Spice Lamb

Spice Lamb is a new Chinese all-you-can-eat hot pot restaurant on the Upper West Side. Opened in April 2025, Spice Lamb offers an interactive dining experience where guests select their preferred broth, meats—including tender lamb and fatty beef—plus vegetables and noodles, then cook them at the table in simmering fragrant pots. The restaurant is noted for its welcoming atmosphere and is designed to serve both the local community and the large number of Chinese students from nearby Columbia University.

The menu features a wide range of hot pot options, classic and creative appetizers, and “Buy 1, Get 1 Free” specials on items like stir-fried spicy hot pot, curry chicken, and pineapple fried rice. Generous portions, fresh ingredients, and customizable spice levels highlight the experience. Spice Lamb operates daily with service hours that stretch from lunch into late night, making it a reliable choice for group gatherings, solo meals, or casual family dinners. The restaurant replaces the former Miss Saigon and stands out as a hot pot destination in Upper Manhattan, where such options are still relatively rare compared to Chinatown and Flushing. Located at 928 Amsterdam Avenue (between W. 105th & 106th Streets) 646.984.8768 https://www.spicelamb.com/
