Paradise Hotpot
Paradise Hotpot, at Compass One in Sengkang, is the place you book when the group chat cannot agree on a single soup base. Everyone gets their own pot, so the mala fanatic and the collagen broth loyalist can sit at the same table in peace. Over 100 ingredients move through the buffet line – tiger prawns, premium beef slices, handmade noodles – and you just pick what you fancy. Nine soup bases include a yuzu-infused clear chicken that tastes bright against rich meats, and a spicy Szechuan that builds heat without overwhelming. The premium set adds wagyu and exclusive seafood, and the free-flow yuzu slushies and ice cream round things off nicely.
Arrange to arrive before the dinner wave on weekends—the Compass One crowd moves fast. Once seated, the personal pots transform a potentially awkward meal into a peaceful choose-your-own-adventure. The yuzu collagen broth is particularly shiok on a rainy evening, and everyone leaves happy.
Service is sharp enough that your broth gets topped up before you notice it running low. It is a solid pick for families with picky eaters, or a birthday table where dietary preferences are all over the map.

Guo Fu Hotpot
Guo Fu Hotpot up in Guoco Tower runs an a la carte buffet that started the personal steamboat trend here, and it still feels special. Fifteen broth choices mean there is always something to match your mood – curry beef for a heavy day, millet golden soup when you want something gentler. The real draw is the unlimited xiao long bao that come alongside the usual suspects: sliced special beef, fresh prawns, delicate pig’s liver. At dinner, the shallot pancakes and fried banana fritters are the quietly shiok end to the meal.
Slide in for a weekday lunch; the sleek tower setting keeps things polished for a work outing. Start with a round of unlimited xiao long bao while the team studies the 15 broth options—it buys you time and earns you easy points for the recommendation. The millet golden soup is a gentle, crowd-pleasing pick.
The ingredients are traceable and well-handled, so even the offal taste clean. Great for a date or a small group that wants to take its time. Address: 7 Wallich Street, #02-01, Guoco Tower, Singapore 078884 | Phone: +65 6557 0906 | Hours: 11:30am–10pm daily. Visit Guo Fu Hotpot

COC A Hotpot
COC A Hotpot has been around since the 1980s, and stepping into their Suntec City outlet feels like visiting an old family friend who just happens to serve a very good hotpot. The Thai-Cantonese roots come through in over 60 ingredients, including signature fish glue balls and fortune fish paste you won’t find elsewhere. Free-flow prawns and crabs, a hua diao phoenix soup with subtle herbal notes, and the collagen-rich broths all nod to heritage without feeling dated.
Bring the older relatives here; the familiar, unpretentious feel and rarely seen fish paste will stir happy memories without any fuss. Go for the hua diao phoenix soup—it’s gentle and impressive without being showy. The free-flow crabs make the meal feel indulgent, and the Suntec location means an easy stroll after.
Many families treat this as their default reunion dinner spot, and the service staff seem to remember faces. If you value a sense of continuity and comfort with your meal, this is the one. Address: 3 Temasek Boulevard, #02-440, Suntec City, Singapore 038983 | Phone: +65 6337 6111 | Hours: 11:30am–10pm daily. Visit COC A Hotpot
Suki-Suki Hot Pot
Suki-Suki Hot Pot in Yishun is the halal-certified option that doesn’t make you feel like you are settling. Over 40 ingredients roll out, and the premium tier includes free-flow wagyu beef and Iberico pork that cook beautifully in the Sawadee Tom Yum Goong or Thai basil chicken broths. The clean, bright space makes it easy to bring colleagues for a team meal, and unlimited dips mean you can play with your food a bit.
When you need a halal option that works for a cross-faith gathering, this keeps planning straightforward. The bright, uncluttered Yishun space suits a relaxed family lunch; the tom yum broth has enough kick to keep things interesting. Book the premium tier to treat the table to free-flow wagyu and Iberico pork.
It is the kind of place where the whole family, including the picky ones, can find something they actually want to eat. Address: 2 Yishun Walk, #01-01, HomeTeamNS Khatib, Singapore 767944 | Phone: +65 6257 0888 | Hours: 11:30am–10pm daily (extended hours on weekends). Visit Suki-Suki Hot Pot
Happy Lamb Hotpot
Happy Lamb Hotpot at Pacific Plaza brings Mongolian sensibilities to the table, and it is built for people who take their meat seriously. Four signature broths – spicy, herbal, and two others – anchor a spread of over 100 items where highland lamb, mussels, and big prawns star at dinner. The sirloin slices are cut thin enough to cook in seconds, and the all-you-can-eat format means you can keep going until you are genuinely satisfied.
For a group where spice tolerance varies wildly, the individual pot format here is a social lifesaver—no one has to agak agak the chilli level. Aim for a 5pm Saturday seating, then take your time working through the premium lamb cuts and plump mussels while the dinner crowd begins to build.
Good for a carnivorous group that doesn’t mind the 90-minute lunch session limit on weekdays. Address: 9 Scotts Road, #02-10, Pacific Plaza, Singapore 228210 | Phone: +65 6733 0100 | Hours: 11:30am–10pm daily. Visit Happy Lamb Hotpot

La Jiang Shan Hotpot
La Jiang Shan Hotpot in Parklane Shopping Mall is the one you hit after midnight when the hunger is real but most kitchens have closed. It stays open until 6am, offering 12 soup bases, personal pots with a built-in grill, and odd-but-welcome extras like sushi bites and a DIY snow ice machine for dessert. Mala seafood boats come through as rotating specials, so the menu never feels static.
Alamak, you forgot dinner after a late night? Time your visit for the post-midnight window—the grill-and-pot setup keeps the group energised well past last order. The DIY snow ice machine turns dessert into a team activity, which smooths over any late-night grumpiness.
It is perfect for night owls, supper clubs, or anyone who just finished a late shift and needs a proper hot meal in a lively setting. Address: 35 Selegie Road, #01-27, Parklane Shopping Mall, Singapore 188307 | Phone: +65 6265 8995 | Hours: 11am–6am daily. Visit La Jiang Shan Hotpot
Good Combo Hotpot BBQ
Good Combo Hotpot BBQ at Dorsett Hotel solves the age-old argument of “steamboat or barbecue” by giving you both. Three tiers unlock over 100 items including tiger prawns, crabs, and onsen egg dips. You get your own pot and grill, and soup surcharges like chicken fish maw broth let you tailor the experience. It is a full-scale feast that keeps everyone busy and happy.
Book this when the outing includes both the grilled-meat gang and the soup-sipper types. The twin grill and pot naturally stretches the meal into a two-hour affair, swee for a catch-up with old friends. The onsen egg dip ties everything together neatly, and no one has to compromise.
Great for a mixed crowd where some want to grill and others want to simmer. Address: 333 New Bridge Road, #01-01, Dorsett Hotel, Singapore 059439 | Phone: +65 6538 9887 | Hours: 11:30am–11pm daily (late nights on weekends). Visit Good Combo Hotpot BBQ
How to choose
The right steamboat buffet for you usually comes down to who you are eating with and when. If your group cannot agree on soup, Paradise Hotpot or La Jiang Shan with individual pots save the day. For a halal meal that still feels indulgent, Suki-Suki is the clear pick. Guo Fu and COC A lean into tradition and are great for sit-down family dinners. Happy Lamb is the answer when the whole table wants premium lamb and beef. If you are eating past midnight, only La Jiang Shan keeps the burners on. And if half the table wants barbecue, Good Combo handles it without making you choose.
Prices vary by tier, from around $30 per person at lunch to over $60 for premium dinner sets with wagyu and seafood. Check the individual websites for the latest pricing; most places recommend a reservation, especially on weekends. If you are in the mood for something beyond steamboat, our guide to International Buffets in Singapore might give you more ideas.
