Another spot that I was afraid might have been overhyped by all the videos that I have seen online. However, they did not disappoint! Huge line out the door but since it is in the mall, I just recommend dropping your name and then walking around the shops in the meantime. The staff is quick, efficient, and nice. The seating is comfortable and ordering process is on electronic tablets. Very easy to scroll through the menu and look at the pictures if you are not familiar with hot pot. We really enjoyed all the meats, veggies, and you have to get the dancing noodles. It can get delayed but it is quite entertaining when they come around and put on a little performance with the hand-pulled noodles. It can get a little pricey but we did expect that from such a well-known chain. The only con is that the sauce bar is priced per person. I have never been to a hotpot place where you had to pay for the sauce bar. I guess they also include like snacks and desserts so that kind of makes sense. Would recommend trying out one of their locations if you are looking for an entertaining (non AYCE) hotpot restaurant.
Now for my standard comments. The location is clean and well kept. Comfortable indoor seating.

The customer service was top-notch! Every request was handled with a smile, and the staff genuinely cares about their guests. The food is simply outstanding. Every ingredient was fresh, and the hotpot broths are packed with flavor! Great drink selection! The iced teas were refreshing, and the specialty cocktails paired well with the food. The ambiance is just right – stylish yet comfortable. You can feel the attention to detail in every corner.

Went here on a weekday afternoon because ramen nagi was closed. There were just a few staff available and they were rather quick and dismissive, unlike their Chinese counterpart. Food is quite the same in fact several with more choices. Lovely place for a family meal.

Haidilao Culver City is hands-down one of the best hot pot experiences in LA! From the moment you walk in, the service is exceptional — warm, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful. The staff makes you feel welcome and well taken care of throughout your entire meal.
The food? Absolutely top-tier. Everything is fresh, high quality, and beautifully presented. The broth options are rich and flavorful (highly recommend the tomato and spicy duo!), and the dipping sauce bar is a dream for customizing to your taste. Meat, seafood, veggies, noodles — all perfect and replenished quickly if needed.
The little touches make it extra special: complimentary snacks and drinks while you wait, fun robot servers, plastic covers for your phone, hair ties if you need them, and even a warm towel service. The attention to detail is next level.
Perfect for group dinners, date nights, or just treating yourself to a cozy, interactive meal. Once you try Haidilao, you’ll understand the hype. This Culver City location is clean, stylish, and worth every penny.

My friend and I first tried Haidilao and it quickly became our favorite restaurant in LA. Their service is always amazing and food is incredible. I love how we get to customize our own topping and sauces at their bar and also try a bunch of little complimentary snacks including fruits. I’ve been coming to this location several times now and they never disappoint. I’m also in love with their bbq flavored chips!! 🙂
