" Cao's Hot Pot was a fantastic find. As a regular hot pot diner, I have high expectations, and this place did not disappoint. Their broth was rich and flavorful, and the quality of the vegetable selection stood out. The staff's knowledge of the dishes helped me navigate the sauce bar, which was a delightful experience. I felt welcomed and appreciated as a customer. The only thing I would say is that they could add a larger variety of dipping sauces to enhance the meal further. I'll be a repeat customer for sure!
