    We wanted to try some hotpot after we got out of church, and we came to Shibuya, which has always been great. We visited their La Mirada location at 11 am; it wasn't busy, and we were seated as soon as we came in. Their veggies, noodles, and seafood selections were good. We had a great time, and their service was good. Overall, if you're in the area and want to try an AYCE hotpot spot, go and give them a try, as they did not disappoint!

    This is a regular spot for my family. Food is always amazing. Service even better. Some of the freshest vegetables you'll find at a salad bar, meats are fantastic quality, and broths are the perfect compliment to the meal. My usual is the spicy broth, my wife's go to is the sukiyaki. I highly recommend the number 2 and number 5 meats. What's even better is recently they added some items they haven't had since before the pandemic like their chicken karaage and veggie eggrolls which were both great with the meal. They have plenty of tvs for you to watch a game while enjoying your dinner. It's a great restaurant for a large party and I've always seen them accommodate any size easily. It's great for a casual date spot with great food, but be careful it's not a first date because stuffing yourself with delicious food may not be the best look to some!

    I got the huoguo broth and it was really yummy! What I liked about this place is that the broth wasn't greasy at all, and you can refill however much you want. Additionally, the bar with all the veggies is great, but I'd especially recommend getting the fish balls. The meat was great quality, and is also unlimited. The service was great, our server was super attentive and they were taking away our empty plates super quick. Ambiance is good, its quiet and they were playing lots of worship music :))

    Food 4/5 Veggies and sides were fresh and delicious. Great selection of soups and meats. Beef belly was super tasty and soft, ordered around 28 rounds of meat for 7 people. Only suggestion is to have labels on the food selection. Service 4/5 We were seated pretty quickly, hosts and servers were very kind and accommodating. Every time we finished a tray or plate they would take it away almost immediately. Only complaint was it took a while to get water. Ambiance 5/5 Restaurant was very spacious and the buffet area was clean and well stocked and organized. Overall great dinner experience! would come back

    I visited this place again after a long time for a company dinner. There haven't been many changes, but that's not a bad thing. Even with a lot of customers, the restaurant was clean and the service was fairly quick. For the price, the quality of the meat was acceptable, and the included vegetables and seafood were satisfactory. Dining out isn't cheap these days, so this felt like a reasonable option without high expectations. On a chilly day, it was a decent and practical choice.

    Not the best place for a hot pot, but the best one for the price around that area. Got seated fast, but once seated, to get help was difficult. Most of the ingredients looked fresh, so that was nice . The flavors were not a stand out. Simple and something you can definitively at home. The utensils and plates, not so nice.

    Went to Shabuya recently with old friends. Great KBBQ spot! Buffet-style, so you go pick what you want and cook it. Plenty of banchan. And it HUGE inside! Ordinarily, in most Korean BBQ soots I have been to all the tables, buffet, and servers are smashed together and one trips over the other. Here, plenty of seating, room to spread out, and lots of groups. Would definitely return. Enjoy!

    AYCE

    Love this place! The food is always delicious and establishment is always clean. Love the AYCE and the service is always friendly and helpful. I can eat here every week tbh.

    Been coming to Shabuya in La Mirada for years for that AYCE shabu goodness. And it never fails to hit the spot. The meat quality and selection is solid, and the veggies and the sauces are all on point. Service is always good too. If you're a spice lover like me, make sure to ask for the spicy hot sauce to add to your broth as well as your goma sauce. It elevates everything! Another pro tip is to add green onions, minced radish, and minced garlic to your ponzu sauce. So bomb. Dinner is $32.99 a person which is very reasonable but if you wanna save a little more, come during lunch when it's $25.99 a person. It's worth every penny.

    As soon as you walk in, you notice how clean and well-maintained everything is -- even the vents -- which is so important for food quality. For large parties, everyone must be present before seating, even if just one person is missing, which happened to us. You get five soup base options to choose from, which is a big plus. The bar is beautifully set up with a great selection of veggies, noodles, fish balls, and shrimp. The meat was fresh, and I truly had no complaints. Overall, you'll definitely want to give this place a try!

    Went here to celebrate a friend's birthday for dinner! First off- I've never been to a hot pot where you have your own individual pots for your broth and food! What a great idea! The service was great- they were very attentive and personable. The place was great for crowds yet intimate enough for just two! Great selection of meats, seafood, veggies & sides with a section to make your dipping sauces ! Definitely a great place to go to when it's a bit chilly outside or anytime you feel you need a hot pot fix!

    Great place for shabu shabu, they had lots of selections for meats during dinner and a self help bar for all the rest of the ingredients you need. We ordered some soju and had a fun time eating AYCE. They also have a LA location that is solid.

    This is my second time at this location. Lunch is $25.99 and AYCE. When you arrive there's plenty of parking and hardly ever a wait. Everyone was kind and the service was really great. You never have to ask for more meat because they constantly come and ask if they can bring you more. This location isn't as turned up as fountain valley, it's more traditional and what I loved most is the sides bar. This location had crawfish, crab, sausage, clams, muscles and really any other item you could want in Shabu shabu. The sides bar was kept up and really clean. They give you a choice of about 6 different broths. We had a great experience and I definitely recommend!

    Is there solo dining charge?

    No there's not

    Is it all you can eat?

    Yes.

    Can 2 people share one pot?

    No, you get your own pot.

    What's the difference in the menu between lunch and regular? I see that lunch is $23.99 while regular is $29.99. Is the difference only on the time frame that it is offered, but still the same menu and food options?

    Nothing. Nothing is different. It's just a special pricing for lunch special Mon-Fri. Just marketing to get more people come for lunch special.

    Is the self serve salad bar open yet? If not when?

    When we went on Father's Day 2021, it was open. You have to wear a mask and use disposable gloves, which was provided by the restaurant.

    How much is for lunch and dinner? Also, do you take reservations for a party of 6 or more? Thank you.

    Yes they take parties more than 6

    They said they were having issues with their system two days ago when I went, if it's possible to join the waitlist definitely do it, or see if you can call ahead!

    What are their hours now?

    12pm to 11pm

    Has anyone been there since they re opened on 2/11/21? Are they still serving the same menu meats, pricing? Thanks for your help!

    Seems about the same I added a review with updated menu and prices

    Are they open for dine in?

    Outdoor Dining

    Is the ayce available or not yet?

    Yes, they're open for AYCE. I was just there Monday! The sauce/vegetable/other proteins bar is closed. You'll have to order what you want like you do with meat.

    I hope so !! I miss this place!!

    Is the meat ayce?

    Yes

    Can u sample the broth before u make a choice because I don't really know what to get?

    YES! They are very accommodating! I did that on my first trip to Shabuya

    Sure. I've dined solo at Shabuya. I've also seen pairs.

    First time dining at dPlace Steak & Pasta, and it was a great experience! From the moment we walked…read morein, the staff was warm, welcoming, and very courteous, making us feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious--everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared to perfection. We were a group of six old friends getting together, and the relaxed atmosphere made it the perfect place to catch up, laugh, and enjoy a wonderful meal. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend dPlace Steak & Pasta for great food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere!

    The pasta was okay, my brother ordered that and I am not a fan. The flavor was extremely light…read more I ordered the ribeye and a side of rice. The rice was only $2 which is rlly nice. the ribeye was ordered medium rare and come out perfectly. While the center of the ribeye was lacking a little flavor and the crust wasnt the best, the cap of the ribeye was cooked beautifully and actually tasted very good. I've had many steaks while dining and this was the first steak to be cooked so evenly, and have flavor without overseasoning. The sleeper item of this whole meal however was the mash potatoes. extremely creamy, smooth, and rich. we also ordered the calamari as an appetizer (pictured not included) and the sauce was good, the calamari itself was okay in terms of taste, but the presentation was unique. it was the first time ive ever had to cut up my own calamari. scissors were given with the dish, and instead of the typical rings, it was more like whole squids fried up.

    After last night I was ready to just write this place off and move on. Then I checked my bank…read morestatement today and saw that my tip had been increased by $10 after the fact. That is where this crosses from bad service into outright shady behavior. We came in as a group for dinner and the experience was mediocre at best. The restaurant was so dark we had to ask for additional lamps, which didn't even stay on. The service button at the table didn't work, so we repeatedly had to flag down the two servers. Water refills were forgotten. Basic attentiveness was missing. Nothing about the service justified anything beyond "okay." Our server eventually replenished our onions and broth, and perhaps that single "heroic" act went to her head- because after we paid and were already heading to our car, she ran out after our group. Our server, ASHLEY ran out to the parking lot to tell me my total was incorrect. I had accidentally written $170 instead of $178 due to a minor handwriting error. Understandable- so I corrected it immediately. That should have been the end of it. But it wasn't. She then had the audacity to question why her tip was "only 7%." I told her the service was just okay and we left. No argument, no scene- but it was already inappropriate and unprofessional to confront customers about their tip in the first place. What's completely unacceptable is what happened next. The finalized charge posted as $188- not the corrected $178. That means she added an extra $10 to my tip without my consent. Let's be clear: that is not a "mistake," that is altering a signed receipt and helping yourself to someone else's money. For context, my intended tip was $14.95- about 10% of the subtotal. More than fair for the level of service we received. Tips are optional, not owed and certainly not something a server gets to revise after the fact because they feel entitled to more. This was downright tacky, dishonest, and a complete breach of trust. I have already filed a dispute with my bank as I have a picture of what I signed before leaving the restaurant and I strongly recommend others check their receipts carefully and document it before leaving as well. But if you are smart, you would avoid an establishment that employs such an abhorrent server with no integrity or shame. Do better.
