What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Da Long Yi Hot Pot is praised for its authentic and flavorful broths, generous portions, and fresh ingredients, making it a top hot pot choice in NYC. Diners appreciate the unique ambiance with spacious seating and thoughtful details. However, some have noted inconsistent service and a few find the 'extreme spicy' broth to be intensely hot.
"Probably the best hotpot in LIC, at least in my experience. The soup was flavorful, the sauce-bar had good variety, the set on the menu had good value, and there's even dessert soup or fruit included for free.
It's really the best thing in the area for those winter days where you crave a meaty broth and meat to cook it in. Nothing much else to say other than the fact it's worth a visit. 10/10"

"We enjoy our hotpot here. The portion is generous and fresh. It’s very authentic taste too. Love their Soju beer set which is prefect match for hotpot."

The 18 Best Restaurants In Long Island City - New York
Located in a big, bright space on top of a mall, the second NYC outpost of this international chain has beautifully carved interiors, right out of an Anthropologie catalog. With a sauce bar and a regular bar, it's perfect for a slightly dressed up evening. The prices are a little higher than some other hot pot places around town, but you get a lot of food.
Traditional Indian cuisine at Adda in Long Island City
Before even the news about LIC being chosen by Amazon for one of its Headquarters, this neighborhood located few subway stops from Midtown Manhattan was up and coming, with plenty of delicious finds there. The last one is fairly new: Adda, an Indian restaurant, result of the collaboration between owner Roni Mazumdar and Executive Chef Chintan Pandya. I spoke a bit with Roni who I met at The Masala Wala few years ago, a restaurant he opened with his dad, Satyen, on the Lower East Side.
