A very nice shabu place that you can go alone and they have special menu for 1 and 2 person. It's super worth it! The set comes with house sake as well which I think is very nice and strong. The shabu is very delicious. I ordered extra side dishes but only the set will make me full. The meat is tender. They give you appropriate veggies and noodles. Lovely service. Parking lot is free, which is a plus in Pasadena.

Fantastic first-time shabu-shabu experienceThis was our first visit to Oseyo Shabu-Shabu, and the service was excellent. Our waiter was so kind and patient, walking us through how everything works. We’re pretty sure we didn’t pay close enough attention and messed up a bit—but that’s on us!Even with our fumbles, everything tasted awesome: flavorful broth, fresh meats and veggies, and lots of fun, hands-on cooking. The restaurant was quiet enough for easy conversation, so it almost felt like a relaxed cooking class—in the best way.We’re excited to go back and try again now that we know the flow. Highly recommend for a low-key date night or a small group that wants to chat and cook together.Summary: Excellent, patient service; quiet, conversation-friendly vibe; delicious even when we goofed; can’t wait to return.

❄️ Cozy little hot pot spot in Pasadena! Came for weekend lunch — busy but worth it. 🍲 Miso broth was super flavorful (try the spicy one if you like heat!). My kid loved the tomato broth — surprisingly rich and tasty. 🥩 Great meat options — multiple cuts of beef, plus lamb, chicken & seafood. Each set comes with rice + a big veggie plate 🥬🍄🥕🍠🍜
Perfect for chilly days — warm, delicious & great value! 💯

Went to check out Oseyo in Pasadena over the weekend and had such a great experience! Super satisfying and definitely a spot I’d recommend for shabu shabu lovers.
Ordering is simple – each set comes with broth, a veggie platter, udon, and rice. We chose the kombu broth, which was light and perfect for highlighting the meat. The dipping sauces were Ponzu (refreshing and tangy) and Goma (nutty, sesame-peanut flavor) – both were great and not heavy at all. I also really liked that they use a full-sized hotpot instead of those tiny individual ones, makes it feel much more like a real hotpot meal.
For meats: • The Certified All Natural Angus Prime Beef with fish cake and Australian lamb – lamb was tender without any gaminess, and the fish cake soaked up the broth really well. • The Certified All Natural Vintage Prime Rib Eye plus an extra Choice Rib Eye – rich marbling, super flavorful, very satisfying!
We also got two appetizers: Garlic Edamame (so addictive!) and Takoyaki (crispy outside, with bits of octopus inside – best when eaten hot).
The staff were really friendly and attentive. By lunchtime the place was nearly full, so there’s definitely a nice lively vibe. Overall, the ingredients were fresh, the service was great, and finishing the meal with udon noodles in the broth was the perfect ending.

A nice shabu shabu place with fresh ingredients and good quality meat. The entree combos come with a choice of protein, plus vegetables and noodles. You can also order items a la carte. The dipping sauces are really delicious, and you can add toppings like garlic and green onions to enhance the flavor. Staff are very friendly and the interior is clean.

Great hot pot spot in Pasadena! Came during Happy Hour and got the Angus Beef and Australian Lamb sets, both came with plenty of meat, veggies, udon, and rice, super filling and fresh. Also tried the Salmon Roll, Bay Scallop Roll, Karubi, and a sashimi platter — all delicious and fresh. Excellent value and tasty food — will definitely be back!

I’ve been here before, but this is the first time bringing the kids. I didn’t expect them to like it so much — cooking the meat felt like playing a game. We ordered the seafood and meat platter, and I recommend the sukiyaki broth. Its sweet flavor was a big hit with the kids. It has protein, vegetables, and carbs — a well-balanced meal.
10/10 always! Honestly, I’m usually not a huge fan of shabu shabu because I often find it a bit too bland. But ever since I tried O’seyo, my husband and I keep coming back again and again! Their broth and high-quality, healthy cuts of beef are absolutely irresistible. Truly a hidden gem in Pasadena! ✨ Atmosphere & Service The place is super clean, cozy, and welcoming. Parking is easy, and the staff always greet you with warm smiles. They constantly check in to make sure you’re taken care of, and they’re more than happy to switch your broth if you’re not satisfied. ✨ Must-Try Recommendations 🥩 Vintage Prime Beef – beautiful marbling, melts in your mouth! 🍲 Tomato broth – my #1 pick! The Spicy Miso broth isn’t really spicy but has a mild, savory taste. 🍹 Happy Hour deals – great value!
The beef here is truly special – no matter which cut you order, it stays tender and juicy even after a few minutes in the pot. The broth is flavorful enough on its own, but dipping sauces take it to the next level. I especially loved the sesame sauce with crushed sesame seeds on top – so fragrant! ✨ Great for everyone This spot is perfect for date nights, small gatherings, or even dining solo (I saw several people enjoying hotpot on their own). They also have lunch specials and weekday deals that are very affordable. ✨ Our Favorites (ranked) 🥩 Australian Lamb 🥩 Certified All Natural Vintage Prime Rib Eye 🥩 Certified All Natural Angus Prime Beef 🥩 Certified All Natural Choice Rib Eye 🍓 For dessert: Strawberry Mochi ice cream – the perfect sweet ending! ✨ Broth Ranking: Tomato > Spicy Miso > Spicy Tomato. I personally didn’t like Konbu (too plain) and Sukiyaki (too sweet), but the staff happily switched broths when I asked. Overall, one of the BEST shabu shabu spots in LA. Affordable, consistent, and always an amazing experience! Highly recommended!

Food was good. Portion felt right for me. Ordered the regular size kalbi beef slice. I had told the server to remove the udon since I didn't want it, but I guess the server didn't relay it to kitchen staff. I gave the udon to my friends anyway. I think the pot was too big and too high. Or they can get a shorter pot that would be nice like what they use at Momo Paradise. Or maybe invest in electric stoves that are built into the table for a flat surface so the pot won't feel that high. They also don't put a lot of broth into it so it looks like there isn't much soup.

Great Japanese hot pot! Tender beef with egg dip was perfect. Set includes rice, udon, and veggies. Loved the crispy soft-shell crab and octopus legs. Ended with light strawberry mochi and matcha ice cream. Good service, fair price. Will come again!
