The atmosphere is described as spectacular, contributing to a first-class dining experience.

A weekday lunch special is also available for $19.99 per person (excluding tax and beverages), offering a more affordable option. Customers have specifically enjoyed the lamb and found the beef to be good, although some found it to be fatty. The dumplings are also a popular item.

Squares Hot Pot was an absolutely exquisite experience! TL:DR Snapshot 3 different pricing tiers for all-you-can-eat ($40, $50, $70) that correspond to what kind of Wagyu you get. The rest of the ingredients, veggies, seafood, and more are buffet style. I suggest if you're new to hot pot, have the waiter help you out ordering and make a sauce for you. I also believe that the best way to experience this restaurant is getting the most expensive option and going here on a date night or special occasion. Full Review: Upon walking in the door, there was absolutely no wait and we were seated immediately. Our server was extremely polite, knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful in explaining to us how the hot pot restaurant functioned. He gave us plenty of time to look over the menu, helped us order when we were ready, and even helped us with our buffet ingredients! The 3 different pricing tiers correspond each category of Wagyu: - USA ($40) - Australian ($50) - Japanese ($70) It's all-you-can-eat, but the process is partially ordering the entree items (super easy and on an iPad), and buffet style for drinks, veggies, sauces, and sides. After ordering, the waiter brings the hot pot soup base before serving the ordered entrees. Everything else is for you to go to the buffet and grab as needed. Our server was very attentive and accommodating, accompanying us to the sauce bar after bringing out the food so he could make for us some pro sauces. Upon getting seated with everything you could need or want, the experience truly begins. Make sure to give all the food appropriate time to cook if you are new, and remember to eat slow so you can keep trying everything you're sampling. Conclusion: The food was absolutely excellent at this restaurant and everything was most delicious. The atmosphere was spectacular but what really made this a first-class experience was the service. Without the waiter that we had who was so present and hospitable, the experience just wouldn't have been the same. I would highly suggest Squares Hot Pot to anyone seeking a special and delicious restaurant meal, regardless of any previous experience in the hot pot specialty.

Went here during weekday lunch. They have AYCE which costs $19.99 per person( without tax. No beverage) I would say for the price is a good deal. I personally like the lamb. Beef were good, but too much fat for me. I loved the servers. They were so nice and friendly. Btw, I like dumplings.

We usually get the $40 option. The ribeye wagyu and fatty beef taste great. The lamb shoulder is too lean. The wagyu over rice is too sweet, and the fried buns are not crispy at all, so don't order those. I like the free Thai tea (goes great with the spiciness) and the Oreo bingsoo too. The fried buns are good. Edit: I always get very bad diarrhea after eating here. I must be lacking an enzyme to process some of the spicy stock or something. I tried using the regular chicken stock, but I still got an upset stomach (though not as bad).

Very authentic Chinese hot pot, my favorite in DFW! Their soup base and dip sauce are very flavorful. They also have fresh lamb meat available. They have a great variety of drink menu, including a lot of Chinese brands of tea and milk tea. The service is very quick, you're pretty much getting served right away without waiting in lines or sitting in front of empty tables. The waiters are also nice and experienced, making reasonable recommendations on spicy level. They play mandarin pop songs in the restaurant, which is quiet and enjoyable. The price can be a bit more expensive than some other places in the area, but the quality and experience are totally worth it. Absolutely a hidden gem 👍

There's a few hot pot restaurants in this area between Coit and highway 75 that I frequent, but if I had to choose just one, Squares would be my choice. It's cozy on the inside, and servers usually give you more attention than other places. I've never had to wait for a table before (though I have seen a line after being seated). We've had the a-la-carte and all-you-can-eat options and both are decently priced. Although I like my broth spicy, others in the family can't handle the heat. Fortunately, there's a divider so you can order both at the same table. All the protein dishes are delicious while the vegetable portions are very generous. And, of course, no hot pot is complete without the sauce bar. They have the usual chilli oil, garlic, cilantro, peanuts, green onions, etc. as well as French fries, sesame balls, shrimp chips, and dessert.
