Description

Panda Hot Pot is a premium Chinese hot pot restaurant group with three locations across Melbourne (Carlton, Carnegie, and Box Hill). Rooted in the spirit of "聚 (Jù)" — celebration and togetherness — Panda Hot Pot offers an immersive dining experience inspired by ancient China and the Wuxia (martial arts) tradition. Guests choose from more than 100 premium hot pot dishes, up to two soup bases, and customisable dipping sauces, all cooked fresh at the table. Ingredients are sourced from their regions of origin across China to ensure authentic, high-quality flavours. Beyond the food, Panda Hot Pot is known for its elaborate décor — including a 1.5-tonne suspended dragon — and nightly live entertainment such as Sichuan Opera Face-Changing shows, traditional Chinese music, and classical dance, making it one of Melbourne's most distinctive dining destinations. The venue also offers cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, and has been featured in outlets such as The Urban List and Channel 9.
