Great food. Cool environment. Really good food and large portions. They have boba tea, hot sake, soju Lots of cocktail selections. Lots of selections for food and appetizers. I tried some octopus for the first time. It was surprisingly good! I love bok choy on the grill and lots of mushroom options. Lots and lots of meat options. Lamb, ribeye, prime, chicken, beef, little Vienna sausage, pork, salmon, mussels, shrimp (the chicken and beef bulgogi was amazing.) there is sma sauce bar to try different concepts with appetizers, seaweed salad, fried rice and fresh kimchi. My server was very attentive yet, did not hover. He helped my table with cooking tips. I will be back to try more of the menu.

Very cool interior with attentive staff, and decent kbbq. The inside has a nightlife feel and it’s very energizing. Staff are kind and do pay attention when you want more food which isn’t always the case for AYCE joints. Food is quite good kbbq for Pittsburgh, abliet some of the choices are, well, interesting. There’s a buffet bar that has creamy shrimp (coconut-shrimp-esque) and crab rangoons which are clearly not Korean and felt like cruise food. That section felt like a catering to your average non-Asian American who knows Asian food as the American Chinese food. The selection at the table was good, all of the meat and veggies were solid. Also bless the ability to get romaine lettuce – it’s a banger when eating the meats.
It’s fun to go with friends, but for me and my wife, I’d rather go somewhere more Korean and less pandering to general American tastes.

Our server was so sweet. We had never been and the menu/process was a bit daunting. She was so patient and explained everything and made many suggestions that were perfect. She really made our experience great. I believe her name was Lilian? Delicious food! So much fun.

I found a new addiction! The szechuan Broth is really spicy but its my fave. The Spicy Korean Broth is full of flavor and is good as well! My gf got 1, I got the other but I ended up mixing them and that was a the best decision! Perfect blend of spice and flavor.! The shrimp fried rice is soo good and the yum yum sauce is delicious as well…I pretty much liked everything…except quail eggs…yeah…nkt my cup of tea…
But really decent place overall

First time visiting TopPot Hotpot and it was an excellent experience! The restaurant is clean and spacious, with comfortable seating that doesn’t feel crowded. The ingredients are fresh — the meat is sliced just right, and the seafood tastes very fresh as well. There are plenty of soup base options; the spicy broth is flavorful without being overwhelming, and you can adjust the heat level, which is really thoughtful. The staff are friendly, attentive, and quick to help with refills or changing plates. Prices are reasonable, and for the quality you get, the value is great. Highly recommend this spot to anyone who loves hotpot!

Top Pot KBBQ was such a great way to be welcomed to Pittsburgh. Walking in, the vibe was lively and inviting, and it immediately felt like the kind of place you want to sit down, relax, and eat way more than you planned.
The food was absolutely fantastic. The meats were well-marinated, tender, and full of flavor — each bite had that perfect balance of smoky and savory you want from Korean BBQ. The sides were fresh and plentiful, rounding out the meal beautifully. This is the kind of spot where you leave full but still wanting to try everything on the menu next time.
One of the best things about Top Pot is that it’s open late. Whether you’re a student studying late, a night owl, or just someone craving a solid meal after hours, this place delivers. It’s rare to find somewhere with both quality food and late-night hours, and Top Pot nails it.
The service was equally impressive. The servers were attentive, quick to refill sides and drinks, and always available without hovering. It really made the whole experience seamless and enjoyable.
Overall, Top Pot KBBQ is more than just a meal — it’s an experience worth coming back for. Between the delicious food, friendly staff, and late-night hours, this is easily one of the best spots in Pittsburgh for Korean BBQ. I’ll definitely be returning, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for great food and great vibes.

My friends and I decided to try TopPot Hotpot last night and we were seriously impressed. The place is way nicer inside than I expected. Really clean and spread out, so you’re not elbow-to-elbow with the next table.
The food was great. The seafood was super fresh – the shrimp were plump and sweet. The meat was good, maybe just a tiny bit chewy in some spots, but everything else was spot-on. We tried the spicy broth and it was fantastic; it had a real kick but didn’t just taste like pure heat, and our server was happy to make it milder for my friend who can’t handle too much spice.
Honestly, the service was what really stood out. The staff was so on top of refilling our soup and clearing empty plates without us even asking. For what you get, the price is fair.

A great spot where you can enjoy hot pot and Korean barbecue all in one place! It’s perfect for hanging out with friends or bringing a group (around 10 people works well). The atmosphere is lively, and the bathroom is clean and chic — a nice touch.
The side bar offers a variety of delicious and authentic foods. I especially loved that they provide a menu and guide to help you create your own dipping sauces — a fun new experience! The chairs are comfortable, and the drinks pair very well with the savory dishes.
As a Chinese diner, I highly recommend everyone give this place a try. Pittsburgh doesn’t have many Korean barbecue options, so this is definitely a great place to experience it. I also loved that you get to “cook” the food the way you like at your own table — interactive and fun!
The service-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent hot pot. Their drinks are strong and their buffet options dont seem like an afterthought. I was also very impressed with the meat options. Definitely a must try when in the area

The food at Top Pot & KBBQ is great – fresh, flavorful, and packed with variety for both hot pot and BBQ. The hot buffet items were tasty, but the green beans and cream fried shrimp were cold, like that section wasn’t working. Unfortunately, service was very slow: no explanation when we arrived, grill and hot pot not turned on, no utensils until we asked, server missing for long stretches, and bussers ignoring dirty tables. Amazing variety, but the service and buffet upkeep need serious work. I hope to see it improve and plan to visit again in the future in hopes of a better experience.
