Great place to go a cold day. This branch is much better than the one in San Mateo (haven't been to the others). If I go here right after getting back from a trip to China I think it's awful. But after a few months of bad Chinese food in the U.S. this spot becomes one of my favorites again.

I read on their website that they had different kinds of soup base, including regular, spicy and vege. However, this place doesn't have vege soup base. The regular base, FYI, is made of herbs and pork bones.As soon as I walked in I could smell the pork bone soup base in the air, which was super gross to me, but I had not seen the menu yet so I didn't leave, thinking they had the vege option. Then I had no choice but got the regular soup base. It didn't taste too bad and I ate seafoods and veges out of it. Then the after taste started to bother me. I never wanted to come back again.

The wait sucks... but you are only waiting because the food is awesome!I try to go when they have the AYCE deal.... $21.99 per person.Personally for me AYCE is too much food but when you go with a decent sized group it is the better deal.beer beef... fish tofu... NOMMMY!SPICY BROTH ALL THE WAY! I think it's made with God's tears.

One of the better places for hot pot, do expect a very LONG wait though. The thing that makes Little Sheep Hot Pot stand out from other hot pot places is the variety. You check off from a paper menu the items you want them to bring...all kinds of meats, veggies, seafood, etc. Their in house freshly made meatballs is something you can't find at any other places. You have to get the meat balls if you come here, soft fatty goodness. We made it easy on ourselves and ordered the sampler of everything: meat, veggies, seafood so that we could try a little of everything. A fun place to go with your family or a group of friends so that hopefully you can try almost everything on the menu like we did!

This place get VERY crowded on cold days/nights. Come early. I usually got the half spicy and non spicy. Wear clothes that you can take off and toss it in the wash when you get home. I used to go often until I saw how much sodium is in the broth.... I found this out when I went to the Asian grocery store and they had the broth packets that you just add water. It was a crazy amount like 1200mg to 1800mg per 1/4 of a cup..... *faint* No wonder I puffed up so much the next day. I knew there was a lot but not that much! If you don't have high blood pressure issues then I would highly recommend this place.

I've had Vietnamese, Chinese, and Japanese hot pot. This was my first experience with Mongolian hot pot and it was DELICIOUS!!!!I've only had Mongolian BBQ and was wonderfully surprised by the flavorful broth. For three people, we got the 1/2 and 1/2, 1/2 original and 1/2 spicy. The original was very flavorful and tasted like similar Chinese broths I've had. The spicy was the complete opposite - it actually tasted like some Indian foods with all of the spices. My favorite part was actually mixing the two broths together in my bowl - yummmmmmmm!We got the vegetable plate, tofu plate, shrimp with head on, fish balls, and a few other things I forgot. Since we were with vegetarians, we didn't get a chance to try the meat, but that was okay because everything else was so good. I loved all of the vegetables they gave us (although I felt they cheated us a bit on the salad, which I wouldn't normally put in broth, but that might be something about the culture I just don't know about). The fish balls were really good (not too fishy), and they tofu plate came with a LOT.The minus one star was for the fact that their spices were all over the broth (instead of in a cheese cloth) and we had to spend a lot of our time taking the spices out of our bowls (that's wasted time to eat, people!!!) Again, I'm not sure if this is how Mongolian broths are typically made, but I just wasnt' used to it and had a huge mess on my hands at the end of the meal. The spicy broth was also wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too oily. I got full just from one bowl of that, which means it had too much oil in it since I think my stomach is pretty much the size of a dump.

Love this place. They have the BEST lamb wontons on earth. Meat and veggie always fresh not to mention the awesome herbal broth which instantly warms you up! I don't come here enough.

As expected, this place seems much more crowded during the cold winter. If you come before 630pm on the weekend, the wait time shouldn't be that long. but during peak times, without reservations, it could up an hr plus.in terms of broth, you can get the non spicy, spicy, or the split having both which is what we usually do. both are good, and both compliment each other. we would recommend that one so u can try both flavors. as for the lamb, the best cut is the shoulder cut. there are premium meats also, but those are around 15 dollars a plate. we've tried the majority of the dishes here, and from out point of view everything is very fresh from the meats to the produce. also, there pretty nice on the portions per plate, compared to other hot pot joints we've checked out. whatever you order, make sure to have a balance of meats, seafood, and produce.This place is great for small to large groups. also, for people who are new to hot pot this place is a great start for you guys. the staff are helpful if you have any questions on the product. final tip: the union city restaurant is much larger then the cupertino one. if its a two hr wait at the cupertino restaurant, chances are it'll only be an hr wait in the union city store.

) for a table of four and was told the wait was 15 minutes. There were open tables and no one else was waiting. The party of four immediately behind us (again speaking Mandarin) was then seated at a table while we waited. ...?

to eat at Little Sheep tonight because the restaurant DISCRIMINATED against us. They were plenty busy when we arrived, but still there were tables open. The party of four in front of us (speaking Mandarin) got a table. We asked (in english) for ...?

This is cool place and especially if you like hot and spicy food then this is surely best bet!!! If you are first timer then seek help of serving staff or try their authentic hot pot with either tofu or chicken breast slices and try half N' half soup with steam rice. Rest is best luck..?
