    One of our go-to restaurants. They have a decent selection of hot pot items and cooked food, and we…read morealso really like the soft serve ice cream and sesame balls. Price wise, I think it's okay for what you get and it's ayce, especially compared to some other shabu shabu places that charge something outrageous. Service is always good and quick. They check on us often for more meat and clearing away used plates. Tho it can take awhile to get seated when it's super busy and can get real loud in the restaurant. We always have a nice time eating here and we will keep coming back.

    Came here to try out ayce shabu and this would've been 4 stars except for an interesting…read moreinteraction I'll explain later. It was $34.99 a person for weekend dinner pricing as of Aug 2026 and includes soup options such as: original house, beef bone, spicy beef, miso, sukiyaki, vegetarian(?). Meat option included: prime brisket, wagyu style short plate, prime chuck eye, lamb, pork, chicken, filet, ribeye, and some others i may be forgetting. Soft drinks like pepsi, brisk raspberry, dr pepper were included and self serve. Soft serve ice cream (very mid) and green tea/black tea unsweetened as well. Salad bar had a lot of options and seafood. Kale, bok choy, napa cabbage, spinach, crown daisy/tong ho, mushrooms, kabocha, onion, quail eggs, ramen noodles, japchae noodles, clams, mussels, shrimps, crawfish. Tbh there were so many options which I was really satisfied with. You can tell this place is korean owned. I liked that their meats were very thinly sliced and cooked very fast in the broth. My favorite was the chuck eye. I liked the filet but the slices were too small to enjoy. So about that interaction.. in the beginning when we were getting our soup order taken, we were asking if there is spicy miso available. The server said they have miso and spicy sauce that they can mix together to make a spicy miso broth. We said we wanted to try it first to see if we like it before committing, bc she said that if we wanted to change our broth it would be a $2 or$3 (?)surcharge. (idont remember how much she said but she also said if we wanted to mix different broths in our pots it would be fine but changing out the entire pot for a new pot is an upcharge which didnt make sense to me..) She said yes and was helpful but she mixed some spicy sauce (which was very very spicy like capsaicin sauce) and the cold miso broth together and let us try it. She said if we wanted we can also mix the miso and spicy beef together. She was honestly trying her best to be helpful but trying cold spicy broth like that was very offputting LOL. We ended up doing the spicy beef broth instead and just didnt deal with the miso anymore. I thought the spicy beef reminded me of doeniang korean soybean paste stew. I think this was a nice place to try but this korean style shabu isn't what I'm going for when I'm looking to eat shabu! I felt this was pretty similar to Shabuya, but I personally might prefer that over this spot :p For the variety, I think it's worth a try if you haven't tried it yet!

The server was really nice and offered alternatives when they didn't have something my gf wanted. I appreciated his service and hospitality. Seating was fast and food was great as well! Will be coming back. P.S the tofu appetizer is great too

    I had a hard time choosing where to go for dinner with my family. I wanted shabu shabu, but I…read moredidn't want AYCE. Nabemono came up, and I ended up choosing it over others. I read reviews which expressed frustration over the service, and I felt like that helped manage my expectations. I know it's a very tough time for restaurants, and I hope they are able to smooth things over soon. We were greeted when entered and we waited a bit to get seated. We were seated at a very large table, which felt funny since it was just three of us. It took some time to get menus. I walked up to grab them, but staff said they would bring it over. Once we ordered, food was quick to come out. Refill requests initially were promptly responded to, but as the first round of customers ended their meals, the service was backed up. It took some time to get refills and the check. Luckily we weren't in a hurry. The menu isn't entirely clear, so we had a couple ordering hiccups. Generally, easy problems to resolve. My family and I enjoyed the food. The vegetables, meat, and sauces tasted good. I really liked their goma dare (sesame sauce), which is my favorite part of shabu shabu. The brown rice portion was substantial, but the rice was reheated and dry. The ramen portion, while tasty was small, like ~1/3 of the rice portion. I personally, like to eat the carb throughout the meal, which means ordering more. The space is large with a lot of hard surfaces. I wouldn't say it is a quiet space--it is good for groups. We also sat closer to the door, so my elder family members were a bit cold while we waited. However, once the burners were going, it didn't feel as cold. The three of us ate for ~90 without tip, which can make sense for folks who don't want to pay $55pp for AYCE dinner. However, I think AYCE lunches at other restaurants during the week are a better value and can have smoother service. Just like many things in this world, my experience isn't black and white. There were things I liked and things that could be improved. I think it's worth a shot for others to try, as long as they can be open minded about the experience and patient.

    I hadn't been to this place in like 12 years prior to this dinner. I remember liking it a lot in…read morethe past. I do feel that this place needs to up their game. Other places have passed them by in some respects First there is no sauce bar here. Just four small containers of sauces you can use. Ironically none of those sauces are soy sauce. A darker possible peanut sauce, a sesame sauce, a pinkish possibly fermented tofu sauce and the standard chili oil. I wanted more as far as the sauce goes and I thought a sauce bar was pretty standard these days Second there is no AYCE bar with small snacks. Kind of interesting When ordering the meat, I guess they wanted to save a plate so the sliced meats just came in plastic containers. That loses some points with me on presentation Other than that everything is fine. They charge a little less for the broth than a lot of places do, so that's nice Got vegetables, mushrooms, tofu, noodles and a couple of meats. Overall it's a fine experience, mostly Ok to Good. But the lack of some things makes it more second tier for me and it would not be a go to hot pot place for me

    The Rejuvenation broth at Hot Pot Hot Pot is great! Lots of herby flavor, without being too much…read more They also give you a few small sauce cups, but no sauce bar. I found this place to be a bit pricey, particularly because almost all the veggies/noodles/non-meats were priced at $4.95. In my opinion, the end pricing should better reflect the ingredient pricing. Service was very bad. We were seated, ordered, and brought the food. We never were spoken to again and had to call over two different staff members to get the bill, then pay for it. They do have large tables for groups. Overall, this is the best hot pot restaurant I have tried so far, but I didn't love it.
