    Hot plate
    Ianne B.

    Quick update on our second visit. We are back in Park City after three years and returning to Kuchu Shabu was at the top of our list. This time we knew it would be busy on the weekend during ski season, so we checked in about an hour before we anticipated having dinner. At that point, it was about a 45 minute wait. We were texted quicker than expected. About 30 minutes later, so we had to rush right back since we are running a quick errand during the wait. Our server was not super personable, but he was nice and attentive enough and got the job done. And the other staff that assisted were very pleasant. We started with a cauliflower kaarage which came with three different sauces, my favorite being the sweet and spicy one in the middle. This app came out piping hot and was a nice veggie alternative to chicken kaarage. I would suggest maybe a smaller portion of the sauces, as a lot of ours went to waste. For our mains, we ordered 3 shabus - Hubby got an 8oz American Wagyu, daughter 1 ordered a 6oz ribeye, and daughter 2 shared a 10 ounce American wagyu with me, and we ordered an extra bowl of noodles. We all selected the tonkatsu broth. This time, the food came out a lot faster, shortly after we were done with our appetizer. We were excited to get cooking! My opinion is the same as before. This is a solid place with delicious food. The broth was on the salty side, but I think it needs to be as you are essentially seasoning your food when you cook it in the broth. It was nice to have sauce options for dipping, but I didn't use any of them personally. The American Wagyu was excellent , so tender, and again the tonkatsu broth flavorful. I didn't want to overpower the wagyu's already amazing flavor with a sauce. The price is a bit on the higher side for Shabu, but it is located at a resort which is to be expected. And I love that they offer premium meats, of course at a premium, because this definitely elevates the Shabu experience. Our bellies were happy and full after our meal, and we would definitely return if in the area again!

    We really enjoyed our lunch here after a disappointing day on the slopes - in fact, it was the highlight of our day! We started with a mule which was great. The had the spicy edamame and the gyoza - both were great. The edamame wasn't spicy at all but had a delicious sauce on them. My husband and I both had ramen and it was also to die for. Only complaint was they forgot my egg, but the quickly brought me one when I asked. Service was great. The spot was so intriguing and the food was excellent!

    Looked for nearby places to eat and this place popped up. There were 4 of us so we ordered 3 ten oz portions of meat and got 3 broths. There was more than enough food for us. We ordered the rib eye, American wagyu and pork. Got the traditional and tonkatsu broth. The traditional broth didn't have much flavor so we scooped some tonkatsu broth in it which made it taste much better. Also added chili oil to it. As you cooked the meats and veggies in it both broths became more flavorful. It's super warm in the restaurant with most people ordering their own broth. Prices are high with all their bowls, pho and ramen being almost $30 each and the shabu potentially costing a lot more pp if you order expensive meats. Service was decent and we walked away full.

    Chicken karaage
    Mikki M.

    My sister and I went around 7:30 on a Thursday night and were the only ones in the restaurant. The restaurant is bright and clean, and has plenty of seating. The artwork is unique and the carvings in the tables are beautiful. We ordered the chicken karaage for an appetizer. I liked that it was lightly breaded and came with different dipping sauces. My sister ordered the tonkotsu ramen and I ordered the steak and kimchi ramen. She said the chashu pork was very tender and loved the broth. For the steak and kimchi ramen, the steak is thinly sliced, the broth wasn't oily and has good spice to it. Towards the end the broth got really salty due to the kimchi. The ajitama egg was cooked perfectly! The price is more than other places but it's worth the big portions you get. Service was good and you pay with a QR code. There's some street parking but it fills up quick. There's also a parking garage southeast of the restaurant. I'm not sure if they validate parking though. I'd like to come back and try their shabu.

    Hot pot with tofu
    Georgia

    This place was such a fun spot to go to and is totally not a normal restaurant because it's an experience. I went with a few friends and my kids where we all got at one table(8 people). My friends and I all ordered the hot pot where it comes with the broth and then you cook your veggies and choice of meat with a side of rice and you cook it on a heat table where you eat. The one downside is that your food is boiling in front of you so it will splash. So be careful! But the food was so fun to make and I can now officially say I cooked my food at a restaurant. My son ordered the ramen which was COMPLETELY flavorless and instant chicken ramen at home is better. Overall this place was pretty good and I'd come back next time I visit!

    Gyoza and old fashion
    Ben P.

    I really enjoyed meeting the owner and hearing him share parts of his story. His recipes and menu selections were top notch. I had the tofu Pho, Tai Hoi ramen, veggie gyoza, old fashioned and the Tokyo sunset (cocktail). There was always a steady flow of traffic, but nothing too crazy. Mostly quiet, relaxing and easy to enjoy your meal.

    One of the more authentic shabu places I have been to in Utah. I love that they have 3 different broth options and a great veggie plate. Probably my only issue with this place as they charge four dollars for an extra bowl of rice, which seems a little expensive. And I wish they gave a little bit bigger sauce, bowls to dip your meat and veggies in after you cook them. But the atmosphere is really awesome. I like that you get your own individual hot pot burner and the staff is very attentive. This is a place I always go when I go to Canyon's.

    Local Elk

    Hats off the the team here at Kuchu Shabu- especially the husband and wife duo keeping this place running like a well oiled machine. We had a lovely meal here while staying nearby. We loved getting to try local elk in the shabu as well. They were hand slicing the meat right in front of us and it did not disappoint in a savory pork broth. This was the perfect meal after a long day traveling and snowboarding. This place gets busy during peak times so go early before they close. We loved the atmosphere and it was very cozy just the two of us at the bar!

    Super cool little spot right next to Hilton resort we were staying at. Loved the atmosphere and concept of the tables for the specialty, Hot pots. Hostess was a stick in the mud but our waitress was friendly. Food was DELICIOUS! They don't skimp on the protein in the Ramen and overall quick service.

    I'm not sure why this is rated so high. The service was nice but the shabu is definitely not flavorful. I had the traditional and it tastes like unflavored sink water and they put broccoli in it and they served it with udon noodles. If you're looking for Asian shabu this is not the place.

    Shabu Shabu the Japanese version of Hot Pot, is very tasty and as yummy as its counterpart. We will start with what I enjoyed. I enjoyed the service, Travis was fantastic. Not only did he bring the vibes he brought the experience! Fun to chat and interact with. The next thing I enjoyed was the ambiance, the background music was good level and didn't interrupt conversation. Even being close to others you were still able to have your own conversation and hear yours. The next thing was the food! Very good and tasty but that leads me to the only thing I didn't like. The broth was very salty but it was good. It was better after mixing the chili oil to make it "spicier" (I'm a fiend for spice) I would definitely come here again. Maybe next time in Park City Utah

    Tonkotsu Ramen
    Maleka H.

    For my love of Pho, everything noodles and soup I came across the absolute best Pho I ever tasted. The broth is rich and flavorful, perfect temperature, perfect size, the beef cut & taste is top notch. The menu is not overwhelming just enough to give you options. The restaurant has hot plates to cook your own bowls so it's great for a family, group setting. Clean open space with a funky ski decor. The staff is absolutely amazing and accommodating, on night we came just as they were closing and they took us in. The husband and wife owners were amazing, friendly conversations, accommodating and they were right there with the staff making sure customers were doing great. Honestly the best food option in the village warm PHO is definitely a healing agent after a long day on the slops or just for the weather. Note I had Pho and ramen here 4 times in a week so this must tell you how good the experience.

    Fabulous experience here for dinner this past Thursday night while we were in town. We grabbed…read morereservations a week out (I tried to book Friday but they were already full, so reservations are recommended!). We were sat at a table upstairs, intimate and cool vibes. Our waiter Billy was excellent - attentive, and gave us good guidance (and reassurance) on the menu and what we ordered! I started with the cucumber martini, very refreshing. For food, we ordered the crispy tuna tartare, wagyu bruschetta, chiller special roll, and the 2 hand rolls off the specials menu. I want to go back in time and eat it all again. Everything was excellent, but the chiller roll and wagyu bruschetta were at the top of the list. The wagyu bruschetta was the perfect blend of locally made baguette, tender wagyu beef, and drizzled pork butter. The chiller roll (Billy's favorite) was so unique and in the best way. The combination of everything worked together perfectly - including a sliver of lemon on top! Will be a must-go to spot when we are back in town.

The restaurant is located on Main Street and has plenty of space inside since it's two stories. Trish was an excellent host. She was great to talk to and made the whole visit very special for my cousin. We really appreciate her going above and beyond for our group. The sushi here is great. Very fresh and creative options. A member of our group has a sesame allergy and the staff took great care to ensure she had something good (and safe) to eat. I'll definitely be back the next time we visit Park City. Overall I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great sushi and service in PC!

We ended up at Hearth and Hill because of the Yelp reviews, and I'm glad we did. The lunch menu was pretty small, and we almost left. Our server told us what he liked and why, so we trusted him and ordered what he recommended, I'm really glad we did. Everything was great, the fries were so good and we loved biscuits! (Forgot to take a pic of those) only bummer was the house ketchup, it was not my favorite. Was glad they had regular on hand.

When we requested a table, the host informed us there was an active reservation for our table in 1.5 hour and we could dine as long as we could be gone by that time. That took me by surprise as the restaurant was very much empty. We were too invested now to find a different restaurant, but it felt degrading. So, I agreed to vacate our dining table on time, if they could ensure our food would be served in 30 min. So, we sit and order hastily. So, here a hastily written review to match our dining experience. The cheddar biscuits were tasty. The smash burger is just another burger with a side of fries. It had some fun Parmesan crisp for extra flavor and texture. The birria tacos were very unexciting in flavor. The burrata salad was interesting, and sparked my culinary curiosity. I didn't want to push my luck with dessert. To not overstay our welcome, we paid and skedaddled. Although I felt rushed and judged, the server was polite and kind. In conclusion, the food ranged from interesting to disappointing, but service was great. Maybe next time I'll make a reservation for a table that comes without a hot timer... if there is a next time. Also, when we left, only about 30% of the tables looked occupied. The forced rush was really unnecessary.

In terms of attire, it's a mixed bag as with other places here.. we were pretty casual but some were dressed up a bit more. Our server was wonderful, and the food and drink was phenomenal. This was, hands down, the best meal we had in Park City. We started with cocktails. The gin cocktail I had was the perfect combination of floral and citrus and left me wanting more. My husband enjoyed his as well. The wine menu here is insanely overpriced, so next time I'd ask the corkage fee to consider bringing our own bottle. They brought out a bread that was cooked with a Japanese seasoning on it and a side of butter, and it was delicious. The bison was the best thing we ate; incredibly tender and cooked to perfection, if we lived here we would be back often for this. The elk was very good as well, with fresh herbs that helped bring out the flavor. Can't go wrong with either of these dishes but the bison was the star to us. My daughter ordered the kids pasta with butter and parm, and my son ordered the kids chicken fingers which came with potato wedges. Both were a good portion for children. For the sides, we ordered the Japanese sweet potatoes and the fried rice. The sweet potatoes were something different and were tasty but not our favorite or something we would order again. The fried rice with egg was delicious; it was full of sliced garlic and amazingly seasoned, we could not help but finish it all. At the time of the check, our server offered cotton candy for the kids. It was very flavorful and soft. It was a nice finishing touch. We'll definitely be booking this restaurant for our next trip to Park City.

The spicy tuna on top was really flavorful and well balanced, bringing just the right amount of heat without overpowering the dish. The miso soup was also a pleasant surprise -- the portion size was generous and perfect for sharing. It was warm, comforting, and a great start to the meal. We also ordered the karaage. Unfortunately, this was the weakest dish for me. The chicken itself didn't have much flavor, and if it weren't for the dipping sauce it would have been quite bland. It was also made with dark meat, which I'm personally not a big fan of. The hamachi nigiri was fantastic. The fish tasted incredibly fresh and clean, and the simplicity of the dish really let the quality of the hamachi shine. Another standout was the Wasatch roll -- a true dynamite roll with lots of flavor and fresh hamachi. Every bite had great texture and balance. To end the meal, everyone was given a small bowl of cotton candy, which was a fun and unexpected touch. I hadn't had cotton candy in years, and it was a playful way to finish the night. Overall, there were some great highlights, especially the sushi and fresh fish, and the experience had a lively and enjoyable atmosphere.
