AKI SHABU is a restaurant that offers excellent service and a great selection of meat for shabu shabu. The staff are attentive and friendly, providing a variety of sauces and appetizers, including sushi. The spicy creamy chicken broth is a favorite among customers, along with the popular miso broth. While the ambience is basic and the location is a bit sketchy, the parking is easy. Customers appreciate the option to bring their own alcohol. The restaurant provides good value for money with decent food and friendly service, making it a place worth returning to.
The reviews highlight a nice selection of broths and add-ons, with fresh and promptly served meat. The AYCE (All-You-Can-Eat) option is considered a great value for the quality of the produce and meat. Customers enjoy the individual hotpot experience, where they can choose what they want, along with a good selection of vegetables and sides. However, some customers noted that the selection of veggies is smaller than at other places. There were a few comments about the need for more staff training and cleanliness, particularly regarding the sauce station and utensils. Despite these issues, the overall experience at AKI SHABU remains positive, with it being a go-to hotpot place for many customers.
