Tasty Point (Alameda)

"a favorite hot pot spot in the area - i come weekly for the beef or porcini hot pot! this definitely satisfies my Tasty Pot/Boiling Point cravings."

"I ordered a To-Go a golden spicy beef and it was absolutely one of the most delicious ramen soup I've ever tried. Very tasty, spice level was perfect, a lot of flavors, just mind blowing! I'm hooked!"

"Tasty point is tasty! The hot pots, appetizers and noodles were all delicious. A big hit with adults and kids alike."

"Not many Taiwanese restaurants nearby. Good addition to the Alameda noodle selection that isn't a one-stop-shop of all ethnic asian cuisines (although they do have Korean and Japanese things on the menu, but maybe avoid these?). I can see how they would dial down the tofu stankiness to cater to the American taste buds, but I still enjoyed mine. Lamb skewers and rice dish were great. Taiwanese desserts in general are delicious bc they aren't the sugary diabetes-inducing level at most places. Will be back next time I need a quick fix at the last minute with family."

"Came here for dinner on a recent Friday evening. Our party of three ordered a stinky tofu hot pot, an herbal soup hot pot, and a fried pork chop rice plate. The portion size for each order was very good and service was fast and efficient. The two hot pots were okay, nothing spectacular. Their blood cake was very mushy, the pickled veggies very bland, and there were very few intestines. Also, my stinky tofu was not good at all. It wasn't much different than regular tofu. Their dipping sauces were not very tasty either. The three sauces, Chinese BBQ, garlic soy sauce, and hot chili oil were all very disappointing. The sauces were very sour and lacked flavor and had a very watery consistency. Thankfully the pork chop was delicious. Having lived in Southern California, I've been spoiled by Boiling Point and other local independent spots. I guess this is decent for the area, but I won't be going back."
