Finally found a hot pot spot in Houston !
Rated everything a 5 star!
I’ve been to many hotpot / shabu spots and this is by far one of my most extremely delicious spot I’ve visited!
Customer service is extremely great, very attentive and satisfying; food and service were quick !
Food choices were excellent on this visit the way the meat was sliced and set also along with one of my favorite side sauces !!
This place is not too big but the set up is really nice! The choices are high table near the bar, booth, tables and the bar all have a set up for your hot pot !
Most definitely my go to spot!

My husband, son, and I recently visited from Alaska and absolutely loved this place! The food was delicious, the service was top-notch, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the different meats. The restaurant was clean, and the prices were great. I hope Houston keeps this gem open—we truly had a wonderful experience!

Barely any seating, meat quality is basic compared to other places like Shabu En, and super expensive. I don’t understand the 4 and 5 star reviews unless people literally haven’t gone to other hot pot places (there are so many better than this one). Seems like the owners wanted to keep prices the same, but downgrade the menu options.

Wow, I was blown away by the quality of the food. The crab and tonkotsu broth is delicious, and all of the veggies/meat is fresh. The fish balls were my favorite thing out of everything, highly recommend trying those. Cucumber salad is good too. However, the servers/service was very unprofessional. Servers were having conversations with each other in front of everyone, often cussing very loudly. Just seemed unprofessional. Food itself is great, service is mediocre.
Excellent. The broths are so flavorful, the cuts were perfect, service is excellent, I will come back again.

Great atmosphere…cozy for date night or family dinner. Great quality meats and sauces at reasonable prices. So happy this restaurant exists because it’s one of our go to spots.

My friends and I used to come at least once a month and were really sad to hear it was going to be converted.. I don’t think it was a business play, but rather a business trying to adapt.
Service and food were as great as ever! Broths were delicious and the meat was a great quality. We all got the tier 2 and ate our weight in bavette, chop flap and fish balls. Vy was a wonderful server and helped us to nail the broths. 10/10.

Extremely expensive and they charge you for everything. A vegetable bowl is almost $6, not even fresh. I just spent $65 a person on a very casual, not all you can eat hot pot..
First time to but really yummy and good

This was the best shabu I've had. The staff were all super friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was also chill and cozy and the food was delicious. This is my new go-to for shabu.

Love the different sauces they have and all the broths.
I used to be a frequent customer because this place has the best broth and best meat in Houston. But since they played a business game (say that they will permanently close on March 9 and resume), I kinda feel weird. I came back today and do tier S. No longer free appertizer (my salmon spoon), premium beef is limited to one, beef zabuton (out), kuri (out), salmon (they told me out first, then recheck and say available, I am about to walk out), veggies is already limited. Now they have even limited veggie. I have been seating there about 2 hours, no other than our table. The owner should consider to fix the menu again. I ordered the top tier and 3/6 is not available and 1 is limited. Then, they charge for a full price is not very nice. Never in my life coming back to my favorite restaurant.
