    Fresh veggies
    Alan B.

    This place was interesting. I enjoyed the personal hot pots. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had 5 at our 8 person table and it was tight. I can't imagine 8 people[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].. we had an issue with my pot at the beginning, one coworker thought it was the burners, but then another saw it was because the pot wasn't making full contact with the burner, and as a safety feature, the burner doesn't get very hot because of it. They swapped my pot and it worked perfectly. I wish they would train their staff about this, so they know moving forward. Once it was all working, then it became an enjoy full experience! The veggie bar was very fresh!! They have some meats at the bar as well. We practically filled up on the bar side. Between 5 of us we ordered 8 plates of meats and we were good. So it's probably best to skip the bar with all the extras for a while. They let me mix up to 2 broths together, I mixed curry and mushroom. Perfect combination! I ordered spicy tuna and spicy salmon, one was packed very nicely, the other was quite sad looking. The desert is included in the all you can eat price. The only thing not included was my alcoholic beverage. All-in-all, I'd definitely come back, very tasty flavors and everything!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]PK Shabu & Grill is a hot pot place you can go to for casual dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have a brilliant concept of all you can eat from choosing your broth to picking your meat and grabbing the veggies and sides yourselves. They have a wide variety of sides and veggies to choose from. They also have appetizer menu and sushi selection where you can order any items as a part of all you can eat. Personally, I won't try their sushi but that's just a personal preference. The appetizers were okay. The service is okay, the taste is okay, and they also include one dessert per person. I loved the idea but overall experience as a whole was just okay. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have clean restrooms.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have friendly servers and chefs behind the stir fry section seem knowledgeable about what they are doing. Like I said overall experience was okay. There was nothing wrong just won't be a next time. It was that kind of restaurant for me, one time experience was one time too many. PS It didn't occur to me to want to take any pictures to share with anyone or to keep it for myself. I am deleting the couple pictures that I took after this review.

    Was recommended and in was eager to try it out. It is on Dobson and Broadway. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upon entry, there is plenty of tables and quite spread out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Quickly seated and greeted. This place is all included. One price and literally can eat anything. Started with water and the set out to get the vegetables. So many to choose from! The variety was amazing. When I got back to my table, the broth was waiting, piping hot! Start adding the "longer cooking" veggies and watch the magic. We did get a few different meats, they were great but I am more impressed with the amount of veggies. If you're looking for a date night or something new to try, come over to this place. You'll love it!

    I really enjoy how you get your own hot pot here so you don't have to worry about sharing. I was impressed by how fresh all the ingredients were and their presentation. The soup base was flavorful, had good depth and complimented the additions. The meats were of solid quality and we made sure to load up on them. We also tried their sushi which were also pretty solid. We had some issues with one of the cooking plates. Turns out, if the bottom of your pot is burnt, it won't work and needs to be replaced. That made one of our friends have to wait a really long time before he could eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a poorly loud inside but spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They could probably use another server or two as it was hard to order more meats, drinks, etc. I still do recommend it especially with a large group.

    We have made PK Shabu a holiday tradition and it provides for a fun way for our family to dine together. We visited in a Tuesday night and although moderately busy we were seated right away. Broth came out quickly and the food bar was well stocked and bountiful. We couldn't believe how many seafood options there were. Our initial meat order was takes quickly and we ordered a sushi roll. Initial service was quick but lacked a little with follow-up. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food was great and the ambiance was good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Prices are not cheap but you get so much. Would love to have a take home option for the leftovers.

    Everything went wonderfully!! Food was bomb. Service was great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was neat and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'll be back soon

    This was an excellent restaurant! I've never been for hot pot in the United States before and this met my expectations. I loved how you could choose your broth and then go up to the buffet to get all of your toppings. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was so fun to go as a group and see what everyone decides to add.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will 100% come back here to try more of the broths and will bring friends!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love coming to this place over and over it's so fun and so many good options and broths and fresh foods.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Went here for a double date and it was great for picky eaters! Our server was very patient with us and explained how their restaurant works. We ordered appetizers (first mistake lol) and then order our broths. They gave us suggestions on what their best meats were so we got chicken, pork belly, and brisket. Then we went up to the bar and selected our veggies, seafood, sauces, and every fruits. We did get more than what we could handle as it was our first time. The cook time for the veggies did take a minute since some of them were cut thicker but the meats were thinly sliced and were amazing. Would love to come back and be more wise in my selection of what to get but their food and ingredients were very good!

    Everything was so good and service was amazing. The seafood and vegetable and condiments bar were fully stocked! I was so full I didn't get a chance to try the stir fry station. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have long tables of 8 and each person gets their own individual pot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The sushi wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad either. The egg tasted like the burnt coating of the stone bowl though. The corn cheese was sweet and delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We really enjoyed them having Hunter X Hunter on in the background![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's not on the menu but they also serve dessert. 1 dessert item per person and it's either a slice of cheesecake or chocolate cake or ice cream bar. The best part is how they will cut and shave the meat fresh to order instead of having it pre sliced and sitting out for awhile. I'm definitely coming back

    Honestly a really fun night. This place is a steal! For around $40 you get unlimited appetizers, shabu shabu, broth, and access to the buffet of fresh veggies, noodles and starches, seafood, and sauces. There is even included dessert and fruit to finish. We had a lot of fun trying different things in the broth. I mixed the spicy and Tom yum broth which was lovely, we also tried a mix of spicy and curry. The best was the kimchi dumplings, the bok choy, and (I know, I'm as surprised as you are) the imitation crab meat. The biggest downside was the servers forgot a few things were ordered and then didn't come back for a long time. There was plenty to eat and we didn't pay extra for the items so it wasn't a huge deal but it did affect the meal. Overall would certainly recommend and return again. Be aware, they do have a fee if you waste too much food. They're very up front about it though so I feel that if you are that person, it's your own fault.

    Overall, a solid AYCE hotpot spot in an area with not too much competition. For adults, the pricing is $35.99 per person and it includes hotpot, sushi, appetizers, stir fry, and yakitori. The space is large and clean, and the employees are constantly checking on and refilling the hotpot bar. Stopped in on a Saturday with a friend for dinner. While I was mainly there for the hotpot, I decided to give the pork belly and shrimp yakitori a try. The pork belly was tough but the flavor was good, and the shrimp was ok but definitely needed some flavor. I do enjoy the personal-sized hotpots and the broths are decent as well. I think it would be nice if they offered a "hotpot only" price for those that don't want the extras, but with only one or two other spots like this in the valley it's a solid option.

    I came here years ago when I first opened in the quality of the food, was not the best, some of the meat had discoloration on the edging, which is due from oxidation from being exposed to air too long, so I'm assuming they have these meat sitting somewhere exposed open it made me stop wanting to put orders in for meat and it seems like after a few years, passing by the quality has even gotten worse most of the things displayed in regards to vegetables looked not the freshest as well some of the ingredients aren't really properly cut up so they were all very uneven weird sizes as well as the only seafood I tried, which was muscles. Every piece I had gotten had big pieces of either sand or rock or something, but it hurt my teeth at one point when I bit down into one they obviously don't clean their seafood, didn't smell fresh anyway it was so fishy in taste I ordered corn cheese and that was prob the worst tasting one I've had in my life why did the cheese in it taste rancid?? and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the tables are so small you really don't have room to put stuff anywhere around you as they have there items lined up like a deli type of bar[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], which is a bad idea because [[HIGHLIGHT]]the sauce bar area some of the things you can't really reach because of the windows that they have overhead of the items displayed, so you have to try to reach your arm all the way back while your face is smashing onto this piece of glass causing sauces to spill everywhere[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and [[HIGHLIGHT]]they have napkins just right in front because they're used to it, which was pretty gross to see spilled sauce all over that and stuff they could've just easily re-organize this to make that not be a case[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Not a terrible thing, I didn't to pull out my flashlight or anything, but still. I got the Pork Porterhouse, the seasonal ceviche, and the Me llama Rosa drink. Starting with the drink, I personally did not like it. It was VERY strong, and I was actually feeling it a bit as I was sipping it before dinner came out. I got it because it was on the sweet alcohol list, but I wouldn't really classify this as sweet. The ceviche and the pork porterhouse were SO good. The chips the ceviche came with were so light, and the ceviche itself was just so drool-worthy. The pork porterhouse was bigger than I expected, and I had a lot to take home after dinner. The pork was very tender, and I would 100% order the ceviche and porterhouse again. I also got to try the cut of the day, the sticky pork belly, the pescado, and the burger. I thought everything tasted really yummy, but I WISH I had rice for the sticky pork belly and the pescado. Those would HIT with rice lol. I think next time, I'd maybe order the sticky pork belly.

    DELICIOUS! Flavorful!…read more Walked in, were greeted right away. The restaurant wasn't super crowded at 11:45am on a Wednesday. We were able to get a table easy enough. Placed our orders. Our drinks were brought out to us promptly. I ordered the ceviche de camarón o pescado. I couldn't decide between shrimp or fish. So the server said he'll do half and half for my order. Problem solved! My friend got the Botana de camarón cosida. Both dishes were refreshing. Mine had a great citrus punch to it. Definitely lots of lime! You'd think it would be all that filling. Just some fish and some shrimp. But there was so much on the plate, I was DEFINITELY full! Even left a little on the plate. The place was nicely decorated. Very kitschy Mexico street stand vibes. No overly loud music or tv blaring. Could talk easily over lunch without yelling at each other.

    It's been a while where I ate at a place and left there going, man that was some amazing food and I…read morecan't wait to come back and try the other dishes. This place is some what of an off location and you would have to know it's here. Little small restaurant with friendly staff and nice decor. I wanted to try everything but looking at the price I had to make one choice. Waitress was very helpful with making my decision. I decided to try the Botana Especial, which has shrimp aquachile Rojo, verde, and ceviche. Price was little out of what I like to spend for a lunch but I said what the heck, I'll roll that dice. Waitress came back with the fish and they looked yummy and decorative. She recommended to put some mayo on the tostada and she selected two salsas she likes the best. Well I never put mayo on anything but for some reason I said hell with it, I'll give it a try. First took a spoon full of the aquachile Rojo and just tasted the juice.. Oh my word, I don't know what kind of magic they pulled here but I never tasted such fresh, tasty, refreshing aquachile in my life. I was instantly in love.. So i put on some mayo, shrimp, cucumber, and slice of fresh avacado. Drip some red sauce and in my mouth it went and wow, for this time only I would have to say I like mayo... Combination of everything went so well together. Rojo was my favorite out of the three but shrimp ceviche was also amazing. Verde also had nice flavor and very tasty. Portion were pretty good and I was pretty full by the time I finished the dish. I was tempted to pick up the plate and drink the left over, but my luck I spill it all over my shirt. I really really enjoyed this place, I felt like I was sitting in the beach somewhere in Mexico and someone just made my dish and brought it to me. I can't get over how yummy this place was, I can't wait to try the tower which has some octopus and scallops.... Yummy. Girl told me owner started off with food truck and now open this place and it's been here two years.. Hope it stays busy and open for long long time.
