KPOT Korean BBQ & Hot Pot

Was a better experience than I expected the food was great. Had a fantastic server definitely going to request him every time I go. It was a nice setup to the restaurant very clean and calming place. Wish the table was a little bigger we had little table space. But overall a great place

My friend wanted to try Kpot. The new KPOT Korean BBQ and Hot Pot restaurant next to Baumhower's. We didn't know what to expect. We went in and were greeted and asked did we want the Hot Pot (meats, seafood, noodles, and vegetables cooked in various broths) or the BBQ (meats and vegetables cooked on a tabletop grill. We chose the BBQ. First, they bring your drinks. Then decide what meats and vegetables you want to try first. This is an all-you-can-eat bar. You go to the bar and select salads, sauces, and appetizers to try. Then your raw food is brought to the table for you to cook. It only takes a couple of minutes, so you cook a couple of meats and vegetables at a time. Basically, you just sample everything that you want. Even though you get enough food to share with each other, you still pay $20.99 for each adult. We didn't care for the various salads. Yes, we tried them. There were a lot of different sauces for dipping and flavoring your food with. There were hot appetizers to enjoy while you waited. Crab rangoon, spring rolls, meatballs, fried onion rings, and sugar donuts. Your server suggests different sauces to try and helps stir and flip the food. There is a lot to chew. The vegetables were thin and good. The meats were so thin that they were tough when cooked. You cannot take any leftovers home. It was quite an experience.

I really recommend everyone should try it, just for the experience. Our waiter Wyatt was awesome he helped us through everything. If you don't want to cook your food they do have an all you can eat buffet bar as well

It's a nice addition to restaurants in town!! There were rooms for improvement for sure but we had a pretty good lunch there. There are a good variety of BBQ meats to choose from. Small portions allowed us to try different kinds of meats. We tried several beef and pork meats and all pork meats tasted kinda weird. I think the pork were not fresh and found the bbq beef taste better. The buffer bar was pretty good. There are some Korean side dishes for us to try - kimchi tasted kinda bad. It's either not very fresh or not very Korean? I don't know. 😏 Other side dishes were good. Chicken wings, nuggets, fries, shrimp boil, etc were available but we didn't try. Spring rolls tasted good. Sesame ball didn't have a lot of red bean inside so it's just ok. Desserts/cakes were dry and not worth getting. We went at 11:15 on Saturday so it was not busy but service were SLOW. After the first order, the second and third order took a long time to come. $29.99 is a fair price for Korean BBQ. We will keep coming back as long as food and service don't get worse than they are now. 😉

A couple of weeks ago I piled my friends in the car and we took a trip to Tuscaloosa to try the new Korean BBQ and Hot Pot restaurant. I have to say that I really enjoyed myself here I was in heaven we splurged a bit and got both the hot pot and Korean bbq. We ended up nearly try a little bit of everything. You could go up to a buffet table and get whatever you want as much as you want from appetizer type food and they even had all types of sauces to chose from. At your table they give you a table to order all your hotpot and bbq items. Needless to say we took advantage of this ordering our broths and all the meat we possibly could order. I highly recommend checking this place out. Get you a group of people and just go and enjoy yourself. For a chain hotpot place this wasn't too bad and I'll definitely go again. I didn't go into too much detail because we ordered so much and I'd be typing all day but trust me when I say check this place out! 4/5 KPOT Korean BBQ and Hot Pot - Tuscaloosa

Great for people who want to go out and have a different cultural experience. The service was great and very helpful. The waiters help us learn everything we needed to know during our first time almost 2 hr stay

Always good to see variation of the food scene in Tuscaloosa. Overall, enjoyed the Korean barbeque style of food here. The quality of meat is a little questionable, but it is understandable given that it is a buffet type of setting. Vegetables are fresh and good, however. I would recommend the place if you want to give Korean barbeque a try in the Tuscaloosa area.
