X-Pot Las Vegas Review
An Immersive Hot Pot Experience Like No Other
X-Pot at The Palazzo brings a revolutionary approach to traditional Chinese hot pot with its high-tech, theatrical dining experience. From the moment you step inside, you're transported into a futuristic culinary world where robotics, LED screens, and premium ingredients collide.
Atmosphere & Ambiance
The restaurant features a stunning cyberpunk aesthetic with floor-to-ceiling LED walls displaying dynamic digital art, creating an ever-changing backdrop. Private dining rooms offer customizable projections, while the main dining area features robotic serving carts that glide between tables. The overall effect is both futuristic and luxurious, with comfortable seating and excellent ventilation to manage the steam from hot pots.
Food Quality & Selection
X-Pot excels in its premium ingredient selection. The Wagyu beef offerings are exceptional, particularly the A5 Japanese Wagyu that melts like butter in the broth. The seafood tower is another standout, featuring fresh lobster, scallops, and abalone. The broth selection includes both traditional options like spicy Sichuan and innovative choices such as collagen-rich golden broth. Each table receives individual induction cooktops with personalized broth control.
Service Experience
Service is generally attentive though occasionally inconsistent during peak hours. Staff are knowledgeable about the extensive menu and provide good recommendations. The robotic elements add novelty but sometimes slow down service when human intervention is needed. Reservations are highly recommended as wait times can be significant.
Value Proposition
While undoubtedly expensive (expect $100-150 per person without alcohol), X-Pot delivers a unique experience that justifies the premium pricing for special occasions. The quality of ingredients and technological innovation create memorable dining that stands out even in Vegas's competitive restaurant scene.
Recommendations
For couples: Opt for a private booth and splurge on the Wagyu tasting menu. For groups: The shared hot pot experience works beautifully for 4-6 people. For business dinners: Private rooms offer impressive tech features that will wow clients. For families: Kids love the robots, though the sophisticated flavors may not suit all children.
