About Bon Shabu

Bon Shabu is a modern and elegant hot pot restaurant located in LA's Koreatown, offering a wide selection of broths, meats, seafood, and vegetables. The menu includes a small but tasty hot food bar featuring options like fried rice, chicken wings, and noodles. Prices start at $24 for vegetarian and $34 for meat options. The restaurant maintains a clean and well-kept environment, highlighting a unique feature of split pots that allow for two flavors. While the service is generally standard with friendly servers eager to explain the process to first-timers, some diners have mentioned that it can take a while to get attention when paying the bill.

Standout dishes include the popular sukiyaki broth, japchae, tteokbokki, and sweet and sour pork. Guests have praised the extensive buffet bar filled with vegetables and side dishes, along with the wonderful selection of AYCE Shabu Shabu. Many diners especially enjoy the signature selection with Wagyu Chuck Tender, Brisket, Chuck Roll, and Short Plate, paired with the original and sukiyaki soup base. The atmosphere is noted as super modern and clean, with extremely fresh seafood, noodles, and vegetables. However, some customers have raised concerns about the flavor of certain broths, with one reporting a spicy broth that lacked taste. Overall, Bon Shabu remains a great spot for both meat-eaters and vegetarians, with a wide range of options to satisfy any craving.
