    First time here but Chiba didn't disappoint. Menus were pretty extensive with choices that tailored to your taste no matter what you liked. All meat and veggie ingredients were fresh. It's my personal preference not to use any sauce at all which otherwise would mask the wonderful original favors of the food.

    Very disappointed this trip! Did not receive the deli meat for the soups and they were out of Ramen. Service wasn't terrible but not the best. They did give me a 20% discount and they were polite but my time and money was wasted.

    So I am rating this a 4 because of a combination of things. First the experience is really cool. You get to choose your food from a conveyor belt to add items to your hot soup. A train and a robot with waiter will deliver grilled items. The food quality was okay. Ranging from fresh to low quality for some items. Plenty of shrimp in the shell, oysters, blue crab, couple of different noodles, the typical Asian stuff to throw in the soup of your making. I ate about 4 bowls with plus some grilled items. The desert items were not very impressive and a but anti climactic after the dinner. The service was great the staff worked super hard and did an awesome job for this grand opening. Price with tip and taxes it is about $40 for this buffet. I saw some folks really putting in the work.

    This place was so fun! Not kid friendly! The staff was so sweet and attentive! The food was on a train or conveyor which was really cool! I was absolutely stuffed by the time I left. It is a little pricey but for all you can eat, it's well worth it. They had cool decorations on the ceiling!

    It made my Saturday lunch time very fantabulous! I was very happy and super full from all the food selections here. The service was awesome and didn't mind to pay the weekend dinner price of $28.99 per person. Was definitely worth it. I skipped eating dinner coz I was literally stayed full leading up to dinner.

There is a never ending menu with endless amount of meat for the grill and for your soup and sides for your meal and also have a good variety of noodles for your soup. The atmosphere was very shadowy and had a speakeasy vibe. They also sell mystery box plushies and have a Pokémon vending machines with a wide variety if you like collecting them. As for the price its very reasonable and is such a vibe.

    Wish I could give them 20 stars! My friend suggested we try this place out and as neither of us…read morehave ever been before we decided to try it. And I'm so glad we did! The service was top notch Kevin our waiter was perfect, he explained exactly what us first timers needed to know (we opted for the BBQ vs Hot Pot) and gave excellent amount of service without interrupting too often, but without ignoring. And now my favorite part the food.... We ordered the following for our meat selections: Prime Beef Brisket, Spicy Beef Bulgogi, Garlic Chicken, Pork Belly, Cumin Lamb and Garlic Shrimp. For veggies: Shiitake mushrooms, Mung Bean Sprouts, Onions, Bamboo Shoots, Eggplant, Zucchini and we topped it off with a pineapple drink. My friend said the veal and the pork belly were both delicious, I don't eat either so my review is based on everything else. OMG the flavors were so packed into the meats they needed nothing else. The spicy beef bulgogi was by far my absolute favorite (I polished off two full servings myself) the spice profile was so perfect that it enhanced the beef without masking the natural flavor and the use a good quality beef as well so any toughness is due to your own over cooking which still didn't happen. The shrimp and chicken came in tied for second place for flavor bomb, I'm pretty sure they marinate this stuff for days for it to taste so full of flavor! There is also a fully stocked "Sauce Bar" with so many different kinds of sauces and additions. The inside is very large, but not loud and they have a full bar for those who wish to sit there. If you haven't tried them yet GO! You and your stomach will thank me.

There's a separate menu page dedicated to their new broth selections including Tom Yum, Golden Chicken, Spicy Miso and so much more. They've also introduced new hot items such as Soup Dumplings, Hargau, Siu Mai, and Tempura. These small bites were perfect palate changer between rounds of hot pot. The cuts of meat for hot pot were incredibly tender and the wagyu offered was beautifully marbled. Although each slice was generously cut, they were easy to split and share with the table. One of the highlights was the self-served shaved ice machine, a refreshing and sweet treat to perfectly end the meal. Prime Beef Shabu is currently one of my favorite places to get Hot Pot. The restaurant is clean , efficient, and ideal for enjoying a family styled dinner with loved ones.

We checked in and were told the wait without a reservation for 4 would be 20 minutes but they actually seated us in about 5. Seating capacity is 98. They took our order quickly and the meats came out fast. Just in case, there are items that cost extra like the wagyu. I had the house spicy broth. I thought it was pretty good and not too spicy for me but the wife was choking with the spiciness. We normally get 3 rounds of meat at kpot but we only went through 1 round here because the serving portions are larger. I was asked about or inquire about the "member price" shown on the menu. The wait staff came by frequently to clear plates and trash.

    We love Happy Lamb Hot Pot! This is our go-to location that never misses…read more We're thrilled about them adding the Tom Yum broth base- it is absolutely delicious. We've previously enjoyed doing the best of both worlds pairing, but since they've added Tom Yum, we now do the pot split 3 ways. The self-serve buffet always has fresh veggies and seafood choices. Our favorites include the spinach, bok choy, shrimp, clams, sweet potato, corn, and pumpkin. I think they've done away with the lobster balls which used to be my favorite, but I've since switched to dumplings which are tasty. I love the items from the hot bar- the orange chicken is yummy. The service here is always attentive and friendly. Hot Pot here always hits.

    My friend and I agreed that a celebratory hot pot was the perfect treat after our climbing sesh,…read moreand I've been meaning to try Happy Lamb for a while! Service was fast, and what seemed like a seemingly small building was actually bustling. We ordered the Best of Both Worlds option and requested the Spicy Bone Marrow along with the Tomato Broth; they complement each other quite well, with the Spicy Bone Marrow being our personal favorite. It is definitely spicy, but nothing that I couldn't handle. The Tomato Broth was delicious as well, but added a nice sweetness to our meal. We chose the Classic All-You-Can-Eat lunch deal, and ordered a plate of the Natural Prime-Aged Lamb, the Hand Sliced Beef Short Plate, the Marinated Garlic Beef, and the Pork Belly; I can't say I'm a huge fan of how they divided the meat selections, however, since I could get premium meat elsewhere without being limited. But overall, the meat was of decent quality, and the buffet offered various options. Compared to other hot pot places, they even had a section where you could serve yourself egg rolls, white rice/fried rice, and stir-fried noodles, though I can't speak to the quality... very much buffet-quality if you catch my drift, but still lovely nonetheless. Similarly, you can fetch your own iced drinks and dessert too. I do wish Happy Lamb's sauce station had special pre-made flavors or instructions for making them, much like Shabu Zone or Haidilao; sometimes I don't trust myself to freestyle my own sauce. There are some cross-contamination concerns as well, since there'd be about 4 tongs at foot/pants level, but at least 9 food options (e.g., noodles, dumplings, veggies) to choose from. Not sure if other people share the same sentiment, but I guess they all get boiled in the end anyway. Overall, it's a decent option if you're in Downtown Houston! But I wouldn't call Happy Lamb my go-to spot.

We rolled in as a group of three with split preferences -- two hot pot fans and one BBQ fan -- and ordering both kept everyone satisfied and let us enjoy the best of both sides. The selection is the highlight. Tons of appetizers and meats, and they were all amazing: fresh, varied, and fun to cook and customize at the table. Fair warning though - take it easy, because there's a ton of food and it's easy to overdo it early. Pacing yourself is the move. Everything was delicious and the staff were genuinely nice, which made the interactive cook-it-yourself setup easy even on a first visit. Great spot for a group hangout. Solid 5/5. We'll be back!

They've added some new items like enoki mushrooms and other traditional Korean/japanese items to the hotpot bar which was really nice. Making our own sauce is always fun too.

    Came here with my coworkers. I've been here several times, but I haven't been here in over 2 years…read moreso I was nervous that it'd be drastically different because I loved this place. They did change the menu a bit, but it had what I exactly wanted. We ordered the Szechuan Mala Spicy Rice Noodle Bowl w/ Beef Slices, Popcorn Chicken, Shrimp Tempura, and Xiao Long Bao. The noodle bowl is the best. Tons of flavor and ingredients with the vermicelli noodles are just amazing. The popcorn chicken is delicious, nothing special. The shrimp tempura is delicious and has an amazing crunch. The Xiao Long Bao is more of a soup dumpling dim sum style. It was pretty delicious, but it didn't taste really fresh like you'd get from an actual dim sum restaurant. The staff are friendly and fast. Lots of tables to dine at. Parking lot is a bit small, but you can park on the other side of the buildings where there are more parking.
