Old Town Hot Pot

If you're vegan and in, or around, Aurora, Colorado, Old Town Hot Pot is a must-visit. This spot has quickly become one of my favorites for a fun and satisfying meal.The vibe is perfect for a casual dinner with friends or a date night. The staff is super friendly and always ready to help you navigate the menu and find the best vegan options.The hot pot experience here is fantastic. They offer two vegan broths, miso or vegetarian, that are both perfect for cooking up a variety of fresh veggies and tofu skins. The vegetable options include goodies like bok choy, spinach, corn and tongho, and their veggie selection has everything from enoki mushrooms to fried tofu skins and seaweed!The dipping sauces are another highlight. There's a whole bar where you can mix and match to create your perfect combo. My go-to is a mix of soy sauce, sesame sauce, chili oil, garlic, red pepper and soy sauce--it's delicious!Old Town Hot Pot is a vegan-friendly gem in Aurora. Whether you're a hot pot fan or trying it for the first time, you'll leave happy and full. It's definitely a place I look forward to visiting again and again.

Great hot pot spot in Denver that I will be back again when I'm in town! We went back in April this year and it was snowing the day we went to Old Town. Perfect weather for hotpot. Service: can't remember the servers name now But he was great. He was very friendly and attentive. Ambiance: minimal decor with the large dining room. It's casual and family friendly. Food: the pot is kinda mini but quite cute for an individual pot. I love that they offer dark chicken herbal broth. I also love the seafood options here that the clams are huge and delicious. Lots of options for vegetables as well. I love that they offer many items on the menu that you don't see in other hot pot place. However, their beef quality is mediocre but justifiable for the price. Overall. It's a great hot pot place for seafood and veggie options. We will return on our next trip!

Food was good, service was quick. Who doesn't love hot pot and alcohol? I was visiting my friend and they mentioned there was a good hot pot place recommended by their nail tech. Flavors are pretty authentic from what I'm use to. I come from a predominantly Asian community in Southern California (San Gabriel Valley) and this place was great. Veggie options were phenomenal and fresh as well. They have tangho (crown daisy) for all your Asian auntie needs. Meats were thinly sliced and fresh. Dark Chicken Soup base- was as authentic as can be. There was a piece of black chicken in the broth, it was silky and tender. You can really taste the hint of herbs used to simmer in the broth.

Enjoyed a great meal here at Old Town Hot Pot on a Sunday afternoon around 2:30pm. There was no wait and plenty of open tables. All of the staff members wore masks, which was nice to see from a health and cleanliness standpoint seeing as they do handle the raw food items being brought to the table. They were attentive, quick and friendly!One thing to note is that if you are seated at a booth, the benches are very hard and uncomfortable after being there for the duration of your meal unlike the cushioned chairs at the standalone tables. My husband and I made the mistake of plopping down into the booth too hard right off the bat and we both went ow! Besides that, this restaurant was delicious and had a nice variety of quality proteins, fresh veggies and carb options to choose from. The individual soup pots are fun and make the experience that much better to be able to try different soup offerings with whoever you're with and you can also control the heat for cooking your own items. The only protein I would say wasn't worth the time or effort was the whole blue crab. It had very minimal meat and was hard to eat as they split it down the middle and don't provide you anything to help crack open the claws. The sauce bar is also a fantastic touch to the place with a wide variety of flavorful options to build your own dipping sauces. I recommend mixing together sesame paste, soy sauce, vinegar, a touch of sesame oil, ginger and cilantro! Don't forget to put on gloves as well to prevent contamination and germs from others touching the spoons. All in all a meal that is worth the price, delicious and the included dessert at the end of our meal had us saying we're so full and can't wait to come back!

First time eating here and I really like the service. Order all the food from the host and each plate is pretty large and you can get half portions if needed. The presentation is great and the soup base can be seasoned as you please. Large area with plenty of seatings.

The meats at Old Town are better than most other hot pot places I have gone to but the broth is not as memorable. I assume this is so, so that the fresh cooked ingredients can take center stage as opposed to the broth stealing the limelight. For more common meat orders, like beef, pork and lamb, I would recommend this place. But for more exotic cuts of meat, I would go elsewhere. We ordered the tripe and intestines from here and thet were not as flavorful as we expected. The jntestines tasted more like gizzards. Then again, the more adventurous meats aren't everyone's favorite.

Found the best time to dine at Old Town Hot Pot was around 4:30 in the afternoon on a rainy weekday. No queue, sat wherever I wanted, and attentive and speedy service. But at around 5:30, crowd started trickling in even for a weekday, by 6 it was packed again.

Okay Old Town!!! A couple of friends have been trying to get me down here alllll year and today was the day i finally got the chance to stop in for lunch! And let me just say..I have been missing out all year long! Came in on a Saturday around 2pm and there were plenty of seats available and no wait time. Our server was super quick and meant business. The kimchi broth was absolutely fantastic! It has a nice little spicy kick, the type that loosens your boogies. It was so good!! We ordered brisket, shrimp and potbelly for our meats and a variety of veggies. The portions are pretty big and could be shared with 2-3ppl but you can def order more as you go. Rice and sauce area was well kept, and I love that they have signs for customers to put on gloves for sanitary purposes while getting your rice and sauce. They have a wonderful Soju selection as well as other alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. They have rooms you can book for larger parties as well. Definitely enjoyed myself! 10/10

This is a fun place to eat with friends or family and opportunity to try a different dining experience. Great selection of everything. Plenty of meats, seafood, and vegetables to choose from. Tables are tight for a group of 6 but made the experience feel like home. Service was very good and the broth was refilled upon request. Servers are friendly and helpful, they answered our questions and explained how service works. No issues with the hot plate settings, everything was working. There's a station with all kinds of sauce and garnish available. The restaurant is very clean and spacious.

Great place! Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday around 2:30pm (past the rush) and the servers were very quick and the food came out fast. I can appreciate that they give the meat portions out generously and also do warn you ahead of time to limit to 2 servings of meat and then adding on since there is a wasted food charge. Delicious ayce meal at a great price point. Very large and open dining area with great ventilation so it didn't feel stuffy at all when eating which is always great.
