this is only the second hot pot restaurant i’ve been to because it’s difficult to find halal ones. luckily, Mumu has a partially halal menu!! not all meat is halal, but a wagyu beef cut, australian chuck and lamb cut are. you can also ask them to sub vegetarian broth. we got the spicy sichuan and tom yum soup bases and both were delicious. the sichuan was genuinely spicy and packed with flavor. they also have a nice DIY sauce/toppings bar, and the vegetable platter that comes with some of the combos is generous! would definitely come back here again and again.

Enjoyed the food, it is my 3rd visit. This time service was not great. Never asked if we need anything else after dropping the hot pot. We enjoyed miso based broth. Meat quality is OK, not great not bad

Okay food POOR service Waited an hour to eat and then asked to leave after 40min of being seated (including ordering and waiting for food to come out) bc they are closing I didn’t get to finish almost half of my food Don’t accept customers if you cannot afford the time to wait until they finish eating the food they ordered

Great hot pot experience with single pots (better for kids who don't like to mix), convenient combos and lots of vegan options. Went with my daughter and had a great time. She kept saying: this is so yummy!

Solid hot pot place. We ordered three different hotpots for the three of us, and honestly it was a bit much. Could have just managed with two. You can either choose from one of their packages or just go Full Ala carte. When we went, there was a bit of weight, but we got a table within 10 minutes. Everybody on the table gets their individual hot pot, which is great. I got the Tom yun base which I loved. The selection of meat is high-quality, and these sides are pretty good as well. They have a separate sauce station where you can mix and match sauces. It is definitely a bit on the higher side in terms of price, but you definitely get a more premium experience. I would be back and bring other friends as well.

The food at Mumu is great. They have amazing vegan and vegetarian options. However we had a very bad experience with the host ( with green hair). Not sure what his name is, but he is the guy with green hair. We originally had a reservation for 5 people but one of our friends cancelled last minute so we became a group of 4 people (including a pregnant lady). We told him that our friend canceled and we were now four but he refused to honor our reservation and made us wait for an additional 45 minutes to seat us. I understand it’s their policy to not allow reservations for parties 4 and below, but sometimes, under unique circumstances, it helps to be kind and reasonable towards others. Specially when there is a woman who is eight months pregnant. He didn’t care for it and was super rude to us. The waiting staff was very sweet to us though. I won’t be going back to this place.

Stopped here for dinner, first time. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good and large portions. We could eat all the food even with sharing. It was busy almost every table was full but you could still talk at your table. Definitely would come back again when in the area.

Parking is a disaster. The visitor garage was packed, we looped all the floors. We were about to give up and eat elsewhere before finding street parking along the condos.
There was no wait around 5:30PM on a Friday. But after we sat down, they were quoting people 20-30 minutes for a table, or they could sit at the bar right away.
The food quality was excellent. I dropped my chopsticks and a server came by with a fresh set immediately which was nice.
If the parking wasn’t so heinous, we would come often. I will say it is a bit noisy, so don’t come here if you want deep conversation.
Parking was very difficult. Food quality was great, though the tom yum soup was a little salty. I probably chugged 4 bottles of water after dinner and was still thirsty after.

I visited this mumu new location and I’m so glad I checked it out! From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The space is clean, modern, and perfect for a cozy meal with friends or family.
We ordered the Signature Set for two and it was incredible. We chose the Tom Yum and Miso broths both were rich, comforting, and full of flavor. The set came with a generous veggie platter, fresh noodles, and two standout meats: the 100% Kurobuta Pork Collar and the Prime Black Angus Beef Short Ribs. Both were incredibly tender and high quality. We also added shrimp, which were fresh and cooked perfectly in the broth.
The sauce bar is huge, with so many ingredients to customize your own perfect dipping sauce it really takes the meal to another level.
For drinks, I had the Passion Fruit Orange Tea, Phoenix Oolong Milk Tea, and a Matcha Smoothie with Milk Foam. Each one was delicious and paired perfectly with the meal refreshing, not too sweet, and full of flavor.
Highly recommend checking out this new location! Amazing food, great service, and a fun atmosphere definitely a new hot spot in San Jose.
