My wife and I came to Hello Shabu after the lunch rush, at about 2pm. The place was almost empty…read more The tables were all clean and the cold bar was fully stocked. Lunch for two was $71. We were seated immediately and the server took our broth and 2 meat orders. My wife got the beef broth with chuck eye and brisket. I got the exact same thing. You have a variety of cold foods to choose from to add to your hot pot, from seafood to vegetables. Then you can make a dish of dipping sauce from the ingredients at the bar. They have a sign with suggestions for different sauces. There's also a got bar with corn cheese, KFC and bulgogi. These are mediocre. The shabu is good The slices meats are fresh and they come around often to check on you and refill your broth and meat. My wife loved it and we had a great meal.

The finger foods was Asian‑inspired, with flavors like black sesame, curry, and other creative twists that made each bite feel unique. Every piece was thoughtfully made, rich, and decadent without feeling repetitive, and the presentation was beautiful across the board. It definitely felt like a more elevated, modern take on afternoon tea. The tea itself, however, fell a bit short for me. I ordered a non‑caffeinated chrysanthemum tea, which unfortunately didn't have much depth or flavor. My friend's Darjeeling was better, but still not as rich or complex as I've had elsewhere. Given how strong the Asian inspiration is in the food, it would've been nice to see more thoughtful decaf tea options in that same direction, like decaf sencha, barley tea, or kuromamecha, to better match the concept. Price: The afternoon tea service is prix fixe at around $45 per person, which includes a curated set of savory bites, desserts, and a pot of tea. For the quality and creativity of the food, the price feels pretty reasonable compared to other OC tea services, though the tea itself didn't quite meet the same level as the food. Ambiance: The space is bright, warm, and inviting, with a nice amount of natural sunlight coming in that makes it feel cozy rather than stuffy. There are subtle Asian design elements woven into the décor, giving it a modern, slightly upscale feel without being overly formal. It's a great spot to catch up with friends and linger over tea. Service: Service was good, friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. Even during a busy service, staff remained kind and approachable, which added to the overall relaxed vibe. Parking: Parking can take a bit of effort. Since it's located on a busy street in Orange, you may need to circle around the roundabout or park a little farther away and walk over. Not impossible, but definitely something to plan for, especially on weekends.

I was impressed with the food overall, particularly the desserts! The food was also surprisingly filling. I also appreciated having the option to sample the teas before ordering. Samples were very convenient as they were self-serve and took the guesswork out of the ordering process! Overall, I was impressed by the afternoon tea service and would consider coming back. Though the price is higher than what I'm used to for afternoon tea given the amount of food offered, menu items were unique and enjoyable!

It's a little noisy, but the good kind -- lively energy, good music in the background, and still easy to hold a conversation at the table. Service was attentive and on point the whole night. Parking is valet only at $25, but you can get it discounted to $20 if you have the receptionist stamp your ticket. Overall, a great spot for celebrations, groups, and anyone who loves a good vibe with their meal.

Not only do they serve some of the most authentic Cantonese cuisine in the area, but the staff are consistently warm and friendly -- unlike the "typical" stereotype of Chinese restaurants where servers may ignore customers' requests. On top of that, their prices are extremely reasonable, especially with today's inflation. Highly recommend the filet mignon and the salt-and-pepper pork chop -- both are absolutely delicious!

The prices were reasonable too, especially for the portion sizes. My parents really enjoyed the food, so that made me happy as well. The gentleman helping our table was super friendly and moved very fast the whole time. Even though he was busy, he still checked on everyone and kept a great attitude. The place itself is not super fancy, but it feels comfortable and relaxed for a family meal. Good food, good portions, friendly service, and overall a very pleasant experience. We'll probably come back again.

Unexpectedly Salty Beef Vermicelli Bowl…read more I noticed this new restaurant on DoorDash and decided to try it since it was on promotion. I ordered the beef vermicelli bowl, and while everything else looked normal, the beef was extremely salty--almost like jerky. I was expecting tender, grilled BBQ-style beef with more balanced flavors. If you're sensitive to salt or prefer milder flavors, you might want to skip this dish. Not sure if it was a one-time issue or how it's meant to be prepared.

My second visit I had Garlic Noodles w/ Bulgogi. This dish was fine. A tad more filling than the rice bowl I had my previous visit but I definitely prefer the bowl and as far as protein choices go, I think the pork is much better. Employees here are super friendly and food comes out a lot faster than I thought it would. The inside gives me modern coffee shop vibes and is very clean and comfortable inside. There's also outdoor seating and although there's not much of a view outside of ample parking, I appreciate that I have a choice and prefer eating outside. I definitely see myself returning and look forward to trying the shrimp and chicken for my protein!

I ordered the combination pho and the meatballs had good flavor, but the noodles were way too overcooked. The noodles would break upon trying to pick them up. The broth was also okay but not my favorite. I felt that it tasted heavily of clove and star anise that it was almost sweet or heavy. I also ordered the chili oil wontons and they lacked a bit of flavor. I also wish the chili oil was a bit stronger in taste and spice. I usually use a spoon or two for pho but for this one, I used 4+ and it added no flavor.

Parking is plentiful, but the area can be a bit dark, so it is best to park closer to the entrance if you can.

We ordered the Army Stew with a side of steamed rice. The portion size was huge, definitely enough to share. It had a nice spicy kick, but it was still very tolerable and enjoyable. The flavors were rich and comforting. Overall, the food was delicious and the pricing felt reasonable for the portion size. This is a great spot if you are craving Korean comfort food late at night. We will definitely be coming back.
