A Wonderful Surprise!✨❤️

We stopped in for lunch without knowing what to expect, but we absolutely loved the experience. The food was absolutely wonderful — fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The staff and the owner were an absolute delight — super helpful, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. We would definitely come back again and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy a really nice meal.

Great food! Awesome vibe, delicious food. First time having hot pot and hot diggity dog I'm hooked! 10/10 recommend!!!

Tried this place for the first time and I wish I had looked online at the menu before trying it! Somewhat small interior but they had plenty of space to sit at tables, they have a pretty big bar space too. I didn’t know until we got there that there wasn’t an AYCE option and you pay for a set amount of whatever meat option you want. There was a small selection but the meat is good with a decent portion. I went with a small and order another medium option and it was plenty for me. They give you unlimited broth, veggies and rice with your meats and they also have a pretty good drink selection, especially the alcohol. It was pretty good, but I prefer AYCE options for hot pot, but our servers were very nice and super helpful!

We’ve been here a couple of times and we absolutely love the food and customer service. I honestly can’t say enough about how amazing the server, Ashley, and the owner (didn’t get her name) were.

Our party was 3 adults and a child. We all ate plenty there and had plenty to take home. The prices are fair, they changed their pricing so that veggies and rice are unlimited. The Tonkansu and Tom Yum broth are my absolute favorite!

They currently have a promo of two free samosas per adult/meal and they are actually good.

This is our favorite shabu shabu and will continue to be back.

I really like this location! While I’m used to going to AYCE, the meat platter was good for two people and filled us both up plenty. I usually eat a lot so I do think you get relatively the same amount of food for a similar price (most AYCE places have a time limit anyway). The meat quality was a lot better than the places in LA that I’ve tried.

If you haven’t had hot pot, this is definitely a great place to start. The service is amazing and they will answer any questions you may have :)

My first time ever going to hot pot last week with my friend and neither of us had any idea what we were doing. Cindy was the only one on shift and had 4 tables and she was handling it like a pro. And she kept the customer service up throughout the whole visit. Once she got staff in(who also had exponential customer service) she came over and explained how to properly cook and make our sauces for the hot pot! She answered all of our questions and checked in on us regularly! And on top of that the food was DELICIOUS! I will be going again and taking as many of my friends as I can! They’re a new business and I highly recommend everyone give it a try! I think this business will thrive!

High Google rating. Low quality food

We came here just because of the high Google rating, but honestly, it was a huge disappointment. We’re not coming back, and we wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

First off, they require each person to order their own hot pot, even if you don’t eat much. The cheapest pot starts at $69, not including drinks or service charge — way off from the $30–$50 per person estimate shown online.

We ordered the cheapest meat set and the seafood set, and the quality was no better than a low-end buffet:
• The meat was cheap frozen slices, all stuck together and hard to separate.
• The seafood was not fresh at all, had a strong fishy smell, like it had been sitting in the freezer for way too long.

In the end, we paid over $170 for two people — almost $85 each — and we still left hungry. And we’re just average eaters, not big appetites.

What’s worse? We were the only customers in the whole restaurant during our visit. The glowing reviews really don’t match the actual experience. This place is a textbook case of a misleading high rating.

Don’t fall for the hype. You’d get a much better deal (and much better food) at pretty much any all-you-can-eat hot pot place nearby.

Summary: Overpriced, overrated, and cheap ingredients. Not worth your time or money.

Takes a little while to get your food at the bar but it tastes really good nice atmosphere and service at the table it’s a little faster at a table than the bar but other wise it’s really good.
