What an amazing experience here from beginning to end! Loved the staff here. David and everyone else were amazing and really made it feel like home. There is a nice outdoor patio space to enjoy a breezy evening and cocktails, and there is plenty of seating inside for Shabu Shabu as well. They have happy hour specials and an impressive selection of cocktails! They also have a wide variety of sake and you can even choose a sake flight (highly recommended). We did get some yakitori to enjoy as an appetizer before getting to the main course. We did course A and course B because it was hard to choose between seafood or meat! Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Nothing felt rushed and the flavors were all great! This is a fun spot for a date night or a large family gathering. I could not recommend them enough!!! Give it a try, you won't regret it!! read more

A great quality shabu spot in an area of Torrance that doesn't have too many shabu options. Love that parking is a plentiful and free. You can't miss it, just look for the giant inflatable duck. They have a Happy Hour menu with $2 oysters, yakitori and apps 4-6:30pm on weekdays and 3-6:30pm on weekends. I enjoyed the yakitori skewers, spicy miso broth, tonkotsu broth and the Course A combo. read more

Started the evening with happy hour on the patio, which was the perfect way to ease into dinner. We ordered the Shrimp Skewers, Wagyu Ribeye Yakitori, Pork Belly Yakitori, spicy edamame, the Yuzu Shochu Highball, and the Matcha Green Dragon. Everything was flavorful and paired perfectly with the drinks. The pork belly was rich and tender, while the Wagyu yakitori had a great smoky char from the grill. After happy hour, we moved inside for the shabu shabu experience. We ordered Course A with the Tonkotsu soup base, which included ribeye, chuck roll, and beef belly. We also ordered Course B with the spicy miso soup base featuring jumbo shrimp, Japanese scallops, Atlantic salmon, and fish balls. The broths were , rich, and packed with flavor, especially the spicy miso with its nice kick. The quality of the meats and seafood really stood out, and everything tasted fresh. We also tried the Japanese A5 Miyazaki beef, which completely melted in our mouths and was easily one of the highlights of the night. To finish the experience, we sampled a few premium sake selections from their massive sake menu, and each one paired beautifully with the meal. The staff were super attentive and friendly throughout the entire experience. The ambiance and overall environment truly felt like being transported to Japan, making the whole dining experience even more memorable. read more

Honestly feel like I've been going through a bit of a divide in terms of AYCE shabu shabu. Either it's all you can eat at a reasonable price and you exchange quality for quantity/value, or you pay a lot extra for quality. King Plus Shabu Shabu appears to be a rare place that strikes the right balance, get the basic AYCE menu for regular occasions (and a balance tiled more towards affordability), get the premium menu that includes ribeye and brisket for when quality is on your mind (and stomach). They are plenty large enough inside, have ample parking, and the additional portions of noodles/veggies are quite generous as well. We love going here, although they're a bit out of the way for us-- always fun to watch us all roll in from directions all across the map because some of us love the place that much. Last tidbit: regrettably have not come here for the oyster special. read more

I've been coming here for close to a decade, through different owners and different versions of the place. There was a stretch after the main ownership changed where I came back once and thought, absolutely not. It had fallen off hard. Recently I gave it another shot and it feels restored. The food is solid again and the meat is the reason to come. Whoever was cutting the meat on my last visit deserves credit because that part felt dialed in. Good quality, good cuts and the kind of meal that reminded me why I used to come here in the first place. Service was friendly, but a little slow and not always attentive. We had to keep asking for small things like napkins instead of someone noticing the table needed them. Not a disaster, just something that could be tighter. The room is still odd. There's a bar nobody seems to sit at, an awkward waiting area and an entrance setup that makes no sense when the door everyone naturally wants to use is blocked. The layout feels like it was designed by committee and then abandoned halfway through. But the food works. The meat is good, the experience is back on track and I'll keep coming back. read more

Loved the vibe of this place! It feels modern, clean and upscale yet also relaxed, warm and inviting. Easy parking in their own lot Great shabu shabu, Japanese bbq, and other specials! - the broth choices are delicious and the meats and veggies are high quality! My favorite broth is the sukiyaki which is a little sweeter and the Tonkatsu which was creamy. The Sea kelp is great for those who need a lighter broth. We got Set A and B for the beef and seafood options. The combo comes with protein, a bowl of veggies, noodles or rice, a listed appetizer and a drink. All was so satisfying. We also tried some Wagyu and it melts in your mouth! We also loved their sake menu which had so many options to start learning about it. The grilled Saba mackerel fish was also AMAZING and my favorite bite. Service - amazing, they checked in often and brought our food quickly, out servers and management were also so kind and helpful! Tip: check out their special events, lunch and happy hour deals! Thanks to Wing, Brian and Paloma who were so wonderful and added to the great experience! read more

Full transparency we only selected this please because of the Resy credit thing but I was pretty impressed. The place was really clean and modern. I love the single serve pots which felt clean. The selection of veggies and noodles from the selection was great. Only one bad thing was we had to wait a while for the meat to be cut. Only because there was one guy cutting the meat and honestly I kinda felt bad. However once we got the meat there was a lot and the quality was great! I would definitely come again! Really enjoyed the food and vibe overall. Healthy, clean food with great vibes, what's not to love! read more

Came to King Plus Shabu Shabu and left completely satisfied. The AYCE menu has a great variety -- thin sliced beef, pork belly, seafood, veggies, noodles, and so many add ons. The meat quality really stood out, and the broth options had so much flavor. Service was quick and friendly, and they were great about explaining how everything works. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean with a lively but comfortable atmosphere. If you're craving hot pot in the South Bay area, this is a spot worth checking out. Great value for what you get. read more

My wife and I had a great time at this Yakitori and Sake cocktail event. The quality of food and service was outstanding. The vibe was great, the people who run this Restaurant really made an effort to ensure that everyone was having a good time. We found this advertised on social media and then realized they have so many good deals throughout the week from all-you-can-eat to Oyster weekends. We're definitely gonna come back and try this Sunday Oyster happy hour. I'd recommend anyone locally to try it. read more

Absolutely FANTASTIC! The restaurant doesn't show well in some of the pictures on Yelp to me, but do know, it's an excellent and wonderful setting indeed! The meat was super fresh, amazing, and delicious. The restaurant was spotless clean, the staff exceptionally friendly. I think the owner was actually slicing some of the meats, and he was incredibly accommodating, engaging and attentive. It seems more and more these days that places don't care whether you give them business or not, but he was genuine in greeting, and valuing, all the diners that came in. And it was a ton of really good food, and we were stuffed! Highly recommended!!! read more

King Plus Shabu Shabu - Shabu Shabu: ribeye steak, highly marbled wagyu-styled beef, pork. Ramen noodles, hot sake, two different cooking broths. Bounty! - Hot Pot Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

1. Shabu Shabu: Great quality meat -- they cut the meat with a machine right in front of you by the bar section. Great service as well. The staff is quick to respond and get what you need even though they are overwhelmed and super busy. Nice and clean environment. Highly recommend trying the sake flight if you're interested in tasting different kinds of sake. Two that stood out to me were the plum green tea sake and the yuzu one -- so good. They also serve ice cream at the end with the combo. I thought they would simply serve a scoop, but it actually comes with cream and syrup -- the whole deal. 2. Sake & Yakitori Night: They also host a Sake and Yakitori night as an event. It's a ticketed event, so check out their posters. About the event: you get 7 courses of yakitori and try different sake pairings with each. The flavors are awesome, and there is a sake expert explaining every bottle and the story behind it. You get to try each type for a few shots, or more if you'd like to drink. They are not stingy about it -- very welcoming hospitality. Have fun and get drunk! read more

Had a reservation, arrived to a restaurant with only 3 parties, we waited about 10 minutes before being seated. Party of 4 on small table that quickly be came crowded with all the bowls and plates. We started with calamari, spring rolls and cucumber salad, then 4 orders of All you can eat. Service was ok, food was ok, but we expected a lot more based on the reviews. Price was $40 per person for AYCE which is reasonable, but just not something that we would do again anytime soon as it was just ok. read more

Modern spot with great shabu-shabu! I went for a sake-tasting event and everything exceeded expectations! The food quality was excellent, and you can actually see them slicing the meat at the cutting station in the middle of the restaurant, which was really cool. I tried both the sukiyaki and the bone broth, both were rich and flavorful. The appetizers and sake pairings were spot on and really elevated the meal. The space is clean, the staff are super friendly, and there's plenty of parking since it's in a plaza. I'll definitely be back for that wagyu!!! It was so tender it melted in my mouth!! read more

We went back to one of our favorite shabu shabu spots over the weekend, and as always, it didn't disappoint! We love coming here because the place is super nice, clean, and comfortable. One of the things I appreciate most is that they allow our fur baby, Louie, to join us -- that's a big plus and one of the main reasons this spot is one of our favorites. It's never too crowded, which I love because I prefer a calm, relaxed dining atmosphere. The food is always consistently great -- the broth is flavorful, and the beef is always fresh and sliced perfectly. Another bonus is that there's a car wash nearby, so it's perfect to get your car cleaned while enjoying a delicious hot pot meal. Highly recommend this place for good food, good vibes, and pet-friendly dining! read more

Amazing as always! Under new management/owners, but also incredible quality service and hospitality

I love the set menu options here, King Plus Shabu Shabu has it listed as courses. My friend and I tried Course A and B for a mixture of beef and seafood. Each course came with broth, veggies, rice or noodles, a choice of one of the listed starters and soft drink. The sukiyaki and tonkatsu soup base was really good, really flavorful! The interior is well light, spacious and clean! The meat is cut fresh in the middle of the restaurant which is nice to see. My friend and I both enjoyed the meal! read more

King Plus Shabu Shabu - Course A Beef - Hot Pot Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Great food! Hot pot is good. Good value for the money. Owner is very nice. Meat is fresh.

This place is a gem. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth, not just from the simmering broth but from the owner and staff, who are incredibly attentive without hovering. The kind of service that makes you feel genuinely taken care of. We sat at the high table (highly recommend!), and it was such a cool experience watching them slice the wagyu right in front of us. And that beef. Melt. In. Your. Mouth. It paired so perfectly with the tonkotsu broth and thick, chewy udon noodles. it was next-level comforting and flavorful. The space itself is super clean with plenty of seating, which makes it perfect whether you're coming solo, with a date, or in a group. For a group, get the seafood sampler to share. The quality was so fresh, and it's the perfect appetizer to kick off the meal. Definitely a crowd-pleaser. And don't sleep on the sake menu! It's one of the most thoughtfully designed ones I've seen: complete with a dryness/sweetness legend that actually makes choosing fun and stress-free. Everything was top shelf and complemented the meal beautifully. Can't wait to come back. read more

A lovely shabu shabu place in a quiet shopping mall. I tried a set menu here which sometimes they call it omakase but it's basically set menu. I sat at the bar so it feels somewhat like course by course meal. The portion is definitely worth it for the price. Each set has seafood, meat and veggies, which can be combined together. A wonderful thing is that they have A5 wagyu, but I don't think it's the highest grade of A5 since I've seen finer marbling of A5 in a more expensive restaurant, but for the price and the texture, this is a good one. They will slice each piece before serving, making it very fresh cut. Sake flight is also worth a try! read more

This place was great. We were literally the only customers there which made it even better because we didn't have to wait for anything. Food came out very quickly and our pots heated up quickly. The food was yummy, definitely hit the spot for the cold weather. The veggies are all preset, so you don't really get to choose, but after we wanted more, we were able to choose which veggies we wanted so that was nice. It sucks though that we wasted some of the other veggies that we didn't want. Inside was nice, and it was clean. Bathrooms too were clean. Would come here again. read more

Food is amazing! Service is attentive as well. I definitely will be back! Thank you so much!

We came in on a Tuesday night with a reservation of 4 at 7:00 pm, they unfortunately weren't ready for us and took about 25 minutes to get our table. It wasn't anyone's fault as it looked like they only had 2 people working the tables. The restaurant is quite big and clean! As we finally got our table, we opted for the AYCE option as we were celebrating a birthday. It is definitely on the higher end for pricing that i've paid for AYCE shabu. Our orders and drinks were placed, however, we didn't start enjoying anything until about 8:15. The quality of meats was definitely on the higher side of quality, we enjoyed everything on the premium AYCE menu! I feel if they had additional staffing our visit would have been more pleasurable. We observed other tables they were attentive towards. It was even difficult getting a drink refill. Nonetheless, we still enjoyed the food, the spicy miso would have to be my favorite base. read more

The dining experience felt fun and interactive -- you cook your own items in a steaming individual pot, which adds that little bit of "event" to the meal. The sukiyaki broth stood out for me: rich depth, subtle sweetness, and the pork bone added a full-bodied flavor that lingered pleasantly. The beef slices melted in your mouth, and the fish balls added a playful texture. For our son, seeing the shrimp pop into the pot and then pulling out perfectly cooked pieces was pure joy. My husband appreciated the crisp vegetables and fresh seafood, which balanced out the richness of the broths. Service was friendly and attentive. The setting is modern yet cozy, making it perfect for families or groups. read more

Pretty good shabu shabu place in the plaza with South Play. Place is pretty big and seems very clean. Each person gets their own bowl and I love their sukiyaki broth. They offer AYCE M-R and lunch times on weekend. Their set menu includes a lot - appetizer, veggies, noodles, rice and a fountain drink. The meat quality is usually very good and I love how their fish balls have fish eggs in them. I took a star off because one of the scallops they gave me today was all mangled up. Besides that, a very solid spot. read more

I'm on a hunt for good hotpot so I decided to try King Plus. The staff was very friendly and helpful during the entire experience from sitting us down to explaining the menu and thereafter. We went with course A on the menu. The 3 cuts of meat and veggie bowl with appetizers and a drink for $48/person. Overall, the food was good. There were just certain things here and there that made this place feel average. I decided to go with the spicy miso as the broth and we received 2 dipping sauces, garlic, radish, and green onions for toppings/dipping. The broth was ok. It could have used more miso to make a bold flavor and it wasn't that spicy. Maybe mild spicy for my liking. The dipping sauces really helped with overall flavor. I would have liked a bolder flavor of this broth. I felt that the amount of meat in the course was fine but I don't think it was enough veggies. I wonder if making it unlimited veggie bowls could justify the price. Which was another part that for the amount of food, serving size of various dishes, and overall quality of the meats and broth. It felt that it didn't match what you would get normally. Compared to the rest of the menu, and what you get from the course it's a great choice but due to the other factors I mentioned above it didn't make sense. I will say the appetizers were good and the staff was lovely. I don't see myself coming back and making the drive. It's a cute place for a date night though it could use some changes, in my opinion. Also, maybe a new menu look could freshen up the place and feel! That's just my point of view. read more

King Plus Shabu Shabu is hands-down one of the best Shabu Shabu spots in the South Bay! We came on a Sunday and took full advantage of the $1.50 fresh oyster special--those were plump, briny, and perfect for dipping in the broth. The shabu setup is generous with premium sliced meats (the ribeye and beef belly were melt-in-your-mouth tender), loads of vibrant veggies, udon noodles, and my favorite part: the perfectly charred BBQ skewers! They had that smoky, savory yakitori vibe with juicy, well-seasoned bites that complemented the shabu shabu experience amazingly. We tried the spicy miso and sukiyaki broths--both packed with flavor without being overpowering. Portions are huge, service was super attentive (they checked in constantly and helped with timing the cooks), and the place is spotless with a sleek, modern feel. Great value for the quality--definitely coming back for more! Highly recommend for groups or date nights. read more

Had a very bad experience a few days ago. Came in for a reservation for 2 people around 1pm on 2/14. There was one party of four in the middle of their meal but the restaurant was otherwise empty (and it's a pretty big restaurant). Waiter sat us at the bar and declined to sit us at a table because there were 'around 50 reservations between 2-5pm'. I think there were probably a couple of ways this could have been handled better than a blind adherence to policy without regard for context, but OK. When seated we asked about the AYCE menu. The waiter first said they hadn't started AYCE yet and that would start next week. I double checked since I remembered seeing it all over their website and Yelp page, and I showed him the website showing AYCE on 2/14 from 12-2pm. His answer then changed to 'the owner told me last night that we can't do AYCE because we have so many Valentine's Day reservations'. I said can you ask because it's on the website (and the reservations he was referencing were coming after the AYCE timing window anyway), and he said he wasn't sure who to ask 'because there are like 3 owners and I'm not sure which one forgot to update the website'. We said OK and left. To be clear this special is currently advertised on this Yelp page and has been offered by the restaurant for a long time. The waiter acted like it was a new thing that hadn't started yet and changed his response after we caught him in the lie. The seating situation was annoying but ultimately not a big deal. It was just compounded by the blatant misrepresentation and lying from the waiter. It was sort of unreal to us to be sitting in an empty restaurant and treated like everyone was too busy to figure out a solution to the problem. I took a screenshot of the website after we walked out. Curious for the department of consumer protection's view on this. read more
