Service: the server was extremely rude, waited 30 minutes at table. Approached her to that we are ready to order but i was ignored. She so mean saying you can’t order more than 5 where i only got 2 items, she misheard the orders yet here tone of voice is unbelievable. She not recommended for anything since it was my first time she kept referring me to the menu. Also she did not ask us once if we needed anything further until the time came for us to leave. And no it was not busy. We are like 3 or 4 groups during that time.

Food: i love the icecream🥰

My biggest complaints are the service, space, and the food. Hopefully you will have a better experience.

*Two stars because ice cream was good.

Service: the older server was extremely rude and rushed me in picking a broth and other items. When I asked her what she recommended for anything since it was my first time she kept referring me to the menu. Also she did not ask us once if we needed anything further until the time came for us to leave. And no it was not busy. On top of that, she brought us meat that we did not even order.

Space: a fairly small space with minimal room to get your sides near the selection area.

Food: in my opinion for $50 a person for the premium I would rather go to Korean BBQ. The culture for shabu-shabu, may include you getting your own sides yourself, however, for this much at other similar chains, I would prefer to have these sides and other needed items ordered and not so much self service. Meat quality did not taste that great either.

The service was great. There is a really nice selection of broths and add ons to choose from. The meat is really fresh and it was brought to us right away. When I went to the bar, I was really surprised by how neat and extensive the selection was. The AYCE is really a great value for the quality of produce and meat you get.

Better then before but still so so. Out of meat only #2 is decent. Rest is either too fat or too chewy. Sides are ok. Recipe for dipping sauce is very good
Tom yum soup is good too

Loved this spot . Really good selection.

Eat at your own risk. So much cross-contamination going on here surprised they’re not shut down. The buffet looked sketchy and I knew I was taking a risk but I ate anyway and I’m now paying for it with food poisoning. I saw a guy still raw shrimp into some of the other items in the self serve buffet l

Love this place... It's my go to hot spot place in the Valley. They have 2 options now for the AYCE dinner. However, I feel like new staff members need more training when it comes to service.

Food is ok but way overpriced!!!
12/11 In response to management's comment:
Unfortunately, i spent over 45 dollars a person. This did not include beverage. Honesty, i feel the value for the cost was not worth while.
Thank you for your response.

I love this Hot Pot place! I love that I don't have to travel far for good hot pot!

We've been coming here with my wife for a very long time. The food is amazing and worth the price. The service is fast and always extremely friendly. Make sure to try the awesome sauce.
There is no other place like this! We even tried to find a shabu-shabu restaurant that would beat this one when we were in Japan, but we haven't found one yet.

The food is great but I loved the service and atmosphere more. Everyone there was really welcoming and friendly. The ice cream that they make in house was amazingg, and I personally don’t like ice creams. I would definitely come here again ❤️
