Smile Hot Pot & BBQ

The food was great! Could use maybe a little more seasoning for some more flavor but absolutely 10/10 highly recommend. The drinks are small but really good. The staff is fun and entertaining. They didn't really come check on us much I had to go find him but other than that it was a wonderful experience! I posted the picture but forgot to show the waiter for the 10% discount I was so distracted enjoying the experience!

It was my first time trying hot pot, and honestly this place left a good impression on me. We never knew about this place till we saw it on Google Maps, and it did not disappoint. Food was so good I literally craved it the next day. The staff was nice and the atmosphere feels welcoming. Would go here to have hot pot again or try out their BBQ 🙂

This was overall an extremely lovely experience. Definitely something Grand Junction sorely needed and it definitely delivered. When we walked in we were greeted by a very welcoming and sweet server. She checked on us a few times throughout our meal and was a ray of sweetness and positivity. It didn’t take long to take our orders and for our food to get to us, and it was presented beautifully. (And the restaurant had quite a few people in too) I’m a stickler for quality vegetables but the vegetables looked beautifully fresh and were very crisp and delicious. The meat was also fresh and tasted wonderful. If for any reason you’re confused about the process the servers will gladly help you through it. The only note I would add is if they had bigger sauce containers or options for custom sauces it would be perfect, but if you run out of sauce they’ll gladly get you more. I just hate bugging servers for something like that but that’s more of a me thing. If you’re curious, here’s what my fiance and I ordered; Beef NY strip, Pork belly, glass noodles, udon noodles, and the small vegetable set. I highly recommend and you should seriously go support it!

Pork belly medium spicy👌Go to their website and order one to go. Yes Lord, the mushrooms are the real star here. I would give them a 6th star for how friendly and kind they are nice people and they hook up the sauce game. 🙏🧘‍♂️

Great hot pot and BBQ spot in Grand Junction. They have option all you can eat or order as you go. We chose order as you go as we didn’t want to over eat. Their broths were really good, would highly recommended. They have room to accommodate big party also.

Everything was fine, food was good, service was good, atmosphere was OK. Things felt a little cramped on the table when eating and if you have the table grill going things literally heat up. Overall if it’s your thing you’ll like it but starting at $13 for a pot of broth and a side of veggies (veggie plate would probably serve two) the novelty isn’t worth the price of admission more than once unfortunately. The food was good, the meats and vegetables looked fresh and the quality on everything was high. The steamed buns were soggy on the bottom and dense/chewy on top.

Took my family there for my mother's birthday, just to try it. We had never done a hot pot place before. The staff were so friendly and took their time showing us how everything worked. The food was amazing, and we really felt welcome there. Absolutely go check it out, you won't be disappointed!
