Yuan’s Hot Pot Amsterdam Valley 袁记串串香 山谷店 in Zuidas

This restaurant is an absolute disaster! The food is so bad it’s only fit for pigs or animals. It’s completely unsanitary – the place is filthy, and even their soup cups, which aren’t even meant for soup, were dirty. The service was atrocious, with rude staff who made the experience even worse. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. They need to drastically improve their hygiene and service, and the food quality is just unacceptable. Avoid at all costs!

Disappointed with my visit. The pot was huge meant for 5+ people, but offered to everyone, which felt impractical. Soup bowls were too small and not clean. Service was poor—slow to bring spoons and bowls. Please improve portion sizes and hygiene.

A completely different way of eating. It took some getting used to at first, but afterward, it was a pleasant experience and a great way to experiment with food and flavors. Everything arrived super fast, and the service was truly perfect. We'll definitely do this again.

One hot pot for a table of 7-8 felt too little that evening cant reach it

Loveloveloveeee this place. Literally my fav place for hotpot! This is my 3rd here and it did not disappoint!!! The service is incredible and the food is delicious. The broth where you boil your food in is perfect. I always get the half-half tomato soup base in less spicy. Can’t wait to eat here again!

It's truly wonderful to find good food that satisfies your cravings. A nice place can greatly enhance the dining experience, making it more enjoyable. Amazing staff members contribute to a positive atmosphere, creating a welcoming environment. Their dedication and service often make a lasting impression on guests. Overall, these elements combine to create a memorable experience for everyone.

Great fun and tasty experience and very sweet service!

Very delicious, good quality and cheap, the boss is super nice, I will come here often in the future!!

I didn't expect to eat such delicious hot pot in the Netherlands! The staff are very nice ~ I will come again

Very good! I have been here three times 😋

I work nearby, been here 3 times already, will still come back, amazing weekly Thursday dinners here :)

Great vibes. Super friendly staff and 10/10 food

What a wonderful culinary surprise! This restaurant combines taste, atmosphere and service in a way that you rarely encounter. Every dish was a work of art — carefully prepared and full of character. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the atmosphere felt warm and genuine. A place where you don’t just eat, but truly enjoy. I will definitely be back!

It was amazing. Food but also the very cute and friendly stuff 💚

We came here for the first time to eat hot pot and it was an amazing experience, they explained everything nicely , calm and took there time for us to feel comfy. Our Waitress was very lovely and asked from time to time, if everything still was ok

Good Hot-Pot. Would recommend to go for the set menus and then add on from there. 😋 🔥

Genuinely the best and most fun eating establishment i have ever been. The food is great, the staff is really friendly, its a great atmosphere and the toilets were really nice. The pricing ranges from 20 to 50 euros depending on how much you eat. If i got the chance i would definitely go here again!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The ingredients are normal, and they also use frozen foods. The service is prompt and good. The hotpot soup is served in large quantities, and they will add more if necessary. The price is a little on the cheaper side. Overall it's good. Personally, I would be much more satisfied if the ingredients were a little more authentic, but I'm a foodie, and I think the quality is good enough for the average Dutch person. Reservation required.

Interesting experience. Great service. Food ... has potential, but it is up to you to make it. Guidelines about cooking time and other instructions seem to be very complicated, however you can do just fine even if you don't read it. Be careful about hot stuff, different foods absorb different levels of hot. The Tables are small, so big group of people would have to split, so can't share experience.

Excellent service, well priced and delicious food. Acoustics could be slightly better, but otherwise fine in a top location.

Our second time here, again very pleasant experience, great food, friendly and helpful staff, grate vibe.

An excellent hot pot restaurant with fresh ingredients and tasty broths. The atmosphere is modern and pleasant, the staff is attentive. Always a pleasure to eat here!

Very cozy atmosphere along with amazing food! This was my first time trying hotpot, and it definitely won’t be my last! 🤞 The atmosphere was very cozy, the food was bursting with flavor, and the staff truly went above and beyond. I visited with a group, and one of us has multiple food allergies. The team handled it with exceptional care, ensuring everyone, allergies or not, could enjoy a safe and delicious dining experience. When a bit of wine was accidentally spilled, the staff responded fast, cleaning it up quickly and even offering wipes so we could treat the clothes and avoid stains. So, would I come back? Without a second thought!

I have always been a loyal customer of Yuan Ji. The hot pot base is rich and mellow, and the ingredients are very fresh. After one bite, you will be taken back to China. Highly recommended.

I saw it more as activity and food than just food. Very nice.

Staffs are very nice. Good food

Yuan's is and remains the best hotpot! Always good quality, delicious and authentic broth and good atmosphere!

We came here with our 2 kids and everything was fantastic: food, concept, service and attention to details! We all loved it!!!

First hot pot meal for me. This was so delicious and fresh. Especially the shrimp and chicken. The pork dumplings are a must try. Might return during my stay in Amsterdam

went with a friend to have dinner and we really enjoyed it. the food was so tasty and the service was really kind and nice, especially a super cute waitress with a piercing.

What an amazing restaurant! The food was out of this world, the best meal we had on our holiday. The service went above and beyond. They went the extra mile. They explained everything so well and constantly checked in on us during our meal, initiating lovely conversation and getting to know us. It was my birthday meal and the staff came to the table with mochi and a little candle in it ( so delicious!) as well as a panda teddy. When I didn’t think it could get any better, they gave me a complimentary Lychee tea (it was divine). I cannot recommend this place enough. If you want delicious (like insanely delicious) food, this is the place to go!

Very authentic Chinese hotpot. Good service!

It tastes really good! ! ! The store clerk is also very enthusiastic 😃

Super delicious, I feel like I’m back home in a second! The service is also very good. The ladies and brothers inside are very enthusiastic. I will eat there again next time I come to the Netherlands.

Wow, what a lovely evening at Yuan's hotpot, Amsterdam Valley. From the moment we entered the restaurant, the staff were so kind, friendly and attentive. The food was delicious!! We ordered the half-half soup base, and a little bit of everything. Favourites were the cut noodles and the beef short ribs. Totally full but thinking about when we can come back next! Thank you !!!

I really like this restaurant. We come here quite often. Pleasant atmosphere, attentive staff, large selection and everything is very tasty.

Wow! Absolutely everything perfect about this experience. So welcoming and fantastic service. The food was delicious, service fast, with humor, not pushy at all, definitely worth eating here! I give a 10!

My first time having hotpot and I think I chose the best place for it. The soups both the spicy and the normal were delicious, many ingredients to choose from and very good quality of the meat. Bonus, the staff were super nice!

You can go once. It was very noisy and I didn't really like the base for cooking the meat.

Yuan’s Hot Pot in Amsterdam Valley is a delightful dining experience! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal with friends or family. The variety of fresh ingredients and flavorful broths is impressive, allowing for a customisable hot pot experience. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that everything runs smoothly. I highly recommend Yuan’s for anyone looking to enjoy a delicious and interactive meal. Will definitely be returning!

I absolutely loved Yuan's Hotpot! It is literally one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam. The food is so yummy, and the staff is exceptionally sweet. Everything is super fresh and the broth is very rich in flavor. Loved the boba as well, they’re not too sweet and come in a fun cup. When they saw I was pregnant, they brought me a little panda to take home for the baby. So thoughtful! 🥹 Yuan’s Hot Pot is definitely an experience everybody should visit!! 🍲🥟🥢

The best food ever! Everything was delicious, and truly authentic! The service was awesome! Staff were very kind and helpful! Beautiful interior, which really brings you in the mood! I definitely recommend, one of the best restaurants in Amsterdam!!

Amazing food, really nice staff who are happy to help. Very cozy interior. Our fave were the rice cakes in the spicy broth. After sitting in the amazing smells inside for 2 hours you can ‘mist yourself off’ before going outside. 10/10 would recommend.

This is super nice experience, also with kids and foods is delicious

I wanted my son to experience a true Chinese hot-pot. Yuan’s hot pot delivered the experience to the letter. The Szechuan spicy soup was proper my spicy. The chicken broth and mushroom soup we took as the mild alternatives were tasty. I love the fact they had the good parts like beef tandem and chicken feet and cow stomach. Service was also very good. The restaurant atmosphere is not that nice, but it is in line with what you have in Asia.

Super tasty food! Super friendly service! Smooth operation! Absolutely recommended!

Lovely experience. Food was great and the staff explained clearly how to cook the food in the hot pot. Everything was tasty and fresh.

What a great experience! The hot pot was delicious, fresh ingredients and spicy sauce. Service was top notch.

Good service, you are really seen as a customer, this has become almost rare in restaurants. Very tasty food and everything is clean and maintained. See you again soon🍲🍜🥟

A perfect dining experience, thank you to the ladies for their attentive service. This store is Eminem’s light! The Netherlands is the strongest! Pearl of Western Europe! First in the universe!

Very good service. The food is fresh and tasty. Highly recommended!

Excellent service and very delicious

Excellent service and food! Black sesame mochi was delicious!

Had a great time. The food was incredible, great choices and our server Mia was very nice and hospitable. Highly recommend this location.

The best Yuanji restaurant in Eminem, good ingredients and good taste, recommend the fresh meat and kelp sprouts

good food and the service was a 100%. verry polite and friendly staff. we ordered waayyy to much for 2 pers and a nice lady was very helpful with her advice en didn’t rushed us when we were canceling some orders. she did not let us feel like we were trouble at all. we had a nice chat with the beautiful owner and will definitely come back! :)))

It was a great experience. We were well served. The staff explained everything to us and looked after us throughout. The staff was so friendly and attentive. The idea is simply great. You order food via an iPad. The food also arrived quickly. Definitely worth a visit ☺️

What a great tent this was, service was really good too 🤩. I had never done this myself, but it was all well explained and helped! Highly recommended

Great ambience Combined with fresh ingredients and food. Restaurant owner is very friendly and she sang happy birthday 2x for our friend who’s celebrating! Kudos to the team here.

Great Service, Amazing Food and a must go for Amsterdam. You can choose what you want to eat via a tablet and they are a very good place to celebrate birthdays!!!

Very tasty hotpot. Highly recommended

Best Hot Pot in Amsterdam! Highly recommend. Great food. Great service.

I celebrated my birthday here and it was a delightful experience. The restaurant offers a vibrant atmosphere with excellent service - a special shoutout to the owner for making our dining experience memorable. We enjoyed the variety of hotpot flavors, with the spicy broth standing out. The food was fresh and the options were extensive. It's definitely a spot I'd return to for its authenticity and warm hospitality.

I absolutely love coming here! Yuan’s Hot Pot delivers an authentic experience that is hard to find elsewhere and I've been here several times. The hot pot is absolutely delicious, and the quality of the ingredients is remarkable. The restaurant sources its ingredients directly from China, which means the flavors are as authentic as you’d get in the mainland. It’s like taking a culinary trip to China without leaving Amsterdam. The broths are perfectly seasoned, offering a variety of options to cater to different tastes, from mild to extra spicy. My favorite is the sichuan spicy soup base. The selection of meats, seafood, and vegetables is everything you can think of, and everything is always fresh and beautifully prepared. I especially appreciate the attention to detail, from the quality of the slightly thicker cuts of meat to the assortment of sauces available to customize your dipping experience. What also stands out is the exceptional service. The staff is attentive, super friendly, and always ready to help with recommendations or to explain the best way to enjoy the meal. Yuan’s Hot Pot is part of a well-known chain in China, and it truly lives up to its reputation here. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic hot pot experience. I’ll definitely be coming back soon! 👌

The food is fresh, the service is very good, and the dining environment is very comfortable!

Good food, good people, good vibes !

Amazing experience, very kind staff and nice food!

Frankly speaking, this brand is very famous. My friends in Sweden said that they didn't have to queue up last time they went there. We ate at a restaurant called Valley. The jelly was very cold, the skewers were average, and the rice was very hard, but the service was very good.

One of the best hotpot in Amsterdam

The environment of Yuanji is super clean and comfortable, and the decoration style is also very unique. It feels like returning to China. It's a great place for friends or family gatherings, and the staff is very welcoming and attentive even though it's busy. Their sauce section has a variety of toppings that you can mix and match. The most important thing is that the portions are generous and the food is served very quickly, so there is no need to wait at all. We also tried the special pot base and will definitely come back next time

This restaurant is really a must-try for hot pot lovers! The ingredients are very fresh and rich, the beef is particularly tender, the vegetables are super fresh, and even the tofu is more delicious than usual. We tried the signature pot base. The spicy pot was strong enough and the mushroom soup was particularly fresh. The combination was very satisfying. The environment is spacious and comfortable, not smoky like other hot pot restaurants. The price is reasonable and the quantity is large. The service is particularly warm and makes you feel like you are at home.

Great service, delicious food! Instagram: mazurmichall

Amazing experience, delicious food and lovely staff ❤️ everything top notch, highly recommend ❤️

Delicious, very delicious, recommended 👍

Nice place, delicious food, good atmosphere.

Excellent place. Great dinner. Very good host

Pure happiness. Definitely going back here.

Book in advance; it's a busy place. We visited twice. The first time, on June 11th, we were absolutely thrilled with the food and service. Everything was explained to us, our orders arrived promptly, and our daughter was delighted with everything—from the children's utensils to the candies and panda headband. The second time, on August 13th, the service was much worse. The rice and noodles we needed to balance out the spicy food arrived closer to the middle of the meal, and they completely forgot the fried rice with egg we ordered (though when we reminded them, they offered to either have us wait or remove it from the bill). Tasty, but chaotic and a bit disappointing. Major pros: + Aprons are provided + They have children's utensils and chopsticks + The rice sticks are delicious—you could order just those + I also recommend the marble beef + Tasty sauces with their own sesame oil Cons: - They turn the stove up so high that the broth boils down quickly (though they come around with a kettle to offer more hot water)—in another hot pot restaurant we visited, the stove setting was more controlled - Not a great selection of seafood—limited and expensive

Food was amazing and service was excellent! There are plenty of parking spots nearby as well. 10/10!!!

Spent wonderful farewell evening with colleagues. Definitely recommend.

As a Dutch person we were very welcomed and guided for the Chengdu style Hot-Pot. The service is a 10/10 they make sure you got everything you need and want. The place is just amazing and would recommend to everyone who wants to try some Chinese cuisine!

The environment was cozy and beautifully designed. 🥳The food was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of flavorful options of authentic Chinese seasoning. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for amazing food, great service, and a warm, festive atmosphere, Yuan’s hot pot is the place to go. It was my birthday, the staff surprised me with a desert, a candle, and even a cute panda marshmallow🥹. Highly recommended!

No trip to Amsterdam is complete without a meal at Yuan’s Hot Pot! This was my first time to this location as I was staying in Schipol. It was a 15 minute drive, so not too bad. Fortunately, I made a reservation earlier that afternoon for a party of 3; I recommend making a reservation through their website ahead of time. We ordered the half spicy and half tomato base soups and went to town on the ordering! Each table is provided a tablet to order each item, along with appetizers and drinks. Everything is reasonably priced and all the ingredients are fresh. The sauce bar is fully stocked and gives you a lot of options. The restaurant is busy, but the staff is very friendly and efficient. It is noisy, but not so much where you can’t have a conversation. I highly recommend coming here if you enjoy Chinese-style hot pot!

We visited as a group of colleagues, and for most of us, this was our first hot pot experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and took the time to explain everything, making sure we felt comfortable and ready to dive in. The experience was a bit overwhelming at first—but in the best, most delicious way! We enjoyed fantastic food, lots of laughs over our hot pot mishaps, and an overall memorable experience. Highly recommended for both the food and the wonderful atmosphere!

It was my first time there and even the first time trying Korean food, and it was a great experience. They are very patient in instructions on what to do, and so om.

I have tried all of the Yuans Hot Pot in Amsterdam and just like the others it is delicious and always fun with friends. I would recommend you the lamb slices and also the enoki mushrooms with beef🤩

All of the food was amazing. The food came very quickly and the service of the waitress was amazing. I want to go back very soon.

First time hotpot and what a great experience. It was clearly explained how it worked and what you can order. Staff are very friendly and helpful. They will also double check whether what you clicked on the iPad is the correct one. We were all really pleased with the dipping sauce and the tenderness of the meat and fish. The broth also tastes good (we found 1 pepper to be quite spicy). Drinks also good and so are the desserts. Price-quality is also completely fine. Restaurant looks neat and very clean. We will definitely come back someday.

Had a lovely experience at this restaurant. Service was impeccable, especially a girl named Julia, who was a flawless server to us. The food came very fast and it was very authentic.

So delicious, the staff is lovely and the restaurant is very nice!!!

Phenomenal unparalleled service from these lovely people! The meats were fantastic, as it was my first time doing hot pot it was really nice to be able to fine-tune how thoroughly cooked I wanted my meat and the 3-way soup pan gave great heterogeneity to the experience. It's also nice how lengthy the experience was in comparison to standard restaurants where you go through a single meal, gives more room for great conversations. 😊 Can't wait for our next visit, thanks for the lovely time!

excellent food and service with reasonable prices!

Highly recommended! The staff are very friendly and since it was our first time eating hot pot, everything was explained to us in a calm manner. You get an iPad on which you can order anything at any time and an apron to protect your clothes. It was very tasty, there were many meat/fish and vegetable variations. Also dumplings, pancakes and also many desserts. You could refill the sauces yourself for free. It's a small restaurant, so it's perfect if you're looking for a quieter place to eat than in the middle of the city. In addition, a lot of emphasis was placed on cleanliness.

The food is delicious. The staff is amazing! They are so kind and helpful. We love coming here!

Yuan’s Hot Pot is the place to be! Friendly service and great, quality food. Always a pleasure 😋

We come here once a month and we love it! We used to go to the other Yuan’s hotpot spots, but this one is more close to where we live. Yesterday we decided to take our families with us, and we had an amazing time. The food is always good just like the service and the staff. The owner is very sweet! It was my mom her birthday and they gave her some gifts and a cute birthday cake with a candle.

Very good, definitely good service, very polite!

The food was very delicious and the service was great. The atmosphere was also very good. I really enjoyed this hotpot, although the less spicy was still spicy. 10/10 do recommend!

The food was very yummy, and the service was also really good the staff were really nice! the atmosphere was also very lovely.

Soooooo delicious and very authentic Chinese hotpot!!!! It’s so damn delicious. All Chinese people should have some regular spicy food! ! Wuwuwuwuwu, I am satisfied with eating it today on National Day! ! ! ! ! !
