I can not rate this highly enough! The hot pot was wonderful, the menu choice good, the food quality excellent, cleanliness fantastic and service absolutely wonderful.
We had no idea how the hot pot worked and one member of our party had a low spice tolerance but the staff were really wonderful, explaining clearly and answering all our questions, and we had quite a few.
All this would have been enough to warrant this review but then you add robot servers and food on conveyer belts and it just made the experience even better!
Honestly, if you are looking for a unique eating experience in York then I can not recommend this place highly enough.
Outstanding! One of the culinary highlights of our trip! This place deserves more reviews and plenty more business!
Don’t be put off by the dated exterior, this restaurant is one of York’s hidden gems. The food was incredible and fresh with the two soups we had (chinese Kimchi & mushroom soup) tasting amazing and packed with flavour. The staff were incredibly friendly and informative and the robot waiter who delivered our food was a funny and unique touch!
We were in the restaurant for just under two hours cooking our own food and didn’t feel rushed at all and the bill at the end was incredibly good value.
Highly recommended to anyone visiting York!

If ya want a true orthentic style Chinese Hot pot, then Hai zhong lao is the place to visit without question.!!! 🤩😋..
First time eating at Hai Zhong Lao, and on first impression, the restaurant has a very modern Asian design inside with a great layout with individual booths / seating, which gives that bit more privacy to your dining experience. Staff were helpful and attentive, and more than happy to offer any assistance towards navigating your way around the menu.
Offering a wide array of traditional & orthenic foods from Asia style vegetable, fresh sea food or for the meat lovers an array different cuts & skewers. All freshly prepared ready for you to cook either in a hotpot broth of your choice or on the open air yakitori grill. Either way, it makes for an amazing interactive dining experience 🍽..
