Chicago is known for its massive diverse population. This has brought hundreds of people to share their cultures and traditions with this evolving city. Because of this, Chicago has a variety of great food selections to choose from. Amongst all the choices, Hot Pot is definitely a stable for those who like Asian Cuisine.

Hot Pot is a traditional Chinese dish. Depending on where you go, you typically have a selection of broths to choose from. The broths can be spicy, mild, tomato based or can have different ingredients that can differ from restaurant to restaurant (mostly because many places have different cultural roots and influences). This broth is kept hot at the table. Then the customer can choose different ingredients and meats to cook using the broth. This hands-on experience is what many love about Hot Pot. The ingredients soak up the yummy broth flavor that puts regular old soup to shame.

The city can be intimidating and can make it challenging to find hidden gem locations. With the help of Yelp and its avid users, I have compiled a list of the best reviewed Hot Pot places in Chicago. Ranging from expensive luxury places to conveyor style restaurants, you are bound to find an excellent location near you.
