Shoo Loong Kan Hot Pot in Frankfurt am Main

Also something for “Asia beginners”! Absolutely delicious! Very attentive and helpful staff!

We love it! Germany's best hotpot restaurant. Authentic, delicious, rich. Of course, Chinese hot pot is cheaper elsewhere, but hardly better. Ingredients are top fresh, broths absolutely delicious. Our favorite: Sichuan vegetable broth. Plus attentive and fast service and a cool ambience. Even at 150 kilometers away, it's worth a visit, of course in conjunction with other Frankfurt commitments. Since the restaurant is less than 5 minutes from the tracks of Frankfurt Central Station, is located on the first floor and is somewhat above the illustrious things of the station district and also has a smoking balcony, it couldn't be better for us. We'll come back soon. Tsetse.

Just a wonderful gathering. Four of us were here, ordered a little bit of everything...Simply great! Such fast, family service :) We'll definitely be back, it couldn't be better!🫶🏻

Just wow! The food was simply delicious and the service was great! Everything was explained to us at the beginning and then we started. We had hot pot and it is highly recommended. It's a bit pricey (we ended up spending €40 per person) but it's an experience that's worth it. We'll definitely be back.

The perfect place to get together with friends/family for a sensational taste experience. Waiters all very friendly and helpful.

The hot pot restaurant was a great experience! The selection of fresh ingredients and different broths was impressive, and everyone could prepare their dishes to their own taste. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially for those new to hot pot. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, perfect for a social evening with friends or family. We'll definitely be back!

Pot was too deep and way too much broth

Very very tasty. I can only recommend it

So expensive but so good. The set up is so great. Lots of options and varieties for meat and vegetarian. The way you can mix your own sauce is amazing, so many great flavors. I don't know if it's worth the price but it's definitely worth the experience. The staff is very attentive and super fast. I also like that they give you a tablet to order and the way it let's you choose your broth, meat and veggies. I don't know if I would come back since it's so expensive for what you get but I definitely highly recommend checking it out, since it's simply delicious.

It was very expensive but authentic like in China.

The bottom of the pot is so fragrant, the more you eat it, the better it tastes. Two girls eat over 100 yuan. It feels like the amount is less than before and less than the Liu family next door. The Liu family estimates that 70 to 80 can be eaten. But the taste of Xiaolongkan is really good. I feel like I can eat it for 130 even if I go out for it. And more than half of the guests are not Asians. Xiaolongkan has allowed Chinese hotpot to conquer the world!

Hotpot with lots of interesting and very tasty ingredients! Very nice service and friendly atmosphere. The entrance is a bit hidden and you have to accept that your clothes will smell like food afterwards.

Do people really have that much money these days? Do they no longer care about money? That really shocked me. There were three of us and we each paid almost 50 euros and in the end we still weren't full. I don't mean that the price was too high, but there should be the appropriate quantity for that price. The taste was also just mediocre. I am deeply disappointed...

Very authentic. I missed Chinese HotPot so much. It's expensive but as a group it's 100% worth it. We paid €203 for 8 people. Approx. €25 per person. We were there for 2 hours. Everyone was full and happy. At the end we also received melon as a gift.

The food is very tasty and the service is very quick.

Great food. The HotPot is worth an experience. However, it is not the case that the overall package triggers a “wow”. Still everything okay. But you have to pay 50€ per person. count if you want to be full.

Man kann mit Chinesisch oder Deutsch bestellen! Wir Kommen aus Taiwan and das ist echtes Hot Pot, echt lecker 🤌🏻 Very delicious hot pot! It’s a pity that the Benshi pot was out that day! We ordered spicy and tomato soup bases. Next time we want to eat sauerkraut! The service staff are very clear and can speak Chinese and German.

One of the best hotpot places I have ever been! The waiter helped us mix an amazing sauce and the collection of meats and vegetables was great.

Best place for service and food

Hotpot is good here, but if you just order noodle soup, it takes over 30 minutes.

I can communicate in Chinese, and the Ladu clerk said that it is based on mainland China’s domestic standards. If you don’t like spicy food, don’t be impulsive! ! The chili peppers look the same when picked up. Use a tablet to order food, you can order Yuanyang Hotpot, The food was served quickly, but the table was a bit small for the size we went. It’s hard to put the dishes, especially when there are beer glasses on the table. If you miss Chinese food, you can try it, it’s not bad

We made a reservation online and when we arrived on site, they were unable to offer us a place despite the confirmed reservation. The trip to the restaurant was free.

An incredibly beautiful experience!! We received a very friendly welcome and the whole system was explained to us with recommendations!! Super fresh and simply delicious! We felt super comfortable. Would love to come back.

Highly recommended: original Chinese hotspot with an authentic ambience. A restaurant like this is rare in Germany.

Several issues led me to give it 1 star. First, the service attitude was poor. The attitudes of certain waiters towards foreigners and Chinese are very different. One time I called to order food and when I went to pick it up, the boss forgot to make it and kept saying that we didn't confirm it twice. They didn't apologize and made me wait in the store for more than 40 minutes. The train had already left. Second, the food tastes terrible. Can you believe that the most delicious dish in a hot pot restaurant is egg fried rice? ? Third, food safety. Every time I go to eat, I always get diarrhea when I come home. Didn’t food poisoning break out this time? I am responsible for the above remarks.

Here you get super tasty, authentic hotpot with fresh, high-quality ingredients. But what I would particularly like to highlight is the really hospitable and courteous staff. We felt very welcome and had a great time. Thank you for that.

A Chinese taste experience! In a nicely designed Chinese atmosphere. And also with a beautiful balcony over the scenery of the station district. Love it. See you again soon.

Mega Hot Pot in Frankfurt is the best in my opinion

I recently had the pleasure of eating at this restaurant. The restaurant is in a prime location right next to the main train station, which makes it very convenient and easy to reach. The service was super friendly and accommodating. The staff went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible and were always attentive and helpful. What struck me particularly positively was that many Asian guests ate in the restaurant, which for me is a sign of the authenticity of the cuisine. The food was freshly prepared and the ingredients were special and unique. Despite the high outside temperatures of 30 degrees, it was pleasant in the restaurant. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend this restaurant. It offers authentic and high quality cuisine coupled with first class service in a very convenient location. Definitely worth a visit!

Ordered delivery and there was limited selections because we arrived in Frankfurt quite late. The food cost ~30 euros including delivery and tips, it didn’t have much within, just beef stripes, a handful of beef pieces, Yuba and cabbages. Plus it only had pure spicy flavor, no other flavor, I was only able to eat 1/4 of food (considering I can eat pretty spicy food usually). What a waste! Maybe dining in hot pot would be much better but don’t order delivery.

Celebrated Father's day here last week just with hubby and me and it was really overwhelming in a great way. It was an awesome dining experience. 😍 We'll surely comeback again with friends. It was fun! 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Super delicious food and really super nice service! There are also enough options for vegetarians. Because the restaurant is on the first floor, the location at the main train station doesn't bother you at all. It's a little more expensive due to the ingredients, but it's definitely worth it.

Overpriced for little performance

Great hotpot restaurant! Ordering via iPads was super easy and the food came immediately. There wasn't much going on, so we were able to take a look at everything in peace. The selection at the buffet was huge and everything was fresh and tasty. I'd love to come back!

Very nice atmosphere very friendly staff. The environment and the music make you feel like you have traveled to Pakistan. The flavors are intense and spicy!!!

The best Szechuan hot pot in Europe! Just like in China! I love it! We were all very excited. And you can really order all ingredients from frog legs to Wagyo

There were three of us there and none of us had ever eaten anything like this before. We were warmly welcomed and given very friendly instructions. Service was great and the food was great too. As a loaner, I can unfortunately say less about the quality, but everything was prepared and garnished cleanly and with quality and everything was very fresh and clean. We were also helped with sauces and the choice of hotpot. The only tiny flaw was the height of the table and the benches, which were a bit too low and uncomfortable. but otherwise it was nicely decorated. I can borrow it and really recommend it, even if you think of a third-class restaurant when you look at the stairs to the entrance. Is it worth giving this a chance.

Overall the hotpot is pretty good ! But they mixed seafood sauce with the oyster sauce. My DIY sauce became too salty at the end !

I visited this restaurant today with a good friend and ordered hot pot, which we really enjoyed. The various dishes were of excellent quality. The service was very attentive and courteous and is second to none. We will come back!

What a culinary experience! Excellent! It's great that we reserved a table here in time because the restaurant is bursting with visitors! Reservation is necessary. We really enjoyed the very authentic food and service was so, so, so great. Came to us several times and took care of us, describing everything in detail and making recommendations. Super excited

Very tasty hotpot. There is a wide variety of ingredients and the service is quick and friendly.

If you are visiting Frankfurt and are craving for good tasty and authentic hot pot, start walking over towards the main train station. This hot pot place has beautiful decor and atmosphere, staff are super friendly, food choices are plenty and freshly sourced, and they have great wines to pair with your taste. I recommend the local Riesling. If you are lucky, as for the tables facing the train station. If you feel fancy, they have premium. grade Kobe beef from Japan and Australia.

Very fine food, very nice ambience and super friendly service!

Today was our first time at XiaoLongKan and it won't be the last time! Clean restaurant, nice ambience, great and friendly service, delicious food. We were newbies to hotpot and there was a great and understandable introduction. After ordering via tablet, the food was on the table within a few minutes. Everything was explained and we “newbies” were looked after - never intrusively. It was our daughter's birthday and there was even a present from the kitchen! Everything we tried was very tasty. We'll definitely be back. Many thanks to the entire team for this great experience.

There were two of us there today and we chose the vegetarian hotpot with three different soups. Great selection of fish, meat & vegetarian ingredients. You can also choose the sauces at the bar. The waitress explained everything to us in detail and also gave us tips. Very attentive. Tastes very good. Unfortunately, additional ingredients are a bit too expensive, so the two of us paid €80 including drinks. But if you eat the hotpot with three or four people, it's totally fine!

Unfortunately we cannot recommend the restaurant. We wandered around for 20 minutes to find a parking space. The situation can scare you as a family. The tables don't really invite you to eat. Way too deep that my feet can hardly move. The space is also too small for a family with a large selection. I don't think the price is justified for a few vegetables and meat. For 150 euros you can eat better.

Very authentic and very great service

Probably the best you can get in Frankfurt, however, I still prefer the one in Düsseldorf. It’s the same owner but somehow the good, the Ambiente was much nicer in Düsseldorf. Don’t get me wrong it’s still good but if I had a choice I would go to the other one :)

Something different and extraordinary. Were satisfied

Friends have recommended this restaurant but it really exceeded my expectations. Amazing food, exceptional service and situated conveniently opposite from central train station. It is pricey but is ideal if you go big group to share.

Of course the area isn't the most beautiful but it's worth it! Service very courteous and attentive.

Undoubtfully one of the best hotpot restaurant in Frankfurt. Lot of choices to make and quick delivery.

Fast and friendly service, direct location to the main train station on Kaiserstrasse. Accessible via stairs to the 1st floor. A bit expensive for my taste, €100 for two people, including one drink per person. We were full, the taste was okay, but nothing more. Next time we'll go to Pak Choi again.

Really good food in an authentic atmosphere. Be careful with the spicy pots, they are really spicy.

We've been there twice and the waitress gave us very good advice and explained everything. The atmosphere is very nice and relaxed.

We were here for the first time today and the food was very good and the staff were very friendly and explained everything to us. The restaurant is on the first floor and very nice! Thank you for the great experience and see you soon :)

The ingredients are not fresh and the service is poor and was very expensive, won't come next time.

If you want to eat hot pot in Frankfurt, this restaurant is highly recommended! ! The portions are large and delicious, and the soup is flavorful and spicy enough. Whether it is the soup or the ingredients, it is very similar to what you eat in Taiwan. It doesn't have a weird taste like the hand-cranked ones you move abroad. But the reservation service is really hard to describe

It's only business for the lady boss. Came together with a tour group. The lady boss only service the tour leader. Asked her to help refill the tap water, i was given a stare and RBF! Not recommended as we paid not only for the food but also the service!

Only recommended for hotpot lovers.

Authentic Chinese cuisine. Very impressive offering with Chinese hotpot. Lots of exotic dishes by European standards that can be combined in the hotpot.

Wonderful, very very tasty food! You just have to be careful, the sauces are very hot :D

We were there on a Monday evening and had a table in a separate room. The restaurant was later busy and a reservation is recommended. It is located directly opposite Frankfurt Central Station, so it is easy to reach by public transport. The main entrance is a little hidden next to a cell phone shop, but is signposted. The guest room, which was renovated just a few years ago, is on the first floor. If you come by car, there are many parking garages nearby. We were in the Westend parking garage. Bright, clean and cheap. For me it was the first experience with a "hot pot". 3 different brews are offered in one pot. The individual dishes leave nothing to be desired. Fish, shrimp, meat, vegetables and mushrooms. If you like, also pig's feet and beef stomach. But you should pre-order this. EVERYTHING, really EVERYTHING, was of the highest quality. There is a rich sauce bar for dips. I can't say anything about the prices because I was invited. It was the perfect evening. Thanks.

It was probably the best meal I've had in a long time. Just wow. There were ten of us there and just had fun and incredibly good food.

Without joke the best hotpot spot in Frankfurt. have to try it. Authentic.

Location is not the best but the food experience is well worth it

Delicious! We had a very friendly and helpful waitress who explained everything to us in detail. We'd love to come back.

Admittedly, the walk around the main station isn't pretty and doesn't smell good, but once you find the restaurant on the first floor, you'll be very positively surprised. The service is very attentive, as newbies the whole process was explained to us very well and we were given advice on the ingredients. Everything was very fresh and sufficient, we ordered 10 ingredients (mostly vegetables) and couldn't manage it. You can reorder at any time. We'll definitely come back.

Very tasty and very attentive service. To recommend!

Very nice restaurant with extremely nice and helpful staff. Thank you for the lovely meal, we'll be back :)

Everything was actually okay until a cockroach fell from the ceiling onto our table. When we showed this to the staff, they frantically tried to downplay the situation. It wasn't a cockroach but another beetle. It was extremely rude that we were then accused of having planted the insect ourselves. Luckily there are surveillance cameras that can disprove this... I also order the health department, something like that doesn't work!

We really liked it. Staff very friendly and helpful and the food is an experience

The day after I ate it, I developed a severe gastroenteritis. Not recommended

Very tasty authentic food, highly recommended

A very nice discovery!! 💡 Very very good, lots of original and very nice choices 🫡 To be recommended very warmly and without hesitation to French people passing through 🙏😎

Real Chinese cuisine, real chinese ambience, real Chinese experience. I spent some time in China and this was like coming back there! Fully recommend!

Nothing to ad ! It was really amazing and delicious !!

An unforgettable experience, a feast for the taste buds. Absolutely worth discovering!!!

Good food. Good experience. Hot Pot is a good concept where you cook food in boiling broth of different spice levels right there on our table. It’s a bit of an expensive experience and you really have to know what to order. But overall, I loved it. This restaurant seemed quite authentic for the concept.

It was super tasty and the service was great. Highly Recommended

Perfect, friendly and above all a perfect 5/5 taste for the hotpot! Very friendly service who shows you how everything works.

We were guests with the family for our son's birthday. Before we started, everything important was explained to us. Our son was even served extra long noodles for an extra long life on the house for his birthday. The waitress showed the children how to mix the sauces. The food was very fresh, very tasty and very authentic - we felt very comfortable in the beautiful ambience and with the friendly staff. We'd love to come back, thank you for the great time. We recommend XiaoLongKan to everyone who wants a beautiful, out-of-the-ordinary experience!

We had three different broths and the spicy one is very, very spicy. Otherwise everything was very fresh and super tasty. The handmade noodles are highly recommended! Make sure you make a reservation, it's always very busy!

Yesterday I had HotPot with friends for the first time and no place would have been better than this one! When the staff found out that we were eating HotPot for the first time, they gave us recommendations, helped a lot and were generally very friendly and accommodating and made our stay very pleasant, we felt very comfortable. The food tasted really good. There is a huge selection of fresh vegetables and high quality meat. We also really liked the ambience. Rustic and traditionally decorated, the restaurant is very inviting and we will definitely come back!

It was a solid 10/10. The food was great, the atmosphere was wonderful, the staff were super nice and competent. Everything is explained to you and recommended as a ‘newbie’. Be sure to come by! We'll be back😊

The best hot pot place, our Chinese friends confirmed this is an authentic place ❤️ highly recommend.

We were after around 10 minutes. We waited at the stairs with an unfriendly tone and a condescending manner and were thrown out by the boss because we didn't make a reservation. You will not be welcomed in a friendly manner or not welcomed at all! In addition, our clothes now totally stink of food because there are no exhaust ventilation systems in this country. The broth is boiling on all the tables and the steam is literally in the air!

People 10/10 very culinary Chinese food something for everyone from vegan to meat lovers (there are very special meat products). A lot of love behind the kitchen and a very nice waitress. explained everything to us and even gave us a small gesture at the end. highly recommended. one of the top Chinese restaurants in Frankfurt. please enrich the restaurant with your visit.

We ate here for the first time today and it was super tasty 😋 Very friendly staff and delicious food. Happy to come back!

This Chinese hotpot restaurant is really worth discovering! The selection is large and is conveniently offered via tablet, ensuring a modern and efficient ordering experience. The ingredients were consistently fresh and of high quality. The sauce bar is particularly impressive, where you can put together your own sauce from a variety of ingredients - a big plus for individualists. The interior of the restaurant impresses with its authentic Asian design with attractive structures. The prices, although slightly higher, reflect the quality of the food and the overall experience. The staff acts well coordinated and contributes to a smooth process. Recommended for anyone looking for an authentic hotpot experience.

Absolutely recommended restaurant! Very tasty and authentic food, great ambience and extremely friendly, helpful and courteous staff

Definitely would give a 0 star if I could, why would these kind of chinese restaurants even exist? First, as we have already seated as 2 person, a waitress came and asked us to move to another table because they got 3 guests coming. While I understand the need for flexibility, the manner in which we were approached was far from courteous. Second, they treated ppl differently based on their ethnicity, while my Portuguese gf brought her family here, they were charged 3.5€ for small dishes. However, when I was there, they told me they’re free. (This inconsistency is unfair and misleading) Third, the oranges they served have mold on it. This is not only unacceptable but also tarnish the reputation of chinese food. Fourth, my gf has a diarrhea afterwards, leading to me to question the restaurant’s food hygiene standards, which already seems to have a bad fame. Fifth, I don’t mind paying a bit more for good food and service, but for this shxx? This is utterly unjustifiable. It’s not worthy. Hence, I wouldn’t recommend anyone who wants to try real chinese hotpot coming here.

This was the worst restaurant experience so far! After the visit I had bad diarrhea and nausea (with vomiting) since it was the only thing I ate that day, it could only be because of that! I've been to the restaurant twice so far, the first time I was with my parents and the sauces and side dishes cost €3.50 per small plate, but when I was there with my Chinese friend the whole thing was over, otherwise I was honest felt a bit ripped off. Completely different service. Wherever we were seated at a table (which was reserved for us), we were asked to get up after 15 minutes because everyone else came and they wanted to give the table to them. Ultimately I am very very disappointed. The price is also way too high for little food! Vegetables and noodles also arrived before the hotpot, which is very, very strange. We then had to wait 20 minutes for the hotpot to arrive! We also picked up two oranges and one of them was moldy!!! (Unfortunately I can't add videos here!!) I wouldn't recommend it at all!!

The restaurant was very busy on a Saturday evening (reservations recommended). We had to wait another 10 minutes in the hallway with a reservation. The boss then very rudely “kicked” the customers at our table out of the restaurant. Food was very authentic and delicious. Some of the vegetarian options were very expensive. The waitress then explained everything to us and put dips at the table, which you can refill several times at a self-service counter. In the end we were charged about 15 euros extra for the dips?! We weren't told about it beforehand, nor was it on the menu or on the homepage.

Edit: 2024: Still wonderful😀 and happy to do it again. 2019: A wonderfully authentic meal. Be careful: slightly spicy is also very, very spicy 😉. Gladly again....

For the third time and again just cool.

One of the best Chinese Hotpots in and around Frankfurt area. A great selection of toppings and drinks. The service is fast and efficient. If you got out with a group on average you would end up spending 30-35 euros for the hotpot and drinks which includes upto 6 different toppings (meat, veg and dumplings). The spicy soup base was off the charts. 🥵😄

The taste was good, but there was a waiter who acted like everyone owed her a million. There is an elder sister who has a very good attitude

The food is so delicious, the service is good and friendly, you don't have to worry, it's an experience that everyone can enjoy

The restaurant is very nicely decorated. Everything was explained beautifully to us. Everyone was very accommodating and friendly.
