About this spot

Happiness Hot Pot 囍火锅 sits on Fremont Boulevard with a retro Chinese decor and classic music that sets it apart from the more modern hot pot spots nearby. The casual room has a lively feel suited to groups and longer meals.

The broth menu centers on Chongqing beef tallow, a Chongqing clear oil vegetarian option, and a half-and-half pot for diners who want two flavors side by side, with adjustable beef tallow, chili, and numbing levels. Standout dishes include Lao-style fresh leaf tripe, Australian lamb shoulder, Kobe beef served at a choice of temperature, and quail eggs prepared several ways.

The sauce bar and broad ingredient list, from marinated delicacies to fresh seafood and bean products, make it easy to build a meal around personal spice tolerance. It's a strong choice for a Sichuan-leaning group dinner, with reasonable prices and on-site parking adding to the convenience.
