I enjoyed the bone broth more. The quality of the meat and ingredients was good, though, and everything tasted fresh. The decor was nice, and they have a sauce cart where you can make your own dipping sauce for the meat, which was a cool touch. Unfortunately, the service was REALLY lacking. I'm not sure if they were short-staffed, but no one came to refill our water the entire time. Our friend eventually had to go up and ask for a new pitcher. We also had to grab our own napkins and soup spoons, and even refill the broth ourselves by getting the kettle.

They have an amazing sauce bar, fridged items, skewers and sides. I personally liked the skewered meats better than the thinly sliced meats. Everything was clean, fresh and restocked well. Both of the broths we got were flavorful; spicy broth (less spicy) and pork bone broth. The customer service was also amazing. The guy kept checking in on us and keep wanting to ensure we try all the right things and had enough food. I will be back and will be bringing all of my friends and family!

MLBB Hot Pot is one of my favorite spots in Metro Atlanta. This is a terrific AYCE hot pot spot…read morewith an incredible selection of items. There even is a soda fountain if you're anything like me and live off Diet Coke. Service has always been on point during my family's visits to MLBB. Drinks get refilled quickly, additional broth is added almost before we ask, and dirty plates get whisked away very quickly. There's a lot of premium or "premium" type of ingredients like pig intestines that you don't really expect to find at that many hot pot spots. I love pig intestines, and I'm proud of it. Heh, but like really, don't knock it till you try it. I'll always recommend MLBB first for people looking for a hot pot spot in the Metro Atlanta area.

The meats were super fatty and tough and not super great quality. It's also not that sanitary too because people were picking up dishes and putting it back so they can get the "best one" There is a 90 min dining limit. We arrived at 5:58 and they asked us to checkout at 7:10 and told us we couldn't order anymore. Mind you we still had about 20 mins left! They clearly do not abide by their own policies. When asked, the server told us "we usually ask customers to leave earlier if it's busy". What? Great way to keep customers coming back lol, NOT. Also, their a/c was broken while we were there and it was so hot! No mentions or apologizing of this at all. Clearly customer service is not a priority... Will not revisit and I recommend you steer clear. There are better hot pot spots around.

The food here is exceptional. They offer four different hot pot base options, and my personal…read morefavorite is the dry spicy mix. I visit almost every week and still never grow tired of it. Each experience is just as enjoyable as the first, and the quality remains consistently impressive. The customer service is excellent, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. There is also a wide variety of ingredients available to customize your bowl. Since everything is priced by weight, I recommend selecting only as much as you are prepared to eat. Having tried every option on the menu, my top recommendation is the spicy hot pot beef broth. It is extremely flavorful, though customers should be mindful when choosing their spice level, as even the medium option can be quite spicy. My second favorite is the dry spicy mix, shown in my photo. After experimenting with the different broths, this became my preferred choice. However, it is best suited for those who enjoy a drier style, and the spice level tends to feel more intense compared to the soup-based options. My third choice is the tomato beef broth, which was my least favorite personally. Lastly, the spicy and sour beef broth was acceptable, though it did not particularly appeal to my taste.

This was plenty and there really was no need to pay the extra $10 per person to get unlimited meat, so I'd recommend this if you are planning on only eating meat.

For our broth bases, I chose the Mara while my boyfriend picked the Deungchon-- both were flavorful and great choices. While waiting for our hot pots and meat, I checked out the hot bar, which had side dishes like tteokbokki, japchae, fried rice, and more. I had some dishes from the bar as little appetizers, and they were tasty. For meats, we mostly ordered the non-fatty beef, brisket, and rib-eye. The meat quality was good. My boyfriend also ordered a round of clams and mussels. I personally wasn't too interested because they looked a bit unappealing, but he said they were okay. As a quick intermission from the shabu, we both enjoyed the shaved ice dessert. Unfortunately, near the end of our dining experience, while finishing our last plate of meat, my boyfriend noticed something crawling on the table. He lifted the water cup and found an inchworm. We think it may have come from one of the vegetables we grabbed earlier. We notified our server, who simply squished it and asked if we wanted a new cup. We declined and decided to leave. The inchworm incident definitely brought the experience down significantly, even though it happened near the end of our meal, and it honestly made me consider giving this place only two stars. However, I'm hoping it was just an unlucky mistake because I otherwise enjoyed 9292 Shabu and hope they improve their sanitation practices moving forward.
