Hot Pot Noodle Pantheon — Restaurant in Paris

My fiancé and I had originally planned to visit a pho restaurant, but as we walked by Chongqing Hot Pot Noodle, the inviting atmosphere drew us in, and we decided to change our plans. It turned out to be an excellent decision—the food was INCREDIBLE. If you like hot pot, you will like this place. For those new to hot pot, I recommend starting with the 1-star spicy level. However, seasoned hot pot enthusiasts will appreciate the AUTHENTIC, robust flavors here. It’s not always easy to do. We are from an area that has so many hot pot places, and this place actually impressed us with its culinary excellence and delicious spicy hot pot flavors. It’s important to note that this restaurant, located near the Pantheon, is not affiliated with another establishment near Palais Garnier; they are entirely separate entities with different owners, despite similar names. The owner here is a trilingual French, Chinese, and English speaker with a background in art history, adding a unique flair to the dining experience. She is very kind, hard-working, and attentive! She speaks mandarin, english, and french fluently. The atmosphere of the restaurant is vibrant, with a soundtrack that cleverly blends French and Chinese pop music. The menu offers a journey through Sichuan cuisine, with the Chongqing hot pot noodles being a standout dish. The broth was rich and perfectly spiced, providing a complex flavor that was both invigorating and balanced. Each dish was beautifully presented, with an evident attention to detail and quality. The fresh ingredients elevated every bite, and the attentive service from the owner herself made the meal even more memorable. She offered excellent recommendations and shared her enthusiasm for the cuisine, making us feel welcomed and valued. If you find yourself near the Pantheon with a craving for authentic, spicy food, I HIGHLY recommend Chongqing Hot Pot Noodle. Frankly, I rarely write reviews for restaurants, but the incredible combination of atmosphere with hot pot + delicious noodles inspired me to write this review. And of course, I feel an urge to support small business owners as this restaurant only opened a year ago. This restaurant not only delivers on its promise of spice but also offers a warm, engaging dining experience at a reasonable price. I hope to return soon for the rest of their...

From the moment I walked in, I felt transported to Chongqing, with the lively decor and spicy aromas filling the air.

Hot Pot Noodle Pantheon was fantastic! Everything about my experience there was perfect. The food was delicious and tasted like genuine Chinese noodles (the chef is from China).
