About Rokaru Shabu Shabu

Rokaru Shabu Shabu remains a popular spot on the island for Shabu Shabu, offering a variety of broths including spicy tonkatsu and the highly praised Rokaru broth, which is rich, creamy, buttery, and slightly sweet. Customers continue to enjoy the quality of food and the daily broth specials. There are options for standard all you can eat or premium for an extra $5, making the AYCE menu a great value. The restaurant has expanded to a larger, more open location, creating a spacious and comfortable atmosphere that is perfect for large groups. They feature a vegetable buffet, although some customers have noted that the vegetables may not always be the freshest. Meats, especially the lamb and the tender brisket, are highly recommended, along with delicious appetizers like fried garlic chicken and the arabiki corndog. The restaurant's takeout menu is also varied and popular. While the service is fast and friendly, with staff checking in often, some find the stove height slightly inconvenient. Vegetarian options are available, but those with dietary restrictions might find it a bit challenging. Free parking is a plus, but the restaurant may not be the most kid-friendly or wheelchair accessible. Customers enjoy the overall experience and look forward to returning for more dishes, especially their monthly shabu fix.
