Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

1/30/2026 = 6:30PM = 4 Star = Food is Geat , server are verygood too , some chair need upgrade , the line to get sa sauce is so long , I just didn't bother to go inline coz you have only 90min dine in, they should put double on everything so it will not have a long line. May be its good when it's not busy . The cook top don't have an exhaust fan, that's why all the smell of food will smell on your clothes, maybe will still try it again .

Sunday dinner with the cousins! We decided on shabu because it was perfect for the cold weather. Parking: This spot is located in a high foot traffic plaza. Finding a parking spot is going to be difficult. Good luck! Ambiance/Environment: They have a large space with plenty of indoor seating. It was extremely busy on Sunday night. The amount of people felt overwhelming and crowded. Wait times can be longer, especially for a large group like our’s. They have a buffet for sides and a station for sauces. Everything was kept clean and filled despite how busy it was. Love the music; if you’re a millennial baby, then you’ll appreciate the throwbacks. Service: I joined the waitlist on Yelp and was quoted a 41-62 minute wait. I was able to see my place in line through Yelp, and they also texted me updates. When my cousins and I arrived, we waited about 5 minutes then our table was ready. The host escorted us to a table outside. Thankfully there are heaters outside. Each server was quick & efficient. We were checked on a few times, but it can be difficult to wave a server down since it was so busy. Food: I chose Sukiyaki broth. It was really good and not too salty. You’d order meats through your server. I really like the lean cuts! The fattier cuts were also mouthwatering. The vegetables and other toppings were fresh. Pricing: There is a 1.5 hour dining limit. Any excessive leftovers will be charged. We enjoyed everything and will definitely be back! My only critique is to keep the training off the floor and away from customers, especially while they’re trying to enjoy a meal. We prefer not to hear restaurant talk right behind us.

I joined the waitlist through yelp. It had no options for outdoor or indoor dining. Got a text saying table was ready and it wasn’t. Waited an additional 30mins. Host sat me outside and it was freezing. I told him I rather sit inside and he replied you should have chosen that option. I told him there was no option and he replied well next time do it. Extremely rude staff and these 2 hosts were just standing there laughing trying to be low key about it. They kept seating people about 5 tables before me. I heard about 3 more families complaining about being seated outside. Food was ehh like a 5/10. I can’t believe they hire people who are this rude. Waited almost an hour to get seated!
