ER-GE BBQ & HOT POT BUFFET

Jennifer Schultz 4 months ago

My family of 4 arrived at 7pm for dinner service. Staff seemed inconvenienced when we were dishing up our hot pot ingredients because they were already preforming closing duties (flipping pans and restocking cold line) and we were treated like we were in the way. Everything we grilled had a chemical taste to it. The restaurant was out of stock of MANY items (most desserts, boba) and several fruits were spoiled. We were never offered drink refills and all around treated like we didn’t belong. $35 a person seemed pricy for what was offered.

Wow! Table & Booth seating So many options! Quick grill change. Get skewers, take to your table and they whisk them away to cook and then they send them back via robot. Baby octopus and other seafood options available at lunch time. We'll totally be back!

I am a big fan of hot pots and seafood, so since moving to Columbus a year and a half ago I have made it my mission to try every all you can eat hot pot place advertised to me. The first thing that you see when you walk into the door is a beautifully decorated lobby where I was quickly greeted by the hostess. I was dining alone on Mother's Day evening, so I was expecting a bit of a wait but they were able to get me in right away and seat me. My table was ready with the scissors, tongs, and all the other accessories you need for a k barbecue and hot pot experience. Immediately upon seating I was greeted by my waiter, Tim, where he took my drink order and informed me about the lemons at the salad bar for my water. He took my broth order and then I went on to the buffet. The buffet offers the same standard hot pot and barbecue affair as most all you can eat places, and has a comparable or dare I say larger selection to otherwise similar chain restaurants and a much wider selection than others of similar price points. All of the food was rotated quickly and fresh, And I felt very safe eating the seafood offered at the buffet. I went with some lamb, some beef belly, a variety of

We had a weekend lunch here as a family of 4. It is an Asian Buffet place with nice interior and ambience but very restrictive practices. Service- As u enter ur kids are measured on a scale. 54 inches and above - adult. They give u plenty of warnings whether u want to continue or return. You are not supposed to get ur own cold drinks and water as we learnt hard way. You are not supposed to leave any leftovers as u will be charged $13/lb. You can eat all u want otherwise. There is a BBQ hot plate and 4 hot plates for boiling soup. You cook your own meat and seafood. Staff were stern and condescending and seem to prefer Asian or White customers. Very often pointed us to some written rule on the wall that u can't do this or that. Felt like we were in a controlled China. Food - There are some cooked warm food ready to eat and mostly cold marinated food ready to cook. They provide boiling soups to boil your food. They have large variety of meat and seafoods. They also have dessert and ice cream. Cost- it costed $35 per adult and $18 per kid. Overall, we found the experience being negative for first timers. It is way too much work understanding a complex setup and restrictive policies. W

ER-GE BBQ & HOT POT BUFFET offers a fun and satisfying dining experience with a large variety of ingredients to choose from. The setup is clean and organized, and the selection for both hot pot and BBQ is bigger than what you normally see at similar places. Vegetables, meats, seafood, sauces, and sides are all laid out neatly, making it easy to build your plate and try different combinations. The broth choices and grilling options give you plenty of flexibility, and everything tasted fresh during my visit. The staff stayed attentive, cleared tables quickly, and kept the buffet sections stocked even when it got busy. It’s a great place to come hungry, take your time, and enjoy a mix of flavors in a relaxed environment. Overall, a solid buffet spot with good variety and a comfortable atmosphere.
