First impression is very clean. Each table has it own tiny trash can. Restroom is also pretty clean. Price is reasonable. Sturgeon Hot Pot is so good, the broth is not too sour, the fish is fresh. We order the small size and we got 1 thick slice (2 pcs), very reasonable for sturgeon’s price. Fish sauce fried chicken and frog were good. I just wish it less sweet would be perfect. If you can eat organs, the deep fried pork organ is a must.
We ordered beef hotpot, it came with a great portion of beef and vegetables.
The shrimp cake is quite special and tasty, must try!
Will come back to try different hotpots 👍
Bay Area Snow!
The weather is strange with clear skies on one end mixed with flooded highways and snow at the other side of town
🤷🏻♂️ well, either way, it’s hot pot weather
Headed to San Jose’s Little Saigon for Vietnamese Hot Pot at Lau Hai San
Sampled a rare beef salad, a Tamarind beef and their signature seafood hot pot
Flavors are spot-on and the noodles are bomb

First time trying Vietnamese hot pot and banh khot. Amazing flavor and great price.
Tried the seafood hot pot recently, and it was so delicious! I wish I had found this place sooner in San Jose, because it would have been my go-to spot from the beginning!
Small parking lot so leave time to find parking. Definitely a place where food is star but not fancy. As one reviewer noted, it’s a no frills kinda place.
We got the seafood medium and it came w side of white and yellow noodles. Cook things in order (cook what takes longer first and seafood last!) for optimal eating experience! I loved the soup and everything was fresh and delicious 😋
We always order the spicy Thai seafood hotpot and we love it. Extra fish balls with roe and extra egg noodles. They were also really good at refilling our drinks. Great place.
Apparently every single person comes here and order the #38 "Thai Seafood Hot Pot" because that's all the pictures I see. And it's no surprise because when I asked the waiter what was in the Chilean seabass hot pot, she answered "only fish". The sea food options came with a good variety, including shrimps, mussels, clams, imitation crab sticks, fish balls, some green vegetables, and your choice of egg noodles or vermacelli (you can also order half & half). The broth had a pleasant lemongrass fragrance and was very flavorful, similar to a Tom Yum soup but sweeter. I would also recommend #1 banh khot (crispy shrimp cups) and #12 fried pork intestine (with green onion inside) , both were super delicious
Tip:
1) Credit card is accepted
2) Mix some chili sauce and fish sauce will make it taste better
Forever our favorite place in the Bay. Affordable price, fresh and authentic seafood hot pot, great customer service.
Lau Hai San is Vietnamese hotpot. There are several kinds of hotpot you can choose, and the best is seafood I thought. Overall,the price is really cheaper than normal and food is also great.
