My favorite spot of all time! I’ve been coming here for many years, even since they were at their old location.
The food has always been good. I always get the sukiyaki soup, it’s my go-to. The broth is rich, savory, and full of umami, with a slightly sweet flavor that goes so well with the meat. The meat is also really good quality.
The service is attentive, and the staff are friendly and polite.

Fine.
I liked my first experience at Gokudo Shabu Shabu.
We did the buy-one-get-one combo and ordered the fatty short plate and pork slice combo.
Compared to AYCE restaurants, their portions were just right, so I didn’t feel forced to eat a lot.
The service was friendly, and they served the raw food quickly. The quality wasn’t much different from other hot pot restaurants, but it’s comparable if you’re looking for good-quality meat.

Gokudo Shabu Shabu in Burnaby offers a satisfying hot pot experience with friendly and attentive service. Guests praise the staff for their kindness, quick responses, and careful attention to allergies, which enhances the overall dining experience. The restaurant's lunch special combo for two, priced at $39.99, includes two soups, two meats, two sides, two drinks, and dessert, making for a filling meal. The soups, such as the Malaysian laksa, are flavorful, though some found the preserved duck egg with cilantro soup to be lighter and less rich. The meats, especially the fatty short plate and lamb shoulder truffle mushroom hotpot, are well-liked. Diners appreciate the ground pork on rice with mushrooms and the new snakehead fish slices. However, some notice a reduction in the variety and amount of vegetables, with smaller portions of squash, taro, tomato, and lettuce compared to previous visits. Dessert options are limited to pistachio Melona bars, which some find artificial compared to the previously available Chapman’s ice cream. The restaurant’s set meals tend to rely on cheaper ingredients, and there is limited customization, with no sauce bar and only a basic sweet Chinese BBQ sauce provided. Beverages like tea and milk tea do not include free refills unless during happy hour. Overall, Gokudo Shabu Shabu is appreciated for its tasty food, great service, and good value, though some diners wish for richer broths and more flexible options. Despite some recent changes, it remains one of the favored hot pot spots in the area.
