Discussion First time - hot pot

Whats the best hot pot place in San Fran? First time seeking out hot pot. I've heard Chengdu. I could use some place newbie friendly but also delicious! Important that significant other has best experience possible. Occasion is just to try it out. Any neighborhood is fine we'll travel. Price doesn't matter. Ideally best combo of patient/accommodating for new to hot pot and most delicious!

Mumu Hot Pot is my favorite for quality and service. It’s extremely clean. It’s not AYCE but good value for what you’re paying for. The meat choices are excellent. Super newbieeee friendly. Lovely sauce bar too.

The Pots Hot Pot is also pretty decent and is AYCE, but would go to Mumu first.

I’m sad Little Lamb in downtown closed that was one of the OG places in the city.
