy and sour soup per the waiters recommendation since I wanted whatever was closest to Tom Yum. For the other sides, I love the options they have when it comes to the noodles, seafood, and vegetables! There were so many good options that I honestly didn't really eat much meat! Towards the end of the meal we also got a complimentary shaved ice dessert. Will be back again and I will definitely try out some of their other broths.

So delicious and aunty was SO SO SO sweet, she pretty much made our whole experience fun. we had the most amazing and fun time and felt so welcome and the staff was so attentive and kind. The restaurant was so adorable and wall art was so cute.

Aunty's Hotpot is sooo amazing and so close to home! Yes, this is the same Aunty who owned the former Aunty's Ramen off McCully. I was excited when she not only returned with Taiwanese hotpot instead of local style ramen, but she reopened in Kapolei, where parking is better and where there are far fewer solid food choices than in town! I actually think her hotpot is better than her ramen since diners can actually cook their own soup! Taiwanese hotpot differs from mala tang (Sichuan hotpot) and shabu shabu (Japanese hotpot), but they're all tasty in their own way! Aunty's Hotpot format is similar to most local/Taiwanese style hotpot places on the island. You pick your broth (you can actually switch your broth if you're pau with your bowl), protein, toppings (veggies, noodles, etc.), and sauces. Broths range from standard chicken/beef/pork/veggie broths to lemongrass, tonkotsu, or pho. What makes this standard format even more special is Aunty's personality, the same one everyone has loved since Aunty's Ramen. You can order your broth at a higher spice level than the menu's suggested level 3, but be careful! One time, my cousin asked Aunty for the hottest spice level for his tonkotsu broth, level 10! Aunty kindly warned him that the broth would basically be unbearable and suggested to start with half that spice level, a level 5, still higher than any of the menu's suggested spice levels. My cousin told Aunty his level 5 tonkotsu broth was perfectly spicy for him. Warning: I could smell the spice wafting from his broth, so I would suggest sticking with spice levels 1-3. Yes, she still serves her famous shareable complimentary Taiwanese shave ice, still loaded with boba, custard, lilikoi syrup, and colorful tapioca. I was so excited when I heard plans of opening an "Aunty's Hau Hale" at the same mall and where she would sell her famous shave ice, plus bubble waffles and smoothies! I think her shave ice is worth paying for. Aunty's Hau Hale is already open on the same side as Cinnabon/Auntie Annie's! I'm hungry just thinking about this meal on a cool February morning. As Aunty's Hotpot House is popular, be forewarned of wait times. I'm not sure if they take reservations, but it's worth finding out or allow yourself time to wait. Just don't go hungry or the aroma of broths will make the wait excruciating!

Service and food is always 100% I love eating at places that you walk in and feel welcomed like you're family. Their broth is always spot on. Will always be our #1 spot for our whole family to enjoy. Don't even get me started with the dessert. Trust me, Aunty's will not disappoint!

Hot Soup! Hot Soup! On my first visit to AHH, the warning cry of "hot soup" was heard repeatedly throughout the Friday night dinner rush. And rightly so, as the restaurant was packed with West-siders wanting their hot pot fix. Welcome to Aunty's Hotpot House. NOTES 1. Plentiful parking available at Ka Makana Ali'i. 2. They're able to accommodate separate checks (during my visit last month, we asked for 3 separate checks for a party of 6). The restaurant is bright and welcoming. Seating can accommodate small and large groups. There are heating devices/units on the tables to ensure your soup stays hot....or warm at the very least (the temp can be adjusted). ORDERING NOTES 1. Choose your broth 2. Choose your protein (not AYCE). 3. Order appetizers and/or drinks 4. Select your hot pot "adds" from the refrigerators in the rear of the restaurant. The plates are different price points depending on the colour (similar to Genki Sushi, just not on a conveyor). The price "guide" is above the refrigerators. Once the hot soup is brought to your table, you're ready to cook and eat. I appreciated the variety of choices that can be added to the hot pot. There are vegetables, meats, fish cake, and noodles to name a few. I chose mainly vegetables and fish cake to add to my hot pot broth (kim chee based) along with the pork belly I ordered. After dinner is finished, the staff provide a complimentary dessert of flavoured tapioca that's served in enormous bowl. It was the perfect end to a very filling meal. SERVICE The staff is very welcome, polite, and quite friendly. I appreciated very much that they were able to accommodate our request for separate checks. BOTTOM LINE A satisfying hot pot experience on the West side. Recommended.

Only been here twice and my family and I love it! Service is great upon entrance, during dine in, and when leaving. Staff is nice and makes sure we're okay while there. I must add auntie is very helpful and soooo nice that my kids love talking to her! Haha There is so much variety of food to choose from! Literally a hot pot haven! But they also offer appetizers and other stuff! The place is clean, spacious, and they even have their own big bathrooms. They are kid friendly! Basically, you choose a broth, they'll ask of you want rice, & if you want choose your meats, then grab your dishes of all types like noodles, veggies, seafood, n etc. (prices vary by color), if you want make your own sauce they have a sauce station. And there you have it cook your food and eat! My kids love the complimentary HUGE boba shave ice that they give after we're done eating! Definitely will keep coming back here!!!

Aunty’s Hotpot House Kapolei: Authentic Taiwanese Hot‑Pot Experience
This is one of my favorite places to get hot pot! From my first experience every single worker was hands on and entailing each customers was having a good time. The both was amazing!! Hands down is best broth I have tried for all the hot pots so far! Recommend getting the kimchi soup base! It is all you can eat, comes with a free appetizer and complimentary dessert. The variety of a selection is crazy, love that there is so much to chose from.Definitely will be a new date night spot for my girlfriend and I! Can't wait to come back.
