Kanpai BBQ & Shabu offers a delightful dining experience with both hotpot and Japanese-style BBQ options. The restaurant provides an all-you-can-eat (AYCE) hotpot experience with fresh ingredients, including the delicious wagyu hot pot and lamb. Guests can choose two pot bases and enjoy a variety of side dishes, fruits, drinks, and ice cream for a set price. The environment is clean, and the service is commendable.
For BBQ lovers, Kanpai serves quality meats like chicken cartilage, gizzard, and beef tongue, although the selection of sides is limited. The BBQ section includes self-serve items like multiple ice cream flavors and various drink options. Despite occasional grill issues, the attentive service and unique offerings make it a place worth revisiting.
Customers have praised the restaurant for its good value, wide selection of meats, and helpful staff. Many have noted that the hotpot is the highlight, with the flavorful broths and high-quality ingredients. The included drinks and ice cream are also appreciated. While some have suggested minor improvements to the sauces and side dishes, the overall dining experience at Kanpai BBQ & Shabu is highly recommended.
