Wild Japanese BBQ & Shabu

Came here to celebrate my grandsons graduation and if you’ve never been you should come at least once. We had a great time. ❤️

Literally the best shabu in SATX! We love this place, the preparation is what makes it awesome. The broth choices are soooo good and the service is super quick. Weve come here so many times since discovering it and will keep coming.

Amazing place to eat .

Really small place food was ok not big options for hot pot (veggie) I wouldn't come back to this place

Confusing menu even if you've been to other similar places. 3 dinner options, but there's a catch! The entire party has to order the same 2 options or pay the up-charge (per person) so it winds up being just as much as the more expensive places. Crowded, busy and loud. Good food and less wait time if you don't mind the other things mentioned.

I brought my son here for his birthday and it was just the two of us. We were excited because we both have never had hot pot or the bbq experience. However I’m very disappointed in how everything was conveyed to us. Our server was nice but he asked us if this was our first time and I said yes we have never done anything like this before. All he really explained to us was how to order from the menu. Other than that, we were handed our plates, a pair of scissors, and tongs, and nothing else was explained to us on how to cook everything, what we should do, just the basics. It was more trial by error but he basically set everything down and pointed at next to us for the buffet and said we could grab whatever we needed from there and our sauces. There was maybe 4-5 other families there and we went during lunch so it really wasn’t like they were outrageously busy or did not have time to kind of explain how things work.. like what do we do with a pair of scissors? I’m just saddened by this because my son and I had never been to a place like this before and I don’t think we’ll be back. I felt like the experience could have been a lot better for spending $75 for two people.

The food is amazing, the menu was a little bit confusing at first.
But these server explained it one thing I didn't agree with is we all had to order the same thing which we opted for $10 more, which was roughly $49 per person. However, we had a 7-year-old with us, and they charged the same thing for the 7-year-old, with no exceptions which i did not understand but we enjoyed our experience.

First time going and it was horribly explained. The soup was served and it was up to you to figure out the silverware and the plates you would use to eat your soup. The dinning setup for anything over 4 people in my opinion was not very well planned out. Also their eating policy about the time frame you need to adhere to or get charged needs to be explained from the beginning and clearly illustrated on their website. I can name a few more things but these were the major ones for me. I don’t know it could just been the server I had.

I've been to many AYCE BBQ restaurants. This one just didn't wow. They did have a nice bar where you can create your own sauce, grab some kimchi, and a few other apps... but nothing really special. The meat wasn't really flavorful nor were there a lot of apps that most BBQ restaurants offer. Price was decent and meat options were plentiful.

We enjoyed our food. The BBQ and hot pot were delicious, not sure I’d go for the sushi. Very nice ambiance and great service as well.

Food was very good, but did not see a waitress for 30-40 minutes. Drinks were not refilled until we were done. Server was friendly when we saw her. Lots of options, no complaints there.

Very good and flavourful food. Be aware you have to cook your own food so if you're with somebody who does not like that sort of thing, be advised. Would go again.
